So it's the cheatingest combination of timestop and spider-sense ever.

Jojo Part 5 Spoilers:
He also has a secondary power that is just seeing the future for 10 seconds. His stand is also one of the strongest physically and can move at faster-than-light speeds. The only reason he loses is because the protagonist's stand is even more OP.
 
Okay, I finally found time to write this thing about the antagonist's stand from Part 5 of Jojo.

He has the ability to make it like erase 10 seconds of time for people in a short area. The people and things this affects continue doing what they would've done, but at the end of the 10 seconds, that stuff is erased and the only thing that changes from their perspective is that they are now wherever they would have been in 10 seconds. An example of this is if someone was reading a book when this happened, they might suddenly be on the next page without having actually read the previous page. Anything that would have happened to them in that time period doesn't happen. Also, the antagonist can move through this "time" and see what people are going to do, and prepare for it. A good example is if someone fired a gun at both the antagonist and someone else just before the power is activated. The antagonist would be able to see the sequence of events about to happen and move into a favorable position. The other guy would have been shot in the 10 seconds and would have fallen to the ground. When the 10 seconds are up, the guy who fired the gun will everything "jump" to where they would be in 10 seconds and the guy who was shot would suddenly be on the ground but without the bullet wound.


I'm still at the beginning of part 6, do stands get more complex than this? I don't think i'll be able to handle it and just enjoy the art

So what your saying is...

Honestly I feel like Araki didn't even know what this Stand does near the end. Hence why the bleh ending.

I guess there's one stand that is somewhat complex. Doesn't reach bullshit levels of this one though.

It's so OP it's actually self aware. I think it's the strongest Stand in the series.

But actions that happened during the 10 seconds shouldn't have happened either meaning everything should be set to the moment before time was erased. Why would the bullet wound disappear but not the movement of bullet.

It's because that time where the bullet would've hit you no longer exists. It was literally erased from existence. The reason bullet wound disappears but the person is still on the ground is because one part of the power is that people will be in the place they would've been if time happened, but any damage done to them during that time is erased.
 
To the people saying it fucks your controller, it was actually people saying it messes up your console port. That was most likely due to awkward positioning because of the CM casing. If you use a small extension cable it fits well. Again people haven't done much testing on it though so if you're afraid that's fine. I have one and it's worked just fine, though it does get a bit hot.
I would like to get one because I can't go back to my 360 pad after using the ds4.

Edit:

Maybe not...
You don't need a CM for that. If your computer can do bluetooth or you've got a bluetooth dongle you can just use DS4Tool
 
Oh, are we talking about the Maroon Monarch? Yeah, that stand is OP as fuck. Friendly reminder that it just works.

How's the input delay? I want to know if I could use for fighting games.

You don't notice it. It feels very instant. There hasn't been that PCB test they do to test it accurately, but it can't be above 30ms. Like unless your life depends on winning high level matches at evo constantly, it shouldn't matter.

I should also mention that it sadly doesn't work with all sticks. It'll work with the mainstream sticks like TEs, but it won't recognize my PS3 SCV Hori

Wow I can't believe people fell for that article. Then again, there are still people that believe in p4r's articles
Yeah I feel like a fool. Thing is in NJ they always postpone/make curfews for Halloween for some dumb reason every year, that's why I bought it.

Still ain't buyin no fuckin candy :mad:

That's good to hear. My stick is the Madcatz Fightstick Pro so it should work.

How about the software? It's not hard to work with, right?

I need to read part 5.

You know wat the best feeling is? Introducing W101 to your 10 year old brothers, and seeing them loving it!
 
It's so OP it's actually self aware. I think it's the strongest Stand in the series.
nope the strongest stand is Gionos Gold Experience requiem which just says "no" to every and anything that wants to harm giorno.
though k believe the way King Crimsons stand work is that king crimson and diovolo go back 10 seconds and[ delete the original 10 seconds that happned the only people who are aware of this happening are diovolo and king crimson. So he can properly react to anything that happens cause he knows what happened and can change the outcome.

Guys, this would all be moot if Jotaro were hit with the arrow. Star Platinum is already OP. Also, I'm pretty sure that
his ability to move within the stopped time means he could beat anybody, including other time manipulators.

I actually like part 5 but there is no doubt that the protagonist and antagonist are just downright terrible.

Bruno is pretty cool tho.

Yooo YouTube now lets people upload in 60FPS
but only Pat can record at 60FPS anyway but it's neat. Oh and they have a site.

Yeah well now they have no excuse when they play PC games. Pat's gotta do that extra hard work with DS2, or Woolie I guess.
 
Crimson King lets Diavolo experience the length of time affected by his power all at once so he can see it like a slideshow while moving about it and then afterwards discard the time without negating the effects of the time that comes after it.

Yeah that one's good I'm sure. They have a list of supported peripherals on their forums. Software is pretty simple. You plug in the CM through the side port and update the program and firmware when you have to, then you just go to the profiling tab and tell it "I want this controller to act like this one", change some buttons if you have to and that's it.

Yo gj getting your brothers on board. Maybe they'll get on the Platinum Hype Train
No peeling problem as of yet. Hope that continues so I don't need a fix.
Ah nice. "Fixing" is actually pretty cheap, I just got some covers for like 5 bucks and they feel really nice

That is the best explanation I've seen

Ah, I see. Sounds good. I don't really need one right now, but it could be handy for the future.
 
The Registration Act was a stepping stone towards concentration camps in the negative zone

I am most defiantly Anti Registration

The concentration camps were a stepping stone for the producers to make Iron Man as terrible as possible to make Captain losing to the civilians something noteworthy. Marvel always manages to have the smartest people in the room do terrible things in the name of progress, the Illuminati starts World War Hulk for similar reasons.

The implementation was shit, but Pro Registration has solid platform. I'm all for superheroes having a secret identity, but personal responsibility can only go so far. Especially when heroes can have a different sense of morality from the public they serve, like gods or aliens.

They have both more than 300 hours on Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate!
They have a great taste in games, and they like LoK so I will buy them the game some time.

Oh yeah, I have a question to all mecha fans here.
Can you recommend me some good mecha anime? After that FNF, I realisted that I only know about Eva and TTGL. So I want to enlarge my horizone on the waste world of Mecha anime1

Aldnoah Zero is a good current one and Captain Earth is said to be a decent one that aired over the summer. Gundam is the poster child of the genre. ArclightBorealis is the Friender to go to for a more comprehensive explanation/recommendation.

Code Geass is really good. I also heard Escaflowne is good even though I haven't seen it.
