I never even downloaded that dlc because of the fact that it wasn't enough FM for a character, and i already had juri.

Does it auto download? The option to play it is just greyed out for me on the PC. Do I have to beat all the character stories first?

Not that I'd do anything but skip the cut scenes and mash through, I'm farming baby.

What if Capcom made one costume for a lady character that didn't make her look like really bad theme night at the strip club?

Wait there's Mika's alt which is just normal ugly not creepy and ugly.

It doesn't help that all the models and texture work in the game look like nightmares. The red bull chun li one just exaggerates the problem and makes her look like on of those inflated muscle fetish drawings you see posted in the GBS deviantart thread.

It probably seems not intuitive if you're just starting with a stick cause you think of a joystick as giving you a circular range of motion and the octogon is closer to a circle than a square, but an octogate gives you a smaller area to hit the diagonal inputs. Also when it comes to being precise with your inputs, having the sharp corners of a square gate gives you a lot more feedback. E.G. when you're doing a DP motion you know that you're hitting it right (for the down, down forward part) when you bring the joystick down and then slide it over till you feel the corner.

Is the last one I had and I gave up because the square gate felt really weird and wrong. DP was the exact input that I couldn't do on it reliably (and even fb's weren't perfect) and I'd never had any probs before at the arcade or on an older stick. Maybe it's just that specific one?

Getting different gates is easy, you just gotta order the part:

I've found a difference in the shortcuts between qcf's and dp's depending on which gate you have. This board can't handle nuance so be prepared for a monologue about how terrible octagates are

The only thing I can think of that doesn't require modding is this, since the most recent seimitsu parts come with octogates.

Most of the swimsuit costumes are ok or at least less lovely than my bar of "God awful".

"modding" a stick is unscrewing like 4 Phillips head screws, taking off a snap ring, then reassembling. I don't even like using the word modding because of how easy it is.

The thing that really fucks with my head is that I put together a MAME cabinet like 10 years ago and made a custom stick/button set in FG layout, don't remember having any sort of gate other than the circle that was bored out for installation and that one didn't give me any probs either.

Yeah I'm not afraid to do so, I was just wondering if square and balltop is default everywhere

I'm using an optical switch so I don't get the audible clicks when I actuate my stick, riding the octagate helps me input special shortcuts really easily without these references other players are expecting on their square gates (they get the loud and tactile CLICK of hitting the switch, so in its place gate riding is kind of nice)

Also glued a bar to prevent the joystick from being able to hit the "up" switch or even move it upwards, rewired the upswitch to a button and now I have a jump button! :shepface:

Man I started picking up this game again and kinda enjoying it. I really, really hope they shake it up with the S2 update though because man, I really would like it to be good. Honestly cribbing from other combo systems and opening up the mechanics, but adding heavy proration to combos that start with light attacks would do a lot to open the game up without running into the LP into 450 damage combo that they seem to be terrified of.

For some reason I just can't get in to Revelator as much. It's not the inputs or anything, just for some reason I don't like the feel of gatling combos?

Pretty excited for Tekken 7 though! Can't wait to pick that up, play it for a month and then give up because it's so hard to learn.
