Nice post SmokeMaxx. To sum things up, this is what I think everyone feels! All though things seemed very fishy, everything could have been simple coincidence. I have yet to talk to Cedric or Kyoji but I can assure everyone that alot of thhe things that happened were unintentional. Hopefully, they will learn from their mistakes so future tournies run smoothly. Now, can everyone stop all this drama please… including Chit… yeah you!!! lol…
Also,
what did I miss that I have no clue why you guys were calling the Ark guys, Oklahoma guys. Guess I missed the joke? The Oklahoma guys at ARKIII were mad chill.
edit: Squabb, I will also be either mad late or not go to the Ranbat at all! Have a meeting at 5:30pm!
Random question… I’ve had my arcade stick for probably almost a year now… Yet I still have input problems on 1P side… 2P side I have next to NO troubles.
Just curious if anyone has any advice on getting better on your off side? Preferably other than “just practice.” Any tips or tricks to it? Anyone do anything differently to make inputs easier on their off side? etc?
I was like that too for a while. Practice seems like the only way to overcome it. Practice the motion (however awkward it feels… no homo) that gets the move to execute. And be very conscious of how you move the stick during battle to make sure you don’t slip back into your old ways. I used to hop online and fight for the sole purpose of getting my execution on point. Shit helps.
Yeah… I figure I just need to try to actively play on my off side until I just get better at it. I might try holding the stick differently and see if I can find one that helps.
I assume that you’re talking about double quarter circles to the right? db, df, db, df, f, up, attack at the end just sorta… go from df to just JAMMING it up and forward and hitting the button. This ensures that you don’t accidentally pussy out on the last bit of the motion before hitting the activation button.
KrayzeeJL found that out a while back and for weeks I’d fire up SF, go into training mode and do my quarter circles with that method before actually playing the game until that was my new method. Dhalsim has a LOT of that kinda shit.
uf, srk, PPP … b.HP, b.MK, qcb LP, qcf qcf LP <-- half circle back THEN 2 half circles forward.
I may just have to use this method myself… It’s actually helping quite a bit. I just hope it doesn’t mess me up in other games like BB or Marvel. (psh, like I play those)
I can do any combo for any character and I know plenty of people who use other characters that have a hell of a time with Dhalsim’s shit. I’m not saying he’s whatever… Just sayin’
Pat - that shit was cool. It was like three songs in one. Show me more. Also text me so I can get your number you asshole.
Hmmm…now that I think about it I probably need to drill 1p side execution more. My problem is patience…shit takes too long to get into my muscle memory…
