I know what he means; he's having difficulty connecting j.214B#. I had similar problems; I would either cross the opponent up or miss them altogether. Here are some things that I've observed: - If you cross up your opponent, that means you started pressing C too early and started the j.214B# too low. Wait a little longer so you can be pulled a little higher. - If your combo before the launch is too long, it will fail at some point. - Don't be afraid to improvise. If you see that you messed up in your combo, resist the temptation to keep going and try to end it with something that you know will work, even if it means sacrificing damage. - Practice, practice, practice. There are some characters that can be learned in one day (CT Hakumen and Tager), but Hazama isn't one of them. Just keep trying until you can nail your combos and setups every time.

This thread is for anyone who plays as Hazama to post their online handles so others looking to fight Hazama players know where to look to find them. When you post, please also include your location so others can know what kind of connection quality to expect with you.

Don't worry, it's not so much that the game is more difficult, it's just that the system is different. We all need time to adjust. There is no "easy" way to learn, you'll just have to practice until you can't get it wrong. I tell ya, Hazama was not easy to learn. I'm still flubbing his BnBs after a whole day of practice. Also, Hakumen is very different.

Aren't we all.

There is still a glitch that logs out anyone who follows the link from the guides to the forums.

I haven't really tried the online play yet, but this game is amazing aesthetically; all of the sprites and illustrations are actually smooth.
