I used to play quite a bit of VF2 back on the Saturn but stepped away from it for 3 and 4. Played VF5 on the Xbox for about a week until the frustration of using the pad was enough to make me sell it. I don't have an issue with the PS3 pad as such but I know trying to JG in SC5 or shaking...

Sold my SC5 game, never had an arcade stick before but figure i'll probably be better off using one especially for VF5. LoneWolfTifa, is this the stick you mean? Quite like the look of this but is there a base version of this without the SC5 decal overlay?

With VF5:FS on the horizon and being somewhat new to the franchise I want to start playing with an arcade stick rather than a joypad. Want something thats known to be good so i'm expecting a lot of Hori suggestions, have my eye on this stick at the moment: Real Arcade Pro V3 SA Sold...

Does anyone know if auto-fire helps to break throws? Came across a guy online yesterday using Ivy, they wern't exactly the best of players but what seemed a bit suspect was how easily this person was breaking throw attempts. Out of around 30 throw attempts not one connected, could someone with...

52: You can legally kick any A1 ranked player from player matches for being 'too good' before they've even played.

lmao, i've not tried it yet but please tell me this is true. Patch into a broken Hilde :sc4hil1: Using her after the patch, I don't know if it's just my imagination but [A+B] actually seems faster.

I wouldn't write her off just yet, i'm not overly happy with the changes to [A+B], 66K or 3A as they directly affect the way I apply presure. What i'm seeing though is more emphasis on combo potential, something which drew me to her play style in SC4.

Wonder how long this lengthened freeze is for second hit. Long enough to pop to the toilet and return and still manage to sidestep I would imagine. Liking the sound of what they have done to 3bA+B+K though, should open up some new combo posibilities without having to faff about with G to turn her.

I'm no expert but in close Hilde is more about interrupts than pokes in my experience at least. Baiting whiffs is her strength at range due to 22_88A and C3BA as example punishers. Her mixup game isn't the best so CQ for extended periods of time should be avoided or you will have your luck tested.

Give Hilde back 22_88AB Remove automated 2nd hit on C3A Make 2AB stun on counter rather than knockdown Would be enough to make me happy, I can dream though right?

The only shoulder button I use is L1 A|B|X|Y are all default, L1 is A+B+K. (You need to remove binds from R2 as the pad is rested, will get used by accident) Pad is held down on a surface like my leg and right-hand forms a 'claw' of sorts over the buttons. Works well for me, been using the...

4A 2A 66K Each of these work well, 1K is a good close range poke which puts you at +1 (i think) on hit but it doen't work as an interrupt like 2A.

Sarcasm doesn't hide facts.

Your Tira has eaten my Hilde's shit on several occasions, beating 'someone on your level' is besides the point. Taunting doesn't put you at any disadvantage so taking time to taunt is irrelevant and just uncalled for. I never said lose on purpose but if thats the position you think you put...

Oh I see the reference, waited for that. Choosing PO, hammering 44b / 22_88b over numerous fights was tedious at best. Fair enough you beat me and the other guy in the room many times. If it was simply due to losing, I would have left after 1st or 2nd loss not 10 fights later. But no, by...

Well outside of him i'm gonna say Maxi, button mashers unite! Your favourite 'hit any button' character for combos is actually quite strong in this iteration of SC.

I'm gonna buck the trend and say Zwei, despite him being slapped down by about 99% of users in the right hands hes a fucking nuisance!

I feel your pain. I'll never reach the level some people play at but the people I do lose to it tends to be a game of advanced RSP. In SC5 terms I guess its HLM (High/Low/Mid), soon as a knockdown happens the game begins. Some character like Sieg and Xiba can wake up with a vengence which...

Pretty much whats happened with me. Used to play ranked exclusively on SC4 as you could easily match against the same person numerous times if they wanted to. Gravitating towards player matches now since I hit A1 and playing ranked defeats the object, my only complaint (if thats what it is) is...

If you determine best in the world by ranked then yes. Taking into account they won their last game and stay on 5000/5000. give it a few months and dropping 1 point will mean you go to bottom of rankings. :)
