[kainzero]

ok, so I've managed to get to Viper's hard trial #2 and I'm just bamboozled. Is there some kind of input shortcut or do I really have to have quick hands to go from crouch HP -> Cancel TK -> Ultra. By the time I can cancel, Dan's already recovered from the hit, and from watching the trial vid, I know I'm doing something wrong.
crouch HP --> QCB+HP --> QCF + (MP+HP), --> QCF + PPP

[BustaUppa]

Cool game shops? Actually yeah.. there's this one small chain called Power Gamer. There are 2 or 3 of them. They sell games, imports, anime, a bunch of stuff. Arcade sticks.. great place with great people. I need to buy from there more often. Their prices usually aren't too great though. What do you expect from a small time store, yaknow?Maaaan I miss the "cool game shops" that used to be in my area. There was a "Game Express" that had a bunch of import stuff and just a really cool vibe to it. I actually bought Rival Schools and CastleVania: SOTN there, now that I think about it. But it got turned into a Quiznos or something. It was practically right on top of a GameStop so I gotta assume that's what killed it. :(

Also there was "Games USA" which had freakin Atari games and made no bones about showcasing their mod-chipped consoles and GBA flash carts and whatnot. They disappeared too and I think the building just houses some random insurance company now.

On a different note... I gotta start hammering down on more of the SFIV challenges! What I mean to do is see how far I can go with each character without any help... then start looking up videos and doing research to be beat the really hard stuff.

[Inf^Shini]

crouch HP --> QCB+HP --> QCF + (MP+HP), --> QCF + PPP
Thanks, I've been able to get the cancel in time, I just need to input the ultra faster and I should get it.

Someone also mentioned that you could just hold HP after c.HP and just do the qcb motion then release HP. Haven't tried it yet but sounds odd also :-s

[notorious_pip]

Yeah, that's called negative edging because you get an input from a button when you press and then another one when the button gets depressed.

[Inf^Shini]

whoo!

in sadder news... I guess I wasnt cool enough to get invited to the secret BlazBlue party

:cry:

[kainzero]

negative edging confuses me too much. that's why i didn't play hilde in sc4 because you have to hold stuff down while not holding other stuff down and then you do moves by letting go of buttons.


i just wanna press buttons.

i really hated it in garou because it buffers negative edges. i remember playing the game in the arcade and picking b.jenet, for BnB i used c.BxN - qcb+A. well i kept getting qcb+B and i couldn't figure it out until i was like, ohhh, negative edging, this is retarded

[Japakneez]

Oh so that's what negative edge is :-k

its also a waste of time

[djbooba]

I think SF4 has officially broken my spirit. I think this is the first SF game that I refuse to put any real time and effort into. I think it is time to just let the kids take over from here. I'll still play but I have no desire to play online with people I don't know anymore. First it was Soul Calibur 4 and now Street Fighter 4. I think I'll just stick to my retro dreams and call it a day.

[Inf^Shini]

Where's the BlazBlue parteh at?

I'm surprised about a KOF movie, they haven't learned have they? I predict lots of wire fu and CG, and little acting.

[Furashu]

hold out and I've got a preview of a short section from the FGT movie... it's uploading ATM.

[RelentlessRolento]

Here we go!

Here's a preview of a film sequence I'm working on... still needs some missing effects and fixes, but overall it's being worked on:

(follow link to play it in HQ... also play this on good speakers...)

ngMAPUUz0_A

The red suited person (ReRo) is me in the suit... the black costume (MarkMan) is my friend... the crotch shot is not real entirely... my friend threw some "props" in there to enhance it...


I'm working with the musician who made the song Breakbeat Heartbeat, a UK chiptunes Musician, who will have alot of his work featured in it. I've also possibly got another guy doing the music for the intro credits.

