Boxer's 7th and 8th trial...what's the secret? Standing jab->Standing h.k.. 8th trial is the same, only with the second hit being done while crouching. Why can't I get 'success'?
IIRC, you have to get far s.hk

Looks like I got this game today..... 40 € and not even Indestructible is in? I don't know about that. :/

At least Hakan seems a lot of fun!

Make sure you aren't so close to Dan when doing lp>hk. Give a little space between the both of you and then try it. You may have to doule tap hk.

Haunts, how are you linking Sagat in this game? Yesterday I played against a Sagat I really should have lost to, but he does so little damage now I was able to win.

I play Cody now, he is a lot more fun. I feel Sagat is a little gimmicky in this game is all.. I only played him in SF4 cause he was the character I liked the most out of the cast..but in Super there is Cody, Dudley, Ibuki, Guy...just a lot more choices that are FUN. I mean hell, Cody mirror matches are a blast compared to fuckin Sagat mirrors. :lol

So do you guys recommend completing the trials to learn your character better? I been doing the "Get Your Shit Beat-Down Online" method of learning how to get better....with a side of watching youtube vids.

I noticed after playing last night I have a really hard time doing QCF QCB w my stick. Could it be the gate? would an octagonal gate be better?

new page. hoping someone could give me some advice.

Yes and no. Doing the trials will give you a sense of what a character can do, but know that most of the combos are not adviseable to use in matches (Ex: Ryu trial #21 :lol )

Trials can give you ideas, but most of the trials aren't worth it.

j.mk, U2
s.mp, U2
AA s.mp, U2 (you don't get full damage, so don't use this unless dirt will kill them)
Bad Stone, U2

What are those? 1 frame links? It seems completely random when I actually connect.

Shit, I'd omit the entire original roster if given a chance! Or at least whittle 'em down, 3rd Strike style. Cody is crazy fun and Ibuki has just blown me away with sheer awesomeness. Whoever said Elena would be a natural fit for this engine is right on the money.

The wait for Super is getting really painful. Especially when there are people I know playing it already...

Hurry up and be Friday, Damn it!

The Tortilla Throw is more strict in regards to where it catches someones head I personally think.

So it was nerfed? :(

I was wondering why I was getting it less often (as a surprise tactic).

Really? most of the reports seems to be that it that range has been increased. From my experience it definitely hasn't gone down, at least.

I'm finding online matches incredibly dis-heartening whilst trying to learn the new characters. I'm facing Ryus, Chuns, Balrogs, all people who are Vanilla veterans and trashing me in seconds. No one wants to play the new characters?

Must resist the temptation to fall back on old favorites just to win!

Dont know if this has been answered already, but what does save reservation do in endless battle? When I Google it, it says its for saving a replay but "reservation" does not make much sense to me then.

The Prima guide says that st.mp > Ultra is a 1 frame link ( http://levelup-series.com/cicada/SSF4_CodyFrames.pdf ). Admittedly the accuracy of that guide has been brought into question, but that feels accurate to me. As for the j.mk, I'm willing to bet you have to land it super deep for that to work out, but I don't doubt it does. the stone is weird, you need appropriate spacing for it to work out. Alas, I haven't played much Cody because everyone locally is super into him.

Alright, thanks! I think I'll try a few of them for Akuma.

Good stuff. I referred to your Akuma guide a lot.

Ahhh, now it's making sense. I was wondering why I had replays saved to my harddrive that I don't remember saving. With the "save reservation" you can save that particular match you are watching during endless or team battle mode. I thought I would be able to leave the room, while saving my spot and come back later when my turn was up. :lol

Capcom should have just named it, "save current match."

Any players of moderate skill have an Endless Battle room up on PSN, preferrably on the east coast? HyperboreanExile (me) could use an invite.

Only played Claw online so far. The ease with which his moves combo now (especially RCF) is just sick.

So has anyone not received their preorder costumes from Amazon? Also, did you have to preorder from Amazon by a certain time to get that preorder bonus?

This is sort of cheap, I sent to look for the bundle pack of costumes for SFIV to see how much they are on PSN and the bundle pack is nowhere to be found. When I used the seach option, I found it, but it says "No content was found" when I click on it. :|
 
Feels like my Juri game is improving. Picked up some tips from 1up's superguide. Trying to utilize kasatushi effectively in battle (really awesome move). I might give the fightstick another chance tonight.

Yeah and I feel they nerfed Sagat wayyyy too hard. Which means a lot coming from a Balrog player.

It just takes some practice. Try not to ride the gate (eg push the stick all the way out to the edge). You can use small motions - the click indicates the microswitch activating, so get a feel for just how little you have to nudge the stick to get a direction.
