If you're hosting, make sure to mention whether you're using sokuroll or not.

>>11428113
Roll 1.3 on.

>>11428119
why would you ever NOT use sokuroll?

>>11428113
too much lag for my taste, sorry

>>11428118
I'm a scrub Marisa who hasn't played seriously since 2011.

And I use a 360 pad. I wonder if I'm allowed to join in.

I've never played before but I intend to in a few hours after I'm done lunch/showering/etc.

Without knowing anything at all, I am committing myself to Reisen.

Remember when we thought a new fighter game would be fun? Fuck you Tasofro.

>>11428174

Sorry for the bad playing. I wanted to see if netplay worked. I guess I have to learn how to play this game now. If i can ask, are there any character suggestions?

>>11428215
depends on your play style. you can look up play styles at hisouten.koumakan.jp

89.92.211.64:10800

Hosting

>>11428215
Depends of which one do you like or want.
Like, Youmu, Aya, Reisen, Meiling are speed melee characters, While Yuyuko and Patchy are bullet spamming.

Many players start playing this game with Youmu.
But if it were me, I'd start playing with Yukari.

if i loved MBAACC and thought HM sucked dick should i download this game?

>>11428224

Probably not. It has nothing in common with MBAACC at all, aside from being a doujin game.

>>11428224
HM is shit, if you liked MBAACC you'll love Hisoutensoku

>>11428224
This game is nothing like MBAACC or HM, so it's hard to say whether you'll like it or not.

Personally for me it's my favorite all time fighting game.

>>11428224
I like MB and Soku because I played with /jp/ a ton back in '10 and '11. I pretty much stopped playing completely after /jp/ stopped having the threads, kind of lost motivation to play after that. ;_;

You might like soku if you enjoyed MBAACC, they're completely different games though.

Please host

You can still do that, unless you mean the part where everybody knows how to shut your ass down if you start doing it.

Sorry for the lag on the later matches I'd rather stop until I get that sorted out(which will take a while since it will only go away once the culprits go to sleep)

GGs. The lag wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be, not counting that one match where it went nuts.

>>11429797
I wonder how everybody suddenly leveled up in 2011. It's like the entire Touhou community began playing on Lunatic and 1ccing every game when before that, people struggled with the most basic of things.

Don't forget to forward the 10800 port too. Most people seem to forget this part.

>>11432963
GGs, Critz. Thanks for the matches. I haven't played this game in months, was fun. I don't think we're suited for 3delay though, seemed to be a bit skippy but maybe that's just me. My Marisa is as ADHD and hoppy as ever.

Sanny is fun to fight, too bad there aren't more people playing her.

>>11432895
Still hosting
I *believe* I fixed it but no one joined since I did so

No one said anything about failed to connects since then too so if anyone could at least test it i'd be thankful.

>>11433058
Tell me about that. No one plays Sanae unless they're bored of other characters.

>>11433061
Just tried it - connection failed.

>>11433063
I tried to learn her when I was playing this game a few months ago, but then I just kinda stopped playing fighting games altogether. I found that Marisa suits my spazzy playing style much better, but I kind of feel bad about mashing spark as a reversal sometimes. I'm surprised at how much 66C->wait->3-card spark works on people, they always get smacked trying to punish it.

>>11433081
Go figure managed to fix it so I could connect to people but still didn't fix hosting myself.

Back to try everything until it fixes...

>>11433057
Nope. whatismyip.org gives the same ip i've been using and the port should be fowarded

Problem freaking solved

Want to know what it was?

When I got my IP from whatismyip.com it was showing my IP from YESTERDAY

I checked it on some other side and the IP was different and then I tried it with a friend using that IP and it worked

In short whatismyp was giving the wrong IP for the entire time i've been *trying* to host and I never really had to fix anything myself

Well with that out of the way.

>>11433434
>>11433406
>>11433400

It's crazy to think how long /jp/ played SWR and soku and then compare it to 13.5. 13.5 was dropped so fast because the roster sucks (come at me), and it's just not as fun.

Honestly, I think it's because it feels less like a fighting game. I hate that everyone is in perma-fly mode.

test

>>11433449
I don't mind flying but I wish everything was faster. I don't get that go-fast feeling from HM.

The real solution would be to stop playing Koishi whose dash is actually just a stroll, but that would be too easy.

>>11433449
It's not about the roster but the game itself.

Someone host.

>>11433469
Maybe, but the roster being shit doesn't help its case any.

