i think the chun li ll loop is way easier if you're sliding. something like plinking c.fierce~c.forward, then left thumb on short and slide from short to rh and press forward 4 times into ll extender. took me about a day to do it consistently.

but sliding is apparently terrible for your hands so ... pianoing :p?

Got to be all hardcore like those Marvel 2 players back in the day. Wear them special gloves.

I'll try it tomorrow, since I don't have a silent stick, so I'll be waking people up if I practice now. How is it bad for your hands? Though I have seen and read about people wearing gloves, so maybe that helps their mash method of choice.

When in October is Omega mode getting added to USF4 again?

No, no Art of Fighting game sadly. We had a vote for the final game and KOF almoooost won but then the Skullgirls community descended upon our poll. :p

We are gonna have Windjammers though :D

Windjammers is so good.

Based Data East.

That more than makes up for the lack of SNK games, but it would've been nice to have some AoF2 or 3 casual matches :p

damn that ATP live was beautiful. despite some of the controversy surrounding him,
aris is one of those dudes who makes this community better just by existing



i think ky's new stuff looks kinda cool....

venoms replacement for dubious curve is less so.

give this dude back lightning balls.
 
Well fighting games and anime are basically the same thing.

Now that I think about it that guy kind of looks like Deejay in the end. Makes sense.

I rather not know the truth sometimes.

I guess I kind of feel sorry for Deejay players.

Even anime's got it out for them.

EDIT: Ok, that was out of line. I apologize to any Deejay players that took offense to my post.

You know your anime, learn to accept it and become it. You merely adopted it for this short moment, I was born in it, molded by it.
I can tell a disciple when I see one and you are the chosen messiah to lead anime into its golden age in FGC-Weekly with Enzo as your Judas.

Most of the anime talk is people complaining about it. So that would be funny.

Edit: ky's new stuff is cool, but not at the cost of removing all his ac mechanics and moves that made him super well rounded and now he is lacking again
 
Just asking, why do you hate anime?

I don't hate anime.

I just don't like anime talk! I feel like... you know there's anime threads for that. LMAO. I have watched a few anime before and quite enjoy them. However reading people talk about anime in thread that has nothing to do with anime annoys me. And I hate anime terms thrown into everyday text (on the internet at least anyways). Like when Zhi was doing commentary and he kept saying "gaijin" it doesn't make you sound smarter. Just nerdier and more annoying. Or when people do commentary for fighting games and scream anime terms like "bankai" See I even know what that means! I don't hate anime I just hate anime culture. Don't even get me started on people who obess over "waifus"

I see. I hate when people, especially the chat, types or says animmmmeeeeeee whenever a character does his/her special that looks anime in a way. The terms waifus, baka, and other terms are used all over the internet lol. I like anime but I don't explore the culture of it.

It's okay I don't like awkward weeabos/otakus myself. Pretty sure that's normal.

Same here but I don't think this thread is that bad about it...it's mostly about the games themselves from what I've seen. That said if you are allergic to anime girl avatars it's gonna be a hard road.
 
I'm confused since as far as I can see the only person to bring up anime on this page was you.

I was originally going to post about how close that video clip was to fighting games in terms of mechanics (juggle combo) but I saw your post and thought I would try to be funny instead (I failed apparently).

To be fair most if not all of the anime talk I've seen in FGW threads has been from people disparaging "anime" games and the like. Forgive me if I missed posts where people were talking about their favourite anime/recommendations or things similar.

Just in case you weren't kidding (and if you were, apologies) but "gaijin" isn't an "anime term" anymore than "gringo" came from Speedy Gonzales cartoons. Which it didn't, of course.

I'm pretty sure he wasn't using the term to make himself "sound smarter."

edit: any and all complaining about "anime" in a fighting game thread is always eye-rolling shit. Almost the entire genre (including everything Capcom's contributed to it) is "anime."

What does that have to do with talking about anime? I don't need to know about your opinions of your waifu during Daigo vs XXX.

Anime is for watching. Not playing. - Count Blackule

as far as i know this is the depth of the anime discussion here...fake arguments about how anime is wrong or "lol marvel IS anime" or whatever. i dont see people talking bout waifu shit.

but heretic is right in some regard in that if you are gonna talk about actual anime (not airdashers...) maybe it'd be better to do that somewhere else. i mean we did just recently have a conversation about which fruit flavor soda was best but at least that didnt lead to those same tired anime arguments.
 
What are you even talking about

Commentary wise. I can't watch streams anymore unless it's a known commentator, or it's on mute. I don't get why they keep putting these awkward kids on the mic, or I just have bad luck and tune it at the worst times. I have watch about a grand total of less than 10 hours worth of FGC stream within the last year.


That's how I felt when people were talking about manga the other day

And when I think about Evo next year

I'm gonna get bopped so hard, I know it ;~;

Train harder! And by harder I mean your liver! It's going to need all the help it can get.
 
I'm not entirely sure why this conversation is happening since no one was discussing anime on this page in the first place but I'll leave it be.

Every time I see ky's game play in xrd I feel depressed

His new stuff just reminds me of a half assed Venom thing.

I only spent five minutes with Ky in the PS3 port but he looks pretty fun to play in Xrd. Zoning with stun edge/grinder stun edge and making use of YRC to close the distance in tandem with his projectiles looks pretty rewarding if performed correctly. And the charged stun edge seems to do a better job of this when you're close up after a knockdown.

I guess it's something I could only understand if I was heavily invested in Ky's previous iterations.

After that Gaming thread about the move lists I bailed on this thread, knowing there was going to be some bullshit. Let that shit just be a reminder of how bad the perception of the FGC can be, and y'all can't get jebaited into proving them right.

Bad news time:

EviLore hasn't responded to my PM. I am hurt. Displaced, even. However, RockTurtle (who didn't respond back to my PMs, damnit!) requested his nomination to be changed so that Riposte be the next to do it (I was originally just going to go down the line like I always do when people have multiple nominations). So are you up and able, Riposte?

Maybe this is weird, but reading this inspired a bit of dread in me. Probably because I haven't touched a fighting game in awhile (unless Phantom Dust counts lol). There's no reason to turn it down, but I don't know if I can give good answers to all the questions. But sure, whatever.

Others have declined because they haven't touched fighting games in a while, and if you get nominated again later you can still do it if you want.

Even if you haven't touched them for a while, I feel like that also could give a different, reflective perspective on things, that isn't necessarily worse.

Either way, no pressure.
