Suika's cuteness is extraordinary.

Anybody wanna try SWR against a California fag?

66.215.55.98

>>57019
Ahahahah, clearly I don't. Hope that was a decent warmup for you.

Well, both of you can read up at http://iamp.mizuumi.net/index.php/Main_Page in the meantime.

Well that was fun, albeit a big laggy.

Anybody else wish to play the SWR with me?

66.215.55.98 (California)

>>57683
I need to learn to play having watched alot of Meiling combo movies I can only perform one.

<---- Also.

GG Garlic Wall. I've had enough for now, gonna take a nap.

More people need to play SWR with me, except it's only a demo with four playable characters. Stupid Tasogare, hurry up and release SWR.

There some people who clearly played this game for a long long time!

Okay, so I haven't actually tried this one out, and now I want to. Is it translated?

Thanks though.

I'm not sure if there is an existing English patch, but you can get a torrent for Touhou Suimusou off Isohunt.com. After that just read http://iamp.mizuumi.net/index.php/Main_Page for more stuffs on netplay and character unlocks.

>>55854
I'm back, still hosting as 71.162.131.216.

Gah something wrong with my host, whoever that connected to me, can you try hosting?

Lol, I figured out what was wrong. I had to switch back to JP caster instead of CowCaster.

No idea how this plays.

I am good at Samurai Shodown, and Marvel vs Capcom.

>>56442
Yay for spectate option.

Suika is just too fun to play.

C'mon, China! Don't lose to that half-ghost

Forgot to add I'm a Eurofag. Try hosting it. We'll see how it is on your end.

>>56835
Alright, 71.162.131.216

>>55829
Upload is irrelevant to hosting. Once you connect, all lag is bidirectional, so both users get the same amount of load. But that's not a big deal, since Caster uses a small enough amount of bandwidth that you actually can play on a modem.

>>56835
Try forwarding UDP 7500 port in your router, I think my upload is pretty bad :/

It's still crap. Damnit ;__;

Anyone up for some SWR?

84.65.116.40 EU.

>>56852
Lol I'm gonna reset my net brb.

Slow motion matches are the shit!

>>56877
back, same IP still :<. I never had that much lag in the games before.

Guess the Atlantic Ocean does makes a difference.

>>56901
Now all I'm getting are timeouts. Curse you Earth why must you be so large.

A constant sub-60fps usually means someone set the delay value too low.

If you're using CowCaster it should recommend a useable delay value.

This is pretty hilarious to watch.

Lol was that the same Meirin?

Damn you anonymous!
Damn you and your juggling combos!

Isn't it so sad, Alice...

So, how about some play from someone who actually knows how to?

Hosting at 64.91.113.5 from west coast USA.

>>57015
Anonymous does not forgi... Ah, whatever.
Good games.

>>57022
You too, even though I probably wasn't much of a fight. Still I can't believe I lost to Meirin and her sort-of-working frame traps. I need to bomb more to get out of those situations.

>>56955

Oh whoops, I accidently exited after four matches.

Someone please come back. ;_;

>>56955
Good games.

At least I don't get beaten as badly in SWR than I do in IaMP.

>>57041
That's because there's no one, and I mean NO ONE, in the English speaking community who actually bothers to play the game correctly, since the game just kind of breaks down pretty fast beyond basic levels of skill.

That was pretty fast.

China kicked my ass.

I don't understand the combo system in this game at all or how to use any spellcards except the first one

>>57130
Look on the bright side: You know more than me. My download is currently at 90%

Doesn't that make you feel better?

Lol Meirin's combos make me cry :(

Isn't there an patch to update the game?? Where can I get it?

>>57145
My download is at 77% ;_;

>>57197

http://www.tasofro.net/touhou/download.html

what do people normally play IaMP with. Controllers or Keyboard?

I can't even beat the computer without spamming the same move over and over.

Good matches. Won by luck but hell it was a lot of fun.

