you too man

sorry i had to go like that, i wanted to catch the snooker on tv

no problem man. i think our messages weren't being sent after a while there. that balrog was pretty savage. i need to keep practicing my dhalsim. feel free to challenge me whenever you see me in the room.

jpj · Post by **jpj** » Wed Apr 29, 2009 11:34 pm

i charge TAP punches too much i think, but your dhalsim is solid. lag was a bit hit and miss, but not terrible, i'll definitely hit you up for some more games in the future

(the guy i had money on just lost 13-12

i was so sad i couldnt win 1 round with ken

jpj · Post by **jpj** » Thu Apr 30, 2009 1:14 am

that was around the time the text stopped working. i was really annoyed because there was one point where after i bit you with blanka, i tried baiting the DP, you just stood there, and when i went for a ball attack, you fucking DP'd it.

it was beastly

I need to play Ex_Mosquito sometime... couldn't you guys just play in an arcade or something?

Would this GGPO business help me get better at street fighter 4? I have ST 2 turbo and 3rd strike on the DC but I'm getting destroyed on XBL.

Edit: anyone playing sf4 over xbl let me know if you want a game.

Ganelon · Post by **Ganelon** » Sun May 10, 2009 2:08 am

No, the other SF games won't really help you out in SFIV besides the fundamentals of fighting game tactics and reading opponents.

jpj · Post by **jpj** » Sun May 10, 2009 11:03 am

it will help you develop better taste in games

i haven't played sf4, but it just looks so garish. there are quite a lot of games on ggpo diabollokus, it's just that we tend to play super street fighter 2 turbo. bu there's also kof 98, kof 2002, last blade 2, garou mark of the wolves, xmen vs street fighter, etc etc

ganelon: not sure i follow dude

P_HAT · Post by **P_HAT** » Sun May 10, 2009 12:04 pm

jpj don't be a dumbass XD

SF4 is cool (not so good as ST but still)

btw i played with Ex_Mosquito like 21 match. And beat him like only once. He really know the game, i see it. Awesome skill. Also he play Chun Li, so i can learn many stuff from him!!!

P.S. Anyway all 2d fightings beside ST sux compare to GG XD

jpj · Post by **jpj** » Sun May 10, 2009 12:30 pm

someone on arcade otaku described sf4 as "the proof that doesn't exist"

Don't you both live in the UK around London somewhere?

jpj · Post by **jpj** » Sat May 16, 2009 1:33 am

no, i live in the south-west of england, and ex_mosquito lives in wales

i wish i did live near london, it would make attending ST tournaments more feasible. although someone mentioned a website called electronic-dojo to me, which is based around the west midlands, but it looks like they mainly just play sf4

i'm gonna miss being a jobless bum sat on ggpo all day

jpj · Post by **jpj** » Tue Jul 14, 2009 10:58 pm

those were some fun matches phat, sorry i talk so much random shit when we play

1up · Post by **1up** » Wed Jul 15, 2009 8:52 am

sounds like fun. I will try it out when my TE stick eventually arrives

ive had a loooooooooooong SF hiatus. Played SF2 and SF2T on SNES and Alpha 1 on PS1 and just recently picked up SF IV

im up for some games in whatever SF game when the time comes. Im in GMT+1 land

P_HAT · Post by **P_HAT** » Wed Jul 15, 2009 9:17 am

lol random shit lalk ftw.

1up, i will play SF4 too, on my new pc, lol

Beware!!! Or you play it on consoles?

1up · Post by **1up** » Wed Jul 15, 2009 10:00 am

I've got SF IV on x360. I know bVork plays it too

jpj · Post by **jpj** » Wed Jul 15, 2009 3:57 pm

1up: it's a lot of fun

i'm usually in the super street fighter 2 turbo room, just give us a shout when you're up and running

phat: yeah, i don't seem to take it very seriously, but i think it's better that way

1up · Post by **1up** » Thu Jul 16, 2009 12:14 pm

ive never played super turbo on arcade, but have hd remix on x360. ive read theyre not 1:1 identical but the basics should be the same right?

if so I will bring my ken to get whopped

jpj · Post by **jpj** » Sat Jul 18, 2009 10:59 am

pretty much dude yeah

some moves were simplified for hd remix (like 360 degree motions for zangief and t.hawk), but yeah you'll be fine

(and ryu is better than ken

)

1up · Post by **1up** » Mon Jul 20, 2009 6:17 am

hah yea I main Ryu in SF IV and used to in every other SF game. I just like Kens knee bash schenanigans in HDR. Its faster than Ryus overhead for mixup games. Kens super sucks though and is kinda hard to land compared to Ryus super.

I really need to learn other characters. Ive always liked Boxer but charge moves are so foreign to me. Practice will overcome that, I just dont have the patience

Aquas · Post by **Aquas** » Mon Jul 20, 2009 2:17 pm

I finally decided to install GGPO after using 2df for a while. The first match of SFAlpha3 I got into in GGPO was killer. The guy played Guy and was doin 14 hit combos on me. 30 matches and I only managed to win once. I learned my lesson, I have to learn combos to ascend my skill. Isn't that always the fighting truth...

ST is a blast to play.

GGPO's lag spikes are annoying because of the sound tears, but the ability to have spectators makes up for it in a way. I have been re-learning ST gradually playin' w/ some folks like V3rtigo and phat, they are a blast to play. I'll try to logon occasionally and hunt you guys out, or PM me in the shmups IRC sometime.

Speaking of SF IV, I finally got around to trying it out at a friends. It seems pretty legit, but the moves felt kind of easy to pull off. No HUD feature is cool, but I prefer the HUD to be there, lol.

jpj · Post by **jpj** » Thu Aug 27, 2009 4:46 pm

what's your username on ggpo aquas? we'll have to play some ST at some point

i've also set up two channels for recording some matches on ggpo. it's just for a bit of a laugh and see if/how i progress over time, and i'll be throwing up some vids of other players that i like. channels are here:

1up: yeah boxer is really strong and not very difficult to learn either. is he still top tier in HDR does anyone know?

Ganelon · Post by **Ganelon** » Thu Aug 27, 2009 6:18 pm

He's moved up from 3rd now that o.Sagat is gone, to 2nd or possibly even into 1st place above Dhalsim. afro legends predominantly used boxer to take Evo this year.

jpj wrote:1up: yeah boxer is really strong and not very difficult to learn either. is he still top tier in HDR does anyone know?

so boxer is top tier in old ST? Dont have a clue on the tier list in that. Ive had my TE stick for a months time now and it really helped my SF IV game. I started right out with boxer in SF IV and have gotten better. I cant play shoto at ALL with a stick. Cant even pull of fireballs consistently with the square gate? So im sticking with boxer.

Im afraid to start GGPO as im afraid it will hurt my SF IV game. And my time is limited with me having a kid and all. Will be back soon when I finally make a GGPO account. Will have to try it out sooner or later

1up · Post by **1up** » Sun Aug 30, 2009 2:38 pm

ok, just installed GGPO and made an account.

my name on there is Sp3cTr3

Having some problems. I watched a match, and it worked fine. Since then nothing happens when the game loads. just a black screen? Is this a common error?

jpj · Post by **jpj** » Sun Aug 30, 2009 3:04 pm

have your ports been forwarded properly? can you play the game/rom offline? i'm not very tech savvy, best bet is to check on the trouble-shooting section of the ggpo forums
