North Carolina Thread LVII

Too bad almost every game announced for it is a port of a 360 game, I wonder how much those controllers will cost.

edit: But yeah, inevitably the usual rumpus room gang games will show up, Mario Ice Skating etc, so it’ll sell a whole bunch at first and then just slow down…

I’m already assuming I’m not going to be able to afford it.

That and most of the games I have interest in these days tend to be for PC unless they’re fighters, they’d (They being consoles in general) have to come up with something really juicy to keep me from building this new PC i’ve been thinking about for awhile.

Are there any sessions in the RDU area this weekend? I wanna try out Blaze Blue, it looks fun and I can’t find anyone to play Tekken with right now.

Do it! PC gaming is 100x better than console gaming lol. I mostly just have my consoles for fighting games.

The first post on this thread has session and tourney info.

WRT Tekken, you’ll want to get up with Orochi_Negro, he’ll play Tekken with anyone, anytime.

They haven’t misread it, although it’s entirely possible that the frame data is inaccurate. It is also possible that you didn’t get crouch jab on the first available frame.

boots game

Does Chun’s mk super punish ex lunge punch?

No.

I gotta co-sign that as well. If fighters were on PC, I’d not even own a console.

And yeah, provided my credit is good enough (and it should be), I will be getting a house next year out near PTI.

You can check this now, and then you’ll have a year to fix anything that might need fixing on your credit report. You can get your credit report free from the gov, but it won’t give you your FICO score, to get that, you have to go to myfico.com (it’s a pay service).

Pikmin 3. SOLD.

Same as Lawrence just posted… Anyone playing games tonight (Arcana 3, Tekken, Blaz, Melty) in the Raleigh area?

We have the same interests in AE, lol. I didn’t know Oni had a second jump. It’s gonna be fun seeing how he’ll develop.
Also, does Yang’s Rekka come out on frame 2? If not, then, THERE YOU GO. Stupid Fei.

Also, I finally understand how to continue comboing after Acid Raid with Dante. Also experimenting with how many Devil Trigger specials I can land during a bnb/dhc. Things I’ve learned: You can do a TKj.623S after Volcano->Beehive, you can also do plain j.S after Beehive, but it’s very tight, and you very annoyingly cross people up in the corner during 3HHH->6H->Bold Cancel if you don’t delay the Bold.

Hopefully I’ll have more time for practice/sessions next week, I look to at least DL AE tonight and see whats up with Ken. Im determined to get dorms purification assist to work, might have found a way.

Oni’s second jump is one of his air dashes, he punches downward and jumps up, the punch has a hit box, so you can use it to dodge fireballs and anti airs and shit, then you can tatsu after it.

Fei’s pokes and damage are better than Yang but Yang can combo off his rekkas, has a dive kick, a faster command grab that he can ultra off of (Fei always wanted that) and comboable cr.MK. So I guess Yang is for the offensive minded and Fei is for the defensive, a bit moreso, although fei still can RTSD if he wants.

You can use 623S in devil trigger to get a knock down after certain combos with Dante that you normally couldn’t do with 623S j.S. It’s usually good when DHC tricking to Dante and what not. I think you can combo off the lightning bolts too, and they OTG, so there’s probably some use for them in combos, I’ve just never bothered. >_<

I look forward to hitting your Dormammu assist / being hit by his assist and being able to tech out of your combo lol

I heard that they nerfed Rose in SSFIV:AE…if that’s true I’m going to be sad but oh well. I can’t wait to play it tonight.

Not really, her Soul Satellite is the only thing that got nerfed, its invincibility on startup was decreased.

Hahaha Woooow…was I talking to you??? lol

Alright that’s good to know thanks for the info!

I thought the Satellite was fine.

I mained Rose in SSF4, let me lay down the hammer. They nerfed U2 so it is punishable by anything that hits meaty. It’s no longer a get out of jail free card on wake up, so the only use left for it is oki pressure. Without U2 she is ass, you find yourself backed up in the corner against the game’s most bullshit characters. She no longer has anything reliable to get the other player to show some respect. Except for maybe her godlike backdash, but that puts you closer to the corner. I really want to drop her, but I can’t :confused:

Other nerfs/buffs, fireball super trap removed, lp. reflect doesn’t build as much meter as it did in Super, st.cl. mk was got some of it’s hittable area removed, cr.mp ranged toned down slightly, and whiffing Soul Throw gives you more meter than it used to.
