Don’t sue me if I’m wrong, but it’s $5 to use game room only for FG’s, and there are no age restrictions at GGA.
CHICAGO 2016-2017 Thread: Welcome New Players, check out the Facebook Group page as its more active!
Well sorry guys, this really sucks, but Doc just text me and said that it seemed that they were both(game rooms) going to be booked all night but that he would tell me if they cleared out early. Damn really wanted to play tonight, anyone have somewhere for us to play at? Its too much of a toss up at this point, who knows when those guys will leave now. We definitely need a place to play at on Fridays / Saturdays…
That’s cool man, it can’t be helped.
I’m going to watch the thread tonight for the next few hours to see if one of the rooms frees up for any reason. If one frees up me and my oldest will be on our way ASAP. Thanks for trying to set this up D.
Yeah best we can do is hang tight and see if they take off somewhere around 10 perhaps.
Yeah, that’s what I’m thinking too.
That may be true but not many people are playing soul calibur 4 right now. Once SC5 comes out you better believe he’ll get back into it… who doesn’t like free money?
The people in the rooms are clearing out. You can start showing up if you still plan to.

DOC JUST CALLED, THEY ARE CLEARING OUT ONE OF THE ROOMS NOW!
LETS GO EVERYONE!!!
Bring setups please!!! I will be bringing one…or two.
Be there in 20. Just 2 360 sticks though, I don’t have a lagless setup yet.
So ignite is on PS3 setups right? I was going to head out on Monday
I play…but yeah…not many peeps here play BlazBlue anymore. Damn shame, really.
Tactics: When KoF XIII comes out, thats what I’m gonna be gettin’ down on the most. I can’t run it on my laptop, unfortunately (runs WAY too fuckin’ slow) so…yeah, October can’t come soon enough.
Thanks to those that came out, had a lot of fun. GGs btw as well to everyone, also you should come out more Yanu had a lot of fun getting some games in vs Yun divekicks.
Yeah I like the game so far Kenny, the meter management is pretty cool as well as the combo potential.
It’s byos, and iirc so far only xboxes are being brought.
Thanks for letting me and my son to play AE on your laptop last night D, I really appreciated it. Ran super smooth on your machine, after we were done playing I had the game run a benchmark on itself and it averaged 109 frames per second. Silky smooth. I know it’s an ASUS but what’s the model of the unit?
After last night I’m thinking I’ll bring various games and a 360 w/ vga cables going forward. I don’t have a lagless monitor though, was that ASUS on the table provided by GGA and for use by whoever? I guess worst case I could hook it up to one of the Vizio’s on the wall for some sparring, I know that’s not optimal but more setups can’t hurt if someone wants to play something.
Don
Your welcome man, it is a really good laptop for the price, i researched laptops quite well to find the cheapest for performance buy.
Also those Vizios are not in game mode, Yanu put one in game mode last night and I guess it was slightly better. Not much better you can really do as big screens will always have some input delay. But its not much to worry, Don, they are buying more of the Asus monitors for us to use. Come on out on Wednesday Night Fights at GGA, should have the stream running this week.
Also going to be talking to sponsors soon so our streams and events get sponsored and extra cash can go into the Ranbats/Tournaments/Streams. Anyways if you have not gone to GGA since opening night you are really missing out now.
D
Fair enough. Wednesdays are going to be a weekly thing for me and my oldest. I’ll be bringing a 360 setup with games/sticks/vga adapter from now on, if there is a display available, I’ll hook up to it.
Thanks man.
well im moving this week and i live by the metra train station…so i have a lil bit more transportation in and around the city. I have a group of ssf4 players out here that go to events and sometimes im able to ride hours away with them.
oh trust me im aware. Cviper, abel, and yun are my main concerns though. I also play Guy, and Ken. so my off days with guile are okay.
Yeah Raiden is hella stupid. Teams with K’ and Raiden are pretty fucking silly at top levels.
K’ really doesnt have to use meter and can just use the canceling mechanic to do stupid damage of almost every single hit and his normals and specials are silly. He builds good meter and a good reason why hes almost always the first character used.
Raiden needs meter to do his 100% but also to be good with Raiden you gotta be good at only using 2 buttons for 17? seconds until you have 2 fully charged dropkicks. So you gotta be decent at handling rushdown (K’ kinda eats him up) and then use your dropkicks wisely and finish the 100% which is pretty stupid easy.
The twins are manageable; you just have to play super lame with the light booms and bait out the projectile invincibility moves if they’re willing to take the risk. Don’t poke too much and just focus on the booms/AAing.
Abel got easier, Akuma got harder, C Viper stayed the same and if you haven’t played Reyart’s El Fuerte yet…you’ll be adding that to the list shortly (potentially Domingo’s Ibuki as well, that’s a soft 6-4).
