Both. Once during training mode.

oh, guess I should stay on-topic
Iād much rather play the Dreamcast version of 3rd Strike; I guess thatās how much of a fuck I give about 3rd Strike Online Edition
real talk, I know Iām not serious hardcore like you guys but aku stated exactly why 3rd Strike Online Edition sucks:

thanks for the protip
the Dreamcast version is worse. even with all the problems it has OE is still the best port of 3S for offline play.
Not trying to be a hater or troll or anything Iām just curious as to why the Dreamcast version is generally considered awful
can anyone give any specific explanations on Dreamcast 3rd Strike?
itās based off the wrong revision of the game and has input lag. it was considered worse than the PS2 port when both were out and itās definitely worse than OE.
- It runs off the Newtype/Version B arcade build, so all unblockables are taken out.
- Sprites are a different size, but I canāt explain this all that well. Iāll leave it to someone else.
- It only has the arranged tracks, no arcade. This could be debatable as to whether or not itās bad, but I think it wouldāve been nice to have both.
- There is input lag after I think every special move, or every other. Victoly pointed this out a long time ago and itās reportedly confirmed by the Japanese. If you do a cr.HK->LP MGB juggle in the corner, if you try to go for another LP MGB there will be noticeable input delay.
Thereās an old story of how Mopreme hated the DC port of 3rd Strike so much, he immediately went out and bought the arcade board for it.
P.S.- Thanks. Mixah handled the rest it seems. 
Thatās strange, because it never happened to me. I was able to get out all my combos when I did them right. Maybe itās because you were using the 3P/3K button? Did you try just using 2P/2K? I mean itās just two buttons, and it could be any two P/K buttons you want.

What, exactly, is so bad about this gameās online play? Iāve done most of my more complex combos quite consistently online(as consistently as I have offline, anyway). Granted, my most complex combos are Elenaās EX daisy chains, but still. Iāve had a friend do Genei-Jin combos and Aegis combos on me when heās in Seattle and Iām in Atlanta.
EDIT: My post sounded a bit aggressive, so let me be very clear. Iām not challenging anybody whoās saying the online is shit. I just want to know what, precisely, makes it so bad, because from my(admittedly limited) experience, the onlineās been a far cry above any console fighter that isnāt HD Remix, Calamity Trigger, or Virtua Fighter 5.
combos are doable in ridiculous lag because itās just muscle memory.
you can adjust to timing delay although obviously thats going to mess with gameplay. but you canāt adjust to not being able to actually see whats going on and react appropriately. stuff that is terribly unsafe offline becomes safe 50% of the time online. stuff thatās conditionally safe offline becomes like 100% safe online.
To be fair, the ānot punishableā effect is intrisic to āonlineā, not really exclusive to OE which āonlyā makes it worse.
yeah its not OE specific or anything.
Ah, thanks for the clarification aku. Wasnāt really seeing the differences at first until you pointed out the input lag. I was playing on the DC version not too long ago and it felt a little funny coming from Online Edition.
I was just using the preset 3x buttons to test some stuff out awhile back but I normally execute EX moves in a match using two P/K. Not sure what triggered it, it mightāve been the button(s) on my end.
Going away from the EX moves, does the music also cut out for you guys offline, too? I find it happening far too often.
The music cutting off during local matches has been pretty common from what Iāve seen. It happened during KSKās video when he was practicing trials. Iām surprised they never fixed that.
cmonster: What type of stick do you use? I was using another personās HRAP, most likely modded, for the 360.
Yesterday I played about an hour in oe. Then I played about an hour on cps3. Wowā¦itās so different. I must be so used to oe. I couldnāt anything. I knew oeā's timing was off but after playing both back to backā¦ Oe is horrible.
