My first time raging in a fighting game ever happened last night.

Both caught on the stream :lol:

Went 2-2 at the Weekly Tourney Sessions I help put together on Wednesdays. Out of the 4 matches I played, 3 were Phoenix Teams. I played one non-Phoenix team at the beginning of the night and got 3 straight to end it all.

Had to play FChamp's Phoenix Team, then a friend of mine's Phoenix Team (he doesn't normally play Phoenix) and then had to play Crizzle, who told me after it was his first time playing Phoenix. Ughhhh!!

I managed to beat one of my friends' Phoenix teams and it got caught on stream me telling him "fuck you for playing Phoenix", but it was all good after. I just looked hella mad/annoyed :lol:

After losing my final match in the Phoenix Gauntlet, I slammed my stick down and just walked away. Probably the most angry I've been since this game came out.
 
[quote name='blitz6speed']Phoenix is mentally retarded. She will hopefully be nerfed with the DHC patch.[/QUOTE]

[quote name='heavyd853']Phoenix is fucking retarded, real talk.[/QUOTE]

I don't mind regular Phoenix (I don't think anyone does), it's Dark Phoenix that's annoying. No other character in FGs makes you play as different as she does. Even if someone is brain-dead with their first two characters (which a lot of Phoenix teams are), they have a 50/50 chance because of Dark Phoenix (assuming they get the meter)

I think I was also annoyed last night because as I told some of my friends who were there, that I'm glad that people respect me so much that they can't play their normal teams against me. Bah!
 
[quote name='Halo05']I want to use Reptile. I spent awhile today getting his timing down for multiple force balls. Smoke and Liu Kang are in the running too. I've got to finish story mode/more of the challenge tower before I commit and that's still a ways off.[/QUOTE]


yeah I made it a point to not commit till I hit top of tower and beat arcade with all characters.


I want to pick up reptile but as stupid as it sounds I can't stand how he looks... I can only really play him with his classic ninja outfit on... and even then ...
 
[quote name='asianxcore']All I want from that Collection is Button Mapping. Please let there be Button Mapping.[/QUOTE]

This, oh god this.

Speaking of MK, I haven't touched MK9 in weeks because of the online play. It's like literally unplayable.

I should hit training mode in it sometime soon and figure out who I wanna use. I was digging Kitana and Liu Kang before my hiatus.

+1 for button mapping. It needs it baaaaaaad.

I hate that most of the combos straight up don't work online. I thought the patch would be out by now. It sucks because it's really the one thing that's holding it back from being a great game.

GGs to MtlTom in MvC earlier.

My damn medium punch buttons doesn't work every single time I press it (comes out about 9 out of 10 times). I had this problem with hard punch before, then eventually ordered new buttons because mine were super worn out anyway.

Now the problem has been transferred to medium punch somehow... mad annoying.
 
Any of you sons of bitches wanna play SSF4 on 360? I haven't played in like 6 months so I'll be free as hell, but I was in the mood to play it after watching some match videos earlier. I'm on now.

Yeah, GGs. That Wesker/Taskmaster/Sent team is pretty sick. I just started playing the team I was using a few weeks ago. I'm still not 100% comfortable with Doom but I think he works out pretty well on the team. I need to not crouch block so much :whistle2:/

If you wanna play Super, hit me up this weekend. I'll probably be super rusty because I haven't really played it since Marvel.

By the way, is anyone playing BBCS2 on X360? I just downloaded the update today & messed around a bit today. Not stoked that I have to re-learn Tager, but I think most of his changes are for the better

That was actually the first time I used those guys together... Never really took Taskie seriously but trying him out because I need to figure out a damn team and just stick to it. I really like Doom too and played him for a bit but his awkward mobility eventually had me re-considering. I got pretty adept at the jump forward->DF+PP to get across screen quickly, but it was still awkward. I also had trouble really opening up people with him. Once you get an opening, though, it is on. We'll have to play again soon.

As for Super, I played about 5 matches and got bored of it. I'd be happy to play with a friend though.

As for BB, haven't touched the series since CT. Never bothered with CS since many of the new characters were DLC.
 
Taskmaster is too good.

