The 3S:OE update has come

Just ignore jion, he shitposts inside threads that he started.

I’ve spent some time in training mode practicing my combos, trying to become hokage. If anyone on PSN wants to play with me add me, I’m in Toronto Ontario so probably the top right 75% of the states should be playable if the new netcode is actually as good as people are saying it is.

Note: I suck because I’m even newer than an 09er but I like the pace of 3S a lot more then 4 and if the online is actually good I want to learn.
Also this probably isn’t the place to ask but if someone could pm me the answer (or a link to the answer) that’d be great, what’s the best way to learn how to parry properly? Like I’m having troubles with the hugo trial and I can’t get the parry timing for a SRK to be consistent. Is it just about grinding it out in training mode?

Same here. I’m a 13’er but when I first played 3S I never played SF4 again. SF4 feels like I’m trying to move concrete and 3s is smooth as a motherfucker.

Yep. You can figure how to parry just about anything by spending time in training. That includes difficult red parries.

I forgot which one of the filters caused lag?

How bout NO.

You should probably play with no filters anyway and “just to be safe.”

They still generally wanted to do more than capcom wanted to do to fix the game, “pay for the patch themselves,” so give them the credit where its due.

Ayone have videos/screenshots of the mirror color indicator thing for us PC master race plebs?

Oh, absolutely. I was just nitpicking :stuck_out_tongue: (Though the difference is actually a very meaningful one)

I don’t know who telesniper707 is but shoutouts to that guy for pinning down the elusive EX problem.

Respect to Iron Galaxy for actually bringing the goods.

Usually the problem for newcomers is the difference between the speed of the hits when the move hits, and the speed of the hits when you are parrying, which is slower. As stupid as it sounds, try practicing the timing with auto parry on. This helped me quite a bit when I was starting.

good luck, its inspiring to see new people giving 3s a go :slight_smile:

I don’t know if it is a glitch, but it happened to me before on the old system too. Sometimes I would play a ranked match, and after the fight instead of the post fight menu’s we would go back to the character selection screen. Just like if it were the arcade and doing a rematch. And whoever won the match would get points for the second fight other than the points of the first fight. But now it happened that with somepeople I got three fights in a row, and with another guy we were like 5 fights in a row, it ended when he quited. Perhaps there is a code to input and fool the system to do a rematch.

Welcome to 3s club. Where true gentlemen and competitors gather.

Yeah that’s what I started doing. Smooth as butter from there on out.

I still don’t think this blog post is 100% accurate about the final patch changes since this was posted last year before IG announced the patch is delayed due to Capcom finding new bugs and needing to approve it anyway, so who knows what was changed during that time, etc.

Oddly enough, i prefer to believe in their half year old blog entry than your “who knows what changed” statement…

KOF13 gave me that experience. Was vaguely frustrated with SF4, didn’t know why, exactly. Play KOF, get SF4 allergy. Tried SF4 again a while ago and realized that the horrible feel of the movement was it. 3S feels much better than Forklift Fighter 4, as I call it now :stuck_out_tongue:

I think we have found ourselves some new 3s babbies. Hi guys, I’m new to this game. When does 3sOnline come out for XBOX 360+60?

must be an unintended byproduct of changing pro tournament and marathon modes to have that feature. if only two people are in a lobby, the same thing you described happens now. once there are more players and people are getting cycled, the winner can switch again. i kind of wish it was consistent so at least it would be like the arcade, but if it was accidental then i guess it doesnt matter. the game also seems to freeze more often than it used to, and at times that it never did before (char select screen fading in, pre-match countdown, etc).

i had a feeling that the effect of disabling stun would cut out once the dummy’s lifebar is empty, since 3s ports have been doing stuff like that for 14 years, but moves continue to not stun. the colour swatches actually dont look bad or intrusive on my tv. you can see how big they really are when the background flashes when someone KOs with a super though. i tried hosting a lobby to see if someone outside of north america could join, but nobody joined so i cant tell. i actually feel like the netcode is the same as it used to be now, but im not sure. i dont play enough to be an authority on those changes i guess. in terms of pings, im just guessing who to play since some high pings are playable and some low ones are bad. ill probably create a personal threshold at around 180 or something

Dander, stop. [details=Spoiler]Or say that to yomi face when he’s always fuckin around, and now he’s being serious - when I would have agreed with what he said, if they could explain in full, if there are any more changes they made, that would be a good closure, or the continued, one more patch, hotfix later to help fix things that got broken in the latest patch, bugs only

This thread got bumped down by another game that will be roundly more popular with people in the future. That Masturbation aid + virtual reality headset. So you’ll see less people stopping by to tell me they know what Denjizz means, “I get you bro.” Actually from his name he might be playing that other game anyway. But it could also be my fault for showing him a dumb no blocking video opposite to his all blocking video, I deserve the thumbs down.

So full charged denjin’s are invisible on GGPO + bad ping? That’s a really different game, you’d be thinking what is this abomination, why am I even doing this, during such conditions, probably don’t have to worry about it anymore. But what kind of full charge fullscreen denjin conditions ever happen with no escape, kinda what I mean. We both (his opponent anyway) didn’t charge real well, took that long for 3 hits! He didn’t show any right next to him setup or something for more “online only gimmick” but this isn’t the thread for any of this anyway.

So when’s the “Lenin Edition” patch?
