I think zoners in general are going to be a bitch.
Jin/Dhalsim/Jack-X/Alisa/Guile/Chun Li/Akuma in particular. I’m trying to picture how those matchups will be like in 2013 and it… makes me want to cry. :sad:
Exactly, Alisa used to have to choose between being able to AA properly and play her projectile game.
in 2013, she can do the classic fireball-uppercut nonsense, plus cl.sHP>CADC will yield solid damage.
Wasn’t this game supposed to nerf zoning in favor of rushdown?
am i the only one that can’t get on IRC?
Not so much zoning but laming in out in particular. Pretty much character can lame it out, some easier than others. Not everyone has the tools to zone properly.
As long as both styles are viable in 2013 its all good. A good game IMHO its the one that doesn’t cater to one particular style too strongly. However, We have to let the game kinda showcase its worth when the time comes.
Well now that you can’t forward roll to safely close the distance its going to be a lot harder to get in on zoners. I’ve been maining JackX lately so I’m happy about this lol!
That was a stupid gimmick to be honest. The nerfs on rolling will help out both sides though. Oki game will possibly end up being more effective as well.
People who thought stages were too big will probably find them twice bigger in 2013 lol.
But anyway, I still think ver 2013 is going to be more balanced than the current version. I might be wrong about this, but I just feel like all characters will have a better fighting chance. Tekken characters are getting some really good buffs including better AAs. Zoning characters are buffed by the system changes. Characters with superior footsies are nerfed but still remain solid due to the nature of the game. So I have a feeling it will kind of even out certain matchups that were like really stupid before. At least that’s what I hope. But we’ll have to wait and see I guess…
If they’re nerfing rolls to make them punishable do you guys think that we should try and get them to fix the special move autocorrect glitch?
that’s not a glitch
and no if you do less than a meaty crossover then you run the risk of eating an autocorrected reversal. You delay crossovers like that to beat reversals but it will lose to delayed input (autocorrect). You dont delay meaty crossovers to beat autocorrect attempts.
it’s perfectly fair… unless there’s something i’m missing
I hope the SF side has AA buffs as well. If Jin and even Paul have full invincibility on their kicks then I’d better not trade when I SRK. Also, give me Dee-Jay and Rose!!! I don’t care who they put on the Tekken side but it would be cool to get Dragunov and Bruce.
I still want Dan… :sad:
XBL Australia marketplace has added DLC SF+TK Alternate Costume Pack, TK Alternate Costume Pack, DLC SF Alternate Costume Pack, TK DLC Alternate Costume Pack and individual alternates for the entire cast. No idea why SF Alternate Costume Pack isn’t up there. Not available from SFxT in game market, you need to access your extras from dashboard. Again.
Happy Halloween!
EDIT: Nevermind! In game market has everything available, gogogo!
Hey, Onslaught. Cool story, the guys told me that in the image thread too. Isn’t SRK full of diverse individuals.
small hitboxes leads to less health. Seems fair
We can have Dan, he’s not a match-up people have to worry about
Honda, Sodom and DeeJay would be awesome together with Dan, Q and Alex from SF side.
Well, Hurricane Sandy has come and gone here in Troy. Nothing much to say here…a few gusts of wind and a small amount of rain…and that’s about it. I hear that New York City got hit pretty hard though…I hope everyone down there is alright.
More on topic…well, sort of. Hopped on SF4 again last night…tried out Ken, and I kept trying to do cr.mk xx CADC. Needless to say it didn’t end well for me. 
I think I’ll be taking a break from the game though for a bit. Not because I’m not enjoying it or because I’m liking SF4 more…I still like this game more than SF4. It’s just that I’m on PC and we’re almost in November and we’re still 5 patches behind. Plus we got version 2013 coming here, and God knows when the PC will get that…I’ll be hitting training mode still every now and then so I don’t get rusty, but I won’t be playing online for a while. At least not until either the PC version gets updated or I actually get that Xbox I keep mentioning…
