Ottawa Thread 2011

Once bitten, twice shy. I guess after my T1 deck got stolen I got a bit more jaded/paranoid about the whole thing.

Understandable, just throwing it out there

lol logan it’s a that’s-a-spicy-meat-a-ballla reference…
yeah so I posted in the G.O. monthly thread.
The gist of it:
Next month’s tournament is MVC3 centric.
Therefore, if there’s space, @ this month’s monthly I’ll set up a MVC2 station (I can provide everything but YOUR stick. I have no desire to be involved with or in any stick-provision drama)
Open challenge, ft10, minimum $2/game on the spread.
If you think you can take my dough, the invitation is open.
RETS GO!

That depends entirely as to whether or not there’s space… which I have no idea about.

Might be doing an order from BROKENTIER this weekend with the 15% off from WCW3 so let me know if you want anything…

So I’ve been fucking around with Vanguard Princess lately and I find it pretty fun. Anyone here plays it and/or would be interested in netplay or playing it at an upcoming gather?

Thread for the game can be found here: http://shoryuken.com/f2/donjon-games-do-again-vanguard-princess-196624/

Nope, not mine. I didn’t bring anything, and I didn’t leave anything.

I’m always willing to try something new, so sure, bring it to the next gather and I’ll play it. I reserve the right to call the character designs absolutely ridiculous, though. :stuck_out_tongue:

Are you sure it isn’t yours Johnny? You brought down a copy along with ssf4 last night.

Oh man, they are: http://www.relite.org/fr/images/uploads/20090907_vanguard_princess_02.jpg (somewhat NSFW, completely pedopolice worthy) but hell, what doujin game doesn’t have terrible design? On the good side, it’s got AWESOME animations.

Yeah, there are two copies of BBCS here.

It’s mine. I left it right beside my copies of tekken, marvel and 3s.

Downloaded it and gave it a try. Lol at the characters, but I like the system. The assist stuff makes for some interesting combo/oki situations. Also, a grappler with six different command grabs (not counting different versions for which button) is both hilarious and awesome.

Justin.tv - iplaywinner - WEST COAST WARZONE 3

that was some serious business guy! unfortunate but you could tell JS didn’t know the MU, and as soon as combofeind realized it too, it was GG

JS got eliminated by Combofiend’s Guy? Really? Wow… that match is completely free for Rog. JS won’t live this one down for a while…

yo word on the street is that Tak is godlike at Vanguard Princess… also that Umineko game.
His secret to leveling up is his Ayumi Hamasaki record collection!!!

edit:
Never beforeseen footage of Tak beasting! (On the left, with the retarded key-thing)

Nastiest Guy I’ve ever seen

1- when will asians stop this pedo culture hahaha
2- P2 looks like cpu

This easily made my day. Up there with lots of other random broken mugen footage haha

To the untrained eye that game doesn’t look too far removed from BlazBlue. And isn’t fighting with keys an Arc System Works [media=youtube]KdHSYLa6Ce4"[/media]?

@Justin,
Blazblue is like, the super high-budget, J-Hollywood redux version of all doujin games before and after it.
It is also more popular in Japan than SF4, although AE may have changed this.
Umineko was probably made by disgruntled Arksys employees who got downsized between CS1 and CS2.

Also, I am not playing any arksys games until I know for certain that they will not be nerfing/buffing my shit schizophrenically, which they have done twice successively. I had to switch chars between CT and CS only to find out that most of what I learned will be rendered moot by the massive overnerf coming with CS2?
How much time do these fools think I have? They must assume that I live quite the Sad L… owaitnevermind.
<Me>: Oh, Blazblue. Let’s play this. I’m a magneto storm player, why don’t I play Rachel?
<Arksys>: Yo guys we’re releasing a new version of the game.
<Me>: Cool, I think I’ll stick with Rachel.
<Arksys>: Sure bud… but I’ve got some news for you.
Why don’t you take a seat.
About those trijumps?
We were thinking we’d take those away completely, removing your primary source of offence.
Now you can’t link off any overheads period without spending bar.
<Me>: How am I gonna gain the bar without overheads? I have no ranged poke to start my strings with, and this makes my winded projectile horrible.
<Arksys>: I c u… how bout better command projectiles?
<Me>: But like, what do I use those with? I mean, it’s a lot harder to get in now.
<Arksys>: Oh, you still plan on rushing? How’s about a swift damage nerf. Hold that, brah :[
<Me>: Wow. You guys are dicks. Fuck it, I’ll switch to this Litchi bitch, who has full screen air juggles that build bar and end with an aegis reflector.
<Arksys>: OK brah, i gotchu.
Couple months pass
<Arksys>: Hey brah, we’re releasing DLC characters.
<Me>: K downloading, going to ravage.
<Arksys>: Yo sorry we didn’t tell you this but… you know those DLC characters? We’re releasing them in the arcades, along with ANOTHER complete “rebalancing” of the game… again. Sorry brah.
<Me>: What … kinda rebalancing?
<Arksys>: About that full screen ROM… yeah, you have no setups for it from any ground to ground or ground to air pokes. Sorry brah.
<Me>: … What do you mean?
<Arksys>: I mean you have to do the command stance raw. And you can only do one rep of that cute loop you were using.
<Me>: … so Litchi is done, then?
<Arksys>: Only if you plan on playing her the way she’s supposed to be played.
BUT on the plus side, remember Rachel?
<Me>: Stop talki-
<Arksys>: We’re bringing those trijumps you liked so much back.
<Me>: …
<Marvel 3>: Hey dude, just reminding you that I’m out in less than a month.
<Me>: O, I guess that solves THAT problem…
<Arksys>: MKP? That u brah?
<Me>: *added Arksys to ignore list.

@Andrew,
Don’t associate the rest of Asia with doujin fighters and Loli pls, that has nothing to do with ne1 but Japan, and the overseas weeeaboo legion who act as Otaku culture’s 5th column.

Also nobody wants to take my dorraz @ mvc2?
Depressticons unite!??!
