    Eastern time? But yeah, that's fine. Might end up playing all together with Force if he comes back online.

    Skullgirls on PC. But yeah, I'd give KI props, too.

    Here's hoping that USFIV adds it in, and it becomes a standard...

    If only this was the standard for all fighting games... along with frame data.

    From the comments on SRK-

    "The quicker players can go from “scrub” to “high level” the better it is for everyone both online and offline. There is NO downside whatsoever from having a big pool of knowledgeable and very skilled players. Well, the only downside is that it becomes much harder for a good player to get top 8 lol."

    Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate shows extensive frame data and is still quite lively. His argument that it will affect or determine a game's lifespan is invalid.

    If Namco can provide frame data in a strategy guide, they can provide it in-game. We have next-gen conoles out so it's not like it's an impossible or unreasonable task to carry out in the future.
    I'm still interested in playing you. What times are good for you? I get home around 5 pm est during weekdays except friday and usually open whenever on weekends unless something comes up.

    Ah. How does 6 PM EST tomorrow (February 5 Wednesday) sound? We can keep adjusting the time if that doesn't work.

    I would play you now, but I'm beat from taking my ASVAB this morning. I probably wouldn't be too much of a match with my brain fried. X_X

    Referring to the SF thing going on? Es so bad....it's like they're marketing fighting games to 8 year olds.
    The concept of Ranked needs to be banished forever- or at least seriously reconsidered.

    Maybe if every single online match were ranked no matter what kind of play?
    DrakeAldan

    Well, for one- make them FT2, at the very least.

    The nature of Ranked is not a conducive learning environment; it gives new players the wrong idea about the game, and "randoms out" anyone but the most experienced players.

    To add insult to injury, Ranked is usually the most populated mode in a lot of games- it splits the playerbase.

    The game should be subconsciously guiding you to improvement- instead, developers don't seem to be paying attention to the consequences of their actions: an environment that breeds elitism, exclusionary behavior, and worst of all- "online warriors".
    Hey! Haven't seen you on FSD in a while. Done with DOA or something?
    DrakeAldan
    DrakeAldan
    Yeah, I guess so. You'd have to schedule it, but yeah.

    I'll be surprised if I still remember anything ._.

    You left FSD so dramatically I was actually worried. You were very informational. But we can always play SC, a place where the netcode is great.

    We should play DOA again Drake, the netcode just got patched!

    Ranked everywhere is terrible. Online is such an inconvenience...
    DrakeAldan
    DrakeAldan
    Even with SCV... I have enough experience now that it doesn't bother me, but if I were starting out, there's still the threat of being randomed out and not learning anything. And then the guy vanishes, and you don't get a rematch. If you're not analyzing that replay, you're not getting anything at all.

    I never leveled up in Ranked- just in (extended sets) player matches... and in a lot of games Ranked tends to be the more popular/available game mode, which is distressing, especially if you don't know anybody.

    I guess I can see what you're talking about. But what made SCV better was the replays for when I was thinking, why did I get smacked so bad, etc. So, I don't feel this applies as badly for SCV, I learned pretty quickly after getting it.
    If you get wrecked the whole set... do you still say "GG" afterwards?

    Yes we do. I am still getting situated in my new place so I will update you.

    I used to say GG no matter what. I only say it unless I feel the games were actually close or fun, otherwise the phrase wouldn't mean anything to me. If I get stomped and don't say gg it's usually a simple "thanks for playing me, was fun"

    and then your opponent who beat you, tea bags you and calls you trash, destroying your confidence and the will to get better. at least for me :/

    I used to hate that back in the days when I was still learning the game. They just some sore loser that think they're the shit lol.@green extreme
    Why does the highest execution game have the largest fanbase? Mysteries of life, I suppose...

    A dangerous thing to aim for I tells ya.
    From what I can tell, offline is the only way to get to know people here... At the very least you want to be getting into player matches with people from here as often as you can, but that doesn't really go anywhere tbh.
    Being good is fine and all... just don't expect anyone to take notice of you.

    You'll have a much better time of things without worrying about what people here, or anybody from the FGC for that matter, thinks of you... IMO.

    @EyeofCalamity hey, I'm in the same boat. I'm playing AE on PC to get used to things before March or whatever, all on pad.

    I'll switch to stick when... who am I kidding, I don't play stick.
    Drake could I make a question? Some time ago I did Guard Burst someone with Pat A+B, the opponent shouldn't receive damage, but he did, worthy nothing to say that I was attempting the A+B glitch.
    DrakeAldan
    DrakeAldan
    if you use glitch A+B you hit twice. so, the first hit broke guard, and the second hit... hit.
