I really am happy I decided to stick with making Cammy my primary main. Having the Battle Costume just makes things even more sweet. I'm gonna try to learn Laura and R. Mika next!
 
Finally hit Super Bronze last night. Think I've made some really good progress with Cammy.

How tricky is Karin to learn? I see all of her varying V-Skills and attacks and she seems pretty intimidating, but I'm really intrigued by her style.
 
He's in the background in one of the stages. I assume he's going to look like that but with the flannel shirt around his waist or something. So basically how that one bit of art looked.
 
Are you playing with friends or just random people? Try seeing if you can join anyone that invites you to their BL. I haven't had any issues except with 1 person, most of my time is spent playing BL.

If I create a lounge, it will disconnect as soon as I invite somebody and they accept (friends), or as soon as somebody attempts to join (random people).

It usually lets me join random lounges, but that's such a pain in the ass to deal with since 90% of the results are out of country and if I wait for the signal strength icon to show up it takes literal minutes, by which time all of the lounges have been filled already. So my only chance is to click the first one and then back out once I see it's 1-bar.

I've had no problems hosting or joining in any other online game w/ my PS4, including USF4.

She's not so hard. The hardest thing is getting used to doing her JF Tenko and Orochi during combos. She has good buttons and plays footsies pretty well.
 
Long haired I hope, as he's younger in V. Also if that concept art is anything to go by he's gonna rock weird shorter hair.

If they don't. I will rage.

Yeah, I'm not very fond of the way the hair looked for him in the concept art, I mean even that background model of his hair just looks gross.

Yeah, but long hair Alex is SF3 Alex, which takes place after SFV. So The future!

SF3 Alex -> Alex; Not future Alex

SFV Alex -> Past Alex

So, he shall not be called future Alex because he was the first.

__lol__
 
Anyone start trying to learn an alt yet? Who?

I main Bison and am thinking about who to start learning as a secondary for when I need some variety, and not sure who to go for. My only thought is someone that has better defensive tools than Bison does, so I have more options than just v.Reversal. Maybe Necalli, Ken?

Also I just realized I've never fought a Dhalsim player online. I'm at nearly 2000 points and have never run into him. I'm going to be so free when I finally do since I have no idea what to do.

As a Bison player I've started trying out Chun, despite never playing her in other SF games. She's like a porcupine with pokes for every situation. Great reversal move in EX spinning bird kick too, and much easier to combo into her super than Bison. Yet she's still got some charge moves so it's not that hard picking her up.

Necalli is really weird to me. He's got a lot of tools I thought I'd like but in practice it doesn't feel right. His command grab is stupid slow and his normals are super short range. He feels like his natural habitat is the corner and he dies if you take him out of it.

Birdie has been my actual 'secondary' character since the beta. He's mechanically incredibly easy to play but to actually do well with him takes a lot more thought and practice. I panic even more with him in close range than when I get rushed down as Bison.
 
The struggle to get from ultra bronze to silver is real. I keep getting bronzes that only net me 30 if I beat them but take 100 if I lose.
 
S.Hp x l.ase is godlike. Abuse it.

Claw on - c.mk, c.lp x roll

Claw off - c.mk, c.mp x ex.roll (fantastic for pressure.. Safe on block)

Vtrigger on a jumping opponent straight to super is still working at 2500lp.. Abuse it.

C.mp, s.mp, and f.hp are all buttons you should be pressing frequently with the claw on. Keep those bastards out as his AA options are pathetic.

Baited dragon punch? HK CC, s.hp x ex.fba
Thanks! I'm assuming "x" stands for cancel? Still learning terminology.

Good to know I've been using the right pokes.
 
Yeah I wish it would let you pick full or high health... or even medium for pete sakes just not random pick. I get low EVERYTIME I actually am low, and I get full when I'm barely scathed.

I agree on the let me give up my entire score for a continue idea.

This happens to me so often I'm not convinced the game doesn't do it on purpose haha. And yeah, also agreed on the continue idea.
 
I would pay Capcom $5 to remove the Survival option permanently from my main menu. I went back to it after a few days of not touching it and I hate everything again. Crappy ass mode.
 
I don't think I'm even gonna have a secondary or a third. My main will be Charlie Nash, but after that, I really just want to learn the ins and outs of the game for the next years. Trying to play and watch characters up against each other, so I also learn about my opponents toolsets.

I respect that.
 
Though I doubt Urien will play exactly like his 3S version, at this point he's the only alt I can fathom playing.

Unless Abel returns in season 2.
 
Finally got the game.

Man this story mode is so silly. Some of these voice actors are pretty annoying at that, mostly for the female characters.

Nothing wrong with that. I mained Ryu for years in SF4. Until Ultra came out and I dumped him for Hugo and Decapre.
 
I don't think I have ever seen Urien in any gameplay, which is probably why I'm saving up for Juri and Ibuki as they were in SFIV, and that's probably the one game in the series I have been exposed to the most by the media. Never really played it.
 
lol, sounds like most players have caught on to this

hopefully maintenance today fixes that

Well the struggle is real over here, ive only gotten as high as like 350lp so never even had met anyone who got any reason to cheat:)

But its embarrasing that they havent fixed it yet.. Every victory I earn is a struggle and I hate when honest playing isnt supported.

Laura's English voice is pretty cringeworthy and R. Mika literally sounds like Naruto from the anime. R. Mika's voice isn't bad, though.

I mean, it's a good idea to experiment around with the different characters to learn what ones opponents have available as their toolset. We all probably do that. Our brains just have to be trained to be smarter than our opponents lol.

I already know I'm gonna play around a lot with Ryu as well, only because he's the most accesible for a newcomer, and he basically have the basics, and I can get to train srk's and hadoukens.
 
I honestly enjoy both the Bendus art (yeah, shame on me) and the small stories it tells.

Same here. Far from his best work, but still kinda neat. As short as the stories are, I'm interested to see what's going to happen next, which is the first time I've felt that way towards the series' story since the Alpha games.

Re: Alex, no way he doesn't get his SFIII design as a shop unlockable, especially seeing as how they gave Ryu, Ken and Nash their Alpha outfits.
 
I really want to see how Urien is like in this game. I'm also pretty excited in the fact that he'll be included even more into the story.

Which means we could possibly see Necro appearing one day. I just really want to have Necro vs Dhalsim already.

Also, Bison vs Urien. Mmph!

Quick question, if Mika does a command grab at the same time as her opponent does a regular throw, which will win?


Based on things that happened with me. A regular throw. I've had Ex grabs get beat. :T
 
That feeling when training with Cammy when you discover

Forward Jump > HP > sMP > sHP > V Trigger > H Arrow > H Spike or CA

and then hit it.

It's not as bad as it seems. Her pokes are great. And you'll learn which rekka to use depending on the situation.
 
I changed my favoured character back to Rashid after losing with FANG in ranked matches, but somehow it doesn't feel as good playing Rashid.

I think FANG just clicked. Winning with him feels much more satisfying.