>>57211
Keyboard for me.

Before I start it up, do you need a patch for netplay, or is the feature included?

>>57255
Lol yea I came close, but couldn't win still with any characters.

You must play on Meiling a lot.

If you're planning to play you'll need this also.

>>57145
Too bad you can't play as Cirno in this game. :<

>>57280
He would be THE STRONGEST then.

There is a Cirno recolor somewhere in the most recent Cowcaster, but I haven't played around with color settings much.

>>57282
My hand is numb from that beating; play someone so I can watch, China. ;D

>>57039
Again, good games.

I'm showing some sign of improvement, I think I'll go mess around with my spellcard deck.

I'm up for some PoFV, since I've yet to play that online yet.

Hokay, that's enough for me, heh, to whoever Anonymous was. The lag was getting pretty bad there that last match. (Ate my 22a at the end of the second round! baaaah)

Not bad, though. Don't fall for a lot of tricks that new players fall into.

>>57354
Yeah, this is my 4th or so time playing a real human, so I'm not quite used to human strategies and whatnot. Good games, though. I've learned a good bit.

>>57371
Extract the exe files to Suimusou directory and run.

83.27.127.12 Hosting (EU)!

>>57380
thanks

>>57369
Definitely not bad at all then, if you're that new.

You might try some of the #iamp crew if you're looking for some competition. There's quite a wide variety of players there.

>>57211
Controller here.

Reimu Column is so bad it's funny. I like how it can be punished even if airblocked.

Orb is pretty much the only real choice for her first level spellcard since it combos off of quite literally everything except 5a and is not punishable.

YKT.

how does I connect

The only people who will tell you this are people who are either not experienced with fighters or are not experienced with SFA3. But since this comes up A LOT, I may as well describe the reasoning behind it. SFIII3 has a lot more casual appeal. It's a lot easier to 'pick up and play', overall. But it dumbs down the game to do it. Let's refer to a tourney finals match, from one of the two SFIII3 tourneys, here to make the point.

(insert Youtube link here)

On the surface, it looks pretty good. There appears to be mindgames going on, there appears to be some fairly intricate movement. But this is mostly a joke. If you look carefuly, you'll see that the game basically devolves to:

- Dash around like crazy until someone blocks something.
- The one that landed the blocked blow does a strong pressure string, that is very difficult to escape.
- Pressure string ends with either a good read and a border escape(-1 super temporarily, jump straight up, can be punished if read) or when the offender's super bar gets low.
- In Ken's case, his stuff can be backdashed midscreen, so he's at a disadvantage in this case. Doesn't matter since it's Uehara playing there, and he's a living god of mindreading, but hey. Chun Li's, obviously, are a lot tighter and harder to get out of.

The mindgame essentially becomes "maybe it's better to get hit by this than it is to block it," because pressure is very strong when it does land and much harder to get out of. Does this sound good to you?

Essentially, SFIII3 is a very shallow game that doesn't work very well beyond casual/basic levels of play, and you'll be hard-pressed to find a skilled fighting game player who will tell you to do anything but avoid it in its current state.

>>57570
For IaMP or SWR, run Caster and then #2 on the menu connects to another player. #3 to watch(you might get disconnected occasionally, don't worry about it), #1 to host.

>>57670
So moe I died when you crouched.

Lol Yuyuko moves so slow, such a fatty.

>>57679
Lol I love how my matches with you are supper close in the end, especially on Raymoo and Youmoo >.>

>>57670
Yuyuko actually has the fastest ground dash in the game if you restart the dash over and over rather than just hold it, and her horizontal movement in the air is on par with everyone else's. She's just... Really, really, really floaty. Since she works best closer to the ground this is a problem.

A common tactic when someone's sufficiently afraid of you is 5a 5a dash 5a 5a... etc. 5a is advantageous on block, so if you time it right the opponent won't be able to do crap other than shit stars out.

