There may be a problem with the SE sticks. A lot of people are experiencing problems with the stick "sticking" to a position on occasion (mine got stuck a few times in the left, down, and up-left positions causing my character to continuously move backwards, duck, or jump backwards when my hand wasn't on the stick). Someone on Shoryuken opened the stick and discovered a loose washer that seems to not only cause this problem but it can also damage the stick over time. Here's the thread (his post is #9)

Can't stop watching the stream. This game's music is hawt!

Also, noob question, but whats the difference between Ryu and Ken?

Tonnes of stuff... off the top of my head:

-Ken's HP dragon punch is 3 hits, ryu's is one
-Ken's HK tatsu connects on every hit, Ryu's knocks down
-Different arc on the air tatsus
-Different arc on the DPs
-Different overheads, Ryu's is f+MP, Ken's is (I think) b+MK
-Different EX moves, Ryu's tatsu is stationary, Ken's moves forward
-Different supers, Ryu's is a fireball, Ken's is a shoryureppa
-Different ultras, Ryu's is shinku hadouken, Ken's is shippu+shinryuken

I saw this and was thinking of sending the extra money to get the hrap ex instead.

Dhrone, sounds like you are just doing it too fast.. If you are getting SRK into FADC, just be sure to fully input the Ultra motion. You have plenty of time to do it. Be sure to go back to neutral on the joystick after the FADC

 

[panda21]

apparently PS3 has lag because everyone uses wireless whereas on the 360 a lot of people use ethernet. the proof - lbp lags.

:lol

dumb asses

Quick question, if I were to change the artwork on the SE stick would I place it over the SFIV art or take that off somehow? Also what would be the best type of paper to print it on.

 

[Darkman M]

Anyone have a list of all the titles in this game and how to get them?

is anybody up for some SFIV?(for those who have it.)

 

[Volcynika]

I feel like this game is going to consume my life...sigh.

Just lie back and let it do its work.

Anyone here have a 100% working out of the box SE FightStick? :lol

I'm sure almost all stores will have it on the 17th, its not street dated

yeah what most likely what is happening is you are holding fwd from the dash and trying to do the ulta too fast so the game is registering it as a dragon punch. Kind of like when you try to do a walk forward fireball you will get a DP.

Sucks because I'm scared to use it now haha. I was only using it on the HD Remix demo for now until I get SFIV. MarkMan said in the thread that I previously linked that the warranty would be ok even if you open your stick to fix this issue, so I may have to get some glue and fix the washer myself before I use it again.

 

[DihcarEM]

Seeing Sakura in some matches, she's too cute not to use every once in awhile.

She really is, i was suprised how much i liked playing with her. Does anyone know what she say after completing a succesfull ultra? It sound like she says either "Sakura." or "Ultra" in this really cute voice.

Is mic use common in online fighters? Just wondering if I should spend the money.

I think it could be fun if you use a mic when playing with a friend. You can communicate and practice together, that's atleast what i'm planning to do.

Well that was a terrible C. Viper. :/

From what little i've played of Viper, she seems like a really solid character. I sucked with her, but you can just feel that this character has some great potential if you try and master her.

^^^ Heh, those are the two exact threads I had open

After seeing all the defects, I'll probably mod my stick, I have the buttons I want but I can't find the JLF-TP-8YT or JLF-TP-8Y sticks on Lizardlick, just the JLF-TP-8T, are they not up there?

Edit: Well they are on the Akihabara shop.

 

[Jamesfrom818]

I had the FightPad preordered but I decided to cancel it and I ordered a HRAP EX. It comes on the 19th. I can't wait.

I'm in Europe though so warranty doesn't help much, I guess I'll just make a backup plan of modding the stick once the stock parts fail. I read that great guide on SRK how to do it step-by-step.

How to I do the 300 challenges in Training mode?

[SapientWolf]

i played for like 8 hours last night, i now feel kind of sick, and i'm nonetheless itching to get back on :lol

i've been splitting my time pretty evenly between ryu and guile, and doing about equally well with both -- at least for my current level of play, guile doesn't actually seem that bad, though he's certainly not hd remix guile. wish his ultra did more damage -- it's so rare that you get a good opportunity to use it, and then it's obviously weaker than ryu's or ken's :/

TODAY I SHALL START HITTING RYU'S SRK -> FADC -> ULTRA IN REAL FIGHTS

weird glitch perhaps: it seems like i have the smoothest online matches with people whose network icon is flashing with no bars? i would think that's supposed to mean that the connection is awful? i should probably clear the cache

That means you have an ultra connection.

Aargh! Still haven't decided what controller to use. I typically have an easier time with the D-pad on the PS3 controller (though it's a bit small for me personally) than I do with a ball-type stick, but I like the buttons on sticks better. Also, while the 360 controller would obviously make the Fightpad a worthy upgrade, I can't tell if it's really better for PS3 users. So, given my preferences and situation, which of these would you guys recommend?

The SE Fightstick
HRAP3
Fightpad

Money isn't too much of an object, but I'd like to only have to buy 1.

i hate all of you that have the game........................j/k

can't wait for the game next week and my stick the following week

Hmm, I figured the anime endings would be more substantial. They really could have done all of that in the game engine.

Oh crap. Hope mine doesnt suffer from this. I did notice a little hitch in it now and then, but thought it was just me. Nothing that ever made my character keep moving in the same direction though.

So does anybody know how many tracks are on the Collectors Edition OST?

 

[SiegfriedFM]

I'm loving my HRAP3 for this so far. It was neat to use on VF5, of course, but it feels like I never would get anywhere in SF4 with all the double and triple buttons you need to use, which can never be configured properly on only 8 buttons.

I'm not certain if you mean that you prefer D-Pads to Sticks - but for what it's worth, if I was going to play a six button fighter on the PS3 for any length of time I would much rather use the fightpad than the DS3. The DS3 isn't a bad controller by any means, but getting six face buttons is a great benefit.

 

[Ronabo]

So I asked the Gamestop manager that's a rock's throw away from me if they are gonna be getting in the game early and selling it. He said no, I was like, you mean they haven't asked you to drive down to the distro center and pick up your shipment. He said yeah, but they won't reimburse him for gas, so he won't be going.

WTF?!

 

[gutter_trash]

So does anybody know how many tracks are on the Collectors Edition OST?

the OST CD that comes with the CE is one disk,
the complete import OST comes with 2 CDs

chance's are it may be a lesser OST in the CE just like GTA4's sorry OST in its CE and MGS4 LE's OST disk that was really bare

I got my SE stick yesterday from Gamestop and it had the sticking problem. I returned it this morning and bought another one from Fry's (Gamestop didn't have any more in stock). Luckily, the new stick I got doesn't have the sticking problem and all is well.
