Can't unsee.

Alright, you've got me, Ruben. Only other thing I would think of would be matchup experience. Knowing someone local plays a certain character in the area would be nice. But I have a Rag-Bro now, so its all good. I have Overdrive combos that I never seem to be in a good position to use. Da salt. My midscreen is still ass unless I have meter, so I suppose I'll work on that before Friday.

Well, it doesn't REALLY matter, but for people that have questions or want to get offline experience vs certain characters, it may be handy. Like if I wanted to ask somebody questions about Ragna, which I do sorta, I know who I can bounce ideas off of, or if I want to fight Tager for whatever reason.... Not necessary, but it has situational usefulness. I honestly do want to find another Ragna in the area, come to think of it.

I know what you mean about the tenacity thing. I hate playing online, so my only opportunity to play other people is at Ruben's at the moment. With previous games, I didn't really like the games enough to warrant practicing. I think this time around may be different. Or at least hoping.

Kyaha, I barely manage to make it to Ruben's when he lives down the street. Tucson's a bit of a stretch for me. I'll have to sit out this round.

So I FINALLY hit training mode for a little bit yesterday (less than an hour, but that's a milestone for me >_>) and I've finally got some pretty decent stuff down, including better combos and pressuring tools. I feel like Ragna benefits quite a bit from OD, so I'm interested in trying it against a live person. It feel like it helps immensely in lieu of using meter for some things and nets more damage, and the life regen is pretty good...plus with the cooldown not being quite as long for OD cancels as bursts....yeah, need to get some matches in. On that note, anything on the agenda this weekend?

Yay, something even more boring than Nu Mirror Grand Finals in CT. LoL. Hopefully its all just madd overreacting. But then again, I've only seen the setup, not an actual match, and even though I bought the DLC, I haven't touched it yet.

I don't think any of my stuff actually got used last time. I'll plan to bring my console, and if I actually need to bring a monitor, text me or message me on Facebook.

There's a string of videos on my Facebook from people goofing around in training mode. It looks like most characters that can get out have to use a super. Valk, Haku, Amane, Terumi, Jin Astral escapes: Arakune, Tsubaki, Izayoi, Azrael (as a punish after Growler) Carl can use that slide move thingie. Well, time for some much-needed practice from me. What time is the gathering tomorrow, Ruben? (or anyone that knows)

Yo, dafuq happened here? EDIT: After closer inspection, there's one of Amane doing the same thing, but it looks like if you move her a certain distance, the setup does nothing.

GGz, gents. I played slightly less like ass. Hack-Man is pretty sweet. I'd like to play him or Kagura. I've come to accept that I will never actually sit and practice enough to achieve my dream of playing Tao. Also, after actually playing against Bullet, it SEEMS like she has pretty good normals, but it was my first time fighting her (and Relius) at all, so I might just not know what I'm doing. Looks like fun. The ranbat is inevitable.

Kagura appears to be fairly easy to pick up at least. I had less practice time with him than I'd hoped, so I'm definitely not ready to play him tonight. Might be prepped by Friday. Unfortunately, I'm having an identity crisis and still want to try other characters. I do LIKE Kagura, though. I just have to get used to not having a 5B with godlike range. 1st world problems. I've already played this game more than Persona, which isn't saying much, I know. But I think I'll actually stick with it and play with you guys pretty often. Just have to figure out who I'm playing. Edit: Kokonoe was on the character select screen when I left for work earlier, but wasn't on the store, so she should be up by the time I get home, if she isn't already.

Well, she releases on the 7th, which would be during the 6th of our actual day...unless the people posting the release date are compensating for the time difference and she literally releases on the 7th for us, but I think/hope that's thinking too far into it. Either way, my JP PSN acct should already have the money added and I should have her by the next gathering immediately after the release. I don't always show up for gatherings, but when I do, I have all the extra characters, lol.

Sorry, I couldn't resist. Hey, Kokonoe should be released in time for the gathering. Anyone else getting dat dlc?

I won't be there all that long considering I have to be up sorta early, but I have a standby setup. Game, or monitor, or both, just let me know. 11 will be the latest for me to stay though, so I should probably be a backup.

I think Kagura's hilarious, and I dig the normals and stuff, so I want to at least sub him. I need to actually sit down with Ragna and learn his changes, since I haven't serious sat down with a BB game since I met everyone back in CS1. I should really spend more than 10 minutes with my actual main before going to gatherings, LOL. Not being able to jump cancel 6A on block is KILLING me and even though not gatling to 6B isn't anything NEW, I haven't played a BB since before that was taken out. Gonna see if I can grind out some bad habits before Wednesday. Edit: Ruben, one does not simply expect 1 or 2 setups.

Yeah, I hate being indecisive. Interested In: Tao, Kagura, Hack-man, Tsubaki, Terumi, Characters I might actually not suck with: Jin, Mu, Litchi In all seriousness, I might TRY Bullet at some point, but I'm really not counting on much coming from that. But then again, Ragna was the 2nd to last character I thought I'd play in CT.

I'm interested in Wednesday. What time are we talking? I haven't touched the game since the last time I played with you guys. >_> I consider the characters I'm interested in learning, never decide where to start, and do something else. That and I imported Final Fantasy Type-0 finally and kinda got stuck on that. Two days to learn a new character, here I go!

Fun stuff, folks. Glad I actually managed to make it out, even though I'm a little behind everyone else. Hopefully I conclude my character experimentation by the next time I show up and get fluent enough with said character to put up a decent fight. I'm really bad at sitting down and practicing, so we'll see how that goes. I really do like the game, though.

Darn, was hoping to get out of it. Lol. Kagura's charges seem to be really short, though, so its not too bad. Most of his moves are technically just normals in his stances. Memorizing that part seems to be the pain.

I can confirm PS3 + Game (I have a digital copy). Ruben, I'll probably be there in the 6:30-7 range. Facebook me if I need to bring a monitor. I'll be packing stuff up this afternoon and may not think to check here before I leave.

I'm looking at an 83% download atm. Assuming I don't duck out at the last second again, I'll have my PS3 and copy of the game.

Yo, gents. What's the setup situation looking like? I'm feeling lazy and would love to skimp out of bring a monitor if I can help it. More importantly, I'm moving Sunday and probably won't be staying too long if I do show up...

Looks like I've gotta bail on you guys tonight. I'm actually not feeling too well. And Ruben, I can at least confirm that I DO have your new address, at least.
