Aint nobody got time for that.

Definitely needs a thread of its own, with EVO coming this week, there will be so many new players and people interested getting into fighters that could benefit from it.

Do it!

You know that moment where something is really funny but then hurts again? I think I am approaching the hurting part

#Put Cyclops & Sean in MvC5

Are there a lot of GAFfers attending Evo? I'll be one of the photographers this year ... would be cool to wrangle everyone for a group shot.

[BadWolf]

Is Tokido really better at Kof than Mexico and Korea' s finest?

He's much better now but I wouldn't say his chances are especially high to win because there are so many killers in the tournament and all are very, very close in skill.

Its really hard to tell who will take it tbh.

Well I'll be there! I'm getting-in to Las Vegas on Wednesday night.

 

[Busaiku]

I like how the Evo staff are trying to justify screwing over BlazBlue.
Saying this is the best time for the Japanese to watch.
1 to 3 AM on Monday morning is clearly better than 3 to 5.

I thought it had to do with flights or something?

 

[atomic moth]

I'm glad they put tekken on right after work hours on Friday.

Any earlier and there would be no viewers.

 

[kirblar]

MS/Nintendo scheduled flights around their games ending.

 

[Shouta]

I thought it had to do with flights or something?

Wizard said in the last thread, I believe, they set the schedule months in advance and it kind of got locked in due to various things with companies. It wasn't until after that they found out the final player numbers and the massive pot bonus.

 

[pixelish]

i'm waiting for the evo team to justify kof having only 3 hours of stream time.

 

[Busaiku]

This might be the first year Dogura doesn't win Guilty Gear.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

The explanation of catering to developer's flight schedules is pretty questionable. This isn't a matter of switching a game's final to a different day. It's switching order on Sunday. A mere 2 hour difference.

 

[Anne]

I'm not going to complain about BB at 9AM as long as nobody turns the TV off during Grand Finals. Weird it's not after KI but I won't complain.

No streamed pool play is kinda lame though. Actually the entire schedule for Saturday baffles me. KOF, Injustice, and ST finals before UMvC3 quarters/semis? I know people love Marvel but that just seems like weird scheduling. I guess the times just line up better for the venue or something? I'll keep my eyes out for somebody streaming pool play but I won't hold my breath.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

this is my exact same sentiment. how probable is it that the arc sys dev team has a fllight scheduled at the same time as ki finals?

Damn, Horseress beat me to the logical conclusion.

 

[Shouta]

Aw fuck, BBCP pools still fucked. Seems like Spark, Wuku, and Huey253 have to play each other fairly early on depending on how it goes to even qualify for Top 16. That's really ass as they're they've done really well in BB at Evo and they're basically the best from my region. >=|

 

[Dahbomb]

It's always a bit peculiar to not see many in-depth but basic guides for a game like MVC3. That game really needs a Vesper Arcade like mega tutorial series. I would honestly try to make one myself if I had time for it (plus the recording equipment and console/game etc).

So many things are taken for granted in that game because of its legacy from MVC2. People just assume that newcomers know how/when to call assists, do basic air combos (or even launch properly) and know how to construct a playable team.

 

[Immortal Technique]

EVO stream schedule is up
http://shoryuken.com/2014/07/07/her...wered-by-team-spooky-ipw-and-capcom-fighters/

Last year there were two streams for SF4 semis. Both streams had wall-to-wall killers in every match. Could be a lot of amazing matches happening off-stream this year. It would seem quite a waste if the Capcom stream stayed dormant instead of streaming the losers side of semis or something.

 

[enzo_gt]

The explanation of catering to developer's flight schedules is pretty questionable. This isn't a matter of switching a game's final to a different day. It's switching order on Sunday. A mere 2 hour difference.

The point is that it was scheduled months before they had entrant numbers, etc. Everything people are using as ammo for why BB should be going afterwards. The difference in time is irrelevant too, as they probably have meetings/interviews scheduled as well.

BBCP had less entrants than KI?

I think the community might help BBCP pools getting streamed.

Useless Nitsuma interview is useless.

Says he would like to make Capcom All Stars if given opportunity.

That wasn't useless. It was gold!

Miguel Fuentes: Please take the DC license from NetherRealm Studios so we can have a DC vs. Capcom

Niitsuma: Great idea! I would really love to make that Capcom's next fighter!

DNAngel: Capcom vs. SNK 3? Or Rival Schools 3?

Niitsuma: Not at this moment...

ROFL!

 

[SloaneRisette]

Yo, Shouta/Beef/Vulva/Q, we should get something going for a big group on Sunday to watch finals together if you're all up for it.

Also, got a confirmation, so my room will be open for USF4/UMvC3 casuals with you guys.

It's a shame the strategy guide is out of print. I'm one of the few UK owners of it. It's exactly what a newcomer needs to get started.

 

[Dahbomb]

Useless as in it was a lot "I would like to make that" without actually making confirmations on anything.

EITHER PUT UP OR SHUT UP SON!!!!

It's a shame the strategy guide is out of print. I'm one of the few UK owners of it. It's exactly what a newcomer needs to get started.

Even the strategy guide isn't enough. There is only so much you can teach in a book, you need like hours of videos to just cover the basics of stuff.

Like you can't teach someone how to block or avoid standard "call beam assist, teleport" mix up from a book. You have to show it in a video, slow it down if you have to and show various alternatives to said mix up/escapes. People still don't know which direction to tech in which situations (although not as much of a weakness to have in MVC3 due to TODs but there are still situations where you can make things worse for yourself if you tech improperly).

 

[Anne]

Yeah, we asked on twitter and Alan is poking around the usual suspects. If anybody finds anything lemme know so I can put it on Dustloop.

 

[Busaiku]

No streamed pool play, but instead streamed quarters is definitely ok.
Besides Pops and Grandia and Lord Knight and Shouta

Spoiler

actualy KOG

, we're not really missing any exciting matches.

Plus, overall, it gets more stream time than any of the other smaller games.

 

[Horseress]

That wasn't useless. It was gold!



ROFL!

so DC vs Capcom is more likely to happen than a new Rival Schools or a new CvS

You need someone to practice with to actually learn how to block it in a real-life match though.

If you're picking up UMvC3 this late into the game's lifespan, given that the online play is near unplayable I'd hope you actually have people you can play with locally.
