Tell your wife some random dude on Neogaf named 'Kimosaabae' said you're a lucky bastard.
With characters you don't really play, use instant kills.
yea i was in your lobby earlier. I kept trying to play with you but I did watch a few of your matches. one thing you should work on is your neutral game. i feel like you leave a lot of holes open in that department.
and lol...

question for the PS4 folks:
Has anyone been able to get GGXrd online without freezing
Has anyone been able to get GGXrd online without freezing
Let me know if you ever want to get some games in irl. Done with school and always having people over to game.
With the connectivity issues, games are hanging because of PSN. Go into settings and turn off the setting for connecting to the internet. Worked for me and others.

I haven't had issues yet, But most of the people on my friends list encounter freezing issues. Some get an error when they try to go to the lobbies.
yea omg! you were the Potemkin!?

Yes. Didn't realize that I-no can control the screen that much, Like I have to be really patient in neutral or I get bodied pretty bad.
it's easily his worst match up. I was messing up on a lot of stuff and I did not understand that flick move properties completely. But yea that was fun games. super exhausting tho.

I've been able to get online, every time.
But, I have encountered an issue a couple of times where I go into a room within a lobby, then my DS4 goes: "Are you ready to step up to the challenge?" and the game gets stuck on the loading window.
It's not in his favor, but I wouldn't say it's easily his worst.

Its bad, but I'm certain that Ram and Zato are worse. Faust is up there too.
You are probably right. I just hate this kind of design when it comes to fighting game characters. I have no proper way of learning how to deal with it on the fly without having the character my self.
I'd rather fight Leo than Azrael
Of course.
Yeah, I'd rather not fight those, haha. Against Zato, it sucks how much drilll and nobiru can put him in check.
Do you know if Potemkin can flick Ram's swords?
Edit: Regarding Leo, I thought he was just ok at first. I was impressed with Zidane's Leo though. Lots of tricky stuff I saw.

He can, which makes it easier in neutral. If she already has swords in place, you're kinda screwed. The sword attacks with longer start up can really fuck you up if you commit to flick too early.
all you have to do is follow his strings and don't fall into an attack pattern close up so you wont get frame trapped with his counter. also his counter is throwable.
what am i talking about... of course those are worst.
Oh, nice. I'll have to try that more the next time I fight her.
The easiest way to do it is to do j1K~S (or whatever button you like to FD with). The S should come quickly after the K.
The 1 input is so you're holding down back to make it easier.
It's uses are to help either rushdown or to help be more precise on positioning vertically for j.S and other stuff.

Got this for PS4 today. Played with my friends for a few hours, we all thought the graphics were just the coolest thing. We're all pretty terrible but it was still lots of fun.
i know about the holding down buttons one but I am trying to get it between strings and I keep getting a button instead of the FD. I'll see OSCA do j.S then the cancel then J.K or grab or whatever and w/o burst when I try to do it, I'll get a button.
EDIT: got it. you gotta jump cancel the normal.
Yeah for the average person that would be the draw for quite sometime, game is flipping gorgeous!
it's harder to do at first because you have to get into the habit of first holding down the buttons then plinking 4 with j.D but definitely more reliable for no accidental burst.

Finally got my PS4 hooked up again and had a chance to mess around in training and challenge mode. Man this game is gorgeous. My inputs on pad suck though, I'm used to playing fighters on a fight stick.
Ordered the HRAP v4 Midnight Blue or whatever from AmiAmi, so I'm pretty pumped for that to arrive.
Hopefully I can start playing with all you fine people sometime in the near future, though I'm confident I suck. =P I mained Tager in Blazblue the whole way through, so I'm pretty sure I'll be sticking with Potemkin, even if he doesn't have a Genesic Emerald Tager Buster analogue.

so, I finally got around to story mode, after finding out it was completely non-interactive so my pad frustrations wouldnt follow me there, and I ended up liking it a lot
It started off pretty weak, but steadily got better, made me really wondering about a lot of stuff in the series again

Aria/Justice, seems that man definitely is still thinking about Aria
Also Gabriel needs to be playable, dude is a certified BAMF

Gabriel definitely needs to be playable.
I'd wager the next characters will be (story spoilers I guess)
Johnny, Dizzy and maybe Gabriel.

I've always said Po-Tem-Kin, like you said, and was kinda thrown off by the announcer's version. It may be just the announcer trying to do a Russian-y accent or something? I'm dunno.

I'd love playable Gabriel. They seemed to have throughout his attacks enough in the story mode to make me assume they at least planned initial stages of designing him. Same with Johnny.
it's actually not Po-Tem-Kin
there is a kind of dipping "y" sound with the e so its technically pronounced
Po-Tyum-Kin
So it's not pronounced with a hard E, if we are referring to Russian.
Russianesse?

Conveyed, Kimo.
How many chapters are in Story Mode.
Your advice is pretty unhelpful, though.

My play is still garbage.

We should do that. I am teaching for my first time at the high school level, so a lot of my free time got devoured. I should have lots of time this summer, at least.

Since the game is cross-play and trophies & dlc are shared between ps3 and ps4, can you use that data upload feature to upload your data on the ps3 version and then download it on ps4?
(meaning can you transfer your save data between versions?)
edit: nevermind, I've read that you can.

Pochomukin according to the katakana. English wise I'd say it's just Potemkin (Po as in "poe", tem as in "ten" except with an m and kin as in "kinship").
wow... sorry...

Well, when you say "work on your neutral", do you really think that is helpful somehow? I am the one getting hit and losing Eddie, it is pretty obvious to me. I am finding it extremely hard to control two characters at once. I am struggling a lot with this game.
Good advice would give me new tools to worth with. No need to apologize. I am not angry, I am just direct.
Word. I'll be playing a lot leading up to EVO. I think we're friends on facebook, and can always communicate here. Just let me know.
