Dude :o I’d be wary of bringing the limited edition stick. Then again, my TE’s been signed by Ono, Daigo, Valle, Watts, and Choi, but I’m still going to be lugging it around to all the tourneys and places I play SFIV at o_o. Then again, I sprayed like 5 coats of clear coat on it, so it should be fine…
Ubyte, you might be hard pressed to find people who are willing to play on 360 (given the number of people that have PS3 sticks). Go ahead and bring it, but I really don’t think we’ll be using it. LEARN THE (arcade) STICKS MAN o_o
Hey gentlemen, check out the Sacramento thread for news on another future Sacramento tournament coming your way. Feedback is highly appreciated and helps get the ball rolling faster :tup:
Sou da sou da… only thing I’m wary about is having a 360 setup and no 360 sticks. If we could have 3 setups (2 PS3, 1 360), things would go real fast… but spectating may not be so easy. However, usually the main event is the finals anyway, right? I’m still working on getting that DVI to HDMI converter (I’ve ordered it). If we can get it tested and working with no lag, perhaps we could do a PS3 on the flatscreen, a PS3+TV on the table, and a 360+TV on the table.
Ubyte, WhiteShadow, if you know people that have sticks and are willing to loan em out to players, let me know. WhiteShadow, you have two, right? Are you willing to let them be used for the tournament? Let me know so we can explore these options.
I’m actually buying one today, I might not use it but there will be at least one and I think another guy I played with last night…(thats what she said) is bringing his
When I come on August 1st, I will bring a 360 stick in the event that there is space or a console there; however, I would appreciate being able to use someone’s TE or Hori EX Pro (crosses fingers for sanwa or semitsu).
Hey guess what Romeo!?! I got a new stick!. I’ve been practicing for a while, and guess what else!! I HATE it!! Doing a hadoken is like using the 360 dpad! And don’t get me started on the frickin super! I spent $163 on a new handicap! It’s about as smooth as a butter knife through a solid block of ice. Thanx but no thanx, strictly pad for me. At least the box looks cool
i just got a 2nd te for 125, and to the guy above me,it will take at least a month of training b4 u will b decent seeing how u never ben on stiks, bt i hav a homi that plays on ps3 pad and kiks my ass,so watever floats ur boat
Do what you’ve gotta do to win, but it takes time to adjust to a stick. It goes against your natural reactions, instincts, and muscle memory. It takes time to re-tool yourself. Trust me.
Have you tried switching out the square gate to the octo gate?
Makes a big difference man, costs less than $10 for the octo gaye with shipping, and
is very easy to do yourself.
Good luck.
i’ll bring my 360 TE. i have no problems with people using it. only issue is i will only be able to attend 1 more of these. i’m moving out of sac at the end of the month. not leaving norcal though, but too far to travel to these.
anyways i’ll be there today
edit: ubyte stick with the stick… it takes a while to relearn how to play with it but once you do it offers a great deal more control over your character, dashing in particular is far easier on a stick.
DeeJay won’t be showing up today, so we only have one setup confirmed confirmed confirmed. Can anyone else bring a setup? Heh ubyte, looks like we may use your 360. Can anyone bring a TV? If you can bring ANYTHING (console, TV), please post so here. I’ll be checking here periodically until I leave for the city. Thanks in advance.
Dam man I was real dissapointed n my ken my links just wuldnt come out.then I went home n they wurkd fine.should I b playn on a small old nstead on 42 inch lcd hdmi? I wana compeet wit yall but my tv runs sf4 at a diffrent speed. Sumone plz help
Im was disappointed in myself today. I was basically “free” for Korea and PieGuy. I still need to get used to the tournament environment, being around people while I play and having noise in the background. I think the only way for me to get better is to play player vs player matches instead of online matches. If anyone wants to play some offline matches send me a PM or hit me up on XBL or PSN. I wont be at the one next week but I will be there the following week.
