What would I do instead?

literally anything else

What's the problem with KoF XIII inputs? There are some things I can't do no matter how many times I try (st.A/B into command grab with EX Iori for example), but otherwise I don't find them as bad as everyone else seems to do.

[NW_Gump]

Whelp my ps4 just stopped reading my discs i guess? I don't really know what to do. Is there any way to back my save games onto a thumb drive or if i send it in will I just lose it all?

Best advice possible: don't take career advice from Bleck.

In most circumstances, a quality arcade stick is better than a quality pad. Moving your wrist and forearm will always be quicker and more accurate than your thumbs for directions. For buttons, most of your fingers are gripping the controller on pad, so 90% of button presses are going to be your thumbs moving in various directions, with the occasional shoulder button press from the indexes. Compare that to stick where every one of your fingers is free and can now be dedicated to cover multiple different buttons, allowing you to much more easily do things like negative edge, piano, double-tap or pressing 2 or more buttons at the same time. It's like comparing typing with index fingers versus typing with all your fingers. It's no contest.

People get arcade sticks thinking it will instantly make them a god player, and end up hating it because it feels awkward and they play worse than they did on pad. Learning stick takes commitment and dedication until your muscle memory finally rewires itself to accommodate the new control method, just like when you were 5 and the N64/Playstation controller felt awkward at first. But of course no one remembers that struggle, because now it's pretty much something they've just always known.

When you're used to buffered inputs in other games, it seems difficult.

EWGF, Hellsweeps, Tsunami kicks, and ff+2. I have war flashbacks from playing the local mishima player where he just does db+2 all day long as well. those characters man, here's hoping Tekken 7 brings some new blood to the top

09er's that came from SF4 arn't used to those SNK inputs homie. KOF13 does have buffer windows though and shortcuts to make combos easier though.

THIS. Soo much of this. I choose to learn stick properly though and started on a SCV hori stick.

Also off topic but have anyone have the Captain Crunch cinnabon delights at Taco Bell yet I have them this past Monday and they are ok so I was wondering how everyone else thought of them?

[Helsong]

For those considering or currently pursuing higher education.

Oh yeah, and my school's research department is apparently sponsoring me(and a few others) to go to Black Hat and DEFCON. Should be great, despite the dangers of getting hacked(it's going to happen if you bring a device with network capabilities into the con). The breifings and panels should be really damn informative, and the parties are an extra bonus.
Oh, and I'm probably going to end up on multiple watchlists as a result of attendance. Time to get paranoid.

 

[standardtoaster]

I still use a Qanba Q1 stick because I'm or and it was the cheapest somewhat quality stick lol. Cost me like 80

[Giygacoal]

I want to build an arcade stick controller for both fighting games and classic arcade games, but the prices of the parts greatly add up. Maybe I could use a cheap plastic tub as a chassis.

 

[Lizalfos]

I came out to my parents guys.





I told them I was a centrist.

you're just jealous cuz ripple won't make out with you

it-it's not like I w-wanted to or anything

let's all make up and make out :D

 

[Soft Serve]

So I've decided to start on a Halloween costume/Cosplay for next years Pheonix comicon/other events, settled on this alt costume for Beowulf (because I play that color, and I have blonde hair/blue eyes so I dont have to get a wig/eye contacts to do it up right lol)

Finding faux blue fur of a color like that is hard though. I found a perfect jacket from forever 21 that I was going to just order in XL and use the sleeves for the leg covering and the rest the cape, but RIP it was discontinued. Honestly the only hard parts will be getting the fur+hood right, and getting a strong enough magnet to keep The Hurting onto the belt like he has it (and the facial hair, I can't grow anything that manly). The rest will be simple, just dark blue pants, white polo that I'll put the argyle pattern on, some suspenders. a thick belt, similar shoes and a metal folding chair I'll spray paint. This might put my amateur sewing skills to the test (The most I've done in recent years is patch up a few holes in my Ex's jeans, but I used to be good at it lol). I think I'll just get help from my G-ma and I'll just tend to her garden for a few weeks in exchange for the labor.

I know theres a few cosplayers in here, any suggestions on getting the hood/fur sections right?

Also, If I bulk up and fill it out well will I get all the cosplay hunnies?

 

[Mansta]

Oh yeah a few days ago I had a dream that I asked @ Soft Serve out on skype and I was a gorl in the dream, I didn't talk about it because I thought it was super weird.

It's still super weird.

93% of males are less attractive than he is, so you could have done worse.

Spoiler

By the way, statistics are false 83% of the time, especially considering 91% of them are made up on the spot.

the fabric stores that carry good stuff that i know of are dallas only : / i'm guessing you've checked obvious stuff like joann's/michael's/hancock's?

if you can find the right fabric, in theory you can use a basic hood pattern to make the head. now that i think about it, you might be able to find a red hoodie and use that for the inside? it wouldn't be exact, but it could help for a start.

ALTERNATELY: find a giant stuffed wolf, and literally gut and skin it for pieces (if it matches the color you want). if you do that, just get a piece of red to match the inside and more or less just sew it in, but in segments to match the "ribbing" on the inside. (there's ribbing on the inside, right? >.>) you'll have to do the inside as a different color, anyway, regardless of how you make the hood.

the teeth might be obstinate. the best solution would be to make them out of resin and embed them inside of the hood, but that's really really involved and probably not feasible. you can make simple cone patterns out of a white fabric and stuff them with just cotton filling material (or just cotton balls. or, if you gutted and skinned a stuffed wolf, use those innards), then sew that into the mouth. giving it some body is more difficult than i can realistically help with, i just know it involves interfacing and possibly sewing wires in. but once you use wires, you have to be careful of bending them out of shape : / you could stuff the head itself up, but that might not give a nice effect.

the sections on the legs look really simple. if you can get help with those, they shouldn't take too long, since they're basically just giant patches that you'll hook on with belting (most likely) or sew them directly into a pair of pants that would be dedicated to the cosplay at that point. i will say, if you go the belting route, sew belt loops into the thigh/calf areas to run them through, or else that **** is going to slide off all the god damned time. alternately, make some straps to go up to your actual belt (about the same color as your pants, so it's harder to notice) and use that to keep them secured up.

i tried to google around for beowulf cosplay tutorials, but nothing came up, though there are people who've done it. the biggest thing that seems to come off goofy is the wolf head, since the teeth will want to stick in funny directions. i'm not really a tailor/sewer at all, though. i mostly do small leatherworking projects and handsew small pieces to fill in gaps that i can't buy, but need (or that my gf needs help putting together...). so, i can't really point you to good materials and communities for help in that regard : (

I decided I'm going to get serious about learning Japanese after only knowing Hiragana, Katakana and generic weaboo words for about a year.
This is going to be difficult because for 17 years I've had almost zero attention span or studying skills but I'm going to force myself to do it.

Literally all I've been doing for two weeks is talking to people on skype, reading manga and ****posting on imageboards. I'd need to go outside to get better dreams.

Anyone going to Evo? You should say hi and hang out with me . Maybe we can play some PM as well though I haven't played in like 5 months.

Oh god my dad spends all day on the weekends promoting his music and racial social justice. He patrols Facebook like it's his job or something lmao.

Not that I can say anything though.

I'm too much like my dad to do that.
