ICH, Ni, SAN…
wow…that footage made me feel strange emotions.
thank you eoneo and your leader, danomighty.
back the hell up, in part 3 of that video there is a fuerte vs fuerte fight that starts at 13:00
they both do some kind of animation where fuerte faces the screen at 13:04 and spread their arms out. what is that? im pretty sure thats not his taunt, his taunt is him crossing his arms and spinning in a little circle in some kind of dance. so what is this?
at 14:00 testu (black fuerte does it while facing his opponent and then does the guacamole legs out of it.
is that some kind of alternate taunt? how do you do it?
Alternate taunt?! MUST LURN?!?! Oh wassup nothing man!! I heard many great things about ur EF just wanted to say I worship u!
Edit: Sorry I spelled ur name wrong n0thingman!
Ninja Edit: from what I could tell it seems like another taunt cuz it doesnt seem to build metter or anything. And I have no idea how to do it yet =(. Im gonna head out to FFA tomorrow morning during happy hour to see if I can figure out how to do that taunt or move. Ill keep u guys posted!
could be character-specific taunt… OR… it might be his neutral animation. shrug
Hmm…If it is a charcter specific taunt wonder how you would do it? Then would that also mean each charcter has there own spcific taunt and just not the hp+hk taunt?
I think I read somewhere that the card system lets you choose extra colors, a specific win quote and alternate taunts.
Ahhh Good lookin out man. Did it ever specify if the US was getting the card system? or is that like Japan only stuff??
Edit: watching that Part 7 vid with tetsu is like…damn hes insane!! But when I watch him do the fierce run fierce combo it seems like he jumped off the wall hp+ run but then it looks like hes doing the lk where he does a turn around for a sec and continues. I think its just me tired looking at it but…it seems like he does a little spin when he stops or is he just hp+run+lp to stop its kinda bothering me now. Last note for the night…Tetsu is god.
i was watching bebop play claw and he did a taunt i had never seen, vega kind of got in a growling hunched over pose. but he also has a taunt where he throws off his claw, so maybe bebop nows how to do alternate taunts, i’ll have to ask him
Hey SDCT, nice to meet another fuerte player, hope to see you at the 3v3 this weekend!
the claw throw is actually part of vega’s moveset (F,D,DF+P)
Oh really? hmm yeah if u get a chance do ask bebop maybe he knows how to do it for EF too which would be cool. Yeah its nice to meet you too n0thingman heard lots about you and ill try my best to make it up this sunday!
L Buerte!
I haven’t been able to play SF4 in months, but if someone wants to give me a better first post I will replace it.
can someone try this combo? fierce run fierce run stop then the move where you hold down the kick button and release. or how about fierce run fierce run, running sobat, super?
HP, run, stop, HP xx Chest Press (hold K move) works.
HP, run, stop, HP, run MK xx Super works.
These are decent alternatives if you can’t keep doing the loop, but the loop does crazy damage, crazy dizzy, and builds you crazy meter.
So is El Futre looking better or worse than initially thought? I’m kinda hoping he’ll be good, since he’s one of the few characters I actually like the look of so far.
He’s definitely looking better. I think he’s probably mid tier already, even before anyone here has mastered the loop, and once the Fuerte players start getting that down he’s gonna move up even higher. You can already see guys in Japan who’ve had time to master it have made him a really scary, tournament-winning character. Initial projections of him being bottom tier are way off.
I hope the same initial projection happens with Vega too ._.
I definitely think it is, although not to the same extent, both because nobody thinks Claw is as bottom tier as most people initially thought Fuerte was and because his ceiling probably isn’t as high as Fuerte’s is. The thing is, the tiers in this game pretty much range from high-mid tier to low-mid tier, nobody’s dominant and nobody sucks, so while I’m not sure that Claw will get out of low tier, he can be low tier and still be a very viable tournament character. Although that said, I think he’s better than like, Abel and Guile, at least.
Hey speaking of Abel, when this game was released (somewhat…) wasn’t there this big hype about Abel going to be god tier or something? What happened with that, I’ve only seen like 1 or 2 Abel players at my arcade lol.
