Well if you say you`re a skilled amateur that is not interested in tournaments (like me) what`s the problem in using standard bnb`s that work on most of the characters. Sure you lose some dmg but who cares? I played JO in GG who has more character specific combos then all BB characters combined together and yet i used a standard bnb most of the time, while it`s still fun to experiment and try some new stuff. It`s fun having options, it allows different strategies and different playstyles of same characters. And BB doesn`t need to be more simple. Seriuosly, it can`t get more simple than this. That`s why are they adding an easy mode in CS because i`m guessing that BB will get more complex over time while still retaining easy execution (5 frame buffer, ridicolously long hitstop).

Even though i switched to BB, after 3-4 years of GG (mainly JO) i must confess it really feels like a simplified/dumbed down version of gg (maybe too much). The lack of options just makes the game a little boring. Hell, i`ll go ahead and say Melty Blood is more interesting and more difficult to play. Even though it has low execution requirement. Maybe i`m wrong but that`s just me. It`s just there is more stuff to do there even though it`s considered a simple game. I understand that BB has been made more simple to please a broader audience but maybe a little too much. I`m even starting to think that sucess of BB has little to do with the fact it`s simple. It`s more like good marketing, good online play, next gen consoles, HD sprites and stuff like that. If GG had that, it would be played same as this game, i mean casual players use 10-30% of the character capabilities or just mash buttons in BB so i fail to see how would learning curve affect casuals. Or they could have made an easy mode or something. Just look at SF4. Nobody gives a shit about 1 frame links, difficult viper stuff, gen advanced stuff, etc... The online play consists of Ken army which mash random dp`s or ultras. So why would anyone give a shit about GG frc`s, and advanced combos? And yet SF4 is succefull game. Still quite simple, but no casual cares about advanced stuff anyway. Just my 2 cents... sorry for potential mistake, english not my primary

As much as i would love to see AC on pc and ps3 i don`t think they`re gonna do that. At least not soon. IMHO alot of old GG players would just dump BB for AC with good netplay. I know i would.

One question about mugen (i`ve never played the game just watched alot of vids). Would it be possible to punish a DP (inferno divider, jin`s dp...) with it? You block a dp, enter mugen and then unleash some death or near death combo?

I played in ad-hoc alot with my friends. Even if you are both same lvl you will lvl up faster. I don`t know why, but it`s definitly faster than single player, alot.

I know this will sound like a stupid question, but, can you meaty Johnny`s 5D? you know like 2k on wakeup.

The only thing i don`t understand in this game is, what does affect the critical rate? The only thing i`m sure is, when you deflect someones atack(or parry anything with jecht`s parry move) , and hit him afterwards the critical rate is definitly increased.

Also if you don`t want to mash, play Jecht, because his brave strings suck without the just timing. Also third part of the string can be canceled with a HP atack so theres one more reason to do the just frame strings (well not really just frame, i think it`s like a 3-4 frame window).

Sorry for reviving this thread, i just wanted to ask if someone can share some RCed TK ensenga corner combos. I don`t know i just do TK ensenga rc, dash in K,D ensenga. I know there were some combos on the old Johnny tutorial vid for #R but couldn`t find it anywhere.

I`ll take that into consideration too. Thanks for the help.

Well i thought using it mainly for GG on ps3 and pc (i have read that it supports pc too), VF5 sometimes, and blazblue when it comes out for the consoles. That`s it i think.

I`m planning to buy a hrap3 stick. This is my first stick, and i wanna hear what do you guys think about it. Is it any good? I read somewhere that the hori buttons are not so good, and alot of people swap them with sanwa. Does it really matter for me since it`s my first stick? I will swap them too, but i`m planning to do that after the hori buttons die or something. Do you recommend any other mods for this stick? octagonal gate? I wanted to buy a hrap3:SA from akihabarashop but unfortunately my country is not supported by Paypal.

I`ve been playing alot with Jecht against my friend, i don`t know if anyone noticed but it seems like he has something like "just frames" on his circle strings? anyone else tried? i was really surprised to see something like that in this game.

Is the HRAP3 stick good for GGXX ? I`m going to finally buy a stick, and i don`t know which one, since i have 0 experience with sticks. Any advice?

A3 what pad do you use? regular ps2 dualshock or something else?

YOHBadguy i saw you online. You`re from Serbia right? foreign language mode: Ako jesi, ja sam te stavio u svoj messenger pa kad te bude volja cimni da vidimo da probamo da napravimo to. Koliko sam primjetio uspio si da patchujes sve kako treba medjutim, vidim da je na character selection screen islo jako sporo, a poslije toga nije ni moglo. Neznam kakav PC/tip konekcije imas mada mislim da je problem u tome. On the other note: GG`s to everyone i played, especially Kazik nice Chipp. Anji47`s Pot owns me btw.
