    If you only play old games for story mode, the CPU read inputs so you are gonna have a bad time anyway if you don’t exploit their tendencies. Don’t spam fire ball cause I think by the 2nd or 3rd match you start to getting jumped on. In fact, if you know how to do anti air(couch heavy punch from Ken) with proper timing you can beat the run pretty easily except char with command grab.

    Like for CPU don’t even try complex input, read on internet for most basic punish(like empty jump in and then throw against zoner) cause throw is really high damage & strong in SF2. If you push them to wall then you do the light punch fireball with some distance to bait them to jump over then do your punish.


  • well, I am not good but consider I can usually finish all the combo trainings 100% so my execution is quite okay. (I quit fighting game cause the button tapping is quite noisy, so no more fighting game after my son was born. )

    • street fighter have a couple arch type, ryu/ken is shoto and they have actually different play style even though their basics looks similar.
    • for any fighting game the distance that your opponent’s attack can reach is very important. a good player can simply whiff punish you and throw jabbing you because you don’t understand the +/- etc after a blocked/whiffed attack.
    • hit confirm is also important, which means a simple combo that you can start when you have advantage, but not too “negative” when it’s blocked. (training mode can show these info) Where the first 2~3 hit of your combo is safe and once you get better and landing those 2~3 hit combo, pick something that allows you to cancel into special moves, knock down or throw(which is also a down). All the more fancy complex combo is not really useful if you can’t even land a 2~3 hit combo on opponent.
    • punishing specific match up’s bad move, ie. a fireball at wrong distance allows opponent to jump in and lands full combo out of it. you have to do training mode a lot and study your match up.
    • and finally, study the neutral game, where both side starts from distance that all normal attacks are out of range, what can you do from that point of space and what opponent’s char can do from their space. If you keep getting beat by opponent’s certain move, rewatch the replay, check their input, record that input to a training dummy, and find what you can do as counter.

    It’s a huge time sink and there are also cheaters(on pc specifically), so good luck.






  • I wish that in the future developer can just host their own game with very minimum cost/overhead unless they really need some platform’s backend feature. (multiplayer game mostly.)

    For single player game I really don’t see why it is so difficulty to host (even torrent it) would be a hard thing to do. During the shareware/pre-steam days where you may have downloaded the full game with a soft lock, I’ve played a whole game and then try find way to send my money as well. (was not living in NA at that time and there was no guarantee that a game will be imported with official vendor.)


  • vs the linear plot AI, yeah, it’s super boring consider how OP the main character is. It really depends on how they execute the multiplayer side of thing as seen by the success of Helldivers 2. I honestly think that would be a cool coop/pvp game during my play through and fell short be cause the variety of the “gun” is lacking and perks are RNG based. The time limited mission kept repeating and gets boring after a while, so I just beeline and finished the story and post game(including DLC).



  • I don’t know which one you get but but there was a batch/period where the chinese made ones have really bad QA cause they are rushing productions for the hall effect sensor sticks. Usually it’s pretty easy to get replacement if you got a bad one. (just that the shipping time you have to wait. some vendor doesn’t even require you to send the broken one back. )

    there is a joystick test website: https://gamepadtest.com/ if you test with your controller and record video to prove their stick is pointing wrong way, you should have a good case to ask for replacement.

    I got the Gamesir T4 Cyclone Pro, it’s working really well for me except sometimes it disconnect when playing RL.( maybe it detects it’s fully charged and tries to protect it’s battery or something, hopefully there will be firmware update to fix it. or maybe it’s RL’s fault as I play other games with controller without issue for 2+ hours long session. all connected wired, not wireless. )




  • Well, they really need to nail the post launch fixes and still balance on content updates. I like this game a lot but the mission type is pretty limited at the moment. Also because of how they balance the game and weapon stratagem, even high difficulty level it is possible to solo the game. With the exception of 2 player required vault door. No other part of the game actually requires a full squad. The only thing that increase the likelihood that high difficulty needs more teammates and communication is the double cool down of stratagem and maybe future modifier that limits how much damage a solo player can dish out. And there is no real penalty if you missed the shuttle, as long as mission objectives are done, you at most lost a couple samples and some irrelevant XP and in game currency.
