Gainesville Thread: Help yourself to the fridge, but don't touch my beer

The patch server for PS3 is up even though PSN is down. Chances are, PS3 users will have CS2 but won’t be able to buy Platnium, which is disappointing, but eh. I’m probably going to be learning new Lambda/Jin stuff anyway.

Personally, I think that BB will be harder for those who can’t get long combos down easily only because magic series aren’t as useful, so you’re either stuck learning a pretty long combo or trying to punish someone 6-8 times in one match. I think MVC3 is harder to play well because you have to approach it a lot differently. At least for me, a lot of the time in MVC3, you have to change your mindset on when you can and can’t do things. BB may have long combos, but you still have typical stuff like DPs and anti-airs, and it’s really not that different once you learn a combo or two.

tl;dr BB is harder to get into for those who aren’t used to long combos. MVC3 is harder to play well because of Sentinel and Akuma assist.

Also, if anyone has a floor or a chair I can sleep on for CEO, I’d be grateful.

Me and two friends are crashing at my brother’s apartment all weekend, its all you guys.

Hey Jon I don’t know if you regularly check the florida thread on homingcancel but the guys there just recently posted the information for their second ranbat. It’s on May 29th. Here’s the link:
May 29th- Hozartis Ranbats #2, Orlando FL.

The drive there is about 2 hours. Let me know if you would be able to go to that.

anything going on today?

Nothing today. I’m thinking possibly a random night this week or maybe this weekend. I’m busy thursday and friday nights.

What’s everyone else got going on?

I’ve got nothing else going on…like always.

Hey guys what’s up. I’m new to the fighting game scene and I’m a real big fan of MvC3. I’m a uf student and i’m here for the summer. If you guys want to have some matches contact me on facebook if you guys have any. My name is Phillip Prophete. Or if not we could text or call or something. I also want to go to the tourney down in orlando in june and don’t know anyone else going and i was reading this thread and idk if whoever is going could work stuff out with me if anyone is looking for an extra person. That is after you guys get to know me of course lol. Might be alittle random w/ someone u don’t know. Well if anything message me on fb or something. I’m always down to play some MvC3 :slight_smile:

and i have nothing going on most days

Welcome to the thread dude. My name’s Matt. We usually have gatherings every week so we’ll post the time and day here. Most of us are going to CEO, but I think the rooms we are getting are pretty much full :sweat: But yeah, welcome again and hopefully we see you at one of the gatherings. It’s always good to have some new blood around here.

thanks alot man. So I guess just check this thread for new updates on gatherings and such. And ok well i haven’t payed yet and i’m not planning on until probably the end of may. SO if you or anyone else knows anyone that needs an extra person or is going or whatever tell the to let me know or vice versa. And thanks for the friendly response. Looking forward to meeting all of you guys :slight_smile:

I check it every couple of days. As for that, I’m not sure if I have anything going on that day, so for now I think I’m going, if only to get wrecked. :rofl:

Aside from summer classes, nothing until, I think, Sunday.

Lol don’t worry…I have a secret weapon against Eko that I’ll show you when we meet up :tup:

Is it putting down the controller and saying good game?

Lol that’s a good idea but not quite. It involves spamming the FUCK out of a certain arcana.

I like the sound of that, just wish I was actually there so I could learn it. :frowning:

so do you guys play MK at all? Also, are you guys going to the Ocala tournament this week?

We’ve only played it once as a group but I actively practice it, still trying to figure out the character I wanna play. And there’s like 3 or 4 of us going to the ocala tournament. Are you going, because I’ll bring MK9 if you want to get some games in.

EDIT: Also about the CS2 patch, it’s out right now on the 360 marketplace now. Then after picking up Brink today I’ll download Platinum. Time to actually put some time into this game.

rob how much would it be to split the apartment.

ive been practicing reptile a little bit at a friends house. i got his combos down but i dont really know how to play still.

By apartment you mean hotel room, right?

So Platinum = Eko of BB?
