Thursday, May 5, 2016
12:53 AM - Your chat with ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥ is now a multi-user chat.
12:54 AM - Fenrir Highwind: me when I accidentally left chat
12:54 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor entered chat.
12:54 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Same here, omg.
12:54 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: thought everybody just died, lol
12:57 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: OOOOOO THAT WAS GOOD
12:57 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Painwheel is still difficult for me to get around.
12:58 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Still new to Squigly?
12:59 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: ALMOST UNBROKEN HAHAHA
12:59 AM - Fenrir Highwind: was the first character I tried to learn
12:59 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: ^
12:59 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: he's not a squiggs newb, lol
12:59 AM - Fenrir Highwind: it's a matter of breaking off the rust
1:01 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: OMG THAT WAS WILD
1:01 AM - Fenrir Highwind: I almost forgot Squigs had a DP
1:01 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: kek
1:02 AM - Fenrir Highwind: it sucks without Seria boost
1:02 AM - Fenrir Highwind: no invul otherwise
1:02 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Squigly stands up good on her own, omg.
1:02 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: solo squiggs is hype
1:02 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: not as hype as beo
1:02 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: but still hype
1:03 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Beowulf is intense, omg
1:04 AM - Fenrir Highwind: is that a challenge
1:04 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: the lag actually helped me
1:04 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: I need to remember how much more power characters pack when by themselves, omg.
1:04 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: kek
1:05 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: The lag didn't stop me, amazingly. I could do what I wanted fine, but I was locked in those combos, omg.
1:05 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: solo characters are powerful, lol
1:05 AM - Fenrir Highwind: 1v1 me Darkstalkers
1:05 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: I thought I could still power through her anyway, but, ouch.
1:05 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Lesson learned.
1:07 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: fuck.
1:07 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: THAT ENDING MOVE WAS PERFECT
1:07 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: OMG
1:07 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: I saw that coming but couldn't jump
1:07 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: kek
1:09 AM - Fenrir Highwind: where is your super after 236 series, luke
1:10 AM - Fenrir Highwind: http://puu.sh/oGOlD/772e6c3a72.jpg
1:10 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: I don't know how to use the stronger supers yet, I don't think.
1:10 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: noodle fingers on my end
1:10 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
1:11 AM - Fenrir Highwind: her Berserker Barrage super is 236+PP
1:11 AM - Fenrir Highwind: lvl.3 is 214+PP
1:11 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Oh yeah, I keep forgetting about Cat Scratch Fever.
1:11 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Or we talking another move?
1:11 AM - Fenrir Highwind: yes
1:11 AM - Fenrir Highwind: that is Cat Scratch Fever
1:11 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: I know how to do it, but totally forgot, haha.
1:11 AM - Fenrir Highwind: I just call it Berserker Barrage because that's what it is to me
1:12 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: It really is, pretty much.
1:13 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: I guess that was an overhead
1:14 AM - Fenrir Highwind: nope
1:14 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: wow
1:14 AM - Fenrir Highwind: what move are you talking about
1:14 AM - Fenrir Highwind: cause the only ground overhead Squigs has is 6HP
1:14 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: the last one where leviathan started jabbing me with the tail
1:14 AM - Fenrir Highwind: that's 236LK
1:14 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: jesus
1:14 AM - Fenrir Highwind: it's my  'shit what do I end this with' button
1:15 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: I was guarding that
1:15 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: kek
1:15 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: its the true DM
1:15 AM - Fenrir Highwind: DM?
1:17 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Wow, I didn't get a single win on that, haha.
1:17 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: Desperation Move
1:17 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: basically the clutch button
1:17 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: I think you're derusting nicely.
