How the FUCK are you supposed to beat Seth with El Fuerte?
This shit makes me want to return the game. For all the improvements, the A.I. still records what buttons you press and then reacts before your move goes through. Unreal.
And BTW, throws/grabs in this game can suck my balls. I don't know how many times I've been in the middle of a move, and then all of a sudden the game kicks into a canned animation where the other character has grabbed me. What the fuck? It doesn't even show how they got me, just jumps straight into it. Number 1 problem with the game right now and its killing a ton of the fun against the AI.

I didn't notice if anyone asked about this earlier, but does anyone have some insight into the timing needed on Sakura's final combo in her 4th normal Trial? You're supposed to go Jump Heavy Kick -> Heavy Punch -> Shouoken -> Haru Ichiban, and I cannot get the Haru Ichiban to connect to save my life. I've tried it in various points of Dan's fall, but it always whiffs right through him. Should I be trying to cancel out of the Shouoken and not letting her leave the ground?
Edit: Yes, I should, as I just did it. Wow, do I want a "Demo Combo" option in this mode. :/

It's a little tough, but if you do his run into throw as Seth gets up, I found you can just cycle his ass to death.
And btw, even if the AI is recording your button inputs, there are ways around it. For instance if you knock the AI down and you go for low forward, hadouken, just fake out the AI by doing it early or not hitting the forward. Then the AI will EX SRK or something and you can punish when they come down.

I got gouken finally.
1 perfect, 3 ultras but only after you've seen akumas ending.
Also, my DPs are trading alot or *gasp* even losing out, any advice?

Okay I hate to ask this question, but is there anything holding the ps3 version back from the 360 version? I dont have xbl gold and I'm not going to buy the game if the ps3 version has any major problems.

FUCK THESE GRABS OFF THE FLOOR!!!
It's impossible to guard against them when the game has already picked me up before I can even recover. Can't stand this shit.

i'm starting to like the way guile plays in this game -- mixing up flashkicks and normals for your antiair needs is good fun, and the fact that his flashkick isn't the wall it was in sf2 encourages a lot of opponents to jump in more than they should. and if i can figure out the timing to land his crossump jumping lk and combo off it i think i'll have some good mixups off knockdown or jab boom. if -- it doesn't seem like a very useful move
no aa, resolution drops during ultras and other closeups -- haven't opened my ps3 copy yet, so i don't know how perceptible any of this is. but really it's street fighter, and you stop seeing the graphics when you're in a good fight

Fuerte's a really different character compared to rest of the cast though - so even playing the rest of the cast doesn't exactly help you start Fuerte.Raxus said:
Really, one of the best ways to start some Fuerte strat is watching some of the high-level play vids so that you can start putting some of their advanced bait n switch game into your tactics.

just walk in range, FK rinse and repeat.

If they patch the game...it would be nice if they give Ken back his kick super and save the shinryuken for his ultra (or swap it for the shoryureppa).
Guile could be given the rush super as his normal super or the wicked sonic boom.
Also, I just paged through the strategy guide. It's a decent guide...not as comprehensive as the Gamepro Hyperfighting or Versus A2 guides (both by the same author, Slasherquan)...
Didn't like the artwork section. Also it didn't include all of the requirements to unlock all of the colors and personal actions.
I think he should've gotten input from SRK or gone to a Cali arcade after he did his character write ups.
He also has Fei Long, Seth, Rose ranked pretty high...especially considering they were unplayable in the arcade.

I think I'll take care of the challenges before I play with a character in arcade mode.
Okay, HOW THE FUCK do I perform Ryu's CROUCH HEAVY PUNCH -> SHORYUKEN? This is fucking impossible.

Don't use too many forward Habanero dashes other than for baiting/intimidation or to keep distance (not too far where you can't punish random fireballs). Have fun with forwards on wake-up mix-ups though, just don't be too obvious with splashes.Kintaro said:
If you can predict or have pretty good reaction to random fireballs, back habanero run throw can punish really well.
Of course, the distance matters since you mustn't be too far where you can't reach and not too close where you can't react fast enough.
If they jump in towards you, EX Guacamole (DP+KKK) can punish really well, or back habanero run and throw also works pretty well since they usually can't recover in time after landing (don't do this on cross-ups though).
Other than that, his habanero back run wall-jump can be controlled where you can land either on the middle or 3/4 of the screen. You can use the middle landing to bait and the 3/4 landing to punish.
FA back dash cancel is also good to use for scrotos on wake-up since they'll try to mash reversal DPs.

When you do the Shoryuken move, try pressing forward, down+HP, down/forward+HP to complete the Shoryuken.
Instead of trying to do a crouching+HP and then the shoryuken presses, you do it all in one set of motion presses.
Heh, that combo is one of my heavily abused set against the computer, I like just walking up to many of them using that combo as they are getting up, looks kind of like a neat double hitting Shoryuken from Ryu.

Can someone tell me EXACTLY how the fuck you unlock gouken? Explain it to me like I'm retarded...
I've played through the game like 10 fucking times now trying to do it, and I've fought him and whooped his sorry old ass, but he's never unlocked.

It all depends on him doing wtfever he wants to do. At work were trying to get all the characters ASAP so we set it on easiest and one round matches, so were breezing trough most seth fights, except when he gets a bug up his ass and decides to completely whoop the living shit out of us for one round, like, not even fucking around.
For some of the quick moves on challenge mode, the KEY to do them is to input the command quickly, DO NOT worry about how the character looks on screen as far as the timing, as soon as you enter one command input the next and you should be fine.

I beat the game like 50 times getting tons of perfects and ultimates and I could never fight him again for some reason.
Did it again with Ryu and got 3 perfects, 3 ultimates and fought Gouken again.
Make sure you minimally have unlocked everyone and beat the game with Akuma if you haven't already.
