Gotta keep 'em guessing.
Hey guys. Finally decided to register :rock:
I made the YouTube video about performing the RSF on the Xbox 360 controller (saw it posted in here). I definitely have it down now. Most I’ve ever done in training mode is 7 hits and most I’ve ever done in a match was 4 hits (ending with a slide…it was pretty much a do or die moment 
)
I’m trying to evolve my Fuerte and trying out the c.MK loop. I can do it a few times but it sometimes comes out as a leg throw (or a botched Focus Attack after hitting the wrong buttons, lol). Definitely gotta practice more. It’s definitely a lot harder than the RSF using my button set up because I have to slide my thumb in between buttons as opposed to just pressing them.
Wonder if it’s possible to “tap” on the 360 controller.
First off I’d like to thank everyone that helped and commented in this thread. I finally got the RSF down properly, and without the input of some members here it would’ve taken me muuuuch longer XD
Now with that being said, I’d like to know how you guy hold the stick? “Why?” you might ask? Weeeeeelll, I can RSF towards the right side pretty damn good if I say so myself, but doing it towards the other side,… not so much. I have the rhythm down it’s just the QCF motion that seems so unnatural to me. So I was wondering, is there a way of holding the stick that would be better suited for using a lot of QCF motions that you do with the RSF? Here is how I hold it;
If this is pure a, “You just need to find the ‘right’ way of holding it for yourself.” -situation. Then please say so, but I was kinda hoping there might be a way of holding it so it would be somewhat easier. Anyway, any positive input on this would be greatly appreciated! :tup:
Learning RSF from p1 side doesn’t translate to being able to do it from p2 side. You need to practise both sides equally and you will eventually learn it.
ya practice practice practrice… practice run! practice stop! practrice FIERCE!..
im currently ALWAYS getting 2 hit (not including the setup- FA or j.FP or etc)
on a good night can offten hit 3
and in training can hit 4 or 5 every once in a while… i get really excited and have to regain composure before i can ever get back to 4 after that tho. haha
the big thing is, i can do this from both sides… what brainz said is VERY important!
i got into to practicing both sides while also practicing the spacing for the j.FP crossup… then i figured ‘why not link into s.FP and then RSF’
my new thing that i’ve been using is j.FP, s.FP, RSF x2, Q-Bomb and then super if i got it. decent dmg and it resets and it demoralizes the opponent.
g’dam i love fuerte!
this threads been around for awhile but some other personal RSF info.
It took me about 4 weeks of practice (3 hours everyday) to get down 4 linked fierces 100% of the time. (as well as linking in slides / jump ins / cross overs)
I said to myself I didn’t care how long it would take I just wanted to get it down 100% of the time and now I pull it off easier than Shoryu -> fadc -> ultra
What ever works best for you but for me…
I put the stick between my pinky and ring finger but to be honest during RSF I only use my left hand’s middle finger I control the stick through the balltop using the middle of my middle finger. I simply hold down+right and slap the balltop to the down position with the tip of my middle finger. (a little trick I picked up and has served me well)
Wow. RScMK is really hard to do on the 360 controller. I got my first 3 hit combo a little while ago. It slightly differs than the RSF, but those slight differences make it kinda tough.
Firstly, my MK is mapped to B (default) so I have to carefully slide my thumb from X (LP) to B (MK) and avoid hitting Y (my PPP), which I do quite often. Also, knowing exactly when to hold crouch is something that I’m mastering. It works a lot better when I turn the sound off and just listen to the clicking of the controller. And lastly, the imputs have to be MUCH faster than RSF
Also, it’s too bad that c.MK > HP won’t combo. :lame:
c.MK (1 hit) > HP (1 hit) > HP (2 hits) > HP (3 hits) > c.MK (4 hits) > HP (resets)
Can the RSF be done on a regular ps3 controller?
Yeah, I’m currently playing with a PS3 controller and it is.
Got a new record on the RSF loop today against my friend, Cipher’s Akuma.
5 round match
1st round I successfully did 12 hits.
2nd round I pulled off 13!
Before today, my record was 6, though only 4 in battle.
I guess it just clicked. Practice makes perfect.
Just started playing fuerte…
…is the QCF+P supposed to be a negative edge off of the fierce punch?
no, its a normal input. but btw, i would honestly suggest you to learn the “basics” of fuerte first before learning the RSF.
like safe-tortilla, corpse-hop and the other okizeme “tricks”.
another good combo ii never seen anybody do but me is…
s.Fierce>RS s.Medium Punch>RS c. Medium Kick>Super.
its a nice combo =)
gief2k is right
yur right…ii agree with you
but ii juss said its a nice combo.
it doesn’t mean “you” have 2 use it in a fight…
try it out and you’ll see what im talkin about.
sweet combo but for an fight useless
but i agree with you nice combo it looks very flashy
does ANYONE here negative edge the run off the fierce successfully?
i have no problem getting 2 hits at all, but i just cant get that third. im not planning on moving to fuerte, i just came back to hard trials for characters i hadnt finished and i’ve got it down to just fuerte and viper to go…
i finally did it after a break. negative edged the run. so pleased.
I also negative edge the run.
