Virginia Tech/Roanoke Thread

In case you all didn’t already see, they actually did some move changes with the SF4 patch.

heavy CW is now a lot slower, but might have more invulnerable frames because of that. Don’t think it matters much for me though, since I suck at linking after CW hits anyway.

NM, I couldn’t really make it up until 930-10pm at the best =/

I said some bad things about Capcom 50 or so posts ago… but I gotta say… they did good this time. Not perfect, but they did good. Connecting to games is still a pain, but Champ mode is way more fun than ranked. Double blind = good, disconnect % = very good, and the cp/gp thing is actually pretty cool. Technically, they didn’t fix any problems, though… it feels more like BP is just being abandoned. I don’t miss it.

Just one my first G3 using Pikachu, fighting against 3 different Pikachus. I’m thinking Pikachu may be my new main.

Might be able to play tonight, a bit late. I’m hanging out with some other friends to play Mutants and Masterminds, then I’ll let you guys know. Hit me up on AIM if you’re up for it.

Does that mean Rog won’t get hit in the face when he tries to sweep gief from 6 pixels too close anymore?

I mean that’s still an hour of games I’m still down. Though I’m not much comp at SF IV and I haven’t played GGXX in a long time…

Thanks bra :tup:

:sweat: I hope not

I hope the champ edition comes out soon. People are missing everett getting stomped by my rog. Have they released a date yet? I think I read something on it the other day, but I can’t remember… because this week, if it has nothing to do with mass communications or archaeology, I definitely won’t remember it.

According to Seth Killian’s blog it comes out… today.

Gotta start up the 360 then.

Christian!

I meant to say good games today. You finally leveled up. How does it feel?

It feels good. Finally I can play this game.

On a somewhat relates subject will your roomie be picking up KoF XII or BlazBlue?

Probably not… I mean he bought sf4 to learn it… and has played probably a total of an hour of it. I might buy it myself if i have the funds. Get a 360?

OMFG. Ok, so I know that VT guys have NTC too (mebbe?) for internet because I always see it advertised here at Harrisonburg.

Anyway, while I was playing SFIV on CE today my connection dropped three times in a row (kinda, I had managed to play one match before the third disconnect). I called NTC and they said they’re reporting outages around their servicing area. Lol, sorta irked me when my disconnect rate went from 0 to 1%. Anyone else having any problems?

NTC sucks. Find an apartment complex that let’s you get Adelphia/whoever isn’t NTC’s Cable Internet. My friends and I chose our apartments by going to the front lobby and asking one simple question “Who is your internet service provider?” If they said “NTC” we said “Thank you, bye.”

Damn that sounds like a pain in the ass. I’ve never had problems like that. But then again I’ve only had Cox, and Comcast with no problems. That I can remember.

Marn came all the way out just for a one game sf4 tourney?

And GI Joe Resolute was really good. Not much of an ending, but I guess that means we’ll get a series??

Hoping for a series, even if they did kill off one of my favorites. Would have been pretty happy with an entire series with nothing but Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow. And seriously, that sword through the hand shit was unreal, one of my new favorite animation sequences ever.

I lost to Eric V and Havoc. I’m not sure where Eric V is in the results. Did he just whoop my ass then drop out? :razzy:

MvC2 demo on PSN this week what? http://www.capcom-unity.com/sven/blog/2009/04/27/wheres_yo_curleh_mustache_yes_mvc2_is_real

Want to play some marvel Corey??

I have SF4 TE sticks, yaaaaaay :looney:
