Damn I'm gonna have to buy that.
It's the same answer to "When's Marvel"?

With Capcom who knows, probably see Ultra Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition before we get trials..

I wish they would give us a time when we can play ES endless lobbies. I thought that was coming as a patch with the console release...
I've seen that before. I never played Guy for srs tho, so I don't know the specifics for why it fails or doesn't fail.

I've seen it a few times, yeah. But I'd only seen it happen to Decapre so I thought it was just a new character bug or something.
Ooh good idea, thanks!
What happened?
Does Capcom's PC porters know the button config has changed from console's "key map" like system to where the key configs are keyboard 1/2 despite the fact that if you're using a controller the menus and stuff use X360/controller button prompts?
It's a little annoying to try to figure out what I'm mapping. Apparently you can switch it to controller 1/2/3/4 but why do I have to do that for what shouldn't have changed?

A ryu knocked me down when I landed on a fireball and was about to win a close match. He backed off and threw a meaty fireball to chip.
Unfortunately I was sitting on charge with Decapre's Ultra 2 and activated it as i woke up. As soon as the knee hit his chest: "The player has left the session,"
I could taste the salt from the other side of the screen lol

The last funny rage quit I recall having was against a pretty good dudley that jumped too much. I caught on in the 3rd round and he lost 3/4 of his life to me anti-airing his jump ins... Then "player has left session."

Can anyone critique my Guy?
I want to know what I did wrong in this match and what I could have done to win it.

Your video is private.
And how do you get the Alternate 1's for the new characters on PC? Apparently you need a SF X T save, but do you have to actually own SF X T to get them?

Well I don't really play Guy anymore but you seem to be doing a lot of unsafe slides, and you don't hit confirm with low forward or jabs.. I think s.Mp is a good poke though, but you should probably end combos with mk run slide to get a hard knockdown, then go for elbow pressure or empty jump into c.lk, or something.

I would play an easier character to learn like Ryu, but I'm too comfortable with Guy's move set.
Basically, I'm pretty terrible at the game and I don't really have an idea on how to improve.

Well I guess practice c.lk c.lk s.mp (+s.HP) ->run mk and c.lk c.lk (or c.lp c.lp) -> bushin combo. I remember I played Guy in SSF4 pretty badly for like ever, hell this game in general until I watched how better players played the character (then switched to a top tier). I still think I'm pretty mediocre after 4-5 years (on and off) of SF4...
Is freezing still an issue for folks or has that been patched? I just got this today on Steam, the game rates my machine at an A with everything cranked up (not a big accomplishment), but I have frequent freezes online. Arcade Mode/Training are totally fine, but online matches fluctuate between being totally fine and freezing for like 2-5 seconds semi-frequently (no waiting for other player pop-up, just completely freezes). Since other modes seem to be 100% fine so it's either the game or my internet, and I can't see how/why it would be my internet since everything seems to be in order there, so figured I would ask before I start going nuts on trying to figure out if it's something on my end with my network or something.
Oh and in the few matches I played I got whooped on once by someone named NERF DEEJAY so that was hilarious. No, he did not play Dee Jay.

dp FADC into ultra?
just gotta practice it man, I remember it took me a looong time before I was able to get it down.(by the time I had gotten it, I already dropped ryu for Yun, heh) Try doing it slowly so your hands get a feel for what they need to do and slowly speed it up.
how many hours should i spend practicely solely fadc into ultra? like 200 or 500?
I think I'm in love...with Dudley. Dude has got some serious punch. Chaotix, or any other Dudley player, how does Dud approach the Poison matchup with her fireballs? Specifically her H fireball?
I'd say, depending on how consistently you practice it would take you around 1-3 weeks to where you can get it down pretty consistent.

Unsafe close cr. Roundhouse. Use cr. Forward instead. Just cr. short x2 and confirm it into the combo below.
You should practice his (cr. short x 2 > St. Strong > St. Fierce > Shadow Kick). Works on standing or crouching characters.
If standing you can do cr. short x 2 to Bushin Gokusaken.
Also if you plan on using U2, you should learn some Red Focus combos so its more viable. The way you are using it, its not at all viable.
If you want to learn frametraps. Guy close St. Forward is the one I seen used. If you hit them with it, you can go directly into st. Strong > St. Fierce (Target Combo).
Source: Not a Guy main, but I've seen some shit.

