Greetings all. My name’s Chris, I was the guy in the gray skully and shorts yesterday repping Gouken. I’ve always been a fighting game fanatic but life slowly pulled me away from games altogether. Before December, the last game I played even remotely competitively was MvC2 and even that I never really got to cram as much as I would’ve liked. Been a fighter since SF2. Though I’ve been playing for a very limited time, I’ve been researching and watching SSFIV and vanilla since early '10. Now that I got my own system and stick, I hope to be a consistent nuisance to each and everyone of you as time passes. Enough about me.
Yesterdays tourney was great. Quite a few intense matches. My first match with Julio was freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee as fuck but it was anticipated as I hadn’t even gotten to warm up at home and more importantly I’ve had very few chances to play people live (living the PP BP warrior life right now unfortunately since I got a kid and Missus at home who demand my attention). Big props to Julio though, he’s got a solid Ibuki and he’s got that vortex almost all but down packed. Even though I knew what he was doing, I could do fuck all to stop it. My second match with John was a little more even, he’s got a good Dudley but I felt I could’ve taken the matches if I hadn’t been so damn nervous. I’m hoping my next appearance will make for a better performance as well.
It was fun meeting everyone, I’ll be watching the forums.
Yooo, this is Julio, good shit last night. Don’t let anyone tell you that playing on XBL is bad cause really, that’s all I did for a while and it’s still my main form of practice lol. Just try and make your matches productive and not rape everyone with the same gimmick because stuff like that usually wont work in person after they’ve seen it a couple of times. Just try and come out more often to our meetups as we actually do have a pretty good amount of decent people when they decide to show up.
Good shit to me stealing the match from Daniel and Arturo’s Cody being FFFFRAAAYYYYYY:lol:
Good times last night. Jo’s playstyle is gay:lol: I’ll deff be coming to the ran bats and be there hopefully every Tuesday now. I need more experience against more people. GGs to all.
Good shit? Are you sure you played the same match? You smoked me like a blunt! XD It’s all good though, today’s loser is tomorrow’s winner. I was very luke warm yesterday cause I didn’t have a chance to practice at home before I came out there so I’m hoping next time I’ll get a chance and I can offer some more interesting game. The XBL scene is helpful of course but since punishes and frames are different online, Gouken catches a bit of a break as far as countering is concerned.
I hope to be out more I assure you (and hopefully with my own stick! Gotta replace the buttons on this shit SE stick I got.)
So I js moved here from calil for a job-really hoping that miami isn’t the closest scene to me-im in port st lucie and would love to get some casuals in w florida peeps. Or any direction into a closer scene would be much appreciated!
I got a couple questions. Does anyone know if they’re going to fix the lack of sound on the setup closest to Initial D? It’s a big problem for some people ;(
And on the other hand. Is there anyway you guys could turn down Initial D a little? Like, it’s really loud and I’ve been hearing Remember Me for waaaay too many years. Others have complained about it also.
YOU GAVE AWAY THE PRECIOUS LOVE THAT WE HAD TO SOMEBODY ELSE
OH BABY I WANNA TELL YOU
D:
I told Angel about the sound, we’ll get Carlos to Turn That Shit Down. And as for the lack of sound… Well, there’s a lot there that I want to talk to Angel about, but we’ll see B)