Don't bully #hisouten. Even though I didn't like the community and it made me quit fighters for six months(the fighting game community is rude and obnoxious), I'm sure they're still decent people.

That said, I'm happy that /jp/ is playing MB and soku again. I'd love to play on IRC and find some delicious Marisa players to level up with, but I don't feel like dealing with that type of community right now.

>>11434165

I'm okay with that!

>>11434167
The fighting game community is what killed Soku for me. Win or lose, people just got way too salty when they played.

>>11433884
I played with you one game but there was a blackout, sorry.

>>11434164
Well seems everyone is finished

stoppin hostin thanks for the matches everyone.

>>11434182
Pretty much this. IRC has a few bad apples, mainly that mancunt remilia-scarlet who will not shut up about it's personal life and how bloohoo I have parkinsons thats why I lost, or ohh my blood sugar is low we'll rematch later thats why i lost.

If people played characters they liked instead of flowcharting the best, the community would be much better. But nope, gotta have dem tier lists, gotta play the best, gotta be the best, no scrubs, mango sentinel.

I feel like I'm stuck in a difficult place with soku. I'm better than nearly everyone on /jp/, and worse than nearly everyone on #hisouten. So either I get completely destroyed, or I feel like I'm bullying new players. If I host, I get hopeful naive jpers who don't have a good time, until "that guy" shows up and reminds me why I hate this game when played at a decent level.

I wish I still sucked, or cared enough to get actually good.

>>11434247
The /jp/sies eventually have to get better if they keep playing, and will eventually reach or pass your skill level.

>>11434247

I won't get salty or feel bullied after I get this installed.

I've never played soku before, but I have survived the acidic wasteland that is the Guilty Gear FGC.

I am immune to salt at this stage of my life.

>>11434240
Yo FUCKING ONLINE TACTICS Hehehe that would have never worked offline what a scrub! See me in AE nerd hahaa you'll never beat me there. Wooooow, I was pressing buttons did you see that shit? Mad fuckin lucky, my hands are cold hahahaha what a scrub he'd never beat me in the summer time YO mad lucky, I'm just sweaty so my hands slipped off the buttons. Lose/lose no matter what.

>>11434247
I leveled up a lot by playing on #hisouten, but it made me hate fighting games for awhile because of the community. You'd probably beat me pretty easily though, I was one of the few shitters on IRC.

>>11434270
GG has one of the worst communities I have ever seen. I thought soku was pretty awful, but those people are insane.

>>11434247
I hear you man. I try to round robin characters if I can win the match, which helps when playing the average player. I've learned to avoid very new players unless they ask for games. In the end though, I only regularly play against one or two people.

>>11434272
>>11434276

You both sound like nice fellows who will hopefully play with me after I get it set up. No drama, salt or whinging, honest.

>>11434288
Girls do their best and are preparing. We'll wait warmly until it is ready.

Is there anything that I should change on the SokuRoll.ini?

>>11434240
what is the tier list? If my mains are high I'll feel like a try hard. Though I never win anyway

>>11434298

Can't promise it's tonight, so don't wait up.

I'm willing to host if anyone wants to play.
67.166.249.0:10003

>>11434325
In my opinion, Sakuya, Okuu and Iku are the best. Still pretty good is Remilia, Suika and Youmu.

>>11434333
Damn, now I feel tryhard-y. Suika is my best, and I like to play Remilia once in a while. How about Patchouli and Suwako?

>>11434342
Suwako is amazing if you know what to do but she's pretty hard to play

>>11434325
Sakuya and Yuyuko are the IRC tourneyfag-tier.

High up there are Reisen, Tenshi, and I think Reimu.

The only "garbage, never play" characters are Suika, Suwako, and Aya, although people will argue the shit out of that because you can be good with anybody you practice with.

Pretty much just play whoever you want, and watch out for Sakuya players since they are eternal faggots.

>>11434325
http://hisouten.koumakan.jp/wiki/Diagram

>>11434342
Tiers don't matter unless you're very good, very bad, or playing a totally gimped character.

>>11434353
At least we're in agreement that Sakuya is top of the top tier. I havn't seen a dominating Reimu in a long time since Magister pre-soku days. Back then Aya was also godly before they nerfed her supers.

>>11434365
Suika used to be fucking top tier too before nerfs, then again she kind of needed them.

Aya got hit way too hard though.

>>11434353
>The only "garbage, never play" characters are Suika, Suwako, and Aya
Whoa, seriously? I thought Cirno was down there as well, and Suika was mid tier after some nerfs. Then again, I was never clear on who was good and who was bad in this game.