>>57691
Meiling's combos seems fun and easy, but I always get caught in them.

Also I abused Raymoo's cheat warp alot if you haven't noticed lol. Probably my best char up to date.

>>57691
it was amusing for the first three times. Stop it.

>>57361

Albeit slow, good game. I had to make do with another netplay patch since I can't get the supposedly better one to work.

>>57706
Eh, I know I suck.

Good game.

>>57706
SRW being a demo so far is what keeping me from playing. Although a flying Raymoo is tempting.

Hi. I can't play IaMP, and you would probably just beat me into the Gensoukyou dirt anyway, so is anyone interested in playing SWR? I'm a Reimufag.

Also, you'll have to host, as I haven't gone through the trouble of figuring out how to unblock my ports.

OP here, GG Alice, I'm the guy that always use Raymoo, Youmu and Suika btw ;D

I wasn't kidding about the clueless Yuyuko part. For some reason I was hell bent on getting advantage on those air slams.

IaMP is like the exact opposite of a button masher. Everything you do's gotta have a purpose and you've gotta plan ahead, otherwise, you'll be flying around and shitting stars all over the place.

It's pretty neat that way, though it can be stressful at higher level play.

If I had any confidence in myself I'd join

But I havent played it in ages and I sucked back then too

ggs.

Btw, try putting in the suggested input delay next time. 2 delay works up to 64ms at 60fps(due to spikes it shouldnt be used past 50ms)

OP here, didn't think this thread would last so long. Great that it's still is alive.

I play Sakuya and China really shittily. :D

76.188.105.98 hosting swr

lol those were fun matches, somebody

oh man, I suck at this game

I notice a lot of you seem to be having problems with frame rate being under 60fps. If you're not running anything in the background to clog up the Internet, and your computers have no effects lag, then _YOU SET THE DELAY VALUE TOO LOW._ CowCaster will recommend a probably workable delay automatically when you connect, just press enter to use it, though plain old th075Caster won't.(there's a lot of reasons to use cow variant other than that, too, like custom color palettes and such.)

http://mauve.sandwich.net/iamp/CowCaster-080107.zip

For people too lazy to get a different client that is more suited to the task, there's a chart of ms -> delay values on the wiki: http://iamp.mizuumi.net/index.php/Netplay#Hosting

Mainly Alice with a DURRRR Yuyuko for shits.

I've learned a valuable lesson today.

Ray moo.

Don't pursue.

>>60101
Reimu's all about locking down the opponent so they can't do what they want. She actually has pretty crap damage.

j.a gives her a pretty big advantage in the air, though, so it's not really a good idea to hit her head on. Yuyu's j.a is technically longer range, but the problem is that it comes out very slowly so you have to do it ahead of time. Meaning if you time it wrong, the opponent is too far behind / too close and you get whomped. Need to use Yuyu's 236 projectiles as cover so that the opponent will get interrupted if they try to just shoe you in the face for it.

71.162.131.216 If anyone wants some quick match against my Raymoo before I leave.

Whoever that just challenged me, I'm still up, but you set the right delay value so the game don't lag.

Well OP here, I'm out.

GG Everyone!

Goddam do I suck at this game.

to whoever challenged me, it was laggy as hell

so far, aya. we don't know what other char we're gonna get

No Cirno and no Reisen = instant fail.

Wait, is only the demo of SWR available?

>>61548
The only people who will tell you this are people who are either not experienced with fighters or are not experienced with IaMP. But since this comes up A LOT, I may as well describe the reasoning behind it. SWR has a lot more casual appeal. It's a lot easier to 'pick up and play', overall. But it dumbs down the game to do it.

>>61619
this is gonna turn into a giant copypasta with a bunch of other fighting games soon...

but swr is fun

thats all that matters

I'm only interested in SWR because IaMP runs slow on my computer for some reason.

>>61614
Yes, there's only a demo out, and there's only four characters in it. Reimu, Marisa, Alice, and Aya.

