I sure hope you aren’t referring to my Makoto combo comment. Because I did what I said in training mode at least 100 times. I’ve played fighting games (especially SF) competitively since 1991 and worked on several of Capcom’s fighters, so don’t give me crap about not knowing what I’m talking about.
Learn to talk from experience and not just from what you read on the internet, and especially get over your ego, kid!
Have they fixed anything at GW…
@ GW, “Fixed” is a relative term… The games we all love normally float in a space between operational and foreigner-owned convenience store.

Whether it works or not (which is questionable at the least) is irrelevant. It’s not about ego, you were talking out of your ass. The only one who seems to have ego problems here is you. The combo you suggested does more stun but way less damage.
Stun isn’t everything. If you get someone 90% stunned what good does that do you? I opt out for guaranteed damage (which is way more) or a reset for more damage and complete stun.
If you have to ask that, maybe you shouldn’t be playing Makoto. :razz: Having an almost full stun bar is a great way to keep the momentum in your favor. People get jumpy/paranoid/make more mistakes because they’re afraid of being stunned. You gotta learn to work with that and you’ll find the last 10% isn’t as hard as it might seem.
Also, why are you getting your panties in a twist over players trying to help you out? That’s pretty lame right there. I bet I could teach most or a lot of players at GW at least one new thing with their characters, and it has nothing to do with thinking you’re hot shit. You sir, need to take a deep breath. Seriously. No one from SRK is going to give you pointers in an attempt to diss you or something. Don’t be so defensive and learn to take some constructive criticism?
Well that says that…
Agreed with Mechanica. You probably shouldn’t be playing Makoto if that’s the case. Quit being such a pussy about criticism. There’s a reason we opened up a thread for just that- because it’s a good thing. Some criticism here and there improves anybody’s game most of the time. Even from lesser players, because it’s always 20/20 in hindsight, and sometimes another person has found a trick that you’re unfamiliar with through experimentation or something.
sounds like brian…
So… you’re no longer “bringing the stun”?
And speaking of…
Man, I got heated, at myself, for losing to two scubby mcscrubs due to lack of p1 proper action. ;[
FTL! BOPS!
lol!
That would be one of the regulars from Silver Coin at Southcenter a long time ago. I don’t remember his name but Joshimitsu might.
And for Gray Fox, since I talk out of my ass and don’t know what the fuck I’m talking about, I spent a little time practicing Makoto. So here’s a rundown of your scenario vs. Justin using your combo and the one I suggested. Some of the damage numbers fluctuated a bit, but I’m using the ones I most consistently got.
Your favorite combo: Command grab, FP, SAII, jump, HCBK, QCFPx2
My combo: Command grab (optional), FP, SAII, dash forward, backward DP, crouch RH
Vs. Ken, your combo: 73 damage, 68-70% stun. Without the command grab it would be 89 damage, 70-75% stun.
Vs. Ken, my combo: 82 damage, 90-92% stun. With the command grab, 69 damage, 88-90% stun.
Honestly, vs. Ken, it’s pick your poison since you either get a little more damage and him knocked down or a lot of stun and him landing on his feet. That wasn’t why I mentioned my combo though. I mentioned it after your match with Justin’s Akuma.
Vs. Akuma, your combo: 90 damage, 85% stun. Without the command grab it would be 109 damage, 85-88% stun.
Vs. Akuma, my combo: 95 damage, 100% stun! With the command grab (which I suck comboing off of, but you did amazingly well with, especially after parries), 79 damage, 100% stun!
So you can have 11 more damage, for a total of about 70% of Akuma’s life, or a guaranteed stun followed by a free combo that I’m sure will more than make up for the missed 11 points of damage.
I should have asked for his name, he left a little early that night.
hmmmm… my friend, sam played jill/silver sam/psylock, but I wouldn’t doubt it if he used tron/mag with her. he made a (i think) kenewick msp player give up a match at a lanwerx tourney by ocving him with jill. but I honestly doubt it was him at gameworks, since final fantasy XI has stolen his soul since 2003.
why don’t people talk their shit the day of instead of comming back to this forum. If you think you have a nicer mak money match him, if sombody thinks their better do the same. fuck this cry baby forum shit.
If i beat you damn near everytime I play you and you try to drop some knowledge on me I’m going to laugh in your face, and then use yur information.
1p on 3s is fixed, 2p is good, I keep getting down instead of lowblock and jump vertical instead of jump toward, but that’s probably me sucking as usual.
Marvel 1p is broken as hell… occasionally moving the stick will hit buttons, so picking randomass characters in team select was the order of the day… Mag… Cable… Marrow!
So yeah, 3s is good, Marvel 1p is fucked, 2p is fine.
If that ain’t desert heat, I dunno what is.
You are all a bunch of busters!!!
Man, I just know that the next time I am drunk at GW I am will be saying that non-stop.
Thanks for taking me back to the eighth grade guys.
yeah, i was playing 3s today after work. feels fine. was able to do bunch of hit conferms np =). marvel is still crap though ;/ i talked to nate (big bald guy tech). hes my neighbor and my friend and i talked about cab maint. he said that he actually shouldnt be spending as much time as he does on the cab. too many scrubby ass people fuck the sticks up and theyve gone through shit loads of p360’s. he told me today that he would love to have the cab perfect, but people telling him to do work on his days off makes him not want to. he doenst care too much about marvel though ;x /sigh
Man! That’s Bullshit! lol!
The scrubs are taking over the world! lol!
