C0R Posted November 22, 2011 Author Posted November 22, 2011 How many of you have beaten monster hunter.
YukiBlue Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 I'm buying a PSP solely for Monster Hunter when it's available. PS3/P has it down for J-Games man, They're all so good. But Skyrim man, What a game. It's just head and shoulders better than any other Free Roam game / RPG in history.
Nemesis Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 I'm really starting to feel like my player skill is plateauing and I'm not quite sure how to make the next step. I search out the strongest players I can but too often it feels like not enough strong ppl play anymore. I figure it's not enough to fight ppl close to my skill, I need to get bodied. I am actually looking for decent advice on this one not some mindless sarcasims, what do you guys do when you feel this way?
Lythium Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 My practice partner is someone who plays consistently better than me, so I don't get that problem. However, you seem like you already know what you want: to get bodied. So, find someone that's better than you, be it offline or online, and ask them very nicely to play some matches with you.

Even if there are no majors in your area (which would be rare), even an anime convention tournament is good enough. You find the other good players that show up, organize meetups, and build a scene. Well, if there isn't already a local scene you don't know about. Also, local doesn't mean same city, it just means that it's close enough that the people don't mind travelling the distance every now and then. I'd also say a lot of good players stop netplaying because they don't like playing through lag, but it's playable if people live close to each other. Maybe there's this godlike retired netplayer that has a good connection with you and is just waiting for a decent opponent with a minimum lag to start playing again. Edited November 22, 2011 by pochp

I get this all the time, I solve it by going to big tournaments and playing everyone possible. You could go to SCR.

Aginor Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 I get this all the time, I solve it by going to big tournaments and playing everyone possible. You could go to SCR. So who in here is going to SCR? :x
Lord Pwnge18 Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 I don't know what SCR is, but I feel it's safe to assume it's on the opposite side of the US from me.
Lord Pwnge18 Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Bitchin', I was right. I mean damn, I was right. Yeah, that's not happening for me unfortunately.
pochp Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 You could go to NEC, it's a lot closer (Philadelphia). I'll be there, anyone else?
Nemesis Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 (edited) I do appreciate very much the constructive advice, I'll try to follow what I can. It does seem like the next step for me is attending tournaments - I am woefully ignorant of them though. I should take some time and study up on them so I can be more involved in this community as well as improve myself. @Lythium the person I play with most is snazzymuffin103 -- a very skilled hazama he often wins, but Im not losing dreadfully "enough" its usually close @Lord : I have seen you but a few times on live and when we fought i believe you faced my Ragna -- which means I was still in warm-up mode, I would gladly mirror your mu I used to dread mu mirrors, but now that I have become quite comfortable with mu and her abilities/weaknesses it turns into a sort of test for me if I can out exploit those which I often enjoy now Edited November 22, 2011 by Nemesis
Nemesis Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 yes yuki aside from your delicious accent which is like cake to our ears what else did you mean?
Lord Pwnge18 Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 @Lord : I have seen you but a few times on live and when we fought i believe you faced my Ragna -- which means I was still in warm-up mode, I would gladly mirror your mu I used to dread mu mirrors, but now that I have become quite comfortable with mu and her abilities/weaknesses it turns into a sort of test for me if I can out exploit those which I often enjoy now Really? huh, I don't remember ever fighting you. oh well, I'll send you a friend request on live some time later. And please, everything about yuki is delicious~
BeaverDeity Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 I get this all the time, I solve it by going to big tournaments and playing everyone possible. You could go to SCR. You going to SCR, C0R?
Nemesis Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Really? huh, I don't remember ever fighting you. oh well, I'll send you a friend request on live some time later. And please, everything about yuki is delicious~ Yea I saw you in ranked - where I usually spend my time when snazzy and I arent smashing each other. You didnt play mu so I was alil disappointed lol
SolarMisae Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 So Skyward Sword is awesome. Trolling Zelda is the best Zelda.
BeaverDeity Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 It's really cool how it looks like a hybrid between Wind Waker and Twilight Princess. :3
argilium Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 So trolling Mu is da best Mu. :Ddoes winning against a low life enemy who's trying to also kill you with his combo only to be stopped and killed by a stray Totsuka laser you let out a few seconds ago count?
Nemesis Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 I prefer the taunting charged laser kill personally -- when it works
