    Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown

    Everyone can be a fast character. Poke poke poke the shit out of people who are quick and wail on you. P, 3P, 6P, 2P, reversals and sabakis... Hell, you play Wolf? You might want to watch the wolf games in these streams. http://www.twitch.tv/leveluplive/b/320620314...

    Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown

    For XBL, to my understanding it should drop early in the morning in NA, so probably around noon in Europe.

    Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown

    I don't know much about Akira because I couldn't care less about the bastard. ON ANOTHER NOTE, THE GAME IS NOW OUT ON PSN! I still have to wait a day for the xbox release... Also the complete game is 30$ right now for PSN users instead of 45$.

    Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown

    Throw escapes were not really about reaction in VF5 vanilla. In SOME cases you could maybe react, but usually it was option select stuff, like ETEG. Evade, Throw Escape, Guard. It's still that way in FS, but it's easier to execute and more of a mind game, and now you can simply block normally...

    Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown

    You don't need to learn all the frames. First off every characters' frames are pretty similar so once you know the frames for one character, you can understand the frames for every characters. Secondly, all you really need to know is whether your move is safe/unsafe, and leaves you at frame...

    Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown

    Yesterday, Ultrachen streamed VF5FS with LA Akira, who is NA's only VF "Star player". He explains the game very well, a good mix of basics, average stuff and some advanced bits that many players won't already know about, so it's excellent to get a good, honest peek at how the game works...

    NOWS MY CHANCE

    This discussion was interesting, until tag walked in and smeared shit all over the floor. I can't understand how anyone could actually be annoyed by what was happening above. Damn people here suck.

    Types of Scrubs

    It's always a pleasure to beat the one-string scrubs. Normally I would want to give them some tips, but that bullshit deserves no mercy. I still remember my numerous losses against these one-string scrubs when I was learning everything while following THE PROTOCOL ... like a fool.

    Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown

    Item victory poses, and you can see a little bit of customization too. Actual matches from the recent pre-launch party : FT5 between Fuudo and Chibita! I like one of the top comments on the youtube page.

    Very very new...

    I'm not a serious Hilde player, but maybe I can help anyway. One of her big strengths is :2::2::B:, it leads to a combo and you should practice that combo first. The combo uses charged moves and to perform it you actually need to do :2::2:[:B::A:] (press B first, then A, and hold them both.)...

    VF5FS Pre-Launch Party Stream !

    June 5th for PSN, June 6th for XBL. This thread only had 20 views by the time the stream ended, I should have posted that sooner... But at least during the Chibita vs Fuudo matches we had 2700 viewers, which is pretty awesome for VF! The archive was recorded here ...

    advanced tactics

    I don't understand what you mean by "its a 3f game". Safe strings... well even if a move is safe, you still usually end up in disadvantage if your attack was blocked. So if you finish a string, it was blocked, and then you continue to attack, you run the risk of getting countered. Did you...

    Noob having trouble doing the right move

    I use the default controller stick. At first I had troubles with 236 motions, 214 even more, but after a few weeks I had no more problems. I spent a little while in practice mode specifically to understand where my problems were coming from and how to solve them. I don't understand how people...

    Hey all!

    Ah, sidestepping is not really about knowing all that much. If you're blocking a string like Cervantes' or Aeon's BBB, you can sidestep the third B and punish it, so knowledge is applicable for that sort of thing, but... Otherwise if your attack was blocked, it's pretty much about anticipation...

    Hey all!

    Viola is considered a good character for those with a 2D background so maybe you would like to try her. On the other hand you can simply try anyone else. Nightmare is not a generic character, he kinda falls in some kind of niche. Same for Viola and Devil Jin actually... I watched your first...
