Yo Kaiten I need you to get a 360 man. Watch.

Teaming up online would be sick. I could be Steve and you could be Hwoarang.

you guys are actually gonna play SFxTK? wow. seems I’m the only one with dead hype for the game cuz of P4A lol.

gat dayum am I seeing this right? looks like Akihiko’s crouching jab is as busted as SF4 Boxer’s.

I did not follow it at all tbh. I just heard like 2 days ago that Dudley would be DLC eventually so that automatically made me hype. Honestly if Steve Fox was not in the game I would not have a reason to buy it until Dudley gets released. That being said I’m actually slightly hyped for the game now…it can’t be worse then Marvel 3 right?..RIGHT?

I think it would make more sense if Kaiten is Steve…

Steve is pretty dope. he was my favorite character in TK next to King, who actually looks pretty good in this game as a second for that knee juggle loop. still disappointed he doesn’t have his grab chains anymore, because that would be broken in a game like this and everyone would be on dat throw tech gem to counterpick King.

how are TOs gonna handle gems, btw? seems they were kind of a non-issue on Cross Assault. I mean the show is ass but surprisingly, I don’t think I’ve heard any complaints about the gems being busted or anything. pretty surprised nobody was counterpicking Renic or Mike Ross’s team by putting throw tech gems or something.

Haven’t most showings of the game just used default load outs of Attack, Defense, or Speed so far? I haven’t followed the game much (even less after the Vita debacle) but I don’t think anyone has been running completely custom gem sets. I could be wrong though, just what I think I remember seeing.

I dunno, I remember like day 2 when Hornett was playing Renic (was it for immunity? it was the day Roku Fera was “eliminated”) and he switched to Asuka on the second game and lost. I remember Max saying one of the factors why he lost was because he didn’t set his gems for Asuka-- besides him whiffing every single combo attempt lol.

Throw tech gem wouldn’t do much as it can only tech normal throws, not command grabs which were what these players were mainly using in their gameplan and each assisted tech takes away half a bar.

lol that’s why I’m getting it. I’m a bit miffed that Elena, Cody, Sakura and whoever else are DLC, as those are the characters I wanted -_- But even if the game turns out terrible (which everybody is now saying it won’t) at least I’ll have training mode and flashy new combos to play around with.
I need a game to play besides Ultimate, but P4U doesn’t come out til the end of summer and Skullgirls doesn’t come out until the end of time. Maybe I’ll finally learn how to properly play BlazBlue, but I guess I gotta buy Extend now (I could’ve sworn I just bought CS… bah!)

^yeah I probably need to pick up Extend to get familiar with ArcSystems FGs so it’s easier for me when P4A comes out. ARAKUNE HERE WE GOOOOOO

I’m not gonna lie I didn’t really watch Cross Assault so I can’t confirm, only heard about the drama second hand because it was unavoidable (esports, Miranda/Aris, etc.). From what I’ve seen on like CCLive, it was just default load outs I think, hard to say. The more busted gems might be DLC/preorder or need to be unlocked. It took people less than a day to find the most broken cards for H&H which worries me for SFxT. I get the idea of customization, but I won’t be surprised if it becomes a case of oh you use X, yeah you’d be dumb to not use these gems. Kind of similar to the way Marvel is with certain characters needing certain assist types though so I guess it’s just par for the course.

I’m not planning on getting the game but if I remember correctly isn’t Skullgirls supposed to come out like, this month? :confused:

don’t worry, I stopped watching after I saw the Ryan Hart vs. Combofiend exhibition lol. all I needed to know was how good Raven and Rolento were. I don’t think I’m even gonna play SFxTK now since I wanna focus on Marvel and P4A, with a little MvC2 learning here and there.

End of time, end of quarter 1, meh
Any day that’s not tomorrow is too far away for me

damn, I forgot about Skullgirls. welp, now I really need to get familiar with ArcSys FGs.

For me, like AceKillah, I want to play something else that isn’t Marvel for just at least a little bit. And I fear for my health/blood pressure that isn’t something ASAP as much as I want P4A it’s too far away. I know Theautophobia already has it (haven’t seen him say much about it yet though), Kaiten will buy it, Gomu will buy it, there will be people to play with obviously. My issue is, that there’s a ton of time overs which I’ll credit to the game not being out yet but a part of me isn’t so sure and all the DLC characters on the way. For starters that just tells me at the very least a GotY edition is coming and I have a fear this could be a broken mess like Vanilla was just to release a glorified beta test. Capcom has NEVER learned from their mistakes so I’m not convinced they learned their lesson either.

Fuck that. Now I’m DEFINITELY Steve.

im trying to stay focus on the games i have now

no point in buying a new game if my fundamentals aren’t even good in SF to begin with.

SFxT has chains too and no herp derp SRK>FADC Ultra non sense either

but I understand

nah see that not what i mean

fundamentals is what seperates the good player from the bad. no matter how herp derp or non herp derp shit is your not gonna beat someone who knows how to play outside combos. why you think jwong could compete in a KOF tourney even thought he only had the game a week while others had it for months? or that valle can still compete in every game he plays even tho he’s from the alpha era? or just daigo in general? thats really what im trying to learn myself but unlike learning combos that shit takes time for some people.
