i have a stick actually... hehehehehe
i wanted to train my timing and links, so i want to make myself to rely less on focus cancels. i tend to waste 2 bars most the time.
the other real reason is i was too lazy to walk 5 steps to plug in my stick.
and i will work my my mp.srk anti-air, though i really find my reflex ultra slow.


thanks man, just what i needed.

lol. My joystick is always plugged in. I used a USB 2.0 hub for cheap keyboard, mouse and a joystick. Another USB port connected to DS3.

Reflexes is one of the thing that stop old players.

Ivanvenn,

bro, nice playing you again even though the session is short!!! you have a very good ken !!!

too bad i couldn't give you a worthy challenge due to the "unblockables" hahah , don't get me wrong .. i'm not finding excuses but just that i thought you would enjoyed a more worthy fight hehe

hope we'll try again soon

Fruitler,
Good to see you after so long man !!! always been my pleasure to give you a go fight !! like the old days + the better connection ...

Phyurix,
Thanks for adding me, had lotsa fun with all your characters, you seems to be master of many characters!!!
We shall play again soon heheh

Ahbeegtr,
Thanks for the game too , good games !!!! Now i'm starting to hate that ELF more

Eddy/Kenneth/Freddy,
OMG u guys, really SF craze people .... so late liao still available for challenge hehehe ... even though laggy .. i truly enjoyed the sessions. Sorry gotta go as it was already 3-4am if not mistaken.



wow, last night was really a busy busy SF4 day for me, shortest sessions were about 5-6 matches and longest were 30 over matches .... enjoyed every bit of it, none stop actions !!!!!

senzr, this caught my attention as well. As per the replies in that thread, perhaps this excellent discovery stemmed from attempts to discover the Japanese walking raging demon trick.

Imagine being able to do piano-like moves without EX moves coming out. I dedicate my tonight to beer and pizza in the Training Room with boring-ass toilet tiles! I wonder if it'll make Sagat's Fake Kick, or Viper/ELF's cancel strings easier...!

hahaha ... just that it was a coincidence we were at kenneths place and saw u playing so might as well invite u to play ...

we all stopped after u quit cos the line wasnt getting any better ... but it was fun ...

all fighters here add me la wanna train withe sifus out here.

senzr, why don't you get some guys on this thread to come over to your place for a good old face-to-face brawl out? Arcade-style, winner stays. Put a bowl in front of your TV, charge 20 cents/game.

Haha, I don't know about that. You already know first hand that I can't fit more than 3 players. The thought did cross my mind to charge for games. Those hori sticks ain't cheap!!

@rawfish & masteralvin:
Here is a video one of the guys on SRK did to illustrate the priority linking technique clearly:

I've been trying to use 2-button piano technique for specials, but now it looks like it works for linking normals too.

Here's the original 'walking demon' trick discovered by the Japanese:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dBubtTjRX0

The Japanese call it 'tsuji' links or something something...

well, losers can stand outside your balcony, have a smoke, and pout/b**** about why they lost.

At least they won't blame your sticks!

I'll probably be standing on the balcony a lot.

Hello all,

New to the LYN community, havn't been able to spend a small time to greet and say thanks to everyone that I've added and played so far (and also, cause didnt make an account ). Please feel free to add me for some friendly matches.

PSN : Phyurix

mikeeeee
Had fun with ya too dude, we'll play more once we get more free time. Need to figure out how to break your Chun-Li's defences

TristanX
Thanks for the forum thread webby, getting grilled on a BBQ pit was fun . Hope to play ya again when we're free.

sce
"Rufus King" (given title by me) really hard to fight, lately we've been having some bad connections but still loads of fun

Darkstalkers
Thanks for a good time on our first match up man. Was really fun that both of us randomizing around. Vega a nice char to use, but using DS3 thumbs hurt from charging


Anyone can give recommendations where is the best place to grab a stick or what is a good stick? I know Hori sticks arn't bad as I had 1 for my PS2. RM200-300 is my price range, but any other recommendations is accepted

Phyurix, great games to you too man the other day. I've been trying to play everyone that's added me at least once so I haven't really been playing the same players over and over again, that's why I don't think I've played you since.

Nice Abel btw.

EDIT: I'm using a Hori Real Arcade Pro 3, but I think that currently is out of your budget (game shops inflated the price closing to RM500...if there's stock). You might want to go for the Royd's stick maybe? Saw it in Sunway Pyramid, game shop in Asian Avenue towards the Maybank/Jusco side. Not sure how much they're selling, but I think it's in your price range.

Alternatively, you can get a PS2/PS3 converter for your old Hori stick. Not sure how much it costs and where to get it, but I've seen Kodanshi and rawfish use one. There might be compatibility problems though.

Also, you might want to get the Hori Fight Stick 3? I saw one in one of the Low Yat shops for about RM250 a month or two back.

Welcome. Enjoy yourself here with some chat. You can find even more challenge when you have more than just a list. There are 2 good Abels so far. You and someone on real life. Both of you plays identically.

As for joystick, I don't know much about Sabah/Sarawak but I do know almost everything is more expensive there. You can opt for PS2 to PS3 convertor if you can find one. Hori's stick is out of stock, gotta wait for the arrival of new stock. PC version of SF4 is coming in June too. I hope every shop imports a bunch of new joystick.

I did think of trying to find a convertor but none available, there was once I discovered a similar piece but got bad reviews. Multiple inputs doesnt really accept at one time. So Ultras might be a problem. Really sad for my Hori Stick, if I cant get a convertor for it its gonna end up in my local Museum. Kept perfectly with a glass box

No biggie, theres always chances to play. As long you dun quit playing Championship Mode This Friday WooHoo!!!

you abel so good man....
but your elf fuerte also damn good....
can i learn more about your ab elf fuerte?

Haha thx man, I got a friend here who is trying to main Fuerte. Really tricky situations he can make, sad he doesn't have a PS3. Currently trying to pull him into the Dark Side (the bugger always copy cat from me and make it improove to his own style )

Fuerte's run>body slam skill is the bomb. Knock-down, crossover, sometimes invulnerable. His run>catch skill can overlapse srk (meaning even if ppl srk on wake up, srk still lose). Practise these 2 skills to me I think is the best basics you should learn about Fuerte. Although I'm no pro, havn't seen anyone playing him here. Most of the time keep watching youtube to get an idea of his gameplays. Keep in mind those 2 skills you can control the distances to setup on crossovers.

Abel oh Abel, you tried out my gameplay already Abel needs to get agressive. No projectiles, just poke and get close. A lot of his moves can be a good setup for crossovers. So experiment and practise a lot is all I can say

Hey guys,

I'm new to the SF4 world, just wondering how is the connection between local players? I've played a few times online and always ended up getting challenged by players with the lowest connection. Its hard to play when everything jerks...

Avoid playing with 3 or less bars. It will just piss you off because of lag. Most connections with local players are fine.
If you can find this one, it should be good.

Dude~~~~ that seems to be the just the right one that can be used, but I have never saw it around here. Maybe i could ask a friend of mine to see if they can try get it for me. Taiwan based company, they always can hack anything

anyone free for sf4 now? =_=

I have a pre-order slot for the Madcatz TE, hence it will go on sale once Play-Asia fulfills the order. Please come in visit my thread (link = my sig) and share your comments. Thanks!
