Ultra Street Fighter 4 Discussion Thread

i dont think they reuse any code.
while fundamentals stay the same, the game engine is different almost everytime for each generation release and hit box's for 3d models differ significantly from 2d ones.

I'm not attacking it

I never even compared it to street fighter.

I don't even know what you're talking about here. I think we've had a transmission error, lets just drop it, whatever it is. :pac:

As for the code re-use, what part of it's a joke don't people get? I practically spelled it out it that last post.

It was supposed to be a good-natured jab at Capcoms legendary re-use of resources and it's somehow turned into a mini-****storm.

Realistically they probably ARE re-using some code (at least across the same platform) because pretty much all developers do, it's common good practice. Just depends what you're re-using, the logic behind some things never changes (menus, timer, lifebars, etc) so it makes sense to re-use the code. But I probably shouldn't have said that the way this is going, in any case its not worth bloody arguing over.

We've also ditched the topic on a country road somewhere.

They're just kidding with you, relax.

In fact the only reason I have allowed this topic to run off is because I'm enjoying joking at the expense of our own D4RK ON1ON, who is in fact the Boards Rock Band mod.

There appears to be a lesbian threesome going on in the background and that guy in a pikachu costume is playing Rockband/Guitar Hero. He really needs to get his priorities in check!

I could even be persuaded to put my TE down for that

K.O.Kiki

In fairness, it's not like he stands a chance in a LESBIAN threesome.

Sisko

yeah they'd probably be too much for him considering he's the type that plays Guitar Hero
























oh no you di-int

Scavenger XIII

I'll put money on the table for anyone who can get me quality video footage of the girls in the background.

Reviving thread for non-thread worthy question. Anyone know how many + frames are added to CH moves?

1 for light moves, 3 for medium and heavy. Not sure if that's how it works for specials/supers/ultras too though

Scavenger XIII

Somebody revived this thread and didn't even get me my lesbian videos? :pac:

Cheers, still doesn't make the combo I hit the other day make sense.

Actually Red told me that if it was meaty it would have combo'd, it was Wednesday so I cant remember that far back but Im assuming it was a meaty CH.

hopefully one of the frame oracles will be able to answer this,
as ken, is there any reason to use croucking light kick instead of crouching light punch for hit confirms/combos?
i see alot of pro ken players doing cr lk cr lp fierce shoryu, whereas i always just use cr lp for combos and hit confirming
they both seem to link just as easy

cr.LK is a low attack. cr.LP isn't.

No. cr.LK has one extra active frame but also has one extra recovery.

cr.LK is worse on hit and block. It's 0 on block and +3 on hit as opposed to cr.LP which is +2 on block and +5 on hit.

They both start up in 3 frames.

What, you can block c.lp with standing block?:eek:

Or course, you didn't know that? That's why people go c.lk. c.lp BnB!

Sisko

In all my years of playing street fighter. I was always under the impression that crouching moves hit low. I don't think I've ever even witnessed someone blocking a jab with standing block.

Never wonder why you can parry it high in 3s?

If the move is touching the ground, block low. If its not touching the ground, block high. Thats the way I always viewed it anyway. crouching punch is off the ground, a crouching kick touches the ground.

There might be one or two moves that contradict that, but thats always been my take on it anyway.

Sisko

I never was at the level in 3s where I could parry a block string or combo. Only fireballs, jump ins, aa's and meaties

Placebo

here we go :rolleyes:
