Maybe I don't know where it fits yet, but just even knowing it's there is like a revelation. I remember the first time I watched Aris's video on how to create a strategy by linking moves together with movement, and suddenly watching Korean Tekken videos took on a whole new level. Once someone explained just how brutal Leo's 50/50s and CHs are, I realized I was focusing far too much on fishing for launches and not bullying my opponent into giving me launches. It's like I'm decoding the matrix, one glowy green letter at a time. good post right here <3

Jeabus Mahogany posted:The "bait" is Akuma. Heihachi declared himself dead so that Akuma would move on to his next target, Kazuya. Having just gotten almost killed by Akuma, Heihachi figured that Kazuya would need to go Devil in order to take him on, thus he had cameras at the ready to capture it on film and get the footage viral. What? That's even worse! You're telling me Akuma, the evil demon entity that only hunts those who are worthy of a fight and can appear anywhere apparently on a whim, is foiled by the news telling him that Heihachi is dead? Since when does Akuma care about the news at all? Why would that be even necessary if Akuma already thinks he killed him in the fight? What about the public's perception, which is a huge part of the whole story? Does nobody in the world care that Heihachi, who was declared dead, suddenly reappeared just as loving demons started showing up? I know it's a story about people with weird hairstyles running the world. But it could at the very least not be a drag, it would have been way more fun if it wasn't taking itself so seriously.

I mean it's not like Akuma's plans are foiled by Heihachi pretending to be dead he just does it so Akuma and Kazuya will continue thinking he's dead and won't get distracted from killing each other. It's not that complicated. And yeah the public doesn't care that Heihachi lied about his death because he just killed the Devil himself with the satellite cannon he has for some reason.

I dunno if anyone here is trying to take him on, but if it helps, your easy bnb is: Thanks for this. I've only spent a little time with Hwoarang so far -- I am new-ish and he is complicated, though I've probably spent a good half hour in practice mode going through his movelist -- and have mostly played easier characters online, but he is cool as poo poo and I am interested in getting better at him. Hopefully taking on a character this complex isn't insane. I did smash a friend online yesterday with no prior knowledge except a quick skim of that "15 best moves for all characters" page. Do good Hwoarang players see and think about his different stances on the fly, or is it mostly just remembering strings that happen to have stance changes in them? I'm trying to internalize the advice to watch my opponent rather than myself, and it seems like paying attention to what stance I'm in will make that harder, vs. just knowing what stance certain moves leave me in. Does Law actually have a distinct Dragon Sign Stance in T7? I've read a little about it from earlier Tekkens, but I think I've been through his whole move list and not seen it explicitly mentioned, versus someone like Hwoarang whose move list has separate sections for each stance and each side. More general question: I know the "S!" notation means "screw attack," but when I see it in combos, does it just mean that the attack right before caused that condition, or does it indicate another command I'm meant to be inputting?

Only way I've been able to get ranked matches is by going to the match list and just sitting there (don't refresh or click on anyone), it should pop up a match request eventually, might take a couple minutes Or you can play tournaments.

I'm trying to internalize the advice to watch my opponent rather than myself, and it seems like paying attention to what stance I'm in will make that harder, vs. just knowing what stance certain moves leave me in. Probably not what you wanna hear but yes, despite all the advice from newer players that you only need to know your top 15 moves or whatever, in Hwoarang's case you actually do need to know what all your options are in your stances and how to move between them. I can visualize, for example, that d+3,4 will leave me in RFS and that that means my low options are d+4:3 or d+3, whereas my fast mids are 4 or d/f+4 and my "I definitely have him trained to block low" punish is b+3, etc. The cool payoff of slogging through that learning curve is that instead of relying on strings that serve as canned mixup options, you basically get to create your own endless series of mixups by fluidly moving between setups and keeping people locked down. The downside is that it's a lot more to keep in your head in the meantime, as you're also trying to learn what the hell all the other characters are doing to you. I'm feeling that now as I try to pick up on all the stuff that changed for Hwo in T7, when I can still just pick Paul or Kuma and do the same poo poo as before and win a lot more easily.

Long shot but has anyone had success using a PS2 fight stick on PS4? I have a no-name PS2-to-USB adapter from like 8 years ago which works fine on PC and PS3, but i just tried it on PS4 and it inputs Square and X over and over and wont let me press anything else. I know its not buttons physically jammed or anything like that because it works on PS3, no issues. Tekken 7 says "legacy controller detected" so it knows its there. Maybe an issue with the adapter?

General dumb question: Moves that force an opponent to crouch. I hear they're good because they force an opponent to a restricted moveset. If I hit someone with one, should I be thinking that they're next attack is gonna be a WS attack, a crouching attack or both? I'm a little confused at what they're options actually are when they're forced to crouch.

Basically, they won't have access to any moves you do standing in neutral (no joystick input) or standing d, d/b, or d/f moves. I'm not 100% sure but they might be locked out of b/f moves as well (or that might just be in VF, can't remember...). They can also hold down to stay crouching and do crouch moves. The main thing is, they lose access to their standing jab strings (1,2 or 1,1,2 etc.), which are usually fast/safe strings. However, they can still duck jab, which I think is as fast as stand jab in this game. And of course they can do crouching moves, which will go under your highs as well. If you have frame advantage, then you can usually beat whatever they do with your fastest mid (usually d/f+1, but some characters it's a different command). Anyway! You should go into practice mode and try it yourself. Just manually duck, then let go of the stick and see what happens when you press each button. Then practice doing a crouching move, followed by a WS move, so you can get a feel for the timing of that. This will also allow you to figure out what your options are in that situation, which you can then use to infer what your opponent's options are.

Dope, thanks. Slowly absorbing my character's options. There's only like a million of them. But uh, that seems to be Tekken's thing. Really I should sit down and grind some matches to get a feel for moving and poking but I'm just trying to remember what my launchers are/ how to get a little damage off them. I'm mostly messing around with Alissa so I'm also trying to remember what gets her into destruction stance and boot. I know I should just whittle down the move list to a few things and I try to do that in matches, but I'm pretty prone to paralysis when it comes to thinking about what to start working on because there's so little I know and so many different things.

Noob question incoming; Is there a "proper way" to deal with mix-ups? I'm having a really bad time against characters like Asuka who can do all kinds of different awful moves out of the same string. Do I block low on the third hit? Oops, launched! Do I block mid? Oops, launched with a different attack! It can't be purely guessing right? e: oh no.. I'm getting an "Unreal Engine is exiting due to D3D device being lost." error when trying to take screenshots in customization. If I can't customize, there's no reason to play this game! Anyone else experience the same? e2: thank goodness, going back to Fullscreen proper seems to fix it Your Computer fucked around with this message at 09:10 on Jun 6, 2017 |

I just had 3 glitches happen in one (double elimination) tournament that actually ran to completion. First I got a freebie because my first round opponent and I couldn't connect, so the game just decided gently caress it, Skjorte wins. Then in the semi-finals, I thought I'd somehow angered my opponent enough to throw his controller away since he was completely unresponsive in the final round, but right as I finish him off and I click to see the chat, he's already written GG. Apparently we disconnected before the last round, with him winning. Then in the loser's final, halfway through a 2-0 lead, the game again decided gently caress it, the other guy won. The post- and pre-match bugs aren't too frustrating, but mid-match randomness like that is making me not want to bother with the online aspect of the game at all.
