I need to point out that everyone used polearms. Like all around the world. Weapon diversity wasn't really a think in warfare. Sure the exact shape of the metal at the end of your long stick would change from place to place, but it was always a long stick with metal at the end. Swords were mostly side arms in armed conflict or a personal weapon but not really the most important thing is warfare. So it didn't go from diverse weapons to gun, ir went from some kind of spear to some kind of gun. Also samurai were archers and spearmen. The katana wasna side arm or a status symbol never a primary weapon. Although there is a bit of a difference with mercenary bands and shit the weapon everyone wanted to use for war was a spear of some kind.

Well, the reality of why polearms were common is solely because every region realized that polearms were cheap to make and rather easy to wield without any training. The diversity in weaponry never came from the weapon types used and boiled more down to how they used those weapons in combat. Similar with the gun as to the spear, it may not have been as cheap, but rifles, from their root, were designed to be used by nearly anyone without the years of training that a martial weapon art would require. A rifle or pistol is equivalent to your spear from the old world as they are used in much the same manner. A sniper rifle is a much more specialized form and require much more practice and training to use reliably on the field, in comparison, and can be equated to longbowmen or archers. Your artillery in the modern day is like a catapult or ballista. In terms of diversity, someone having a m4/AK/SCAR is equivalent to spearmen wielding things like javelins/halberds/wing spears.

I always thought Fox had a very interesting design as a "gun" character. The way his shots cause no stagger or knockback and literally only serve as SSB's equivalent to chip damage and have the tradeoff of being extremely forgiving in frames and recovery and projectile speed. It's almost like the extreme opposite end of how most guns function in other games and I always thought it was such an interesting and unique design for a fighting game "projectile based" character.

I think Brawl does Blasters correctly. I've joked before about blasters having the range of 2 subway sandwiches, which in all honesty, isn't half wrong. Blaster's range isn't too far to where they are unpunishable, but still have a good enough range to be a "gun" type of weapon. But there are definitely some other fighting games with gun weapons that don't execute it right.

guns in fighting games truly depend on the variability of situations. a gun may be incredibly oppressive to one opponent, whilst the very next match a lower skill player can aggress and make the gun hard to impossible to use. i cant tell if i explained that well, but im just trying to say that making fighting a gun as consistent as a normal brawler or sword fighting character is a main focus of a fun weapon in my opinion. also, really hoping you get lucky with subs and stuff soon. you are a top 3 creator of mine, keep up these analytical type videos. very nice to have a creator pick apart fighting game tropes, and also be big into brawl. keep it up, man

The timeframe this game came out was also the release of DNF Duel and released with 4 gun characters in their 16 character roster. Each of them play wildly differently. We can start with hitman who uses an SMG. His bullets only hit on the muzzle flash with most attacks having his sword as the primary focus and even out ranges his SMG in various chains and moves. He plays almost like a dante focused on his blade, but the gun does help break some of the armored moves in the game. Trouble Shooter carries a shotgun and an explosive blade and a contact nade. He is oppressive with large area attacks with long reloads that can be dodged and weaved through if the TS just spams them. So his goal is to make traps and the battlefield as hostile as possible for those wanting to get in with the threat of a 12 gauge and explosives always something they have to overcome. Launcher is your arsenal wielding character, she has a weapon for every situation from short range pistols, flame throwers, AMRs, launchers, and more. IF you want explosives she has them and takes the place of queen zoner because of that. This doesn't leave her pressure without flaws as her weapons do struggle up close and the roll mechanic can be the perfect tool to get in. Lastly there is Ranger, your cowboy Gun kata marksman. Where other flood the field he takes pop shots with aim. Most notably he is the inverse of launcher in terms of gun mechanics. His pistols shoot full screen but dont do that much damage but will gladly chip a foe down if they let you. But once you get closer he can show his true colors show as he switches between fancy shooting and martial prowess. So if this sounds interesting, look into DNF duel gameplay and see how they demonstrated these 4 common archetypes for gun users.

@@LeFisheboi So going over some DNF Duel mechanics; The game functions with white damage and red damage. Most attacks do mainly white damage while mana attacks do red damage and cash out white damage. The game also uses a guard meter and has an offensive roll to get in. So you don't get chipped out as white damage will heal off if you don't get hit. That being said Ranger is interesting because out of all his tools, he has no overhead strike. Every move is either a mid, and 2 moves are a low. His moves also don't function well at full screen, he excels around half screen where he can't get poked but still keep you in range of his specials. White chip is nice but if you can never confirm it, then what is the point since it will just be healed off. His farthest mana moves are 5M and 6M, one fires an easy to block volley and the other is a leap forward asking you to get punished. Launcher however... She will ruin your day if you don't know what is safe to roll or jump. In comparison to Ranger she does a LOT of white damage, her specials do cover full screen and she has great guard breaking tools.

