His stupid cloud curses on block, and goes through Jin's projectiles. WTF!

But yeah, I can't wait to go back...especially since it was 25 cents for 3 credits!!!
 
Some info on TvC I've gotten from various places:

Menu "translation"
1.) Arcade (You start on this option by default)
2.) Vs. (This isn't available unless additional controllers are plugged in)
3.) Survival
4.) Time Attack
5.) Training
6.) Player Data
7.) Options
8.) Shop
9.) Gallery
10.) Original Games (Minigames) (Just above the first option you start on.)


9.) Gallery
-1.) Character
0.) Stage
1.) Background Music
2.) Opening Movie
3.) Special ???


Game System (from SRK)
This game has FOUR buttons, configured in this layout:

(A)(B)(C)
(T)


(A) = Weak Attack
(B) = Medium Attack
(C) = Heavy Attack
(T) = Tag [sometimes called (P) for Partner, but its the same button]

(T) = Assist
Back+(T) = Tag out
(Attack)+(T) = Baroque Activation (uses all of your red life)
QCF+(T) = Aircombo Tag (uses 1 level of meter)
(A)+(B)+(C) = Dash shortcut (hold Up+Forward and do this to Instant Air Dash)
(A)+(B)+(C) while guarding = Advance Guard (Push Block)
(A)+(B)+(C)+(T) = Mega Crush (A combo breaker, takes 2 levels of meter and some Yellow life)
QCD+(T) while guarding = Variable Counter (an alpha counter tag, takes one meter)

It is also known that you can do a Variable Combination Super (Both characters super together), Delayed Hyper Combo (like MvC2), and Snapback (like MvC2).

All characters can double jump and air dash.

Launchers are all done using DF+(C).

Specials can be canceled into Supers.

Just to let you all know a little more about Baroque;

Activation uses all of your Red life. The duration of the effect does not seem based on how much red life you had, it seems set. Activation cancels any special or normal move you were in into a nuetral state, so it works as a roman cancel. For the duration of the glowing on your character, you will deal bonus damage proportionate to the amount of red life you used to activate. In a combo, where hits are heavily scaled already, this is not as noticable. But consider punishing someone's wiffed attack with a naked BAROQUE xx SHINKUU HADOUKEN. We saw this do 80% once at the Evo build. I dont know if things this dramatic can still happen in the final build, but you can bet your ass ill be testing it when I get my hands on it.

So a typical combo for any character is going to be

(Ground chain) -> (assist hits) -> (dash in a do same ground chain) xx (Baroque) -> (dash in and do the same ground chain) -> (launcher into air combo into super or just super)
 
*insert baroque obama joke*




i played HD this morning.
i went like, 12-0 or something before i had to go. i think i lost 2 rounds. i'm starting to hate the level of competition because i know there are people out there that can wipe the floor with me, and not just in bad matchups like cammy vs. honda or t.hawk vs. guile, and i should be playing those guys, not these xbl scrubs.
 
Can someone explain the logic behind Capcom forcing you to have two controllers plugged in to use the "vs." mode even if you set the "2P" option set to "CPU"?

They ship out Arcana Heart in a brown, nondescript package, so nobody will know what you are really buying. ;)

Hmm, I'm seriously thinking about going to GS and snagging a Mad Catz 360 controller so I can has a 360 stick. . .
 
[quote name='ninja dog']I tried to buy Arcana Heart 1 at the store and they had me arrested on the spot! No way I'm falling for that one again.[/QUOTE]

Apossum?

Either way I'll probably get AH2 even though I never had the time to properly learn AH1
 
Thanks SmallWind. very informative. I've been doing team supers on accident, and it was pissing me off that I couldn't pull em off with consistancy. Also didn't know about the variable parter moves. Thanks!
 
ahaha, directional normals + burst + baroque = guilty gear/blazblue.

and no universal snapback o_O

and KI sucks... go play BlazBlue instead. Unlike a new KI, BlazBlue is real!

real good too.
 
What did that come out of? VJ trying to Baroque out of the Dive Kick?

I want TvC plus my converter to show up in my mailbox now. Probably won't be here for another week.

Then again my inPin converter just showed up from Korea (only took 5 days!).

inPin converter + Pelican Converter = happy me
 
Has GameStop fixed the issue where you can't choose what fighter you're getting on the FightPad? I want to reserve a Chun-Li pad in-store before they sell out, but I haven't heard if they have fixed that yet problem or not.

No they haven't/ I preordered the 150 dollar stick last night and also trid to order a chun-li pad. You can do it on Amazon though.
 
I'm at work on saturday!!!

I hate it!! I wanna go home!!

GG and BB tournament tonite ^_^b
 
[quote name='JEKKI']I'm at work on saturday!!!
[/QUOTE]

I feel ya. I hate working on weekends period. I have work every Sunday it's pretty annoying.

