I actually bought that JJBA HFTF CPS3 board on the trading forums. It may make an appearance at MWC, if I can get a hold of a supergun by then.
D:
Mayun, I was gonna try and buy that thing!
I guess I’m just gonna have to wait until another one is on sale. ;(
i’m not even gonna discuss any western shit till I get a car and free time…:wasted:
hmmmm, I actually only live like, 40 minutes from humbag, maybe I can get ahold of him and work something out!
/me sees a glimmer of hope.
my only reason for wanting to come, is to help spread the awesomeness that is jojo.
EDIT: I forgot I have prior obligations on May 28. Im the best man at my friends wedding. My buddy from Germany will be in the states, maybe we can road trip if the date for event isnt the 28th.
Anyone remember how to get Young Joseph?
Which version?
Dreamcast is to beat challenge mode with Regular Joesph.
Arcade versions both Venture and Bizarre Adventure is time release or the code on game setting menu (Up , Down, Right, Left, A, B, C, S)
I think it is arcade, playing on ggpo.
You need the savestate to get Young Joseph, the other 5 secret characters and to play other people without shit getting messed up.
thank you sir.
By the way, if you can’t find it, the savestate should just be in the chat bar in the JJBA room on GGPO.
Just copy it to the savestates folder in the GGPO folder and voila.
GGs to PotS,
i’m glad you are around, you and toki are basically the only two people that make me go all out, hah.
GGS back at ya, as always. Sometimes you’re just mopping the floor with me though, haha.
That was the first match I found in like a weak and a half btw, you German folks better not quit JoJo’s!
Yes I have thank you. So happy to play Young Joseph. My favorite character in the JoJo’s series.
I played a good Kakoin. Threw the shit out of me. Wasn’t much to do even after his strings either. His dash is so quick that I had to guess most the time, and the guessing didn’t really land me enough damage to scare him to not do it. A lot of times for the throw though, I swear I would break them or something but it was no good. His is throw godly in this game?
Throw Break Window is pretty small in this game…
Use pushblock if he does dash jab to Throw
if he doesnt dash you can just jab him out while he walks to ya…
sometimes yua just gotta take the throw
Was that sf2feilong you played? I get hit by GGPO rollbacks pretty hard when playing him; sometimes I hold up while waking up but get rolled back into being thrown, I tech and get rolled back, I jab and get rolled back; I throw but get thrown a few frames later… and since his playstyle is mostly around that throw I just had to stop playing him, ugh. Nothing personal or anything though.
throws in JoJo’s are extremely weird, yesterday against pots, he threw me on my wakeup several times, going so far as to walk into me while standing up, and i couldn’t reversal throw him. also, as xenozip found out, you can throw (or get thrown?) on your first landing frame, after that, your throw is locked for a handful of frames, then you can throw again. so weird.
It was haha. It was annoying getting thrown a lot but it seemed like he was playing the character well and I figured it would be good to learn what to do. I haven’t played this game since it first came out and even then I never really learned it because I didn’t have a stick for the Dreamcast. There didn’t feel to be any lag either but I thought there was something weird with the whole throw thing.
Yeah that did happen quite a bit. When I was positive that he would throw on wakeup I would try to break it and got denied.
Young Joseph is so fun to play in this game
Yeah, you played sf2feilong. He’s a good crash course in throwing, GGPO/rollback issues aside, as others mention. There are some oddities to the throwing system, as ATG mentions as well.
You should pushblock some (I spectated a number of the matches, didn’t see you use it much) just to throw him off and keep him guessing, but it’s not actually as beneficial in that matchup as you’d think because Kakyoin has an extremely good dash.
Honestly, it’s a pretty stupid matchup (I main Jojo). I’d suggest doing more down-up super jumps to win the height battles for air-vs-air with your j.c attack, recognizing all his tick throw setups, and punish with your super when he jumps and attacks. Don’t try to punish a dashing C with super (you’ll learn to recognize it) because Kakyoin can roll out of it (it’s stupid). His crouching C, however, is fair game.
If you want me to enumerate the other reasons it’s a stupid matchup, I can. Overdrive is not very useful since he can crouch under it and punish any dropped link for in your 2a,2a,5b combo.
If you can SRK extremely quickly, you can use your GC a little, but Jojo’s GC is pretty much the worst in the game.
Nice to see a new player around!
His throw does mediocre damage, but he has one of the fastest dashes, some of hte lowest hops, decent ticks, one of the faster rolls (http://wiki.standcrash.com/index.php?title=Misc_Trivia) and his 5C is basically an option select throw/one of the fastest strong attacks around (usually trades or better) as well as being able to be rolled out of.
no one has fun playing him lol, dont worry about it =P
