AZ Thread: Lots of events! Read 1st posts for upcoming AZ tourneys/events

Muji: four the the five characters I have seen you play have the potential to abuse that fuck up damage reset glitch in the game. If you havent looked into it yet I think you should, for fun at the very least…

Reese: your whole team can use that shit too…

as long as you have storm, thor, modok, she hulk, spencer, x23, or deadpool on your team, you can do the trick. im not too overly concerned with this glitch. most characters can kill within 2 meters regardless

oh shit sooon
MSPaint skills for DAAAAYS!

Your quarters are welcome here. Gotta remember to jack up the difficulty before you show :slight_smile:

That brings up a point, you don’t need to pay the registration fee if you are not playing in the tournament. You are welcome to just plop in some quarters in the other machines and/or just enjoy the show :slight_smile:

one can only hope :razzy:

my ssf4 game is on hiatus atm. Rather focus on mvc3 right now. been playing sf4 for 2 years, need something new to play =)

Good one Armando. we need these type of ideas for sure :slight_smile:

Yeah man, I was actually gonna send you a message about it when I finished reading through the thread. The trick is comboing into that X-23 super, which I’m getting down. And along the way, I learned a pretty hardcore combo with her I’m hoping to try. Also worked out the DHCs, so if the conditions are right I can kill a character off a jab. My execution is far from able to handle that at the moment, gotta practice more with y’all when I get a chance.

Carlos, are you going to be on the east side in the near future? If not, I plan on going to Hazem’s next Friday so I’ll swing by and pick up the game then, if you’re available.

I hope capcom patches the DHC trick

That was my tournie at Desert Sky. Andy kept the name running at the ASU tournie.

This is actually badass!!

Nah bro I wont be headin to the east side for a while. When ya go to Haz’s just swing by my place. I got things I gotta do this weekend…

And it begins…

I thought the tourney scott threw at castles and coasters was also called rising phoenix, was it not? way to bite a name scott…

Yo, Jon when you get the chance msg me some of those X-23 combos on FB if you can. I will tryda msg you some of the ones that I focus on as well.

Why not patch it? It’s obvious it’s not what capcom intended when they made the damage scaling. What’s the point of having online patches if you can’t fix things and make the game better. FPS gets hella patches to fix glitches, I don’t see the problem with them patching fighters.

I don’t get why everyone is so against the P word, or at least it seems that way.

robb: no that was showdown in the desert/desert showdown. i forgot which version we used =)

patches on glitches are fine. As long as they patch quick before the strategy becomes a commonplace strategy. the longer something marinates, the more the players will be hostile to the change

No reason to patch that dhc thing. I think it’s great since its not open to all of the so called “top tier” characters. Makes more use for x23, deadpool, and storm. The only thing i would patch is being able to do supers after you alpha counter. All of your safe attacks are no longer safe when blocked since I can alpha counter into harddrive with sentinel… and if he catches your assist you can lose 2 characters (He can juggle you with c.M into launch anywhere on screen after doing this trick, not to mention use it with xfactor lvl1 for the kill). Other than that I think the game is fun. Can’t wait to play jill but I wish her power up mode wasn’t a level 3 (since it’s level 3 I hope its broken and not some silly speed up).

MK9 demo is out for PS Plus subscribers. Got to play it at my friends house yesterday.

I’m not sure what to think. I couldn’t find a control layout I liked on a TE. I know the game probably was meant to be played on pad or with the Madcatz MK stick but it was somewhat discouraging to me.

EX moves are done with block + attack on the input so that felt weird to me. Those X-Ray moves are damn easy to do(press two buttons at the same time) and they do a TON of damage.

Im old fashioned. The game was designed to be for the old school arcade layout which is what the new mad catz te mod is as well as the stick that comes with the te edition of mk9. Since mk format buttons were never really available at home over the years people would use a 6 button stick and it would layout like this:

HP block HK
LP block LK

In the case of 2v2 mode, substitute one of the block buttons to a tag button

Sure thing man, I’m at work right now but I’ll get them to you later tonight or something. Outside of the hop loops, the difficult part is comboing into Weapon X Prime to take advantage of the DHC glitch, you need to call an assist to do so during ankle slice and the timing is tough.

There is also a stance switch button and a throw button. The throw button isn’t really needed because you can throw with HP + LP. Stance Switch + Block does the X-Ray moves. I didn’t have enough time to experiment with what the Stance Switch button actually does. So probably something like this

HP Block HK
LP Stance LK

The game is really nice looking through. The blood and battle damage look great and if you don’t do fatalities you get a bad ass win pose animation. If you don’t do a fatality with Scorpion he takes out his sword and cuts a hole into hell, drops in it and does an awesome win pose.

2v2 mode isn’t in the demo so I haven’t got to try that yet.
