Haha! The glove has been tossed… A challenger awaits! Coolness, I’d like to see these new cancels. :bgrin: I can assure you, I am no clown. :karate:

luigi182:

@kemoiwan: I’ll attempt to get on this morning, but no guarantees. Today is our wedding anniversary and I think the Mrs. may have something in mind for me when she awakens. :lovin: Anyhow, you mentioned needing help/having difficulties in doing Vega’s Super/Ultra. I main both Guile and Vega(claw), so here’s a quick deal I learned about doing their Super/Ultra:

To start off, Guile’s and Vega’s(claw) Super/Ultra is done like this:

Charge :db: for 2 sec.,:df:,:db:,:uf:+:k: or (:3k: for ultra) when facing right.

1.Now, one of the more basic things one needs to remember is the 2 sec portion is not always the 2 sec. on the slow ass round clock at the top of the screen. You may know this from trying to learn how to do a flash kick or a flying barcelona more quickly. You’ll need to get a feel for when Vega’s charge time actualy is(It’s a touch less time than you think, it even slightly less for Vega than Guile oddly enough,imho). Once you get that down we can move on to step 2.

Here’s where it gets confusing, but it will make sense and click when you finally pull it off:

The :db:'s of this move are the only inputs of the move that must fall into place and must be :db:

The :df: portion of this move can substituted for ANY direction that includes forward(:r:). Which means :df:, :r:, or :uf: will work in the sequence.

The :uf: portion of this move can be substituted for ANY direction that includes up(:u:). Which means ::ub:,:u:, or :uf: will work in the sequence.

Additionally, the CPU in SF4 will allow for slop. So an additional direction or button presses accidentally thrown in between the diagonals can/will get ignored by the CPU if the move is done quickly enough. (I.E. Guile’s canceled Flash Kick into super is done like this: Charge :db:, :uf:+:hk:, :db:,:uf:+:hk:)

Now, taking all that into account, Guile and Vega’s Ultra and Super can now become a sort of modified version of one the more popular KoF’s UDM motions(Think Ryo’s, K’s, Kyo’s, or Iori’s UDM which is done thusly: :d::df::r::df::d::db::l:).
Except, the execution is this:
Charge :db:,:d::df::d::db::l::ub:+:k: or (:3k: for Ultra)

This may sound confusing as ever, but like I said, once you do it in practice mode and pull it off, it’ll click and make sense almost instantly especially if you’ve ever played a KoF game. Good luck :karate:

@chachi: Yeah, I understand. Besides, laundry took longer than I thought so, no joy. :sad: Further, the Mrs. was on a Numbers marathon since she thought I wasn’t gonna be home last night. Which meant I couldn’t even get on PS3 so even less joy.

And echoing chachi’s sentiment, hard wiring your ps3 connection to your router with an Ethernet cable is the best way to reduce lag…

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! What did you two get into? “keep it PG” there are kids on these forums.

ULTRAS:wasted:jeeezzz man so much confusion. You seem to know Vega pretty well. I really appreciate the help. I will have to take some time out this weekend after the overtime i am to do and just try to master the moves. I’m sorry if you got on that morning and waitind to find me man. I started to get sick and just went to bed. So far this week i have been in bed trying to fight this cold.:sad: I think it was the jitters of knowing I had a rematch with you and I haven’t been playing much. lol. Tonight before work i was actually feeling a bit better so I just might be on this morning.

Rex0r · April 24, 2009, 12:39pm

I want to subsribe to yours, teach me how to know about the story of the game and how to mash.

ExMortis · April 24, 2009, 1:09pm

for starters on hyper viper beam you want to mash UP. but a really good way to mash is quit guilty gear for like 3 years, quit all fighting games for like 3 years (sf4 dun count), then pretend you’re gonna go play AC in bar/coffee shop. haven’t seriously played since #R, whats really good!

being around benra so much though its hard to retain a lot of mash-based knowledge, you unlearn that shit like jin unlearns mishima style karate.

if you’re talking about the SF4 story cannon i’m still not sure. the story of a game is usually in the manual though (if you didn’t get a manual, you probably bought an illegal “bootleg!”)

Rex0r · April 24, 2009, 1:21pm

Howd u know i quit guilty at reload and am just starting up again.

Hopefully benra has unlearned mashing, tho he plays boxer so he can get away with it. You all do it(gotta say tho, afro did not mash last time we played, good shit!)

My manual has no story in it, and like, the endings dont make sense to me since i quit shootin dope :(.

jspot · April 24, 2009, 5:44pm

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAA- funny shit

L182- gg’s last night. it was good to break in KOF '98 UM with someone who knows whats going on in an SNK game. Also ggs in CvS2, SF4, and Twinkle Star

Teresa’s Zang pwn’d again and Dione is actually learning El Fuerte- which is bad ass, this will make my El Fuerte mas fuerte!

jspot · April 24, 2009, 6:16pm

hookup at my place tonight if anyones interested or has their roommate say you cant play at your own place

jspot · April 24, 2009, 6:46pm

hookin up as early as 530… prolly noob-tastic but were all trying to get better and will definitely have fun.

aks216 · April 24, 2009, 8:04pm

hey, gg’s last night guys. thanks for comin up. definitely got some good games in.

ben-ra. your boxer is gettin better. keep it up. i like seein you improve and for you to know that you are improving, that’s good. next time you’ll start beating me a lot.

chachi - gg’s. you don’t jump in a lot, that’s a very good habit. i was always waiting for a jump-in, it barely happened…i like that.

lyquid - gg’s man. i gaurantee the next time, you’ll be a lot better.

D-FENS · April 24, 2009, 8:41pm

Thanks for having us, it was educational in the extreme.

Chachi · April 25, 2009, 1:39am

GGs last night fellas, I’m probably going to have narcolepsy for the rest of my life now, but it was worth it.

Ben-Ra · April 25, 2009, 2:20am

sleep when dead, sleep is for the weak etc etc etc

Yeah Como is oh so serious. I will do my best to leech some skill off y’all.
