hey guys,
so I’ve been constantly playing SF4 and tried to play 3rd strike on 2df, and for some reason it’s like super hard to get supers out. I use a TE and I can pull out supers in sf4 with my eyes closed (these are the 2x qcf ones) but when i play with an emu i gotta like do the motion 5x as slow to get it out. Is it because SF4 is really THAT much forgiving on qcf motions or something? Or is it my “refresh rate” for my usb? Because I know it shouldn’t be this hard to get out supers in 3rd strike. Thanks.
Its because SF4s input system is hell of loose and 3rd strike requires more precision. Get FBA Shuffle and the cheat file and load up Third Strike, turn on the cheats for infinite time, and infinite player 2 physical. Then practice all day till you get it.
Idk, I have 3s on emulator and DC. When I do training mode stuff on DC it kinda messes me up when I play at the arcade, but if I spend a long amount of time on emulator I’m fine on arcade.
As long as your computer runs it flawlessly and you don’t have lag issues with your stick it’s a good way to practice I’d say.
You need to stop playing on 2df or GGPO if you want to learn 3s. Or play it offline is what I really mean. Playing online gets you nowhere and really means nothing because of the delay. If you want to perfect the execution there is nothing as good as the arcade. PS2 is close but it’s not the same as arcade.
SF4 really is that forgiving with specials and supers. I find that timing with Ultras are just as strict as 3s supers, though. But it’s usually not that big of a problem in SF4 because only a few characters can combo supers ground to ground in SF4. When you juggle, you normally have a lot of time and preparation in getting that ultra out.
SF3 training mode doesn’t have a key disaply like CVS2 or SF4 does. maybe a 3rd part program will help display inputs?
Good point regarding the lag on the LCD. I was thinking software and never occured that the guy’s problem could potentially be hardware. But I don’t think LCD lag is so bad that it could cause you to execute a super 5 times imo
The only possible reason I can see towards an input lag problem is that your computer isn’t recieving information from your stick perfectly. I didn’t have a problem with this but I think someone on srk made a post about it and someone said something about increasing the rate that your usb device sends info to your computer.
the controls in 3s are much much tighter.
practice HP xx SA2 with makoto. once you can do that consistently, you will never have any more problems with QCFx2.