Are you serious? We've both been playing this game since Vanilla back in 2009, I'm surprised you're still struggling with it. To be honest, I struggled with it for years as well, I only got over the hump a few years ago and not it's not something that I drop more often than not. As for the how, their is no secret. Either you can do it or you can't. Their are some things that I've practiced for years and won't try in matches because I just don't have the execution for it. I don't think SRK, FADC, Ultra is hard but some things I find hard others find very easy. So I'm not sure how to advise you on that.
u wot
I broke it into pieces, and it took me about an hour before I had it down completely (before that point, in the year 2009, I had never done a rapid/roman cancel in my life, so I had started from zero).
First I practiced just hitting FA after doing a DP.
Then I practiced dashing after that sequence. This was the hardest for me to do.
Then I practiced doing dash -> ultra. This is easy because you can buffer the double quarter circles during the dash.
Then I just put them all together (kind of haphazardly kept messing up parts) and practiced until I got it. Feels pretty natural once you realize it's all one sequence that you don't stop hitting buttons for, no real pausing needed.

Been playing Ultra on PC since release and this netcode bug has been so frustrating I just want to stop playing completely. Every single time I play a ranked match I get a lag spike around the beginning/middle of the second round and it completely destroys the flow of the match and has both lost and won me games and I fucking hate it. And the worst part is that Endless has 0 problems if you play in a private lobby with friends, so I know it's not a problem with the base netcode but that stupid bug that Capcom, a multimillion dollar company with decades of experience and developing games, simply fucking missed!. However, I don't always have that luxury every time I start the game and sometimes I just want to play as many random people as possible and see how I compare, that's the point of Ranked isn't it? I'm seriously thinking of just buying gold and dropping another 15 dollars for the 360 version just so I don't have to deal with a completely fucked online ranked mode.
Yeah, breaking it down makes learning most combos like this a snap. You definitely do not need to be spending hundreds of hours on a single combo.

Anybody else looking for endless on PC? Ranked is such a disaster, but you still can't do Fight Req endless.
And I'm having trouble with double qcf when facing left. It was far easier for me in AE, now I have to really think about hitting the down-forward and forward or else I just get dp motion. It's weird.

Went to my scene monthly today. Got 7th or 9th, went 2-2.
Was one win away from facing 801 Strider in the bracket.
First loss was to an Akuma, decided to play Adon against him since I dont like Sagat vs. Akuma. It was 1-1 and in the final round of the last game I had him and I fucked up. He had been teleporting back on wakeup a lot and I got a knockdown and knew he was going to try to avoid pressure, so as soon as I seen the teleport animation I let Jaguar Revolver rip, but I didn't realize I needed the long version of the ultra so I didn't hold forward and he was able to block in time. Would have killed him easy. Pretty salty about it.
Second loss was to an Adon player who's flat out better than me. Although my Sagat was putting up a decent fight.

Its happened to me in endless too. Ranked or endless doesnt matter for me, in fact Ive had more stable games in ranked than in endless so far...

Yo, you went to GSR? Was that you on stream with the crazy Adon alt? I'm sad I couldn't go this time. I made it out last month though.

I think most people mean private lobbies.
It's not a silly rumor. The endless and online training modes aren't constantly polling for challengers.
I just beat Fragment super bad in ranked. Just totally destroyed him. I'm ready for Daigo (may he live forever).
Why would it poll for challengers if you already have a challenger and it's a 2 person max "room"? Does someone have source code or something?

Still think they should use this opportunity to get rid of ranked, bring back championship mode, and player matches
The netcode is still ass though. Getting rid of only the polling will not end all of the problems with the netcode. Only one of them. It'll essentially go back to ae2012 steamworks netcode which was still terrible.
You cannot.
Oh, well then, I guess I'll just spend an extra $15. No big deal.
