I've been out of the community for a couple of years after getting really into SFIV in 2011. The last tourney I participated in was Devastation where I got bodied by Noel Brown in my second losers bracket match. After that I got too busy with work and other things to practice. Looking to get back into the scene though, and I'm wondering if Ultra is worth the $15 upgrade on PS3.

Also, I'm watching fchamp play triple Phoenix on Twitch right now. What the fuck happened to UMVC3 online that allows this?

Save editing hack. It's glorious. Also allows other shenanigans like playable Galactus.

Yup, definitely not playing online again

Haha. That's just the a/a/a combinations. We still have a/b/a, a/a/b etc. left to explore. UMVC3, I imagine, might possibly be the game with the highest current ceiling in terms of combo potential - someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Maj, where are you?
 
SG's Evo side tourney has a 5k payout to Top 16. Too bad I won't make it out of pools lol

WTF happened to this game?! Getting more and more broken everytime I see it. I hope you can't play actual matches like that.

You can.

Online matches, yes. I don't see why offline matches couldn't happen.

Offline would have to be set up in advance. The players would need to prereg with their team.

It'd be interesting to see an actual tournament with it though. Or a small exhibition type of thing.

So, do you have to hex edit every time you want to play x3 of different characters?

Yeah nothing really comes close to it in terms of combo possibilities. The amount of crazy but impractical combos you can do in this game is simply mind boggling.

If you incorporate in the dead man glitch then the combo potential of the game is exponentially increased. We could be watching a combo video of the game 10 even 15 years now and it would still shock.

This is impractical for tournament play (or outright bannable) so you don't have to worry about going against 3 Vergils at EVO.

I do online ranked matches across all fighting games that I play. Unfortunately, don't have the time or the money to be going to tournaments.
