Mightfo

since you're in fort worth(where zreb is) on weekends, and amtatma(jin player) said he'd start being available within a week or two from now, so maybe you guys should do little 3(ALL YOU NEED~) man meetups on sundays or something oh well, maybe hokuto saturday after. more likely to have cheebz/ronin with their ps2 sticks then anyway. lmao YES i needed that sprite. i havent played pokemon since yellow and some of b&w's hilarious/amazing pokemon make me want to play it again alright, thanks for the info

grooves, burst gauge being used to help offense > some shit that doesnt matter with input

lmao im a dumb turkey i forgot that ahhh well i could easily email the files from my netbook to whoever's hosting next :P

http://www.gamefaqs.com/ps3/976861-fist-of-the-north-star-kens-rage/faqs/61246 holy shit i need that new hokuto no ken musou game

http://www.andriasang.com/e/blog/2010/11/10/phantom_breaker/ more info about the game -"quick" and "hard" grooves -special attacks require no commands, just button presses -"has advanced elements like countering and guard breaking" -burst gauge, built up by beating on your foe, can be used to strengthen specials or burst out a combo

Friday confirmed: Zreb Johnny Friday Probably: Ice Friday Maybe: Boombox Aloha Ronin(Right? btw is cheebz coming?) Supaa(will come to at least one he said) Transient(will you need a ride or something..?) Dances Rave, Adam Bishop with oso??? Friday needs a ride: Jet I think oso?? i cant find the text that indicated this though Want to know: Outlaw(i assume you can do saturday but not friday?) Exceed(do you just go to the srk meetups every week or something) Danni(you said you may or may not come saturday, i assume you can't friday?) So, minimum: 3 including me, maximum in theory:18 Likely: Probably about 9. So, will need 3 setups. Zreb and I=2, people who could possibly bring the third setup: boombox(always a hero) ice(i'm theorizing here, but he could probably bring his ps3 at least..) supaa(ps3, monitor) ronin(ps2 setup, plus if dances with ninja has a hokuto no ken copy like he sounds like he does, we could play that for KITCHEN HOKUTO NO KENNNN) Also, danisen thing is sounding kind of cool. Question, though. Are victories for ranking up weighted by what Dan you fought? Like, a 10th dan winning against a 1st dan should only advance half a point or something, right? as for keeping up with dan ranks at meetup, i guess i have a little netbook people can quickly type on also, ready for boombox to have like 6 dans due to it being character based, haha Added DwN to the front post. Also: Normally I don't play online, but adding some money makes me a little more receptive to it, haha. probably will eventually participate in this.

better question: will this even remotely compare with the bajillion decent fighters already out/which will be out on consoles soon/which we can dream about being on consoles when all we know about this is "simple controls" probably not. but hey, maybe i'll shit myself from footage later. we'll see.

designs looking ok, screenshots look pretty though we cant see them that well while i'm not fucked by games like this and kof2002um being xbox only, it prevents them from being played that much in my area since most of the guys here are ps3lords but again, dont care that much until i hear system info/watch it in action i just see one gauge besides health at the bottom, so may not have unique meter based stuff like ah1/2 or daemon bride or specific characters in other games, but we'll see no arcade release is lolwut. i suspect it wont be that special since its probably not a serious fighter

Any idea when the next characters will be announced? They said they'd be doing 2 a month at least..

lmao i expect you to kick my ass but i want to play anyway.

sounds like you're scared of getting bodied by someone who has like 3 whole netplay sessions of experience under his belt

ronin you and i need to play kof2002um get your ass over here

Danisen thing sounds a bit better, but I'll let you guys who actually know about this stuff talk about it more and decide, I'll go along with whatever I suppose, generally sounds good. ALSO OSO/RONIN DID YOU GET KOF2002UM ARE YOU COMING FRIDAY SO WE CAN PLAY IT SOME also ronin are you gonna play much makoto next time? speaking of which, did you see those gdlk makoto combos? i like how her typical combo is just 1800-2400 damage but then off certain things she gets fucking insane damage ps what did you guys think of daemon bride also in case you didnt watch it and it's a short bit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-FZ1fyX5XE#t=1m30s ASH COMBOO

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMTDHZML8Hk lmaooo this shit is hilarious, especially the last match

it has like a bunny girl and an elf and then some character's sidekicks SURELY THAT IS A DECENT AMOUNT OF MOE i'm so upset this game has been out for so long but has no port. i watch footage and it looks fucking awesome. i don't get a "obnoxious v-13/sagat" feel from the zoning, i like a lot of it. though i've seen a few runaway-heavy periods in matches, but nowhere near common enough to stop my boner from being huge. hopefully examu will port it after ah3. AH3 getting a port itself was a surprise.

