Thanks for the link, that's a really good site for finding match replays.
DC is such a beast, no respect from that guy.

I actually had a fun time playing Ultra with DeeJay the last couple of days. He's actually got some great anti air moves but the one character I have trouble against is Ken because of his speed.

Why does Blackule think GGXRD has too many mechanics? Feels like nothing compared to BB.

Maybe you need some more online matches. Someone should host another lobby this evening.
Yeah but Revelator and SFV come out in few months.
Yeah, I'm pretty much doing claw finger shit trying to hold fireball charges and whatnot. I need to see if there are better button configs I should be using.

I know most people here are deep in the Xrd grind, but does anyone here (in the US) still play Ultra on steam? I need some sets and I just can't deal with ranked anymore today. I'm forcing myself to play it specifically to learn how to deal with high risk and borderline stupid gameplay, as I'm usually too ignorant of the set ups, or too surprised at those decision to make the easy punish. It's basically like a deer in the headlights a lot of the time. I just want a regular old set without all the ranked fuckery, along with some gameplay critiques. I'll probably join in on Xrd tonight though. I've been itching to learn Axl.

I'm an Axl main so I may be able to help there. I'll join the room tonight if I can pry myself from Yakuza 5.

I was about to go for "it's not SF" but you're an animal

game feels jam packed to the brim with mechanics. I have BB downloaded but haven't played it yet.
Probably gonna stay that way tbh
basically lol, I feel like the same shit people complain about in SFIV is in this game but intensified.
SRK -> block? -> RC to safety/mixup
SRK -> whiff? -> Burst if they try to punish
Complain about the vortex? Welp

going through arcade a few times to practice this bnb has resulted in enough points to unlock sin

I find it seriously upsetting when I don't have one.
Oh okay, so they released a second version with online? How is the netcode?
We have a Revelator release date?

Yeah, if you think Xrd has too many mechanics than BB is going to be rough.
Congrats. Now you can be a MonHun player too.
All we know is that it's coming out in spring.

Faultless Defense Cancel. You kara-cancel her j.D into FD. With it you can hoverdash -> cross over, do double overheads & instant overheads.
Here's a tutorial https://youtu.be/79IaUVE5LmU?t=6m21s
Mynus and U-zen use it a lot in their play.
i just discovered cindi's fighting game noob thread. awesome thread, cindi! i'm following it now and i'll try to contribute with something other than joke posts for a change
also leona (kof 98) is really badass
prolly not

What's the most complicated mechanic that's not in Xrd? Being able to tech a throw?
Cindi Mayweather

Those who are thinking of an FC4, it was a great controller at first but now I have trouble inputting srk movement on the left side of the screen. Right side is fine. The right part of the d-pad has wear and is more soft even after two months of use. While a great controller I'm not sure if it's worth it if it wears out this fast. Another reason for me to move to stick.

There's something about a character dashing in front of you, freezing the screen, then grabbing you that feels kinda stupid tbh. It's like you know it's coming but you're pretty much screwed when the screen freezes
unless you can YRC back?
it's like every character has a kara demon

Going from SF/KOF style fgs to anime is crazy with all the additional mechanics. When I was first learning BB I remember being overwhelmed with all the universal bullshit it had, and I basically ignored most of them. After awhile of getting stomped, I started slowly adding them to my game as the situations demanded. I think after awhile, most of the mechanics will naturally start to click.
Thanks for the help. Once I'm done raging at Ultra I'll hit up Xrd and start grinding out some Axl basics.

I feel that mess of info will become less arcane more time you put into it. But if you think it's all stupid you may learn slower.

I mean.. they knew it was kinda stupid if they decided to add throw techs into Revelator

The people who make guilty gear are generally nuts, should be no surprise. It's like I don't expect sense form Valve, they are nuts.

Link to last Night's Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax Ignition Lobby tourney
Around 3:03:00 things in Grand Finals really start looking great and showing how this game can get with all the fast clashing and back and forth assist space control/setup mindgames.

you can still press buttons you know? it's motions that become a little difficult in the freeze. also yes you can yrc back to screw whatever they were planning too

Just jump. You're not screwed when the screen freezes.

Yea I just figured that out. Are jumps throw invincible at the start? So if Sol is trying to tick command throw I can just jump it if I know it's coming?
Yeah, they can't be thrown on jump startup. You also can't be thrown 6 frames after exiting hitstun, 5 for exiting blockstun.
It's actually the third major revision, but the second one (VF5:R) never got a home release.
The netplay is better than most delay-based games (and I suspect that the game does not fully enforce synchronization, as you will see some weird animation artifacts from time to time online). It's not amazing, but it's better than SF4 or ArcSys games. I would say it's roughly on par with TTT2 (which is more impressive for VF as it doesn't have any artificial input delay like Tekken does). The generous buffering helps a fair bit.

it only annoys me after i feel i've gotten enough of a grasp of a character to worry about what to do after i can land a hit. when landing a hit gets me punished it's time to find a bnb
never played one so maybe i'll try him out after i mess around with a few other characters
looks more advanced than i'll need for the foreseeable future lol
Lot of random places have old ass random games. Especially older games which were affordable for small joints to get.

ah you think everythings annoying bruh, i literally kept posting for games in the xrd thread last year to nothing, so yea, i would be surprised that people on gaf are still playing. it's not heavily advertised whenever i lurk.

Because, coming from #Reload/^Core, XXX does add more mechanics than XX had.
Like XX only had Roman Cancels, Burst, and Faultless Defense. (Oh and that Gold FD that ^Core added). Now you have that one mechanic that is like a throw-escape a la BB but is an Advancing Guard thing, Roman Cancel changes, insta-block, etc.

Instant blocking was in older GG games and don't forget AC added EX moves.
The plink method is really easy, doesn't take long to learn. It's the hold method that's hard and I still can't do it consistently.

its called Street Fighter V and comes out next month

You mean that last-second block that Blazblue has? I can't recall that being in the XX series. But my point is more that they've thrown various systems in in a post-Blazblue world. That I can't blame people for being confused by the various systems, double-so since XX was pretty "straight-forward" with minimal systems.
