2nd match I won, I won the first round with a perfect and second convincingly and just got a barrage of emails that said "omg retard". Hooray for online play!
Most of the times on the PC of SSF4:AE I got accusations of cheating for using a stick instead of a keyboard. |

I've had this game 24 hours and still haven't played a match yet. We had a Mass Effect 3 release yesterday and I volunteered my 360. Just dicked around in training before I passed out.

Agreed. I do random Pandora mode. Doesn't work, but I don't care.

So into Jin and Asuka's Tekken stuff I forget I'm playing essentially an alternate SF game, and people are jumping in like mad and I'm doing nothing about it. Far cry from my well timed anti-air low fierce punches from my SF4 days. Gotta respect the complete game here.

In addition to that, Seth Killian said that they actually nerfed ant--air gameplay to encourage jumping in more often.
King is fun, but he's got so many different grabs and special moves that I kind of get lost and forget things. I can see the same thing happening with Asuka. Will get better with training, but at the moment I get destroyed with King. Messing around with Julia, and I like what I see. Bob too. |

Anybody feels the Tekken side of the roster amounts to a better fighting game than SF4? Ground game mixups are way fun.

Biggest things that are keeping this game from being truly great is the netcode and lack of an infinite timer.
Way too many time over finishes. The lag isn't too bad, but in a game like this it can totally screw up your timing. Especially when you've spent the last 20 minutes in training mode. I blow so many combo opportunities because the game is a split second behind what I'm used to in the lab. If they can fix those two things I would put it above SSF4, but at the moment, it's #2 in my book. |

I'm already expecting my brother to use a Vega/Rolento team, when I get the game this weekend.
What makes him annoying? Still hoping the couch co-op thing can be fixed. I was looking forward to taking a Zangief/Vega team online. |

He's like Ibuki, in that he has so many different ways to come at you. Pretty nasty mix up game too. Maybe if I use him a bit, I'll get used to him a little more.
Heihachi and Juri is my go to team right now, though I'm starting to get fairly good with Julia and Nina. |

Me and my bro enjoyed some games with Figs and some new guy whose name escapes me. A few times outs. I will never stop using Pandora.

I think Rolento will definitely get nerfed in the sure to come update. He can just chew you up in so many ways.

Cowtipper. I think there was one match the entire time we played, where we were both on the same page. Besides that, every match either I was sucking, or he was sucking.

If everyone's using Rolento online, he wont get nerfed.

Yeah I met him on launch night trying out the partner search. He's still learning, but he's a good sport.

This will be the first game I use custom soundtracks for, because the music is just that god damn awful.

I have a mix of all the trailer songs and some 'similar stuff' that I play with the game. I do like some of the game's remixes, though.

Maybe Capcom has made the music purposely less than fantastic because they plan to sell alternate music as DLC? SFIII had music DLC so I don't think it's too far fetched to think they might do it again. Also, Capcom are supposedly releasing "Quick Combos" as DLC. According to some guy on GameFAQs that has a link to Shoryuken that I didn't read. |

I doubt they made 'bad' music with intent to sell. If there was only 4 stage tracks then I'd wonder about music DLC, but this is a case of subjectivity. Somebody out there may love the soundtrack for instance.
Yeah, there's going to be DLC combos. Like the CPU DLC on Marvel, the jokes on whoever actually gets it. |

You actually could play 1v1 if you want. Would be on the honor system though, so you could only do it with friends.

I said this about SF4 and I'll say it again, modifiers for online lobbies would be a great idea for any fighting game.
You could disable gems, supers, cross arts, tagging. Would be pretty neat, I think. |

Yeah, but given how the damage is upped, battles won't last long. That's the reason I dislike it. Same as MvC3. Get tagged with a couple of easy combos and there's 3/4 of your health gone. Except here, you don't lose a character, you lose the round.

True. It sucks because we know it's possible to do, what with the arcade mode bosses and all the 2v1 matches in mission mode.

Well, the Rufus vs Bob trailer showed them eating a meal with each other to a song called "I'm In Love With You". Pretty sure Ryu was about to come clean to Ken after the meal.

Seems colors are already on disc as well.