[ZerotypeX]

if anyone wants to vs a scrubby ryu or newbie rose, im on

Yea, my first attempt at Viper online didn't pan out so well and I was laughing when I got hit at the end of Balrog's Ultra :lol:
It was fun though, hopefully I can pick up other characters soon otherwise you'll be seeing Bison the whole time :/

I'm STILL trying to get Viper's Hard #2 down, damn it's annoying :bomb: One time I ended up canceling into a c.mp -> EX Seismic then just followed through with hj, bk, then H.tk for the hell of it.
Very weird, a couple times when I did the motion for TK I came out with a Seismic :-s

I can do combos, my hands just freak out too much to do them in actual matches -.-

[asianxcore]

Which KoF is the most popular (worldwide)?

Is it '98 or 2k2? Or another?

Some correct me if I'm wrong but I assumed both were really popular. Both games play differently.

Annoying Angel infinite pops in my head once I think of 2k2

[Strell]

Any SF4 360 players wanna throw down?

[JEKKI]

whooo~!!! thanks Markmang!!

but honestly, I'ma pass. I saw the list of doods that are going that was posted, I dont really fit in with the GG community lol.

there's like what I consider the 3 best doods in Socal, and like last year they would come down to FFA for our 6-man ranbats (since all the GG players live in OC) and nobody would play the arcade game, they're all hanging out playing the game on the side at the console setup.

so there'd be one dood on the machine, and I'd be playing him over and over and over again, quarter after quarter getting my ass kicked upwards of $6-$7, and for a quarter a play we would never speak a word to each other.

I would eventually run out of money and be like lol good game and that would be the end of that.

[heavyd853]

2k2 is the most popular in central and south america, everywhere else its 98 I think. Europe might be 2k2 as well.

My favorite is XI, then 98.

[Arikado]

Anyone up that wants to play ST on GGPO or HDR/SFIV on 360?

[Strell]

If you want to beat me around again on SF4, sure.

I decide to play sum SFIV and the fukkyn roundhouse button stops working on my TE stick again, the same problem I had with the stick out the box.

I decide to repeat history and open the thing up, and the top right screw becomes stripped. I cant open the front panel anymore.

:bomb:

wtf am I suppose to do now?

[MarkMan]

If anyone wants to play vs me/my bro, send a invite to SDT AlexMan (360)...

JEKKI, call in and n8 will send you replacement parts.

[JEKKI]

-EDIT-

I'ma play w my other stick rite now... send u a msg

u kno what's cool about fighting viper tho?

u never gotta use EX moves haha

-EDIT-

awww... Kain in the Brain, your suggestion didnt work :cry:

but... I was able to fix it from the bottom! access to squeeze! voided warranties FTW!!

still... I swear stripped screws are a mortal enemy of mine.

actually, any and all handyman tools in general. omg... I should jus stick to pencils and calculators...

so yah... there's a cash bounty to anybody who can remove this screw from my TE stick.

otherwise at the very least my dreams of a dual mod will be gone forever

[heavyd853]

Use your teeth JEKKI!

I played a good ryu tonight who was like absolutely even with me, we even ended up 10-10. It was awesome, and my faith has been restored in this game.


Although it wasn't wavering to begin with so much.

[Strell]

GGs Kado. I made a little leeway over the other night.

Someone needs to teach me how the in the hell you are supposed to fight against Abel. He enters into that combo shit and it seems like it's a guaranteed throw.

I was cursing Zangeif, and then I won that single match, and it felt like maybe I figured something out I shouldn't know. Still think he's exceptionally difficult to fight against.

If you block the first hit of Abel's rekka, you can punish him pretty easily. That is the opportune time to do so.

I was trying a few things with Zangief to see what beat what on Fuerte's run and followups. Cr. MP and the headbutt seem to be good, but it seems like more of a rock-paper-scissors scenario. Regardless, Fuerte is annoying as fuck to fight against, especially as Gief.

Is it bad that I want to play Battle Fantasia more than SFIV right now?

