Actionhank:

Mirror matches are stupid, but there are still things you can take away from them, may as well do them.

Also, I’ve talked to a few people about this and I wanted to finally come out and address it but:

The mix-tape has taken too long, and the gameplay footage in it would make nearly every player involved look terrible. We’ve come a long way since then and I think from both a representative and entertainment standpoint the footage would not do us justice. Its been 2 SB’s since the trailer, and I just think at this point its gone on too long. While I do appreciate your work and editing Kam, I think the time for this has long since passed. Not only are there old iterations of games in there, but lets face it, we sucked pretty hard. At least now we can have respectable showings in regionals and some majors. I’m sorry if this disappoints or offends anyone, but it had to be said.

I feel like the majority of my matches in the mixtape won’t come close to the skill level I play at now, no matter how much editing you use. I would be put off by the gameplay knowing what I know now. Most of that stuff isn’t even flashy or presentable, and far short from mind blowing.

Heh. Not mad at all actually.

It is not be possible to retain the same hype that it once had when we all started the second project. I haven’t had the motivation to really work because I do feel that even if I finished it, all the hard work will not achieve the effect I wanted. I waited too long and when other things got in the way, I never made the time aside to sit down and do it. Everything from my computer problems to school…it’s just kinda hard to make the time that Josiah had when he edited the first one. However, I do not think that the footage should go to waste and neither should the idea. I think the biggest problem was that I was aiming too high. I wanted to take on a project that I could not do by myself and prove…well…nothing really. lol. This is something that happens pretty often (even in my photo work) when I tend to over-think my ideas; nothing good comes from them. Josiah is not even around like he used to, so the spark for the mixtape isn’t the same anymore.

Would anyone still be interested in seeing the rough sequences anyway? The memories are too good to pass up.

Osirun · 2010-12-09T04:34:20.000Z

Even with older footage, the editing was always solid, Kam. I’ll definitely watch it over and over. A great portfolio example piece if nothing else!

Actionhank · 2010-12-09T04:37:12.000Z

I’m still ok with the non-gameplay footage being reused or something, some of that stuff is funny and good for nostalgia’s sake. I just meant gameplay footage. Or, cut it down a lot and release it in small segments when you can. I think it would go too over the top with super stylistic editing, just keep it simple and the content will speak for itself.

Well I think we’ve had our fun with the mixtape whether everyone else thought it was necessary or not. However, I’ve realized that mixtape has become a concept and the funny thing about concepts is that they cannot be imitated (think about all the bad sequel films in Hollywood). I’m not ready to hang up the gloves because I still think there is something to salvage with all that footage. Now that Zach is introducing a pretty good idea that the whole community can get in on, we can attempt to grow from this. Zach’s idea has the proper motivation and if I can help see it succeed, I will.

Just not this week because I probably won’t be at AL. lol. Would anyone like to game Saturday/Sunday?

::EDIT:: Yeah, I’ve still got some pretty good candid moments. I’ll upload them soon

ArcadeLegends · 2010-12-09T21:36:38.000Z

I have some exciting news for a handful of you. First off, I sold the Hakuto No Ken setup because no one really ever played it or asked to play it anymore. The good news is that I was able to buy a GUILTY GEAR XX ACCENT CORE with that money! Until I can get it in a dedicated cab, we will have to use it on the CvS2 cab. I will probably end up gutting the CvS2 cab and putting it into one of the Astros once one is fixed. Then I will have the CvS2 cab wired like the 3S cab so we can easily switch out PCBs. Then all the OG ST players will be happy to be able to play on a nice American parts cab when they visit. GG is shipping from Japan so it’ll probably be a couple weeks. You guys will know the moment it’s here.

Also, I couldn’t figure out the proper place to post this on Dustloop forums. If anyone who frequents there would tell me or wants to post it themselves, I’d appreciate it.

Osirun · 2010-12-09T22:19:13.000Z

That’s really cool, Jesse! Hopefully Kyle or Matt will know where to post the news on Dustloop.

EDIT: Storm and C.Viper revealed. Vids on Gamespot

Seems like that rumor list is getting more true each reveal. Unfortunately I’m not excited for either of these characters.

Only rumored characters I’m excited for are: Hsien-Ko, Mike Haggar, Sentinel, and Taskmaster. Of course, more DLC down the line is exciting to me as well.

I dig the look of Storm’s supers.

neon_geon · 2010-12-09T22:47:16.000Z

hey guys ill be at al tonight prob around 730 or 8 something like that. so all those promises i made last week still apply. and also anyone wanna play some project justice i need to prepare for my victory at christmas combat.

Osirun · 2010-12-09T23:40:21.000Z

@Keith: Great! TvC fight night already has 2 players! XD

Actionhank · 2010-12-10T00:00:49.000Z

@ Nathan: I thought you woulda been happy to see Viper, she seems to fit in just fine. Who knows, you may not even have to worry about stricter execution with her.

I’m glad they didn’t change anything special/super wise with Storm, who knows if she’ll be anywhere near as good as MVC2. Hopefully not for balance sake.

Also I’m trying to collect any and all Fighting Game OSTs, mainly Capcom, but I like some Namco music too. If any of you have any files laying around on your computer let me know. If you can direct me to some torrents/download sites that’d be cool too.

Shadowhaxor.net. I can give you my login and pass since they dont let people register anymore.

@Adam: I’ll definitely try her out I just don’t think her style fits me. I prefer those tanks! XD

Slow, lumbering, sounds good :tup:

Actionhank · 2010-12-10T01:23:05.000Z

Well if the rumor list holds true, Sent will be right up your alley. I’m assuming she’ll have her seismo as one of her assist options (ala Captain Commando, I mean she pretty much IS CC move wise), which will be good. 3v3 offers some choices though, you may just want to have a character stocked for their assist and nothing else, like CC on team Santhrax or Psy on MSP. Doesn’t hurt to learn those characters too, but the goal is to keep them for their support.

ArcadeLegends · 2010-12-10T01:41:56.000Z

Adam I have some Capcom and Namco soundtracks you could rip. Just remind me next time you come

neon_geon · 2010-12-10T02:11:22.000Z

wait im confused adam you think c viper is gonna play like captain commando…i highly disagree. im not sure what game your thinking but if your talkin about cc from mvc2 then viper will not play like him. she might have an aa awesome assist but id imagine it be more like omega reds. she moves herself in an upward diagonal angle dante has captain commandos aa assist

Osirun · 2010-12-10T02:19:01.000Z

Solid point on the assist option, Adam. It may be that CC or Psylocke situation where the assist is so good that you have to learn the character just to have their assist on your team. I guess we’ll see : )

neon_geon · 2010-12-10T02:40:46.000Z

i cant imagine viper havin good assist. i mean they could be good depending on priority and start up frames but her moves dont seem like good assist moves. im assuming shes gonna have a ground pound(ground), her hp thunder knuckle(anti air), and prob a burn kick(expansion/variety). and like i said they could be good but i doubt it she seems like she would be a good character to lead with instead.
