    I don't really pay attention, so I don't know, but are they working on fixing Tiers? Because my brother likes playing as Cammy and Rose and I enjoy playing as Abel.

    Unless you 3 are big time tournament players I don't see how tiers effect you. And if you are big time tournament players I am pleased to inform you that Cammy and Abel will likely remain competitive tournament quality characters and rose has had some minor improvements confirmed.

    Have they said how the original SF4 DLC costumes will work with SSF4? (ie. If the DLC works for both games)
    And will the 10 new characters get an extra costume, or will they all be one behind the original 25?

    The new guys are all only getting one alternate, I think they said.

    I'm a bit confused, though. My impression was all the characters came with their new alt and the old ones would still be for purchase - based on that preorder stuff, I guess it's the other way around? So the new characters only start with one?

    I preordered at Gamestop weeks ago, just because it's within walking distance. This isn't really going to push me towards canceling and preordering elsewhere, as I wouldn't use any of those 5 characters anyway.

    Oh, those are the only costumes you get? I figured maybe they were hiding some other character costumes and just teasing us with five.

    Then yeah, fuck those characters.

    Remember they had that bonus when you bought the CE version of SF4 where you'd get a code for the Grappler Pack. Just 5 costumes, same as this preorder bonus. But no CE version for us this time around.

    That strikes me as dumb anyways. It seems like any gain you get would be mitigated by the eventual release of the costume pack pack where they sold all costumes at a discount. Unless you wanted JUST those costumes, or maybe one more pack.

    Personally, I don't like DLC being preorder exclusive and much prefer the model of "Preorder gets it for free right now, otherwise it will be on the marketplace at a later date and everyone can get it (possibly for a fee)."
    So this seems okay (though I guess unappealing to the people who would only want costumes for their mains instead of collecting them all), aside from the fact that paying for DLC that's already on the disc is very annoying.

    I can pretty much guarantee this will be the case with SSF4's dlc.

    The gain is, you have it from launch day instead of having to wait with everyone else. And then you go online and for those few weeks you're showing off your cool stuff to players who can't buy it yet.

    Maybe you should start reseting your router/modem before a FightNight or something. You've been having a lot of lag problems lately.

    so rance, seeing as how you plundered my rectum today, do you have any advice on how to prevent future pillaging

    i have some, for myself:

    -block BnBs more consistently
    -don't jump in on Sagat, or pretty much anyone with an anti-air, as a general means of attack (for fuck's sake)
    -don't headstomp from across the screen when your opponent is standing up, no matter how tempting it is
    -stop sliding so often

    and other stupid mistakes.

    okie doke

    -don't do (blocked or not) crossup, st.hk or tickthrow, crossup, st.hk or tickthrow repeatedly. this looked hells of successful yesterday because i kept messing up auto correct TU. a better sagat (or any dp reversal character) would have stopped it and everyone else can dash out of it for a punish (bison's moon jump) or OST. i noticed you did this tactic with guile too. that said, of course you should keep doing it to my sagat until i auto correct properly. it's great practice for it :D

    - if you land a crossup, end it with a knockdown combo instead of just st.hk. if the crossup is blocked, either go into a block string, back dash, or OST

    - use cr.lp, st.lp, throw/cr.short throw/meaty cr.forward throw more to be a bit safer rather than setups that require you to walk up.

    - do option select throw. seems like the only time you get thrown is when i caught you crouching. OST will allow you to tech throws while crouching and stick out a cr.short if no tech happens.

    - this is more me than you, but only dash back or walk forward in the very start of a round.

    - use st.forward more. fast, good horizontal range, decent damage

    This man speaks the truth. Never got to play people since the netcode sucked and everyone abandoned the game very quickly. So long as they fix the netcode, don't skimp on the characters and give each character their moves I'll buy the next one. No Buster Wolf, god that still kills me.
