Which fighting game command style do you like better?

RAINBOW PONY · Sep 28, 2006

Option A : Large, inconsistent and breaks up text.
:downb:

Option B : Same size as text, meshes with other emoticons.

Option A, the large one, is much larger than existing emoticons, and some, like the Down arrow, breaks up the text above it due to it's size.

Also, the width of the arrows are inconsistent. (See down-back and half circle. Twice as big)

Option B also has Punch and Kick emoticons for Capcom games.

RAINBOW PONY · Sep 28, 2006

Here are some others :

A: :360:

B:

B style also has Charge moves and Punch/Kick, all the same height so a command move will look like an actual sequence :

From strictly a design standpoint, nothing to do with liking or disliking what they did here, B looks cleaner.

Murray · Sep 28, 2006

I find A to be vastly easier to read and fuck a bunch of Capcom.

EVIL NICK · Sep 28, 2006

B looks better, think if you want to write down a movelist ( or comboes, etc ) :

Burning Wave: :qcf:

or

Crack Shoot: :qcb:

or

Rising Tackle: :down:

or

Burning Kunckle: :qcb:

or

Power Geyser: :qcb:

or

It looks so broken, call me a perfectionist , but the down arrow really bothers me... >_<

A.) The little ones of example 'B' are too small to see clearly. I'd rather use regular typing as we've been doing, than that tiny crap.

B.) Fuck that lame ass punch/kick garbage. A, B, C, and D is all you need. This isn't Gamepro fucking magazine.

C.) "Large, inconsistent and breaks up text"? Welcome back, LWK. Where have you been?

You are right about that, it does read better. I think if B was tuned just a bit it wouldn't look as horsey. The issue of them lining up doesn't get me as much.

Either way they both are cool to have. :qcf:

I'm just happy peoples sigs will start having ridiculous combos that only ninjas could pull off.

RAINBOW PONY · Sep 28, 2006

You are right, the bigger the better.

LoneSage · Sep 28, 2006

Option A is easier on the eyes.

OK, try to put in tag button on KOF XI then...

Mawdsley · Sep 29, 2006

Dark Andy, your icons are pretty much unreadable at my resolution (1920x1200) and the whole white background on a black/dark blue forum thing, wtf?!?

QPUQERPIUQOPIU

E is not tag in KOF XI

E is "Blown Off"

Just make it 'E' so that way the move list is compatable with Samurai Spirits Tenkaichi Kenkakuten and other AtomisWave games.

F4U57 · Sep 29, 2006

A

More polished.

cannonball · Sep 29, 2006

Most definitely option A. Much easier to read.

Xian Xi · Sep 29, 2006

not to be a dick but the ones I always liked were the ones on the shoryuken forums when I used to post on there long ago.

Agreed.

I just saw them yesterday, and those blow both these options away.

Shoryuken.com emoticons > Neo-geo.com emoticons

...Bigger, Badder, Better/crapcom can suck it.

You do realize that both options are Capcom, right?

SNK does not make commands like these, they have always printed every direction press for their moves.

Magnaflux · Sep 29, 2006

Those small ones look like doo doo and are hard to look at, especially on a dark background.

themisterfalcon · Sep 29, 2006

A bunch of our emoticons already break up the text. I will use lorem ipsum text to demonstrate.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Ut pede. Fusce a leo. Aliquam nec purus sed ipsum iaculis hendrerit. Suspendisse viverra porttitor eros. Maecenas vel mauris. Donec cursus orci sit amet elit. Pellentesque convallis convallis velit. Integer vestibulum orci in ligula. Ut eleifend bibendum urna. Morbi dapibus. Integer tincidunt ornare ligula. Morbi quam. Nulla facilisi. Vestibulum erat elit, dignissim at, auctor ut, vulputate quis, justo. Cras vestibulum.

So I think that argument is void, as we would have to lose the Buttrock icon...which obviously rules.

That emoticon annoys me.

Also, it's not just about breaking text above it, all of the commands are different sizes.

:back:

PS: Did you see the one I made in the other topic? Does it look better?

This one :

soulthug · Sep 29, 2006

The pink circle is the roker, and jro is on the end of the "arrow" but isn't visible.

I'm working on a new range of fighting emoticons too, feedback appreciated guys

LOL!
Soul, no need to tell everyone what your controller you're using.
