Yeah, not all moves are in the manual. There are Command Lists in the game's pause menu, though.

Oh so you guys are actually using them on different rows? I have em all stuck on the same row.

Index Finger -> A
Middle Finger -> B
Ring Finger -> C
Pinky -> D

Not good for D mashing...but that may not be a bad thing. :D
 
There's two arcade layouts, you can emulate either by doing(te/se stick) -

x - d
[] - a
/\ - b
r1 - c

or

x - a
[] - b
/\ - c
r1 - d

From all the local sessions I've had, the first seems to be the most popular.

D

Is what I use myself; I like the easier control of "D" that I get here for Rachel play. I dunno. I haven't really tried the other set-up much, to be honest so who knows heh.

Ahh thanks. I really like that first one. I'm gonna give it a shot. I guess I'm supposed to use my thumb on X?

You know, when I refreshed ... I didn't expect my GAF reading to go that way.

Actually, it's better be cornered. If you watch better players, they always let Arakune corner them so that he doesn't have the mobility he has in the middle of the screen.

Most of the people I play destroy me once I corner them w/ Arakune. Once you get the hang of the game, you'll want to let Arakune corner you. It's better than the alternative(mid screen), trust me......

Man, I couldn't even jump. It looked sort of like the corner loop thing from the DVD. I couldn't even burst out of it either because he wasn't close and I kept getting cursed over and over because I was pinned so good.

Looking at the replay, I guess the best thing I could've done was just take the ass whooping and move on.

Cant he get you in the spit and bug lock then?
 
I played a match against an Arakune with Jin on xbla right now and i have no idea what just happened. I got hit with that excellent throw to DD for a 31 hit combo, i am pretty sure i had no life left. But somehow i managed to luck into getting an ice ride to Jins ice bow or whatever DD to somehow win the match. It was extremely surreal and i wish i could get on youtube or something just so i can get some ones opinion on wtf happened.

By this, do you mean that most Arakune players think they can pull off the corner bug trap but can't execute it properly, or that the trap itself is escapable?
 
Lostconfused said:
Obviously, i wanted to watch that happen again several times over. Besides my few other wins against Arakune players that mainly try to get by on spamming bees.
then shakeycam it if you don't have a capture card

Take your pick, just trust me when I say it's better to be in the corner.
 
I beat arcade mode with Jin and unlocked a move, what is this shit of unlocking moves? How many more times do I need to do this to unlock a full characters move set?

It's just Astral Finishes. Don't worry about it.

It's just the Astral Heats, which rarely ever happen in real fights.

Some astrals can be comboed, so yes they can happen in real fight... some (Litchi), are just flukes..

Will the madcatz SF4 pad work well for BB? I am considering buying one if they are worth it since I am not interested in a stick right now =O

Ragna's seems to catch me in just about every other match.

Nu's Astral was actually the first move I completed in the whole game. :lol

btw, anyone else think that GG's soundtrack was a little better?