[option.iv]

Is it bad that I want to play Battle Fantasia more than SFIV right now?
Honestly, not really. Personally, I'm just getting tired of SFIV. The shortcuts in this game are just stupid. SRK has been reduced to spam down-forward and punch.

whooo~!! tournament today! wish me luck!!

I dont wanna die in round 1 lol

It's mindless alright... heh, enjoy.

[JEKKI]

whooo!! I'm back!!

:cry:

lol. yeay. I lost hard.

so like I get there and play sum practice matches, but it takes me a while to get used to it coz the different screen size disorients the buck out of me!! I had to lose like 3 matches before finally adjusting to the setup, but once I did all was good. I got back on, had a nice streak, but got off the machine after my 3rd win coz I lost to a member of the Balrog army. That was the last game I played before the tournament started.

so my first round is against Amir, who placed 9th at AI last week... who's also a Blanka killer. Match is crazy, i was able to definitely put up a fight but I never won a single round. I had him once, I did the corner knockdown into Ultra to kill him with chip damage, but instead he freakin UPPERCUTS ME MID ULTRA INTO FADC INTO HIS OWN ULTRA!!! My brain exploded when I saw that... and it killed me too.

second match was against E. Honda... yes, terrible matchup. Furthermore, it's best of one match so I couldnt afford to mess up. I was already tired at this point, first round I hit him with my ultra but whiffed upon release. Not happy about that. Second round I dont kno what happened, but I realized I had already lost so much life that it was over.

o well... gotta practice up for next time.

other highlights:

played BlazBlue for my first time since JAN. Took a while to remember all my shyt and honestly, playing this game side by side with SFIV... Street Fighter shyts all over BB. Like BB doesnt feel as rewarding anymore, it feels like even if I got hella better at it then Guilty Gear would still be the better game. I donno why, but I'll think about it more later.

I also saw gootecks and said hi to him, but he doesnt remember me AGAIN! This is like the 3rd time I had to reintroduce myself... I guess he doesnt wanna be my friend. :cry: lol. At least Markmang and nasty n8 remember me!!

[MarkMan]

gootecks just wants your fight money :(

[Furashu]

hey markman wanna play some matches, i should be going to the tourney pending i wake up on time !

at least MM is less mysterious than before... before all we got were one word statements and a smile.... that's it.

To be honest I really expect E3 to be very good this year for all consoles. All consoles (yes, handhelds as well) are in a comfortable state and all have good support and enough comfort now for devolopment cycles...

I honestly don't know what to expect but it will definitly make me forget E3 from the past 2 years.

Yo Jimbo, how much for the Tekken sticks and what's their condition?

[gunm]

When does Guilty Gear: Accent Core+ come out?



For PS2 and/or PSP? Second week of April.

For Wii? Middle of May.

I might get the PSP version since I already have the regular AC for PS2 (import).

[distgfx]

ooooh, GG AC was the game I traded away before. I figured I'd import AC+ instead, but I had completely forgotten it was coming here. Score!

[RelentlessRolento]

I'll probably get the PSP version since it's nice to practice while riding the bus or train since I'm barely home nowadays.

[Furashu]

[Ronin317]

I know it. Capcom is hotness and I really do hope SNK follows in their footsteps.
Damn straight. Although, I'm sure SNK is much more limited budget-wise. And judging by how much of an issue they are having with the Samurai Shodown Anthology US release, which they had a ton of time to fix from the JP one, I'm losing hope. The new KoF needs to rock for them...

Wait, what happened in that vid? Viper missed the Ultra, people go crazy thinking Viper won :roll:....then sagat does his Ultra. Did Sagat hit with it and win?



Sounds like there's a whole lotta convicts up in that tourney :whee:

[Inf^Shini]

Yea it's hard to tell, but after Viper whiffed, everyone goes nuts thinking Viper is done then Sagat whiffs his Ultra w/out the player realizing, Viper guys notices, wins, and all hell breaks loose...again.

If you pause it right during 2:43 you'll see Viper's win pose.

