Fighting Games Weekly | Oct 27-Nov 2 | A Lot Of Shit Went Down

they have the chromecast extension.

which, consequently, seems to be particularly stuck on the "medium" setting and looks like shit on a big screen with no way to up the bitrate.
 
Been wanting a Vita twitch version for the longest. Good lord these guys. I just got a chromecast to mess around with. It sucks to hear the quality is not that good on it.
 
Spoilers for the trailer: There's gonna be an EVO 2015

Here's hoping they hold it at a decent hotel this year

They've been gradually making their way around the strip.. while they could probably afford to have it hosted at a nicer hotel, there's no guarantee they'd be able to get the rates at said hotel down enough for a lot of the players to book there (say, any of the top hotels where weekend nights start at $300-ish).
 
Yeah the biggest issue is room, which there will be a lot more of at an off strip location. Off strip EVOs just aren't as much fun. :(

They seem to be able to get the price down wherever they go though. Caeser's and Paris years weren't that expensive. More expensive than Rio or LVH though.
 
Absolute Battle is going down here in Dallas Nov 14-16th and it's looking to be one of our biggest tournaments yet. We have Jan, Ranmasama, Busby, F-Champ, RayRay, Angelic and Noel Brown confirmed for Marvel and Snake Eyez, Native Impact, iRedman and a tentative PR Rog and Ricky Ortiz for Street Fighter. It feels good to see how my community has grown so much.

It'd be cool if you guys would check out the stream and help support our community. I'm gonna do my best to show that Texas and the South has killers too.

Definitely will check it out. Make sure to bop some people >=o

Does FindMyFarms still play?
 

No lies, I've given up on the dream but I'd love to see them go "Marvel Patch" and drop the mic at this point. My Twitter feed is already full of the most hilarious reactions to this stuff. :lol
 
Lol no it brings up that that game is one of the reasons the scene has variety now

I was kidding.

The main reason the Anime community look divided is because they're competing for 1-2 spots at predominantly Capcom related events and don't have many tournaments that are specific to their types of games.

So when the other 3 games don't get that spot, people say the other games are dead, which creates the actual mindset that they are dead and effectively kills the chances for the game.

Yup, which is why the community needs to try and pool together for events tailored to them a bit more
 
Where's the anime version of Strongstyle?
This is something that has come up multiple times over the years, and the conclusion everyone comes to is that it would just be easier to go to NEC. To be fair, every anime fighter gets run at NEC, even games that pretty much never show up at other majors. There's even a couple of JP players traveling to NEC for AH3:LM, Aquapazza and DBFC this year (which is really just kind of lol wut).
 
wait a second, i never got to ask when you originally posted that GIF kadey...

WHO'S HOLDING THE CAMERA!?

Sp00ky. Duh.

There is something photographers use called a tripod. It lets you hold cameras and stuff. I even have a cute little one for my phone when I want to watch streams on I use it.

So the Marvel patch does exist. In movies.

Cobalt, tonight we have fun again!
 
Marvel 4 doesn't exist, no reason to talk about the movies.

boom.gif
 
Damn, just realized I didn't back up my cell pictures, so all the shots I took of the Chilean arcades are gone :(

Lots of cool looking chinese made KOF machines I thought you guys would have liked. Also had a few shots of 'Dream Match' which is Santiago's version of Next Level basically. While I was there I saw they did weekly streams on www.twitch.tv/versuscl for any that are curious.

Also, shoutouts to the Chilean fgc for being awesome dudes.

Edit: Oh right, they had their own major this past weekend and invited J Wong down to compete. Looks like they streamed it from the versuscl channel too for anyone looking for the archives.

You erased them, corrupted or what? If any of that applies you can still get them back with a certain program. Happened to me before.

Robbed! I thought they would have been backed up on icloud, but looks like I never set up my icloud account properly because there's nothing there. Pretty dumb of me.

It's too bad, but I'll probably be going back there eventually anyways and I'm sure the arcades will still be there to take pics of. And in the end, they were only shitty iphone pics anyways!
 
Damn, the put-downs in this thread today. :O

So I'm tinkering with Unity at the moment. It's a cool program and I think there's a neat fighting game engine in there waiting to be discovered.

There is already a FG engine in Unity, but it uses hitcircles attached to animation limbs for detection, which is dumb. Hitboxes should have nothing to do with the animation in a 2D game. That's because, functionally, a 2D game using sprites and a 2D game using animations should be identical. The game is really about boxes moving around on a screen, but you understand what the boxes are via the characters.

Anyway, I'm running through the basic 2D tutorial stuff at the moment and the rudiments of a 2D hitbox system are already in there via 2D box colliders.

I'm going to try and make something neat for Christmas-time using sprite rips as a proof of concept. Provided NaNoWriMo doesn't kill me.