Way too much damage for not a lot of execution. 1 Throw leads to an easy 50% damage minimum.

Also his Arrows do way too much chip.

Agreed man, I'm definitely going to put some time into him. He's just super solid overall.
 
Not sure what to do... consoles here are really expensive. We've mostly been playing TTT/SFA/TS on MAME with one keyboard but it really sucks. Next I think I'm gonna try downloading SFIV for PC... that's the latest version right?

Maybe I can buy a PS2 or something off ebay and get it shipped here.... hmmmmmm
 
[quote name='asianxcore']Same to you.

I won't lie, our main teams are pretty cheap :lol:[/QUOTE]

You guys use Phoenix?

Oh and just in case you were wondering, this is what we use for assists

Wesker B (low-shot), Task A (forward arrows), Sent A (mini-Sents)
Wolvie Y I think... (Berserker Slash), Dorm A (Dark Hole), Akuma B (Tatsu)
 
"Namco Bandai has lifted the lid on Soulcalibur V at its press event in Dubai this morning.

The game, set 17 years after Soulcalibur IV, features guest characters, Project Soul producer Hisaharu Tago told Christian Donlan for Eurogamer.

The main character is Patroklos, son of Sophitia. Patroklos is "inspired" by the gameplay of Sophitia, but is "sharper" and "more agile". He has new moves, but they're all inspired by Sophitia's.

V takes the Siegried ending of IV and builds upon it. Seigfried, now 39 years old, no longer wields the Soul Calibur sword.

V is described as a "generational shift", complete with new characters, but SCIV characters will return. "SC 1-4 was a continuous story," Tago said. "We want to make a generational shift with a new story this time."

The Soulcalibur series is famous for the inclusion of characters from other universes, such as Link from The Legend of Zelda and Yoda from Star Wars. Will other non-Soulcalibur characters feature?


"Difficult question," Tago said. "We will have guest characters as we did with Star Wars. Please stay tuned for more information on that."

V marks a shift from two-handed swords to short swords, Tago announced. The story includes "the enigma as to why the swords have become short swords".

The game's new fighting style is described as "lighter, sharper, and more elegant". The online mode has been improved with new features. "Gameplay in IV could be a little heavy, particularly when you were online – we wanted gameplay that was more fast and reactive," Tago said.

On the shift in gameplay: "Maybe the hardcore fans will be afraid that we lose the core of the gameplay, but that's not the case. And for new players it's nice to have gameplay that is more continuous – you don't need to wait as much between moves.

"There is quite some change in the gameplay from SCIV. The pace of the game has been improved, and the combos will be easier to perform, and the moves will be easier to pull out."

Elsewhere, Tago confirmed the create a character feature from previous games in the series returns, but refused to divulge details.

Namco Bandai is yet to show actual gameplay, but promised more information at E3 next month."

Some things sound good about it, some not so much. The return of guest characters and create-a-character is super fucking stupid, but hopefully the "lighter" gameplay means no armor breaks and that stupid shit.

Just give me SC2 fighting system with more characters please and updated movelists please....
 
Quintuple post, but looks like a few pieces of art were released for SC5...

Sophitia's son, Patroklos

paraphrasing something I heard on the MK stream;

"when I see someone do a combo break in the 1st round when they're low on health, it makes me wonder how good they are with money"

funniest thing I heard on stream since Rockafeller!!

[quote name='shinryuu']hell yeah, hey taskie bring that back[/QUOTE]WHATCHU KNO ABOUT BRINGIN IT BACK?!?!

I don't even have Reptile's classic outfit and I definitely see what you're saying. My favorite victory pose in UMK3 was Reptile's and I couldn't play him for shit in that game.

I haven't bought any new costumes for any of my games but I'll probably make an exception for MK. I'm dying for Ermac's and Smoke's too.
 
Bit of a long shot but who knows, maybe someone will be able to make it...

Me and Rolento are going to this place Monday night, the 23rd (next Monday). It is located in Brooklyn.

If anyone thinks they could make it, just let me know and we can discuss the details.
 
I bet the tournament would have been more legit if the PDP MK stick didn't break right before grand finals.
