Guiles of PSN

Littleyes (RY) vs. syngin (GU) = http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3495/4036965042_f23d3541ba_o.jpg

Edit: I only had one best of five match against this clown.

lol!!!

i chuckled. :rofl:

ggs monsterer i wish we could have played on a better connection because it was extremely frustrating trying to play a mirror match against a turtle guile on a one bar connection lol. that’s why i had to switch to akuma (and failed miserably).

anyways after our 5-4 thriller, i narrowly lost out to your friend 4-5. i think all of his wins came as ryu…but he left after i beat his ryu clean in the last game lol. our connection was better than the one i had against you, but still not that great. so in the end i went 10-10 with the two of you hehe.:rofl:

wikum & aeroplane

yeah, they were close games, all I had to do vs you was turtle 100% to maximize a win on a round, but I was affraid of you telling me how turtle I am, because the game turns ugly. On guile mirrors I rarely attack , I just play the boom game and normals, work the clock. I will get out of my shell once I can finish my links consistently.

Vs Aeroplane, I did play more solid because I felt the need. Aminx(RYU) and I believe he is more aggressive and dangerous. I dont know how you guys do among yourselves. The only round I felt you did really good was when you started the wake up grabs. My little advice is “You really need to grab more”. Be DIRTY. Both of you are very nice when you do safe jump ins, you finish with c.lp,c.mp,sb(never mix throw or another cross-up). From my first impression, you deal badly with cross-ups, this is exactly what my friend told me, he eats them clean.

"LINKs"
I wish I could link like you guys, hopefully I’ll be able to do it soon.

I believe our guiles are pretty even, but different. Aero is dangerous up front and combos very nice, You have a little bit of everything (links, defense, etc), I am a turtle and use normals (play dirty).

I hope you take all of this as constructive criticism. I talked to Aero and he did a lot better after I explained why I was having such success on his guile. He was losing worse than you and ended up 50-50.

Sorry about the connection, living in Mexico and having 1-2 bars is average , 3-4 bars is GOLD. I am already used to 2 bar games but I am sure you are not.

hey dude, GGs. What’s your take on my play-style?

hmmm, from what I remmember, you use c.rh many times. that is not good at all unless it is not expected or focus cancel it like **Aeroplane_ **does it, . Lets play again and I will give you a brief summary on my impressions, we have totally different time zones, I recall you are from England, right?

I am no expert, but would love to have mine critiziced as well, so I can become one soon.

lol don’t worry about it. you are right, i am not used to playing someone on a one bar connection. if it wasn’t you i wouldn’t have played at all.

basically the only reason i played THAT OFFENSIVE was because it was a one bar connection and you weren’t going to come out of your shell. i could have sat there and played turtle too but it would have made for a boring match. on a one bar connection if both of us are playing that boring it would just be horrible and you know it would lol. plus it was hard for my technique to be on point when it was one bar…i was missing booms ect. that’s not an excuse, but i think i would have been able to capitalise much more on your defensive strategy if the connection was better.

as for the grabs…do you think i wasn’t teching when you did three in a row? lol. as for mixups not ending in throw, it’s something i actually do a lot…and a mean A LOT. if i wasn’t doing it against you i don’t know why. i love ending a string of moves with sonic boom fadc throw.

so in summary i think it’s hard to judge our matches at all because not only was is a mirror match, but it was played on a one bar connection. i am not going to judge your guile whatsoever other than say it wasn’t bad, because it wouldn’t be fair to judge from the circumstances we were playing under. end of story.:rofl:

oh and i think that comment from your friend about eating crossups “clean” is funny, he obviously has a very short memory. the last match ended in crossup throw that got teched, then he tried crossup into fadc srk that i blocked into my st.hp for the win…so i don’t know what his point is. if he wants some constructive criticism tell him that he needs to work on his footsie game because i had his ryu beat on that one.

i know you think he’s much better than you ect…but i don’t think he is THAT much better. i don’t consider someone better than me if all they use is guile counters and leave after i win 3 in a row to bring it back to 5-4. if he is the best ryu that you know then honestly you need to play the NEXT LEVEL…the ones that beat you 10-1.

lol really? I don’t think I use sweep much; possibly mistaken identity. TBH, i can’t really recall our matches too, only that I remember it being a 1-bar connection and being thrown A LOT

let me guess…you couldn’t tech on a one bar connection either?:rofl: that’s what we get for playing someone in mexico when we live in london.

actually i should play you. add my psn.

