    BTW why cant everybody have a brain dead hit confirming combo like Cody's c.lp,c.lp,c.mp->special of choice. I think you actually have to try to fuck this one up.

    Meanwhile Deejays exact same combo PRACTICALLY FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE!

    Its not worth it. c.mp has pathetic range, you're better off going straight to the machine gun upper/upkicks/dread kicks.

    Got the Saturn USB ready to go, so I'm set if anyone's down.
    (PSN cj_iwakura)


    Failing that, I'll check the IRC. Still not sure how the whole lobby thing works.

    To anybody learning makoto, here's a public notice: don't ever use hayate in a situation where it's going to be blocked, always combo into it. It's not an approach tool, it's a combo tool that leads to mixups in 3S though that mixup game is weaker in SSF4. So, yeah.

    Yeah, the very first thing I did in training mode was set Makoto to hayate and try to reversal DP it.

    Turns out you can. Always.

    I really don't understand her mix ups. I can't figure out how to get to the other side or anything. I guess I need to run into some good Makotos.

    I think I may stay away from lobbies for now. I need some practice and it's really hard to get any momentum going even in four-person ones.

    Being 0-33 in lobbies so far isn't helping either. :/

    They should make a edition you can only use the default controller for, and then another edition meant for people with good joysticks.

    BlueDestiny, that tutorial video series you posted on page 16 is excellent! Exactly the kind of stuff I need.

    It's weird--I've been doing some of this stuff without knowing what it was called, or really understanding it, especially the knockdown guessing-game stuff.

    Hey, I'm not good or anything.

    Evidence: I'm wondering if there's a dictionary of terms for this game somewhere. Is a target combo like a "dial combo" that existed in the Marvel vs. series? Or what exactly?

    Yes, that's what they are, the timing is pretty strict on some of them though.

    A target combo is a combo where the normals cancel into each other, so the timing is more lenient.

    edit: BlueDestiny thats an amazing video btw. Until now I've been using Sirlin's Super Turbo tutorials to explain street fighter basics.

    I'm watching the third in the series now. It's really making me feel like I understand the Street Fighter series better than I thought I did!


    I lost a lot of matches today where I could have easily crushed my opponent's mistakes, simply because I didn't input moves correctly. :oops: I guess what I've been doing to a lot of people all day is baiting reversals, and then when I've got my window of opportunity I'll just completely blow something simple like a double QCF and end up doing some completely random move. Most of the time it was failing to execute Guy's Ultra #1 and instead doing the EX dash move, which not only does no damage but also gives the other player the same opportunity that I just wasted. :oops::oops::oops:


    EDIT: Oh yeah, why does everyone I play against seem to have either a comic book black outline thing going on for their character, or a black crosshatch shading thing? I don't even see any option to enable that.

    They're great tutorials for the fundamentals of Street Fighter, no doubt about it. I was lucky that friend who knew about them linked em to me when I started talking about SF4. Doesn't hurt that they have nice music and subtitles instead of someone popping and spitting into a mic.
