Street Fighter IV

[Ramor]

BB! but ff i don't get paid until wednesday! FFFFFFFFF

[Krandor]

Super stoked about BB, getting it on PS3.

Been looking up strats and watching videos to get myself used to the differences between it and GG.

[Ramor]

never really played GG so i'm hoping the fresh start helps more than trying to break old habits

[Weltall]

Prepare to be juggled my friend !

[Ramor]

I'm fine with being juggled, I'm just hoping for a game where tiers aren't so relevant and if I pick any character from the start I won't have to switch if I plan to be any sort of good

[richardd]

how are the command inputs for combos compared to SFIV?

[Weltall]

They are like Arcana Hearts 2 if you have played that. The combos feel obviously like GG, but if you haven't played either of those then I would have to say TvC.

There is a whole lot of jab foward jab forward jab forward overhead, launcher, start juggle

Kind of like Ibuki play in 2nd Impact / 3rd Strike (Which is why she was the only character ever banned from tourneys besides Seth / Akuma)

*For those of you who didn't play that far back, here is some evidence why she was banned:

This guy is obviously doing it from training mode, but pretty much any attack from her could lead to ENDLESS different infinity possibilities. Pretty much when we play social in the arcade we don't even use her, because the first one of us to land a hit wins >_>

BB combos and SF4 combos arn't even on the same plane of existence, BB moves are super simple, and it's about timing them and constantly switching between the correct ones well playing mind games with your opponent.

BB doesn't aggrivate my arthritis like SF4 does.

[Ramor]

will BB online/PvP make me ragefighter IV all over again?

[octopus]

How's the netcode in BB? Are there input delays?

[Weltall]

Couldn't tell you that yet. The combos are much simpler because they aren't retarded 1-frame connectors like Sf4.

Well, I wouldn't say simpler because the input commands are MUCH longer, but you are given more slack on hitting them lol.

If you can memorize them to muscle reaction, ala Mvc2, then you will love it.

Edit - If you're playing against a good V-13, you will be ragequitting, lol!

[Ramor]

Edit - If you're playing against a good V-13, you will be ragequitting, lol!

Just as long as 90% of the playerbase doesn't choose one particular character and follow an unnamed flowchart ragequitting won't really be an issue.

[Weltall]

Probably more than 90% of ranked games will have V-13 >_> lol. Well, lets hope not.-.;

[Weltall]

Picked up Blazblue earlier today; I cannot wait to get home tonight!

[Katlan]

I wanna hear how it is!

[Weltall]

Its good; most people on here have probably been playing it at the arcade for awhile now.

[Merovingian]

Its good; most people on here have probably been playing it at the arcade for awhile now.

i know i will not touch online until i can be a decent fighter.

btw we should do a new thread for this, that way we can leave this one for SF4

[Weltall]

I made the thread, but I totally screwed up.

It should have read:

The Wheel of Fate is Turning! Rebel 1! ACTION!

Grrrr!

[Charismatic]

Ibuki was only softbanned before people figured out how to play the game... obviously everyone knows you can't even get off a combo like that in tournament play.

This is what high level Ibuki play tends to look like and there's a reason Ibuki isn't top tier.

[Weltall]

Dude....that is 3rd Strike.....

You don't know what you're talking about.

Ibuki was the only S ranked player in 2nd Impact, and WAS banned lol. Also, I can pull a 100% combo on you given 50% meter from almost any hit with Ibuki in 2nd Impact....consistently.

Akuma was the only character that came close to Ibuki in 2nd Impact.
