^Are you near downtown stl? Been takling to rex0r about getting into some stuff now that I got transport, forewarning I suck, psn isn’t allowed at my campus and have zero live play experience
not very close to downtown. i’m near the intersection of hampton and chippewa. i suck too, so no worries.
this is just me, allen could think different, but right now he’s top of mid tier but will probably move down once the game is figured out. i used dee jay the most between the 2 of us so ill take this.
pros - he should be played like his st counterpart. his standing lk is actually pretty good. not only does it have good range, it can be canceled into a special move to catch ppl off guard. his c. mk seemed like it was either 0 or -1 on block(allen or anyone with a guide should correct me if im wrong). godlike sweep and as we all know can be comboed into. imo, combo into a non-techable knockdown is too fucking good. anti air options that i used were c. rh (really cheap if you are good enough to land U2 after) and s. rh (comparable to momochi using s. fp with akuma). im sure he has more. jump back rh is too damn good to not use (will loose to guy’s bushin air throw thing). the area it cover is amazing.
cons - his ex fireball is hella laggy. ex up kicks doesnt have much range. not an offensive based character (could be a con for those ppl who like to rushdown). these are the only things i can think of.
p.s - i didnt go further like allen would and do combos n shit. ppl need to figure stuff out on their own. im glad to help n all, but most of the fun is figuring stuff out. practice mode in the lab with allen was god tier. dissecting new characters normals and their properties/priorities. let’s just say 1/4 of the original cast will still be better than ALL of the new characters.
peace…fuck that. word is used to much. this is for my boy cody.
BINGO!
guy is my new favorite character. i’ve been in training room with him and he’s so fun to play. i been working on all the different mixups i can use and what exactly can punish his strings.
i just need more matchup experience with guy. but i’m really liking him a lot. i like the way he looks a lot. if i was a street fighter character, i’d want to look like him. he has great posture, awesome hair. really defined body, peircing eyes that are to die for…if i didn’t know any better, people would think i’m gay for him. i dunno if i’ll main him because he seems like he might have problems against certain characters but he’s definitely gonna be REALLY good for people who don’t know how to play against him :).
profound broness
I wish all the good looking ultras are actually good…
and yeah, fuck peace… I need a word dat starts with J… not Jesus, but
JUICE!
I wholeheartedly agree with all of this.
To add to what Glen said, I think he’ll be pretty solid. He gets the option to knockdown off almost any hit, solid ultras, and his movement is at least average. Also, cr. fierce should be a decent anti-air (it was in ST) but I haven’t tested extensively.
However, I have a couple cons I’d like to add:
- loss of ST st. strong is going to hurt him. New standing fierce is NOT a good replacement, it is slow as heck and may be your ass on block as well. Not having a great anti-air during forward movement/footsie situations changes his game dramatically, forcing him to turtle up more than ever before. This loss also removes his old ST combo. He has a solid replacement though, so that point isn’t too big of a deal.
- upkicks are nerfed in this game. Very rarely will forward kicks beat anything, and even short seem to trade with random stuff. EX would then seem like his best reversal option, but they a. have negative range and b. have ridiculous recovery. I’m still using short kicks right now unless people are just asking to get EX’d.
I think the only problem DJ will have in this game is the exact one he suffered in ST. People who want to play turtle will just pick guile instead, and people who want more offense will play one of the shotos or even a more offensive character. I think he’s still stuck in that gray area.
man… getting all the colors in super is so annoying… you have to get it SEPARATELY for every single character unlike vanilla… btw, guy’s super cancel combo after hozanto can be done anywhere; doesn’t have to be in the corner, and… guy <3 <3 <3 rose… his ending is hilarious. guy is like… “yooo, put dat gal down, and I’ll let ya walk away”, and bison is like “YES MY LORD!”…L:rofl:L:rofl:L my side hurts…
JUICE!
Rex - hey gg’s at hockey tonight. You scored yet again. Of course I noticed everybody quit the game that I picked goalie but I’m used to it. Nah just kidding. See you around for more NHL and some SSF4. Come prepared for the oily one and the king jaguar himself!
Ya, Weds. cool, or do you need it before then?
Scamp, on the scene!
Got my PS3 copy of Super. As some of you know on Sat the PS3 version had an issue with slowdowns when getting trophies during gameplay. I installed the game on my hard drive and that issue appears to be gone. Can anyone else with the PS3 version confirm no slowdowns when getting trophies if the game is installed?
I can confirm this Koga.
So, yeah…I somehow went undefeated at our Gamestop SSF4 release party netting me another copy of SSF4. Raeli won the XBox tourney but was taken down by the Kurasa insanity! LOLLERS
@Rex - Thursday evenings are good for me. Just holla.
i like abel.
Lawl, Gratz Jeff
That’s pretty funny considering you haven’t touched the games for months.
Well, aside from this weekend, of course
That good. So if any are used in a future tournament, people need to make sure they install the game. And I know some people don’t do that.
The Gamestop I went to didn’t do a tournament at all. They did have SSFIV demo for us to play and it was so stupid. Only 1 round fights and not all the characters were playable…not even all the new ones…but all the stages were there. I only lost once cuz they TV was laggy as shit and I missed hella inputs…on a PS3 pad. I had better execution on a stick than I did on that tv But yea, a could here some of them complaining about me using Ryu while I was playing. That made whoopin their asses so much more sweeter.
Jeff = Beast!
Yo, Jeff where do you spend your days? If you’re close enough to my work I can pick up Rex’s stuff on my lunch break and give it to him on Weds.
This would be flat out Juice(u just got jacked Jay :P)
Im down to get yah some gas money/buy yah some food if you wanna come out and get a session wednesday? Edit: I can get us a pizza from sbarro’s at the round robin?
Jay- dude all u gotta do is play versus mode to open the characters. Even easier you can select two chars right, and then immediatly quit out. You earn colors and taunts by doing this. Just play as em.
Glen/Paul- thx i’ll take a look when i got more free time. Not really a big fan of “hitting the lab” so i appreciate the info.
Edit: Brent- Yeah u bring the best out in me lol, that was a clutch ass game winner…but only 3rd star!? Booooo!! I will hit yah up for super/nhl next time i see yah on.
Again, Round Robin IS NOT tonight, its been moved to tommorow. Wednesday night, 6pm. If they have not switched over to super yet, we can do it at my place so bring your sticks and maybe even a setup for my 2nd tv.
Which one where u at? i was at the one of halls ferry, cross keyes i think. if u were at that one, i was the guy yelling to hell with ryu all night lol
