Maybe they could work at giving people what they actually want instead of ugly westernized crap

I don’t have much new that I haven’t shown already. I’ve had to rely on the charity of others to help me so far, and they either go AWOL or find new work elsewhere. I currently have no one to rely on apart from myself and unfortunately it’s stagnating the project.

I don’t talk about it that much because I just don’t want people to think I’m wasting their time? I want to wait until I have something more substantial before I blather endlessly about it.

Here’s some of the showable stuff I’ve got so far.

sanford threw his stick tonight at a tournament and twitter is going crazy about it

the face he makes earlier in that video after losing to ex wheel kick is priceless

ha ha man what a baby. it really blows my mind that people above a certain age act that way still.

So… hey everybody, lol.

I know I’ve been off the radar basically forever. Life got really busy really fast and it’s showing no sign of slowing down. But it’s all been a good kind of busy, so hopefully I’ll be able to keep you guys posted in the future instead of being a stranger forever.

I wanted to let you guys know that I’m finally coming back to visit for a little while in about two weeks! Hopefully I’ll be able to catch up with everyone and see how things are going. My level of openness to SF4 has increased a bit as of late so hopefully I’ll be able to get some games in with everyone in something.

LOL at that Saltford gif.

edit: i’m all for more dark souls esque games, i’ll try deep down out for sure when it eventually releases but i really doubt it’ll be as good as from softwares ability to make the games. Capcom is clunky as hell

edit 2: http://www.twitch.tv/teamsp00ky/b/512640193?t=69m0s saltford in action, that glare omg loooool

wow he really destroyed that stick … like absolutely totaled it

I tossed my stick once but the only thing I destroyed was the toes on one of my own feet

good stuff josh, im impressed.

please add a banana for scale josh, i need to know how giant these women are.

so here is more titanfall gameplay because i know you guys all care so much

got xsplit gamecaster and its easy as hell and awesome, 2~ hours of pub stomping because they dont have fucking matchmaking yet. just skip to random spots to see us wreck ppl

There’s one design we’re working on that will pretty much give you the idea…

Sanford Stick Smash vid

also note the single tear on his eye after his look at Rico

full schedule explains all his weird viper shit:

I really don’t get the EX wheel kick read by rico, it doesn’t beat anything except neutral jump and even then it’s kinda weird to do EX wheel kick on a jump read? I just tested and it doesn’t beat dragon punch or anything sanford would realistically do there except block, I guess, but I don’t see how sanford would ever just block in that spot

I dunno, rico often plays really weird and I can see why sanford was upset

like, to break it down, Sanford is either gonna DP or he’s not, so what’s Rico gonna do, he’s either gonna roll through the DP or he’s not, so Sanford has to guess whether the roll is coming and… throw it? So I guess Sanford either throws (beats roll) or DP (beats everything else including backdash). EX wheel kick doesn’t beat either of these I think, maybe it beats throw if done weirdly, not sure. Sanford chose to neutral jump to beat a tornado throw, predicting Rico would try to beat the throw/roll option (I guess?) but man, why do EX wheel kick lol, maybe if wheel kick also beats throw (and backdash, but Sagat backdash is a bad idea there)… so EX wheel kick beats a lot of non DP options I guess, except Sanford just pressing a random button… I dunno the whole thing is weird

You’re trying to rationalize SF4…

Glad he explained this because there was a ton of misinformation going around at the time of the event. The “Viper Ball” was developed back in the Vanilla days. A lot of people didn’t bother using it because the game registers the roll from back to up forward inconsistently so you end up with what he did at the beginning where you end up stuck in the air without the forward momentum, which is really bad.

I was under the impression he was using it for rapid Seismo’s because that’s an amazing tool in neutral but it felt like they did something from vanilla to ultimate because it’s a lot harder to do now. I don’t even see Marlin Pie go for rapid Seismo’s too often in Ultimate now. Seismo SJC FADC was easier in Vanilla and the technique was the same as doing it in SF4 so it’s completely believable that he was doing that technique legit during FR. You actually had to do Seismo SJC FADC for some of her combos in Vanilla as well.

It beats wake-up fireball :wink:

I think he was trying to beat neutral jump since he has a threat of tornado throw, but I think he went for EX one just because why not. Like, if I had a meter, I was about to die and I decided to read a neutral jump and at the same time go for a lucky chip (it happens sometimes) with a wheel kick, I would have done EX. Non-EX would work in a similar way but doing EX gives you that feeling that you’re giving your all.

EX has faster startup and does more chip damage too, that would have chipped Sagat out or could have caught him crouching

iirc it has enough active frames to catch backdash too

2 deep tactics 4 ricky~
