Rally Point: Gameworks

If only we could tell mashers not to “hit the buttons like that” without them taking offense.

anybody gonna be at gameworks tomorrow or should i just go thursday?

Let the techs know, but curb the frustration. From experience: if you can show the tech that something aint right, they will fix it (if they have the parts). They will more than likely put the game into test mode, hit the questionable buttons/stick, show you the input, and make a decision.

Posting here is cool, but MAKE SURE you tell a tech on duty while you are there. No guarantee that a night tech (read: Nate) will be reading this.

I honestly believe that if you show Nate that something is legititly wrong without all being in his face about THIS SHIT DONT WORK he has the aptitude to fix the problem. He also has the right to ignore your ass if you are BEING an ass. Techs there are responsible for a LOT of shit there, believe me. And I know for a FACT that Nate loves fighting games. He does what he can with the limited resources that he has. He wants to make this scene work.

I realize that games there are a buck a play (spent 60 bucks over the past 2 weeks PRACTICING Tekken), but you all should realize that GW techs don’t get paid what they should be. They do what they can. And some.

And.

This.

Police your love.

By now you all know the fragility/awesomeness of jap parts.

meet these guys:

Some people are bitches like that. I’ll be there tomorrow for viper practice/bison savageness.

GW Techs are beyond excellent. I have never alerted one of them of a problem that wasn’t addressed on a fighting game in a reasonable time.

And I am always nice to them cus I am heavy handed as FUCK and literally cannot help it, I mash hella hard. Which is why I like playing on my own sticks. :rofl:

That’s why you only play Tekken at GW. I would only play SFIV at GW to play Jason, or like, if I was interested in being charged in court for destruction of public property cause that cabinet would get served up.

I’ll probably be there tomorrow to hit up that horse racin game! Lol

AHAHAHAHAHA BATTLE OF THE POONS that shits hilarious

problem with gameworks is theres like 5 or 6 techs and like what 300+ games? they have a list of broken games they need to fix and they get in trouble if that list grows rather than shrinks. sucks for us cuz we are regulars and these randoms that show up and mash on everything in there including the games we like and break the controls make it so you wont even wanna go to gw. nate got in trouble for “spending too much time” on fixing some of the fighters. i remember this one time he put a new stick in marvel and i think it was samson but he said UMMMM ITS STILL A LITTLE IFFY. so its not like they get a big thanks and they dont make the big bucks

tekken 5 was fucking genuis for having controller ports

Umm…anyone going tonight? I’m tryin’ to go after crossfit. Maybe.

Going tonight with Jules.

yay GW TECH DEPARTMENT

Hey Gameworks techs! I noticed how the SFIV machine don’t lock up anymore,

THANK YOU!

To all the cats that know about the recent tekken confrontation/ hype:

Jubei will be there today@ GW early. He said he plans to stay most of the day/ night too.

Come observe the MM hype, and Seattle’s finest in action:nunchuck:

I was reading that 2 nights ago, haha. If anyone there wants to show me some stuff with King it would be much appreciated.

I’ll be there tonight for some Blazblue. Sounds like a number of Dustloop folks will be there as well.

going to be there in an hr, if any friendly blazblue people feel like showing me now basics id appriciate that would be tight game looks interesting, likely be playing sf4 and tekken, wearing a white argyle hat.

How dare you. You are only supposed to whine on message boards. Didn’t you get the memo?

Gameworks needs less annoying people playing SFIV. I’m mostly referring to people that have an afro and a high pitched voice, and people who wear the same tank top everyday and use Akuma.

LOL Amen.