As the guy who programmed SWRCaster, I can tell you a few things, though. There's 20 character profile slots in the game's internal data, rather than just the 4 for the demo. This could mean that there will be 20 in the final. It could also mean nothing at all. We don't know. But it's worth noting.

>>61642

You can use it for shooters, too.

>>61661
For a game to be successful in the long term, you need the support of both the casual players and the serious players. Just one or the other doesn't keep lasting appeal going.

SWR might be fun, but will it attract 150-man tournaments in Japan and a thriving community? That's another story. There's shitloads of doujin fighters that died quiet deaths because they didn't hold up on one end or another.

that aside, still hosting

i dont care if its successful or not, i just want it to be fun

fuck, battlefield 1942 demo is the best game out there and it only has 1 stage

>>61619

You're not allowed to use a video discussing game mechanics that includes Tamapo. He's...kinda freaky.

>>61717
his handshake's a bit weak for his gaming powers

>>61724

Ya see, he never touches his controller. It's all just static charges from his thumbs shot directly from his (and anyone within 30 feet)'s brain.

>>61745
so him and ken are the same species?

>>61754

They prefer the term "Race".

>>61722
The only people who will tell you this are people who are either not experienced with fighters or are not experienced with GGAC. But since this comes up A LOT, I may as well describe the reasoning behind it. SF3 has a lot more casual appeal. It's a lot easier to 'pick up and play', overall. But it dumbs down the game to do it. Let's refer to a tourney finals match, from a SF3 tourney, here to make the point.

On the surface, it looks pretty good. There appears to be mindgames going on, there appears to be some fairly intricate movement. But this is mostly a joke. If you look carefuly, you'll see that the game basically devolves to:

- Move left and right like crazy until someone whiffs something.
- Throw out a super.
- Rely on muscle memory instead of actual skill.

The mindgame essentially becomes "maybe it's better to get hit by this than it is to block it," because pressure is very strong when it does land and much harder to get out of. Does this sound good to you?

Essentially, SF3 is a very shallow game that doesn't work very well beyond casual/basic levels of play, and you'll be hard-pressed to find a skilled fighting game player who will tell you to do anything but avoid it in its current state.

iamp is muscle memory for combos and knowing when to use them, thats it

seriously

yeah youmu's combos are like... split into 20 different places depending on situation

The only people who will tell you this are people who are not experienced with roguelikes. But since this comes up A LOT, I may as well describe the reasoning behind it. Angband has a lot more casual appeal. It's a lot easier to 'pick up and play', overall. But it dumbs down the game to do it. Let's refer to a tourney finals match, from one of the two Angband tourneys, here to make the point.

On the surface, it looks pretty good. There appears to be mindgames going on, there appears to be some fairly intricate movement. But this is mostly a joke. If you look carefuly, you'll see that the game basically devolves to:

- Reenter the same level again and again until a player "has a good feeling."
- Once someone gets 32 levels down they farm for +ability potions for six hours.
- As soon as something truly challenging comes up, the player flees immediately. All risk is avoided.
- In a Wizards case, his stuff can be identified immediately, so he's at an extreme advantage. Doesn't matter since it's Saruman playing there, and he's a living god of autoidentifying, but hey. Fighters, obviously, have a lot less variety and harder to succeed with.

The mindgame essentially becomes "maybe it's better to flee than take a single minor risk," because pressure is very strong when you don't have [foo] needed resistance. Does this sound fun to you?

What the fuck are you talking about.
Google Kawaks.

>>61926
...you do know there are multiple arcade emulators with online capabilities that run 02, right?

>>61947
can you play KOF 02 or XI with that one?

Woohoo, I spawned copypasta. Well, serves me right for trying to explain what's wrong with the game, anyway, haha.

>>61953
And GGPO runs kof98 with better lag handling. So hey.

>>61967
Any NeoGeo or CPS1/2 roms that MAME can run, Kawaks can run.