This is where Vanguard gets dangerous, as his spear(?) has a large amount of range and hits like a truck. Attacking from above him is especially risky as he can grab you and hit you multiple times afterwards as well. So yes, while you could do that with Ranger, I'd say your best bet would be to play as a character like Hitman or Trouble Shooter

i think a great example of a character with guns is erron black in mk11. he has a rifle stance that makes him automatically walk forward (when he’s not firing) so he can’t just sit back or delay shots to zone ppl out. the bullets hit high so they can be ducked, but hit instantly so it’s still useful for mid to long range. the rifle stance actually has melee options as well, where he gets to launch or stagger you with gun butts. he also gets a krushing blow when the gun’s empty(that grants him a new combo starter), so it adds an interesting dynamic where you can sacrifice your zoning to have a more threatening/damaging close-mid range hit confirm

Zoners risk nothing and that adds to their smug demeanor, what I recommend is giving them a certain number of bullets and once that runs out than they have to get involved and do some combos. Give them a reload animation, akin to Sin Kiske's food gimmick that slows the match down for them for a second. Sin players have to worry about being rushed after the meat gimmick, give the gunners zoners that same fear, or you could Gun Fu approach of Noel and The Ranger from the New DNF Duel game.

Mr. Satan (Dragon Ball Z Ultimate Battle 22) had a rocket launcher. Fang the Sniper (Sonic the Fighters) had a cork gun, while Neinhalt Seiger (Samurai Shodown 2) had an arm cannon that shot fire. Godhand (Erhgeiz) and Mega Man (MvC) had arm cannons. While his regular fighting style used stuff like eye lasers, Fulgore (Killer Instinct) had a gun-based finisher.

I think the best way to incorporate guns is to give someone a reason for using them. Not like a backstory, but because they need that advantage in a fight. Make their aim bad but everything uses a gun kinda like Elphelt or Hitman/Ranger. Make aim the reason why they have lights, mediums, and heavies, with distance determining how much knockback/hitstun is dealt thus creating a very technical character you need to practice with. Almost like how you do really need to practice with guns to be good, but here for fighting game balance compared to grapplers.

Well guns are too op for games so they make them shit and fair for melee users. Also in some if not many strategy games you see sword units or any melee units that simply counter spearmen. The spear was and still is the best weapon to use in melee combat against most foes that are not heavily armored. For example you can do mock battles with some cheap ass toys and see which oponent deals the decisive blow. It takes more skill and practice to use shitty weapons than to choose the best one and focus on it. Also good against cavalry by default. Spartans knew that the best,not only were they the elite of elite but they also used spears,carried swords too but that's in worst case scenario. Romans used swords just for that also,not slashing but stabbing the shit out of enemies. Many cases such as alexander the phalanx enthusiast exploiting pikes to conquer shit show that the spear or the longer version are the ultimate melee weapons. I say melee because a bow or crossbow is enough to delete you let alone fucking guns or explosives or some atoms that were split and made giant mushroom clouds.

One of my favorite gunmen in fighters was Vermillion from Battle Arena Toshinden series. Dude had a pistol and shotgun and his Overdrive up close could kill you. What made him fair was his walk speed. We're talking abysmally apocalypticly slow. Like 1 step every 3 seconds and they were baby steps at that.

Ig a way to implement guns in a fighting game is to make so they go hand to hand with the lore. You make so you have an advanced type of technology wich makes strogn guns, but, the issue is that more far the projectile goes, the least damage it does, this because it's a flaw of the wepons, but are still more powerfull than base guns because now everyone have some type of skill, resistance or strength that makes basic guns useless, so this special guns were made so they can damage those ppl

I like the risk and reward you get with a good gun character. The reward is forcing opponents to basically run into you're shots with enough read making it insanely difficult to get in. The risk is if they do get in most gun characters have pathetic close range and life as well. Naoto from P4Arena series is a great example as she not only has guns but traps as well. She also can instant kill if you are hit enough but the trade of is her abysmal reversal and having the smallest life bar in the game. Gun characters are the zoners cooler brother as they don't always feel like a slog to fight like some zoners can be.

Guns are so important in fighting games. The concept of zoning becomes more palatable through a character with a gun. Guns also introduce interesting zoning fundamentals. For example, guns can have slow startup, short active frames, slow recovery and cover fullscreen. Sounds complicated but the bullet projectile is truly a genius concept. Its much more modern than the "fireball" or "laser". I do think they are hard to balance. Gun characters are sometimes given too much advantage because they're gun and bullets are not considered part of their character hurtbox wise. You should be able to punish characters for "shooting" you even though it isn't realistic.

