And we already saw that in a few tournaments, cough Tekken at Lucky’s cough.
Tekken at Lucky’s is a special case, one that’s dictated almost entirely by the Tekken community’s repeated failures to show up and play with the exceptions of a few people. It was run as a minor by Demo, who most likely valued every entrant he could get in order to maximize the Tekken tournament’s numbers.
I wish I wasn’t already obligated tonight, I’d def be there.
Last night there was me, lawrence, alice-chan (sorry keep forgetting your name >.>) and sofa king (chris?) that are into tekken. There was a bit of tekken going on for about 30 min. If i’m not mistaken nappz is into tekken as well and hopefully he can make it out next week to.
Demo if you have a setup you can bring that would be AMAZING and we could dedicate it to tekken. Or if anyone that plays tekken could bring a monitor and som1 else bring a system, however we get it to work. I’ve been talking about getting into tekken for a while.
Although marvel has things like xfactor and phoenix…its just so addicting and fun -_- It has mechanics I truly hate yet I cant quit this game.
I wish I couldn’t quit Marvel. I just can’t take that game engine and it’s system mechanics seriously anymore. I “think” I’d like to play it but it’s just a pile of nonsense the way it’s currently played here.
Marvel is fun as long as you’re winning / not dropping combos / not getting DHC glitched / not fighting wolverine / not fighting phoenix / can block zero / not guessing wrong on TAC / not getting level 3 x factor comebacked / not getting your main character and your assist blown up.
Otherwise, it’s fucking fantastic!
ggs last night GameWizard. I couldn’t stay on long anyway, but I definitely need to learn the 'sim matchup…that’s one that I’ve always hated (and balrog). 
Eh, Zero isn’t really in the same tier as Wolverine or Phoenix. But that’s not really what I meant.
You’d think that but last night at Jos’s everyone was talking about him like he was 100 times worse than wolverine. In the end, he’ll be better than Wolvie. But yeah, my post wasn’t really related to yours. Yours just inspired mine mostly.
On another note, I gave it some thought… I might get a hit box instead of an arcade stick. I feel like it has the least limitations / most potential out of all the other input devices right now. I used to play DFO on keyboard so it won’t be too weird for me. If I do get one though, I need someone to give me a plinking tutorial.
I thought about getting a hitbox as well but I remembered that it’s banned in MvC3 because you can hold left and right at the same time and block both ways. Obviously this can’t exactly be done with a pad or stick so I can see why it would be an oversight on Capcom’s part.
honestly this in and of itself should make them illegal for tournaments
My actual name is Mike, also for all the new guys showing up in the scene I direct you to http://www.youtube.com/user/NCMatchmaking?feature=mhee, everywhere I travel I usually take vids of the NC scene, most recently got vids of how some of our guys did at CEO.
You can do that on a pad actually using the left joystick.
I don’t think I’d want a hitbox. I was talking to this friend of mine named Sentinel, and he said his hitbox has caused him nothing but problems and it’s hard for him to block with it.
I dunno, my friend Ammy said it’s pretty good for her. She was in the cross fire of a gang shoot out once and the bullets went right over her, told me it was all thanks to her hitbox.
I heard it doesn’t work on pad cause as soon as you use either the analog stick or the d-pad the other one becomes disabled.
zero isn’t broken Jon you are!!! we should just ban Jon from tourneys.
A hitbox cannot do this, The only game this is possible in is MvC3 because every other games code prevents this from taking place. This is possible in MvC3 on a pad (OJ demonstrated it for me).
Hitbox’s firmware prevent left/right from being able to be recognized at the same time, if you hold down both then your character stays in a nuetral state and its as if no direction is being selected in while they are both being input.
This actually makes them ‘more fair’ then a pad in MvC3.
Yeah I was actually doing this on pad every time Garrett tried to cross me up with maximum wesker haha. It’s definitely possible.
It’s Arcana Heart 1 all over again…OH HAY GUYS LOOK AT THESE COOL COMBOS I CAN DO BY BINDING 2 C BUTTONS WITH TIME KAMUI.
If that’s the case then I might get a hitbox to test it out. Also pad players are apparently cheaters now.