1:17 AM - Fenrir Highwind: oh, like in KoF
1:17 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: yea, kinda
1:17 AM - Fenrir Highwind: I sort of know what I'm doing, yeah
1:17 AM - Fenrir Highwind: but I would say the derusting is not kind to me
1:18 AM - Fenrir Highwind: I keep not using 236MK to extend combos
1:18 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: Meridian Transit
1:18 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: literal hype train
1:19 AM - Fenrir Highwind: this lack of spawning bots
1:20 AM - Fenrir Highwind: I'm pretty sure I own Robo Fortune
1:20 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: NO MERE EMULATION CAN BEAT THE REAL NADIA *bricked*
1:20 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: how the fuck do you robo-fortune
1:21 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: I plan on getting her, if not Big Band.
1:21 AM - Fenrir Highwind: badly
1:21 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: kek
1:21 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Kinda thinking between her or him now that I've seen more of Big Band.
1:21 AM - Fenrir Highwind: by my standards, tho
1:23 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: OMG HER LINES ARE GREAT
1:24 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: I wanna play so many characters
1:24 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: I wanna be not scrub
1:24 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: :V
1:24 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: I guess I want a lot of things
1:26 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: oh my fuck
1:26 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: HAHAHAHAHAHA JUST WHEN I THOUGHT I HAD IT
1:26 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: you got it
1:26 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: THAT WAS GOOD
1:27 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: you actually pulled off the insurance
1:27 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: kkeekk
1:28 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: "If these puns don't kill you, I will." OMG SHE'S HILARIOUS
1:30 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: noice
1:31 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: that rouge projectile
1:31 AM - Fenrir Highwind: salty runback
1:31 AM - Fenrir Highwind: do it
1:31 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Wow, that was a crazy match.
1:31 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: o
1:31 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: fak
1:31 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: not sure I can pull it off again, lol
1:34 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: FUCK
1:34 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: OOOOOOOOOOOOOO WHAT AN ENDING
1:34 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: kek
1:34 AM - Fenrir Highwind: fraud exposed
1:34 AM - Fenrir Highwind: :^)
1:34 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: :v
1:34 AM - Fenrir Highwind: hmm
1:34 AM - Fenrir Highwind: last game
1:34 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: pretty sure I said I ws shit do
1:34 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: :V
1:34 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: k
1:34 AM - Fenrir Highwind: yes, you did
1:34 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Okay. This outta be a good last match.
1:35 AM - Fenrir Highwind: hmm, I guess dropping a game was inevitable with my super obvious inexperience with this character
1:35 AM - Fenrir Highwind: but regardless
1:36 AM - Fenrir Highwind: FGC law dictates that you do a salty runback if you lose, and the loser of the rematch is a fraud
1:36 AM - Fenrir Highwind: obviously!
1:36 AM - Fenrir Highwind: duh!
1:36 AM - Fenrir Highwind: also, I meant as in the last game I would play
1:37 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: can't fukua for shit now
1:37 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Oops, got a bit too spammy with the basics.
1:37 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: *filia
1:37 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: nah, I'm just scrub :V
1:39 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: shiet
1:39 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: OMG KAIN'S PARASOUL GAME IS TOP NOTCH
1:40 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: UNSTOPPABLE
1:40 AM - Fenrir Highwind: alright
1:40 AM - Fenrir Highwind: ggs everyone
1:40 AM - Fenrir Highwind: was fun
1:40 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: gg
1:40 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: yea
1:40 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Yeah, I had lots of fun too!
1:40 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: This was an awesome sesion.
1:40 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: And more people than I expected. This is great.
1:40 AM - Fenrir Highwind: ya'll need to git gud when we do this thing tomorrow-like
1:40 AM - Fenrir Highwind: :^)
1:40 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: :V
1:40 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: I'll be practicing for sure, omg.
1:41 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: I need to learn moar specials and blocking.
1:41 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: should practice my sonicfox-- I mean fukua
1:41 AM - Fenrir Highwind: ya
1:41 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: And get a better grip on Cerebella's grapples.
1:41 AM - Fenrir Highwind: there's an option to look at movelists
1:41 AM - Fenrir Highwind: in the game itself
1:41 AM - Fenrir Highwind: (I remember when the game didn't launch with movelists)
1:42 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: lol, whut?
