Anything with Cammy (not in green ;)), Lili, or Cassandra. Go fucking nuts :bouncy:
 
this looks like a huge ripoff:

[quote name='Chacrana']Hey man, in Remix I totally did play Fei Long and occasionally Cammy. I tried.[/quote]

You told me you picked them by accident when you were playing Remix with one hand and uhh.. with the other.

Yeah, that was part of it :cry:
 
Haha, war cry!


In other news, apparently I have played like 850 matches in STHD according to the scoreboards (hint: I haven't).

And it still freezes when I check my friends stuff!
 
I just find it kinda odd it's slightly more expensive for the 360. Must be that there's more fees for capcom on live or something.
 
So I played this akuma player last night who did literally nothing except jab shoryukens to build meter and then super. I sat back and watched it over and over.

Then won.

Another player match had this dude using dee jay. He turned off the timer and just sat in the corner, throwing max outs and doing upkicks on jump ins, then 7hit crossup combos on wakeup. Then back to the corner..

I beat him too but it wasn't as easy as the akuma. Surprisingly quality dj shenanigan, if you don't have to worry about time and can play just defense.

Of course he quit after losing. (he had like 20 straight wins before I came in) Why is it fun to play like that?
 
Yo yo, sorry for the lack of interview questions being sent.

Ended up having to go to a conference that was like 2 and a half hours away for the weekend.


Will PM them as soon as possible!

IV! 10 days!

I haven't skipped class this semester for this exact reason :)

It's not.. people take Sirlin's "Playing To Win" essays way too seriously, including myself at times. :lol:

I've never straight-up skipped class. Closest thing was when VF5 hit teh 360, and I just couldn't fucking stop playing the game. I was in my accounting class, and I just got up and left in the middle of it to go play more of the game.

I won't skip class for SFIV, either, but I'll probably pull another stunt like that.
 
I might just get the PC version and play it in class..

Just msg me on PSN Puma

So if anyone could help me with this, i'd appreciate it, because it's a consistent frustration.

What the fuck are you supposed to do about shotos that do those wakeup crossup/jump in MK/HK shit?

It's like, seriously my main weakness. I can't fucking stand the way these assholes get free hits and just lock you down every single time you're getting up and it feels like chun is powerless against it. If it's not that it's a stream of hadoukens and then jab shoryukens one after the other.

Those last two aren't as bad, but I just fucking hate playing shotos and hate that they're so damn popular.

Her neutral air LK isn't any good cause the hitboxes don't mesh, and blocking just is a temporary solution and seems to just encourage throws and more lockdown hits. Plus after blocking the shit they just jump in again for another round of bullshit.

I can beat them, sometimes. But it's always this kinda crap that loses me matches to shoto players. Jump in HK, Duck HK. Duck HK. Duck HK. jump in, etc. etc.
 
Chun is weak against full-screen players. You have to practice your spacing and work on fighting closer to opponents.
 
Well, I've now plateua'd in 3rd strike, in the same fucking place I plateau in every fighting game. I have a basin understanding of the game and can handle the super scrubs, but the higher level shit just goes right over my head. Same as what happened in HDRemix and SC4.

That's why you gotta keep playing - you don't just suddenly pick up skillz - you learn that shit gradually. You'll get it eventually, even if you think you won't.
 
Yeah, you have to keep watching and playing against those "higher level" players to pick up the strategies. And don't fret about losing--it's ok to sacrifice wins to learn the timing, spacing, and move situations if you are serious about taking it to the next level.

On the other hand, you could be like me and just play whoever just for giggles. There's no shame in playing casually or just for fun.

I suppose, but getting closer just helps them set up these crossups and stuff. I guess chun needs to be at just the right distance for shotos.
