Just searching or open lobbies created by myself.

Kazumi is bae. That is all.

Rouj has gone seriousman; I can feel it. He's labbing the Kickboxer-Van-Damme out of Jack, Sembello's Maniac on as he cranks an exercise bike. Luminous headband. Crocs for grip.

I'm open to bribes. A bumper box of old-school Dunhills sweets'd do.



At a push.

Worth buying?

By that, I mean, is this better than Tekken 6 (which I liked)?

I'll pick it up once back from Tokyo. Where I will be playing the arcade version like a real fightmans

Lee's pretty much the same on paper, but his BnB juggle's bugger-hard now. It could be my imagination, but characters fall at noticeably different speeds. For example, I can catch airman Fury semi-reliably with a b+2~f after Lee's 4,u+3 juggle-starter, but Kazuya seems much, much harder. I've never looked into per-character juggle states, so maybe I should, huh.

'Cause in the previous two games, Lee went into B! with f+4,3 whenever he felt like it (making 4,u+3 trivial for the extra damage it gave), else Mist Step b~2,3 for the W!. He still has the latter, but change b~2,3 to b~2,4 for S!. His f+2,1 finisher's maybe a three-frame link, though (or fff+3,4 for a hard knockdown instead of W!), and the first b+2~f after the u+3's another tricky link. Also, you have to dash into the 4,u+3 if you launch with a d/f+2 that's not point-blank.

It's getting the better of me offline, so my best bet online might be to just omit the u+3: launch > 4 > b+2~f... For damage of 57 after 9 hits versus 66 for 10 (off of u/f+4).

How are you finding S!, Rouj? The main Lees agree on getting it out of the way ASAP, but that's because he still has great carry. It probably makes sense for him to S! early for max damage and then carry into an MS b~2,3 ender. Finding that out's my next job.

I'm hoping to find summat with a bit more sting, else Lee's gonna suffer on those infinite stages. He does good W! damage, but his oki's not what it was afterwards.

I'm too green to say, and it's too early unless you've been rinsing the cabs. S! currently feels like a nerfed B!, if that strikes you as a good thing.

heh scape

Anyone need playing injustice 2? Recommend it?

Personally wouldn't touch it with a bargepole. First one was atrocious so I have no confidence second will be any good. The MK games are atrocious too.

Yeah I heard Injustice 2 is supposed to be pretty decent. I haven't played it but I think it's pretty highly rated by the MK crowd.

What's Kazumi about? Other than literal tiger uppercuts.

I think she's supposed to be a sort of Mishima, sort of something else. She's got a few of Heihachi's moves from the looks of it, then she seems to have a lot of pretty slow, long range punches, she sort of feels like a weird long range poking character, especially as she has an Akuma style command movement to get in and out and then you just throw tigers at people from full screen. 

I'm enjoying her, but no idea what the fuck I'm really doing with her yet. Also all her customisations are fucking shit, like most of the female cast. No I don't want a bikini, no I don't want fucking hot pants, no I don't want leather fucking chaps, etc. 

In other news I really want to play Miguel as well because they really came through with his character design and also low tier heroics, and also he is basically angry now poongko 24/7. 

Anyone around for games later? May stream, may not, I have had the classic and as soon as I have wound down off work my immune system has given up the ghost and let the germs in. Motherfucker.

Harada bless for the in match slowmo. So many hilarious unintended consequences, see below:

Ooooh, just read news that ArcSys are making a Dragonball Z vs fighter. Never liked the lrebiiis games, whoever they were by, I trust ArcSys to do the licence justice. It'll be 3v3 apparently.

The much better option is to replace its PCB or piggyback a DS4 board to it.

Adaptors are fine, but they've been taken out temporarily by PS4 updates a couple of times.

Which one do people use - the Chronus one?