[Strell]

The comments on the video say that Viper's ultra ends with her crouching, which caused Sagat to sail right over her head.

Also, the comments say the big Asian dood is Justin Wong? If so, he looks like Asian Jack Black.

They're both like new. I got an offer for 105 shipped for both of them but I don't think I'm going to take that because the shipping will kill a lot of the money I would make.

PM me an offer.

I will also consider trades, so just let me know if you have a TL floating around.

[hankmecrankme]

I wish I could share.... I wish I could..

Capcom is bringing the heat this year and next fo sho...
Nice. . . I'll take that as good news. :drool:
Haha I remember when we made a chatroom once, it was pretty funny. Where the hell has chac been hiding, is he still angry at people for having SFIV or something?

I'm down for the chat.

I'm down for the chat, most def.

And Chac just hates you guys. :)

Even me? :(

[hankmecrankme]

Even me? :(

Yep.



Obviously, I'm just kidding. He doesn't really hate you guys. I think, anyway. :-k

[heavyd853]

I think what happened was that he spilled his count chocula, and really did vacuum it all up and then eat the vacuum because he didn't want to waste it.

That or he went into a diabetic coma from it.

[hankmecrankme]

Dude, he was always eating Count Chocula. I had to go out and get some because I had a craving for it from him talking about it nonstop. :drool:

He talks to me on AIM, so I know he doesn't hate me. . .

[RelentlessRolento]

I miss him, but I know he has his reasons why he's not on CAG much.

So far I'm 80% done with the credits for the FGT film... they're turning out nice :)

I'll post the finished version hopefully tomorrow.

[Japakneez]

Ok both Ultras missed. Now that is hilarious :lol:

In SF2 there were throws and grabs. Shotos generally had throws while chargers and grapplers generally had grabs. You could tech out of throws by doing the throw input and you could lower the damage of grabs by mashing buttons. I don't think SFIV has grabs though.

So like, I totally wailed on this 10 year old girl and I was all like, "lol joo sux, lern2blokn00b"

Then she was all sad face.

Then I went in for the kill and said sexual expletives about her mother!

To celebrate, I drank a keg of beer and ate a 10 pound steak! GOD I AM SO MANLY!!!!!!!!!

no, u cannot reduce damage by mashing.

Honda's jumping short does not cross over... or at least I dont think it does. Thus, jus block high.

oicho throw is a beeyotch. Jus try not to get him close to you, and exercise caution when getting close to him.

I remember that in Marvel Vs. Capcom 1&2 you can spin the joystick as Zangief to do more damage during a Spinning Pile Driver (and similar Hyper), but nothing to reduce damage... cept maybe to smack your opponent's hands away from the stick.

[hankmecrankme]

That KOF move was complete fail the moment it became live action. Don't forget to add the alien invasion plot or whatever into the mix.

[BlueSwim]

I wonder which will be the worst? KOF, The Legend of Chun-Li or DOA: Dead or Alive?

DOA obviously isn't the worst since it has Jamie Presley in a bikini and Kevin Nash. Both are redeeming enough qualities to spare it of the "worst fighting game movie" title.

After playing SFIV much of the day on Sunday, I think I got burnt out on it. I tried to fire it up today but I really couldn't keep it on for long before I ejected the CD.

I haven't played on it in ages, but 3rd Strike and Super Turbo are probably still the most popular, outside of the KOFs.

I'm getting on GGPO later. I'm probably rusty as hell, but I'll play anything with anyone. :)

I played a random, 5 rounds. His Ryu takes 2 straight and then I win the next 3 rounds with Abel to win the match. The guy messages me after and says "What's good, I'm not convinced".

So I invite him to a Player Match, go 6-1 with Abel. I then pick Seth, lose and he messages me saying "You fight like no honor"

Dear Scrubs, using nouns found in Shaw Bros. films and using adjectives to describe wins/losses/characters instead of actual FG speak....yea doesn't work makes you sound wonky.

