How is the PS3 stick compatibility? My PS4 stick didn't ship yet, but I have a PS3 stick. However, I don't want to bring it to a local tournament if the setup is a pain in the ass.

I have a SFxT pad, but it stopped doing roundhouses after a while, even ignoring the V-Trigger input when I had full bar, and just doing a Fierce Punch.

So I switched back to a standard DS4 pad.

It's a pain, and leaves lingering DS4s that interrupt games, but you may as well do it while everyone else is.
 
fucking karin lmao

took me waaaaay longer than I expected :P

for anyone that cares, the issue is that having any kind of texture in that stage causes bounce lighting which shows up on the character models, sort of like a fog. So using the typical chroma key green means that it's super easy to cut out the characters... but they're all green tinged.

using white creates a fog over everything

using NO textures fixes that, but photoshop isn't clever enough to distinguish between black on clothes and the black of the scene.

so for characters with black clothes I have to use this sort of middling grey colour which doesn't cause much bounce lighting but is also at the same sort of shade as a lot of midtones on characters... so they become much harder to cut out (like Karin)


hope that was interesting for someone. If I could find a way to turn off bounce lighting it would be perfect...

Platinum awesome!

Thanks Garrett!

Gotta love playing against your best friend who is also your Street Fighter sparring partner for the last 20 years. We just did FT3 sets for about an hour. He ends up taking 4 out of 7. We are always evenly matched, back and forth like that. The best and most tense battles always result.

Street Fighter for life!!

Yo let's go!
 
Man I suck at this game. I feel like I can't play "mad" I guess. I actually played better when I was mad in SF4 with Abel. Here I just get blown up.

Wow great job Garrett! Could I request Laura? :3
 
their track record isn't looking good so far so we'll see?

If Survival Mode wasn't garbage, their track record would actually be pretty decent. Running through all of Story nets you one character, and running through SM on easy nets you a decent amount AFAIK.

Like, obviously it shouldn't be easy to obtain all characters via fight money, and maybe online matches should give a little more, but Capcom has to make it balanced either way.
 
once everybody uses their fight money on the first or second character no one is going to fucking have fight money to gamble considering how little you get from online matches and how dumb as hell survival mode is.
Yeah, I'm around 180,000 and with 50 a win, I need to win 400 more fights minus the occasional 1000's for upgrading rank.
It happens a lot in the FGC (I may or may not have lost money in Vegas last year), but if we are betting those Bison Dollars, I don't see why not. Premium costumes will still cost real money, it can make unlocking non-premium things more easier for many people. Plus it can be pretty hype to spectate a match and have something on the line. Though many places have anti-gambling laws, even on fake money.
EVO is in Vegas this year. How perfect. I would put a few bets in for sure.
 
Holy shit, got league up to super bronze ( scrubby I know) while getting my oppent to bronze with a perfect in the 3rd round.

I am surprised he didn't disconnected.

LE_alviverde you are more manly than many players in SF.
 
Had a great FT10 session with some Bison player (I was using Queen Mika).

The adjustments back and forth were so exhilarating.

I ended up winning but man it feels like Bison can really mash normals in your face over and over.

And I still have no idea what to do against the V-trigger EX head press thing.
 
Losing on normal 26-30.
Losing in ranked.
Losing in casual.

Why do I keep playing? haha

Fuuuuuuuuck, such an annoying night of fights.

I was stuck on that first bit too. Finally broke through just by cheesing the shit out of it.
Ranked is a trap, don't bother until they implement a goddamn ragequit fix
Casuals are casuals, you play em to learn
 
That Karin is clean. Wow.
Thanks :)
Platinum awesome!

Thanks Garrett!

No problem! :D

Sure! I still have Cammy and Nash to do (which will have to be tomorrow) but I'll try and do her right after.

Also... I'm going to bed for now but I've uh... started something

No idea what's going on with the textures or anything but that's tomorrow's problem. :P
I swear to god if I wake up tomorrow with a ban from Capcpom for this... lmao
 
Ive been sending: GG, "their character" v "my character" after each match. A lot of them I have lost, but the cool thing is I met someone who played against my friend at the SF3 northwest regionals in early 2000s. Only found that out was because he replied and noticed we had that friend in common.
I've gotten a bunch of lets train together comments and some great conversations with others. Most fun I've had playing a game even when losing.
 
I'm sort of concerned about Balrog. I'm not sure what they can give him to pry me away from Bison and his godly normals. Balrog had great, if not the best normals in IV (especially that cr.HP antiair), but it feels like the lack of crossups could really suck in this game. Maybe he can get a command grab or a normal overhead.

I beat normal with Ken, but I cant do it with Nash.

Nash Ive been cheesing my way through most of it, using his Medium Sonic Scythe (QCB + MK) to get distance, then just tossing out Booms to whittle them down. It works great till Ryu onward, then I need to actually fight, which has been really hit or miss depending on what they block and what I block. haha.

My ranked and casual Ive been getting losses, but a lot of them are close, and I usually know what I did wrong.

I need a big ole list of combos and punishes to use with Charlie, then I can just sit in Training for a while, haha.

So if anyone has some good Charlie tips/strategies/techniques let me know!
 
I hope Guile and Balrog are as different as the rest of the cast minus Gief and Ryu (I guess?) are.

1. What if guile doesn't have a flash kick?

2. What if guile has an aerial sonic boom?

3. What if guile has a command grab

4. What if guile has an aerial super?

5. What if guile has a jetpack now?

Two easy to do combos that don't require links or use of the stick is MP, LK, HP. This one doesn't require you to be kissing the opponent.

The other one is MK, HK, MK and requires you to be closer.

They both are standing, do a good amount of damage, have saved my ass many times and should get you started.

Yeah those are great! I like to use them as jump ins sometimes too, if I can get away with it, but then its jump LP, MP, LK, HP or jump MK, MK, HK, MK.

I tried learning Gootecks version of C.LK, F.LK, MK, HK, MK too, but I found it super hard to do consistently, haha.
 
Man its so disappointing, I spend so much time in training and doing survival only to go online and barely play because of nerves. It drives me nuts.