I have not met a Ryu like that yet. The best one I played is aminx but once again, we know each other inside out. And as for the 1 or 2 or 3 bar connection, you should know that you are using the internet, so games will always have delays. No matter how green it is, even on full green connections, the game will never be as accurate as playing at the exact same console or arcade. I believe once you leave your bar comments on the side, you will enjoy the game better and have a positive influence on your sf4 friends. Trust me, I do understand how lag affects the game. You are not going to give me a lesson on lag. Ive learned that it is best to go for the throw first, the worse thing that can happen is a TECH.

All I can say, I cant help my connection, we live too far away. My goal here is not to beat up guiles, nor to flame someone(it seems you are heading in that direction). If that is the case we can call it END. Good luck finding decent players in your same neighborhood so you can play your IDEAL game.

lol why do you think i am flaming you? wtf?

i can find loads of 4/5 bar matches…loads. is it hard to get a decent connection in mexico?

i’m sorry but it was a horrible connection. the other guy above me (eitook) who has also played you is from london too. he also says the connection was horrible. am i saying it’s your fault? no. it’s just because you live in mexico and i live in england, nothing more.

the game will never be accurate online, i agree. however, i would say 95% of the matches i play online are more accurate than the set i had against you. if i was blaming a defeat on lag i would understand why you thought i was bitching, but i won our set. the only thing i was saying was that I WISH we could play on a better connection so we could have better matches against each other. don’t take it to heart or think that it’s supposed to mean something against you because it’s not.

my connection with aminx was twice as good as the connection i had with you. i lost to him fair and square 5-4.

After played SF4 over PSN and over PC, the connection over the PC is much more stable and much more reliable. You’d easily find 3 bar connections. You’ll even find more 4-5. I’m no longer losing because my cr.fp doesn’t come out. I’m losing because of (mostly) my stupidity.

I think I’ve seen more 4-5 bars playing on PC than I have on PS3. Unfortunately, the pool of PC players is limited compared to the PSN ones.

edit:
Currently
~2900bp on PC (I actually win! Maybe because the opponents underestimates me…13000bp Sagat vs 2900bp Guile? Total push over, right? Though, I wish I weren’t so cheap and busy so that I could frequent the arcade more often :frowning:
~9500 on PSN

just so that you know Mexico has one of the top 3 richest man on earth. He owns Telmex, mexican telephone that services Latin america. This company is selling us 1 meg connection at a rate of 35 dlls a month. It does not allow any other company to come in and sell internet and if it does, telmex will rent the infrastructure. The telephone structure here in mexico is pretty old, so instead of 1 meg, make it .8 meg. You want me to pay 60 dlls for 2 megs to have 3 bars?? I dont think so, be happy with what you have. I have 3-4 lines vs USA users, London No Sir.

Regarding this disparity between my PSN experience (no lag; near arcade parity) and others (folk in the US, it seems), I’m curious as to how many PSN players are using WiFi with their PS3 as opposed to ethernet. For those who don’t know, the WiFi stack on the PS3 is poop.

lol. Well obviously I am on ethernet. I do have wi-fi but there is more delay.

I originally had my PS3 on WiFi then changed to ethernet (using secondary router as a switch - maybe I should see what happens when I directly connect to my main router), which made a difference indeed! However, the change wasn’t monumental.:sweat:

IMO, I don’t really mind where you are. If the connection allows 3 or more (and actually plays like it), then it’s all good. Playing on a 3 bar connection is better than going to <insert location of your opponent> via airplane. :looney:

One thing that would be great in the matchmaking for SSF4 is setting the country as priority instead of the language. When I search for English, I get folks from across the pond and down undah, which is invariably one bar.

sup dude? yeah i started doing that kinda shit more for sure. I was told by someone else i play regularly after that that my defense got better so i think i got a little better since then. Mirror matches are just a BITCH for me since im used to rushing other characters. Plus that day i was off my game so bad. the next day me and your friend went even when the day before i think i only got 1 win. Ill hit u up again though so we’ll see how i can change my shit up more against you.

ohh yea, compared to how I played before I can say that now I am 2 times a better defensive player, due to so many cross ups and grabs that I have to back off. And yes I am sure ur game has improved, you have a nice way to deal against cross-ups, aminx told be about it and I am implementing it. play you soon
