About time.... (Reno thread)

What time do the tournaments start?.. 8pm?..

As for the post by Gary, No, we hate T4. As for Paul’s question. Who’s the tourney guy anyway? I know I prolly won’t make the cut. Anyway, see ya’ll this weekend.

P.S. Now seriously, how many people do you guys think goes to the tourney forums and try to find a tourney, let alone any Reno fewls? I doubt any really. Unless your an important place like SVGL and such.

Well I checked before I poped shit just to cover my ass, but didn’t see anything. The tourney announcments in there would mainly benefit out of town people and people we don’t know. It looks like Yushiro checks this thread pretty regular… dunno about those Davis guys. They might benefit from posts in there. Especially if the tourneys are gonna go into Apex it feels shady for them to be almost secret.

JP: Have you started playing FFTA yet? I’ve played about 2 hours so far and already some of the battle system is pissing me off. It doesn’t seem as good as Advance Wars 2. The way that turns are based on a char’s speed kinda screws up your strategy. If you have magic that affects bystanders you can’t plan your strat very well cuz you don’t know when you’ll be getting your chance to use that. I just noticed as I was turning it off that you can set the L button to tell you turn order, but the game doesn’t tell you and it seems really unintuitive. It also seems to hard to look up the opp’s stats. And you can’t check your opp’s movement range.

Actually it’s being held by a shit load of sponsers…not just SD. This will probably one of the biggest LV (even Nevada) tournies in years. Only 15 bucks to get in for that one day, not 45…unless you wanna go to the event for 3-days in a row.

You would have to check the sc.com to see what the prizes are n stuff. The good thing about this tourney is that it is free.

Wish they would sponsor some other fighting games as well. ghei

That halloween party sounds good to me since I don’t really do anything on Halloween. Hopefully I can remember where you live.

Tournies this weekend? At the Atlantis or at Rob’s, I don’t like cvs2 at the atlantis cause the 2nd player side doesn’t work all the time. what’s the entry fee and what’s the format?

Since shizzle needs planning, here’s the deal…

SATURDAY TOURNAMENT: SINGLE ELIMINATION, NO ENTRY FEE FOR CVS2/GGXX. TOP 5 (?) COMPETE IN VEGAS VS. RENO. :o STARTS AT 8:00PM ANDREI YOU BETTER SHOW UP ON TIME THIS TIME >:O

He doesn’t have to, remember…?

But if he does show up, I know he’s gonna remember Vice City, right Andrei…? :slight_smile:

Todd is cool…

Sweet, least everyone has a reason to play seriously :D. And Gary, no I have yet to try FFTA in GBA (I haven’t bought it yet :(). Anywho, yea next tourney I will post it in the tourney forums, for the hell of it since well you’re right. The problem is, well, people don’t wanna drive to Atlantis or doesn’t have any idea how to get here :(. Anyway, I will post it tonight since I have time. Also on the side note. Is being level 45 at chapt1 beginning of chapt2 in FFTactics and at lvl 45 normal in FFTactics and can you still learn yell in FFTA?? Is it the same game or different? Just wondering hehe.

P.S. I HATE LAPTOP MOUSES ARGH!!!:mad: :mad: :lame:

That link doesn’t even work. ^^;

I’ve got bad news for everybody… Final Fantasy Tactics Advance sucks my ass. The battle system seems really dumb to me… and since that is basically the whole game well… I don’t think I’ll be playing it much longer. Advance Wars 2 has spoiled me.

JP, I never played the original FFT so I don’t know. The advance version is not the same game though. From what I’ve read in reviews, one of the big differences in the Judge. The judge is this homo who makes random rules for the battles. That isn’t so bad, but he also randomly dicks you over. You can position a char with their back to a dead body so that they will have better defense and then the Judge can just randomly move the body so your plan was pointless. What is the point of having a “strategy” game that has random elements? I’ll try to remember to bring my GBA up with me and I’ll show it to you.

FFT > FFTA

I was going to buy FFTA, but I was bored and tried the ROM first. I realized this game was a total fucking joke when one of the little bastards goes…

“Wouldn’t it be soooo cool if we could be in a video game, just like Final Fantasy!!!”

And the whole judge thing…wtf.

Maybe I am just being harsh, but how do you go from totally ph@ FFT to this garbage. I’d rather play Kid Kool in an endless loop for the rest of my life than put any effort into this waste of a perfectly good cartridge.

Remember what? What does this obscure comment mean? Just wondering.

Anyway… Just a reminder for everyone to show up tonight around 7:30-8:00 so we can start early, and have a quick tournament.

You don’t have to show up on time…your Johnny can show up late and kill everyone…

But…on the subject of remembering…GTA: VC? :slight_smile:

Comes out next month on Xbox! I’m surely picking that up, considering my JPS2 wont play any American games, I had to skip out on those two gems. ;___;

Also, Prince of Persia comes out next month! Best platformer ever!

o.o Nick S.! >:O I wanted to borrow IIDX, yet you didn’t bring it. ;; And I’m a hella indian giver (sorry Nick C. @@).

CHEEEESE-AHHHH-BURRRGERRR!!!

I’m going to miss that little guy. :frowning:

Hey guys, post your ideas about making reno crew better. we’re already doing really well in alot of games, but let’s figure out how to become even stronger. :slight_smile:

I think we should all get together sometime and just hang out. No, seriously! There is no Reno Crew if we all don’t get along, and if we all just go out to some movie or something, then we get to know each other better, and can start to build relationships, and work together to become a stronger crew.

If we just play games every friday/saturday, then all we do is just get used to other peoples strategies, and never really improve. If we can build relationships and teach each other things we don’t know, then I think that would help immensly.
