Sparring mode cpu is too hard to practice fatal counter combos on. I would probably need to set the cpu jin to hell mode so I can spam 5A to make him DP C. I can see it working though. I don't think the problem will be from fatal counter combos. It's just the proration nerf on D specials, and the 5B nerf that really hurts her potential in this game. Which is why I said I only got high damage reliably off of mugen.

Oh right. I got astralled by cpu tager in arcade mode, and they actually burst randomly now. I feel Tsubaki's corner damage potential is more limited in this version. I couldn't find a way to use charge to extend combos. In CS1 I could use charge to extend the loop into a super unsafe ender. In CS2, well she was just better. In this version, The most I can get was 4000 something and that's using mugen. In fact, all of my combos that went into 4000 were from mugen. Anything else, I couldn't really reach there. Not at the moment at least. I think the proration rate for all the D moves got severely lessened if this is the case. EDIT: I guess regarding Kiba's combo I guess you could do a funny ender like j.236A j.214C after the j.CC. Maybe.

Okay so good news is she's better than CS1. Bad news is that's not much of an accomplishment haha. Now regarding combos...dp whiff into j.C is actually pretty strict. Like the timing for that isn't as easy as it seems. A lot more stricter than the current dp whiff combos in CS2. I couldn't do any of Kiba's combos. Throw combo into 2600 damage or w/e is easy though. Kiba's 5BB 2C 214D etc combo works until after the IAD j.CC part. At that point it drops. I have a hard time finding any practical application of using charge to extend damage other than the use of Mugen. Air mugen seems like a lol gimmick and seems to be much more charge-inefficient than the ground version. 5B is a lot more sluggish. You definitely feel it being slower. These are all that comes on top of my mind atm, and do note these are based solely on first impressions.

Okay anything after this post will not be seen until I come back later tonight.

I hear you like Arthur. And I hear you will like my Mai.

I can probably test all of them except the last one easily. I have a feeling the last one won't work at all lol. Well it opens in about 4 hours so I'll see what I can do. I will also need a list of charge combos that don't involve mugen.

So word is Southtown arcade here in Norcal will have BBCSEX and I may be going tomorrow to hang out with Honnou and play some KoF. If I happen to try out BBCSEX. What do you guys want me to test? Do note that I may not get to everyone's demands, and I may not have as much time as you think I have. I will go through a selective process in order to decide which demands I will actively test. I will probably not be able to give damage values. Also give me a basic list of BnBs that use charge, as a starter or a filler, from videos. I think I have a grasp on charge-less ones.

Should I show up to Southtown tomorrow? :o

Things should be hosted at Pizza Box. And have Davis' "3rd-strike Allen" as the main host. (Only me and Coopa would get this :X)

Ehhh, Streetwise is going on the same day with their own actual KoF tournament though lol.

Good old Greasemonkey + scripting done by zatic.

I should make a fake CSEX video using CS2. I wonder if people will notice a difference. I would use CS1 but CS1 was many times worse.

I hate to rate videos by PSR, but can we only allow 500+ PSR vids now? :D

Already fixed it, it's a very straight-forward process that only takes about 1-2 hours. You only have to apply thermal paste on the cpu and gpu after you use a heat gun on the board to allow it to reflow. After that, it's all re-assembly. With that said, I'm still getting a slim since this is the 2nd time I got a yellow light of death within a single year.

Hey guys! So my ps3 just got the yellow light of death (again) and I was wondering if any of you know any places in the Bay Area that will do a fix for it. Thanks!

She has heterochromia?

I'm always back in Milpitas during the weekends haha.

John Choi still plays on MAS sticks.

I'm okay with using Mugen. I dealt with it in CS1.

Why would you do that? lol go play with Demoninja, he's probably raging about kof.

Hey guys, what's up?

Same here :D

By lan play you mean you can link multiple ps3s together? Please give more details if you know about it.

Haha that's fine, I play all types of RTS, but I will play SC2 if other people want to play. I don't really mind if you are good or bad, if you want to play, we can play, just ask me :D PM me your info + messaging info (AIM, MSN, w/e) when you feel it's appropriate . Maybe...I dunno we will see I guess haha.
