Fighting Games Weekly | Nov 11-17 | EVO Champions Not Guaranteed

nN8dHBw.png
 
  • What games do you play?
SSF4AE2013, UMVC3, Jojo's, Guilty Gear XX


  • What do you like about the games that keeps you playing?
AE is the only one I can play against people since I don't own a console. UMVC3 is the most flexible, Jojo's has every game mechanic you can think up and Guilty Gear is ok I guess. I wish P4A was on PC.


  • How do you play? (Local scene, online, etc.)
Shitty online, majors, training mode


  • Best and worst moments in the your fighting game career?
Best: 9th place in VF5 at NCR losing to the guy that got 1st, winning a tournament in Soul Calibur 2, winning Capcom contests, making friends at events
Worst: Sleeping through pools, passing out drunk in an elevator when Seth Killian, whom I needed to interview, walks in


  • Favourite fighting game of all time?
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure


  • What do you want from future fighting games?
Shonen Jump vs Capcom

So in the grand scheme of things the movie is irrelevant.

I wonder what was a the end of it, as those pieces are really what contribute to the anchor movies (Avengers, Avengers 2).

I know one of you Eventhubs mofos are reading this.

I HAVE ADBLOCK OFF, WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT FROM ME

WHY DO YOU ADD NEW SCRIPTS EVERY FUCKING WEEK TO THE SITE WHEN IT DOESN'T CHANGE FOR THE VIEWER

I JUST TEMPORARILY ALLOWED THEM AND YOUR SITE STILL DOESN'T WORK

You should be able to email them with the details (I recall hearing that they want to be informed when this happens).

I thought of a few more questions:

Which fundamental traits do you feel you excell at in fighting games (mind games, execution, defense, rushdown, spacing/zoning)?

This is one of the most important questions to ask, IMO.

Hypespotting #3 announced for 29th/30th March 2014, Thistle Hotel, Glasgow, UK.

This tournament is the biggest major in the UK and it's going to be a good year, I think. :)

Info here: http://www.hypespotting.co.uk/

Some feedback:

  • The menus at the top are pretty transparent to me. It took me a good 15 seconds to figure out that they were up there. Remove the gradient, use a contrasting color.
  • The splash image on the front page shouldn't be a hyperlink to the main image. It should probably take you to the page that has the general overview/highlights/selling points of the tournament and links to more in-depth information.
 
I just watched Infiltration vs Fuudo and Xian mentioned that he was forming a team with Gackt and Infiltration for a tournament in Thailand and that Haitani, Sako and Human Bomb were a team. Anyone have an idea of what tournament is this?

I didn't see it, unfortunately. I didn't see that much (if any) discussion on last week's thread either (unfortunately).

It was in the OT. Goes to show that I should pay more attention to this.

Here's the archives for those wanting to watch:

http://www.twitch.tv/ignitegl/b/478183253
http://www.twitch.tv/ignitegl/b/478199406

http://www.twitch.tv/ignitegl/b/478209296
http://www.twitch.tv/ignitegl/b/478234897

I'll try to catch up during the week.

Is there any specific feedback you're looking for, or just wanted to know how the event?

casperOne - Just gathering thoughts on the quality of the stream. The event was superb!

Bah, sorry man, I wish I could be more help there. I did turn the stream on before they got started, but it was a static graphic, and that's obviously not a good indicator.

Sorry again.

Need to be more active in the social circles and plug your twitch name on all streams w/ youtube uploads and reuploads of company-released trailers don't you know the game man I mean come on >:
 
The special events section in the OP is messed up. The info link for both charity events leads to the same Shoryuken post about the tournament in Colorado.

Apparently there's an eight man AE invitational at Capcom headquarters this Saturday 6 PM GMT (from David Hinds).

Should probably update the OT.

I think to really determine who is and are the greatest players is to have some kind of big round robin like Topanga. Maybe there should be a regional round robin tournament with players picked from their region via tournament standings along with voting. And the top three in every region should gather somewhere and have one big round robin tournament to decide who truly is the best in the world.

Round Robin actually sucks as a spectator/hype format because once your matches stop mattering, incentives to not bother with or throw your matches appear. It's good for a league that's playing over time and can have a "playoff race" of sorts.

The Twitch TV Android app just updated today with chat support, and it also appears to have gotten a noticeable performance bump. Looks like my Nexus 7 might become my new stream monster device from here on out.

Nice. My phone's screen is too small to see pretty much anything when it's vertical, but the chat seems to load when the screen is horizontal so you can watch the stream full-screen and rotate the phone if you want to peek at the chat or something.
