I'm gonna go back online for a bit. If any EU PS3 players want a go, send an invite to MikeProtagonist (Fei/Abel/Zangief/Rose/Dan/Ken).

I feel more pressure when playing online and this likely leads me to messing up the command inputs.TheFallen said:
I like to play more charge characters with the square gate MadCatz pad simply because their moves are easier for me to input than the fireballers. It will take time for me before I can execute the QCFx2 + PPP move 100% of the time.
Add me on XBL "puyo puyo puyo" and we can see who whiffs more Ultras :lol If you see my Dhalsim teleport around the screen instead of attacking you, you'll know the reason why.

I don't understand the "Dictator", "Boxer" and "Claw" thing.
My game always says "Bison", "Balrog" and "Vega".
Also my gamertag is Dark Octave if anyone is interested in losing.

I could barely get any consecutive games when playing as Claw(Vega) today since every single time I won I would get disconnected before the You Win screen transitioned or kicked out of the room after 1 win.
I think my blocked player list is close to the 1000s now from early quitters in general.:lol

I do win with him a lot, until I face a decent Sagat, or Blanka, or dictator._dementia said:
I know everyone has their counter pick's, but I want to play as someone who doesn't have to worry about losing a mask and claw/dealing minimal damage/being at risk 80% of the time.
I think I just have built up frustration against Blanka's, and want to head stomp someones face off.

As a Dictator player, I hate playing Blanka...even if the match-up is easy for him. The fight is annoying.

Totally flailing around but with a few combos thrown in for the intimidation and confusion factor that I just might know what I'm doing a little bit.

Dark Octave said:
dude thats exactly it.. :lol
he doesnt have many combos in the first place, and experienced players play almost more random than new comers so i just never know what the hell is going on.
I dont like playing against blankas or giefs... dictator, i like playing against its just frustrating sometimes.
Spiderjericho said:
Only thing I'm missing is roughly half or so of the Trials on Hard - the annoying thing is even some of the simple combos are a pain due to the new timing of the combo system, and on my end, I'm so used to double-tapping buttons that it's become a bad habit, and it screws up the combo...
Luckily when I'm on the stick I can break the habit of double-tapping, but then the timing doesn't come out right, and I think it's the stick's fault Hori EX3, since I know the timing like the back of my hand after all this time now...

its only inside Japan that their names are in JPN form,
outside of there, even in the rest of Asia, they use the Western names
the shock hit me in 1992 when my friend had an import Super Famicom and import SF2
i played in arcades during the summer of 1991 with normal Western names, then shocker on my friends SNES. . WTF?? the names are all screwed up
lol

I'm stuck on Zangief's Hard Trial 4. I can't get the standing light kick to EX Fist to come out fast enough. I tried for an hour last night on my TE stick. I thought I was gonna break the buttons from jamming on them so much.
Amazingly my Best Buy TE shipped. So I'm thinking about doing a Bat Top mod with an octagon gate once the orders die down on Lizard Lick. Man the 360nhas some nice games out for it and coming out that really benefit with the use of a Arcade Stick.

Of course hard wins should be rewarding, but it's not hard to see why he has it hard to compete. Should all characters be equal in complexity? no. However, you should be rewarded for mastering it, which you're not with Fuerte (exception being RSF). His moves are very punishable when he's caught and unlike Akuma, he has to get your face to fight with such cruddy health. The risk/reward is out of balance with Fuerte. It's just that simple. If Fuerte doesn't have meter, you can crush him on wake up alone (EX Leg Whip escape is sweepable bringing him right back down and EX Run can be armor broken by just about everyone).
He's quite fun, but the risk/reward ratio for him is seriously out of whack. This is kind of how I see Sagat being so beastly. He's very low risk and extremely high reward.

Kintaro said:
Oh, I'm not saying that there are not absolute balance issues. Yes, Sagat needs to have at least a few attributes toned down. Yes, Fuerte is objectively weaker than other complex characters (like Viper).
In point of fact, I'm hoping for at least one major character balance patch within the first year of SFIV's console life cycle after Capcom listens to the feedback of the high level players who are the best at breaking the game.
My feelings inspired by El Fuerte upthread were more related to the way that some people use tier mentality to be overly dismissive. I myself don't really believe in tiers as they are commonly used. I believe in characters that are unbalanced, but "tiers" should be created by player skill in the end. In SFIV, Sagat is "top tier" only because he is unbalanced compared to the median character in the cast. This is something that troubles me about fighting game design, in point of fact; that even more effort than already is spent by the developers does not go into erradicating automatic character tiers.
In the age of patchable console games, I feel that this should stop entirely, and that we should see constant balance revisions ala RTS games on the PC to keep fighting games fairly balanced.

I believe they will only re-balance the game with a new full fledged game a la Champion Edition or 2nd Impact.
speculation to who gets buffed or nurfed is blatantly obvious, especially concerning the Arcade first characters
and we always know they get it right in the last installment of a series (mostly) as it was with Super Turbo (not HDR) and 3rd Strike

does sakura count as a shoto? i sure as hell want to say 'no', considering she has none of the shotos strengths. Her moves kind of go in the same general direction as the shotos and she was raped by ryu. Is that enough to make her one of them?
