    GGs, but either your connection or my connection is pooping out there.

    Attempted Gigantic Tagers = at least 100
    Number that actually came out = 2

    It was like fighting underwater or something.

    at the end the connection was good, though... though there was some intermittent lag

    I hope they fix CSs netcode. I don't know what they did between it and CT but it came out worse for it.

    It did get better, at least on my end. CS has been nothing but smooth for me.

    I didn't really notice a difference between the two. CS has been fine for me as long as I'm not playing someone on the west coast or something.

    I'll try to keep an eye on this thread today if anyone is up for some matches.

    In CT 2-bars connection used to be playable. In CS I can't play anything below 3.

    Though it could simply be that now that I understand 2D fighting games better I'm starting to see what's legit and what's lag tactics.

    3-bar connections are incredibly rare for me due to location, but I don't notice much of a problem with 2-bar ones. Either way, it's not realistic for me to play Ranked because of how long it can take to find opponents. I pretty much need to keep searching for player matches until a good lobby happens to come up.

    I had a realization last night after playing: Why is Makoto in the Intelligence department? Shouldn't she be in the Ars Magi with Jin and Noel?

    Also, I'll be around all day if people want to play.

    Makoto isn't from a high-ranking family nor is she a walking plot device like Noel. And perhaps, maybe she just had a knack for collecting intelligence? *shrug*

    Well, yeah, but it's also stated that she isn't very smart and her only good traits were her athletic abilities. Thusly, shouldn't she be assigned to the department that specializes in close-quarters combat?

    You know, Valk is a lot of fun. And pretty simple.

    Yup, I've been continuing to play more Valk than anyone else, although I feel that a lot of my wins happen just because people don't know how to block his nonsense.

    I've kinda got the game on in the background behind me. If anyone's up for some matches, hit me with an invite (or friend request) and I should notice it soon enough.

    I'm guessing it's because Makoto is skilled at deceiving people. And she is.

    Good games guys. I was definitely dropping a few more combos than usual, but it was probably more being a little rusty than the lag. I still think my Ragna is better than my Valkenhayn, but I need to learn how to deal with certain things with him. His lack of being able to run is just strange to me, so I'm probably doing more wolf dashing than I should.

    I'm still having trouble with the lag. It's making me drop some normal moves and supers.

    I can usually pull of the GETB 100% of the time offline, but online it never seems to work at all.

    I don't really get how lag could throw off your inputs, though. The biggest lag problem I had in those matches was that you kept teching out of my Valkenhayn relaunch combos.

    I don't know either, but my 720's just aren't coming out at all. It came out just once tonight while playing.

    Yeah. Dropped frames are very annoying, if you're not mashing shit out they can really fuck up your timing online.

    I had to trade this game in after I joined an online game and was combo'd from full health to KO twice but someone playing that ho Noel. I swore to pick it up once I picked up a stick though (which will probably be when MvC3 comes out).

    And now I just realized Continuum Shift 2 is referring to the arcade version and it just adds the console exclusive characters, am I right?

    And alot of changes to individual characters, some system changes. Might come as a patch in a few months time.

    Noel got way better compared to CS1 btw. Though she wasn't very good in CS1.

    Yeah. As is...Noel only really has D spam and a predictable as hell combo setup.

    Honestly, though, I think CS1 to CS2 will be as big a jump from CT to CS1.

    Just got my first Astral against a Tager. With Tsubaki.

    Feels good.


    This is the first character in an ArcSys game I've become genuinely good at comboing and mind gaming with.
