I just finished talking to a cousin of mine back home in Kuwait. Apparently SSFIV is already on sale there for roughly 130-140 USD. Not sure which version though.

I'm not really surprised since they had a similar thing going with MGS4 and a few other games in the past.

I'm actually surprised that they have it this early. I thought the release date was in a month or so no? Either way, I'll have to wait like the rest of you guys since I'm not there right now. I wouldn't hesitate to pay that much if it meant I would get the game in my hands right now.

Don't worry guys. It's not what you think. A Kuwaiti prince was tired of waiting, so he purchased a dev team and had them create SSFIV just for him. :lol

Apparently it got a 7.9d rating.

Dan for god tier

why would anyone pick his old Ultra? It does less damage and isn't as versatile.
well, unless you count wasting a full meter on gado xx supertaunt xx U1 "versatile" (poongko demonstrated this setup doesn't work with U2).

Dan is all about beating the opponent and having fun while doing so, nothing is better then using his original super to KO someone online for the win :lol

What region is Kuwait? PAL or NTSC? I guess the only reason the game is out because it's a rather small shipment that was needed for that market?

The Chun-Li combo was poorly thought out and could easily do more damage.

You probably know this already but that was no indication of how strong Chun's new Ultra is. That player did 7 moves before doing the Ultra so it got scaled to hell and back. I'm sure Dan's new Ultra does do more damage anyways, just that the video may be misleading to players who don't know how damage scaling works in SF4/SSF4.

What exactly does Juri's time ultra do? more atk?

I really need to brush up in SFIV again, not too long now before super :D

Yeah I know. Scaling and all that. I don't even expect her new Ultra to do a whole lot of damage anyway. I was just suprised and how much Dan's did.

i prefer when there's one serious guy and one animated guy doing commentay
dual-color commentary is ess

Yipes or Hu need to be the official in-game announcer. Way better than F-Zero/Tager guy

and yeah Rockefeller is pretty amazing.

Most of the console games are NTSC, a few shops would carry PAL/European versions (except for region free games). There are even Middle Eastern versions. I remember seeing a copy of GTAIV with that label for PS3.

They don't usually ship specifically to Kuwait thought. Most shops deal with other foreign stores.

Well, the lag when we played wasn't that bad. I'm used to play against peeps like d5Masahitokeda(from japan) with one bar and many other with 2 bars in championship mode, so maybe I'm used to it and you're not. Also something something I play better something something cry moar something something ;)

Thought I would put up the list of new info for Makoto that "Sharin" on SRK has found from playing

Im back from playing super today, only makoto again, but not as much as time as expected. Couldnt get videos, but this weekend im playing like 48 hours nonstop again with friends so expect more info and videos for sure.

Some new info:

Abare has 2 distances, the close one is holding KKK

You can combo level 2 FA into abare, FA 1 didnt connect at any distance. You can also combo abare after an anti-air fukiage, its not full animation ultra, however ALL hits will connect and it does good damage (you can still jc the last hit and tsurugi). Dont think you can combo it after karakusa even cornered, tried it many times.

I couldnt get Hp hayate cancel c.mp, dont think its possible. Obviously, not HP hayate cancel HP. I dont think we are going to combo anything except c.lp there.

Makoto can also combo an anti air fukiage (no need to EX) with anoother fukiage. Tried against ryu and you cant land fukiage against a grounded opponent, even if they are stunned (forgot to try it crumpled, but will tell you soon) Her focus is fairly good and quick ill say.

Neutral throw does 200 stun(the headbutt one), hp xx hp hayate does 400 stun if i remember well. Didnt had lots of time to try all the moves, but you make an idea more or less.

Her super is invincible on startup, like in 3s.

Jump mk can cross up, but the hitbox is trash and not reliable, so ill say makoto lacks a decent crossup.

Im failry dissapointed with her right now, and thats because im feeling the weakness of her mixup game. Basically, 90% of makotos shit can be nullified by backdashing or jumping back (thats how it looks at least). I dont see her being more than mid tier with sf 4 reversals and the fact that risk/reward seems to be always in your enemy´s favor.

Jump straight punishes karakusa for those who wondered, also ive got thrown out of karakusa many times (maybe my timing is a bit off) . Also, i think she will have a hard time if you fall back any moment or 100% rushdowns characters because she lacks a decent reversal herself, ill say she is pretty free on wakeup and when cornered.

On a sidenote, cody is going to be a monster, he is VERY scary.

More this weekend, keep questions coming if you have any because ill have plenty of hours to test her much much more this time.

I noticed that each hit of EX Hyaku dropped from 50 to 40, possibly because it lands four hits more often now.

As such, j HK(100x1.0), st HK(100x1.0) xx ex Hyaku(160x0.8), UC2(330x0.6) will do 526 damage. 491 if you leave off the j HK, which makes it much more viable because a whiffed dp is a free close st HK.

Kinda hard to tell with rounding, but it looks like Kikoushou does 330 max.
Click to expand...
it'll be off in places but i pen and paper with sakura often and its almost always exact [until otoshis 48 damage comes in to say fuck you math]

in makotos case:

karakusa[???] - 40
standing fierce - 100
hayate [???] - 110
super ultra 1 - 603 <- yay rounding
cr.jab - 20
hayate[???] - 90
tsuikage - 100
cr.medium - 60
ultra 2 - 390
fukiage - 100
ex tsuikage - 160
ex hayate = 100 damage [juggle]

I could tell that in Makoto vids on youtube right now. So many times I've seen that foot go right through their opponent.

How about the option to just turn the shit off entirely?

Canned commentary has always sucked. ALWAYS.

All I want to hear is ROUND X, FIGHT and YOU WIN/LOSE!

The rest of it can fuck right off.

I'm actually with you on this. In vanilla you could lower the volume for voice, but it also killed the characters' voices, too I think

Those are gonna be the new ones I'm picking up too. I'm not very good and don't get a lot of play time, so I pick based on which ones have the designs that appeal to me most, even if they suck. I'm diggin those two more than the rest. Nice to know they'll be pretty good if I learn how to use them well.

I'm disappointed with the impressions of Makoto so far, well since she was revealed really. It just seems like it will be too much of an uphill struggle to use her, much like Fei Long in vanilla.
