3rd Strike Online Thread

Indeed, I still love Tekken and owe it entirely for showing what fighting games have to offer if you play them the right way.

I think sayco used to be pretty strong in 3s, but he just plays Tekken primarily know.

and good game (I got embarrassed but its all progress I hope) to ryu24

nhl 07 was fucking hilarious.
the goalie was so dumb. that game was fun but so stupid. there were certain deke sequences which would beat the goalie 100% of the time we discovered.

Hey Andrew, Good game man. Keep playing.

how do you guys feel about Ace ERStar? I think that’s his name. he strikes me as not an idiot. he may be added to my ā€œplayers who play on xbl who aren’t idiotsā€ list.

Ace ERStar is pretty good. I play him often.

Is it just me or is 3SOE more prone to receiving hatemail than USF4? My Seth hasn’t received a single hatemail since Ultra came out, but my Oro got a lot of people’s panties in a twist. I’m on 360.

i think a lot of people just don’t like oro and see him as a kind of troll character.

Oro kind of turns the game into Marvel if you know the juggle combos and for players who don’t know how to avoid those I can see how that would be frustrating. I take hate mail as a badge of honor, like, ā€œYou beat me so badly I felt compelled to use the shitty PSN typing to let you know about it.ā€ xD

There’s a bunch of new people the last couple weeks. I’d imagine it’s mostly them. I’ve been getting more angry mail too.

I don’t know how the XBL messaging thing works, but on PSN it’s excruciating to type out anything, so I just can’t imagine why anyone would even take the time. :lol:

I never get hate mail, even when I kill people with unblockable loops. :frowning:

Yeah, I seldomly get hate mail in both 3S or USF IV. I have, however, gotten 4 different people to ragequit on my Twelve IN A ROW.

That’s why I can never hate Twelve. Guy is like the walking salt machine.

Shrug. All they have to do is counter-troll me with Chun. :wink:

I still get rage mail over just ā€œpoking and blockingā€ with whatever character I use, even though all I’m doing is punishing really bad mistakes the opponent is doing. I’m seriously just standing in front of them and letting them hit buttons.

Players need to know how to place their moves instead of wildly hitting buttons. They don’t understand how scary a walking Ken can actually be, for example.

On xbl you can either go to Xbox website to type faster or send a voicemail.

I rarely get hate mail except the last couple weeks. I think they’re mostly sf4 players cuz if you look at their profile half an hour later they’re playing that instead.

I’ve received love mails from guys who tell me to squirt in their mouths and bend them over after my sexy parries.

I think the general player base is a little more accepting of something like that. Even if I get frustrated because someone just WTFowns me and is tons better, I have to respect that.

I don’t know what it is about 3s, but when I lose, even when it’s close, I never feel like I got robbed or like I need to send a hate mail. SF4 for some reason makes me feel like I got screwed in a lot of cases.

SF4 brings out the worst in people… especially me!
In third strike I never care if I lose. I usually give people a ā€˜gg’ message .
On a similar note, can’t tell if this message was for real or just messing with me:

Yeah I woke up super(like a chump) with Q’s SA 2 for the win against that dude.

Third Strike is a gentleman’s sport compared to SF4, that’s why hahahah!

ggs to my nigga Sheamus tonight.
My lag mind games > yours.
