The VF5 Thread: The future IS now. RIGHT NOW

I know you’re a registered cody offender and all, but you could try clicking on one of the links to see :wink:

When ( not if, mark my words) virtuafighter.com is down, you can still use the waybackmachine to get to quite a bit of info that has been cached.

whoa crazy vid

… Anybody know if Dural is playable online?

Fuck, I hope not.

Lol good question. Dural is playable in Versus offline… but hopefully not online, or you can restrict the use through options lol… hopefully.

The vf5/doa4 stick isn’t bad at all. I recommend it to everyone because of how bad the 360 pad is for the other fighting games.

People need to suggest that demo to your friends, get the word out!

PS: I cannot wait to get home and grab that thing omg omg omg, custom stick time.

Got my custom stick and it works beautifully. Sanwa ftw.

Also, we should start up a new VF thread in the next few weeks. All hail Version C!

Yeah will probably just make VF5 thread 2.0 since this thread has been around since the first announcement of VF5 (arcade).

I’ve been practicing Akira since the demo dropped.

Man this game has the cleanest, best AA I’ve ever seen in a 360 game.

Awesome bro, make sure to tell your friends to dl the demo and give a try. Gotta get this game out there, with all the good games crowding VF5 360 release, we need all the help we can get.

WISE FROM YER GWAVE!

Holy shit, I didn’t realize it but on oct. 28th this thread is officially 2 years old…

**yo, “onehitcombo” **
YOU NEED TO GET THE FUCK OFF MY DICK SON!!! Stop biting my shit!! I’ll own you at all those games too, bet it you wack emcee. I thought south siders were supposed to be originators. Nice “hugovator” btw, I especially love how he’s gettin hit 3 times… crank that soldier boy!

… ?

What? You think I care if you’ll “own” me at games I don’t play anymore? It’s just in my sig for nostalgia reasons. I don’t even live in La no more. So wtf were you bitching about again?

Yeah, I don’t know why everyone makes a big deal out of the VF5 being crappy. The stick is fine, I finally played the demo with the VF5 stick and I had no problems at all, hey its beats playing with the shitty D-Pad thats for sure :tup:

Can anyone help me with that crazy ass one frame akira knee move? I am having a hard time doing it =(

Akira Teishitsu Dantai? i find that it’s easier if you tap G VERY lightly when doing the initial K+G input and release G VERY quickly.
you know you get it depending on how high the launch is.
hard as shit to get consistently though.

Ah… Now this is a game ill travel for lol. Ive played jacky in the past. I think im going to change up and learn Akira(Homestay is VERY convincing)

Akira is beefy, crazy high pressure okizeme. Mad options to knock you down, I like to knockdown and go for:
[2]6P+K - beats 2P, staggers which can lead to dash up throw reset or 666P xx combo, can do it out of a reverse crouch dash for mindgame
1P+K+G - on their wake this is a nitaku of sorts because you can go for one of two mid options or a low that leads to a throw on hit - i think Ohsu uses this sometimes

edit:
Ohsu beasting, last round is too good

If you’re still having trouble with the knee after 4649’s advice and practice, try doing it in training mode with the frame counter running. Just be patient with it and this is gona take a lot of practice to commit to muscle memory. But you can spot which button you’re hitting when and how long you’re holding it. Over time you’ll eventually get it. Then ween away from the frame counter.
