CT Thread | June 12 @ Gaming ETC

Yeah it doesn’t come with every thing you need it only comes with the dazzle itself and the installation disk your gonna need to buy three splitters if you want to play on your tv while recording which you can buy at radioshack for $4’s each and your gonna need a composite cable to hook up to your tv also I’m not sure if that dazzle records in HD I’d look it up on youtube or something if I was you

this is the splitters you need:

Good games last night Craig, Walter, Nuno, Dru.

Walter, sorry we couldn’t get up till late. I started at 8, by the time you came on I already owed peeps some games.

Also, this thread title is really really wack.

the only trolling was related to DJ, fuckin title makes it sound like CT trolls more than it fucking plays.

Im old! 10 is way to late for me on a school night.

Justin, You gonna be around tonight? Sucks we didnt get to play.

Def good games dood. Thanks for the beatings. Haggar is higher tier than me lol. You gave me a lot of ideas with how you used assists. This is my first vs. game so I learned a lot. good stuff.

Thread title should be “CT: Land of the free, home of the… yeah, not much else.”

Oh, so it wasn’t…

?

Good to know you agree.

And yes, you all troll more than you guys play. I’ve been fully flexible in making trips during the week to play casuals with ANYONE but have yet to hear from peoples availability.

I’ve contacted Raion, Frank, Manny, Rich, (loved his place. good times.) PJ, (played him and want to keep doing so) Tetsuo, (maybe if he stopped being so pre judgmental and actually met/spoke to me in person where it MATTERS he might learn a thing or two about me? hmm.) you/bobbypigo, magno, walrus, (both magno and him have shown interest in playing. Really want to get something going there.) and pretty much anyone I can think of within CT. I used to play with Brian in New London, Ryan in Danbury, and my friend Scott/Scosu in Wallingford.

None of you show any form of interest to play this game other then online.

Oh, and please don’t give me crap saying that I need to become more involved and go to tournaments because i’ve gone to the last 2 out of 3 PF’s and have tried to establish contacts/meet new people to play. I’m always down to travel to YOU and get involved. Not much more I can really do/say to make it clear that I want to play SSF4 AND MVC3. I like these games. I’m not probably going to play MVC3 seriously but I definitely enjoy a new game because SSF4 is boring.

Thanks.

Carry On

Don’t start. I was completely willing to play with you. Offered you to come over MY place and play two times. First time you said you were busy. Then when you wanted to play you wanted me to come over. I accepted, but I needed a ride to your house, which you offered, but one would think that if a person needs a ride somewhere they would need a ride back right? Guess not by your logic, because you told me that I’d have to find a way back to my place, which was impossible. So yeah don’t even go there.

Maybe we should just ban DJ, because he has already started with the trolling.

On another note: Since CTF is closing I think that CT should plan to make another appearance before it actually closes(or relocates).

I remember once, you asked I think Raion to come pick you up, play at his house, and then drop you off. Thats a little silly, no? But dude you are the best example of theory fighter. You talk more about the game than you play it.

does anyone else think the sets in mvc3 should be bo5?

This is your first? Your in good shape than man, keep it up!
I second this thread title.

Yes DJ, I edited my post to fairly describe what was happening here.

Rob, ill be online tonight yes. Just let me know what time.

Theres a difference between making an effort and traveling and needing to carry both ends and cover you HERE and BACK. No offense, but I think its a fairly legitimate claim to not want to travel back and forth. No? The point of meeting and playing is the desire for both people to be interested. I’m not going to sit here and argue with you who said what and who contacted who etc. I’m not five.

I’m not trolling. Clearly you don’t know what trolling is.

You know, if you try to play with everyone and no one wants to play with you.

When do you realize it’s you and not us?

So this is the New New Ct Thread??
Cool I guess.
Just a reminder. The Waterbury Tourny will be on Sunday March 6 it will start at 3pm. But I will be there setting up at 1230pm. So u guys can come early to chill. Games is MVC3 there maybe a SSF4 Tourny after the mvc3. $5.00 venue $10.00 per game. 23 Framingham dr Waterbury Ct 06705. My studio is next to the porn shop in the lower level. Bring your STICKS!!! The Tourny will be on both 360 and PS3 and on lagless monitors. Any querying or concerns about getting whailed on call me 2035259612.

You act like project failure is the only tournament in the area. Also I like how not playing you offline = troll.

Hey buddy,

What are the chances that this tourney will start on time?

Yeah, I do. Totally. (Sarcasm) I’ve gone to a Bridgeport event that was posted in here a few months back, two tournaments (PF) a casual event at Rich’s house, gone to the realysts a few times, and played with pj. I want to be more active in this community. If I can sqeeze out of work I also plan to go on the 6th to Escos event because hes a cool dude.

No; making generalizations, assumptions, and not talking to me in the flesh leads to mindless trolling. Also, not being able to debate the meta game of MVC3 rationally and just dismiss opinions is hilarious. What makes you think any of you are god like at understanding MVC3? You’re not. Nor am I. The game just came out…that’s why a big part of the fun with a new released game is to discuss it before people settle on “Guile is the best.” or “Yup, Mileena is top tier” and there is nothing left to talk about. Ya see where im going with this?

The problem with the internet is that its so bandwagon. Everyone says something and goes along with it. Presenting different ideas suggests that you’re an outcast or that you’re a “Scrub” and really, its quite pathetic. Very high schoolish.

And seriously, I’m not even trying to be rude or anything. I just want to play this game, move on about my earlier shit that i said, (that i admit I come off as a tool sometimes, I admit that.) and see what the CT scene has to offer.

