Well that's a load of rubbish right there

Why (genuinely)? Even Kreeee said that there are unblockable attacks in this game supposedly?
Whereas if you did the same in SF4 (i.e. block/tech throw) you cannot be punished as easily?

EDIT: Marn did add that defense is more about not getting hit/evading.
 
You don't "mash buttons" to do unblockables... and if you run away and "zone" (lol) then you won't get hit by the unblockables as they all require a point and an assist to be right next to you.

Oi, I said that you defend by not getting hit before him :p

Also, if you mash buttons, I'll just walk all over you. it's akin to beating crouch techers in SFIV.

Had a 9 hour session today. Phoenix in X-Factor is clearly more broken than Sentinel, by miles!

She kills your team in 1 simple combo each (doing 1.3 million), and she heals insanely fast with the heal super and X-Factor.

Anyone whining about Sentinel needs to play a half decent Phoenix player, even in non-resurrection mode!

I am not complaining about sentinel, to be honest all characters have one hit kill combo in x factor mode anyway. Although I like that but they really need to sort out the chip damage. It's way too much In x factor

you don't even need x factor to one combo kill the majority of the cast, not as Sentinel btw, these are my findings with Magneto
 
Woke up to this this morning :D !

Yet to play though. Just had a couple of questions:

Do any of you lads use the traditional 360 controller to play? I myself havent played a 2-d fighter this gen and was wondering if the d-pad really is that shocking to use.

If it is, is it worth picking up one of the SS4 controllers with d-pad only ( can't really justify a full on arcade stick).

Gamertag is bholliday

Lets fight!

I use my SF4 pad, playing with it's d-pad is so much easier to pull off moves.
 
I managed to play the game yesterday. Very impressed at how fun it is. What I really like about it is how intuitive the combo system is. It seems that you could spend hours in the training mode trying to work out which moves chain into each other. It's a contrast with a game like BlazBlue where on the contrary, it's very unintuitive to work out which specials cancel into each other.

I can't really comment on balance, but I can definitely see that Dante is a very noob friendly character. Some of his combos are so easy to do and yet do such ridiculous damage.

I think I liked Haggar the most though.

How are you finding Mags?

I'm still looking for a third character, thinking of Ammy, Mags or Doom.

Mags is fantastic, I can now do his dash cancel and fly combos flawlessly, just gotta work out which ones only work in the corner now though, really like him!

He can keepaway pretty good too and that throw of his is really good.
 
I find the combos on the srk magneto thread really difficult to do.


eg

Midscreen - No Assist Required
S, [j.H, air dash forward, j.M, j.H, land] x 3-4, s.H, EM Disruptor

The loop part i can do twice - it really reminds me of RSF.


Midscreen - No Assist Required
S, j.H, air dash down forward, j.H, land, S, j.M, j.M, j.H, j.S

I can't even get the second j.H to hit
 
The second one has REAAAAAAALLY odd timing and the first one seems really character dependant, I can barely even get the second part of the loop to hit on Wolverine, easy to get 3-4 on Sent though
 
ggs everyone today.

kreeeee have noted the magic throw in ssf4 has been replace by the magic series (weak, med, strong) in mvc3 as the new online tactics.

so i would try to avoid that as much as possible. although i dont know the game well enough to do stuff that actually works

Isn't light, medium, heavy, launcher the bnb way to inflict damage?
 
You can punish a lot of characters heavy and almost all characters launcher. Do something like l l m to hit confirm into h s if you hit. No one is currently punishing the unsafe magic series ending though.

Try it in training against characters with instant beam supers.