>>11434369
Aya's damage got dropped into nothing.
Cirno is more of a trolling character, she hovers around low-mid mainly because nobody really plays her seriously.

But like everybody has said before, everybody is viable if you like the character and are willing to learn, theres very few mash-to-win characters unless you're Patchouli spamming C fireballs against new players.

>>11434368
To add to this, an average Sakuya is a lot of fun to play against. When the player learns to abuse her wacky hitboxes then things become brutal.

>>11434353
>>11434374
>>11434371
>>11434369
Despair.

>Okuu top tier
>Aya garbage

>>11434398
>>11434399
She's my favorite 2hu, I feel the same way but I can't deny the truth.

>>11434358

I still don't buy Alice being higher tier than Yukari, Reimu, Suika, and Youmu. It also surprises me to see Komachi so low. I thought she was at least B tier

>>11434419
Well, those charts are a year out of date...

>>11434419
Komachi runs out of gimmicks really fast.

I don't know why Alice is so high either, I see FireballFlame in IRC pull of some really fucking cool shit with her, but its always like 20x more effort than the other guy has to do to achieve the same result.

>>11434413
You don't need to acknowledge a truth like that. Some of the West's most famous players are D-tier specialists.

>>11434247
Well you're not going to improve if you don't play harder players.

>>11434425
When was the last patch?

>>11434492
Tiers are based on average player aptitude, not numbers.

If a lot of really good people suddenly picked up Cirno and started blasting everybody's shit, she'd be considered top tier.

Thats why tier lists are garbage.

>>11434508
So, why do all those good people pick Sakuya and not Cirno?

>>11434520
Because Sakuya has a lot of easily abusable moves and hitboxes, therefore people pick her for easier wins.

>>11434527
And if she has easily abusable things, is she not better?

>>11434520
Because Sakuya has good corner loops, dense bullets, fast bullets, good oki, good spellcards, and good hitboxes.

Cirno has one fast bullet (which is more like a big melee than anything else), one dense bullet special (at max level), and a few good hitboxes.

>>11434481
Yeah, the thing is I don't really care to improve anymore. Soku isn't a big thing for me. But my experience still makes me better than most of /jp/. Hence, stuck in the middle.

>>11434532
Yes, I know what you're trying to get at.

But think of it this way, if nobody played Sakuya properly, or put time into figuring out all these broken moves, would she still be considered top tier?

The fact that you can play an unpopular character and hit them with moves they've never had to practice against is a merit in its own.

>>11434543
The thing about gimmicks is that they only work a few times on good players.

Sakuya is great because people figured out all her broken shit and dominated people with it. Cirno has nothing broken to figure out, so people can't.

>>11434508
Tiers are based on performance and player consensus. Really good people don't suddenly pick up low tier chars and blast everyone's shit because they're terrible chars, so they won't or can't do it. There is a reason they are low tier, and it isn't because good players just so happened to not feel like playing them.

>>11434543
Do you think people didn't put time into trying to figure out broken moves for other characters?

I bet there are at least a few goodies out there who tried really hard to find some way to get their favourite to the top of the tier list, but they failed for a reason.

>>11434575
Well, I think what the poster was trying to say is that the tier list is built off of statistically generated values across all skill levels and does not account for meta game changes or character popularity. To fix this though, I'm not sure of a better approach other than having the option to possibly weight the picks based on some sort of elo system.

>>11434601

Thanks for the games.

>>11434353
Tenshi and reimu aren't high tier.

Aya and suika are pretty high, and in the jp toplist they are even some suwakos, In the top 20.

the characters that have hard time dealing with other at very high level are, cirno, patchy, sananaes, okuu, and meiling too.

The rest of the caster is fine.

Good morning, soku. I just started playing this today and am getting my shit slapped around even in Story/Arcade mode.

Can someone explain the cards a bit to me? I think that's what I'm having a problem with. The big spell cards that seem to summon attacks or change the weather make sense, but there are too many spell cards that pop up that I use that seem to do nothing at all. Like she'll just hold up a card and flash, or flicker red or something.

>>11435430
You could try looking at the wiki: hisouten.koumakan.jp/
It's a great resource.

>>11435430
There are system, skill and spellcards.
-system are available for everyone and have simple effect like heal or energy regain
-skill can change/upgrade skill attacks (QCFs and so on) every char has its own.
-spells usually use other cards in addition to itself and are hueg attacks.

>>11435434

Thanks. I'll try but my runes are limited.

