[quote name='Knoxximus']Hey Jimbo, I'm not quite in the know...could you post a link for these interviews or please point me in the right direction?:bouncy:[/quote]Check his cag blog.
 
i'm sitting at around 2500-2800 BP. there are hardly any kens, i actually get a good variety of players although i'd say around 30-40% are sagats and maybe 20% ryus.

gief is giving me a lot of trouble. it seems like i have no option after green hand? it seems like a forced 50-50 of either throw or sweep. not only that but he takes so little damage, my j.hk - c.hp - EX tatsu - sakura otoshi doesn't even do as much as his jump splash into sweep so i can't make a single mistake.

the other guy who i'm weak against is bison. it seems like bison can camp all day and do fake headstomps. if i walk forward he does scissors kicks and then it seems like he has initiative to mixup or head stomp runaway.
 
did another round with Gigan on PS3... we went like 18-8 in his favor.

seriously, if anyone wants to get beat down pretty hard, u should play him.

freakin random wakeup ultras >_< lol

Don't block low, just... block.
 
[quote name='Furashu']thanks.. lol
like i said im learnin :)[/quote]

You're not the only one, that's one of the reasons I hang out here.
 
Came across gigan while I was making rooms in Ranked Match, lol. His Honda is something else. Good game, almost had you for a second.

You don't have to standing block. You can low block a Shoryuken too. Any block animation at all will not allow a Shoryuken to go through unless you press something midway. Maybe you're getting combod from a jumpin attack.

You sure about that? I've fought enough Kens to know never to crouch block.

Positive. The Shoryuken isn't an overhead and doesn't hit low. It just has insane priority, so if you do anything BUT block you'll get trumped.

If you got hit with a Shoryuken by blocking low, you were probably hit with a jumping mk/hk before Ken landed first.
 
[quote name='Mr. Beef']Might as well have a FGT tournament. Guaranteed to run smoothly, I bet.[/QUOTE]

Word, the FGT STHD tournament was run much more smoothly than the regular CAG tournament.

My first round opponent still hasn't contacted me. =/
 
ggs to jekki and beef!

i think jekki figured out my honda pressure game. i had to really mix it up with him.

beef's claw was hella good. I only won by luck! lol

wait, so there's a cag tourney? aw man, I woulda loved to have joined that. so when's the fgt tourney gonna start? the games been out for 2 weeks now and those that i've faced from here have enough skills to keep it super interesting.

yeah but cross over then block low and it still hits.
i get pwned by this. i cross over then block low cause i know the dragon punch is coming and it still hits.
frustrates the heck outta me!
 
so i just got word that my local best buy (Downey, CA) will be having a sf4 tourney next weekend. so I haven't heard about it before and now i'm wondering whether it's a national thing or if it's just my store. is this happening around anybody else's area or just mine?
 
Apparently, they want to keep Mr. Wizard's "announcement" under wraps, since Capcom hasn't announced it yet (they plan on it, though). I'm sure the last thing EVO needs at the moment is for a sponsor like Capcom to pull out at the last minute.
 
anyone wanna play me? need some practice before my tourney match..

also wanna practice my rog and receive some advice/tips from whoever i play.

play in 15 mins?
 
[quote name='notorious_pip']No way, man. That's the lag switch I used in our T5DR matches. j/k[/QUOTE]
That shit was so laggy. :) I hope T6 isn't like that. I'd really like to be able to play it online without losing my patience.
[quote name='ninja dog']bitch my lag switch got ground effectz an' chrome[/QUOTE]
Damn son, you got a pimp model. Hook a brotha up!

Honestly, bad netcode + bad network = essentially a lag switch. You don't need one if you play T5DR online.
[quote name='Arikado']Confirmation of the rumored MvC2 port to XBL and PSN? http://forums.shoryuken.com/showpost.php?p=6203459&postcount=593[/QUOTE]
Oh fuck, oh fuck! Come on, have online play on par with HD Remix. . .:drool:

They licensed GGPO a while ago, didn't they? They better damned well make use of it.
 
I'd imagine it would have to have GGPO. The reason it wasn't used in SF4 was a processing constraint because the game had a lot more visual overhead than HDR did, and MvC2 can't be very taxing on modern systems.
 
[quote name='trajin']a tourny at downey best buy am down the street from it am so there[/QUOTE]

haha awesome! I'm thinking of going in honda face paint, but then again, i dont' want to look like a fool or anything... lol I"m still debating with myself.

yeah, my friend told me about it and signed me up last time he was there. hopefully I do ok.

The best part was the lag would be okay with a full room, but once it was just you and me, it was a lagasmic explosion.

Hell yeah. Shit was tuuuurrible. It made no sense at all. :)
 
I broke 3000 BP today... actually I'm up to around 3200 which aint bad. I had a pretty long streak going then got beat by a 3800 BP Vega...... just barely. :(
 
[quote name='hankmecrankme']I currently have 0 BP's. I haven't played a single ranked match.[/QUOTE]

Neither have I. I just feel like with my current controller setup, it'd be needlessly frustrating. I mean, hank, you know how pissed I get as it is in a player match... clearly it'd be bad to play for keeps right now.
