Wow, that must make me about F-

 

i've gotten pretty good at mixing up offensively, but on defense i'm still the sitting target i've always been.

D+ i guess.

 

I'm on the line between good and pro... but mostly good at VF.

Good /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif<-------(where I fall)------------------------>/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif Pro

 

I think I'm a -C... or ~ 60-70th percentile. (I would beat probably 60 out of a 100 different online players... I don't really get to play offline /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/frown.gif )

 

Nigga come play with us

 

No offline /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/shocked.gif

I can tell you from personal experience that a crowded room, the mere sound of the speed of your opponents attacks as they hit the stick, the tension as everybody is watching you, the realization that you're going to have to say something to everybody there win/or loose DRAMATICALLY (at least for me) affects your play/performance. Its one thing playing against friends that you've grown accustomed to or online where you don't really feel the pressure. Its another thing when its live and you can almost physically feel the force of your opponents attacks and their attack patterns are totally foreign.

Although I haven't played VF online, I do play a few other fighting games online and in my experience, online and offline
are two very different experiences. I think there far more emotion offline than online. The primary emotion happenin online is frustration. Offline has way more the 'Thrill of Victory and the Agony of Defeat[/size]' goin on.

Maybe this post should have been Rate Your Play Online, Rate Your Play Offline /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif

 

I believe that the whole concept of rating somebody's prowess is awufully arbitrary and, how should i put it... dragonball-esque /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif

I'm afraid you have me at a disadvantage /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif

 

To be honest i originally wanted to post about how "input speed" and "input accurcy" should count as 2 different categories, but then i realized i didn't really believe in what i was about to write /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/frown.gif

 

my play is ,on a scale of 1 to 100 im about 20 to 30 i was getting decent and got burnt out (i was putting in 4 to 5hrs every other day) and now when i try 2 play its day 1 all over again

 

That the reason why i really don't like playing this online. No witnesses to the ass whoopins people don't mention lol!
Man i remeber those days offline where we'd pile up in Dabadseed house talking mad shit about 10 deep friday night on VF4. You had to be able to thrive under pressure/Smack talking cause if you lost you'd be waiting for atleast 8 people to get on before you turn came again.

 

Dont know about 8 but ive waited 6 deep in my own house during an all nighter. We played till 6am one time.

 

I give myself a D+ seriously /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif

 

Ha! You suck! D++ Downtown Crossing status represent! I got the best jacky around

 

LMAO E++! SERIOUSLY sabaki 236 p+k A++, Against cozby DARN IT F++ it doesnt work well /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif

 

i think every akira player goes through these stages, me included. i also used to have a terrible habit of always getting up with doublepalms. also i used to use akira`s DMPK a lot until i finally realised just how shit it really is.

 

I'm still at that skill level plateau.

 

Damn...sadly I've all but forgotten about that shit. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif Things just aren't what they were for me when arcades were really running rampant here or when I used to get together with folks.

 

Hi from NYC, im new here.

Well im currently a 10th Dan with 73%, I been slowly improving since I started playing online around January.During the past month I started to dominate 7th Dan and lower players, had really good matches with 8th, 9th 10th dans, but still lose most of my matches agaisnt Master and up ranks.

I had a lot of trouble with players like Panther Neo Geo, Air Jacky, Grusselgrosser (something like that) and had no chance in hell agaisnt ppl like Erica Fountaine, VF Hayato and Killa Ken.

I primarly use Lei Fei.

So i dunno, maybe C+ ?!

 

good job astro. Hit me up sometime. My tag is
social ruin
I remember that exact same climb. I remember it so well. Maybe i can give u some pointers that will help u shorten that gap to BEING the Master+ that 10th dans can't beat. Most of the time i can nab wins from 10th dans at about a 70% clip or better. Of course, it all depends on who the 10th dan is.
