Why the fuck is the game so fucking hard? I'm playing on normal and I feel like I'm playing as a fucking cripple. Axel is slow, has no fucking reach, can't dash, and his only choice for a reversal is a shitty AoE that barely has any range and it costs you health. I'm trying to reversal against this cop bitch's grenades but I still get hit by them even when doing the AoE. How the fuck are there three difficulty levels above this?

Your first mistake is playing Axel. He is bad. Play anyone else. If you want to play as Good Axel then play Adam.

Unironically git gud, it's a matter of practice

for whatever reason there's only one character that can run. the game is not really that hard but some bosses are kind of annoying.

So you're telling me I'm having a bad time because I picked a bad character? Who's good? Why don't they fucking fix Axel?

You don't need to run. It's just Axel is a lardass with nothing else to make up for it, unlike Floyd
I don't know, maybe they thought it'd be funny to make him shit when he was godlike in 2. Just pick anyone but Axel.

I beat this with a buddy in one sittning this game was a joke but it was still fun.
If you can’t beat it you really need to git gud...

You're exagerating, Axel is not that bad

>some bosses are kind of annoying.
How do I beat Commissioner Gordon and his magic super armored magnet command grabs that can even snatch you out of the air. I got past him, but I feel like it was pure luck.

Screening. Up down. Read your threats.

I mean any character can win, but I don't even know what his real advantages over other characters are. He'd have damage going for him if others couldn't juggle against the wall for equivalent damage

Axel is tough to play.
You can grab grenades out of the air with the item button.
You get used to the game the more you play. dont worry.

what

Get gud

Don't play by yourself

Learning the quirks of enemies and what not to do makes a world of difference.

Commish is the biggest filter in the game and he comes as early as stage 2, so it's normal that you struggled. There's no real secret besides practice and reading him as fast as possible so you can deal with the grabs. Keep in mind though, jumping has i-frames

>the game is easy if you just have friends

That would have been useful to know. Axel also has kind of a dropkick follow up if you hold down in the air while attacking. The little manual they give you leaves a lot out.

That's why we're thankful for streets of rage autists and Beat them all enthusiasts out there

Sorry you can’t get a co-op buddy. If you are able to find a partner your dick will get harder.

Game was pretty fun. I don't know why Zig Forums constantly shat on it for months.

They did?

I've started playing this a few days ago in the hardest difficulty level available and it honestly felt easy after spending a few days before that finishing SoR2. I'm playing as Cherry and I'm only half way through the game tho.

Did you miss everyone calling it a shitty flash game? Not to mention you know who seething about the amount of melanin involved

New Final Fight when, Capcom?

put the monkey's paw away

>game easily sold a million
>no dlc content or free content updates
WHEN IS MY SEXY COP LADY BECOMING PLAYABLE

Stay at a distance and move out of the way of his attacks, then quickly punish, but do not commit to anything. Back off quickly. Respect this guy on everything he does. Do not try to get extra damage in ever. He will fuck you up. Respect him.

I thought for sure she'd be an unlockable. Also they can't do DLC because apparently they're still fixing game breaking bugs.

>Axel
He really is that bad in this. He requires more effort than the rest of the cast. So not only git gud, git gudder

>they're still fixing game breaking bugs.
How? I never had any issues on multiple playthroughs.

People on Windows XP or something? I don't know. They did something that caused a bunch of saves to get erased but rolled it back with a special dev branch if you were affected.
