zircon Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Haha, it's amazing that you haven't played ANY street fighter and you're that good. You're seriously a natural. Like I said, I cleaned up Blankas (even in ranked matches) online in HDR. Quote

Like I said, I cleaned up Blankas (even in ranked matches) online in HDR. Thanks man :3 Just wait until my FightPad arrives! 360 gamepads are... so-so. FillYourHeart. Add me. Xbawks Liev. Friended. But now I seriously gotta sleep, it's 2:15AM here Some other day! Quote
djpretzel Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 http://www.sirlin.net/blog/2009/2/22/a-few-things-about-street-fighter-4.html That sums it up for me, so far. Quote
Malaki-LEGEND.sys Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 I love destroying these Ryu and Ken whores left and right. Ken goes for that hurricane kick fire dragon punch, I block it all then throw the fucker. Works EVERY time. What's even better is that since I know Guile, I know how to fight him. Same process with his flash kick. I always get a cackle out of ruining their strategy. Also, I wanna play with you all! Quote
anosou Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 http://www.sirlin.net/blog/2009/2/22/a-few-things-about-street-fighter-4.htmlThat sums it up for me, so far. That made me scared and confused. And happy. At least I knew of most things he mentioned. When I get my FightPad it's game-mastering-time. Quote
Malaki-LEGEND.sys Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Another nifty side effect of all my goofing around is that eventually, my opponents stop using certain moves/combos based on the fact that I counter every time. Great way to ween down their battle strength. For example, focus defend against hadoukens to recover health and close the distance, the aformentioned throws. You'll psych 'em out. Quote
Global-Trance Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Oh so with everyone getting giddy about killing scrubs, at least people are figuring out the rules and how not to be entirely dumb. This is somewhat relieving. Quote
Bigfoot Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Playing Guile serves two purposes, he owns, and if you're lucky your opponent will throw out a special and you will catch Guile's dumbfounded facial expression firsthand. Haha, his face is the best. Also, I've yet to fight another Guile online. I'm so bad at this game. Quote
Arek the Absolute Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 I really wish there was a way to record your matches. Holy shit I am doing some great shit with li. Quote

k-wix Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Did anyone know you can play any music you want while fighting in the Ps3 version? I Just discovered this. Load up the browser in-game and pick any song you have on your ps3 and it replaces the in-game music. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work for online matches But everything else is fair game. Looks like it's time to load up HD Remix on my Ps3 >.> Quote
BardicKnowledge Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Rolls are always good. I love mindtricking with the shortest rolls only to stop right in front of someone and electrocute their asses. Also, since I have no clue about anything pre-SFIV I can't say much ;P Lag might have been a small issue.. Dunno. I didn't feel much but I'm not a blocker One of the key Blanka strategies in HDR was to vary roll distance between hitting, and stopping short --> facebite. Replacing that with an immediate electricity in SF4 makes sense, as Blanka's facebite throw really sucks now in comparison.

zircon Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 I think they really buffed Blanka in SF4, though. Being able to do the hop easily using just one button is great. A PPP electricity is absolutely massive in terms of range. His rolls are now extremely safe - you can't punish a miss easily at all, like you could in HDR. Meanwhile, it seems like Fei Long really got nerfed. His Rekkas simply are NOT safe if they get blocked, even though they're pretty fast now. His CW also evidently doesn't hit overhead anymore (?!!?!) and has weaker priority than it used to. As if he wasn't weak enough already. Time to switch mains Quote
BardicKnowledge Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 ^You could try switching to Abel, as his rekka-like chain is actually good. The tier list as we're used to it from HDR is completely changed around -- it'll be interesting to see what the pros have to say after a few weeks/months with the game. Quote
zircon Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Yeah, Abel seems pretty fun so far. It's interesting though, on the SRK forums, people are saying Fei could be close to top-tier because of his focus attack (massive range). The Tenshin thing doesn't combo into his Ultra and people are on the fence about that also, but it does potentially seem useful, we'll have to see what people do with it. Personally, I think it's too slow and finicky to do. EX chicken wing is apparently awesome... maybe I won't give up yet. Quote
Raziellink Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Haha, his face is the best. Also, I've yet to fight another Guile online. I'm so bad at this game. I'm a Guile player. Abel also. All i've seen so far is nothing but shoto's. Maybe one Vega or Blanka's, and i've played over 200 matches. :S Quote
Malaki-LEGEND.sys Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Yeah, I'm seeing an intense amount of Ryus and Kens everywhere. A Balrog and a Cammy every so often, and the rare Guile. I'm getting much better the more I spend time with Sakura(yeah, I'm a semi-ansatsu), but what can I say? I love the girl's moves. Quote
Global-Trance Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Another "I'm awesome at this game" thread. Quote
DjSammyG Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 I've been up against mostly akumas, actually. Managed to beat a couple with Dan. I am dedicating myself to maining him. Quote
Bleck Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Why is Gen's Gekiro impossible to time for the full attack? Quote
The Derrit Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 I would say "ocr tourney for funsies" but the last time that hapepened it didn't work Quote
AmazinJason Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 I've been up against mostly akumas, actually. Managed to beat a couple with Dan. I am dedicating myself to maining him. /cheer Dan is awesome, it's simple to find joke characters in games like ssbb, but rarely do you see one in street fighter. (Birdie should never be mentioned, and T-hawk is a joke in himself) He's quite the fun character to play though, two-inch hadoukens and the ability to taunt in the air ftw! Quote
Flare4War Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Man, I am in love with Chun li. Incredible aren't they.. Quote
djpretzel Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 /cheer (Birdie should never be mentioned, and T-hawk is a joke in himself) Don't say that around Larry... he's been rockin' a mean T.Hawk on HDR for quite awhile now... Quote
