The DMK

I noticed this seems to be the case as well. I agree that it is totally fair for people to complain, but it was kind of a bummer when the game finally came out and the News and Gameplay threads was chiefly talk about the netcode and such. I was hoping to see some interesting discoveries or more general talk of 'this game is fantastic'.

It's all good. When someone suggests you enjoy using flow-chart autopilot characters it is hard not to take it as an insult. I guess now I can't challenge you to that $25000 money match to defend my honor. For some reason I never got a chance to play / much despite the fact that I owned it, but I remember that out of all the changes it was really the stun edges that shot Ky up the tiers. Outside of that he wasn't massively better. Anyone remember Ogawa playing #R Eddie vs Buppa's / Ky? Good times. What I was getting at though is that Ky is simply overall a better character, which is much more fun. BoJ: Those combos you linked to remind me of what folks are currently doing with Sol's dust loop. Modifying the ol' dust loop/VT loop and getting much cooler stuff (it is only natural given this is a new game). Glad to watch this all develop.

That is a pretty presumptuous statement. I'm referring to the fact that, as with many other characters, it can be a frustrating experience to outplay someone and end up losing partially because of mediocre damage. I play a lot of matches against Slayer so I'm always facing a rather pronounced difference in damage. I'm just saying that I enjoy the fact that he has, as you said, better damage and increased screen control. The seal mechanic wasn't the sort of thing I would of immediately expected them to give Ky, but it was a pleasant surprise. Adds a nice layer to his game.

That video was some good stuff. It is exciting to see Ky as a strong character because of interesting stuff instead of SE x n (like /). I enjoy no longer feeling like Ky has to work his ass off for every win.

Thanks for the response. I could do with better recovery over a faster speed. The cross up was nice, but it seemed more like an occasional gimmick than anything else.

This is all great info. Thanks guys. This sounds solid. To Hintalove and qwerty: Does GS seem any faster to you? In the vids it seems like it is, but I don't know if that is my eyes deceiving me. On that note, does it have better recovery?

Was going through this thread the other day and decided to compile the posts by fs that had the combo variations for specific characters. Might've missed some. Not sure if this post would be considered obnoxiously long. If a mod or fs wants to edit it into his first post here it is:

Trying to set this up now and find my PC Pad. When it is all good I'm down to play some matches with somebody.

It depends on how many posts you have set for page. It's 57 on mine too.

I don't think there actually is a Story Mode Fan Boy. I think it's Arcade Mode you're referring to hence the lack of scenes. It is indeed "teh suxorz".

Question: When say you land a basic ground string, or well, anything that can combo into level 3 RI or BRP, which would be preferable? The combo opportunities off both are pretty similar, and from what I recall one seems to do slightly more damage. Are there perhaps some PHAT COMBOZ I don't know about or something off one that aren't off the other for whatever reason? Any help will be appreciated :D.

All us US, Europe and Canada peeps are on Delay 4 right? Does anyone in America use Delay 2?

It's in the folder for GG. It's called config and I think the icon is Ky. There are 3 tabs when you open it up I think on the top. The one on the left (the one you start on) is display options and crap, the one in the middle is keyboard controls, and after that is gamepad/joystick controls. Figure out what is what, by testing out the keyboard controls in the game and comparing that with the things on the config menu. I know the first four are up down left and right, and the next ones are the PS2 face buttons, but I unno what order. R1 is dust and all obviously.

GGs to all. Sorry for it dropping out like that zazz and anyone I played. Apparently whenever iTunes switches songs it kicks me out after a small freeze-up. Spicy J was you Spirit Juice I take it? GGs ;o. GTX whoever you are on the forums, sick Eddie. My speakers power cable got loosened right at the beginning though so I wasn't in the groove without the music, and with me trying to fix it in between haha ;(. You woulda won regardless. Who is the dark blue and black Ky with the blonde hair who keeps changing his name? GGs!

GGs Sytha, Kumiho and everyone else I played. Sorry for I guess uh being a scrub or something by implying you dropped. I didn't even know desyncs existed if thats what happened (been playing online 2 days, and never experienced it before). For the record, I wouldn't have said ggs in my last post if I didn't think you left without good reason. Fierce Eddie. Have to stop random stun edges. And it is still weird as hell someone else has the same handle as me.
