Fighting Games Weekly | Apr 27 - May 3 | NeoGAF actually plays games?!

this man gets it. (although, it would appear as of now that they are "copying" instinct mode)

and fuck. now that I think about it, I wonder when we arte gonna hear about KOFXIV
Instinct is Dark Force from Darkstalkers. Capcom did it first =P
 
Yeah. I've been looking to get one for a while but none of the ones I'd spend money on are available.

That and Im still waiting to see if Capcom does anything with the lab zero driver when ultra releases on the ps4
 
So after spending almost 200 dollars to get Xrd up and running again on a wired connection - it's the worst its ever been for me. Didnt have a jsingle good match and every connection in my region was 0-1 bar connections.

The fuck?

The game was good to me online on my old PS3 when the Ethernet port actually felt like working, so it can't be my internet in general. I'm salty as fuck right now.

Whats the psn speed test looking like? Have you tried to play against someone with a reliable functioning connection?

Weird. Xrd is still solid as hell for me and I'd say it's def up there as one of the better netcodes for FG's. Try going into a lobby within your area and playing against those people? I'm from Toronto so generally the populated east coast lobbies net me 2 - 4 bar connections. I only see 0 - 1 if I'm in a west coast lobby, but even then the lag usually wont go above 7f.

I need more XRD practice. I'm terrible and would like to get better. Wanna play sometime? I'm from Kitchener

This reminds me that dark force was like the greatest waste. There was an opportunity to make char specific modes that were really interesting but it's basically just used for some invul frames in sticky situations.

Sure, though I'm really out of practice as I took a 4 month break. PSN is onem1c if you ever wanna get some games in. You can probably guess who I main(or mained once the patch comes out :( )
 
Xrd netcode is great for me as well (PS4 version at least). Maybe you're connecting to people too geographically distant?
 
is seam happening this weekend?



max is awesome and all but he's not special guest material, dude is like that chill friend you can just play games with lol. now mike ross on the other hand is eSports babeh!

Idk

Watts might not be able to afford his appearance fee Kappa
 
I just learned who Tomo Ohira was, god damn, apparently this guy was an SF2 god? Did he play ST? Why did he stop playing competitively?

It might be Valle for all we know and a new agreement for WNF.

You pansy! You stick with her through the good times and the hard times. Speaking of which, I never tried the last Xrd patch. My opinion of Xrd's netcode is still sour.

If you watch the Jeff Schaeffer videos he pretty much says Tomo quit when he discovered girls. I'm pretty sure he also quit because he had zero competition. He had no reason to stick around when no one could beat him. A lot of people quit when New challengers came out because it was slower than hyper fighting, and ST pretty much did nothing for the og scene, and practically killed the old school style of street fighter. People hated supers a lot. Lose 50% health for doing low forward? Ya, that didn't impress people.
 
Maybe taking it to

the Next Level Battle Circuit.

Eh? Eh?

He hated supers so much he quit immediately.

wow. That's a timeless reason. Sounds like a lot of people with Ultra's

Nuki would have quit fighting games if Daigo didn't bop his ass.

I would if Xrd was my main game but it isnt. The amount of things I gotta remember with this girl is already high enough, which was made painfully obvious by the set I had with RookieJet today breaking my big 4 month break I've taken from Xrd. I've already forgotten most of her execution timings and neutral shennanigans....And with the patch, not only are they nerfing her but they're making her execution even harder than it was before....I aint got time for that. Arc just dont want me to play her >:|
 
With a new Dota compendium out, and the KI thing, I really hope we see some cool and reasonable crowdfunding schemes for Capcom Cup.

"I have defeated every middle schooler at every laundromat within 10 blocks of my house, I now retire as champion."

I love Schaffer's stories about Tomo.

"I used to jump up and down with Blanka and mash jHP and nobody could stop me. Then Tomo hit me out of my move with Tatsu and that's how I knew he was the savior."

I was waiting for this post.

I find it interesting how for this reason, Valle said he would've quit if he beat Daigo at A3. Glad he lost, because he ended up giving so much to the community later.

Knock 'em down, do shit into knock down, repeat step 2 infinitely.

Did they change that?
