Columbia, MO 2008: We Post More Than We Play

Not Dead

I bought a house, in the process of fixing it up. Work makes me :looney: I hate adult life.

So.

Going to Vegas for a few days for a work conference, then flying to Japan for a week to visit some friends. Anyone want any vendor panties when I come back?

On the fo’ realz though, any suggestions on shit I have to hit in Tokyo to help redeem my nerd cred? Once the place is fixed, I plan on hosting.

None of this changes the fact that I hate you all.

I’m playing SC4 on PS3 and so far I haven’t had much lag at all. I was playing with Aaron for about an hour or so the other night; the only problem was that my 'net connection was cutting out at times.

Anybody want to play SC4 lemme know what’s good; my PSN ID is my username here.

Shohaib - give me a call if u want to play today. Paul are u in town this weekend?

I have to pick something up from St. Louis first. I’ll give you a call when I get back.

Yeah I’m around; gimme a call or something

Shit, I’m sorry Paul, this is the first time I’ve checked the thread since Sat. I would’ve liked to see your DJ against Shekeib’s Ryu.

We definitly need to get more games in before Shohaib leaves and everyone’s classes start.

I will be on GGPO today till 10pm if anyone wants some games in ST or 3S.

Man it blows not having a PS3, but that shit is too pricey and I don’t have an HDTV anyway let alone blue ray quality shit. If you want to get together Friday or Saturday let me know. I wouldn’t mind checking out SCIV first hand and seeing if it worth the hype. Just send me a pm.

Salamande, Solarin - I’m going to be around for a week or two as well. I’ve wanted to see what changes Xianghua has had. Let me know if you guys want to get together some time.

PS3 matching making was not good at all… it keeps saying “Game Session is Full”. Usually takes me 3-5 mins to find a room that’s playable.

The lag is no worse than DR but definitely noticeable. I cannot block Soph’s 1AA to save my life. Some scrub was spamming that so it was very obvious what he was going to do next but I still cannot block it on reaction due to the lag.

The game itself is pretty good though, So far they have found 1 inf. with Ivy but probablly will be fixed in the next patch.

Unfortunately, I’ll be out of town this weekend, but I’d definitely be up for it in the future.

I really, really wish people would play anyone other than Mitsu online. Swear to God, my first ten fights last night were all Mitsu. Then I fought a (surprisingly good) Tira, then 5 more Mitsus again, then a few Kiliks before I got sick of playing.

soul calibur 4 is still a piece of shit online. raphael and amy spammers are abundant. and the mitsurugi players love to spam that sweep and and back,K B. the block is a piece of shit since the command wont come out and i get owned by fast kick combos. even though i got my ass kicked, i had fun with a yoshimitsu player, im not pissed it just motivates me to practice more and time the kamikaze tackles better and come out with solid combos.
from what ive seen, online kilik players are so scrubby. i love to laugh at maxi and star wars players. have u fought players with cat costumes yet?
siegfried fighters are real cocky too on voice chat, their shit is so basic.
tekken online is way better than soul calibur 4 online… in every way,
matchmaking, lobbying, fighting system in general. with shit like this id rather play virtua fighter offline and eat my shorts.
namco, ill only forgive u if u can provide a custom soundtrack path just like what pain did…

You can Just Ukemi Mitsu’s 2KB, which is hard to do online due to the lag but I played someone who was able to do it about 1/3 of the time.

I have only played 1 other Mitsu online, maybe people just don’t want to play mirror match, I dunno.

So apparently SFIV is out but none of the arcades a train-ride away have it. I guess I’ll get to try it when I’m in the Kyoto area.

What’s good Andrew, how’s life treating you over there man? If you get any inside infor on BB hit us up with that too, the game looks better everytime I see it.

Reminder I’ll be in STL 3 weeks from now, get hype for some GAMES!

Hey Pat I thought you quit video games lol. Are you free tonight at some point? We could get some games and/or drinks in.

Btw, in your opinion who is more balanced or just flat out better: Nightmare or Siegfried?

My alternate Astaroth.

Even when there’s no voice on the other end, I love watching the other player pause for a few seconds in the Character Select screen when I choose my character. Hopefully they’re having a laugh, although I’ve actually been loudly cursed out for using this guy. It’s kinda nuts.

haha good shit. my yoshi looks like an angry shogun.

Naw I didn’t quit man, I am actually going to PAX this year to meet more nerds haha.

Siegfried is pretty good in SC4, Nightmare is kinda crappy IMO, kinda not safe and don’t do enough damage to make up for it.

I am free now, sorry I didn’t check forum earlier today, give me a call whenever, I am pretty much free every weeknight after 5.

Good stuff I’ll give you a call tomorrow (I think I have your number…) to make sure you aren’t busy. I’m thinking of 6ish pm if that is cool.
