Fighting Game Headquarters |eSports| 4444 Life

I forgot to talk about it here since it's French related but there may be French readers here so let's go. I'm working for Red Bull France now and doing portraits for the new Red Bull Kumite competitors. The tone and goal is a bit the same as Ian Walker great "Casuals" series but it goes a bit deeper in personal stuff like hobbies, personal life... It provides good perspective about players and some fun trivia.
For example Crimson applied to Meltdown as a barman (his job) right before his win in Cannes, and was hired as a competitor right after. Infexious was working in a law firm, decided to quit and will be teaching mathematics next September as he wants to do a more meaningful job and give back to the community. So far players have been wonderful and giving great reasons to spectators to root for them, outside of just the game or characters. That's what I wanted.

Here you go if you can read French:
Mister Crimson, the country child
Infexious, the brain of Manchester

Unfortunately I don't think they plan to translate them in English so it will probably stay as it is. :/

don't read a lick of french but the idea of this is cool and i hope you see positive feedback from those that can actually read it

Sorry for this quick off-topic question: Based on this thread's title, is there a significance to the number 4444 in fighting game communities?

My xbox gamertag has 444 in it, just because I was trying to add random crap to the end of the name I wanted. I coincidentally am trying to get into fighting games right now though, so I don't want to be unintentionally walking around with some symbol I might not agree with.

Alright, cool. If it's just a wrestling meme, then I don't mind anyway. I tried Googling "4444 meaning" before, and I was getting all kinds of weird spiritual crap.
 
24 pages of changes for KOF 2.0 as opposed to cluttery 96 pages for Season 2.

KOF is sort of doing something right.

SF patch notes were more specific, actually putting damage values and frame numbers, rather than just "increased damage" or "added invincibility".

That type of stuff may not be useful to you, but it definitely was to SF players.

rumor has it the arcade build is PC and so there's some speculation it may get announced after the arcade launches.
That's be great. I just bought a Gpd win to game and pump out photoshop and blender stuff on breaks at work. I'd love try out kof 14 on it.

And I just sold one of my used ones for almost 3 figures ayyy.

Seriously fuck gdrom setups. Everything Naomi related is such a mess. Easily the most finicky hardware I've ever worked with. But I got CVS2 in my house because of it so it worked out.

Good luck with yours and be very careful lol

not possible that it is more of a pain than Model 3.
 
This is super rad. Eye tracking software used with Nage's Faust. Cool to see what information is important to Nage at the different stages of the match (beg, mid, end).

I don't know how to embed a tweet. If there is a better way to link a tweet id love to learn. So rad. :tup:

Yeah there's been stuff like that done before


This tech seems pretty cheap and available now so it's more of a question of accuracy/fidelity and if there is anything worthwhile to be gained from it.

MVC3 makes a guest appearance in Spider-Man Deadpool 16 this week. It appears Dracula is an online warrior.

Anyone here ever use a lumipro projector? Fits in your pocket and has hookups for HDMI. Was thinking it might be cool to rock it with the switch in portable mode for sets so folks aren't having to use such a tiny screen. Any noticeable delay?

so I just saw in gaming that (DR4 spoiler)
Frank apparently dies in DR4 and the DLC makes him a zombie
. aside from Capcom's somewhat odd handling of the franchise, I wonder what that means for Frank in MvCI?

eh, we took the switch to local BBQ place and played some vicious puyo puyo tetris waiting for food. it was fine, not sure a projector would be anything more than a novelty.

I don't want to see any of the new interpretations of old Capcom characters in MVCi other then as alts.

Which platform you getting Destiny 2 for, Kadey?
 
So these days who has better talent, WNF or NLBC? Because NLBC is stacked asf with talent (iDom, Smug, Dieminion, Alucard, others I'm forgetting)
