"Get Ready...Survive!" The New Garou: Mark of the Wolves Thread

^I think you are right Dandy, I’ve created games before and had horrible lag.

In any event, is it just me, or has the amount of players online really dropped significantly the last few days. It might be time zone issues, but I can hardly find anyone to play of an afternoon.

So ummm I kinda made a tiny tiny tiny tiny tiny un-notice-able edit to Vol. 4, but I don’t know how to replace the old video with the new one.
I’ll delete the old Vol. 4 a few weeks later.

Dude I used to have the same problem and I found out that if you have the CPU in training dummy set to any form of guard (1 hit, all guard, etc) juggle combos dont work at all the dummy just drops. Turn any guarding off and its all good. Its pretty dumb at used to annoy the hell out of me.

Can someone tell me how to do Jenets Ennui Mademoiselle? What’s the timing on it… like do I input the commands right when I get a Just Defense? or right after? I don’t know!

I tried youtube and came up empty. And Searching the forums only led me to this post. (Don’t want to search 59pgs just to get the info :P)

For the week of June 22, Garou was the 2nd top selling XBLA game.

Good stuff!

Right when you see the Just Defend message, press A -> B -> C quickly. Done separately and without mashing, IIRC.

Played about 9 matches, no lag, I’m on eastern time too.

Hit me up on XBLA if you want to play tag: ruphfus

I’m new to MoTW but not to KoF and Fatal Fury games, just looking for some people to play against to hopefully finish off the achievements and have some nice matches.

Yeah I had some great matches last night. They were all under 100ms though. :lovin:

I’ve always wondered, why does Grant’s break miss sometimes? I can always get it to hit most of the time, but I remember somebody I played could never get it to hit. I’m wondering, what causes that? Is it pressing AB too early or something?

That and usually depending on what you are trying to dp agains’t. Like for instance if you use it during GCs it tends to whiff like that more often. Usually because the person you GCed agains’t did a move with more priority. So you’ll get those moments where Grant’s dp whiffs them but he still gets the break cancel. You have to remember that depending on what you are trying to dp the opponents hitbox might change depending on the move they are doing.

Oh I see, thanks.

Quick look at Part 2-

g’nite fellow Garou-ers.

I have only played this one online a tiny bit compared to the amount I’ve done with 98 but it seems like people only play 3 characters in this game. In every match I have only faced Terry, Jenet, and Rock and I’ve met one Tizoc.

Haven’t played this for a little while (since I have been playing KOF for a bit instead), but when I was playing online the variety of characters beign used was really good.

What’s up with being able to hit one button to do a huge combo… Why was such a macro included in the game? Can it be turned off for ranked?

I think someone said earlier in the thread that it’s not available online.

yeah I see now lol… I searched by typing macro :)… I guess I ASSumed that would get some sort of result…

It’s a shame the initial 360 online launch impressions were so bad, as going back to the game now and finding a game with a lowish (under 100) ping, my experiences have been quite good. It must be for some other too, as I fought a guy with already well over 1000 matches! There doesn’t seem to be too many people playing though… we need more people to come back and give it a second shot on 360.

It does seem a lot harder to find player matches than ranked. As somebody trying to learn the game it sort of bugs me that after each ranked game it displays your win/loss stats as mine are awful, but how else are you gonna learn the game but by losing and working to get better? It’s cool it keeps track of those stats, but it’s not cool that they get displayed. If I ever do play enough to get good enough to be considered decent, I can’t imagine how embarrassing that win/loss ratio would have to become.

The other unfortunate thing - for some reason everybody seems to be playing Terry. I’m not seeing any variety at all (so far).

The online is still horrible compared to GGPO. I would be great if they did some patch to it to fix the delay issues. I guess you can only expect so much from SNK live games these days.
