If the Marisa shirt sells out, it will be because @Jocelotbought a warehouse full of them. 🙃

Hey guys, I think I know what we should get @Doctrine_Darkfor his birthday.

Those are definitely some talented people.
 
I'm really hoping Dudley and Elena return

I had to do it man, you set up the tee, I had to take a swing.

The most accurate way to play 3S at home is emulating it on a PC through MAME/other low latency emulators.  Hook your PC up to a CRT for the true old school experience.
 
Fightcade uses FinalBurnNeo as its emulator, and FinalBurnNeo has significant input delay.  It's the online standard and tons of people are used to it -- but it will feel laggy if you're used to the real arcade cab.
 
30th Anniversary is just emulation, so if you are already using MAME/other emulators there's really no point to owning it except for online play.  The only person I know who actually plays 30th Anniversary is @Sonero.
 
3S Online Edition is an actual port made from the ground up - it's not emulated.  It feels like a different game because it actually is.  Purists will hate it because of this.
 
My local arcade is a Jazzy Circuit location and people play on real arcade hardware.  If the CPS3 core for the MiSTeR ever gets completed I'm sure that will be a legit way to play the game also.

Kept trying to do Cammy's Lvl3 yesterday. It would not come out at all.
 
Then I realized the shyt is done with Punch and not Kick.
 
Aside from that, a few mins of labbing and I feel like I wasn't away for any longer than a few days.
 

 
I'mma be ready for the Akuma army when he's released.

Per random fightcade users (both good and bad players), the console port of 30th is considered to be "slow" and "feels off." I have never had a solid explanation as to why 30th anniversary is reviled so much for offline 3s. The 30th anniversary port is allowed by Jazzy Circuit, the grassroots 3s tournament series ran by the most dedicated 3s players. In terms of port quality, it is very good compared to every other port.
 
3s online edition is also pretty good but there are some issues with the balancing and the game running too fast. Yun's genei jin not scaling properly is one of the most glaring problems. Many players consider it to be a different game.
 
Everything else is either too slow, the sound queues are off, or straight up the wrong version of the game. They are also all very old.

I agree I feel like people loooooooove to hate more than ever these days. Nobody just quietly disengages from content they don't care about, which is weird. 
 
I'm just thinking of the new Suicide Squad game as an example. The comments and "gamer rage" videos appearing on my timeline honestly made me uncomfortable.

That reminds me of guys like Chard Warden and El Pressador
 
 
"ps triple"

Honestly, this may not be the official start date of it but goddamn with The Last Jedi. There's a group of people whose sole existence is to defend some shit from their childhood and not let it go.
 
With FGs its weird because people aren't willing to actually get into the nitty gritty of stuff. There is a wide gulf between thinking something sucks and thinking something is actively bad. Unfortunately the FGC is in a weird spot because it isn't making the games (and when it does make games they kinda end....interesting). So you have to accept whatever ridiculousness some devs in Japan decided was appropriate with little testing and call it a life.
 
The funniest is when people say " oh this character sucks because he can't do X, Y and Z". And like...have you considered that maybe the character should hold some type of L somewhere design wise?
 
Bleh. Flaws are only for grapplers.

Which is why I think it's worse now. Kids arguing over it is one thing. Adults though.....some of these Sony and Xbox centric Youtube videos I have had the misfortune to run across make me shake my head man. 

How bout this.
 
Enjoy 3S if you like 3S, enjoy SF6 if you like SF6.  It's okay if you like both of them equally.  One doesn't have to be better than the other one.
 
I don't understand this problem in our current society where everyone has to pick a fucking side, and if you are not on the same side, you are basically public enemy number one.
 
(and I am not referring to anyone specifically in this thread - I am just talking generally speaking about this stupid discussion)

So the funny thing about parry in 3s is that if more than one hit connects within a certain amount of frames, the game will automatically parry the 2nd hit without any additional input (as you probably already knew.)
 
This is evident in parrying Remy's SA1.
 
 
 
 
When he tells us to listen to the timing of the inputs, there are too many inputs LOL
 
It's still tricky to get out of the unblockable setup but a lot of the time you downparry on wakeup to parry the first hit of aegis (which sometimes leads to autoparry of the second hit, in this case f+mk) and then utilize the screen freeze to make a decision of what to do next.
 
Parry always has been and always will be scrubby. Coming from me, a man who played 3rd strike, married a 3rd strike player, had 3rd strike themed wedding invitations, and continues to enjoy playing/dunking on 3rd strike.

The Japanese SF account is posting something about April 1st and Akuma but I dunno if it's just an april fool's thing or not
 
Edit: Yup it's just an April fool's thing. I forgot about the time difference
 
 

Akuma-week will be taking place at Laguna Ten Bosch (Real-life battle hub) where people will be able to play Akuma for the first time ever (between May 1st and 6th).

Don't worry, SF7 and Tekken 9 will be a true return to form 🙂
 

Tragically, Marisa armored through the bullet and killed him off the touch.
 
Stay in your tier!
 

Just remembered that I really did get banned over an April's Fools joke on SRK.
 
Also its my anniversary!
 
😤

Zomg zangief buffed!!!
