The Official Ranting Thread

Does anyone have an HD PVR? Or other capable recording device?

With the MMX8 boss intro music i just wanted to shout BAMBOO PANDAMONIUM!

It wasn’t really physic, you just didn’t stop going for meaty pressure and gave away a lot of uppercut damage. He wasn’t even reading you, he just goes for SRK on wakeup nearly everytime. Or he rolls…to SRK.

Also I am so freaking sick of Ryu and Ken. I started this game maining Ryu and was still playing him in AE. I got so sick of him that I dropped him in BOTH games.

I’m glad to see Juri increasing in popularity online, as it helps the chances that she will continue appearing in SF franchise titles. However I’m pretty sick of the mirror match now. Especially because there are a lot of fraud Juris that just full screen divekick>mash followup every time there is distance in the neutral game. AND YES I SOMETIMES DO THAT TOO I’M KIND OF PRETTY AWFUL SOMETIMES

My ingame resolution is at around 1280x1024. I used FRAPS to capture the video, which underwent further compression with VirtualDub and then edited with music using Sony Vegas Pro 9.0c. It went a lot of processing, so it may end up low quality. I also need to make the filesize small so I could easily upload it.

For some reason I’m attracted to using Juri. My first partner is Sagat, which I eschewed because he felt like a slower Ryu. I picked Juri because of her speed and combo potential as well as her mystique when she first appeared in SSFIV. :smiley:

Juri Players Unite!! Though I find myself dive kicking less and less. (ALL ABOUT ANTI AIR NAO) When I’m on the vanilla version I spam the hell out of it though XD Weeeeeeeeee~

WA HOO

Rant: I’m a moron, forgot my 360 was on the table I slammed my fist into when I was frustrated this morning… while the game was loading. Got a nice ring on the disc like someone straight ran a key over it, won’t play consistently anymore and half the time it gets to the Vs. screen and crashes.

Whatever. WIll try to replace it tomorrow if funds allow. Sundays and Mondays are the only two days I get to really grind and practice though, so…

Fuck. My. Life.

I will be installing the game next time (tried to install it with this disc after the scratch, but no-go - it consistently stops at 17%. AWESOME.)

I know it’s not really a rant on the game, but I needed to vent. Sorry, back to business.

Roknin that sucks man. It’s just a game. Don’t let it get to you like that.

It would be a smart idea to install all of your games to your XBox as long as you have enough disk space to avoid wear and tear to your discs.

I’m good after a nights sleep… Looking st that post I did sound super depressed, lol. Really it’s the having to buy it again thing that agitates me. -_-

@Maverick - yeah I need to get back to doing that. Just need to get a bigger drive (still rocking a launch 360 with a 20 gig drive).

Player joins with red bars spamming ready. I kicked him out => inc rage mail: "OMFG WHY KICK, U SUCK, eat a bag of bla bla bla"
What the hell is wrong with these guys? Far east asians and americans are joining my room with red bars and they still want to play, ffs WHY?!

I hate the searching options, seriously… SC5 and SG have done a way better job!

It’s crazy how this exact thing happened to me like 2 days ago… UGH It’s terrible. Though for me it was a brush of my foot that shook my Xbox a little.

I hear ya’. All it takes is that little jolt. Looking back, I’m kinda’ surprised it took this long to happen, lol - I’m always dropping my arcade stick on the table my 360 sits on when I’m frustrated. :sweat:

lmao. Or you are a 10,000+ bp player training with new characters against a really scrubby person with like 0-4000 bp in lag who just jump roundhouses to sweep you all day or whatnot. They start taunting you because you are losing (b/c I dont know the new characters reversals, AAs, framedata, half of their moveset, ect) so I just finally pull out Bison/Juri (my real team) brutally tear them apart then either kick them or leave.

I also once had this scrub who was so salty he sent me a message saying “ur no pro if I can still land a move on you foo” so I proceed to perfect him. He sent another salty message, so I removed him from my endless.

Seriousbusiness obsly.

It’s the salt that keeps us serious. I’m trying to learn Christie and Dudley but when people beat me I hear Dhalsim/Kazuya call out to me through the FGC force then a million KenRyus cry out at once and are st.hp’d from full screen. :smiley:

it’s been a week and i still haven’t figured out how to play against these new characters. Those block strings :frowning:

Even when I KNOW Alisa’s overhead is coming I still get hit, my hands can’t keep up with my brain :frowning:

It’s a feature.

I’m annoyed that this looks like its third most played game now (at least outside of Asia), has an active community, and it’s still getting left out of tournaments. There’s just a whiff of arrogance here …

Got kicked from 4 lobbies today. Either my connection was bad or people just didn’t want to fight this scary C ranked player.