wtf is with my affinity for posting video posts at the ends of pages PEOPLE WHO ARE BEING LAZY AND SKIMMING AROUND AND M ISSED MY LAST VIDEO POST http://www.dustloop.com/forums/showthread.php?9422-Dallas-Fort-Worth-Thread&p=828954#post828954 I'd like that, though I'll probably not play it much this week if it's there due to litchi/kof2002um. litchi feels like freedom incarnate. omg d cancels and shit. fucking signed. that pissed me off ps did you see the daemon bride footage and ah3 footage, ronin also ill get you a batch of kamui footage later ALSO I MISSED A VIDEO http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNgCnQ7ajK4&feature=player_embedded#! Good kof2002 match. PS RONIN, OSO DID YOU BUY KOF2002UM i did and have played some too, soo good

Regarding yulecon: Eh, I think I'd rather just host Friday than go to Yulecon. Plus, $20, 4 o clock when I could start earlier for free with my own comfort and possibly more setups, eh. Be sure to make semi-serious/serious BB players there aware of the dustloop thread for us though, Brandi. Also, in case you're wondering jet/whatever, I can't do saturday, geo field trip. Regarding ranbats: Sorry for being so free, but what exactly is a ranbat, anyway? IIRC I've watched melty ranbats on spooky's stream..they had points and shit but I was unsure what was going on aside from gdlk matches. VIDEO TIIIME FOR BOOMBOX, RONIN, AND OTHERS INTERESTED IN MAKOTO: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfPGF0vZaWE Makoto gets some fucking sickkk damage off certain counter hits depending on proximity to corner/heat. punish shitttt FOR EVERYONE BECAUSE AWESOME: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1RUhslvffs#t=2m24s god FUCK YES TIME ARCANA. (Basically, when you fully charge a 5e/2e with time arcana, it creates a sort of mirror image attack which you can delay as long as you have E held down. Great for all sorts of shit. Tickthrows, blockstrings, mixup, combos, zoning, etc. rest of the vid is good stuff too. ESPECIALLY the catherine vs weiß, some fucking awesome shit happens there. Definitely watch some of that. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXfPKvPi0t4#t=1m50 Even better. AWESOME mei-fang vs akane, both time, match. good backdash catches(and a failed one), some great mixup. First match is clarice vs clarice, also good, but i just gotta show off time arcana. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-FZ1fyX5XE#t=1m30s KOF13, DAT GDLK ASH COMBO. Hyper drive actually lowers charge time a ton, thus ash or leona or whoever can do some amazing combos and probably blockstrings. also FUCK YEAH at what looks like leona instant overhead into super 3:17 in Have only watched the first match, but it looks like the rest of the vid is good judging from that. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NR7KvY0QTc#t=1m30s LK Vs Kyle! GOOD SHIT. Shoutouts to people both being able to block a ton of litchi mixup in the corner as well as falling to straight through's low after a staff 3c even though that's her only non-mid after it. Commentators were ok. said some things that were just wrong(5c[e] 623d/421d 5c is a frame trap? lmao that'd be so broken), but whatever. There's some other matches from SBR for bb, haven't watched them yet. http://shoryuken.com/content/tekken-tag-tournament-2-demo-footage-confirms-paul-law-king-armor-king-all-kinds-awesome-2341/ damn, tekken tag 2 looks like it has some interesting assist interaction and assists can do unblockables! unblockable resets incoming!? anyone interested in an akane video showing mostly meaty projectile oki->cancel->crossup shenanigans and some combos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUj8QPdnzqs#t=1m05s Note for Sin arcana: The arcana does more damage in extend force mode if you have less life, thus the awfhaiowfhoaw sin combos. GDLK time arcana combo 7:30 in. AND NOW, MYSTERY AWESOME FIGHTER FEW OF YOU HAVE HEARD OF/SEEN MUCH OF DESPITE COMING OUT IN LIKE 09: DAEMON BRIDE, made by examu. Now, judging by "bride" and "examu" you might think this is another loli extravaganza like ah3. NOPE, WRONG http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0_ccwXNyqg Bow guy versus two swords guy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihQcF28IvxE RUSH THAT SHIT DOWNN some sword guy who luckily(imo) doesnt have his wings on his sprite, versus monsterguy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzsasM300Ts Laserswordgun girl versus Big tits, big kicks girl. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66EsmJHvZp4 Eve again versus guy with huge gauntlet. goddd eve is awesome Then Scythegirl versus fistguy. Then Scythegirl versus spidermonsterguy. godd dat scythespin at 9:18 is meaty as fuck The game has: -EX moves(bottom meter is normal heat) -Drive esque button where people do attacks(most of their projectiles and some fancy moves which are often + frames) which take up the bar above their heat bar, which regens. -High air mobility, got some 8 way dashes and stuff. -Fuckign tons of projectiles. Game has some awesome zoning. Interestingly, it takes some inspiration from that touhou fighter I think, you can airdash thruogh projectiles, "Grazing" them. You may think this would break zoning, but it doesn't. -divekicks and other heavy attacks that dont fucking suck -Good ground pressure and oki. -Looks like it has a pushblock like Vampire Savior and TvC, though not as common as those games, which is nice. GOOD MOBILITY, ZONING, AND GROUND PRESSURE? GSDJGOJFO MOORE FOOTAGEEE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yoSqBL_gis&feature=related Dual swords guy versus Pekomaru(skullhead monster) Then scythegirl versus bowguy (asdfsdf 3:17 that scythe spin is so meaty, fuck yo pushblock) then some girl with scissors asdf versus pekomaru edit: whoops, there's also squidfistguy versus laserswordgun girl, which is awesome http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmrk-LY4DXM Despite being examu, the game has two monster characters which I actually like a lot, unlike the usual arakune sort of character who I am sort of meh for. First match owns. Havent seen second match, whcih is spidermonster versus scissorsbtich http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OwTGIPU8jd8 Rushdown swordguy again versus fuckign squid arm man. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvkYAa5nG_g eve being awesome (versus squid guy) (also jesus squid guy's zoning does good damage, it rapes his "drive" bar though) Squid guy is aesome too. I want to play Eve, the girl with big kicks and tits, because fuck yeah: -awesome divekick -awesome slide -awesome array of projectiels for zoning, + frames, crossups, -projectile that eats other proejctiles -good groudn pressure/mixup -dat kick range Emelia looks good too. bad news: no sign of a port so far, game hasn't really hit top 10 in arcades for very long either(was #9 at a point or two iirc). hopefully examu will port after ah3. i want this so fucking bad but yeah, i'm fucking hype for friday now that i have a decent feel for litchi. boombox says he's a maybe for the meetup.

