I think for GG he would get grounded leg intangibility on that move.

Do one for counterstrike. Worst hitboxes and bullet spray of any fps ever.

So the skull girls have tight boxes?

This might be one of the nerdiest things I've seen on imgur.

Smash 4 has some weird hitboxes. For example, Ryu's Up-Air is so huge that it beats Cloud and Bowser's Down-Air cleanly.

Excuse me, is this a fighting game meme on MY front page?

And then there's the Overwatch Hitboxes and Hanzo gets a headshot by shooting you in the leg.

9 years ago | Likes 14 Dislikes 1

Nah it's just a bigass box.

Then there's smash 4's knockback

I've never had issues with collision mechanics in Smash Brothers. What's the beef here?

Bless you Guilty Gear Series: Most accurate and Balanced of Fighting Games.

You think Dark Souls is bad, try TF2 where each projectile type and class have different and incorrect hitboxes

9 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 3

Smash Brothers collision detections aren't arbitrary, they're just calculated in 3D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWO6iDefd-g

Sf crossups are bullshit

Dark souls 1 and 3 are hard because of the game 2 was hard because of the PvP.

That GODDAMN hipchecking fish bastard

I keep seeing this and I am convinced that the person who made it is just bad at MH and Dark Souls.

Cs hitboxes are non-existent

So Skullgirls is that good, huh?

9 years ago | Likes 106 Dislikes 2

Yeah, if you liked marvel, Skullgirls is that done correctly.

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Skullgirls is fantastic.

9 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Yes, hell yes it is. Varried characters and pretty decent balance.

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I pledged 50$ to the kickstarter, only to remember I suck at this kind of game the moment I fired it up.

yea

The hitbox recognition gets insane.

9 years ago | Likes 110 Dislikes 0

It's 2D, precise collision detection is trivial.

9 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

I assumed this was an analysis of silly walks. The Ministry does such analysis.

I've yet to play Dark Souls for this very reason. Had it sitting there waiting for years and can't pull the trigger on playing it.

9 years ago | Likes 9 Dislikes 13

You realise this is not an accurate representation? Haha

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 1

It all boils down to connection.

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

The hitboxes are ridiculously tight on three, it's just a fast-paced game. The entire series is fair, if nothing else

9 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 1

Do it. I waited, like you, and just got into it about a month ago. Stop depriving yourself. Is amazing. And now...YOU DIED.

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

I'm playing Oddworld again. Don't have time for much else.

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 3

Looks like I've upset a hardcore fan base for having never played something. I've only seen gifs of it on here with people dying repeatedly.

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I was amazed at how many people still play...there's a covenant that forces PvP when you wear the ring, and invasions are constant. Do IIIT!

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I have no frame of reference for what any of that means but I'll see if it's backward compatible on the Xboner. I got rid of my 360.

Rainbow 6 hitbox?

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Need a gif showing the hit boxes running after the player. Going against players with 100+ ping is fun.

So what are the blue squares?

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 1

red = hitboxes, blue = hurtboxes.

9 years ago | Likes 38 Dislikes 1

nice

9 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 1

Blue is the hotbox of what you're fighting and red is how far away you can or will be before getting hit by your attacker

9 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

Fuck my fingers for typing hotbox

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Blue is where you can get hurt, red is where you can hurt the other dude

9 years ago | Likes 25 Dislikes 4

Fucking seriously for Monster Hunter, I'm no where the fucker most of the time and still get hit

9 years ago | Likes 270 Dislikes 0

Strangely my experience has been the opposite, like rolling under a tigrex's arm pit during a swipe with 9/10 success

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 1

The Plesioth's hip check is notoriously unfair. It is an older monster, so its hit boxes aren't super well designed.

9 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

I thought it was just a call back to the bad hit box the plessie had since forever. All other monsters hit boxes are almost pixel perfect.

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Capcom just really didn't it to be a sad fish dragon, so they had to give it the biggest hitbox of all

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

u mud?

Your comment single handedly clarified for me what the red and blue boxed meant. Thanks.

The blue body red foot didn't make it obvious?

Gotta say I am with him

9 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 1

In MHFU, the Plesioths hit box for the tackle is actually beginning BEHIND him. Like... what the f**k

9 years ago | Likes 25 Dislikes 0

Fuckin' plesioth, man.

9 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Still less life than black Gravios and slower than Black Diablos while... |Rajang|.

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I've seen veteran players rage quit on plesioth, cause their size scales linearly but their hitbox scales cubed.×1.25. It's a bitch. 1/2

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

And their body checks can hit you when you are off to the side and out of range aswell.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Watch out for hip check

Still playing mhfu and on Nekohts quests, the only ones i've not done involve plessie. And i dont think ill ever bother.

9 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

i had the original MH ofline. used to farm plessie for giant husks to kill rathian/los. just gotta knock em sideways. and hide between legs

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

All the other monsters are pretty damn on point with their hitboxes, but HOLY SHIT fuck those plesioths!

9 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Its due to using the same engine since the first one. New monsters are fine, rathilos is the worst. New game is on a new engin so...

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Try monsterhunter online, hit boxes are actually quite nice, and english patch just rereleased

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Oh hell yeah! Is there controller support

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Yup! I have not tried it yet though so can't tell you if it's wonky or not, but mouse and keyboard is quite nice to play

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

No Tekken?

9 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

My thoughts exactly

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

ikr probably the best fg out rn

9 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 3

True that. SFV is cool, but tekken 7 beats it. I miss a current gen soul caliber

9 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

I haven't played soul caliber in ages, last one i played was on XBOX and spawn was on there.

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I still want that version, because I love Spawn.

hopefully we get one next since its the ani

Would be nice. I always had a lot of fun with character creation.

Say what you will but the hitboxes in DS3 are ridiculously fucking accurate.

9 years ago | Likes 112 Dislikes 7

It's not quite the hitbox's fault but when phantom range is so common people have to roll for attacks that should miss...

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

It's still got shoddy netcode and I think the Red Phantom in the image is referring to that.

9 years ago | Likes 16 Dislikes 2

what you will

Apart from in pvp due to latency.

9 years ago | Likes 16 Dislikes 0

Yeah, but latency is a different issue that hitboxes. I do agree, teleporting phantoms are a pain in the ass and really unfair.

9 years ago | Likes 9 Dislikes 0

Turns out wearing bulky armour raises your arms and the animation shifts. Hitbox still fits the weird animation perfectly
