Fighting Games Weekly | Nov 3-9 | Tekken Our Jobs

i'm going to celebrate my big entrance into the big 3-0 with some virgin pina colada and some sangria.

as my fighting game skill start to decline due to age, i have wider range of excuses for my blowups.

as an older and much wiser player now, I'm also looking more into 3D fighters since they are a mature genre for mature players such as myself.

truly a turning point!

Hopefully you will reduce your salt intake as you get older.

Real old-man games are flight sims.
 
Is it that jab into light mgb? I think Maj found that one when super was fairly new.

Yeah, that infinite is oooooold. I've only ever seen it performed on Abel and Balrog, though.

Reminder that Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax releases next week.

CP2 9dan and below tournament
DBFC

No! My wallet! The only wallet to be affected by this!

Out of nowhere - new Street Fighter arcade release in Japan.

(Third Strike just got released on Nesica, and VSav & others are coming soon. Weird. I wonder if they'll make much money.)

I thought you meant the original SF for a second there.

PPMD and Armada to collude at Apex 2015
 
For my fellow TEKKEN fans and players...

Seems like today is gonna be a train wreck for me, also started playing Hearthstone, much more rewarding theory wise. Any big news I should be aware of? Thread is way too long to read with little time on my hands...
 

Played and streamed like 60 matches of Garou/Vsav2 on day 1,although the Garou part got cut off since I forgot to switch from hitbox to twitch until halfway through. Was alright except a lot of day 1 disconnects.

We might end up doing the monthly ggpo mystery game tourney there so nobody can have an excuse about port forwarding if it's smoothed out by that time.

Also now I ain't gotta hook up people with pyqtggpo gui just to use the unsupported room since it's already native to fightcade/ggpo-ng and the majority of the unsupported room games are on the general game list.

I'm curious, did anything in particular prompt this post or are you just trying to rally the troops?

I like Tekken, but goddamn do I find the series frustrating sometimes (which is at least partially due to being so goddamn bad at it).

Tekken 7 will most definitely alleviate those pains. They took out 80% of the okizeme so you don't have to worry about ever getting reset or relaunched for doing the wrong wakeup. They added the backwalk so you no longer need to learn how to Korean Backdash to even competently space. They added universal armor moves to deal with the 100's of character specific gimmicks. And lastly... ULTRA's! :P

EDIT: I'm not sure about resets... maybe they're still in if you don't techroll... oh well we'll find out this February for sure :)

It's obvious they're catering T7 for everyone that isn't hardcore on TTT2. Hope you all give it a chance.

I'm a Tekken 5 lover :P
 
Which T5? Because if it's T5.0.... ugh. This was the era when balance was a heretic concept.

Unbelievable music though.
