I KNOW. I was laughing so hard when you were bitching while spamming the sweeps with Guile. So funny

I was holding down+back the whole time and was like WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?!

I mean I could have easily jumped away, but I was so god damn dumbfounded as to why nothing was working that I just sat there holding it, hoping it would magically work. Got another controller somewhere here, so I'm gonna see if that's the issue.

Nope. You can only invite one other person. It's really stupid.

Also, the gen knifey hand thing vs Balrog quicky jab punch was chuckle worthy. Was sitting there trying to think what balrog has that could get around that, but I don't know him well enough.

Also, didn't know you could hear me. Thought my mic wasn't working.

ROXER'S A NINJA

There was a family thing going on and I was in no position to hog the 'Box for online sessions. Sunday does look good, though.

The last session between me and RoXy saw him gaining up, we left off with 50/50 win ratios. Very different from a week ago when locked him down, that or I was slipping more than I should have.

My quest to make Vega dangerous is getting along but I still have hiccups I need to iron out. Cammy's Cammy as usual. Sakura is moving up my ranks, and I'm still shamed for it.

Yeah, I really havn't touched cammy, guile, fei long, or gen, despite wanting to get good with them. Focus lately has been on Abel as usual, but also the previously mentioned charge characters, rose, gouken, and ken. Was learning C. Viper for a while, but I havn't touched her in months, and I prolly suck with her now.

also, kalyx wtf we have to play. Like 3 times now I have sent an invite just as you log off.

Playing this makes me want to get all those street fighter figures they were selling a few years ago, and put them on top of the entertainment center in classic victory pose fashion, for I am a huge nerd at heart. Do they still make those, and did they make everyone yet?

Bought the sagat one for the computer desk a few years back, as it looked pretty bitchin.

We'll dance soon enough.

And did you just list Ken, Rose, and Gouken as charge characters? Am I missing something?

I think he meant them plus Ken, Rose and Gouken.

Okay.

G has got it together.

I'M HOLDING BACK FOR OVER 2 SECONDS! WHY WON"T HE HADUKEN!?

My bad, man. I wasn't the only one playing. Basically been alternating between local 2 player and passing the controller around unlocking people unlocking people. We got Gen, Cammy, Dan, Sakura and Rose thus far.

This game is awesome.

Also, fucking fuck Balrog got improved.

Yeah, definitely noticed that too.

AMIGA SF2: Hold down for 2 seconds then up to do a dragon punch.

ME GOING DOWN A FRIENDS HOUSE TO PLAY SOME SF2 TURBO ON SNES: Destroyed for charging with Ryu. Gay ass Amiga version :(

Yeah, but Gen blew so I left him alone.

When does that replay thing come out?

Who knows, man. Capcom is teasing.

Played with RoXer some more and had a chance to play some pretty terrible Cammy and Guile. We went 50/50 before there was an internet outage in my area. I did play a few games while on the phone, though.

Fuck. Can't seem to connect to anyone unless I'm hosting the sumbitch.

Had a nice little sesh with Funky tonight. We're pretty well matched, but he pulled it out 7 fights to 6. Just couldn't defend his Blanka.

Yeah, that was mad even. Just about shat myself when I picked Balrog and then you choose a shadowed character. We hit the vs screen and it's Gouken. 100% rape from then on. Just got Akuma, so I'll probably get Gouken right away and get to learning his moves. El Fuerte to while I'm at it. Had no idea what you were doing that whole match.

lol you and me both. Total mashing with Elf.

I cannot wait to pull you apart and piece you together the wrong way. :mad:

I have to add: in the next update/patch, Capcom has announced that they will start listing disconnect percentages. That's a good thing. Though I kinda wish that they would deduct BP for disconnects.

Finaly played both Kalyx and Fignuts... too bad I was having such a shit day. Throws, focus attacks and special moves were not happening for me at all today.

Even if I had my act together, Kalyx would have raped me over all. His Cammy is deadly and he's quite likely the best SF player I've seen in the last 5 years.

