Weird considering we're both in Cali (right?), and we've had great connections

Yeah, it seems to have gone back to normal now. The first couple were rough.
EDIT: Lame, seems like you DCed. I think I'll take a break now anyway, gotta get ready for dinner.

Yup not sure what the fuck happened. My game just kinda froze at the versus screen so I had to close the app.
EVERYTHING WAS FINE UNTIL YOU CAME ALONG EDZI! Jk. I'm probably gonna eat soon as well.
I'll just blame Thanksgiving in general.

Haha. I always mash hard as hell out of dizzies. You never know. I don't know if it applies to this game, but for pretty much every other SF if you mash the stick/pad diagonally you recover much faster.

That face model is much better, too. Looks smarmy as, but that's expected of Ken. Looks confident but not in a crazy, yellow-toothed moonface way.
Isn't that his normal face just with lighter skin?

I think it's different. But he looks different from every angle and in every lighting condition so who knows.
Anyone else having terrible connections tonight?

His jeans still make him a grandpa.
Other than that, now he just looks like blond Kyo.
I'm pretty sure it's the same. I remember the top left frame from the story mode and his face looks identical. People have pointed out before that Ken's actual face model looks fine, it's the angles/lighting and hair that really make it weird.
EDIT: Just saw that thread about SFV support until 2020, and wow. People irrationally hating this game has gone from infuriating to straight up pathetic.

Sometimes the Gaming side is no better than r/kappa tbh.
I am pretty sure they are the same people.

Wouldn't be surprised!
I'll browse kappa for the fgc drama, but anytime SFV comes up it's a bunch of dudes screaming about how bad it is.
Just...
Like....
Here....
Hmmm
At least here we use sales to cal SFV dead and not hyperbole.

Yo CSR / Casshern, I'll play you next time. Little out of it today and I'm watching replays whilst waiting for someone else, so I'll send an invite to continue the sparring sessions another day.
There's a couple of minor edits to his face too, as per the creator:

Necalli's CPT costume is even better in person. Color 6 is sexy as hell.
His best costume is still the battle outfit with the torn shirt.

I plan to buy that eventually too. Hopefully the costumes will go on sale in the future.
That's what I love playing as him, and I feel like I'll get to a point where I'm far more comfortable with Guile than with Balrog (I kinda already am).
If the Guile is on point, the opponent gets more and more visibly flustered. And then it gets even easier to predict their patterns and defend against them. It feels nice to just be a wall.
Basically, you have to predict his boom patterns and jump preemptively right as he's throwing one out. The easiest way to close the gap.
I'm in the same boat with the CPT costumes, they cost a bit more so I'm relectant to buy them right now.
Oh wow, didn't realise there were so few tweaks to his face. The whitening helps, but I can see how lighting/angle is affecting it.
Starting to think it's the select screen expression that's causing the most harm. Maybe he should just keep his mouth shut...
Played a couple of decent Guiles this morning and share your pain.
As Flux says, you just gotta try to be less predictable and not lose your cool.
Neutral jump some booms to throw off their timing, and keep an eye out for tells/patterns.
For example, a lot of people tend to throw out a minimum of 2 with every exchange, so learn to look for that and get the jump in.
Who do you use specifically? Obviously a lot of it depends on the tools your character has.
Sure no problem.
I just played a vs cpu match on kanzuki estate at night and i completed the challenge, not sure exactly what you are supposed to do though.
bulldog it and wait for the right time to jump in/push him to the corner.

I'm back baby. I somehow got my original account back so I don't have to grind back to platinum again. I'm also gonna start playing again to build up to my main character Akuma, and I'm also determined to get to Diamond finally (I know, chump who never got to Diamond). Get at me @PSN/CFN: Bar_bar12 for some good games with me. I use Nash and am pretty good at this game 
Tell me about it. It's just sad and desperate at this point.

I believe you are suppose to keep knocking the opponent down on the right side of the screen until the lady smacks the guy standing next to her or something.
In match for another 5...
That mod suffers from the same problem that a lot of mods do: it doesn't look like Street Fighter V. The hair is technically well-made, but it's way too detailed and realistic for SFV. It sticks out like a sore thumb.

Figured out some EX Fireball tech with Urien, ~360 damage for one bar:
You can actually loop 6MP xx EX Fireball three times and end it with sMK xx V-Trigger, but the last 6MP is HARD AS FUCK to link. Like I only got it twice out of ~50 tries hard. I think you have to walk forward for like 1 frame or some shit.
Anyway EX Fireball at max 6MP range seems to be +8.

What's left for me is the trophy for looking at replays, favoriting players (or something) and Extreme survival. Don't really feel like torturing myself with the last one.

Hey guys I have a quick question I need help with. Im planning to buy Street Fighter Digital Deluxe Edition, but I already own the physical version. In that time I owned the physical version I purchased Guile, Ibuki, and Balrog using FM.
If I were to get the Deluxe Edition would that refund me the FM I used to purchase those characters or would it be lost?

it's gone. you just need to choose if 3 characters is worth the price of the upgrade. Oh and the costumes, if those interest you.