Not hard.

Internet Protips (trying to be constructive here):

When people are posting up saying that you’re really annoying, you shouldn’t respond to every single post by making extremely long counter-posts trying to defend yourself. Just chill out and only make pertinent posts on the subject at hand - you’ll find the flaming will eventually go away.

You also shouldn’t assume that just because you CAN write 10-paragraph criticisms of a brand new fighting game, that you SHOULD. This is the internet, and nobody can stop you from voicing your opinion…but don’t be surprised if nobody cares, and if you get flamed for it afterwards, especially if nobody knows (or cares) who you even are.

This is advice from my own personal experience, use it wisely.

Ok, I like just about everyone I’ve met within CT, I don’t really ever post here (mostly because it’s 95% nonsense) but with the start of a new thread I’m hoping that can change.

Don’t jump I’m going to tell you this once just read it and take it in, don’t respond or rant or justify because I’m not going to respond. First and foremost you need to stop with the half page long theory fighting, it’s annoying nobody on this thread likes seeing it, you generalize about game systems and try and pass it off as recognized fact you spout your nonsense opinions about what character is great and what character is terrible based on your incredibly limited understanding and you honestly do make it sound like when anyone disagrees with you that you can’t possibly understand why. You really want to talk about how SSF4 is all about holding down back or x-factor is only useful if you wait until your last character go do it in the beginner threads or on the super or marvel boards, you want to talk about how Wesker has absolutely no options without assists, take it to the Wesker board those boards are there for a reason and other, better players will show you why your opinion makes sense or is completely wrong. The CT thread however is not the place for that, so please recognize this and just stop.

Two, stop making every other post about how online sucks and CT needs to have meetups outside of tournaments for casuals. We get it and for once I don’t think anybody will disagree with you online is not as good as playing with people in person. However as part of the new generation of fighters you don’t even count yourself or seem to know how lucky you are that you even have that option. Most of CT is southern and back before Super came out when it was 3S, CvS2, ST someone like me who lived up in Northern CT had practically almost no options to get games in with people outside of driving over an hour, so yes online isn’t as good but it isn’t the worst thing in the world and is an option you should be taking advantage of. Most of CT is older (I think you’ve mentioned you’re just a college kid) most have full time jobs on top of part time jobs, some have families, some don’t have vehicles and the list honestly goes on and on about why a lot of people can’t have regular gatherings.

You mentioned how people need to meet you in person and judge you there where it actually matters, so understand this, posting online in THIS thread does matter. You’re not anonymous here dude everything you say on here is a reflection of you because people associate your words with you, not just some internet guy, someone mentioned how maybe your posts here are a reason why when gatherings do happen you don’t get invited, I think you seriously need to think about that statement. Someone also pointed out that PF is not the only tournament in CT and they are right, my tournament in Middletown is every month and I think every single time you have said you were coming only to be a no show.

So relax dude, keep your opinions on the boards where they can be heard and responded too, stop complaining about online and jump in and get some games in with people and actually have a good time doing it (I laugh almost non stop whenever I am in a party with CT) and become a member of the community people actually want to have around. You want to make a post a week about offline gatherings no one is going to fault you for that, but the nonstop complaining about them needs to come to an end. I hope you actually take all this in and I didn’t waste ten minutes typing it out because if you don’t you are going to get yourself banned and probably shunned from the community and that’s not good for anybody.

As for the rest of CT sorry for the crazy long post, you know I like you guys and I hope to be around here a bit more often!

Oh and Phil I don’t know if you’ll see this before you go shopping but look into backpacker’s bags that people use when they go on long trips. Those things are super roomy and easy to carry I still use mine as a general luggage container whenever I go on trips, just might work out for you.

ya, first one. I played 3S and SF4… literally NEVER a Vs. game before this. Thanks dude, im trying. Im still working on understanding exactly what my objectives are at certain points in matches, but im starting to get it more and more. Execution is still a bit of a barrier for me, i have trouble locating the buttons (and reaching them) that are required to do certain things in this game. I play pretty much every weeknight, so invite at will. Im maining this game now.

^ this.

And if you just cant help yourself ?? make a youtube channel about it and troll the earth and FGC at the same time… right phil? :nunchuck::cool:

Would like some CT opinions.

Hey all.

I’m going to go ahead and try to change the subject here. The topic isn’t necessarily less dismal than trolling (IMPO), but I’m hoping you’re all as interested and curious as I am.

Have a look at the following link: No Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition in the Home (andriasang.com, 02.24.2011)

Most of you have probably read this by now, as it’s an SRK Home Page Headliner at present.

Overall Premise: Ono says that SSFIV: AE was purposefully unbalanced (I don’t care about this part) and he announced that there are no plans to release the Arcade Edition changes to consoles.

Personally, g0dhand = :crybaby: over this. Granted, my opinion is biased, as my main (Gouken) was to recieve a bunch of buffs that would have helped to improve his rushdown, footsies, and inside game. But I’ve also been to Chinatown fair about three times already to play the game with a bunch of you on here (Tommy, Andersen, JoeyMiggs, Manny, Kryonik, Essex, etc…) and I feel like we all as a whole enjoyed the game and it’s changes + new characters for the most part.

How does everyone else who’ve been keeping up with the change-lists, especially those who’ve actually played AE? If you haven’t read or heard anything about it, skim the link for shits and giggles and let me know how you feel.

:china:

I think Ono is just trolling (the man himself has admitted it’s part of his job to do and has misled people before in his quest to do so). So all I can say is if we don’t get AE to consoles in some form at some time I will be more shocked than I have perhaps ever been in my life.