The thing about this is that how the guns are used matter a lot. If they're the main focus of the character and he just gets to fire at will, you'll probably end up with an NRS syndrome. However, if you incorporate it to a character's kit as a small part of it or with actual drawbacks, then it's OK. Elphet, Noel, Sion, Powered Ciel, Dante and even Whip (She actually has a Desert Eagle for some unholy reason) are some great examples of how you can incorporate guns into your fighting game in many different scales of relevance to the kit of your character without ever making it oppressive.

elphelt from ggXrd is one of my favorite characters to play in Xrd because she’s got badass guns and she doesn’t play like a zoner like happy chaos in gg strive does, she can play fast and aggressive. never played blazblue but when i do i think i might end up liking noel too for the same reasons as elphelt. guns should be in fighting games, but they need to be more than just zoning tools. is everyone who uses martial arts a shoto? is everyone who uses a sword a footsies based character? i see no reason why guns shouldn’t be treated in the same way if we’ve already developed characters like noel and elphelt that can use guns aggressively this doesn’t mean that we should kill all gun based zoners obviously, like i do like playing keepaway with characters like naoto in P4U2/P4AU occasionally (even tho naoto isn’t a zoner she’s more like a setup character but semantics) but having every gun based character be a zoner is a little boring

There’s a game on Roblox called Anime Battle Arena, where they handle guns somewhat well. (in this game, every character usually have 4 moves, with atleast a gaurdbreak and combo extender. Also they have an awakening, which heals you and gives a new, usually more powerful moveset) In the game, they have, anime characters. There are two that immediately to mind. Young joseph (from JJBA) and Kiritsugu (from fate) Young Joesph has a tommy gun, which does a nice bit of damage and combo extends. Kiristugu fucking has a pistol that gaurd breaks, disables the guy’s moveset, and can combo extend if you do it in the air. Bro also have a Machine gun, which is similar to Joseph’s tommy gun, but doesn’t combo extend. AND HIS AWAKENING ALSO GIVES HIM A DRONE STRIKE AND A FUCKING ROCKET LAUNCHER. despite all this, Young Joseph is still better than kiritsugu lel. Also you forgot hol horse from Jojo’s bizarre adventure, Heritage for the future.

I think this video explained it pretty well how guns must have a specific kind of design to fit in. Like in the ones you mentioned, they fit right in with the other characters and how the Guilty Gear one is punishable yet strong where you must balance its use. I can't recall games I know where guns in general are too broken but I know general games where some projectiles are just unfair among the rest of them.

Cervantes is my favorite example of a gun user because of his series. Soulcalibur takes place in the 1400’s. Guns were not only rare for people to just have, they also vastly outclassed swords still. Mitsurugi’s first plot was learning to try to beat guns because he felt all his amazing training and talent would fade away from usefulness. A gun from this era is captured perfectly in this game; 1. It’s on a pirate so it fits that the sea brigand would play for keeps instead of honor 2. It’s unblockable, because yeah try blocking bullets with nunchucks. 3. It’s slow and not very dps heavy because this was still before guns became real portable genocide machines so it can straight up be a gun with no nerfs to what makes it a gun and be balanced because it’s one shot (outside of combos) and 4. It’s in soulcalibur. Like I said yes guns are incredible strong in series as even one of its strongest characters lost to a rifleman. But also mitsurugi would be shown not just beating guns, but beating *multiple guns. With no cover. Due to charging at them head on. ON THE OCEAN JUMPING BETWEEN BOATS.* a gun is very dangerous but the cast are so powerful that Cervantes’ soul edge powers are what make him a character capable of fighting anyone, the gun is scary yes, but these characters are well trained enough to be able to dodge the fire, just like how a player will in game.

My preferred gun character is not from a fighting game: it's the gunlance from monster hunter. This weapon is a gigantic revolver cannon with a bayonet or other pointy object/blade at the end paired with the (second) best shield in the game. The weapon itself has the best range in the game if you don't count projectile based weapons and it hits like a freight train. Additionally you have a slightly weaker version of the lance shield, making you almost immune against most hits. The main drawback it has is it's mobility: while most weapons have a bunch of attacks to close the gap or at least can easily combo into it the gunlance has just one and it is not very good. Additionally where most weapons have a dodge roll the gunlance gets a pathetic side step that is practically useless. This is the closest you can get to being a human tank without literally being one.
