GGs at ignite!

Hiro, some people are meeting at my place on saturday before Nickel City if you're up for it. And my trick o beat K' is to not drop combos and not whiff dp's. It has worked like a charm for me.

Idk, I've only played against Noah and that was my first time playing him. But anyways I thought our match was very responsive. I need to test it out against u Brandon to see if there is any difference since you're the only one I've played online pre-patch.

Shit was silky fucking smooth. Very happy with the update when it comes to local. My biggest pet peeve with the original netcode was that it if anything happened it would keep the input delay for the duration of the round. Now when there's a skip, it's back to the same.

However, I friended some random green bar before the patch, and played him last night. A lot of small hiccups happened for few matches. Might be the connection or might be the net code, so take that with a grain of salt.

first match after the patch was with somebody with green bars...i guess it wasnt too laggy...but he was tier whoring and trolling me, so i wasnt really paying attention..plus it hit a lag bump here or there anyway. everyone else after him has had red bars as usual, so this marks yet another week where training mode is the only option for practice   weak sauce lol see you guys tomorrow...looking forward to finally getting to play a real match again


edit-almost right after i posted this i got like 3 or 4 different awesome connections in a row. turned into a cool night. my foots in my mouth haha

If any of you chicago players wanna test a connection from there to Minnesota my PSN is DesmonDelaghetto. It would also be cool to play some of you guys I didn't get a chance to at Frosty Faustings. I hangout in the dc toolbar chat if you want to find me and others to play online.

Most of the FGC goes to Galloping Ghost Arcade on Thursdays. Saturday gatherings are usually at Nickel City. But this Saturday there is a tournament coming up at Ignite Network at around 1pm. So most likely the FGC won't be at Nickel's this Saturday.

Nickel City shouldn't be too hard to get up to either. I have a meeting in Rosemont and want to hit up a few games while I'm in the city on Saturday.