Figburt has some skills too, but we must clash again before I accept him as the victor of Jeanpunchfest 09. Fucking 2-11. :mad:

:roll:

Also, once the replay system comes out, I think I'll set up a TPWW tourney.

I'm assuming that you can upload your replays to the web. That way, we can all see eachother's matches. If that option isn't on there, I might as well set it up next week.

Keep in mind I haven't seen all that many SF players in the last 5 years. Most of the people I've played in that time are friends who are scrubs. When was the last time you hit up an arcade?

Kalyx knows his shit and is a great technical player. he knows how to take advantage of Cammy's (apparently non-existent) recovery frames on some of her moves that would make you think twice about revesals. The best thing to do is to be patient against him and to pick your shots wisely, for he wont hesistate to capitalize on your mistakes. Its easy to frustrate him ONCE he's out of his element tho. However it wont take long for him to get back on his feet so mix it up

It's funny you mention her 'apparently non-existent' recovery frames cause you are making a shot against SRK or some community like that. They make tier-lists that are mostly accurate, but after such gems as "Ultras are gay" and "SC4's Taki's low tier", you can't take them that seriously.

I think, with all of my heart, that Cammy is the best SF character ever. Conversely, I'm thinking of dropping Ken to 'light-play' status because a) he's so boring and routine (except for his kickass Ultra) and b) people who play him online make me like him less. I don't agree that his dragonpunch, which is multihit on Fierce, should beat everything. Cammy's Cannon Spike beats a lot of shit too, but at one hit I think it's pretty fair for a girl with no fireballs. I love Cammy.

Vega's getting more play time from me as well.

Cammy's definetly on my" If You Spot Her on the Street, Murder her ass" list. She's got so many options than most other character and her EX hooligan tends to freeze me up sometimes. I gotta be always alert when im up against her. However i hardly even see cammy online and if i do its some idiot who doesnt know what hes doing.

Fuck SRK. they're a bunch of fuckin crybabies and assholes who're full of themselve( most of them if not all) They take that shit way too seriously. Remember Mr.Fun? yeah he was cool what the hell happened to him?

So your dropping Ken huh, You Should Give him more credit. I've yet to see him used effectively. Vega's also on my Special list, He's a big problem for my Ryu.

God I'm really gonna have to get back into ths seriously to have any chance against your Vega, though. Worse than your Cammy.

I don't think Vega's worse than Cammy. I know he can be annoying and agile, but Cammy's much more efficient. I work less with Vega. I guess it's the feeling RoXy has when he picks Sagat.

which is rare

BTW, crouch Jabs beat Canon Drill for some crazy reason. A buddy of mine started doing it after I pissed him off with my toe games (crouch weak kicks) and it actually worked for him.

RoXy

sGandy



Whooped on Funky earlier. Felt bad for him. I kept hooligan throwing the last match.

I don't think he was pleased.

lol

Street Fighter 4 is SERIOUS BUSINESS.

This Fucking NAT bullshit is pissing me off

Yeah, you're not the first guy cut off due to it. 'm gonna take a stab at solving the situation because it is getting real old.

Put your 360 into a DMZ

DMZ???:?:

Yeah, it turns off the firewall for any devices in the DMZ. Just put it in the config of your router. For help on that, just put in your routers model and DMZ into google and it should bring up how to do it.

Very nice. Is it safe?

Technically, no. But I doubt very seriously anything would happen.

Oh.

Gotta pass then. Not worth an entire... whatever may happen. Thanks anyway, I'll go the Open NAT route.

I don't know what any of those words meant

It's as safe as anything putting your console in a DMZ, because they can't hack shit

Finally got Gouken. Fuck. All those guides on how to get him are wrong except 1.