>>11435482

Aha. I have a feeling that Skill are going to end up being the most important.

Wooo. Finally got it all set up, and connected to my SWR. Do I launch the Soku that comes with the torrent, or just ignore it entirely and grab the one from that link?

What is your name? Mine's profile1p

>>11435503
I recommend sokuroll 1.3 that's what most people use

>>11435525

But do I launch the SokuRoll that comes with the torrent and then update to 1.3 or what?

I'm normally a retarded console user; doing more beyond clicking an .exe is stressful.

>>11435532
I feel very reluctant to help you

>>11435532
You need soku 1.10a if you don't already have it, get sokuroll 1.3 if you don't have it.

Start up soku, click on SokurollLoader, check the bar at the top and see what it says. It should have Japanese text and acR+1.3 or something like that. ᑈ

>>11435537

Thanks. Already got soku 1.10a, so let me launch SokuRoll 1.3 and then give it a shot. I really appreciate it.

>>11435537
>>11435550

Okay, perfect. It's got the acR+1.3.

And the last step is figuring out how to connect to other people!

>>11435555

You'll have to wait for someone to host. If there's no one who posted their IP, you'll just get connection failed (from trying one that's not hosting at the moment)

I miss this game. Got bored with it and deleted it, then wanted to play it again much later and redownloaded it. Could never find anyone who wanted to play, so I deleted it again.

>>11435780
why

>>11435785
Because the CPU is boring to play against, and general unused data clearing.

>>11435789
why do you need 1GB extra free space so badly

>>11435797
I may not have needed it at the time, but I try to keep my hard drive clear of unused clutter, lest it build up to the point where I would need more space. I get what you're trying to say, Anon, but I don't hold on to things that I don't use. Though this thread makes me regret the decision, if only for a passing moment.

>>11435804
you could've just used an undelete utility to get the game back instead of redownloading it

Thanks for the matches, Nene!

I think I did pretty good for my first time. I definitely need to put more than 35 minutes into it though.

>>11435819
Thanks to you!

Sorry for leaving but I had to go to the toilet.

>>11435821

Ah, no problem. I gotta cook dinner anyways.

When we had the Suwako mirror match, I saw you doing the water spit up in the air directly into rings; how do you do that? That seems like it's pretty impotant for playing Suwako.

>>11435823
Not very important actually, it's very unsafe but you could win nearly all of your matches here by just spamming it.

Not posting it because I don't want anyone here to do bully not experimented opponent, but you can analyze it with SWRtoys (http://hisouten.koumakan.jp/wiki/Misc_tools)) or try to find it yourself in practice, very easy to do.

>>11435809
if he deleted it more than a few days ago the data was probably overwritten by something new already.

if he defragments his hard drive, it was probably all lost.

>>11435850
If it's a large hard drive, the majority of the data is still intact. Windows writes to the oldest deleted data first.

If he, say, installed all of his Steam games all at once and filled the drive, then it's lost.

But seriously, just DP, especially with Youmu when you see it coming.

>>11436407
Actually I don't even know why I didn't do it.
I did the C-Version several times even after realising that it doesn't work.

I really like your pressure-game btw, do you also play melty blood?
(not that I want to play you, I suck even more at mb than I do at soku...)

>>11436444
no, tried it but not enough time to spare.

C version doesn't have invulnerability frames.

>>11436444
623B is godly dude, use and abuse it when you know you can get away with it. Use the C-version when you need to smack them through bullets and you absolutely know it's going to hit them.

>>11436450
Also the first hit of it has much slower startup.

Anyone else having problems with weather effects not displaying properly in the newest version of the game? The background changes color but things like hail, wind, snow and rain don't show up.

>>11436721
weather isn't random, it has a cycle

>>11436721
Cards charge so fast that they aren't much of a big deal.

And the fucking weather is 100% manipulable. just learn it and how to control it.

>>11436758
Cards aren't a "huge deal" but they can make or break games, and therefore people don't want to play it on a supercompetitive level.

>>11436758

T-that's pretty hardcore, Anon-kun!

>>11436758
No, the weather is only manipulable to a small extend, if you can manage a groundslam/wallslam or happen to have a weather card on you.
If you're focused on a blockstring (on offense or defense) and suddenly you find yourself being mashed on because Typhoon, which completely changes the game. You can also not defend Youmu's Rise from Delusion, Marisa's Blazing Star and Okuu's Uncontrollable Dive if they get Typhoon.
Same deal with a bad River Mist activation when you're pressuring and get moved away from the opponent, getting instantly guardbroken with 5 spirit because sudden Sunshower, get your best cards removed by Mountain Vapor / Snow or butt-raped because you got knocked down by a pressure-heavy character like Sakuya or Reisen.

