Whoa, what the hell.

I just countered Chun-Li's Kikosho with Goukens low counter. Is that supposed to happen?
Kikoushou isn't armor break, and will stop on a trade hit. It's also only invincible until activation, not through it, so it'll trade against certain attacks like Balrog's dash punch.

This engine never ceases to surprise me with some of the incredible bullshit you can discover. Also just hit a Chun-Li with Fei's counter ultra when she was crossing him up with df HK, although I knew about that already, it just seems like a strange design decision for him to be able to counter a kick to the back of his head, then again, Street Fighter isn't exactly known for its realism.
Wait, you're complaining that Fei Long's U2 actually works on something?

Besides, if it were realistic he'd tilt his head over and grab Chun's leg on his shoulder. :p

I was thinking to myself how I am inspired to stick with DeeJay, hopefully its the same for others
except makoto players, I understand.
Yeah, dunno if it means anything but DSP won the first SSFIV tourny in US with Deejay.

I just bought the cheap 50 dollar arcade madcatz fight stick. Out of the box Square and X buttons do not respond fithout pounding on them very hard, it doesn't execute the commands. Are there fixes or mods I can perform to help me out with this. Can you guys steer me in the right direction? Thanks.

It seems with the more forced hits I get out of this thing, it seems like its getting more responsive as I wear it out. Not sure about this. Does replacing the buttons solve this issue if I order the Sanwa snap-in replacements?

Sanwa buttons are very responsive, so probably.

In a gameshop with random flowchart people? I watched those videos and the only decent player is that chun who somehow choked in the final round. TBH right now he's nowhere from being decent and I think almost every youtube sf4/ssf4 channel owner can own his ass.

Read what I quoted... I was saying Deejay is nowhere near as bad as people are saying. He was playing him like ST DJ and still won, scrubs or not, it still shows something about his potential.

I simply don't think his opinion on sf4/ssf4 worth something tbh. He's probably the first one calling adon "such a bad character" on youtube btw.

But certainly not the first one on the Internet. Especially here.

DSP in game hype mode is a different DSP. And for the record, he usually just calls players trash instead of characters.

GGs to the Late Night Crew on PSN GAF Chat: Panda, Eraldo, Hito, Gibration, Xeno, Q, and floyd...

I had the answers for dat Oil, but Sak was too much for me, Panda.

And I hate you, Floyd. I was getting better against your Duds, but by that time, you had switched to freaking Abel.

played some matches today... Hakan is really hard to play really good. I mean you have really dependent on some of his moves to win matches. :\

Also Dudley is fun to play, he is really different than what he used to be in 3rd Strike.

Hey guys still here in Vegas thought I would update on my status. I was in Pool K with vangief, aulord, shadyk, laugh, and etc. I got to quarterfinals with my record being 7-2. Played vangief who put me into losers than a Honda who I think was Skye who knocked me out. Proud to say I did the best out of Dallas besides Buktooth. Repped Cody all the way.

Had sabre tell me my Cody was pretty good although he's on another level. He perfected Buktooths ibuki to beat him in losers of his pool but lost a close match to Li Joe to get knocked out.

Crazy good times here, met Daigo and Markman, even had Daigo apologize to me for canceling the match I challenged him to haha.

Having crazy fun though, bout to head out for another round of money matches. Learned so much, gotta practice it!

Does anyone know if you can mash out Gen's PPP Ultra 2 after Super?

I know in vanilla, I could get Super~Ultra easily without mashing, but the timing for getting full PPP Ultra 2 after a Super seems a lot stricter and online pretty hard to pull off.

Have a feeling I'll be rebuked for looking to buy a used copy but quick question: if I buy a used copy will I be able to play on XBL still? I don't actually own a 360 but I will probably buy a copy for myself to play on a roommate's 360.

:D nah its alright, my aim is to only play against gaffers ( whom I inherently cannot get mad at :3 <3 )

also, dropping makoto for good. Playing her has a debuff on your health, blood pressure permanetly X2
 
Hey guys. I'm a Makoto mainer! I got a couple videos of me practicing with a friend of mine and I was wondering if you guys could offer any advise for how I can improve or change my game.

^Makoto vs. Bison^

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kvn6AChKXxY
^Makoto vs. Sakura^

Neither character is my friend's main. He's much better than me, but I can hold my own when he's goofing around :lol

So what do you guys think?

These two tutorial vids are a good start:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GE7uaPc2Y2s

Also, I recommend this thread on srk it shows you how to do a lot of meaty setups although they are all character specific because a lot of cast members have slightly different wakeup times.

jam86 if you're on here, sorry that i chipped you to death with the super. kind of an asshole move


edit: haha n33ss the time i did it to you was an accident, i swear!

I don't remember i was so tired but it's all good anyway :D, I stayed up way to late for having work so early in the morning. I didn't wanna leave until after my turn so it didn't boot anyone out since I was host, I dunno if they patched that recently though...
 
GGs to Timedog, I need a lot of work with my characters, but I think I'm recognizing the holes :D I spend too much time in training, gotta work on that data or I get too easy to read.

I had an epiphany with my pressure string, though, I'm gonna get a lot of big combos from that in the future :D

Overhead to roundhouse is not just a dream!

So what do you guys think?

As far as against Bison, you did well in not jumping in as Makoto's jump in's are of the few he can AA consistently. From the vid it seems your main trouble is knowing what to block and punish, I noticed your friend was throwing out a lot of ex scissors and some other unsafe scissors outside of combos, if blocked those could have been punished.

Bison's Ultra 2 if your on the ground when he activates it you can just jump straight up to avoid it, if caught in a situation where your jump won't get you past his head level when he lands stay on the ground and figure out where he's gonna land and block high *this can be hard, he can choose to cross up if he wants*.

Ugh, I'm starting to get so tired of some of the shit I have to put up with playing as Vega. And I'm not talking about his character weaknesses but the way people play my Vega.

I know some of you think it's annoying fighting Vega or my Vega, but it isn't half as bad as the shit I have to put up with. People using SRKs, Balrog headbutts, flash kicks, Cody bingos, HP thunder knuckles, Juri EX pinwheels, Adon/Dee-Jay rise kicks, etc... like they're safe pokes. I'm constantly dodging randomness since people don't seem to know any other way to deal with pressure. The worst part is that I bait it out and punish it probably 80+% of the time yet people keep doing it. It's like everyone has this mentality of been satisfied with winning one or two matches here and there when there randomness lands but losing the rest. It's also tough since a lot of these people who get random when getting pressured are also good players (a lot of GAF is guilty :)). So it's like dealing with the random recklessness of a flow charter combined with someone who has decent footsies, can combo well, and knows match-ups.

Then there are people who play run away despite me having a substantial life lead. It's always funny when I decide, with the life lead, that I'm sick of rushing down into someone's randomness so I hang back and they freeze for a few seconds before realizing they need to attack if they actually want to win. Though a lot of times my impatience gets the better of me and I continue to play offensively. Only to get rewarded by attacking into a headbutt -> ultra, or juri ex dive kick -> ultra, or ex seismo -> ultra, etc...

So many people complain about the defensive nature of the game but then invite it by showing their opponent they aren't afraid to play randomly or run away even when losing.
