Anyone else having trouble landing Vega's air V-Trigger consistently?

Can't for the life of me understand why it's happening sometimes and other times I just hold down the buttons and nothing.

EDIT: Or is it only forward jumps?

Random question but has anyone here used these and later got a new stick?

I got this one in 2009 or so and had to replace the buttons with Sanwas since the default ones were so shit and broke after a few weeks. I never replaced the actual joystick, though. Are these known to be less accurate or something? Sometimes I feel like things just don't register the way they should but I can't compare it to anything else so I don't know if it's me fucking up the input or if it's just the stick that's shitty.

It's still in. Used it during the only the match I had.

Oh yeah, that was you that I just faced awhile ago. I'm that Vega.

Edited: I just had a second match, and I was able to use power bomb in regular match but I couldn't able to use it in training room. Weird.

Hold back plus V-Trigger into a charge HK to EX Wingless Airplane is so dope. I love how creative you can be with this character.

Also note that you can hold the command for V-Trigger with her to control the delay of when Nadeshiko comes out. Gives you so much room for flavor and unpredictability in your combos.

Moveset for her seems kinda...limited. Unless I'm missing something.


Edit: She'd make a great beginner character though.
She has a lot of options that links to her air throw, I think her passion press is going to be the bane of many people's existence, the mixups and combos you can do through it seems like where she shines. You can do j.HP,f.HP into shooting peach, that's a nice damaging combo right there and her triggers seems pretty useful, they look like you can use them as enders or interrupts. There's a lot to test and learn yet, but i'm impreseed so far. Hopefully, I can try gief soon.

If anything, her moveset is ridiculous. Her off-the-ropes or whatever you wanna call F+MP has so much utility, you can get them to bounce off the other side by backdashing away from them. Nadesco also extends her combos like crazy.

What else did you want her to have? She can do neat little things, like charging her HK for crush counters and sometimes going through fireballs IIRC.

Fuuucccck. Could only play for a bit. Vega is surprisingly AWESOME. His new evasive style slashes remind me of KoF 13 Iori. Really liking his changes. Mika, who I was looking forward to more, actually seemed too simple in comparison. Damn. Gotta go to sleep. Sucks being a teacher sometimes. Well, most of the time.
 
Gonna break for the night. Had some fun messing with Mika, even if I only got one match. Hopefully things are all set up properly for tomorrow.

It's really cool that you can play against a friend (or computer with a difficulty from 1 - 10) in the ranked waiting room (aka training's room) until a new opponent is found.
I was not able to play against someone, it's probably to early for the servers or something.
You just have to disable automatic health gen to normal and you k.o. like it's a normal match.
If you want to you can change super, health and V trigger settings.
I'm pretty sad that I can't play against my friend the previous characters.
My Ryu just started to get decent... =(
And I wanted to play more Nash.

Also it sucks that pc players won't get the chance to play them in this beta.

It'd be nice to play against people. I'm just playing around with what the move list offers. The small little things I haven't really picked up on yet. But that f+MP shiz. Good lord. I think this will be a version of Vega I'll pass on. Too may habits of playing him like a charge character really. He seems really good though.

I've gotten two matches so far, both I won with R. Mika. They were really paced out though, I'm just kind of sitting here waiting for a match.

So I haven't played any matches yet, but I'm blown away by how much I'm enjoying Vega in training mode. Like, I have historically loathed this character but suddenly I'm loving how he plays now.

Is this real life?
 
Man I hope I can find some people around me to play on the regular. All of my close friends hate fighters.

Honestly, people should just wait until the game comes out to get the most out of the characters. People are calling things way too early, and SFV feels like you need some straight up human vs time to really get what works and what won't.

It's why I cringe when people say this game is simple.
 
The instant I got in, I got a match with Mika but I didn't even get a chance to look at her move list lol.

After that I'm having basically about 30 minutes of uninterrupted training mode after learning some combos. Just tapping her v-skill instantly adds like 80-90 damage on her command grabs depending on which strength you use (giant swing is does slightly more than the kick one), so just tapping it once is a huge benefit, and doesn't seem like it's too crazy of a commitment.

Did anyone figure out how the guard recovery actions work? I tried making her dummy do EX peach after blocking, but it doesn't come out and I tried it at the lowest interval and even executed the command .1 after block stun. I did manage to get her to jump after block at least...

Her V-trigger I really like. You can combo off it easy. An easy one is lk mp f+HP+HK lk then let Nadeshiko hit, then do mk wingless airplane. You can also use HP for a beefier combo starter and connect itself after activating v-trigger too.

Also if you sweep then do neutral V-trigger, if they did not tech roll, Nadeshiko will body slam them, but if they roll, she whiffs, so it's not too useful, but I think it might make her slide safe. You can also do something extremely stupid and risky by charging up you V-Skill, then if you connect HP later in the match, do V-trigger, you can command grab right after. I dunno if this works on block because I can't seem to get that dummy guard recovery action to work right. I wonder if someone like Ryu can shoryu out or will he be hit by Nadeshiko. This would only be worth it if you really charge up your v-skill though.

I'm assuming my lack of matches earlier was due to location-based matchmaking avoiding bad connections.

If so, good.

Oh no I get what you mean. Just that after so many years of playing Vega, to have him changed is really a change of mindset with the character for me. I'm really interested in the new characters and if I'm going to stick with a charge character, it's Bison. That guy is just damn good.
