enjoy another year of living you metal bastard

Just because "the hardcore" haven't solved the problem doesn't mean a new solution is better just because it's new. This P2P system solves nothing and creates more problems. Case in point, Quake Live. It uses a skill based match making system that is supposed to solve the problem of "huge skill level disparities". It doesn't work at all. People still complain because other people are "too good". There are still botters who are running up the leaderboards. People don't really talk unless it's to berate someone for being too good or not good enough. And then add the fact that people are now complaining about not enough maps and how they want new game types. How are things better? However all of these problems are forgivable for Quake Live because it's in beta. They are trying to fix these problems, and moreover when they come out of beta they will release with dedicated server support because in the end dedicated servers are the best option we have at the moment for pc shooters. I'm not saying it's the best solution we will ever have, but I have yet to see any evidence once so ever that P2P is anything but inferior.

Then let us be thankful you don't aren't in charge of any game development. Cheating isn't going away on pc titles, people still cheat with VAC and they will cheat with the new system. The "problem" of insular communties will be replaced with the problem of dealing with thousands of 12 year olds calling me a fag every time I kill them, which is exactly how it works when I play on Xbox Live. Huge skill level disparities isn't a problem. As long as your game has some semblance of depth, there will be huge skill level disparities.

JoeFu knows his stuff, he is 100% right and I can't believe how quick people are to accept a worse setup for online gaming. This isn't something like "oh you don't know how it will be until it comes out" things, we got away from P2P FPS playing for a reason. The only logical reason why IW is doing this is for money and control. Yeah I know "ALL COMPANYS WANT TO MAKE MONEY" but that doesn't change the fact that the game will be worse because of it.

Sign me up for this shit, Terran

hey who found out about my secret strategy

I'm not entirely sure why you should have to stick with one race if random is allowed.

Alex Valle vs Justin Wong SF4 money match at evo I'd say theres lots of hype.

I'd totally be down for this.

bleck you really are the worst poster when it comes to anything video game related

pretty much if you love roller coasters ohio is the place you wanna come to at least once to ride everything at cedar point

hey hey to be fair it was final fantasy 11 not 8

It's not JUST about hours played, it's also about being able to learn from your mistakes proper competition etc. etc. If you have a person on one side who spent 40 hours just playing his friends and a person on the other side who spent 40 hours at the arcades in japan playing really good people and being able to watch first hand what great players do, the second person will win every time over the first person.

All you people talking about cheapness and what not should go here and read. It's a bunch of articles written by Seth Killian, who works at Capcom now.

An arbitrary line of definition that exists only in your mind.

He's not THAT op, he won't be banned any time soon so I don't think it's fair to say that anyone who does good with Sagat is only doing so because Sagat is the best character. (unlike Akuma in HD Remix who is banned from Evo and probably any other major tournament now that Evo banned him)

Just want everyone to know, this is a legit Zangief tactic for real life play, when you land from an spd just green hand and immediately spd and if you time it right and they weren't doing a reversal they are getting dropped on their head again.

yes but no one ever tried to impersonate me

You can get by with a lot less execution in SF4 than in AC but if you are really into the execution stuff there are a ton of links that require timing within the 2-3 frame range that can really increase the damage you do in combos, depending on what character you use. Also GT, to fight Gokuen you have to get ONE perfect and THREE ultra finishes with a character you've already beaten arcade mode with. I think you have to have Akuma and have already beat arcade mode with im as well. Don't get anymore than one perfect or you will fight Akuma. Just set it to one round and easiest difficulty.
