Im in the same spot and Im getting to the point that I'll sell/trade-in the game. It just isn't for me I guess. I had a break from it and just a moment ago tried again. After an hour on Bison's Arcade mode against Seth I just turned the game off and took it back to shelf.

I played a few games last night on Live G3. I won a few championships but I don't have the time to grind to G2.
More and more, I'm getting frustrated with the lag during online play. The game really feels like you're playing a tank.
I ran into a good Rose. I faced him twice. Both of them were close calls but I managed to win. Everytime I jumped at him, he'd slide and throw me. His footsies were pretty good. He'd throw out standing forward, roundhouse, low forward and the slide. It was pretty frustrating. I can only imagine what it would be like to play Saqs.

Question
I'm playing SFIV on PC and it ran perfectly for a few days. Now when I start it up, it literally runs in slow motion. My rig ran it fine at maxed settings before, but now it seems to be an issue.
When I change framerate from variable to fixed, it mostly stays at 60, but seems really...I guess jerky? Like some animations are just being skipped.
Anyone know of a solution to this?

Dude, punish that! If someone does the same thing every time during a certain sequence of events, think about what will beat it, and then set it up for the situation to happen again. Dash back and punish the throw whiff, or anything that your character has that would beat a throw.Spiderjericho said:
Saqs will sometimes throw under the situation, sometimes dash back, sometimes some other crap. I lose lots of life because I tend to jump forward after certain sequences, and it's a habit I'm trying to break.

Yeah GG's man! Did you know what was going on? It's good to take a step back after a session and figure everything out.

yo, I took what I learned from our matches....and I played a lot better and more confident later that night. Holding my ground, I managed to rattle and dismantle my opponents pretty quickly. Granted, they are scrubby random online players, but they used tactics that usually frustrates me (ie, turtle, runaways, ie) and I managed to seize control and the momentum of the match from the outset. I still need a lot of work but it's a good start.
anyway, just got Batman guys. I guess I will put down SFIV for a day or two. Hopefully, I won't be too rusty when I start playing it again this weekend.
The thread in the online meetup section isn't very crowded, so I'm posting here to ask if anyone else is playing on PC. My gamer tag's Dascu, feel free to add me.

Cool to see a chun player, you just made online feel fresh for a moment.GriffD17 said:

I was going to say "110% sure" since I've seen it myself on countless occasions, but I decided to look it up to be sure. You may be right. Apparently even though it hits as a cross-up, sometimes Chun-Li will land in front of the opponent anyway. So it looks as though it hit from the front (because that's where she lands) but in actuality it didn't. Maybe someone else can say for sure if it can hit from the front or not?
edit: Oh shit apparently this had already been posted :/

also, Alex should be in SFIVhaunts said:
Ever notice Alex is quite similar to Honda? Charge character with a command grab with great range, stomping move, hits hard, takes lots of damage. Alex just has a better dash and Honda has hands (and of course, different normals)._dementia said:also, Alex should be in SFIV

x d a t x: they need to make his crossup an ultra instead of a normal move
WWGenius: if you pause it at the right time...right before he crosses up, he teleports to their back and pokes them so they will turn around
x d a t x: pausing doesnt work on gen's crossup
x d a t x: it still happens
x d a t x: that shit does not stop lol
x d a t x: gen's crossup has more priority than the president of the united states
WWGenius: you actually have to get level 5 pentagon clearance to attempt to block it
WWGenius: one time, Gen tried to cross himself up...the period after that is what is known as the Ice Age
WWGenius: if gen crosses up in a forest and no one is there to fail at blocking it...does it make a noise?

Coo can u bring sandra w/ u?
There are some great Gen's out there, but most will crumple if you zone to avoid getting crossed up. Most Gen's have the same gameplan, poke, poke, get in close, go for cross-up, score knockdown, crossup into hands/throw mixup. If throw, crossup into hands/throw mixup. If hands, poke poke, go for cross up. If they're in trouble, they then jump back and try to do his charge flying kicks in hopes to land one into ultra.Hitokage said:

I added you as a friend. My gamer tag is krp1976.
And Lake, I see what you're saying. I think my biggest problem was the footsies. I haven't really played that much lately, so getting I'm trying rebuild my foundation. He was definitely the best comp I saw so far on PC Live. Though I'm sure there are a lot better players online (especially since I'm in G3).

The amount of cross-ups I go for is entirely predicated on how my opponent reacts to the first couple--so you can really fall into bad habits because there are many people out there still completely lost on how to avoid or block it properly. My main focus though is to establish mk to force jump-ins and then go from there. Against shotos I try never to jump unless I know I have advantage. And many Gens I've seen seem to forget his ex roll goes through fireballs. Oh yeah, I go for resets off his ppp super wayyy too much--another instance of playing people that dont know the old man. I'm outta practice with him lately though, been focusing on Abel for a while now. Those 2, some Sakura and have also been messing with Rose.
