USA Chicago Thread: We are actually the best

For those unaware, after NEC the retail game will change over to the beta undizzy and damage scaling changes.

240 undizzy
undizzy takes 30 frames to go back to 0
extra dizzy on CH, 25=light, 50=medium, 100=hard, 50=specials
Undizzy starts tracking at IPS stage 3, but only activates at stage 5
60% scaling on combos that start with assist. 90% for CH

Is NEC this weekend?

Also Night Phyre can you teach me some Bella basics after the change? I understand her basic combos but I don't really know how to actually play the character at neutral.
 
Yes indeed, this weekend.

Ok. Are we already steam'd?
 
Not yet, I think I only have you on PSN at the moment. I believe I'm Nalso on Steam as well.
 
Yo.

For the monday ignite tournaments how you guys feel about "anime" starting earlier. BB/SG at 8, then SF4/MvC3 at 9. Speak now

Does that mean that we could get some actual streaming going? If so, I'm all for it.
 
No idea. Still need to think about the stream schedule. If I keep this then we might be able to fit it in depending on how big the BB turnout is, or whatever game is in the same block. Just as well, we would need enough for a bracket to make for the simplest stream, instead of a RR with random selected matches on it. As much as I love the game I need to respect the numbers from other games. Still thinking about it all.
 
Also, we should try and make a night for local lobbies, yeah?

I get it, I really do, but seriously, how much of an imposition to others would it be to stream our little, "top 8?" Even if we end up with less than the necessary 7 people, why not just RR until we have a top 4, then stream that? No matter how we do it, it's over in an instant if we organize and execute.

Yes. I vote Sunday.

Sunday local lobbies sound great provided this crappy computer wants to work with me. Should be back to my normal computer by the end of the month.

I might be down to come by Ignite next week. :)
 
Noah can you make a setup a bit early tonight so we can get some matches in? Trying to get back in the saddle.
 
Will do! I'll be there early as always and i'll queue that shit up
 
Great turnout everyone! Getting 20+ before a console patch is pretty huge. Shoutouts to hopefully never having to run a PC tournament ever again. Big props to @LaSombra for leveling up.
But watch your back :PUN:

I was just happy to help, even if I could only offer my set up for 90% of it. I should've won my second match tho. No salt to be had because I actually got to play offline skullgirls with good people for a long time, wish I got some games in with duck/lasombra before I had to leave.

And what's wrong with using PC's? Mine was pretty much just plug and play, the only issue I saw was that people kept trying to plug their sticks into the hdmi port...
 
Hey, it was nice meeting you, man! I really hope you'll be able to come out again.
 
Yeah seriously offline play is the sexiest thing. Hope to make it out to more stuff to satisfy the urges.

Thanks and ggs to everyone I played in casuals and stuff.

Nothing is standard about a PC. Not everyone has a beefy tower to run the game perfectly. One of the setups used for this very tournament ran the game like crap.

Yes, it was plug and play for the most part, but what if someone had a controller that wasn't supported as easily? Consoles are much more dependable.

Consoles are just better to bring to an event. If the console version was out we might have had a casual setup on sunday (of which there was none). It would have been easier to set up on stream (which is a real thing holding it back from major streams) and perhaps we wouldn't have a power failure on us in grand finals.

/rant.

Happy new year!

I should add to this that towers are a pain to transport and gaming laptops are a serious threat to be stolen due to their dollar value. Consoles are both transportable and easier to replace.
 
stuff
I want to add that the stream setup felt a little laggy and I think it was because of the way the PC setup had to be hooked up. Those drops weren't because we were nervous.
The tournament setup was alright for the most part but I'd still rather play on console because of how much easier it is.

Also, is the stream footage going to be uploaded because if not I could do that.
 
Beats me, I wouldn't think it's on the top of Alex's priorities though.
 
I would take shots but I haven't even made it to Sunday's footage yet, still have 5 hours of Tekken to wade through :/
 
Will there be a SG setup at Ignite today?
 
I can make that happen for sure, but it seems every time I do no one shows up! There is $5 venue tonight, fwiw.

I'll try to be there next week. "Tournament," night, right?
 
Yep! if people show we can certainly run a bracket, although I would certainly like consoles to drop first grumble grumble
 
Okay. I will be down for some SG and KOF tonight.
 
Hey hey, monthly tomorrow! We may have an ignite set-up, bu Nightphyre will be bringing a laptop just in case. Come on out!
 
As long as I don't get bodied by the weather, I should be in attendance.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
 
Late as hell GGs at Ignite last monday y'all. Another week closer to a PS3 patch...
 
Consoles are upon us! Now I can actually have a setup at Ignite every week.
 
Assuming I get my code and whatnot by this afternoon I'll be on tonight, hope to catch some of you online.
 
I can't make Ignite tonight, but from Tuesday on I actually am free to play a bunch of vidyas all week if someone wants to get some PSN matches and/or come to Pazzo on Friday.
 
Can we get some of the SG monthly streamed on Monday?

Also, can you make it Duck? I could use some tips on playing Filia, and I think we'd all enjoy some sets with you.
