Those sf5 sticks really come out the day of sf5 release? I need to buy a stick and have it before the game comes out. What's my best bet? I want that blue TE2. Sexy af.

 

[Shun]

Nice Makoto Bananapass you got there. I'm guessing you can get any im@s character as a card?

Yeah they have a whole line and collection for the iM@S 10th anniversary for all the 765 characters.

No zoners, no buy.

Maiko isn't playable sorry

 

[Karsticles]

What's up with Marie Rose's little twirly moves, and Lei Fang's arm wavy move?

Thanks for letting me know, man. :-(

Advanced holds and parries. Somebody presses a button they are parried and you can open them up. Those two have all the tools to handle anything thrown at them.

Awesome! I hope you can get CG passes also.

I'm totally late but after hearing someone here mention "the best Sol mirror ever" on NLBC tonight, I had to look into it and I was not let down. Holy fuck. :lol

15 ms of lag on a display compared to a faster one would make it garbage tier and the complaints would be endless. But 15 ms on a controller (even worse because it only puts you at a disadvantage) is somehow not important anymore?

Not saying the testing methodology being used there is proper (I don't know) or that those sticks actually have the stated amount of input lag but I've seen the above sentiment a few times and always get a chuckle out of it.

It's always nice to minimize input lag on your end when you play on different types of set-ups in general. Still baffled as to why input lag testing on arcade sticks isn't already a standard practice in the FGC.

Exactly.

I would think that if stick lag were a noticeable problem that players like 801 Strider would not be using "laggy" sticks in tournaments. Highly seasoned players would feel it, same as they can feel a laggy monitor.

If any madcatz stick had terrible lag (ie 16ms or more) the entire competitive FGC would notice and tell each other not to get it.

If the numbers on those charts are real (which I'm skeptical about), I would like to know why there haven't been numerous, noticeable complaints from top players yet.

I'm surprised this is coming from you of all people.

Stream tournaments long enough and you're certain to run into a bunch of know-nothing know-it-alls complaining about input lag on both ends of the spectrum. ("Your shit obviously lags" when it actually doesn't, or "feels fine to me" when something is 2+ frames behind.) There's a reason why I've sunk a few hundred dollars into equipment primarily used for latency testing; I need to cover my bases for these kinds of situations. Even some "top players" have been blown up for making a stink over imaginary lag on tournament monitors on Twitter when Art/Spooky had testing equipment on-hand to call them out on it.

Pretty much all of the criticism I've seen directed at Teyah's results has been embarrassing and anything but scientifically sound. He's explained his testing method pretty thoroughly. If someone has a problem with it, it would be quite easy to duplicate his tests and see whether they're accurate and consistent or not.

Like this skeleton "stick"

This guy is one of my friends at school and goes to the fighting game club I run, it's great

im sorry for your loss

 

[Astarte]

I still have quite a few PS3 sticks so I'm a bit :/ about buying a stick just for PS4 when the Skullgirls driver exists. I know that no one besides Capcom will even think about that shit so I guess I'll take that L.

Tell him I'm a fan, his stuff is great

 

[SquirrelSoup]

I just bought Arcana Heart 3 LOVE MAX (Heard it was the closest thing to a Yuri fighting game) Is it any good? Deep fighting mechanics?

Yeah, it's great. Really deep, lots of options. Swell character lineup, made even better with all the arcana choices.

it amuses me that NRS was the one to make sure to implement it, when I'm pretty sure the vast majority of MK players prefer pad. I know I prefer pad on MK despite primarily using a stick

If someone has a problem with it, it would be quite easy to duplicate his tests and see whether they're accurate and consistent or not.

also the only other actual testing I've seen, that video post here where the guy hooked up both sticks and just tested clashing normals, corroborated Teyah's results. That wasn't the most scientific testing, but it is the only other thing out there that isn't hearsay and it agrees with Teyah

I much prefer Hori sticks shell to mad catz. Slopes for your palm rather than plexi, and non of the bullshit that came with the TE2, but since I couldn't find an HRAP4 hayabusa I skipped hori. That input lag is bad on every stick since the HRAP4 Kai

whatd you use, MKX pad?

 

[Beckx]

Reposting my question whether' anyone has a Brook converter and how it's working for them (ideal if you're using the 360 to PS4 version, which is what I need)

Just spent a million fucking hours preparing for a trial I have tomorrow for a case I inherited from someone else at the last second and came to the conclusion that I am absolutely fucked.

Throw coffee at the opposing counsel, that seems to work p.good to discredit their position.

there's not a day that goes by I'm not glad I fled litigation. ya'll are wired all strange

 

[notworksafe]

whatd you use, MKX pad?

Yeah 2x MK pads for my quad mod. All the rest are MC Cthulu/Imp/MadCatz Xbox pads, which I think are on the list.

Fighting Zato reminds me of fighting Dark Phoenix

Have you watched Evo 2015 top 8 for Xrd? There's a lot of Ogawa play there, which means you can see how top players handle Zato. Ogawa is in his own tier of Zato play - no one comes close. I was watching grand finals of a stream with Zato last night, and it was laughable compared to his divinity.

 

[jbug617]

Seems like Tokido has been playing KI. He, Mago and Momochi talking about it on Topanga. Can't tell if he likes it or not.

 

[Line_HTX]

I highly doubt that Zato plays like Dark Phoenix. That would be too good for Zato.

Didn't know there was a new Metal Slug game coming, and its non-mobile to boot. EXCITE!

Haven't heard MadCatz' R&D lead (MarkMan) dispute the article, so that pretty much confirms its accuracy to me.

It's ryu and a bunch of characters I don't care about

Sounds about right

He said something about it a long time ago when Teyah first started posting the tests.

 

[notworksafe]

He said something about it a long time ago when Teyah first started posting the tests.

I’ve seen test results on Teyah.net (great research btw) and videos and postings in the past. Yes, some PCBs react slower (milliseconds) vs others. Is it detrimental to gameplay? At the tested ratings, no. If it was, we would make changes to improve the product, as we’ve done throughout the life cycle of said products. Additionally, we wouldn’t see the results (from tournaments) that we’ve seen over the past 5 years if it was a game changer.

[CO_Andy]

MarkMan's right in saying it hardly affects gameplay when guys like Daigo are steamrolling his adversaries just fine on the TE sticks.

Metal Slug Attack is the mobile game.

 

[Lostconfused]

The TE sticks also don't fall in the range where it would really matter either. Well all of them except for 2 variations of the PS3 stick, older ones from the looks of it.

 

[BadWolf]

Yeah and didn't Momochi win EVO using a Madcatz stick after his own failed?

Doesn't seem to be much of an issue.

The same ones Daigo used to steamroll dudes when EVO was on PS3?

Good news! You don't have to!

Spoiler

Because its free to play.

how would i be able to tell you when i asked the question?

Well I certainly can't tell you because I don't know what year that is or what happened at evo then.

 

[notworksafe]

either way, i'm not too worried about it. especially if nothing i'm using is on the list anyway

Download the Core Fighters since it's free and buy whatever character you want to learn.

That sounded kind of weird, lol

Indeed
Think it was from Off,natural and DOA tier
Turned it off and didn't look back

off, natural, DOA, OMG

turning off is terrible. I hate when games dont at least have some motion, looks awkward as fuck. The natural setting is pretty good

 

[mbpm1]

You can have the kids play Nun Fighter with you

I swear I don't know how people notice jiggle in game unless it's win poses. I'm too busy attacking and moving to know whether or not breasts are swaying.
