LastStarSaviour Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 (edited) Star I'm sorry I can't make it today. I have several errands to run Nah it's cool, I kinda figured it'd end up like this. Honestly I just wanted to do something this weekend other than watch/get hype for P4U, but then I realised, that's all I need to be doing anyway. *Goes off to watch more P4U* Edit: I didn't even notice you up there Trippfan. You can add me day 1 when P4U releases if you wish, I probably won't be playing online at all that week due to lab-work, but that weekend i'll most likely be playing a lot seeing as i'll be in that online tournament. Hit me up then for some matches. Edited July 28, 2012 by LastStarSaviour
Papstr Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 After watching a bit of P4U in person at Otakon, I'm kinda excited for it. It's a shame that I'm way too slow for that newegg promotion jackie linked a while back. I'm very hesitant to drop 60$ on this game, considering the money I'm shelling out to go to Otakon anyway. What to do..
Astaroth136 Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 (edited) August 18th, new date. Damn, Aug. 18? That's my birthday, and I literally (I hate this word, but it applies here) just made plans with some friends. Hmmm, decisions... Noted. @Tadstaroth. New Kanji combo video by Hima, probably the best Valk player in Japan. My fear is rekindled. Oh man, this combo video showed some advanced strats, which is what I love for videos to do. A baited dp punish and some sort of baited backdash thing was awesome. Also, super -> cancel -> super grab is hype. Edited July 29, 2012 by Astaroth136

All the stuff he did is literally in the combo thread I just finished making yesterday so to me it was nothing new. There is also some footage of a gdlk Kanji in a recent A-cho set. Has like 750+ PSR and all he did was body people for like 40+ minutes.

AXIS work > all. If you go I promise to bake you a birthday cake. This scares me. Then again, I don't know what your baking skill level is.
Jackie Chandler Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Gawd you guys, I'm so hype for Persona to come out. Like, it's easier for me to decide which characters I DON'T want to main, because the list of characters I WOULD like to main is actually bigger. And even with my heavy reliance on high-damaging combos, the characters who have less output (like Yu/Yosuke) just look so FUN. I don't know how I'm gonna decide. Naimat, I'm so sorry I haven't gotten to mailing your copy of KoF to you yet. I'll do that tomorrow morning.
Volpe-de-Glacio Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 I can't wait to see how it does. Yeah, it's an animu fighter, but it's probably got the best shot out of any of them. As for the people assuming it's going to be piss-easy, you can't forget that this is still an ASW game. Japan is looked at in awe for a reason; they make EVERYTHING look easy. ONE MO' WEEK.
LastStarSaviour Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 It'll do well, the game is going to be deep and fun. We just need the right people opening it up.
Milln Posted July 31, 2012 Author Posted July 31, 2012 Just in case you haven't heard, yet. PSY is back.
Klein Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Just in case you haven't heard, yet. PSY is back. This was pretty much our hotel room's soundtrack for Otakon, all day every day.
Papstr Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 This was pretty much our hotel room's soundtrack for Otakon, all day every day. ^ Pre-ordered P4U. Please don't suck.
Milln Posted August 1, 2012 Author Posted August 1, 2012 Hey, welcome back, guys! I expect constories! I refuse to board the hype train for Ultimate Mayonnaise. It's happened multiple times for a bunch of games that either I later hated or dropped for other reasons. KOF is my only game. I'm open to pressing buttons, though.
Tophatmoffet Posted August 1, 2012 Posted August 1, 2012 (edited) Same. Unless that patch they did a while ago secretly added 6p that for some reason nobody has found yet, I'm not touching this game competitively with a 20ft pole. I followed this game intently back at the jp arcade release and it looked like blazblue 2. Also con stories? here's a good one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjBqIztp1OE Edited August 1, 2012 by Tophatmoffet
Papstr Posted August 1, 2012 Posted August 1, 2012 As I talked with you in Skype, there's 2Bs which are vaguely similar. Anyway let's just play it when I get it and we'll see. As for the Con, well, there was me getting bodied by dudes in Street Fighter, us bodying fools in F-zero GX, and me never touching the KOF set ups because it had pads and they wouldn't let you plug in sticks. Also there was a GG set up with pads. lol. I saw the Battle Royale movie. It was pretty sweet. Went to the Touhou fan-wank panel. Wasn't as bad as I thought. Shoutouts to trekking across the entire con space for an Avatar panel only to find it was canceled, the trekking back to the other side to hit up the Dealer's Room, only to find it was closed. I did go back the final day to pick up a Chie figure though! I've always wanted to get into figure collecting. I like displaying neat little stuff like that. Yea.
LuminAbyss Posted August 1, 2012 Posted August 1, 2012 Out of curiousity, what system are you guys getting P4U on?

Change your rage to smarter, greater cause. Also, I mailed your KOF today Naimat. The lady said it'll probably be there tomorrow, so just keep an eye out.

Klein Posted August 1, 2012 Posted August 1, 2012 P4U is Pee Ess Tree for me, if I buy it. Also for Milln Thusday: we started off the trip by chilling at Papstr's house and planting the Gangnam Style seed that would grow to be an earworm for everyone involved. Then, after much deliberation, a little frisbee, and even less spanking. We went Mr. Struts watching for the entertainment of the entire room, before most of us decided to crash. While the rest of the room was asleep, Papstr and myself decided read the gold that is Mayonnaise Midnight and Blazbleugh.com until the others woke up. Afterwards we headed out for a long car ride. I ended up switching from #Coolswag's Swag Fag Wag to the Party Kia and don't even regret it a little bit. Turns out truckers are just internet trolls with southern accents, and Dr. Enuf is the best drink in the world. So at the end of our long dive, we got lost in Baltimore without a GPS, and Mac was our hero of the trip and got Himself, and everyone in the Party Kia to the hotel safely. Afterwards we got food, got our badges and I learned that if you talk loudly about getting a hooker friend off your dick, it tends to draw attention. Friday: Woke up, touched some butts. Then we moved to the con and I split off from everyone to go look for a friend of mine. After two hours of giving me terrible directions I met up with her, gave her a hug, then chilled with her and her friends, while taking pictures of a Tales cosplay photoshoot. They went up for lunch and we parted ways. Afterwards I went to the local massive game room to get bodied by a Bison I gave too much respect to, then talk to a cool dude about anime fighters in front of the P4U setup. After that my memory gets kind of fuzzy, so skip to us watching dancers in the main hotel entrance before moving into a line for the rave. During the line, I saw some people watching us from a higher floor, so I mimed out "I'm watching you" only to find out Everyone thinks I look like Jesus. During the rave I got to enjoy gyrating my fine backside and party boying my pals without a care in the world. After that we went to the ladies night hentai panel and joked around about bad porn and worse voice acting until leaving early to crash. Saturday: I don't really remember much about Saturday other than playing a lot of the Umineko fighter and getting to know a couple guys while I was at it. After that a few of us watched the Battle Royale movie, causing Papstr to marathon the manga. And we helped out a friend before goin' all to sleep. Sunday: Chillin', buying a samurai dude with a ballin' mustache and a sweet pocket watch for myself. Learning nothing from an arcade stick panel, more chillin' and saying farewell to buddies <3
Milln Posted August 1, 2012 Author Posted August 1, 2012 Awesome. Sounds like it was hella fun (THERE. I SAID IT FIRST. NONE OF YOU CAN SAY "sounds like fun" OR SIMILAR. ) Lots of antics, lots of jokes, lots of anime. Glad you guys had a good time. The Battle Royale Manga is really good, ive read the whole thing and I enjoyed all of it. KIRIYAMA IS THIRTY BADASSES IN THE MANGA.
