The Complex Combos. People Aren't Using Them. I Think They're Too Difficult.

I'm more experienced with MK, so I'm going to throw out a Cyrax combo. A pretty standard Cyrax combo would be forward triangle square, down back square R2, forward forward (dash), Circle, back forward square, down down triangle, forward (step), circle, down back triangle, back back (dash), circle, down down triangle, jump back X, back triangle, circle, down back circle. That's one combo with 35 inputs for one character (the other cyborgs share some strings, but they have different uses) that don't apply to anything else in the game. UFC 3 isn't even approaching that IMO and it's a bizarre comparison to make. Anyway, that's that tangent done.

Yeah, man.

I tried Skullgirls recently and felt like an old lady holding a controler for the first time.

I don't really branch out from the netherrealm games (MK and Injustice) and a little bit of street fighter, everything else intimidates the hell out of me.

I tried looking for them but couldn't find anything, but maybe I searched the wrong terms.

I'm actually thinking about trying it, but I know nothing about them. Would be fantastic if someone could talk me out of it. Having square+x and triangle+circle mapped to buttons sounds to good to be true.

I've been looking up those controllers too. Anyone know what macros are? I keep seeing the word and have no idea what it means

One button that reads as multiple inputs. For example, I have a few macros set on my PC for strategy games so I can press 1 button that reads as me having pressed ctrl+1. I imagine for console it'd be one button reads as L1+ square and stuff like that.

that would be awesome for uppercuts in this game.

Those controllers would cost a **** ton of $$$$.

I was considering buying an Xbox Elite controller but couldn’t bring myself to spend that amount of $$$$ on a single controller.
