Zyklon B Zombie posted:Is SxT really as slow as it looks? I never played SF4, but I always enjoyed watching streams of it. I tried watching some of Arturo's stream of SxT, and it was the most godawful boring fighting game I've watched. The characters are so big it seems like their pokes go across a quarter of the screen, and they have a geriatric walking pace and just slowly float through the air when jumping. The damage is also terrible, excluding infinites.

Just want to confirm, SC5 at MLG was using a pre-patch version, and the one at NCR was using a patched version... right? I didn't get to see much of the latter stream.

bleep posted:The good news is hopkicks have been nerfed a bit. The Tekken Zaibatsu forums are working on translating the change list right now. http://www.tekkenzaibatsu.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=123451 Crash has always had odd/non top tier characters being used well and even winning. I don't really like to use people in another country(where the culture ensures they get paid) with no "real" job with nothing to do but play this game as my metric for what characters are considered good... especially when they play each other all the time, that's a huge factor in Tekken type games moreso than any other imo.

Jmcrofts posted:There's no reason that 2 on 1 couldn't be reasonable, it just looks (for now) like they went too far. Reasonable by what metric? 2x1 is blasphemy for a lot of older Tag players. It makes absolutely no sense to us, nor can can we fathom how a developer will balance this correctly(they aren't) given the "balancing" we've seen over the last 5 years. It doesn't make sense to risk it because someone is too loving lazy to learn another character or doesnt like the "Tag" aspect, which is in the name of the god drat game.

PonchAxis posted:Yeah he was really vague and calm about it so when the whole "gently caress You" thing happened it took me by surprise. Regardless of the rumors, like the past two(maybe more?) streams I saw him on he was CLEARLY baked. People were trying to explain it as tired, which I bought for a bit, until his gigglefits kicked in and Ultradavid sat there like the robot-mannequin company man he is trying to trudge through commentary.

I can't stress this enough. It was so bad I was laughing at it every time it tried to get serious and eventually mashed X through everything to get the characters. The netcode is INCREDIBLY good when it works.

I have a new stick now with a sanwa in it, as well as buttons. I've had a madcatz TE before and never noticed this: When I push the stick up, kinda hard, and move it side to side I hear and feel this thump. It sounds like its rolling over something. This happens at the middle point on each side of the gate if I press hard enough or "Marvel" the stick. Does this just need to be broke in or is there something else up?

rivals posted:I've never noticed that before in new sticks or microswitch assemblies. You may want to pop it open and see if there's something going on in there. This is one response I got "in the joystick theres this washer that is nested in the black holder that holds the pcb and the gate restrictor to prevent the black holder to chip since its plastic i had that too and i just superglued the washer to the black holder so it would stop moving around"

I've heard 24mm, but I'm not sure if that applies to the normal version or just some weird SE. Does anyone here happen to know? I bet eightarc would know simply because of the partnership, I would email them.

I'm not going to whip out my engineering e-peen and start network sniffing, but SC V is pretty good at handling a lot more data at reasonable latencies. I would pay more attention to the part where he says it lags without being online.

Tokyo Slutty Gal posted:He's right in that it's still delay-based and no delay-based netcode, no matter how good, can reasonably be considered anything better than decent. The fact that the game works very well with it is another issue. Can someone please explain to me this really vaguely referenced "input buffer" that he is talking about that is "offline and online" ? He doesn't seem to be right in a single god drat thing he's saying, by the way.

Van Ishikawa posted:I think he's referring SCVs input buffer which allows you to do things like attacking on the first frame out of blockstun, making the delay based netcode not affect your counterattacks unless its extremely laggy. He's not saying the game has lag offline, but that the game is slower in general as part of the game's mechanics and design, like most "fast" attacks being somewhere around 10f(?) while in SF you have 3f jabs. I see what you are saying, and most characters were slowed down(except with Natsu having the fastest AA) but I've not noticed this buffer at all w/r/t punishment. Even considering the slowdown of most moves I haven't "felt" this "input buffer" ever... and active frames are completely separate from this buffer that he's talking about anyway, right? Even using Pyrrah now and her crazy punishment I don't see it. I also haven't seen anything about it on 8wayrun nor has anyone that plays at tourny level that I know talk about it. It could be said it's always been there, if it exists? I'd need more info than to believe this exists, such as actual metrics or statements from people good at the game.

Oh well, we can only hope Filthie(lol) & community can somehow convince Harada not to implement anything BUT 2v2 in the final release. Someone on TZ suggested making it console only, which makes a lot of sense to me because it would mean hard bans everywhere in the states because we take the queue from what is acceptable in an arcade release.

kaujot posted:I'll be buying it, even though I only ever played it once when it was a big game. I like the character designs. I loved the poo poo out of the game and due to competition only achieved scrub level. The only way to get good comp in that game was when ATL/TN came down or we came up and that's just no way to practice!! Really excited about getting a 360 and this release.
