[CSE] Makoto Nanaya's General Gameplay Discussion Thread

[SolAscension]

I think that's a really great idea Eshi. Makoto I think is a 'dead' character in extend. Not that she's horribly bad, but most people just don't play her anymore, and many of the people who have mained her since cs are kind of bored of her current gameplay. Strategy in extend is more important for Makoto than any of the previous versions.

[OmniSScythe]

Yo Omni, going to ECT?

Possibly, But for BB?

Nope.

I noticed that Makoto's strategy section on the dustloop wiki is painfully non-existant so I'm going to start updating it with useful stratagems. LMK what y'all think

Go for it, your thoughts has been on point so far.

[SolAscension]

Yo Omni, I move you put our extend threads on sticky, and move the CS2 stuff to archive, or at least unsticky. Can't live in the past!

I've manage to translate this thanks to Google. :P

Done.

[Bibiquadium]

Sadness, I'll be the only Makoto at ECT at this point. Oh well.

[OmniSScythe]

At the least if you want I can coach you when versus this or that player/character while I'm there?

[Bibiquadium]

I wanted mirror matches in casuals or something of that nature.

[SolAscension]

Lol sorry about that.

[HIGEKING42]

please tell me your going to enter umvc3. That will be interesting, a morgan who doesn't zone.

[SolAscension]

805 PSR Goro tearing it up. If you don't like this, go play another character.

Oh so you'll be there, Eshi? That gives me a bit more incentive to spend the money to come out there, lol. I'm not too comfortable with being on PS3, though...

If I do decide to go however, I'll be looking for all the training I can get.

[HIGEKING42]

you're a pad 360 player? how rare.

[Blubba_Pinecone]

Analog stick on standard 360 controller, yeah... Analog just feels normal to me from my years in competitive Smash; except the PS3 analog... that crap is just awkward lol.

[Bibiquadium]

Thing is, you don't play on a PS3 pad for its analogs, but for its superior D-Pad.

[Blubba_Pinecone]

True true... my fingers have never fully blended to d-pad technology (Kappa)

When I play at friends' houses who are on PS3, I find myself switching between the d-pad and the stick mid-game depending on what I'm doing, lol.

[OmniSScythe]

360's Analog > PS3's D-pad hands down.

[floatwater]

360's Analog > PS3's D-pad hands down.

that is one odd opinion, i find them 360 analogs to f me over all the time.

[Bibiquadium]

To each their own. I play stick, some plays pad, some plays analog, some plays hitboxes and some doesn't play at all.

[HIGEKING42]

anyways i don't like the geel of a 360 pad in my hands especially because my hands are small. A huge problem for me. Instead i'd rather use a stick instead of that horrendous 360 control/pad.

[Reisi]

The 360's analog stick is pretty nice though. Also, I don't have big hands either, but the controller feels really nice in my hand, even more so than the PS3's. And I'm not using my 360 at all nowadays. But, as said countless times before, a simple matter of preference.

Also, I finished comparing hitboxes. We got one buff. A single one. j.C's active hitbox now sticks around longer. Every other move either wasn't changed at all or got nerfed. Mainly her normals, specials are unchanged. Except for 214A~C~A, they nerfed it so you can't connect that on a crouching Tager/Haku anymore, which is pretty silly anyways since you can't do anything afterwards like in CS2. But, while you're at it, might as well, right? :V

[StarGazer]

My godlike PS3 Pad is broken now and i have to switch to the stick...

@Reisi: that explains why i feel so comfortable now with using 214C > j.C

[Domethieus]

Pad is weird. .-. but I do admit 360 analog > PS3 Analog even though I play on stick lol

[HIGEKING42]

what stick do you use.

[Domethieus]

BB TE stick. Might get a hori in a few months

[StarGazer]

My beloved and useless stick