Ray Park's too short for Rugal
Kyo, Iori, Chizuru & Mai are all non-Japanese. Kyo's not even Asian.

And from the screnes I've seen the costumes suck. There's cosplayers that look better. I just dont' understand what they're thinking when they make these movies. As soon as you hear the words "KOF live-action movie" you know it'll suck, but at least cater to the fans, make it look like a KOF movie. Their costumes in the game aren't that complex to recreate.

I don't even know who I'd get to play Terry Bogard. Dude is fucking rocked. Look at those arms.

Oh yeah, KOF move = FAIL? Definitely.

[Inf^Shini]

Who's gonna play as Benimaru and Chang?!? :O
:whee:

[JEKKI]

Benimaru casting is hella easy.

old skool Kid Rock ftw.

Got my ass handed to me by some pretty good Sims. :cry: I could use some practice.

New interview with Tekken Team's Katsuhiro Harada... (http://sdtekken.com/2009/04/02/nowgamer-qa-session-with-katsuhiro-harada/#more-2137)

NowGamer: Beat-’em-ups are precise games. What was the main challenge in creating an online multiplayer?

Katsuhiro Harada: Even when compared to other fighting games, Tekken has its own unique challenges. There is one particular aspect of Tekken that is distinctly different from the systems of other 2D and 3D fighting games. The control system is designed foremost to be intuitive and responsive. After a player inputs a command, the technique is executed the next frame. In one frame after the input, you see the results displayed on screen. This is something that is not widely known, but this is unique to Tekken. Other fighting games have a buffer of several frames after a command input. Even offline, there is a delay in the response time as a result of this.

Tekken executes this in one frame, making it very responsive for a fighting game. This is something maybe even a lot of hardcore players don’t know, but it is well known among other developers. I’ve talked a lot about this before with other directors of fighting franchises from other companies. So, taking such a responsive fighting game online in itself is a huge challenge. Every day, we are working hard to make the game as responsive as possible.

NG: The enhancements of juggles using the ‘Bound’ system is a move toward more tech gameplay. Is this the direction of the Tekken franchise?

KH: It might seem quite technical at first, but it is easy to pick up. It is rather an element that makes going on the offence that much more fun while adding another level to the gameplay. We never have and never will try to make this a strictly technical game. We are always reflecting on the thrilling over-the-top essence of Tekken and how to improve upon that.

NG: How have the item moves affected the gameplay? How much impact do they have? Are they just novelty?

KH: Ｗe didn’t want these items to be a factor in the outcome of the match. We wanted it to be a fun game element, another way for the player to express himself/herself. We would never implement a feature where a player with a particular item equipped is rendered much stronger than his/her opponent. These projectiles don’t do much damage but this “shooting” and “evading” adds a new element of fun to the game. Not only that but it is another method of confusing your opponent and maybe gaining an advantage.

NG: What was the thought behind the rage mode, it being quite an old-school idea? What does it add to the gameplay?

KH: It is quite an old-school idea. Everyone’s probably thinking, “Why make such a simplistic addition?” We are constantly trying to balance these concepts: ‘the technical and strategic element as a versus fighting tool’ and ‘thrilling elements of an action game combined with an element of chance’. Keeping these elements in mind, we try to decide how we want to flavour the game.

NG: Changing every frame of animation must have been quite a job, but it’s a huge change in terms of juggles and just frames for those that have been with the series for a while. How do you think the hardcore fans will take to such a change?

KH: Of course there are so many characters in Tekken 6 that it probably has the most number of unique moves in a fighting game. However, the game is designed so that you can select a few moves that are easy to execute, or that are handy in a variety of situations, and still do fairly well. Also, once you learn one or two characters, it is fairly easy to pick up other characters as well. The hardcore players will probably notice a deeper level of strategy and gameplay as well as more combo opportunities, but all of this was accomplished without making the controls complex. Actually, the current version is well received in the arcades.

