!Constructive Criticism Thread!

Why don’t you describe your game as it is now, then we can help out on it. And “cute” is pretty vague. What do you look for in a girl?

How do I play Cable like Row? Watching that rushdown cable was insane…:looney:

To answer your question Deezo: Just look at Mickey D’s signature

Hey man… we’re talking about “Game” and I feel this counts too! XD

I second on this advice. So far Seattle women suuuuuuuuck.

Understandable.

Oh yeah and I figure I’ll post this here since people gave me criticism about it. I think I’m making a lot of progress in not getting angry. I got kinda mad at GW today, but it wasn’t like the other times, so I’m happy about that…

Reaching the promised land, one baby step at a time.

Soul. Brotha!

I’m sorry to disappoint you but I got hella mad today. All that progress down the drain, that fast. I think I give up, too hard to not get mad. That’s what I been doin since I can remember.

There was a point, where I lost a bunch of games in a row I probably should’ve won. I ended up punching the stick in typical ANGRY_BLK_MAN fashion, however this time around, there were repercussions. The pinky finger on my left hand went numb, with the rest of my left hand hurting, along with the fact that I like re-aggravated my right fist pains from when I socked a stick over 3 weeks ago.

To anybody random that wants to poke fun or anything, listen, I don’t wanna read any smart ass remarks about “heh heh heh it’s just a game Mandel! don’t get maaaaaad!” Cause I may get tempted to try your face next time instead of the stick. Doesn’t sound fun huh?

=]

I’m just a black man!

That’s how I broke my $100 acrylic case :sad: Marvel does that a lot…

Hahahaha, I know ho you feel Mandel. Reminds me of a match I had with Zach once and I should’ve c.hp,xx,HSF at the end to chip him to death and I dash orb super to be different, he push blocks with like a pixel or two of life left and then uses the tron lunch rush super to kill me… it was like random Tekken Justice in MvC2 and I just sat there thinking “damn, I’m hella dumb… that was gross” hahaha… I hate when I suck.

Hahaha… best way ever to break up with a girl?
"I’m sorry, but I’m gonna stop playing with you–your controls are broken so I can never win… it’s just not fun anymore!"
hahahaha… you guys should keep that one ready at hand in the future–nothing like getting some humor out of a sad situation. =D

i get pretty mad when i lose games that i should never lose. but since i’m very beatable, i rarely get angry :razz:

“Listen…your buttons don’t work.”

Hahahah.

I think it’s all in the way you look at it. Since I’m so competitive it’s hard for me to shrug off losses if I feel that I’m not improving. I think I’m slowly learning, and that I’ve been that way for a few years now. I used to make tremendous leaps in improvement, but I think it’s because Marvel’s easy to get into, but hard to master. After all, I think my Sentinel loses every Sentinel vs Sentinel fight and every Sentinel vs Storm fight. I swear man…

Who do you play with dann? Hopefully one of these days you’ll be able to make it out to Zach’s. If for anything, just to be able to throw down in some Marvel for a few hours. Automatic improvement…if you’re not me.

I have a hard time not getting frustrated too. Because of the parrying in 3s, people usually random parry on wakeup and my game gets stuffed. Plus my execution is hella shitty, so matches that would be in the bag for any other player, go out the damn window when I whiff my combo.

Especially when I do better playing the basic scub random shitass Ken then I do makoto, who is essentially my main character.

Most people that play me know my game well enough that I don’t get a lot of oppurtunities to do damage. Usually makoto only needs one grab and it’s fucking match, but since my execution is raw poo I really don’t present much of a threat.

I don’t make excuses for losing, I’ve always looked at it as “I lost, the stick or any other mitigating circumstances is irrelevant”, and that helps me not be a bitch.

Still when I put time and effort into getting better and see no visible results it’s pretty demoralizing. It’s hard to feel drive when I’m like “well last week was the same as this week, so clearly I’ve made no progress despite practicing”.

usually i just play people at uw, and they’re way too good for me. i’m pretty much the meat bag of the hub arcade, but since the sticks/buttons have been broken, no one has been going. sadly, i like the joysticks in the hub better (when they’re not broken), because i find the p360s at gameworks too stiff.

i still would like to go out to zach’s sometime… i just have no idea how to get there.

about 3 months ago i used to be one of the biggest scrubs playing marvel. i think i used mag (without tri jump)/sent (without flying)/collosus. the only thing different now is that i use cable haha.

I’m the same way. Once I get into the game, I get super competitive and get PISSED when I lose a game I could have in some way won. I have yet to get enough experience in to really play at a high level (I’ve only been playing for about 6 months, 3 of those on a DC pad), so I’m not quite ready to blow up over a loss. In 3s, on the other hand… :annoy: That’s why my stick looks like a Benz left overnight with the doors unlocked in a backalley in Compton.

Making it out to Zach’s to play improved my game a LOT. Going from maybe 3-5 hits on any other dude in the room to nearly taking out JMar’s Sent made my week :lovin:

This thread needs some attention. BUMP!

Well since this needs the attention.

Had a session yesterday!

My Santhrax game has improved. Starting to use MSP,

I’m starting to use Magneto (still working on that damn ROM) now finally… and the cable’s getting good. Should I try and pick up any more characters, or should I focus on my storm/mag/sent/cable for now? Six months into it, I’m still mid-level :sad:

Storm…Pimp her the fuck out!..

Or

Sentinel…One word, BEAST!

This thread died… :sad:
