I will only play a wifi warrior if that is all that is available, and I'm set to 4-5 bar filter, so wifi is always 4 bars (never seen a 5 bar). If I get a hiccup in the first match, which happens like 50% of the time, I will leave after the first match regardless of the outcome of me winning or losing.

I PP'd on a master last night and it felt great.

I could have sworn that I read the character models actually have skeletons and layers of muscles below the textures. If so I'd guess they just change the properties of the outer textures like opacity and color, to show the inner skeleton. The skeleton doesn't have to be hi-res either since it's only seen in those instances.

Ah gotcha it didn't show anything like he was hit yet so I was like WTF.

How does he have no health bar?

Well I've been dabbling in ranked a bit more recently and moved up from like 22k to 23.4k. However I only go into ranked every now and then depending on how I am feeling. I will do casual first and see how I'm feeling and I'm feeling good, go into ranked. But I haven't been going into ranked much recently BECAUSE I'm feeling "off" when I am in casual matches.

I feel like I am in a god damn slump right now in SF6. I don't know why but like my execution has gone backwards and I feel like I'm missing stuff that I'd get before, and I'm using Dee Jay so it's not like there is anything SUPER technical. I also feel like I'm hitting the wrong buttons sometimes too, or like for instance, on his AA jackknife I am pressing MK instead of HK, and the HK one is the one for AA and the MK one will trade or get stuffed. Shit like that. I am facing better competition now but I don't feel like it's that. How do I get rid of the yips?

I feel like 5 Nintendo characters could be on the top 20 list of iconic characters. Mario Donkey Kong Bowser Princess Peach Luigi I'm not saying they all SHOULD be on there, but if they were on there, I wouldn't have a problem with them. I feel more people know who those 5 characters are than characters even like Drake or Ellie or a handful of characters on that list.

LOL this has to be the worst fucking poll of all time in regards to iconic video game characters. I won't even spoil any of it so you all can facepalm at this list. https://www.bafta.org/media-centre/press-releases/bafta-most-iconic-character-poll-results

Yah I'm not referring to just gaming either. A lot of it has to do with the internet and everyone now thinks their voice is important and how easy it is to share their voice. But let's be real - this has been happening since Nintendo/Sega days back in the 90's lol. But back then it was a bit different with games because you would have different developers making the same games on the different platforms and they would be COMPLETELY different than multiplatform games are now a days. Oh, and back then, it was a bunch of kids arguing over this shit. Not a bunch of adults like it is now a days lol.

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)

I like Chris G's take on this and I agree with his take like 100%. I am only 20 mins into it though.

LMAO I legit had no clue this asshole was teabagging until I watched this replay back. I am pretty sure I turned my head to the side when he hit me with the DI and I was legit mashing my level 3 as he tried to chip me out but fuck him. The replay with commands would confirm that lol. Watch how quick this soft bitch quits too. And he won our first match.

I got to 23k LP last night in ranked and the competition is definitely getting tighter around this level for me. I'm also running into quite a bit of chars I just don't have a lot of matchup knowledge against, like Ed, Lily, Kimberly, and Jamie. When I win sets I'm finding myself winning more sets 2-1 now than 2-0 like I was before, which would put me on these pretty decent streaks of just gaining points. But wining 2-1 is like a net of 60 points instead of 100+ and it's showing. Or I will lose 1-2 as well. I don't see myself losing too many 0-2 sets though so I guess that is good.

Yeah I just love it when I get perfect parried and someone goes into this super long combo and wastes super meter too lol.

After a cr.medium move canceled into super, it SHOULD scale at 80%, not 90%. But there are character specific rules to the scaling so maybe Cammy has it different where it scales the special after the cr.medium by 10% instead of 20%? Personally I think doing the cr.mp into CA2 is tougher because I don't have those kind of confirming skills lol.

Check the combo out in training mode and just look at the scaling percentage. It will give you an idea of why that is happening exactly.

Yeah I'm not into games with complex combat like HZD seemed to have with scouting paths and setting traps and having to go through all these menus to switch to specific items and weapons. I just wanna shoot and kill shit lol. Like in God of War, I know you can do all this fancy stuff, but I didn't bother with any of that stuff. I pretty much used the same 3-4 moves the entire game. I'm not saying HZD is a bad game or anything, it's just not a game I liked.

Tried to play HZD twice and got bored as hell like 4-5 hours in each time. Thought the voice acting was just laughable as well, and the facial animations as mentioned. When you had stuff like God of War, Uncharted, and TLOU setting the bar for that stuff, it was hard to overlook. I don't know what game is more boring - HZD or TotK. That is a toss up. /hottake

The thing is they are still raking in cash hand over fist, so they may not even care. The FGC for MK (in general) is a lot more niche than the casuals who buy the game for the story and single player stuff then go online to get raped because they aren't good and don't care about getting good. Like I know Ed Boon hates hearing all of this feedback because of how passionate he is about MK, but he's still making a ton of money on MK, regardless of the vocal minority making videos such as the ones above. I do agree with you though, that for the actual game, something like that would be better. I just don't see it happening because of $$$.

That seems easy to do when facing right, but doing that when facing left seems trickier just due to ring finger not having as much dexterity, for me at least. Just trying raise/lower my left ring finger while my middle finger is down is much slower and more awkward than doing that with my index finger.

Damn Justin Wong already playing the new Fatal Fury game.

I am glad I dodged this bullet and didn't fall for FOMO at it's launch. https://kotaku.com/playstation-vr2-headsets-production-sales-halt-sony-1851344240 I don't even think I'd pay $300 for one right now. There are just no games for it.

That is a boring ass season 2 if that is real.

Burnout Revenge was one of my all time favorite games on Xbox 360. The sound track for it was incredible as well. This is probably my favorite track in that game.