NG: What kind of console extras will we see when this makes it to our PS3s?

KH: There will be a lot of extra content for the console on both the PS3 and 360. We’re also considering PlayStation Home related features. I can’t talk about the other stuff we have planned at this time. Of course, there will also be console specific modes and other ways to enjoy the game.

NG: What were the main challenges with developing across multiple platforms? The arcade cabinet uses PS3 technology, does this mean that the Xbox360 version loses out?

KH: Regarding the PS3 related code, the game is geared to make the most use of the SPU and the code is written around this. Also, full motion blur was added while maintaining 60 frames; something that other fighting games were unable to implement. This is the first time we’ve taken this specialized code to the 360, and it will be a big challenge but we want to dispel any fears that fans might have that the 360 version will be inferior. We’re making progress every day and we’re quite confident.

NG: How, over the years, have various versions of other 3D fighters affected the development of Tekken?

KH: We’ve been influenced by various games during the series. Are there any fighting games that aren’t influenced at all by or use other games as a reference? For TEKKEN, not only have we been influenced by other 3D fighting games, but sometimes 2D ones as well.

Actually there is an interesting episode related to this…In the past, we had developed an arcade cabinet with a memory card reader. We were thinking of interesting ways to implement this feature in TEKKEN when the director of Virtua Fighter, who had been thinking of something similar, approached us. We decided to collaborate on this idea and it led to an exciting new feature: the card-based character customization system used in TEKKEN and Virtua Fighter, which was also adapted to the console versions. You may think “But you’re rivals. Why?” but using a common network system allows us to provide a much better service to the fans. As a result of this rival relationship while using the same network system, the popularity of the genre as a whole increased and was a good result for both teams. This is a good example of a positive influence that benefited the arcade scene as a whole.

NG: How will Tekken 6 differ from everything else on the market when it hits the console?

KH: We reworked the graphic engine and created new shaders. In doing so, we had to make sure we could implement the graphic effects we wanted while still maintaining 60 frames. This is something that is extremely difficult to pull off, and there weren’t many examples in other games. Tailoring the programming to make the most use of the Cell’s SPU allowed us to achieve the results we were aiming for. We managed to implement a full motion blur effect that Soul Calibur and other fighting games haven’t accomplished while still maintaining 60 frames. Look at other action or fighting games after playing Tekken 6 for 10 minutes and I believe you’ll be quite surprised at the difference in the animation.

NG: How far do you see the Tekken franchise going? How many more can you do?

KH: Just as if you were to ask someone “How long do you think you’ll live?” and don’t think many people can easily answer that question. As long as the fans continue to enjoy the series, I would love to continue to do it. I have three big ideas that I would really like to see to fruition. These ideas don’t really rely on hardware specs but are something that would really enhance the versus game play element of a game. I would like to implement these ideas using Tekken as a base.

NG: Tekken 6 saw release in the arcade long before home consoles. Do you think this will always be the case?

KH: I don’t. The circumstances were much different this time. We did release Tekken 6 in arcades at the end of 2007. However, we began work on arcade update TEKKEN 6 Bloodline Rebellion after that (of course, we also helped out with Soul Calibur 4). If it weren’t for the work we had with TEKKEN 6 BR, we probably could have made a console TEKKEN 6 already. However, we really wanted to raise the quality and increase the volume of TEKKEN 6, and that was also a request from the arcade market as well.

NG: Where does the future of PS3 look to be going to you? Having worked with the architecture, how much of the potential of the console is being used?

KH: As far as potential goes, this is something we really noticed when developing Bloodline Rebellion. In the Tekken Project, when we talk about dividing the processing we say to “SPU it”. If you use the SPU’s capabilities properly and optimize the code accordingly you can pull a lot out of the hardware. For example, if you implement all the features that you planned but don’t have enough processing power, you can still make it work if you optimize the code to make full use of this. Of course, twice the memory would be nice…