They're not clear on the fact that you accomplish the required tasks in the first 5 rounds (2and a half fights if you're using standard 3 round fights) in order exactly like this:

Round 1: First Attack, Perfect
Round 2: First Attack, Perfect
Round 3: First Attack, Ultra Finish
Round 4: First Attack, Ultra Finish
Round 5: First Attack, Ultra Finish
Rest of the fights: No losing rounds

I didn't do it in order, did a couple of ultras first, then the perfects, then the ultras.

love it

Wow.

Championship Mode comes next week. Free download. Tournament Mode and Replays are the big draws here.

Thanks Kalyx, you have made me a very erect man. I thought it was still some ways off

All tournaments are ranked only, so no TPWW tournament :'(

wtf kind of gay shit is that?

yeah, that is pretty horrible. :(

You know what? FUCK DHALSIM

LOL

Can't play online right now. Kinda being lazy about the Gold Account upgrade. My last session was an awesome series with Khuntry.

My problem isn't fighting him, it's playing him. For the life of me I can't get past Seth with him and he's the last assclown to go before I unlock Seth.

He's... soooo... slowwwwwwwwwww! Can't can't counter or dodge or FA for shit with him.

Plus I'm getting real tired of Seth grabbing me through my ultra or just backing up til the fucker disappears.

Yoga can't-fight-for-shit. :mad:

Just put it on easy and sweep his ass over and over.

Easiest->Roundhouse

Havn't played this in weeks.

Damn...

Yeah, fuckin sick play by Daigo in particular. His Ryu is so calm. Must be scary to play against.

Championship Upgrade is out.

Got it queued. I'm off to Best Buy for points cards and DVDs.

I'm not quite sure I get the replay system. I uploaded one after I won my tournament, but it's not saved and I don't know how to download other peoples matches.

Think it uploads on the server only. I haven't used the function yet but people are kinda pissed at how limited it is compared to Halo 3's system. Some people say it's on par with 3rd Strike's system! Sad to hear.

After not playing for weeks, I am terrrrrrrible. Won my 11th Champ 1st round match. I shouldn't have. I was promptly beaten thereafter.

I'm playing if anyone wants a match or two.

Falloftheage

You guys and your GTs being different from you TPWW usernames!

I stopped using live for awhile and I kinda forgot to cancel my account and when I came back, I couldn't use my old one for live.

We all should add "TPWW" in our profiles. Maybe in the bio section.

that sounds like a good idea

Figured out the replays, they're on the Leaderboards section for some reason.

Just upped a pretty epic fight against a high-ranked Ryu who beat me in the semis only 3 tournaments earlier.

Do you lose BP for not starting a fight when you Fight Request turned on? I noticed I lost some and my Disconnect % went up while I was on the phone... Pretty fuckin ridiculous.

I doubt you lose anything for refusing a fight.

Okay I just won a fuckin match and as soon as I back out into the main menu screen it lowers my BP and my Disconnect % went up again. Fuck this online mode already.

Play Championship mode.

Jesus Christ...

What am I looking at? Web designer should be shot.

It's a SF flash parody movie. Like 3458634568 people had a hand in making it. Some pretty crazy shit in there. And yeah, newgrounds has a ridiculous layout. The link to watch the movie is on the right.

If anyone's bored, here's a 3 part documentary about "The Street Fighter Years" by Capcom and presented by Domonik Diamond. A bunch of C-List British celebrities discuss everything from the 90's. Street Fighter only really gets mentioned in part 3.

Fuck, finally got around doing more ranked matches. Are they matching us on skill or what? Because I had like 100BP and I'm fighting guy with like 3000BP. Winning some, losing others but it seems like there's no real skill matching here. Like I'll blow a guy out of the water in one fight then get 12 hit ko'd the next fight.

The Championship Mode is a better indication of skill.

Lots of Guile fags who turtle too. What is this, SF2? Raped one guy with Blanka because it seemed like he didn't know you can just jump straight up over Sonic Booms and walk forward. No defence once I was in close. Sad.

Like I'm not fuckin' Daigo. I'm alright, but still...

Yeah, some pretentious fighters out there. It's amazing how much a player depends on you jumping forward. You stop doing that and they just become inept.
