Been asking this everywhere, but has anyone had experience with getting the new Madcatz sticks (the Pro series) to work with PCs? Mine is identifying as a "Madcatz Fightstick Neo" and says it can't find drivers. Apparently the V.S model works fine.

Trykt posted:ITT goons get bandwagony as gently caress. I would disagree that it's easier to get into than other games: the learning curve is definitely not as steep, sure, but it will teach you NOTHING of value in the broader sense apart from how to whiff punish. AA is poo poo, so you can't AA. Punishing is moot because everyone uses safe moves anyway (donkey kick, Rolento's anything, etc). Zoning is pointless because of all the brainless anti-FB tech that's out there. I could go on forever. It merely provides the illusion of depth. Not to mention all the things new players can use as a crutch to avoid actually learning the game (gems, auto-combos, and so on). Other games can teach you universal skills quicker AND better. As for the game itself, I was in the crowd at Shadowloo Showdown watching the best players in the world go at it. It was boring as poo poo. All the hype you heard from the crowd at the end was because people won lots of money in sidebets, and more universally, people were cheering because it was the last match of SFxT for the weekend. People were booing at the very mention of it. Tournament organisers were embarrassed to have to run it. It's just awful. It was a black hole of hype in an otherwise great day.

I can attest that he pretty much talks endlessly about his sweet grappler setups and lands approximately none of them because at the end of the day, he'll empty jump and churn butter. I just nod and smile because it's easier than 50-0ing him. I've found it quite odd that there's a legitimate set of social standards by which to operate when you're a part of the FGC. Then I realised the kinds of people I'm often around at said meets and it suddenly dawns on me: it's necessary. On one hand you can meet some genuinely good people, but on the other hand, you're exposed to everything your mother ever warned you about, and more. And seriously, shower. If you follow no other commandment in the FGC Bible then follow this one. You could be the nicest guy in the world, but if you smell like SFxT plays, I'm keeping a very wide berth.

I would seriously consider contacting Gamerbee on Facebook or some such. He's a totally awesome guy and I have no doubt he'd at least attempt to help out when it comes to good places to play. He speaks English well so if your Mandarin isn't strong it's no biggie. From what he's said, the TW scene is a little odd, so it's no surprise that you're having a tough time.

WWE All Stars is an amazing drunken fighting game. If you don't have a console, then SF2: Rainbow Edition is the go. As someone who attends tournaments and pretends he's alright at SF4, even I think they are the only correct answers. Also I am to OMF 2097 what Trykt is to Ryu. I honour this mention with a custom title change.

That's not really a "general" question - it's a very SF4-specific question, believe it or not. You're playing a game in which links are pretty much the bread and butter of combos. Although they exist in other FGs, they're really prevalent in SF4 - so much so that you can't really play the game properly unless you know how to do them. So if you find links onerous or stupid, then perhaps you're playing the wrong game and should explore your options a little more. SF4 has "plinking" - if you're using a controller this is quite hard but if you're on a stick, then it's worthwhile to look up a few videos on it, because it'll make the windows for links artificially wider (and thus easier). The first links are hardest because you need to learn to "feel" where the gaps are. Every character has different normals/specials and so knowing when to hit the button is a bit counter-intuitive in parts. The best advice I can give is this: if the linked move (cr.mp in this case) doesn't come out, you hit the button too early. If it comes out but didn't combo, it's too late. Adjust your timing accordingly and eventually you'll know when to go for it.

mango sentinel posted:I'm going to Japan in a few days. Any recommendations on which arcade(s) I should check out while I'm in Tokyo? Shinjuku South is, iirc, the best of the lot. There are two arcades that are readily accessible from the station and both are good, but South is markedly better. You're likely to find top level players there across most games. Akihabara has a ton of awesome arcades: my fav was HEY on Chuo Dori because they had all the rad old poo poo that sometimes cost 100¥ for two credits. There was also a healthy SF4 scene there if that's your deal. Big Box at Takadanobaba is huge, but doesn't have the population it used to. Cool to check out, but it's a crapshoot as to whether you'll get what you want. Most boroughs have a decent arcade though, and few are bad. Even running down to the arcade local to where you're staying is awesome. I stayed in a little ryokan in Ikebukuro and the local arcade there was a tidy little Taito Station next to a noodle joint. It was my nightly trip if we weren't going out. Just be prepared to deal with smoking. Lots of it. Enjoy your trip, rear end in a top hat!

Can someone diagnose my stick? It's a Hori Hayabusa Silent and it's not registering cardinal directions on sufficiently quick inputs. This is a basic crLP xx rekka string with Fei Long starting from a crouchblock position and I think I get this exact input about 1 in 5 times. End result: no cancel. I just lost a match because of it and I'm very close to giving up on this thing. Hori customer support is garbage and I don't want to void my warranty while my complaint is pending, so if anyone has this stick, can they test to see if it's my model specifically, or if it's all sticks like this? I can't figure out what would be causing it, but it's really irritating (insofar as I've bought a very expensive paperweight) edit: it's not the game: I've done this in the PS4 version of USF4 as well as UNIEL and P4U. UNIEL was particularly interesting because it says that I hit DB and DF within 1 frame of each other.

Serious answer: it's probably not worth pursuing fighting games if you're the type of person that can't do an SRK after an hour's practice. This is because you're probably the kind of person who will try exactly the same thing for an hour (despite being shown the solution) and then complain that the game is wrong for not letting you do a SRK. That's not boring elitism, that's just saving someone the torture of feeling perpetually inadequate. Because the minute they're faced with a real fight against a real person who throws fireballs/antiairs properly/throws/runs away/rushes down/whatever they'll persist for like 4 more games doing EXACTLY the same thing and then say "gently caress this poo poo this game is cheap this game is bullshit that character is broken my character is busted i know i can win but this loving GAME" etc and they'll quit. Rising Thunder solved the former problem, sure, but they actually exacerbated the latter by not even having a single player mode to develop delusions of grandeur over. omf2097 remains the best robot fg qed

No what I'm saying is that the person who blames finger puzzles for losing is gonna come up against the other thousand reasons why they're losing when they lose and be equally frustrated. It has nothing to do with talent: it's all attitude. Think of every game that has tried to bridge the gap between skill levels: either the gulf gets wider than it ever was (RT) or it's just a stupid loving mess that makes no sense (SFxT). Modern FGs fix problems that never existed (SF5) and it's loving stupid. People need to understand that the learning curve in a FG is ridiculously steep no matter what and that the only way to overcome it is to keep playing, be self-reflective and actually acknowledge the mistakes they're making with the intent to fix them And to come full circle, if the only aim is to have fun without being conscious of what you're "meant" to do then you could play literally any fighting game and just button mash.
