Your implying people on here are not to bright. Thw WT is where you ho to win at all costs. ITST is a different ball game so to speak, you know this.,I agree with the article but it has no relevance here

It has nothing to do with playing SF with racquets, or playing 'unfair', or playing to piss people off, you are making a straw man argument....so just forget it you wouldn't understand anyways

Yeah, I´m really dumb. Sorry for that. I´ll do a philosophy course to try to understand the depths of the human mind.

Wouldnt understand? please man who you think you´re talking to? a 13 year old kid who cant read a article and understand what it says?.

I understood the article, it says that these cheese tactics make gamers step up their game so that they can counter-cheese and counter the counter-cheese, but it doesnt apply here you know why?

beacause of this
I agree, it doesn't even matter if they're not working for you and I'm blasting them for winners, if you're hitting a drop shot every point you're just making the match retarded for both people.


Yours words taken from a diferent topic, cheese tactics make the game retarted for both people in TS4, unlike SF.

Do you understand or do i need to spell it out for you?

jayl0ve wrote:Those 'rules of sportsmanship' though are the 'mental blocks' the article mentions. They're artificial.


Of course they're artificial, but it's not necessarily a negative.

jayl0ve wrote:Also see the point in the article where he says something to the effect of 'if a game isn't 'fun' when played at a high level, then that's the game's fault, not the player's'.

TS4 is just a far inferior game to SF2 so I guess it's a stretch, but I think a ton of that article applies.


This is the thing, this 'higher level'... the stuff he talks about with SF, I can accept that's at a higher level. 'i think TS is the other way round... the 'cheese' tactics aren't exactly sophisticated or complex, and it's higher level comes only when you put these artificial restraints in place.... If you're talking about people complaining about setups etc then i suppose it's a little more relevant, but it's still a different beast altogether

Re: the bit about it being the game's fault not the players- that might well be the case, but i see this place as good attempt at fixing it...


jayl0ve wrote:Also, the 'emphasis on winning' is not weird, these kind of articles and the strategies discussed therein are kinda aimed at tournament-level players (i.e guys who go to EVO to compete in Street Fighter), and winning is all that matters.


Fair enough.

In my humble opinion (ahem!), some part (and maybe more than we think) of Jay's article could be largely applied to any games where competition, and therefore skills, is involved...
But maybe we could also "tone it down" a bit (is that a correct sentence?...) for the most part of us who just want to have fun...
My brilliant 2cents thought... ^^

Ho! And Ken>Ryu!!! :twisted:

Haha!
