Do you get more fight money at higher ranks? Might be little kids trying to hoard fight money, sounds like something I would have done when I was 12

They should have made everyone who has a super saiyan vtrigger have a cool new look like Necalli. Chun and Bison's are so :effort: in comparison

I'm a sucker, a little fucker.
I find the leniency off of the cancels in this game a little weird. As Ken, doing the cr.mp, TC xx H tatsu (which is like babby's first combo) combo, I have to do the tatsu pretty late, if not it doesn't come out.

Unfortunately my muscle memory is dumb and I input the cancel too fast if I start off with cr.mp but remember the timing fine if I just do raw TC.

I have a similar problem with Karin and instant Tenko's where I find I have different timing depending on how many /which normals I started off the combo with.

Yeah, I have no idea what or why I was getting dropped inputs, but at least one time Joy2Key just decided "nah, man, your controller ain't working now" and made me lose a game, bleh.

I don't think there's any penalty yet no. At the very least, I didn't get the points for the win!

But that person losing their points and being angry would be a small consolation at least

You'd think SF woulda learned from MKX and implented some kind of quitality. Honestly if someone quits its hould deduct 3x the amount of points.

Picked up the Hori FC4 today and it's a marked improvement over the 360 pad I was using. I'm still bad, but at least when I want to do a move I can actually do it without having my inputs all over the place.

People are a lot less inclined to ragequit when there aren't ego numbers attached to each fight.

Then there are games like blazeblue and guilty where its not just numbers but a lil color by your name.

Some nerd in BB lobby like a month ago literally told someone "ew you're only blue"

I'm terrible for getting concerned about this stuff, but tanking my rank and playing lobbies/casuals has been a remarkably liberating experience.

It's not like the people I will play at locals will give a flying rats rear end about my online rank when they are bodying me if I don't get enough actual practice because I'm too prissy about letting some points go.

(Now they'll body me because I'm bad, but that's a different problem).

My favorite thing about this is it showed me stuff about my own character I didn't realize was a tactic and it also showed me what variations of that tactic are safe and not safe.

How does wakeup work in this game? People are insta jumping up on supers, grabs are whiffing or being stuffed, sometimes they grab me when i'm trying to grab them. Is it lag or is my timing off?

Why would anyone bother ragequiting when there's like a 50% chance that the match results never get recorded anyways.

I would say I've had like 100 matches at least today and maybe 2 did that.

No rage quits either though so who knows.

When you get knocked down, you have three options for getting up. Press nothing to get up with normal timing. Tap down or press two punches as soon as your body hits the ground to quick getup, or press two kicks to get a quick getup with a backwards roll.

One of the common complaints with SF4 was the prevalence of hard (non-quick-get-uppable) knockdowns, so the only things that hard KD in this game are crush counter sweeps and, I think, handful of critical arts. You can quick rise almost everything else.

I just kept getting stuffed/whiffing the DP as it was crossing up every time, not sure if that's just what it does or he was spacing it really well.

Tried jump HP/HK instead and just got thrown for my trouble.

Is it just a case of knowing the range like normal jumps?

I know people are saying to learn Ryu first, but I'm playing chun li for the first time and she's really fun.

What can I do if a headstomp is blocked? I feel like I'm floating pretty helpless after that happens. Should I stick to using it after a successful v-skill only?

I believe you can do air lightning legs after and be fairly safe.

Bought this today and honestly I'm enjoying the arcade mode. They are silly short stories but do more to give the characters--- character --- than the arcade mode in SF4 ever did. Zangief has been great every time he's shown up.

Any tips for how I should handle fireballs and other long range attacks with Birdie? The glide is slow and jumping seems like a really bad idea most of the time.

If you do a stomp deep enough, I'm pretty sure anything you do afterwards blows up anything not invincible, as long as it's fast. Legs is safe enough also.
