i dont give a flying fuck about sf4, and never have. so fuck sf4 talk. yeah, i mean i dont think im going to make it to nec being in vegas with other shit poppin off right now, but if we dont rant about it, who will, and you quoting a post made before myk even made that post on zaibatsu at like 3am, which doesnt really give us anything other than it will be patched. great. so lets just think outside of ourselves for a bit. yeah, if i was in maryland i would be playing with rugal, dalaw, turk, ect…, and it would have just been trial and error shit, goin through the motions, and i might have been a little more chill about it, but thats me.
for any other person maybe getting fresh into tekken, or any other many different scenarios, record mode in practice mode is a necessity. yeah you can go to zaibatsu and read through pages upon pages, and watch hours upon hours of videos to see what top players are punishing with what, but the fact is, it should have been in there. taking a passive approach about this, and just being like, stop crying, dont post anything negative towards it, just play it until its fixed, is taking the power away from us, the community. we need this fixed, and asap. not when they might feel like it. we should be outraged. its our right to be, and even if i was in maryland, i dont live with these guys and all we do is play tekken, so i would definitely be irritated still by no record mode. custom outfits, whatever, but we all know what the biggest complaint was, and all the other shit just needed to be said, but lets just go your route and stop crying so they patch some shit, and maybe miss others.
gameplay wise i was talking to my boy, its straight, but if niggaz is trying to level up heavy before nec, which is a month away, unless they playing with each other every day, with a vast arrary of different characters, a lack of record mode could make a big difference in their placing. we thinking maybe 3-6 weeks, with 3 being the minimum here, but thats a maybe. no official announcement, but the namco squad knows. they knew when they didnt put it in there. record mode is a staple of tekken, so lets not act like this was an oops, yeah, that was new to tekken, we forgot.
practice mode with a record option is beyond frame punishing. its throw break training, learning how to walk certain strings or punish them properly. its a slew of things, and they do have defense training with options we havent seen before, but overall not really as useful as record mode. oh well, we still got a stupid ass story mode in our fighting game. yaaay. fuck all that bullshit. at this point, yeah, the post should change, and lets switch topic until we get an update on the issue, but aint nothing wrong with talking about the issue, and lets stop assuming everyone has massive tekken comp around them that they can use to TRY to substitute for lack of a solid record mode. i know for a fact record mode helped me get much better in my past tekken days coming up. but anyways, im done with the issue. i posted my shit already. oh one more, besides throw break training, i use to use practice mode just for reaction training too. just have my character do a mix of moves, and repeat trying to block certain lows on reaction. there is a lot of beneficial stuff people can do in record mode for a game that a VAST majority of the tekken community hasnt played, or only played its first incarnation before br. but you knew that already.
