Basic Video Tutorial/Guide for Total Beginners for SSF4

Awesome this series is perfect. I still such at links though lol

I love this series, beautiful start for me. Not a total beginner to the fighting-genre but definitely a newb to the SF series. This is perfect.

Thank you so much for these videos helped me alot:P

Thank you for these vids!

After playing all the later iterations of SF like SF2, I realized that I was missing some knowledge. These videos helped give me the understanding that, while some things are fundamentally the same, there are more tools available to use and I appreciate the time and effort that the OP took to make these. I hope a lot more people take the time to check these out and level up their game. I can’t praise it enough.

this is a great thread. thanks for making such a comprehensive guide for the basics of sf4. this has helped me learn by myself without even having the game.

I really enjoyed watching these vids. I learned a lot and was disappointed to have ‘graduated’ and run out of new lessons to view.

I’m familiar with other fighting games such as Tekken & Mortal Kombat which I’ve mostly played over the years, but the first Street Fighter I wasn’t exactly serious since I was kid and all I knew to do is button mash like crazy…Lol! After Street Fighter I messed around with Capcom Vs Marvel and Street Fighter Vs SNK in the arcades and still I had no clue what to do then also because I didn’t own those games.This early Sept I will be getting SSF4 AE XBox version for the reasons of fighting my friends and wanting a new serious fighting game to explore.

Your videos about the Ultra, Super Meter, Focus Attack, FADC, Linking & Chain actually got me to understand and even more interested in Super Street Fighter 4. Your videos is straight to the point and I totally suggest these videos to any newcomer as it explains everything they need to know from basic moves to the very complicated stuff. However the beginners I really agree with TBird on the fact that if your new to this game the first thing you need to do is head straight for the training mode before going to play. This way you will discover what character is right for you and learn what moves they have to offer. Now if you do the opposite of TBird’s suggestion and go online without a single clue on how to use any character then I must say you have some guts. The truth is if you have no knowledge about any character you will lose a bunch and be smacked around like a helpless rag doll that is being fed to the wolves. True story and I have seen this happen to many people on different fighting games.

Now i’m doing much better , but i need to put in more time before i go online.

thank you T-Bird so helpful!

[LEFT]So links are connecting punches to kicks right? And chains are the same punch/kick?[/LEFT]

[LEFT]So for example:[/LEFT]
[LEFT] [/LEFT]
[LEFT]Link-Lp, Cr.Lk[/LEFT]
[LEFT]Chain- Lp, Lp, Lp or Hk, Mk, Hk?[/LEFT]

Correct

Any help with the stick command for guiles ultra 1

Is it just me, or are there no links to anything in the beginner level section? I want to watch these videos but all I can see is the name of the video and the length. Where can I actually watch the video, why isn’t it linked?

Sorry if this is a noob question, still getting acquainted with how this forum works.

Which post are you referring to? The first post in this thread has all the vids. If you can’t see them there might be an issue with your browser.

Just the very first post, all it has (for me anyway) are the name’s. There’s no videos on the actual page, nor are there links to any of the vids. I’m using Firefox, i’ll try with Chrome.

Those links definitely show up as videos on the first page. Try Chrome, and be sure to turn off peerblock, or any isp limiting program you have, sometimes that can interfere with images and videos showing up.

Hey T-bird, I just got into SSF4, around 2 weeks ago and already thrashed my 2nd fightpad today, so while I´m on " SSF -cold turkey" for a few, until my round 2 FightStick TE, gets here in the mail, I´ve finally get a chance to see your videos. Just wanted to tell ya, what a big help they are, !
BTW; could you make a tutorial on how to play with a fightstick, with a sleeping baby in your arms?? :o)

Welcome Mikester, I played many games holding my boys, but never found a way to use a fight stick AND keep them asleep :slight_smile:

TBIRD, I watched every video and they are well done. Thanks for your hard work to integrate newer players to the genre and this beautiful game.
Even though I have been playing SF since SF2, (though I am by no means a tourney worthy player) I learned a great deal.
I shared a few of them with friends and will continue to pimp 'em out for ya! =o]