Mostly because I can't be out late and wherever I am I have to drive all the way back home, so that I'm at work the next day.

My old schedule where I worked M-F, was amazing.

On a fighting game related note, I ordered another PS2/GC converter. Those will probably get here before TvC does. The waiting continues...
 
I tested the joybox briefly and it works very well, i didn't do specific lag tests on it yet, but I couldn't notice anythign wrong with it from 5 minutes of play with it.

Then again, I am unfamiliar with TvC vs say CVS2 or SCII (which I wanted to test them on)...

Good deal. Don't feel so bad ordering two of them now

I agree, TvC is the only fighting game I have for Wii and I won't have other games to test it on that I am familiar with.

Gonna try to head out to SVGL to check out Blazblue with a couple friends of mine. Over an hour and a half drive for a game I have no idea to play at the moment :)

Kinda bummed out SJSU's arcade is closed for Winter Break. Going to be without SFIV for a while now :(

I think that's what I'm going to do. I don't want to take my chances and get stuck with the Blanka controller(no offense Blanka fighters).:lol::lol::lol:

HOW, DARE, YOU!

jk I'm a Blanka player but I want an Akuma controller. :drool:
 
[quote name='Chacrana']I've got a no Asians policy, so I'll be getting the Ken controller.[/quote]

So you're saying purchasing an Akuma controller would violate my racism towards Asians policy?

Well, Akuma is a demon. So it's basically an Asian admitting his faults?
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']:lol:

to be correct, Puerto Rican, or as you call it: Mexican
[/QUOTE]

Right, so I did some racial math and said Puerto Rican (Read: Mexican) + Chinese =

Ta~da!

You got a Filipino.

Isn't Ken asian? I mean he's got that dyed hair and all.

I guess you're stuck with the mutant Brazilian.
 
man I jus got hella owned at the BlazBlue tournament...

there was all these ppl there, yet my first match fortunately gets to be against one of the 3 doods that is ALWAYS there whenever I go and hands my ass for free.

I was playing him and u can hear in the background "hey watch this match! the gap between their skill levels in insane!" and then I almost got perfected... 4 times.

my 2nd match was against the dood who works at the arcade!! again, another dood with a crap load more experience with the game that I have.

:cry:

I really wanna jus go when nobody is there and get comfortable with the game, like after work one day or something, but I kno those 3 doods will be there and then I'll have driven all the way for nothing

>_< craziness!!

http://sdtekken.com/tech-area/arcade-sticks/arcade-stick-ranking/

Not 100% done. I'm putting together a grid/chart that shows which parts are used, PCB info, and build info.

Not many changes will be made ranking wise, but if anyone has any opinions/arguments they'd like to bring up, I would like to hear it. And no, this post is not for me to spill out reasoning/info on why I think the SF4 sticks are ranked so high -_-

Also, I don't know where I should put MAS sticks... There are so many different types/builds. But I do agree a Happ MAS is equivalent to that of a HAPP anniversary stick. Not to mention the deteriorating quality of parts used for those sticks over the years... -_- ... Oh well. I'll probably put the MAS at A or A+. Cuz I don't know if anyone is old enough to remember way back... there WERE definite issues...

anyone still play SCIV?
im gonna go check out radioshack later today and hope they have the 360 version since its on clearance for $19.97
 
What a night. A couple of my friends and I drove out SJSU to play SFIV and BlazBlue. Then drove the 15 minutes to SVGL to play T6 and BlazBlue. (*In addition to all the other great FG's at both spots*)

SVGL has T6 and BlazBlue in HD Japanese Cabs with Sanwa Parts. Tooooo nice. I remember MarkMan mentioning that BlazBlue was gorgeous. I have to agree with him. SJSU has BlazBlue in a regular cab opposed to SVGL. Shit is like night and day.

Tons of great Noel, Tager, Jin and Rachel players at SVGL tonight. Had one Litchi player, but a great Rachel player handed him his.

JEKKI, sorry things didn't work out at the BlazBlue tourney. People pick up shit quick. Then again it helps when you are there ALL the time.
 
Um, MM, why would ease of modification be used with other factors like quality. I mean, if modified, the quality of the stock parts is pretty much a non-factor.

BTW, I thought Fighting Stick 3 was essentially the same as the Wii Fighting Stick and the 360 Fighting Stick EX2.
 
[quote name='option.iv']Isn't Ken asian? I mean he's got that dyed hair and all.

Ken is half Japanese from his mother's side.

And I kind of want the details on those other controllers. It's really not fair for Madcatz to be holding out on designs when they're offering pre-orders for the other designs. I pre-ordered two controllers already, but I might change my mind on which ones I get depending on what these new designs are offering.
