SSF4 Cody Arcade Changes

ditto with C. Viper’s ultra ONE. she could have people fall out of it in SF4 and I’ve seen it happen in SSF4 as well. If you fall out, Viper’s going to get punished.
Same with Sagat’s ultra. in SF4 vs certain chars weird shit could happen. Sometimes the last hit would miss entirely, or not come out at all.

edit: nvm I see its been covered.

I did see this thought “Rocks - Hit back increased” so rocks hit people further away now? so Cody’s ability to combo off rocks has been reduced… dear god what the hell is capcom doing

CAN be punished while codys WILL get punished. big difference.

stop trying to provide counter points the point is to big up cody as if he’s the only one dealing with it

Sagat’s is the funniest because sometimes the character will fall out of the attack but the cinematic will still play >.>

Only thing I’d change about U2 is giving the initial dust cloud a little more hitstun… U1 is the ultra that’s lacking right now.

Could be the hitstun that increased. Or a bullshit change, I know there’s a few of those floating around since it’s hard to properly test in a competitive environment.

If ultra 2s wrench misses it should stop there. Would make going for 1 hit as ultra safe and make juggles worth that extra little damage ex. F+hk to u2. A couple times i thought f+hk to ultra would kill and i became victim to the magic pixel then died.

1 hit ultras are just as unsafe

i’d rather it keep going for the chip damage

I can’t see them messing around with the hit stun of Bad Stone too much, I mean Bad Stone -> Last Dread Dust is a trial

Amen! There are a ton of people that have died off the chip from U2 or even a distanced jump in.

I think you guys misread. I said if the wrench WHIFFS it should stop. If it connects block or hit it should go still. I’m saying it would make it more viable for anti air, whether going for the one hit to wrench juggles, or just fulls hits off the dust. They wouldn’t be able to punish you if you did it as anti air and it hit them. As it is now, going for one hit ultra 2 as anti air is a bad idea since its very hard for only 1 hit to connect, and sometimes you get 1 hit and the wrench still whiffs. It wouldn’t affect its use for chip at all.

Is it too much to ask that if the dust hits an airborne opponent it vacuums them in like Shinryuken for full damage?

Shoryuken - Justin Wong (Yang) vs Cody @ BIG BOX SSF4 Arcade Edition Location Test

um yea…i dont see much a difference in walking speed at all

^that would be too good. u2 does GOOD damage and has quick start up. compare it to seth’s u1 for instance. But hittin only with dust should just be safe against airborne.

on a side note: they need to improve the dust hit xx pipe miss thing on the ground, tho.

is it me or does c.mk seems to be faster?

also, hk ruffian seems to hit lower, hence ducking opponent.

forwad walk speed seems to be increased, but nowhere near viper’s. backwalk seems to be slow as fuck as ever.

Kinda hard to tell, he was mostly jumping or dashing, and the only times he was walking forwards was when Yang couldn’t tech a knockdown. I dunno about c.mk being faster, keep in mind it’s just some camcorder a few feet away, not a 60 fps direct feed. That being said, I feel like bad stone is a hair faster, but I’m probably just dreaming.

Cody seems the same from that video. Might not be looking hard enough but it looks the same to me.
Noticed Wong getting annoyed everytime he got his by a EX bingo. Thats about it though.

ex bingo will do that…ya imo i didnt see cody forward speed faster at all maybe its just me

WOAH!!! THAT’S DOPE, the moment the player took a walk back I was sold… and at first I thought ex bingo distance was an issue, but I think its actually an improvement I think its not as unsafe anymore.

Hey fyi guys when watching the video** if you right click and choose “Zoom in”** you can get a much better look of the fight

center the mouse on the arcade screen 1st

Walk speed looks pretty much the same, especially back walk speed, which is disappointing.

definitely i keep trying to eye that shit and see the difference…if i have to do that its simply not there …perhaps bein as though the cody mostly stuck to dashing and walking its not enough instances of walking
