Parry_This...

Post image
48 Upvotes

So uh I every so often run into Parry_This on fightcade, and usually our sets go about him spamming one move until I start partying it and moving onto the next before one of us calls it. I genuinely used to get rather irritated with this guy, but I began to view him as a landmark to comeback and prove my growth in parries. Almost as if returning to an old mysterious monk you met on your travels just so he can test you once again. He never spoke, only tossed things for me to parry.

Then I ran into him today and he called me a yank and asked why I was zoning like a bitch.

While I was playing Alex...?

I tried to get an explanation, but he just continued to nonsensibly yammer about how it was a celebrity, talk some more shit when ever I lost a round, call me boring, then leave in the middle of the set.

Idk why it's bothering me as much as it is but I honestly developed a bit of reverence for this guy since he had been on FC since I started a year and a half ago, and he was just a total ass today :(

I guess I really shouldn't be giving strangers on FC that much respect...

I made a site to easily find and upload PAL mods

Hey everyone, I put together this website which helps you find cool 3s PAL mods and upload them yourself.

As a guest, you’re free to browse/download/like mods, but if you want to submit mods, you need to register/verify an e-mail address.

I always wanted a tool like this and I hope the community finds it useful!

r/sf3 is alive again. Continue to play Third Strike. It's still a good game.

For those wondering, the subreddit's one and only mod went inactive and left this place unmoderated. This forced Reddit to step in and close the server down for a bit. Anyway, we're back! Say hello to /u/seakladoom (me.) and /u/JALbert. (not me.)

Generally, things should stay just about the same; we're probably not going to do a massive overhaul/upheaval of everything. You might see some extra resources added/server links, but that'll be about the long and short of it.

If there's any recommendations/requests you have for this sub, feel free to drop them in the comments beloooooow.

Palmod ideas?

2 Upvotes

I love messing around with the characters' colour palettes on palmod. Including but not limited to: Goku makoto, pitch black Q, evil Ryu, rainbow twelve.

I'm thinking of making a new set, anyone got any ideas?

The buttons just came in, I get to work on this beauty tonight!

It feels like there's no in-between C and B rank in Fightcade

23 Upvotes

Does anyone else find themselves in this gray area between C and B?

The way I see it, C ranks are the decent, average players. Just one step above C, you hit B rank, and magically you're playing with people who've been playing fighters longer than you've been alive, who know the game inside and out, and have invested thousands of hours into perfecting their character.

I've become borderline paranoid with it, checking profiles before accepting matches or issuing challenges because of this. I'm all for sparring with better players to learn how a good player plays the game, but I do not want to play with these guys who have thousands of hours and will beat me before I can even blink! Right now, I defeat just about every C rank, but I lose every B and above game. I don't want to just play C's forever. I keep hitting B and then losing it.

I'm not saying this because I want to maintain my B rank and I'm not good enough. I'm saying it because I want balanced matches, man. It just really sucks that there's not an easy way to distinguish players by skill level before playing. It just feels like a tossup every time.

I'm sure that soon I'll improve enough to compete with these guys better but damn.
