NC Thread LVI - Sessions / Tournaments in the First Post

So basicly…That tournament was for online warriors?

Expect to see me at every EZ session, starting from now. I plan on getting an EVO Asus Monitor my bday (may13). So if we need another setup ill hopefully will be able to bring one.

Ehhh…I’d have to disagree with that. Playing Phoenix in lag is an awful combination. Yea you can catch people in your favor but the chances of you getting caught by random supers and combos is increased greatly especially since the whole idea is to avoid contact. Like teleporting on reaction to a super to avoid it and then just falling into it because of the lag.

Anybody trying to play today?

Where at?

  1. Can someone make me a flyer for the EZ tournament so I can post it up at the venue?

  2. What is the interest level for MK right now in NC? I wouldn’t mind hosting it at EZ but there are obvious problems including:

  • Button checks take forever
  • Game needs to be online for the patch to work
  • No clue if the 360 or PS3 version is any different

If there is enough interest we’ll run it and find away around the problems, if not we’ll just avoid it to dodge the headaches it will more than likely produce.

  1. What other games do y’all want to be ran?

  2. I know there has to be more sessions being hosted in NC on a regular basis. Let’s post them up so we can fill out that first post. What about the Triad, Greenville, Wilmington and Charlotte areas? Also are Keith and Jason even hosting anymore in Raleigh?

your best bet would be to run it on ps3 i have a stick for xbox but xbox you need to be online for the patch to work. the ps3 has kratos to. but other people like me have it on xbox and i dont have a xbox to ps3 converter(im gonna get one soon) so those are the big things. but ima supporter for a mk tournament ill definitely attend

Priest, I have one of your phone chargers here in case you were looking for it.

When deciding what system to host a game on at a tournament I don’t base that decision on what controller a single player has. At worst just borrow someone else’s controller if you don’t own one for the system the game is being hosted on. Also Kratos is banned and it hasn’t been tested if the PS3 version of the game has the same issue with the patch not working offline since PSN has been down for over a week now.

On the MK question, does anybody know what they patched just before the game hit the street date? Cause if anybody does they can test that out and see if that patch works offline on PS3. Just a thought.

As far as playing today I was just trying to see if anybody had anything going on today. Its kinda felt like a lackluster weekend, wouldn’t mind playing something competitive today.

I thought the psn updates were like downloaded or something?

Wait so Blake, you didn’t leave? I thought you left after you beat that one guy. Did you actually hang around for more?

The patches are DL’ed, but there was that patch they dropped just before street date and just before the PSN went to hell. So if someone checked what they fixed on that patch its possible to see if the PS3 versions have their game patches work offline as well.

Shit I want MK

Mortal Kombat:

I think we hooked up Tom’s wireless adapter to their network this past friday, enabling Raf’s costume pack for SF, so I think we can do MK on xbox with Tom’s box.

Also for the tournament:

I think we can also do a team event: maybe team tournament for Marvel, where you have to register your team so no counter picking on the fly, or my personal choice would be do a 5 v 5 Fayetteville vs Outsiders, we can pick 5 among the locals and the out of towners can create their all star team. just throwing out ideas:razzy:

Yo man it was good to see you for sure. I think we might be going through some similar life shit right now so the fact that we could take our minds off it together makes me feel a little better. I was planning on playing Makoto for sure, especially after watching Haitani play.

So yes, more of you dudes need to come down to Elite Zone and play. THERE WAS EVEN GUILTY GEAR FOR ALL YOU GEAR HEADS. There’s always a TV available for our old favorites.

Oh and for any of your Charlotte guys, I got accepted into UNC Charlotte so I’ll be living there for at least a year. So look for me around August or so.

And since I’m still becoming a salty old man, Mad! is still a shit garbage pussy ******. Come to Elite Zone new raleigh guys so I can take your money.

You would feel bad afterwards…trust me

I wouldn’t mind a 5v5 city vs city at the EZ tournament. Create some rivalry inside of NC, what does everyone else think?

Tom has no feelings.

Sounds good Kevin. Looking foward to finally getting back down there again. Just wondering is the venue where Family Fun is or was?

Fayettville vs. The (NC) World?

I like that idea. There’s definitely at least 5 people in the ‘main’ regions (Raleigh, Charlotte, Greensboro, Fayettville, Greenville, Wilmington)