1:42 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: it didn't?
1:42 AM - Fenrir Highwind: yeah
1:42 AM - Fenrir Highwind: you had to like
1:42 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Not during multiplayer matches.
1:42 AM - Fenrir Highwind: look up the PDFs
1:42 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Oh, there was a time it didn't? Updates are great stuff, omg.
1:42 AM - Fenrir Highwind: yeah
1:42 AM - Fenrir Highwind: the IPS was also 'broken'
1:42 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: You've definitely been at this for longer than we have.
1:42 AM - Fenrir Highwind: in that it wasn't doing its job properly
1:43 AM - Fenrir Highwind: because it was too lenient
1:43 AM - Fenrir Highwind: basically
1:43 AM - Fenrir Highwind: the current system penalizes you for pressing the same button twice in a row after you do the first string that ends into a special
1:43 AM - Fenrir Highwind: it 'worked' similarly in the old system
1:43 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Good thing update patches are possible. I imagine it took them a while to discover the issue.
1:43 AM - Fenrir Highwind: but it differentiated between standing, crouching and jumping versions of the moves
1:44 AM - Fenrir Highwind: as well
1:44 AM - Fenrir Highwind: Drama meter wasn't a thing
1:44 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: ie no burst
1:44 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: right?
1:44 AM - Fenrir Highwind: so it was possible to actually do a long-ass combo
1:44 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: yea
1:44 AM - Fenrir Highwind: and the game would not recognize any part of it as an infinite
1:44 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: I remember they had to patch out the infinites
1:45 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: and parosoul was just scum because of it
1:46 AM - Fenrir Highwind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEJ3GrfwTOw
1:46 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Ouch. Luckily they didn't let that slide; it's good when devs listen to reasonable feedback.
1:46 AM - Fenrir Highwind: pay attention to when he starts doing strings into cr.HP
1:47 AM - Fenrir Highwind: (scorpion slam move)
1:47 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: damn
1:47 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: this is pretty kek
1:48 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: glad its patched out
1:48 AM - Fenrir Highwind: ya
1:48 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: HOLY- yeah, this is crazy.
1:48 AM - Fenrir Highwind: if you tried the same combo now
1:48 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: you could burst out of it
1:49 AM - Fenrir Highwind: you would get bursted out on your 2nd cr.MP>cr.HP
1:49 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: not sure which is worse,
1:49 AM - Fenrir Highwind: or to be slightly more lenient
1:49 AM - Fenrir Highwind: on your 3rd cr.HP
1:49 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: I think I did the burst a couple times, didn't I?
1:49 AM - Fenrir Highwind: yeah
1:49 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: pre nerf Justice and Dizzy, or all os Skullgirls Vanilla
1:50 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: *all of
1:50 AM - Fenrir Highwind: also, this is for Luke
1:50 AM - Fenrir Highwind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nDEqgQn9ro
1:50 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: OMG THAT LASTS FOREVER HAHAHAHAHA
1:51 AM - Fenrir Highwind: I don't remember the game actually playing this slow, tho
1:51 AM - Fenrir Highwind: might be a result of YT not having 60 FPS back then
1:51 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Maybe it's the frame-skipping in the video?
1:51 AM - Fenrir Highwind: that also
1:51 AM - Fenrir Highwind: but yeah
1:52 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Interframe blending can make the video faster, but it blurs stuff more, so LPers prefer slower FPS over blurring it into a mess at 30FPS.
1:52 AM - Fenrir Highwind: the suspect part is the nomnomnom spam
1:52 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Oh yeah. I keep trying to remember how to do that move precisely.
1:53 AM - Fenrir Highwind: but yeah, release Skullgirls wasn't living up to its own advertising pitch
1:54 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Ouch. Launch week can be rough as it is for any game.
1:54 AM - Fenrir Highwind: somewhere between 'the game has a working anti-infinite system that is intuitive to use for the victim' and 'the game plays like a fixed Marvel vs. Capcom 2'
1:54 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: I didn't know they had lots of work to do post-release.
