And the fact that I get bodied at Next Level in Marvel, but can get 2nd place consistently at Mashfest is pretty nice. I think the "seriousness" of the FGC is a huge detriment. Yes it should be competitive, but some ppl want to have fun and perform pretty well, not win money and be cheap/salty all the time.
I'd suggest front paging positive articles, positive events an locals that are thriving
I front paged this to support Sabin in hopefully getting a much stronger turnout next week. Therefore, that is the positive side to this.
PSL, eh? I used to work there right next to a GameStop. Well, St. Lucie West, anyway.
Yeah but those are just monthly tournaments in jersey.
Savage Saturday is this weekend with Injustice actually
REO keeping it real, but honestly, I still think mk9 was the best mk (just my opinion because I was young when the older ones came out and I just enjoyed how big mk9 got overall).
You, cowboy, Rico theo and p2w are best I've played in injustice
Yeah -- the VSM scene for MK was more of a team/family spirit thing though than a Chinatown showdown vibe. So without that there's an element that was present last year that was missing.
I don't think anyone is getting exposed or etc. I actually believe that if we were all just playing both games, we'd probably be having more fun overall and not arguing so much. It is like Democrats vs Republicans in this piece lol, that isn't good.
The slaughterhouse in NJ that Andrew and I have been running with Shock have nothing to do with VSM. VSM itself at the gamers edge, weekly thursdays is dead. The monthlies we've been doing are very much alive.
I feel you on this, but SF2Turbo isn't at majors, isn't even a side tournament most of the time, doesn't have many known teams; SF is the most historic fighting game franchise, but there are still probably as many people that play MK9 competitively in some countries as the people that play SF2 competitively here.Man I have no issue with IGAU and playing it (neither does my bro), but I find it so damn dumb that we couldn't just play both and call it a day. I mean really, my bro won evo mk9 and almost won IGAU, I got top 16 in both mk and IGAU, and others did well in both games (reo got top 8 in both mk and IGAU), so what is the issue? 2 years for a fighting game is pathetic LMAO, sf2 turbo has been out for like 20 yrs and ppl still finding stuff, no one should be calling a game fully fleshed out after 2 years, that's absurd. I feel like it'd help so much if we'd just play both games, then everyone could be happy and we'd be helping MK10 when it comes out, with ppl just giving up on mk9 (or having no one to play with), that just shows that we'll do that with every NRS game, play it....new game comes out...... drop the old game...... rinse and repeat. Rant over lol
I understand your point of view, its a matter of preference tho, you can't force them to play what they don't want to.
actually there are some who still play (or are willing to play both). Me and my bro will always be willing to play mk9 no matter what, and i'm sure others are as well. Yeah I understand what you mean, I dnt want to force ppl to play both, but it'd be better overall for us as a community to play both because it'll give mk10 good rep when it comes out. I want mk10 to EXPLODE on the scene when it comes out, and this separation we have is not good.I understand your point of view, its a matter of preference tho, you can't force them to play what they don't want to.
In my country there is this saying: "Preference can't be arguable" 90% of the players prefer MK9 over Injustice due its games mechanics, so lots of ppl still play MK9 and call Injustice Scrubby.
Yet, are those who dropped MK9 and are focused on Injustice, because they're tired of being Sub-Zeros and have to fight Kabals on daily basis, seeing Skarlet winning every tournament, Cyrax getting all Nº2 spots. However the injustice players are reduced to a number of two maybe 3 ppl.
I think i'm the only who is actually playing both games.
I can't force them to play a game they don't want to, while some are undecided i'm trying whatever it comes down, Inj, SF, MK9, TTT2, Anything, at least until Mk10 comes out.
i'm not beating ppl up about not playing both, but I find it quite hilarious that many were like (yeah we'll play both), then when IGAU comes out, many just pushed mk9 to the side. That's my problem (and I know it is the problem of others) with the IGAU and MK9 situation. If ppl want to play one game, go on ahead, but me and others are getting tired of the mk9 vs IGAU debates on TYM all the time lol, it's getting redundant, repetitive, and old now.
agreed, mk9 is the best mk9 to date.
