I have a TE2, the USF4 edition.

Amazing stick, highly recommend it.

Sounds great, got great reviews too on the web.
I can get it cheaper on the Internet, will buy, will send back the HORI Fighting Stick mini 4.
My hands are just hurting after some matches because the area for the palm is just to small.

Anyone have experience with this stick by Mad Catz?

If so how are your impressions?

Great stick. It's the one I currently use. As long as you're getting one from the more recent stock without the plexi issue, I'd say go for it.

 

[Vex_]

Why don't they allow rematches in ranked? In sf4 they did? Why not here?

It should be a new shipment, what was wrong with the plexi?
And thanks for the information

 

[JrBaconCheeseburger]

When it says failed to send result to server or something like that.

Do i eventually get credit? when it logs in

Because i beat the same guy twice and after the second match i got this message.

 

[ScOULaris]

Every match is failing to upload results for me today. Fuckin' Crapcom.

 

[FACE]

I am now realizing people will do whatever it takes to get a win. Mash jab, constantly sweep, whatever. But hey, a win is a win, right?

Paging scrubquotes.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

ranked never had rematches?

 

[Punished_Snake]

Still fucked. Games take awhile to show up. Lobbies are completely done. As in u can't stay in one without getting kicked.


Matchmaking if set to 4-5 usually does OK, but like I said it takes forever.

It is on and off.

Same BS

I spent most of my time in training mode since launch because I can't play ranked matches even when I set the connection status to 4-5 b bars

 

[Vex_]

Also, how come we don't have ranked lobbies? They were in sf4?

 

[synce]

How much are you meant to get for doing all of Story mode? I ended up at like 140k.

160k... I'm not sure if you can reclaim that missing 20k, I've heard different things

 

[mnz]

What drug were they on when they made Bison? His moves are ridiculous. Such easy offense.

edit: His st.hk is +3 on block wtf

 

[Admiral Snackbar]

just got beat by a ryu every time i tried to jump close he shoryukened me, talk about fucking quick inputs

The solution is not to jump in close. I know it sounds harsh, jumping feels right! But there's nothing you can do once you're in the air.

If he's throwing projectiles, neutral jump or a forward dash into a block to stop the next one. The block damage is far less than what you get from the Shoryuken. And watch out for them on wakeups, Online Ken and Ryus love those.

 

[Ginger Hail]

And thanks for the information

The earlier shipments had a plexi that didn't securely fit and was able to move around which led to scratches on the plexi and art. The newer shipments and all the future TE2s didn't suffer from this issue.

Question

When the result is not saved does that mean other person rage quit?

 

[Novum_Veritas]

I see, I will remind that when my fight stick is arriving here. Is there any quick method to test if it's the new shipment wave?

thing is I tried using dash instead he shoryuened that as well, this guy knew what I was gonna do, had a lot of that today, fuck today :/

 

[synce]

All of it.

EDIT: it's back

Did you lose it all in ranked? It happened to me once after a loss but I quit the game before the results disappeared and when I rebooted it was back. Although I heard it'll return either way

 

[mnz]

Question

When the result is not saved does that mean other person rage quit?

I think that's mostly the server. Getting a lot of that right now.

 

[Marvel]

Question

Nah, look out for connection to opponent lost and numbers beginning with 4 I think.

 

[Robot Pants]

I'm shocked to come in here after like 48 hours of not touching the game (just moved) and see it's still not working. This is pretty bad.

 

[JrBaconCheeseburger]

I think that's mostly the server. Getting a lot of that right now.

are we getting credit for those matches or they did not happen?

[Shin-chan]

I find a vega really difficult to fight against. Well, I find everyone difficult to fight against but him in particular. He's really fast and has good range and jumps about everywhere.

I've won a total of 6 out of maybe like 30 games now. I guess progress is progress, and I really love it when I'm against someone who seems on a similar skill level. I wish there was a rematch option to avoid the minute or so of sitting around between fights.

One thing I really was in the game is a combo tutorial because there's only really online resources and experimenting at the moment, but there really needs to be a better in game way to learn them.

 

[JumpCancel]

When on the menu my FM and Z each show "-", along with online matches no longer showing rank, league or exp.

Every piece of info is blank.

What is going on with...

 

[Csr]

While i got many "failed to sent results" messages today, the points where actually awarded to me. I was checking my points before and after, not sure about the fight money though, didn't check that.

100k for lobbies?

If the clear plexi on top of the artwork feels secure and doesn't move around, then you should be good.

 

[mnz]

They basically never happened

 

[WAR recon zero]

If you are close, don't dash, walk in, bait srk, block, punish

Okay, thanks, I will try this when the fighting stick gets here

What's not working? Working great here.

Was a round up, second round ended in a double ko with me winning lol. Tense

Rough stuff, sorry to hear that.

Not sure what character you're playing, but some have moves that over over or under projectiles? Other than that, it's all spacing. Landing in a crouch block instead of going offensive once you jump in. Or getting tricky, like Mika and Gief can stop their jumps and fall straight down, bait out a DP. But that depends on your character.

At this point, you feel like he's reading you. But you know that he's going to DP when you jump in, you're reading him, too. The goal now is to find what counters it that you feel comfortable pulling off in a match. Setting a Dummy to Shoryuken on loop and then seeing what your various abilities do to it is a good use of time.

I'm only giving advice that I've been given, I'm Rookie-Tier for life. But there is always room to improve yourself, nothing in the game is unbeatable!

 

[JrBaconCheeseburger]

Wow

I am really starting to hate always logging into servers now. Why do you always have to be connected?

It is like any moment you can be mid match and this shit can log off.

 

[mnz]

Oh wow, crazy thing just happened

- got a ranked match through match making sitting in training mode
- no black loading screen (or only for a few seconds), match started very quickly
- turns out the game couldn't load my or my opponents LP, it was left blank
- I won the match and still got my points.

So apparently it's that servers fault for taking its sweet ass time delivering the LP data.

 

[J-Skee]

A win is in fact a win, and if you can't deal with a player whose strategy is just "mash jab" or "constantly sweep" then that's kind of on you tbh

Yeah, I've noticed too, try breaking their pattern by observing and abusing their weakness.

What? It's completely on you if you fall for it.

Haha. What does this even mean? If something is working against you, it's up to you to get around it.

Paging scrubquotes.

This is the bullshit I just ran into.

Obviously this is an extreme case though. Also, holy shit at Laura's Time Up pose.

|OT2| Servers Rise Up, Servers Fall Down

 

[SSReborn]

Losing Normal Survival to Bison, especially after only getting a low HP power up before is the worst. He had almost no life left.

I have ranked matches coming in while I play so survival is a bit less shitty and I was literally about to win when one comes in and interrupts the match. Came back and lost to bison I was so cheesed.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

I've spent more time on loading screens than matches the past three days... I wish I was exaggerating. I can deal with the weird server issues but there is no reason for it to take more than a minute to load into anything.

 

[Matrix XII]

Do people leave during casual match too? I think that just happened to me. Does that person even know how rare wins are for me?? Haha
