on a side note - hopefully there will be a somewhat official side tournament? last year couldn t find anything going, just heard of some random dudes playing in some random hotel.
Japan is the Mecca of 3rd strike. if you can afford it it’s better to go there. if you’re a fan of 3rd you have to go at least once. you could always party in japan too, alcohol is sold 24/7 just like Vegas?
realistically I probably won’t go to an evo because I don’t live driving distance and id rather use that money for japan. Not saying I’ll never go to evo but it’s less likely right now.
yeah that’s true. I’ve met cool people on GGPO and people worth playing for sure. just a shame to have to wade through the rest of the stuff that comes along with it.
we need to play soon! I’m hungry for revenge. I’m going to try not planting my face into your pokes this next time around.
yeah definitely. when I was describing my experience with GGPO and several people didn’t really experience the same thing, I figured it was probably a Windows 7 thing. ChaiTea was saying Windows 8 feels awful too and it sounds like you are having the same experience. maybe dual booting with Windows XP might work? I’ve been thinking of giving that a try.
that’s the nice thing about OE, everyone’s setup is identical. where on GGPO one of you might be on XP and one of you on Windows 8, or the other is locking his refresh to his monitor and you aren’t. seems like there’s a lot of stuff that can potentially go wrong.
I think in ideal circumstances GGPO is clearly better than OE. Funland and I went from pretty close to unplayable on OE to definitely playable on GGPO, and we’re both on 0 frame delay, one of us in Alaska and one of us in eastern Canada. that’s a pretty good testament to GGPO when it is working smoothly.
It was EVO first for me. Had never been to a big event like that or visited Vegas and it was more affordable than Japan to the point of actually being possible. Met a bunch of cool 3s heads and made some connections. Good trip, well worth the investment.
Would have been Japan first though if I had three times the money.
oh oh oh also I challenge pherai to akuma mirrors
EDIT: AND IN THE SPIRIT OF BEING MEAN SPIRITED I CHALLENGE YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE A BIG DUMMY… ROFL BRB LEARNING SA2 FOR TRUE GOU SHORYU MADNESS LOL…
Hey new guy. Go find out more about condor dive sucks and Q is dope.
That Kuroda stuff didn’t stick, and you probably didn’t buy niconico premium and figure out how to watch a few days later now, but that’s okay you can watch whatever gets uploaded to youtube for us gaijin when we can’t understand half of it anyway, not just talking about the language barrier.
In this example you stepped into, again without knowing about the game:
ryan = Kuroda (for all intents and purposes)
PIKACHUAKUMA = DSP, using THawk, in SF4, online
Spoiler
Which means he needs input lag console version to beat/be ranked higher than OhNuki @ the EVOs but I don’t think you’ve gone that far into this rabbit hole
Also, count the # of tatsus to determine if its "shoto spam"
Also, demon flips like that other guy said so we can turn it into the Guiness Beer of world records like Diego got those plaques. He leaves them in an empty box of Tecate and shit
BTW that was already posted (we didn’t care the first time) but nobody posted Kuroda was watching Ryan’s match and went from 4000 WPM to 0 words and Pierrot had to handle saying anything about the match on screen.
not even a sosososo, daisukedo. Kuroda trollin. He’s the master of that too.
Something about gootecks then… there was this guy on cutthroat kitchen who looked like gootecks. Complete with red slacks. Remy style.
“Place your bets” require a bet placement. Its on the board now you can’t take it off or move it around.
Ask me anymore questions for clarification. As I was gambling with not 1 but 2 japanese women last year at EVO. They were betting pretty weird! Stacks of money though.
Yeah, so, you know. “Put your Money where your mouth is.”
& don’t sit there and eat your money behind the computer screen.
Don’t respond to that Mitchio_Kakku guy. He is too afraid to post on his real account and made a shitty “troll” account for stupid ass comments. I guess he found his way to the 3S forums…
