Re:Vast...thanks, man. I've been working on my game these past three weeks. Everytime I hit a plateau, I rewind and focus up on some new tools. Right now I'm working on my fierce button combos, and responding to Focus Attacks with Tornados. I made some headway today fighting against Mo.

I also wanna add C.Viper to my arsenal, but damn if she isn't unintuitive. Dakkon abused her *** today, haha!

Unintuitive in what way?

Re: Street Fighter IV (360/PS3/PC)

Every way, honestly. She's got some tick combos, but ultimately she has really really low life, so you can't really rely on her basics. You have to be at least an intermediate Viper to win with her against anyone. Her real game is built around big combos and mind games, but the mind games don't work if you don't learn her big combos first. THe only Street Fighter style move she has is the burning knuckle thing. After that, her floor move, her burning kick, her fakes...all of that stuff is pretty original as far as SF goes.

This is evidenced by how long it took the Japanese to learn how to use her. I don't think they had her figured out until about a month ago.

Re: Street Fighter IV (360/PS3/PC)

Yeah, I noticed how she had suddenly risen to the top of a tournament tier list.

Also, I've heard it's usually pretty hard to combo into her ultra (misses and doesnt fully connect) as well as the fact she carries out the full animation even if she misses when most other fighters stop.

I can't reach 300 bp with Akuma. This is pathetic.

Championship mode update set for April 24th..couple tidbits

-Blind Select

-Battle Replay Viewer

- On PS3, viewers can watch your replay and vote in real time according to characteristics like “beautiful” or “funny.” For the nerds, you can vote once every 30 frames (that’s 2x a second!), although there is a cap to avoid total vote spamming. Replays will be ranked according to the user-submitted reviews, making it easy to find the flavor of replays you want to see.

- On X360, you can’t vote on the matches, but you can watch and then save a number of your favorites. While watching your saved matches, you’ll also have the option to turn on input commands (just like the Training Mode option), so you can see the gritty details of exactly what button and joystick inputs the top players are using to win.

There are different classes of tournaments - G3 is for beginners, and then it moves up in skill to G2, G1, and the top class is SG.

Nothing being done about plug pullers..

We got blind select but I really wanted a spectator mode with lobbies. Oh well, its free cant complain.

'Street Fighter IV' (ALL) Free Championship Mode DLC Gets Dated

http://www.worthplaying.com/article.php?sid=61793

SF IV features a mix of returning favorites (Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li etc.) along with new characters created for this game, such as Crimson Viper, Abel, El Fuerte, and Rufus. Characters and environments are rendered in stylized 3D, while the game is played in the classic 2D perspective with additional 3D camera flourishes.

Re: Street Fighter IV (360/PS3/PC)

Spectator lobbies would've been nice. But if it's free, then that's fine too. Good update

um.....actually there is.

Last, but most certainly not least, disconnecters, aka pullers, aka ragequitters, your days are numbered: If you disconnect during a match, the system will also dock you your progress in the tournament, so pullers will never be able to advance into the higher ranks of tournaments. What’s even more fun is that the system also happily displays your disconnect percentage, so if you've got a bad habit, it's right there for everyone to see.

Re: Street Fighter IV (360/PS3/PC)

championship mode looks decent looking forward to it. On a side note tho lol last night i finally got the timing down for combos. that combined with the fact im finally getting used to using an arcade stick means im now getting more into the strategy of a match and less fighting against the controls.

its a good feeling.

Anybody on 360 down to battle hit me up on xbox live GT: Joey Vast

Re: Street Fighter IV (360/PS3/PC)

I'll tell you what: The double blind selection will immediately renew my interest in this game.

**thaima1shu** · 04-18-2009, 03:14 AM

Re: Street Fighter IV (360/PS3/PC)

Does the double blind selection only apply to tournament matches though?

Re: Street Fighter IV (360/PS3/PC)

I watched all the videos posted of the matches Daigo played ... it was intense. That man has some insane reflexes.

Re: Street Fighter IV (360/PS3/PC)

daaaamn.

CoupleOfFew's Vega is really good. Stuffed my *** with just about every char I used. Only people I could beat that Vega with was Ryu and Rufus...

Look forward to playing you again. I knew I was in trouble once I saw the Vega logo. I always have a problem with Vega, and I only have two of those logos(Ryu and Akuma...I'm like 1 away from Rufus though)

Series was at like 12-8 or something in my favor. very good games. My palm is burning...

**CoupleOfFew1** · 04-20-2009, 05:16 PM

Re: Street Fighter IV (360/PS3/PC)

Yea those were some good games man. Those were the first times that I fought against a Rufus, Fei Long, or Gen and I need to get better at those matchups...but ur good with just about everyone. Other than Vega, I'm only decent with Ryu. Everyone else is iffy. Damn, I wish this game had lobbies so we could get a nice room going.