1:54 AM - Fenrir Highwind: nope turns out none of these are true
1:55 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: I always heard that the game was a shambled mess for the better part of its run
1:55 AM - Fenrir Highwind: vanilla SG was a shitty game a month later
1:55 AM - Fenrir Highwind: after everyone realized how hard you could game the IPS
1:56 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: jesus
1:56 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: kek
1:56 AM - Fenrir Highwind: course, doing these combos still took execution
1:56 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: OMG. I hate they went through that process; where there's a way to break something, people will find it.
1:56 AM - Fenrir Highwind: (and the ones I showed you are not very match practical for the simple reasons of needing a corner and an obscene amount of meter)
1:57 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Which is hard to get, haha.
1:58 AM - Fenrir Highwind: and these long-ass combos were boring as shit to watch
1:58 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Probably fun to do, but a snore to watch; just like golf for me. *bricked*
1:59 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Could they keep the combo going well past the point of the player being dead? OMG.
1:59 AM - Fenrir Highwind: well, you can't harm corpses
2:00 AM - Fenrir Highwind: so no, not technically
2:00 AM - Fenrir Highwind: but the thing about long-ass combos is that you get a bit of time to build meter with them
2:01 AM - Fenrir Highwind: for example
2:01 AM - Fenrir Highwind: in the Miss Fortune combo alone
2:01 AM - Fenrir Highwind: he uses level 3 super almost immediately
2:01 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Wow, that's not practical at all, omg.
2:01 AM - Fenrir Highwind: and then is able to build 2 meters by ending strings into 236 series
2:01 AM - Fenrir Highwind: and nomnomnom
2:02 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Jeez. Launch Skullgirls sounded rough.
2:03 AM - Fenrir Highwind: imagine a match practical combo
2:03 AM - Fenrir Highwind: start with one meter, use it whenever, gain it back whenever
2:03 AM - Fenrir Highwind: just gotta execute
2:03 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: The executing part is what I'm still working on, omg.
2:04 AM - Fenrir Highwind: now
2:04 AM - Fenrir Highwind: I think you can't really do that
2:04 AM - Fenrir Highwind: at least, I can't do that on Parasoul
2:05 AM - Fenrir Highwind: since all her combos tend to end as soon as she uses super
2:05 AM - Fenrir Highwind: at most, I think you can build half a meter during a basic combo
2:05 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Yeah, there's a huge delay after each one of the specials.
2:06 AM - Fenrir Highwind: but yeah
2:06 AM - Fenrir Highwind: that was Skullgirls History 101
2:07 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: It's interesting to know what it went through to get to where it is now.
2:07 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Kinda glad I waited a while to get it now.
2:08 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: You never know how a game's going to perform once it's in the wild. Testers can only test so much.
2:08 AM - Fenrir Highwind: basically
2:10 AM - Fenrir Highwind: ya'll can leave whenever.
2:10 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: k
2:10 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Oh, yeah. I was waiting since I didn't want to look like I was in a rush, haha.
2:10 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: was waiting to see if luke would want another match or so
2:10 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Thanks for the matches, Kain!
2:10 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: yea, ggs
2:11 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: I'd be up for it if you want that.
2:11 AM - Fenrir Highwind: gotta speak up sometime, Ash
2:11 AM - Fenrir Highwind: I thought you died or something
2:11 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: lol
2:11 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: my bad
2:11 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: nah, just picked up my 3ds
2:11 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Well, now we know, haha.
2:11 AM - Fenrir Highwind: also, not mind reader, etc
2:11 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: :v
2:11 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: So you done for tonight?
2:12 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: eh, I guess
2:12 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥: Okay. Thanks again for the fun guys, this was great.
2:12 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: yea
2:12 AM - ♥💖 Sugar Dots 💖 ♥ left chat.
2:12 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor: gonna practice a bit tomorrow
2:12 AM - Loguna Ald'Ecor left chat.
