I'm not going to be able to attend any meetups for a while between work and some personal stuff I have going on right now. I still want to try to attend any events like UCC and what not, but everything's just kind of uncertain at the moment.

I'll try to make it out to stuff if it's within my power, but no promises. :\

it almost looks like im laughing at him..... but im sure i wasn't

[Frigiddeath]

And this is why Frigid can become a casual

Fixed and exactly, so much easier to not play and have to deal with shit like Haggar and instead just not play games and do something else. Like anything else.

Thanks for proving my point Oso.

[Mr Oso]

Nu jew kant bekum a kazsuall playa cuz yew wuz beastin and havvin phun in OK with yur friends.

I really do wanna see you come to meetups and still give it your all but really if you just dont see that happening that also fine.

I do love rhapin fooz, but just not having to time to practice and play means I am not raping really anyone these days and that makes me a sad panda. Also, I am just not able to really focus while playing these days which makes it way harder to play and I just end up getting annoyed with how I end up playing. That is why it is probably best for to just not care and do whatever instead of trying to be serious about it. Just not going to work for me right now and all I am going to do is end up getting way to mad about it. I will still be playing just got to figure out how hard I want to play at this point.

[Frigiddeath]

So I was goofing off earlier online playing marvel and blew this Guy up in 3 combos one after another was.fancy.combos and remembered how much I love fancy combos and blowing someone up for no good reason. If.only I could learn to do that in every game everytime I think I would find the will to play. Being lame and dumb is my greatest joy

[Mr Oso]

No homo

I clearly said "No Homo" and thus making not gay in anyway good sir.

"Said to show that you aren't gay after saying something that sounded gay.

Hay man, pass the nuts. No homo

I cornered him in my room and nailed him with a board. No homo"

[KUSHxCOMMANDO]

[KUSHxCOMMANDO]

^^ indeed

anyways we should drop all those pverty fighters and doujin fighters including moldy bud , and hop on that gg hype train

[Mr Oso]

Well the only people that REALLY play it don't come to the meetups anymore(mebbe they will idk there busy always). Might/Suppa/Jet/Frigid are the potential GG Hype Train Passengers and im always down as fuck for just about any game.Except Tekken and Virtual Fighter .

[Mr Oso]

if they did i would have known long ago, man ;_;

unless i missed a spot or something new came out

but yeah ps2 sticks are an issue especially when denton crew isnt here (in which case we basically rely on supaa/jet)

[Mr Oso]

Poo >.>

Well as long as there's 1-2 sticks that's gravy. Im fine playing on pad id just prefer to learn on stick.Dem ball setups~~~

[Mightfo]

Also, oso/danni/whoever:

I was thinking about why skullgirls is something to be hype as hell for, and besides the obvious "mike z who knows what he's doing and explains design decisions and hates boring games" stuff etc etc, there's another thing too: The infinite detection system not only means "no infinites," but as they have expressed once or twice before iirc, means that other parts of the game don't have to suffer to balance combos.

Surely you've come across moves in various fighters which made you say "Why is this move so unsafe/negative on block?"(specials that move you forward in many games but dont really have good priority) or "Why is this move so fucking slow on startup?"(ragna 6d?) And sometimes, the answer is because of combos. A lot of the time, moves get nerfed in terms of usefulness in pressure/neutral/defense because if the move's startup was faster or if you recovered quicker from it, it would allow runaway comboability.

Basically, a lot of times the developers take a hands-on approach to balancing the reward of moves and comboability, and in the process many moves end up being nerfed not because they would be overpowered in neutral or pressure or whatever, but because of comboability. Balancing moves for neutral, pressure, and combos simultaneously is hard.

Things like same-move proration and hitstun scaling can help avoid this, but there's still the matter of "This would be a really easy combo path that we dont want them to have," infinites aside. Mike Z has said (IIRC) that he does not like hitstun scaling because it feels like combos get arbitrarily harder.

But yeah, under this train of thought, an infinite prevention system like that of Skullgirls allows moves to be more useful and exciting in other capabilities because they dont have to have their recovery or startup or whatever nerfed to prevent unwanted combos.