GGs werty

>>11436786
In Diamond Dust, I meant, which blocks your ability to roll on the ground. Just watch this shit:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFUytu2F9bY&t=1m2s

>>11436786
Any spellcard activation advance the weather for a cycle.

And you can adapt your combo to get as much slams as you want, or even get purposly hit by a long ranged bullet to avoid a typhoon.

Or the opposite, force it to piss off your opponent because he's not paying attention.

>>11436732
Rehosting.

>>11436797
That's still very limited control, if you have to be comboing someone or waste spellcards / take hits, and only C bullets knock down. And virtually no combos contain multiple wallslams.
I'll still take weather over HM popularity system, especially with the utter crap that Last Words are.

>>11436821
getting hit in the air by a light bullet leads to a knock down.

"And virtually no combos contain multiple wallslams."

The fuck? almost every character can have at least 2 slams in a combo w/o SC usage.

Hell, with tenshi you can go as wish from 0 to 4, without losing too much damage for a combo.

>>11436834
Give me that Tenshi combo then, because four seems like a stretch. I concede on the wallslam point if you mean Dial-A > 6A, which does cause two wallslams indeed. Not really optimal in case of many characters, though, and you still need to connect corner combo in order to switch the weather.

>>11436834
And not all B bullets knock down from air either, see Sakuya or Reisen. Of course said opponent would propably want to get the fuck away from the opponent to preserve current weather to begin with.

>struggle your fucking ass off all match
>get close to killing your opponent
>opponent does all of that damage back to you in about ten seconds

>>11437829
I didn't feel it to be much fair so I wanted to take some free hits, but I ended up taking much more damage than I wanted. So I didn't throw the match, it was fair and square.
if you want a tip,You can use suwakos special moves underground, all of them.
Also don't fly when the suns up, you'll burn your life meter like on the one match.

>>11437857

Ahh, that makes sense. Thanks!

I also see you summoning the tree while you're in mid-air, how do you do that?

>>11437834

D00d suwanerd is actually pretty deadly in good hands. Her corner pressure is kurayzee and she can zone insanely well between her Tree of Fuck You and her Pool/Cloud of Curse You and her Water of Push You and her Kicks of Atatata You and her Underground I Crossup You and all kinds of stuff!

I bet she has all kinds of other shenanigans but I can't remember them

>>11437882
Yeah, Suwako can be competitive, it's just usually uninteresting when she's played properly. A lot of people turn into j8A j6B j6C repeat Suwakos which usually aren't too strong and aren't interesting to beat.
People who screw around with block strings are fun though.

>>11437860
Hold Up then hold attack when you are flying.
you have to time because youll keep moving and falling while doing it.

>>11437882
And here you can see what kind of people Suwako players are based on the content and the way they write.

And it really kept pissing me off how I kept stupidly falling for the same things over and over. I just can't learn.

Don't worry, you weren't. I can tell you have experience with other fighting games, so your spacing and movement kept me engaged.

I'm bad at everything in this game, /jp/. Please help. Practicing hasn't helped either because I can barely do anything against other people, they're too fast for me and I can never find any space to breathe. Fighting the CPU is useless as well because it can't keep any pressure at all.

Speaking of the CPU, holy hell how did they manage to make it even worse in HM?

>>11439227
Start to learn some combos, the rest goes smoothly if you practice.

for those interested in practicing against non-human opponents, i have a link for you

http://www.mediafire.com/download/a3d09t3tcn1lx61/1.10a_SokuAI.rar

contained herein is a program for greatly enhancing the soku ai. it's good practice and will help you to learn what is and isn't safe to do. keep in mind that a fair deal of these ai's are pretty unforgiving(i usually lose to the reimu/remilia ai's).

to use, open aimanager.exe(running as administrator may or may not help, not sure; if you get problems, try it), and select the character AI you want to load(use aimanager.png for reference). 'twill then ask you for your soku executable's location(jp version only, unfortunately; hope you know your way around).

after it boots, go to vs player, and select your character, then the character whose ai script you loaded for player 2. sometimes, you may have to do a little trial and error to get it working properly. i once had problems involving profiles; and sometimes the AI simply doesn't work(you can tell because the console window will grab your attention and tell you something about PANIC);but most of the time it works fine.

hope this helps some of you out there. also remember that the wiki is a useful source of information.