>>62029
Is there any server for it or is it for hosting a game with a friend?

>>62053
Uses the Kaillera client for netplay. In other words, it uses a server list.

Casual here, can you tell me how

>Dash around like crazy until someone blocks something.
>The one that landed the blocked blow does a strong pressure string, that is very difficult to escape.
>Pressure string ends with either a good read and a border escape(-1 orb temporarily, jump straight up, can be punished if read) or when the offender's orbs get low.

is any different from IaMP? I'll admit that I'm pretty new to fighters, and that IaMP and SWR are two different games, but the strategy essentially seems the same to me.

>muscle memory for combos and knowing when to use them

Timeout.

things swr did right:

1) orb system to tell you exactly how much something was
2) can't self-drain your spirit bar
3) made spellcards more relevant to gameplay

things swr did wrong:

1) weather system was useless
2) card system was a bad way to implement multiple spellcards
3) both weather and card system relied on randomness, and random = bad
4) swr forced you to use doubletap and the d button instead of allowing you to use one or the other like iamp did
5) the multiple applications of bomb are gone and replaced with border escape, a single specific tool for a specific situation
6) guard crushing someone was a goal in iamp and meant more implied damage (but you still had to work for it). in swr it is guaranteed damage since the next hit after gc is unblockable, so if you burn a lv5 spellcard from your guard crush, guess what, lolz u can't block it, gg
7) other minor shit in the demo that were issues but nothing that couldn't have been patched up: alice's hitboxes are all wrong, alice doesn't have her full moveset, reimu has a weird infinite, aya is overpowered, backgrounds are fucking ugly

Still no.

I can't, use relay. (Option 7 on cowcaster)

Very, very different.

From a pressure string standpoint... IaMP has longer pressure but many more opportunities to get out of them: Basically just about everything has a gap and everything is a trap, it's all about learning how to think around your opponent. SWR's strings are more specific and have fewer holes, and the ways to get out of the strings are set at specific intervals, and the pressure always ends after a set period of time. Simplified, less mindgamey, more RPSy.

From a spatial control standpoint: Spatial coverage is also much more limited in SWR, due to how the projectile system changed, so it's harder to control space without actually being in it. Everything's faster, so there are fewer traps/fake traps and more poking. You end up with simple traps like, oh, Aya j.b j.214a making up much of the game. (Watch tourney matches, no one smart even tries to graze that shit.) Again, simplified, more RPSy, less thinking ahead involved.

On the combo thing.. You can tell the amount of skill someone has at fighting games by how much emphasis they put on combos. Combos are tactics, rather than a strategy. LANDING the combos in the first place is a strategy. SWR you get one for free off of pretty much anything you land because of the exaggerated wallslam and groundslam physics. In IaMP, everything is situational and you have to fight for the positioning for them, and the opponent will know this and fight against them. (On a side note, Marisa in SWR has a 50/50 j.2a crossup groundslam mixup into Blazing Star. Yes, the one that does a shitload of damage. And it's a stupid easy hitconfirm.)

It's a difference in the amount of depth - If you don't sit down and look at it, it's not obvious, but it's there.

>>62620
Is it worth spending weeks practicing IaMP before you get good at it? I only played like 3 matches and I still didn't know what the hell I was doing.

Still timeout. Use option 7, then press enter. We can connect that way.

Its the timeout of doooooom. (on 7, bleargh)

>>62645
's up to you. It's a good game, very solid, very balanced compared to most fighters(Only Patch and Meiling are genuinely disadvantaged, but everyone has a decent shot at winning), lots of mindgaming going on.

There's a tutorial video in the works, which should help things, maybe within a month or so it'll be out. For the most part we recommend reading the basics guide on the front page of the wiki and playing the story mode through to get the hang of movement/grazing, once you can do that you're good to go to try some humans. #iamp always welcomes fresh meat^Wplayers.

>>62679

Im practicing all the night.
