CHICAGO 2016-2017 Thread: Welcome New Players, check out the Facebook Group page as its more active!

lol yeah I’m just trollan u guys of course there are a lot of good players in chicago

But take a step back and what I said was true when it comes to a national level

We have like 1 known player in sf4 and a guy who can place one step above a 7 year old in mvc3 at evo

Not to discredit the last generation of 2d players either… aka the gg players and marvel players

Also a bigger scene doesn’t mean better players

16 biit is so far detached from everyone amd look how he did at evo

This generation is too content to just fall in line

And I guess that’s fine if u just play for fun… which is wat a majority of chicago is doing

^^^ people know who I am in street fighter 4 not that I deserve it but they know me and my random gief.

People knew me for Blazblue because I vehemently told people all over Dustloop/tournaments the game sucked and needed to get a proper system before it was going to be cared about by more than 12 people.

They called me a troll. Regardless, people still know me in America from West to East.

I respect your random Gief. </3

Also, I can no longer play SSFIV online, played against another Vega that just mashed on Cr.LP and Cr.MP. Wanted to choke him, he beat me and asked how I could have possibly have gotten 3k pp and that I was boosting. SSFIV is probably one of the worst Video games to attempt to learn anything online with.

Don’t stop playing online. It is still needed to fill the gaps that the midwest can’t provide, and it was the only way I improved faster than others for a time. Just don’t put stock in matches with a bad connection or a turbo player and you’ll save yourself the frustration.

“Online play must you” Marcus to his padawan learner pants.

Play online.

ggs to everyone at ignite names Adolfo (was t hawk/ seth player) shoutouts to jmoney and anthony for making those money matches need to learn that ken match up so i dont lose any more fight money lol.

and to the ppls saying i looked hella salty for losing to anthony of course i was i lost $15 dollars trying to run it back not like I insulted him or anything much respect to his ken need those high pressure matches to make me better.

Sf4 is prob one of the better games to play online,imo.

Definitely the best out of the current gen of fighters (although I hear BB online is good I never tried it)

In terms of netcode BBCT was the best fighting game netcode of all time. Better than GGPO or anything you can think of.

SF4 is up there in terms of decent but nothing current is even close to decent so SF4 wins by default.

I finally played SSF4:AE online for the 1st time the other day and it wasn’t bad at all, just make sure you have a good connection!

@BigMarcus Do you mainly play in Ranked Battles or mix it up with Ranked and Endless?

In other news. Fuck hat tier. Shit’s stupid.

I’ve updated tomorrow’s tournament post with important new information: [Aug 10, 2011] Galloping Ghost Arcade’s Windy City Wednesdays (Battle 2) (Brookfield, IL)

The pertinent part is reproduced below:

NEW! The Raffle: We are pleased to announce that we will be holding a raffle at some point during the tournament for people who bring setups to the event. Prizes on offer will include a MAS stick case with buttons, Galloping Ghost Arcade gear, and more. The only way to be entered into the raffle is to bring equipment or help with the running of the event (see volunteers below). You will earn one (1) raffle ticket for brining a monitor or for bringing a game system with at least one of the tournament games. People who run brackets successfully will also get at least one ticket. So again, please bring set-ups to GGA on Wednesday. And if you have anything you would like to donate to the raffle, please contact one of the tournament organizers.

I volenteer to.commentate.

I will be at the tourny tomorrow and the one on saturday, for shizzle.

I cant even play online. I just get disconnected cause my home internet sucks. Fuck comcast.

Yes

I have the 20mb down/5mb up Comcast connection and its fine, actually I have never had problems with Comcast. What I do recommend is for people to have a good router and to set your system to DMZ. Also check and see how you get your line in your house / apt is. Go outside and see if you can get into the box, look and make sure that that your connection has the least amount of splits, too many splitters and you are going to be losing packets left and right. I have gone and done this before, I went and plugged my line right at the first split to make sure I had the best quality line in my APT complex :). I am sure though you have done all this Humbag as you seem to know your technology.

The service in my area is sub-par. Lots of random drops for no reason and comcast just goes…idunnowe’lldosomethingthatwontdoanythingbutsaywedid