Jet, you said you can host saturday, right? i texted a bunch of people saying i'd host friday and you'd host saturday.

ALRIGHT YOU BIG GAY TURKEYS I'M HOSTING A MEETUP ON FRIDAY THE 12th, 3-8ish PM. Will probably host saturday the following week, the 20th. I EXPECT A BUNCH OF YOU TO BE THERE SO WE CAN BUY PIZZA AND PURPLE THROW OSO AND TAGER MIRRORS AND LEGIT MIXUP AND ALL THAT JAZZ. Also, I'll run KOF2002UM some on my 360 if Oso/Ronin/whoever can play it comes. Who is coming and can bring setups? I assume zreb can. Lastly, bring your own controllers, just to be safe. I got my ps2->ps3 converters, too. Like Ronin said, just practice more, you'll get good at it pretty quick. I largely adjusted to that stick with practice across 2-4 days where I had a couple hours of free time to spare. Plus, it was fun, somehow. i was ignoring your posts as trolling before, but yeah, it's at least worth it for at least one of us to be at each nearby tourney so people are aware of the scene we haev here. tourneys are good and all, but for me, playing someone seriously several times in a row is more enjoyable because of the development. but yeah, unless it's something like season's beatings or final round, $35 was just out of my league, and more importantly: i had to work on papers most of friday-sunday, sooo. Videos of stuff coming soon in a new post! Going to have some hype shit.

I'll very likely host friday. I'll make a post about this by tomorrow night. Looking forward to playing again~ Looking forward to some KOF2002UM too, if anyone who plays that(Oso? Ronin?) comes friday.

did it bomb in arcades or something? how do we know they don't care about it? the lack of console port? i mean, they obviously cared about ah2 even if they did some dickish things, but they didnt care enough about console ports to do a good console port of that

explain

holy shit i watch one fucking video and i already understand that this game is fucking awesome eve owns, kureha is awesome too please please examu make a port like ah3 edit: watched more videos. jesus, i need this game.

For low-combo casual play below 150ms, it's fine. If you've played a lot of serious kof2002 before, probably not. IMO it's better than SF4/TVC netcode, but not as good as NGBC/BB Also, who all has crossup-possible dashes besides lin and chris?
