Triad NGBC Correction- Oh yeah…Deadly Assault for what I have tested WILL NOT go through Athenas Fire!
Cake:rofl:
I learn more with each vedeo. I’m also starting to hate on Young Geese’s DM, it seems to have retarted priority.:arazz:
Too bad you are in school, 'cuz I so would’ve been looking forward to playing you guys at Seasons Beatings.:sad:
Do you guys care if you have to play on PS2 ports at events and tournaments, even if the ports are perfect or near perfect? Or are you anal about playing MVS and AES setups?
Reason i ask this is that in the UK SNK/Neogeo crowd seem to be very rigid on this, i understand they want to play the game in its original form. They complain that we don’t run tournaments for them, but thats cause turnouts are too low for SNK/Neogeo games and they want to play on nothing but Neogeo AES sticks. But i think i can appeal to more and new gamers by running tournaments for some SNK/Neogeo games on PS2.
Thoughts anyone?
Nice info DG.
Oh yeah also about GB mode having an advantage over MAX2…not necesarily…while you cant roll in MAX2, you CAN TECH…meaning there are no guaranteed GuardBreak setups after knockdown unless you cant tech a move and thats pretty much it!!!
If not like anything else these Guard Break specials can be command Grabbed out of…I’ve seen it at times! Hard to do butr I have seen it done!
Young Geeses Deadly Rave quite simply is the best super in the game…
**r3ko-**Something interesting about that is it depends on which version has the best port…if its Ps2 we use s2…but if the port is shitty as hell on Ps2 (cough KOF2002) we use ARCADE etc with converters…
I was thinking on running possibly either RB2 or LB2 tournament in the near future. As you probably know both of these games are extremely expensive for AES, and we would no doubt need more than 1 copy. Are the PS2 ports for these acceptible on a competitive level?
Of RB2 yes its playable at a tournament level. Last Blade 2? ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!
Also after touching SST for the first time since Vegas…I now fully understand how Tokidos Mina works…WATCH OUT…That shit is mine now…so if you somehow get past Amakusa…Ten Mina awaits you!!!
Ok cool thanks for the quick replies, thats solves that one. Thinking about it, if its not too much trouble could you type up a list of acceptible ports that are tourney worthy that are on PS2, but DC is fine too. Really appreciate it, it might get some of the UK heads to be abit more willing to support future tournaments, since your extremely well respected when it comes to SNK/Neogeo.
backturned state is such bullshit…
r3ko- Let me know anything I can do to help you out man…seirous…yea DC overall fr LB2 is beter than PS2…if you want to run a turnament for LB2…DC is a muchbetter translation…Ps2 is **HORRIBLE **FOR lb2… for RB2 WE USED IT IN THE EVO WORLD TOURNAMENT,
XTG- There are really only a few throws in NGBC that are of concern…Kims is one of like the 2 in the game…because of the BT state…
Other than that one of the only ways to be BT is crossup or from Deadly Assault…you wakeup BT.
Oh yeah I got a **90% Bomb Trap with Goddess Athena **I will start using so watch out!!!
At Neoempire we just had a huge discussion (argument more like it) about the lack of SNK games at our events.
Our last major event which included an SNK game, kof2002 on AES was back in January. But only 12 players showed up for it. Since then we have completed a ranking battle season at our local arcade, where turnouts were steady at about 15 players each time, but over the season had a grand total of 26 individual players.
And as a staff member i really want to help them out, and get more SNK games in the lineup at our events, but they aren’t willing to compromise. For them its AES or nothing.
All these guys are frequent arcade attendees btw, so the traditional Neogeo layout on the sticks is all they are used to, ABCD layout.
Now i know more players would be willing to enter SNK games if some of the tournaments were on PS2, since the ports are alot easier to acquire and let players practice at home aswell as let them play with their own sticks and whatever button layout they choose. Cause lets face it the AES stick while good for its time, just isn’t quite up to quality that all these fancy Hori and custom jobs offer.
What can i do to change the hardcore fans minds?
Acknowledge the route SNK Playmore is going, and tell them to either a)keep playing kof2002, or b)play these new games which are in arcades that are not on that MVS/AES system. There ps2 counterparts are arcade perfect (i don’t know about NGBC because of its loading problems, but thats a small thing). The thing is, do they want to stay in the past and keep playing kof2002 (which by the way has no good port for it) or play the newer SNK games?
How do they feel about emulation? I know it’s all about supporting the scene but if you have the games and they want it as close to arcade as possible, would a modded xbox work for them?
JDash, the players don’t like any SNK thats not on the Neogeo hardware funnily enough. Very few players here like or play NGBC, SStenka, Neowave, etc. Most of them would rather play even some of the more dissappointing kofs like 2000/2001 or even something really old school like 94 or 95 than any kof or snk game not on the Neogeo hardware. For them Kof2002 is the pinnacle of KOF, along with kof98. I’ll try the arcade perfect argument again though.
Overworld, Neoempire does not allow nor condone the usuage of emulation or illegal roms at events.
Oh well I understand. It would seem your only options would then be:
- Convince them to use existing ports of later games.
- Pony up cash for the originals.
Then just tell them they are not helping their community to grow period. Accesibility is the way communities grow. Ask them this, is this a community or a get together, because i would want to play new people.
Either that or just set up the game sometime, and see if you can get anyone to start playing. It’s hard to resist at least looking at a different game when people are playing it. Say it’s just for shits and giggles and maybe they’ll try it and find they like it, whether it’s arcade perfect or not.
Just picked up Fatal Fury Battle Archives.
Anything I should now?
-SH
and Kim gets an easy 45% combo including throw, give or take, off of backturned opponent…its been in i dont know how many SNK games, its fucking retarded, its something that SNK just hasnt bothered to ug/correct/fix/ect…lets not mention he’s top tier without BT state bullshit…Crossups are crossups but in any other fighter from the second hit onward in a combo the opponent is no longer backturned state…no reason for it to exist after the initial crossup hit…just shittin programming…and why does an opponent wakeup backturned after being hit by a Double Assault? come the fuck on…
get NG->PS2 converters.
