just now tried to perform ryu's another bread and butter combo? which is jump kick-crouch punch-crouch kick-hadouken-fadc-stand punch-shoryuken having hard time to get crouck kick after crouch punch fast enough for the 1st part and 2nd part where after FADC dashing towards opponent the canceling from stand punch to shoryuken i mess up most of times any idea how to do it better?
Sakura's in this? Game over folks. Hopefully she gets her Shinku Hadoken Ultra. Time to shut shit down!
Yes, neither are very interesting character. One is a female counterpart of Dan and the other is a karate girl who looks 90% like a guy. Guess Capcom's only intent on bringing characters from Japan. Akuma, E Ryu, Makoto, Sakura, what's next? Anyways does anyone have any tips for beating that completely messed up boss known as Akuma? I cannot imagine how there can be any difference between normal, hard, and gruelling for this guy, because I think vanilla SF4's Bison on grueling is easier than this guy on normal mode. Yes I cannot beat him on normal mode with any character other than my two favourites, Bison and Honda. In fact I have trouble damaging him at all with fireball characters. The AI is ridiculously messed up - 2x more health, able to join moves together that is otherwise impossible by player characters (standing double kick + low kick + tatsu + goshoryuken, I tried that and it's not possible, yet I got hit by it and lost like half my health bar in one combo), has a double air fireball that wastes no energy bar, and predicts your every damn move. Trying to land a super on him is like trying to avoid getting hit by gruelling Bison's ultra...
normal mode? the double round house combo is possible but u might substitute the crouch punch with standing punch because i find it easier to do this way I've only beat him in Normal Mode with Blanka and Ryu so far
1) be more defensive in general, 2) don't anyhow throw fireballs for nothing, 3) never jump when he or Bison has ultra or SC 4) watch out for his fireballs, best chance to jump in to do some damage 5) akuma's combo can be done, it's not fast, there's a certain timing to it. Have you completed Akuma's challenges? If so, you should have no problem... 6) use your super in a combo situation is the easier bet. See my earlier post about beating him with Ryu...
Maybe its her red undies? Kidding... I hope to see Dan... Sakura is not a fantastically unique character to get into as her move set are not that unique... IMO I prefer DAN...
Dumb question. Why everytime I play solo a new player enters the ring from online??????? I'm new and just want to Practice...
Just disable it... Under Solo Play, beside the "Solo Play Mode" words on top left, there is an icon with 2 MSN looking guy... Click that and set "Fight Request" as Always Off...
If i could be of any help, i would like to say that i found to be the easiest to beat anybody in grueling by just attacking 80% of the tine! For example, i used chun-li, sagat, ryu, cammy and c. viper and it worked for all of them! i just jump->kick->kick then defend for the attack or use a ultra or special! basically just jump a lot I can`t wait for sakura, definetely she is going to be tied to my most used character
wow, that's great news, waiting for next update... "jump -> kick" doesn't always work, they counter with SRK or another alike. To win on grueling you have to play carefully but not on defensive.
I got a quick question: how do you counter people that constantly jump kick towards you when using you are using Bison? It's really tough dealing with them since he doesn't have any decent anti-air without using EX moves... I tried teleporting away but that only works every once in a while.
It's pretty tough after a takedown that you can't tech and right when you're standing, they're already in your face with that jump kick. They do some tiny combo that I block, and hop over me to the other side with the jump kick again. Those are the most annoying ones where I'm just stuck in between their jump kicks.
