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

I've been hovering around 2000 or so for about a week or so now. It seems like I always win 4-5 in a row, gaining about 100 BP in the process, then I lose once and I lose 100 points.

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

I swear there's a glitch in this game with the difficulty. My friend and I were playing through the single player to unlock some guys a couple weeks ago and once we had to start using guys we never use, we got the bright idea to switch the difficulty down to easiest. Thing was, Seth was still as hard as ever and we spent a good hour on him with C Viper before finally beating him. I decided to unlock guys on my own game last night and started off on the easiest setting and proceeded to breeze through the game until I got Akuma (haven't attempted to get Gouken yet). I think playing a game first on a higher difficulty setting then switching it for the next one doesn't affect Seth. At least, it didn't seem to on my friend's machine.

I read somewhere that if you use a continue it resets back to medium difficulty but i'm not if that's true or not.

The great thing about a game like this is that it will never get old. Easily the best fighter on the console and my my early front runner for game of the year. I love the single player challenges. They give you practice with the moves and provide a ton of content. The online is silky smooth and you never have to wait long for a fight. Hopefully we get can get some quarter matches going at some point.

I'm a big MVC2 head. I'm glad that we're continuing to hear rumors about a new one coming. Hell, I'd actually be cool with a Xbox Live release of MVC2 in the arcade. Why they never made that online mulitplayer is beyond me.

i agree with everything u said except the bolded part. sometimes im sitting there for 10 minutes trying to play or connect with someone online.

is anyone else having the other player just disconnect between round 1 and 2 all time like me?

I really am never going to play people who use Ken ever again. It's too ****ing much. I can't beat him and he's so easy to master. Cheap mofo.

lol i hate it too. everyone gotta do a wake up shoryuken.

I managed to squeak out the 5 win streak trophy last night - got on a roll the likes of which I've never been on in a fighting game. The highlight was taking down a 3000+BP Guile, whom I baited into using his Ultra Flash and blasted him with GDS on the rebound - in both rounds. Man, that felt good.

Right now I'm sitting on about 900 BP after that spree. I still lose to guys with 100 or less at times though - just not consistent enough.

im finally above 1000 BP. YAY!

im killing these ken's and ryu's with blanka!

I find it faster to play people by just playing the arcade mode and using the fight request. I can barely finish a fight before I get challenged.

Rose's Ultra has to be the easiest to catch someone with in this game.

Sakura's is pretty easy as well.

Yeah. I kept getting hammered with that thing until I got her unlocked and got to see the Ultra in practice.

I am now clearly back to normal as rawdeal just wiped the floor with me.

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

Born wassup. My roommate GT: Redline34 is looking to fight you. If you see him on send him a request. He's better than me so he wants to test your might.

Finally got up with your boy. Four fights, 3 wins. Only loss was Rufus to Ken, and that was pretty close. Didn't really get the sense that he was that much better than you, but I might have to fight him more to see his tendencies.

Working on Ryu's FADC Ultra combos.

Those will be fight ready after about a week in the dojo.

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

I officially hate fighting Zangief's online.

Fought a guy yesterday who did nothing but the spin, ended up beating me in the 3rd round. After, I booted him from my room, and got a message about how much I "blankily blankity suck"

Whatever.

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

Wow, played my first talented El Fuerte user....I could hardly get a lick on him...

One of my friends uses him, once he gets you knocked down it's crazy because he has 3 moves out of the run 1-low slide, 2-jumping throw, 3-body splash. My friend has the timing down to where it's likes you can't even get a wake-up move to come out before you get hit, the only person I can survive with it Vega because of his back-flips and air special moves.....I'd be curious to know what some strategies the Jedi council use against El Fuerte

If he's doing nothing but spins always use Ken\Ryu\Saget and just keep chucking fireballs at him from afar. If all he uses his spins it's pretty easy to time it where he can get spammed with fireballs and there's no way he should even get close to you because if he does just low kick him between lariets.

A good Zangief player will use banishing flats to get close to you. I find Zangief is only really effective agianst charge fighters although Blanka gives me fits, well Blanka gives me fits with anyone I use.

I was Sakura, and he caught me off guard since he was Ken up till about 1 second on the timer and jumped over.

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

Damn, I really have to get into playing this game again.

I blame The Show/SSF2T:HDR/FIFA09/NBA2K9 and soon RE5. Damn it.
