So I started working on my stick today. Still have to install my art, bezel, sidings and cover, but the buttons came early so I popped them in.

I'm a fan of the TES+, but the HRAP 4 is a great. I wouldn't get one with a touch pad though. The 4 Kai, 5 and VLX all got skewered by Teyah, which is a stick lag testing site. They all had between 14 and 16ms of lag.

I owned one before I switched to a TES+ and its a noticeable difference.

Has anyone tried changing the art in the TES+? I want to do it, but if it's more than just replacing the shadaloo plate with a plexi and art, then I'll pass on it.

I knew that rumor was fakr before that, but adding DMC and Power Stone on there was asking to dog pile the credibility. I'd like to see Gene and Ruby Heart, but we'll see. I'm hoping the game is basically TvC2.

Is there a reason TvC is super disliked? I've only messef with it through emulation and I had fun with it. Never saw any tournament play.

I played that game at PAX south. Its a neat thing, but its still far from finished. I could aee it being appealing to newer folk tho. If anything needed changing it was the booth management team.

You can find an HRAP IV usually at our around 100 bucks. They are decent sticks even if I cannot stand their buttons. Personally, if you can save a bit and put in 150, you can get a Madcatz TES+, Razer Panthera or Qanba Crystal. All three are excellent sticks. I'd tell you to do the TES+ since is has a really good PC driver.

Hey if anyone who's more familiar with the current lineups from Razer/Hori/Qanba/Eightarc/whatever wants to do quick write-ups similar to those in the OP, I'll throw them up there. I've always used Mad Catz so I'm not as aware of what's current or good in other brands.

I can cover the Razer sticks when I get home.

SethSeries
Sep 10, 2013



Here's that Panthera write up for the OP, Brosnan.

Razer Panthera
Consoles: PS3/4, PC
Cost: 200 USD

Pros: This is Razer's answer to the TE2+. Size of the MadCatz TES with the customization of the TE2. It comes stock with Sanwa parts, touchpad and L3&R3 support. Razer has also released a firmware update that decreases stick input lag for their website. It is on the same level as the TE2+ with the update. Has built in compartment for USB cord, uses the same USB cord as the TE2 series and comes with a bat top.
Cons: Stick is pricey at 200USD. It regularly goes on sale during tournaments for upwards of 50 dollars off. While the buttons and joystick are easily swapped, the artwork is etched into the plexi and no one has come up with an alternative for it yet. Focus Attack is working on a solution, but who knows when that will come out.

Boxman posted:

I just dug my stuck out of storage but I'm limited to a PC. What punchman games have a community these days? SFV obviously. Is KI worth learning? Are there any airdashers where I can find a match reliably?

Fightcade is still incredibly popular on the Goonsgarden discord channel. SFV doesn't see a lot of play from there, but its the easiest to find matches in. Both Trykt and I are trying to get more people playing KI, but we're usually down to play. There is a pretty active amount of people playing the latest Guilty Gear for PC.

So I have a bit of a technical question for any of the stick modders here. I have an XB1 stick I am going to mod. I'm buying this board because it works on everything and has headers:

This is the current PCB and hookup in my stick:



In theory since it has headers, could I just switch the PCBs out and switch connections. This is the diagram for what hooks into the headers:

The razer panthera i won back during the MvC3 Evo fundraiser a couple months ago finally arrived. Really nice stick, feels really solid. Not being able to change out art sucks but it does make the plexi feel more solid.

Hi, so I'm new to the whole fightstick thing. I'm planning on making GG XRD2 my first PC game and I'm planning on getting a stick for it too. Now that Madcatz is gone, is there a new best or should I just go with the Hori RAP4 for now and switch out the buttons at a later date?

(This isn't my first fighting game, I've played BlazBlue forever on my xbox but the community on it is kinda dead, and none of my friends play xbox fighters)

I'm a big fan of the Razer PS4 stick, but hori had really good mid range priced sticks. I don't like the buttons on them at all.

Oh! I didn't realise.

I'm not looking for budget, but due to the fact that I pretty much have no fighting game experience I don't want to spend too much in case I don't have much fun. I thought that sort of price was feasible without going too crazy.

Be prepared to spend like 150. There's decent places to sell sticks too if it's not your thing. I will say, Hori's new line is out soon. The HRAP N is 130 most places and It's a really good stick.
