yeah but you see, they didn't even run round robin pools for anything, they just did the regular double elimination pools, no resets

extremely limited setups+all the crossgame stuff (also 4v4 being stupid to organize)+poor management on an event that really should've been two days led to that mess

There's no way you can run Smash 4 singles, doubles and 4v4. That is a fucking nightmare right there when it comes to delayed brackets.

It's gotta be doubles OR 4v4. Not both.
 
I can see Daigo chillin in his hotel room right now thinking like..

I only gotta play like 3 matches and I'm gettin paid $1million Yen. baka gaijins wwwwwww

I can understand this constant typoing KOF13, but please step it up folks.

Seriously though, these sets are amazing. I want oldgame tournaments forever.

There should be a Road to Evo series just for CvS2/MvC2/ST. I'd like to see these players facing off in these games more often.

And we pretty much look for the same things in a good fighting game, so I often pay more attention to your posts. I like SF4, though, especially since I play Viper. But yeah, even though Soulcalibur 2 was my first game, Melee pretty much set my standards as far as what I wanted from fighters going forward.

Actually, now that I think about it, SC2 has some of the same strengths.


The neutering of fighting games series has to stop.

For Day 3, you certainly had a better spacial awareness with both Rosa and Luma than I've seen with people who've played for a while. I'm never not going to see that time on Battlefield Omega I got near full screen bait set up into a Luma upsmash. :lol
Click to expand...

that makes me feel good, despite that bodybag you sent me home in lol

but seriously, i'm having such a hard time keeping up with what's going on with rosalina and luma when trying to use both that it's hard to notice other stuff. it doesn't help that i can't really control luma. the fact that luma is always doing something i'm not expecting only makes it worse

Meanwhile, in the Playstation Experience thread, an insider throws something out there:

You can only choose one option. And whilst there is a right answer, that doesn't mean there isn't a wrong one. It's not like I know...

Your choices:

a) SCEE announces a first party exclusive to be released in 2015, which is not a re-master.
b) SCEA announces a first party exclusive to be released in 2015, which is not a re-master.
c) SCEJ/A announces a first party exclusive to be released in 2015, which is not a re-master.
d) SCE announces no new PS4 exclusives, but one or more re-masters to be released in 2015.
e) SCE announces no exclusives at all.
f) A new exclusive from Capcom is announced for PS4.
g) Next generation Mass Effect is unveiled (footage, title etc.).
h) Street Fighter is announced as an exclusive to PS4.
i) Rockstar unveils their next generation game.
j) Valve announces an exclusive for PS4.
k) Knack 2 is announced.
l) A new IP by a third party is announced.
m) FFVII remake is announced.

I think its very fair. The time limit is from when you take the bet until Christmas Day. You lose if your chosen option doesn't come to fruition by that time. The chosen option has to be fulfilled as written. For example, if SCEE announce a new exclusive, but don't mention it's releasing in 2015, you lose. I've given an easy out, and plenty of reasonable choices I feel.

But don't take the cowards way out. Live dangerously.

If you lose, I choose your avatar and you have to wear it for 4 months. But it can be whatever. You can't modify it. You have to wear it as a symbol of pride.

The can would always use up the first air dodge since it can KO, and then he could hit you himself since his range is strong. Also, I have never actually encountered a situation where an opponent spammed air dodges and it saved him. Especially with their inbuilt landing lag. Just bait it and punish.

So you're telling me DHD has good edge guarding tools

Playing Smash Bros. and can't even message people while online. Wii U menu not accessible. 21st Century and everything Nintendo. So unbelievable.

What are people supposed to be betting on? And what is he trying to say? That one or more of those things will end up bring true?

That has to be one of the worst "leaks" in recent GAF history. The "attention whore" scale is off the charts.


Although no Last Guardian on there is hilarious as fuck.

It's avatar bets for what comes true between now and Christmas, which will be one or more of those.

And yeah, definitely one of the more self-centred leakers, but he's open about that too.
 
What if it's a trap and all those actions are wrong?

And what if someone gets it right... does HE change his avatar?


Capcom putting out DMC5 exclusively for PS4 would crush my soul.

Some characters would become too strong if their opponents only had one air dodge. On the flip side, I have never seen air dodges abused to the point where they bother me in this game. Not like rolls, which only bother me moderately.

not the first time we've heard of sf being exclusive to ps4, so I'd bet on that. Notice that he doesn't say sfv specifically, though.

I feel like that one is the decoy. Why would Capcom forsake so much money?
 
anyone here use fightcade? been trying to get third strike working, but no dice. it's the right files / region / version. but still comes up with errors.

If it gets published by Sony then Capcom is getting SF made without putting much resources into it themselves. Samething as Dead Rising 3, series was allowed to survive through MS.

Although it makes more sense for Capcom to get a lesser series money hatted like Dragon's Dogma or (as much as I hate saying it) DMC5. Games that are on the brink of being killed off and just barely make their 2 million quota.
