Oh whoops, I meant (empty) forward jump in, not neutral jump. Neutral jump at that range is usually going to be DP'd.
ohhh word. I need to practice that distancing actually. I stopped doing that even though its a safe strategy because I'm trying to cut down on jumps and unsafe stuff in general.
Bill's stream randomly died =(
It's time to get these FG threads active again dammit! Keeping at least 1 fg thread in the sidebar at all times imo.

I actually knew this, but I was nervous and at the time, my first thought was "I can ex-chicken wing through that", then "no don't risk it: just block".
(This is the match Trumpet is talking about.)
Nguman (the ryu player), his spacing and auto-correct DPs were solid. I played him later with Ibuki and had a really hard time hitting him at neutral or scoring a knockdown. Lost a $2 casual money match 0-3. Seems like I can only beat him with Fei, now. (I strongly prefer Fei over Ibuki vs Ryu, anyway.)
Overall, I had some wins that I was happy about, and my losses weren't the result of me screwing up or playing particularly stupid.
Trumpet: I dropped Cody after the first week. Now I main Feibuki... well, mostly Fei, except against Guile, Zangief, T.Hawk, Sagat, Seth, and maybe Viper and Cammy, where I use Ibuki instead. Originally, Fei was supposed to be my counter-pick for Ibuki's hard matchups, but now I find I do a lot better with him against almost everyone.
I also learned today that Fei's EX-chicken wing gets him out of pretty much everything El Fuerte can do to him on his wake-up. >

... Wow I missed a LOT of anti-airs in that match... I don't even remember him jumping in on me that much, lol. Was thinking too much about the ground game, I guess.

great end on that match

how do you switch to your alternate costume? I want to play as ryu with the ripped shirt but it seems I can only select colors 1-10 of the gi or whatever it's called
also can you use like other ppls modded costumes in xbl play?

You have to buy them. One of the packs (the Brawler pack) is free though.

Went to my first legit tournament on Sunday, and of course it had to be Keystone 2 at San Jose Bar & Grill. Got owned, lost both my games, was pretty salty about it since it was on PS3 (so I had to borrow a friend's untested dualmod stick) and the venue was so loud you couldn't hear audio from your station. I would have felt better if I got eliminated by some known players, but I didn't =[

Ill add you when I get off work tonight. Hopeful this will give me a reason to play this damn game again. I've been playing 3's on ps2 with pad, I honestly love it so much more! Can't wait for the online edition some time next year.

Hey guys, Im new to this game and i just got my arcade stick with SSFIV on my ps3, any 1 can give me some tips or advice on how to train up like how to do option select or fadc ? Thanks.
|
i have a question about costumes:
if you buy ssf4, you only get the "original" costume? you don't get anything else? i really want ryu's ripped shirt costume but i can only have it if i have a sf4 save file on my xbox?
gay
and ryu's 2nd costume is that shitty farmer costume so not interested in buying that either

really i'd learn combos first tbh. fadc pretty much comes with learning combos for your character. learn what buttons are good in what situations for your character (ex. as abel i would rarely use far s.MP but vs akuma that button is insanely good in stopping akumas s.rh which normally gives abel an extremely hard time). then i guess learn what types of defensive options your character has.
not really good with explaining how to learn stuff tbh . as for OS's it depends on your character. gonna have to tell us who you use or go to srk character discussion threads

unless the 360 version costumes were free for the ps3 people u had to buy the first set of costumes during the vanilla days (the srk pack with pimpsuit ken, training gear dan, ripped shirt ryu). once u activated it and it worked it should be saved and available to use when u put in ssf4

dragoonkf: I wouldn't worry about combos or option selects that much to start with, but of course that depends on the character. Depending on your familiarity with fighting games, it's probably sufficient for now to just practice a few basic combos and punishes. The first things to really learn, in order, are:
1) Basic defense -- blocking the right way and teching throws
2) Basic game flow -- not jumping around all the time for no reason, not backing yourself into a corner, understanding distances, reading the opponent
3) Matchups -- what to do in character X vs. character Y, what moves are good, situations to avoid and situations to try to get into
exalted: I think you can buy the SF4 DLC without having the game or a save? If you have the SF4 alternate costumes, they will be usable in SSF4, afaik.
