It's fairer than you think it is.

Don't you want to be grabbed by my Laura though? She's a pretty sweet girl



I've been enlightened! I know exactly why it's fair now...

Wait, no one refuted anything. Just posting memes and lamo's in place of an actual response.
 
Is that the one where he throws the chain in the air and grabs you?

Yeah, it's BS.

Then again, every characters who combos lead into grabs are fucking horseshit design imho.

It's like they're designed for those who just want to grab spam all day.

The air chain grab? Just don't jump lol. And it's super easy to punish if he doesn't make the right read.
 
I'm surprised how bad my matches are connection wise. Barely any issues in Beta, and I'd figure it would get better on release because of more players. :(

This surprises me. I've had actually a really smooth experience so far, bar the random logouts from day 1 and 2. Relative to say, MKx, this netcode seems helluva better.
 
Mika has an SFIV backlash, hate it when a character have idle recovery animation at the end of their backdash, just extend the animation if you want a slow ass backdash!
 
I don't understand what there is to refute. Why is someone grabbing you less fair than them hitting you?

Bc you can't block grabs I guess

I was wondering why sometimes people would just be standing there to get grabbed/hit
 
Capcom, I love you, but everytime I get randomly disconnected in the middle of a survival it puts me one step closer to wanting to break the game disc and mail it to you.

Well I'm in a remote area, so my connections are never going to be great. It's just they were way better in beta which confuses me.
 
Finished watching the Wednesday Night Fights archive.

I already enjoyed watching Snake Eyez. But him on new Gief is a thing of beauty. It's so damn fun to watch!
 
Believe it or not, this is me not being an ass. And trying to understand.

*shrug*

No offense but your responses came off less "I'm trying to understand" and more like: "I'm trying to rile up the person."

I just don't like simple combos that lead into grabs, that's all.
 
I think the matchmaking servers prioritize five-bar connections? I set mine to ask me instead of automatically select and noticed I only got those.

Which might explain why it takes so long to get matches sometimes, if the server is trying to find the perfect match.
 
Did I say I hated grabs? No, I think grabs are fair. I just hate the combos some characters have that lead INTO a grab.

Why? I guess I don't understand what the problem is. Whether it combos into a grab or just more hits it's still a combo so the only relevant function there seems to be the total damage, which doesn't always favor combos that end in a command grab (of which the only ones I actually know of are Crush Counter combos).

You can't combo into a grab unless its a super, that thing Laura does is just attack w ith a grab like animation, and grapplers like Birdie have numerous shortcomings to pay for their grab abilities.

The first one was a joke. The second one was the understanding part.

When their combo ends, neutral jump and watch them whiff their grab. Then punish.

I..don't think that's what he means? Isn't he talking about thing's like Mika's grab/hit move where she throws you back in the corner and stuff?

It's just another combo though.

Dude 90% of your posts are the "this game is BS" / "this move is BS". If you actually need help, you should maybe think the problem is with you and then say "maybe I dont know this match up or move, can someone give me some pointers" instead of assuming it's the game. Its like the dude earlier saying cornering was cheap.
 
I actually got a 3 game win steak in ranked. I'm like freaking out over here because I've been losing every match. Finally starting to grasp some of the basic mechanics and having more fun. Games are really close and it gets the heart pumping like no other game.
 
I'm getting tired of losing in ranked, does anyone wanna play a few rounds in a lobby? CFN name is EdziPS, I'll make a lobby with pw 5555.

Is this where he said Gief was the worst character? :p

;_;
 
Not surprised you are that high while playing Karin. She has very easy mixups that people fall for. My friend mains her and is almost at 4k. Seems people haven't figured her out yet at all.

Those mixups are pretty garbage once people figure them out lol. Hardly anyone I play falls for them. I rely mostly on her solid buttons.

Its oike the dude earlier saying cornering was cheap.

Half the time I say the game is BS, it's either:

1. The game's numerous connection issues. (Like the fact that 3 of my wins today didn't count in ranked.)
2. The game seemingly being unfair (things like holding back to block and the game just not doing anything. I've had this work and sometimes not work. It's odd.)

I'm sorry I'm not praising the game at every facet. I like the game, I've been playing the hell out of it. It's just it can get me really frustrated. Most of the time, there's nothing BS, people beat me in online, it happens, often. It's just there are those moments where it just didn't feel right. Like the game decided there and then to stop working properly.

Why? I guess I don't understand what the problem is. Whether it combos into a grab or just more hits it's still a combo so the only relevant function there seems to be the total damage, which doesn't always favor combos that end in a command grab (of which the only ones I actually know of are Crush Counter combos).

I guess it just feels like whereas other combos you could sort of break out of, that the grab combos are something that there's no defense for. It's just annoying when I play against Laura and it seems like the third hit of any of her combos goes into a grab that greatly increases the damage done.

I suppose... but I haven't seen much of a shortcoming yet.

I suppose I misunderstood and I apologise.

I'm talking more like thins with Laura where she can hit you twice and then within an instant go into a unqiue combo grab (different from the one where if she just neutral gabbed you.)
 
Is this where he said Gief was the worst character? :p

;_;

Nah, he said it today lol

I meaaaaaan...if Gief is low tier at least counterpicking will be easier in this game.

I guess it just feels like whereas other combos you could sort of break out of, that the grab combos are something that there's no defense for. It's just annoying when I play against Laura and it seems like the third hit of any of her combos goes into a grab that greatly increases the damage done.

Well it's a cancel. Your ability to break out of it is the same ability you have to break out of something like cr. mk into fireball. Pretty much nil. For what it's worth, the Laura's grab move is actually a hit. If it's not combod into somehow you can just block it like it was a hit.
 
Is there a way to tell if someone redeemed a costume code and is lying about it not working?
Here's the thing -- the costume code works kind of weird, at least it did to me. I entered it and all it said was "Your token has been redeemed" and then took me back to the PlayStation Store. Didn't find the costume in my downloads, nothing. And in the game, it wasn't there. Had to close the game, re-enter, then it appeared in-game. Very different from any other DLC I've ever used, thought I had a bad code at first too.
 
That level 29/30 struggle is real

Needed to do it 3 times with Ryu and once failed with Nash in the last Match, it was so close and it's the worst feeling to loose against this cpu.

I need to fight fire with fire, I need to find out the best way to fight against the last cpu fighters.

I wished that the life wouldn't need to recharge, I really dislike it how you health doesn't recharge and your opponents getting stronger and later you don't get a choice to choose the other options because you need that life (at least I needed it).
If I only could choose the attack or at least the defense buff...
 
Posting again for the new page, but if anyone wants to play a few rounds I've got a lobby open. CFN name is EdziPS, pw is 5555.
