Fans got excited only to be thrown right back down to earth
Any hopes from Street Fighter 6 fans that throw loops had been removed from the game have been dashed with news that they are still very much in the game.
The confusion came from a player who is at Gamescom and tried out the Terry build of Street Fighter 6 available there and reported that it seemed that throw loops had been nerfed in the game. He even shared a video showing the impossibility of throw loops in the game.
Fans responded with much excitement as the expectation was that perhaps a mid season patch was on the way.
Unfortunately, the person who initially reported on the lack of throw loops walked back his story explaining that it was simply really hard to do on pad.
Fans have either been outraged or have taken it in stride with Phenom, the Norwegian player, stating that maybe the excitement from fans at the prospect of no throw loops would cause Capcom to actually do something about it.
Somehow we think that will not be the case.
