thedude.com: its at Yishun. The seperate mall with the cinema, Funland.2 tokens per game man &^#$*&@$.
Rokiseph: Haha so this is YOU! Honestly, I was just cheaping it up with my characters. Hauzer is a punching bag, yet you managed to fight me pretty well until I came up with Chunli’s bullshit. I really feel dirty after doing all those jump feirce,delayed second hit on you all day in the corner man. They really should have sped his ultimate guard up. Hauzer needs a battery! Levels=get out of jail free card for Warzard characters it seems.
Looking foreward to play ur Hauzer again man, i’m sure he can make it in your hands dude. Heck, ur the only guy i know that beats anthony’s top-tier team with Geif and Haomaru! Keep the low-tier spirit alive!
Tried out Gief today and wow, the lariat is stupidly good. It’s like anti-everything except for low attacks. Like Gunter said, you just need to be patient with gief and they will have to come attack you sooner or later. Jab SPD has like 1 character width (ryu size) range although I never actually got the SPD out against an opponent since everybody just jumps away from you to avoid the SPD. Lariat also moves pretty slowly. sometimes i know they would be doing fireball so i do PPP lariat to counter and they would be able to retract their hands before the lariat gets to them. this is from around 1/3 screen away.
finished the game with gief today as well. killing pyron is a piece of cake with gief. just lariat when he teleports and do a spd after you block that move where he rolls on the ground.
endings of the game are pretty lame. no words, just 6~7 pictures.
gief: you see gief in a tropical place like hawaii surfing, shopping, etc… with a girlfriend and then you find out that he’s daydreaming and he’s actually being surrounded by polar bears at the moment.
alex: alex enters a wrestling ring and fights Haggar. you see tom and patricia in alex’s corner and haggar’s daughter plus some other guy (pretty sure it’s not cody or guy) in haggar’s corner.
from what ive played so far this game is very footsies, defensive oriented. i doubt ill get very good at it coz my preferred play style is more jump/rushdown.
i like it though, feels solid and characters seem easier to use than say sf3 or alpha 3 for example, i have good success with sakura, rose and demitri despite not having used those guys for quite a while.
Yup yup. And I’m using Hauzer, Ryu, Guile, Jedah. I’m having trouble using Hauzer… He has a hard time keeping with my opponents especially fast ones.
Anyway, did Sakura’s standing roundhouse lose priority? My hadouken always beats it. Also Ryu’s shoryuken has a fewer invincibility frames. Jump ins have been trading with my shoryuken punch or just completely beats it.
Hauzer’s firebreath super has no invincibility frames or it may be that Ryu’s hadouken has high priorityes. I’ve seen too much moves that gets stuffed by Ryu’s Hadouken.
Does anyone play with Red Earth characters in Japan beelzebubble?
leo play has died down like 90%. mukuro gets some love. hauzer is once in a blue moon and nool (despite getting whored at the loke tests) never gets used.
mainstays atm are demitri (looking really good at this point), sak, karin, jedah and ryu. to a lesser degree ingrid, mukuro, gief and a little guile.
oh, Ryu’s hadouken just comes out FASTER now. And as far as i’m concerned i’ve seen HP srk beat everything. but of course since ST Ryu’s jab Srk’s been toned down so i’m not so surprised.
As for hauzer, ROKISEPH should teach you. After seeing him play Hauzer I dont believe he is unplayable.
At the moment I’m REALLY concerned about Jedah. It seems that he’s the new Nakoruru?
Not Nakoruru, but more like Magneto. Stupid triangle jumping. Does Warzard’s supers have invicibility frames?
Jedah is only a threat if he’s rushing like mad. He has no reliable anti-airs and lacks defense options, but his offense more or less make up for his horrible defense. Kind of like Dallas Mavericks. Nakoruru has the best offense in CvS1 and has good defense comparable to Ryo.
Let’s just give it some time.
Damn midterms… I’ll have to wait like a week just to play this game again. Next I’ll try to use Nool or Leo.
To mirror my counterpart in the north, there’s 1% Leo use down here as most have found ways around his shit. Mukuro players lose with him once and never touch him again. Leo for some reason seems to be the best out of the Warzard guys, it looks like he has the most versatility, Mukuro a close 2nd. No/not many Nool or Hauser sightings here though.
The average sightings here are Karin/Gief(me and 3 other guys in Naha), Ryu/Bison(some dirty fuck in Chatan Club Sega), Jedah/XXX, Alex/Ryu, Guile/Rose(rather interesting how the Alpha and ST meters work together). And of course, when in doubt, Ryu/XXX.
!Note!
Bison rapes Gief in the air. Can’t Jab or Headbutt Bison out the air 75% of the time. But they ALL stop jumping when Gief has meter. True story time: Ryu was rushing my shit down in the corner with (slightly early j.MK -> c.LPx2, c.MK XX Hadouken) xn. I had enough energy to block one more Hadouken, he has 55% life. I have full bar. He jumps in again with an early j.MK after the last Hadouken loop, I Air Slam super him, he dies. All watching attept to pick jaws up off floor. Fun for all.
Perhaps its like cvs2 where jab shoryuken beats all lower attacks and loses to higher attacks while the hp shoryuken beats higher attacks and loses to lower…
Anyway im still confused since there have been different reports in the beta and then in that video they should ryu doing rush fierce into combo… ah just how much is ryu like his ST version???
-does jump roundhouse cross up
-duck mp, combo to sweep.
-combo in and out of rush fierce, as well as the f+strong
-does his hurricane kick have the same priorties from ST? Can it cross up, and be a misc. type cross up on a taller character when you do the air version?
-does close stand roundhouse, put you at a advantage and can you combo after it??
Blah theres more, but i will wait to see if that gets answerd…
On another note, im not to sure why people would complain when ryu does 50% life on a shin shoryuken, when im sure just a 3-4 hit combo from ryu does about half life anyway. So a shin shoryuken from that stand point i would think should acctauly do more. =/
Co-sign. You will be VERY pleased when you get that one frame opening to actually pay them back for all the rushing they’ve done to you all match.
Dunno if RH crosses up, everyone uses MK in the air.
No idea on oldschool links, haven’t seen any.
No clue on the effectiveness of f+FP, all I see it used for is a pseudo dash.
Hurricanes beat wierd shit now, like Gief trying to do anything while crouching in front of it(can’t c.MP/HP at any range till it’s done)
No one is ever close enough to use/abuse close RH, simply because some chars throws are so good now. That and EVERYONE has a way to keep Ryu from using this as a meaty.
Shin Sho does like 55-60%, actually. This is on SF2 chars, BTW. There’s always a stronger of the two supers for the SF2 chars, it’s usually the one that has fewer purposes(Shin Sho, FAB, Somersault Justice, Super Psycho Crusher(?)).
