Kobayashi Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 GG is definitely not as active as the other games. The old guard doesn't really come out to gatherings anymore, though there are still a select few who are still enthusiastic about the game. Weekly gatherings at GP average about 0.8 GG setups per week. People will play if someone brings the game, but usually you have to seek out the players themselves and ask them if they want to play GG. Always willing to oblige, but never the game that everyone naturally gravitates toward. EDIT: Oh yeah, I forgot about the PS3 release.
Enigmos Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 Alright thanks for the info guys. I take it the big games are Street fighter, marvel, and persona?
Chris Chaos Posted December 7, 2012 Author Posted December 7, 2012 Offline is so good! Everyone should show up for these meet ups if you have the time. Everyone is so chill offline and you actually can do combos! Join us!
xerocool Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 I dont know why nickel city is dead its cheaper then both venues and its a decent size too compared to ignite Sent from the LG-Viper
Enigmos Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 yea was kinda surprised by that too. I guess a lot of people never showed up.
TheSeltsamOne Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 Nickel City is much further north than the other venues, and the public transit to get there is insane on weekends. If I wanted to take the trains to Frosty Faustings from Richton Park I would have to either get up at 6AM or get there at 1AM

If I wanted to take the trains to Frosty Faustings from Richton Park I would have to either get up at 6AM or get there at 1AM ^ This is why. Most of the players are not that high up north and the venue itself is OK. Everyone Gravitated toward Game Pazzo because of it's room and comfort, yeah, it's 5 dollars but its worth it.
nobodyexe Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 NickelCity is like an hour away for me in good traffic. It's pretty much there for bigger tourneys.
Agito Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 Sorry guys today isn't looking good for me to go. But I will be able to go out to more events in the future because now I have a car I would also be willing to give city players a ride as well.
Chris Chaos Posted December 7, 2012 Author Posted December 7, 2012 Ignite is reopening and we'll be hosting our first casuals this Monday night! If you live in the city, this is the opportunity to show up and game out. I'll be hitting up this venue on Monday with Persona and possibly Guilty Gear if people show interest. I've updated the first page, if there are any errors, let me know so I can make corrections.
TheSeltsamOne Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 So 2 people are definitely coming over to my house today to start learning, maybe 2 more. Do you guys have any Persona/GG tips for complete beginners that aren't covered in the P4U tutorial? I'm not sure that I'm the best teacher and I'm pretty sure I'll forget some important stuff.
Enigmos Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 (edited) Well all i know about GG character wise is to not let them pick A.B.A. I think she is one of the hardest characters in the game if i remember. Then again they might like that, i do. Wish my friends took fighting games more seriously I just realized that was terrible advice.... sorry. Edited December 8, 2012 by Enigmos
TheSeltsamOne Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 Oh no, any advice is appreciated! One of my friends refused to learn anything about either P4U or GG and said she didn't even want to play before playing an iPhone game for 30 minutes and going home. The other one is now spending the night and already beating me up in GG. He's maining Akihiko and Venom and subbing Faust. He's probably going to be playing GG and maaaybe P4U at Game Pazza next Friday and entering GG at Frosty Faustings!
xerocool Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 Wow seems you had a rough night and glad to hear one of your friends is interested to play one of them. For the girl i think itll be best to start her off with a shooter and gradually get her into fighters Sent from the LG-Viper
TheSeltsamOne Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 (edited) Well she also did shit like not calling me back with info about the 3rd person when she said she would, showing up 3 hours late, pestering me for a drink of water in the middle of a match, and texting for almost the whole time. I think I'll just stick with people who actually want to play fighters for now. But after looking up a bunch of shit on Venom, I realized how little there is on this site for Bridget in comparison. Anybody know of any good extended guides for Bridget, specifically combos? Edited December 8, 2012 by TheSeltsamOne
xerocool Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 Marvel has me in a chokehold and its hurting my bb and p4a game . During winter imma have to at least get back to my old self . Sent from the LG-Viper
Zerashi Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 Well I think I should be able to make it to Ignite this Monday so whose going?
Kobayashi Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 (edited) I know Marc told me last night at GP that he was going to Ignite this Monday. Also, Shinsyn confirmed on FB that he'll make an appearance too. Edited December 8, 2012 by Kobayashi
xerocool Posted December 9, 2012 Posted December 9, 2012 I wont be able to go to ignite this monday Sent from my LG-LS840 using Tapatalk 2
GrantLe Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 (edited) I was bored so I decided to make a dustloop. Anyways I probably won't be able to make it to pazzo until the 21'st , but I'll come to ignite as much as possible when cps lets students out for holiday break. Edited December 10, 2012 by GrantLe

Glad you made an account and posted up! I'll be hitting up Ignite more often since it's easier for me to get there than it is for me to get to GP. Hope to see all you guys in the city that can show up to do so.
nobodyexe Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 I want to go to ignite, but it's like an hour drive for me with tolls.
Chris Chaos Posted December 10, 2012 Author Posted December 10, 2012 (edited) I wouldn't blame you for not coming out, I'm sure those tolls are a bitch. Just hit up the venue that's closest to you guys, get out there, meet up and play some games lol! EDIT: Also, I thought it would be beneficial to everyone if we had a Skype Group. I know a lot of people use it and it would make things SO much easier to find matches with each other when someone logs in. If you guys are down, let me know and I can create and invite you guys in it or at least those who's Skype I do not know. Edited December 10, 2012 by Shinsyn
