Ragequitting in this game is still rampant... Something must be done. Also, I swear Honda is f*cking broken in this version.
Good lawd, I was like 45-50 pages behind on this thread for not checking it for only a day and a half! I used to be anti-SP Assist, but after using it a bit, I realized that you can't play the characters in this game to their fullest potential without it. Certain combos aren't possible with it, and some can't be done without it. I can get matches over 3G only by playing single player and then turning the Request option on. If I try to find a match, it just cycles forever. After messing with Viper a bit, I somewhat disagree with this. Her standing kick is a fantastic move and I get the sense that a lot of her other normals are meant to be chained into her specials/Super/Ultra. If you try to use them on their own, then yeah they suck. If someone makes the video, I'll do the music. But it probably needs to be done in the next few weeks cuz I'm headed to Key West for two weeks at the beginning of April and probably won't be able to work on it. But I'd be more than happy to do it! Hahahahaha! That game was so bad! I boot it up every now and again thinking "It can't be as bad as I remember." But nope, every time I play it, I'm like bleh. Did you ever play it on a cabinet with those pressure sensitive punch panels? You know, Jibba, you could be a whole lot better if you'd just ditch the family thing and dedicate yourself to the game full time. WWRD?=What Would Ryu Do? ;-P
Honda's got nothing on Sagat and Ryu. Both can zone the hell out of him. Cammy has the foot speed to get in a lot of tosses. Honda's almost free for Gief. Fei can punch headbutts on block with rekkas, and back-dash on squats, and punish with P>rekka. Viper can punish headbutt on block w lowkick>m.TK, and can punish blocked smash w lowkick>m.TK (1~2frame opening).
GG's! I admire you for being able to play with yun like that. Well I messed up a few games too. *cough* Gief vs. Gief *cough*
No, I meant the Gief v. Gief matchup. That was the only reason I switched. Otherwise, I generally like the Gief mirrors. At this point though, whatever . . . it's not a big deal. See you online sometime.
I wish I could tell you how good he is, but that's literally all he did. I definitely didn't see the same skill level as someone like fffan. But maybe that's just my bias against players who spam (for lack of a better word) devil's reverse and head stomp.
Haha. I'll run that by the wife when I get home. It'll sound weird when I tell her that DoctaMario recommended it to me.
I get that a lot with Cammy. Devil's reverse and head stomp. fffan is great...to bad he's not as active. You can always play Heif if you want to get a beatdown from Bison
Headstomp, devil reverse and pyscho crushers are some of the worst moves to use against Apprunner's cammy..... apprunner you just know the match up so well! We should spar again soon! Apprunner, you are one of the most respectful members in this community...
haha thanks man. You know after sparring with you and Fffan so much, I rarely lose to Bisons these days. One beat me a couple days back but it was really laggy so messed up my surprise throws ...punished me bad for the attempt Anyways, we should have a Toucharcade university course...you must spar with these people to graduate: Sagat - Berserk_2nd / Squall / Wediafom Bison - Heif / Fffan Yun - Felix Sim - Jibba / Ken Ken / Squall Guile - SLRC / DoctaMario / Burnt Identity Viper - Mooken / Vaceotyn Cammy - Apprunner Geif - Cyrus Balrog - TenOneZ Blanka - Ivwshane Ryu - Wediafom / Epikninja Fei - iVoloster / TenOneZ Ken - Youngdreamer Vega - Finnix I guarantee you play these people in 10 set matches...you will get A LOT better. BTW, i've been in this community for a couple months but I've seen noticeable improvement across all the players. I think everybody is getting better
Have you figured out a counter? I'm at a loss. Even teleporting behind him still leaves me in front of him (WTF?) because he just moves backwards with the reverse. I just find the matchup boring at this point unfortunately. At least fighting Cammys are fun, even if it's a brutal matchup.
Yeah, that would be pretty neat if a quality compilation video got made. Maybe someone with some editing skills and good software will step forward... ...And you do the music. Will it be unplugged on a stool with some ambient lighting overhead, or downtuned heavy distortion and fast tempos? Its gotta be Guile's theme whatever the style is!
Block or backwalk/backdash the headstomp .. ? If there's a reverse attempt, then yoga flame up? I was messing around a bit with dhalsim today .. wow there's not much you can do with pressure/rushdown .. Against a jumpkicking/kneeing sagat, best you can do is a timely up-flame, but even that will sometimes trade. Eep.
