when i’m talking about it
sf4=vanilla
ssf4=Super 4(kinda like super turbo)
ssf4Ae=AE (or super AE)
(you can steal these :D)
when online i just type in those acronyms. cos ssf4 is typed faster than ‘chocolate’ or ‘super 4’
Mr. Wiz is gonna come in here and be like “That’s it, no more Chocolate for anybody >:(”
Not this shit again…
Can people learn to ignore nicknames they don’t like already? You’re not being forced to use it, and since you understand what it means why the hell do you need to complain about it? Why the fuck do you care if people call X game whatever? Is your life affected in any way, just because you think it’s stupid?
I don’t like calling Super “Chocolate” either, but that doesn’t mean I’ll bitch and moan every time someone uses the term. I’m more annoyed at people using “Strong, Fierce, etc” than this, yet I still keep quiet about it.
My question is, does it offend you that people DISCUSS things on a DISCUSSION FORUM? Is your life affected in any way because I choose to complain about things?
Excuse me for having a fucking opinion, buddy. Didn’t know that wasn’t allowed around here.
strong, fierce etc are the names of the moves? how can this be annoying?
No, my description makes sense because 1) it’s right and 2) there was no other street fighter 4 to reference at the time so of course it wasn’t called vanilla. It was called SF4.
I’m not saying your opinion is wrong, nor that you can’t express it, but do we need to derail threads to discuss this? Does this even need to be discussed?
I apologize for being rude earlier, but the last thing we need is another rule prohibiting terms like what happened to the MVC forums.
Those are the old names for those moves. Newer players don’t really know these, confused the hell out of me back when I first started here.
oh, i didn’t even notice that they weren’t called that anymore. I can see how it’d be confusing for people who didnt grow up with street fighter, but really, it’s probably not going to change until everyone born before 1985 is dead.
hey guys. characters, tiers?
“blaaargh use the words I use and only the ones I use”
but he clearly loses to sakura. i dont see how you could like a character with that poor of a wake up game.
capcom is stupid.
fei is OP, and so is yun. im going back to sf4
But he loses to downback. Yun that is.
Oh shit he has command grabs!
Vanilla was used a lot for games that underwent massive gameplay modification, such as quake.
vq3 (vanilla quake 3) / CPMA…
dammit kraal…
Yeah seriously. No fun allowed, am I right?
Sorry about that. Back on topic !
Is Sagat supposed to be a twin’s bane ? [media=youtube]sojxIIUWNpk&feature=related[/media]
(ok this match is one-sided but still)
I think his control of the vertical space in front of him makes it really difficult for the twins’ long divekick trajectory.
Thoughts ?
Maybe the best sub in the game seeing as he destroys giefs also… but still is not at his best against akuma/Fei long.
Right, because fighting games decide the fate of the world. There’s no room for funny business.
Except when it can be, which can sort of play into exploiting the ryu’s wakeup. If he’s used to dping everything and you jump at him with a pseudo safejump setup based on hitboxes that he’s not familiar with, you can get some pretty good damage.
Interesting to hear the comments about vanilla Akuma being considered the best or very close to it at the end of vanilla. I wasnt as into it at the end of the vanilla period, so maybe that’s why I didn’t realize that people ended up feeling that way. I definitely think Akuma was, at worst, right behind Sagat in vanilla, and I think Akuma probably fared better against the top tier tournament characters.
There really is so much whining by some people. Rose’s backdash really ruins the game for you? Her ultra 2 is getting nerfed hard… I think she’s fine with the backdash. Most characters have something really cheap that you can complain about if you want. Adon’s quick wake-up and weird jump, Viper’s burn kicks and cancels, the damage Gief and Hawk can do by mashing out an ultra, Ken’s step kick can be ridiculous even, Abel’s tornado throw, Guile’s sonic boom recovery, Boxer’s jab, ex headstomp damage, ex headbutt… That’s just part of fighting games. Some moves are better than others.
Maybe Yun is ridiculous, but there’s no way he’s so broken that he will ruin the game. If he’s that much better than everyone else, which he probably isn’t, he will either be nerfed or a lot of people won’t want to play as him because he will be considered so broken.
I think it’ll all work out fine 
I´m pretty sure yun is not going to be as ridiculous as akuma, maybe easier to play but not better. People are ok with akuma because there few players that play him at 100% in the world and they think the character is fine because of low stamina and stun (lol).
At least yun isn´t going to have a teleport and a 3f fadcable and confirmable reversal and that´s only talking about wakeup, it´s impossible that yun has anything worse than akuma vortex or corner retarded/unblockable crossups.
Akuma and Fei are better than him imo, and will be undisputed top 2 chars unless yun RAPES akuma, which I doubt.
