slow down, your actually doing it too fast. more precision and less mash ;)

Haha I found that out after much hand strain, although I can do it quite often now with Ryu I still fail at doing it with Sagat most of the time, not too sure why exactly. :(

I always thought Ryu's FADC/Ultra juggle had to be done lightning quick you see. :p
 
dunno, ken/ryu/sagat uppercut, FADC, ultra is all about the same timing. if only kens actually did decent damage then i would use it lol :o

I'm a retard at this and I can do it with Sagat in training (not in a real fight, I panic :()

lol I do that too, although in every single game I've been trying to do it as fast as possible with precision taking a backseat, I reckon with more practice and taking my time a bit more with the commands I'll be getting the ultra juggles done soon!

Still surprised at how much progress I've made since last month, not only can I throw out fireballs instead of uppercuts I can even do hurricane kicks on land and in-air without jumping backwards and doing a normal kick. :p

Meh Ryu/Sagat are still big works in progress, my Balrog is good now and my Blanka is pretty decent, just need to fix some of his combos as I keep leaving a gap in one of his cross ups which leaves me open. :o
 
Morning guys. Got my Catz SE stick yesterday and ........ I am just not getting on with it - need some advice.

Now I have never played SF in the arcades and never on a stick at home (always pad) so this is completely new to me. I have played with it for about 3 hours now and I just cannot get to grips with it at all. I can pull of the moves, but just so inconsistently it is just not true.

Fireball - most of the time I am doing a crouching punch and then when I move the stick further I jump. same with dragon punch.
spinning kicking - the same; sweep or jump kick.

I think one of the big issues for me is the fact that the stick moves in a square base and so you can't naturally swing the stick around - it goes to the corners. I thought that it would move in a circle or a octagonal base so you can feel when the stick is at the top, down forward, forward, down back, etc etc, positions. the difference in position between down forward, foward, forward up is just to small for me to be able to pull off precision moves and quickly. if there was a notch or something so I could feel when the stick was in the positions that I think I would find it easier.

I appreciate that it is me and not the stick, as top players use sticks. However has anybody else found this and any advice? Also I read that some people have modified the stick with Sanwa parts; what does this do and how did it help you?

Cheers in advance.

Edit: Just saw this video on you tube.


Around 4:30 it shows the 'restrictor plate' - clear plastic part that sits at the bottom of the joystick - it is clearly octagonal - can you buy these?

Edit - answered my own question - found one to buy and will do. Hopefully that will help. :)

I have this problem sometimes to, and whilst i can do it, it takes abit more effort and when am not concentrating i often fail when doing ultra/super combos.

Where did you find yours cause am sure it would help me out, but am very scared to do it myself haha.

I have bought an octagonal restrictor plate now and should get it next week. Got it from a place in the UK and they have loads in stock. Not sure I can mention them here as maybe competitor - though I think they sell completely different stuff to OcUK. can never be to careful though.

ordered a Sanwa Octagonal Restrictor Plate GT-Y

If you want to let me know your e-mail I will send you link. You can edit out e-mail once I have it.

As for fitting it - check out youtube - loadsa vids there - looks easy.:cool:

You and your annoying crouching blocking..

I swear to god theres no way to counter that at all, coming from the air you can do that spin kick anytime. even coming from normal ground attack still nothing can really get a hit.

Unless ryus usless vs Guile i have no idea..
 
The Crouch blocking was just messing around.
I heard you mumbling away but I couldnt make out what you were saying. (Dont use the headset - should do really).
 
Been playing around with tornado throws this morning like you recommended ojste, come up with some interesting ideas, also figured out another lead in to my 'bread and butter' combo.

Now i just need to actually use them in matches ;/
