New Hampshire: The Sessions...Return of Salt Mines Starts 1/15/13

That was Dusty rocking the CvS2 cab, wasn’t it?

Too bad the coin slot is still dodgy on that machine; I wanted to show him the power of Team Third Strike.

what joke

You dayyyyyyym, lets play tommorow gents? Let me know whats good, also i am around tonight all night, so if anyone would liek to come get some rounds in and such let me know and we can do so !

combo-troll successful!

damn you guys keep talking bout the arcade makes me wanna go, management sounds cool (with the whole fix whats broken), i hope they dont go out of buisness. how many people are usually in there? a good amount? itd be pretty sweet if they could hold tournys too!

also lawrence bout the marvel room, i would def. go if i could get a ride, if anyone is going through manchester and could gimme a ride thatd be sweet (i got gas $).

Also craig your arthur will be no match for my v. joe. itll be funny trying to combo since theyre both so small.

Snow today gents so no Salt Mines (sigh, getting annoying).

Thanks for letting me know Wigz, I can get you in Manchester, its not that far at all. If you want to come on Saturday I can get you early and you can spend the day since I am not sure if you were planning on going the sleepless Friday into Saturday grind:wow:. Regardless don’t sweat the ride.

Kraig’s arthur won’t have a chance to breathe with the unblockable setups with low assist X-23 and Amaterasu I have in mind…Get use to the corner…:nunchuck:

Yo, I thought snow this morning was going to give way to a partly cloudy day in the afternoon. Unblockable, unsmockable. still gotta set it up (which has the potential to not be that hard in this game–oof!). And, laurence, I play grappler characters, I love the corner. Feel totally comfortable in there thanks to be repeatedly locked down in BB and then turning the tide and stealing the match.

You sure we cancelling this evening?

Yeah man this isnt really snow my friend, just a bit of a flurry. I was really looking foward to coming by tonight, im sure people could still make it, i ask that you reconsider your descion of cancel :smiley:

I am keeping track on my weatherbug app lol. We are suppose to be getting heavy snow this evening that was suppose to come Wednesday. Looks like GU cancelled for similar reasons.

BB and Super Down Back Fighter 4 allow various defense options that allow you to turn the tide of battle suck as bursting and that counter attack that is seldom used in BB (fwd a+b I believe) and Barrier gaurd.

There is a reason why ClockWork Strider Doom lockdown was so effective. In this game its been reported you can cancel blockstun into X-Factor, which grants invincble frames for a super right after, but using X-Factor early seems to be a bad strategy since its the only real comeback mechanic the game has to offer. Plus you can only do it once. And with no Back dash to dunk shennanigans, no bursting, no IB tricks I can assure you being in the corner will not be “comfortable.” I’ll show you on the 18th:china:

A few of the vids that have come out (Capcom Suite and 1up) showing unblockables already seem kinda cheap and easy to set up once you have the timing down. Apparently having the game being so accessible (ala SF4 et al) took out the steep MvC2 learning curve so it’ll be easy for even novice players to setup with minimal effort. Keep away seems pretty strong though!

heyy, I’ve been meaning to post this every since Thursday or Friday last week. But I was at the arcade and Adam from Pinball Wizard has been trying to get on SRK just to communicate with the fighting game community but I think because he’s a new signup on srk he can’t post on the North Atlantic threads year or something… either way! He said any issues you have on the fighting game cabs, be specific. He’s read things like, “SNK Cab is broken.” and he wonders which of the SNK cabs that actually is!

Either way, be specific if you run into any issues at the arcade. I hope he gets access to these threads soon, maybe start a PWA thread where he can make announcements or whatever!

BOOM and the snow is probably coming later I reckon, even GU closed it’s doors :[

Thanks for the info Tom, I left a pretty detailed write up for him regarding the SNK cab the first night I went there maybe a week ago mentioning the specific games in that cab in question. Guess he didnt receive the message:sad: It’s really cool that he wants to be this proactive though! Maybe we can make a thread for him if he wants to post up ideas, maintenance reports and game requests for him to look into?

I want saltminesssssss!!!

its clear out as of right now hopefully it stays that way then mines could run if laurence allows

Not suppose to snow bad till tommorow night :slight_smile: LETS MAKE IT HAPPEN !

Mini Mines: Prelude to MSP (Marvel Suite Protocol) tonight in my hotel room in Lowell.

obviously laurence doesn’t want to host tonight…

anyone else?

Sound good lawrence, ( i could do the sleepless friday too) i can also bring an xbox with mvc3…
btw i got the collectors edition, do i have to wait for the dlc chars or can i assume that i can use them from the get go.

Not sure if your joking around or not, but you do have my number if you wanted to get a more immediate update. Can’t always post up on the forums after all. Anyway my apologies to all for the inconvenience its getting increasingly harder to make Mines happen regularly with weather and general life happenings. I completely screwed up this one though so my bad, hopefully people made it out to Kraigs.

Its become more apparent that we do need someone else to step up and provide a “Plan B” of sorts since Mines is inconsistent and we all need to play regularly. That way there isn’t pressure to make it happen weekly for me and everyone can feel good about having another option to get their fix without complaint. The married guy with the small apartment can’t possibly be the only one capable of providing a semi-consistent place to play (hopefully that’s true).

Wigz I think you gotta wait for the DLC but i’ll check since I got the collectors myself.

I was just making a point. You’re the only person willing/able to host.

and yes we have to wait for the dlc
