am i the only one to remember that we were like 1000 users back then and that about 500 of them were HADOKEN HAPPY THROWERS ?

Everyone is a hadouken happy thrower, but those(we) people had other stratgies than that.

can't you just say that it didn't change from then and now ?
do you really see the difference that much ?
i sure don't see any difference except that in that time we were about 1000 while today we are 200000 more then before ! that's a lot of people you know, the difference is enormous. yet, the hadoken throwers didn't change from back then. half of use today is doing that stupidity thinking its the only to win a fight ! half of the 1000 back then had the same mind ! the only thing that makes you think there are more now a days, is that number of people ! since there is way more people then back then, you seem to have seen the problem getting bigger ! which it hasn't !

those i fight now a days, are less hadoken throwers then anyone i have fought back then !
its all a about how you see it !

and am i the only to remember that lag was 10x times stronger then it is now ?

I'm not sure about that... game specs, yeah, I guess, but IMO, the lag is stronger now than back then.

can't say cause your stats doesn't mean anything to me !
never liked tiers (don't need to explain why)

all i'm gonna say is... from day one, i'm probably one of the few that even thou i have changed computers, i still had the very same OLD PHONE MODEM that is a stupid 33,600bps ! that's really old you know !

so i say that if players like myself that played all the time with that kind of modem have really really seen a very very big difference in lag ! hell, for once i had recently a real match with a ping under 100 at all time ! which back then i couldn't even have a fight under 3000 !

if that means lag is worst then how come the opponent never really teleported for the whole match ?
this adding to the fact that TMYAPP as one of the worst modem ever to play with his very own game !
if he says there is really a difference in lag and that it is a lot lesser then it was, then i'm gonna say that is must be true !

i was playing back in september 2001, the first thing i knew, i was beaten up by people that only did hadokens all over the place while disappearing from one side to the other and before i had to turn around the already were appearing in the next side of the screen !

There was a technique called super jumping... you could do it a billion times... use it!

[sarcasm]REALLY ![/sarcasm]
sorry, but i knew that game quite some times even before i was playing this online game, but if i knew, i was sure that others were too, that's why most of the people were super jumping all the time blasting thru the air at all time !

the lag was the biggest monster ever in this game back then.
cause of it you couldn't block, you couldn't know where everything was coming from, you couldn't tell what was your energy level, you couldn't prevent anything ! you had to ANTICIPATE what your ennemy would do, which is impossible since when you fight 1000 people for the first time, you don't even stand a chance because you don't know them !

why did you think HELPERS were asked in the first place, cause nothing could be donme to avoid a super since when it appeared it was already over ! now we don't have that problem anymore, the SYNC SUPER option is there to fix that problem !

the super jump lock was added because there was actually too many players that were super jumping all the times adding in lag a lot ! (thou i doubt it, never really seen a difference in lag if i super jumped) anyway... if that lock was in, it was because mainly all the users were using the super jump ! so why was it a great escape move if everyone was super jumping all the time ?

I don't knwo where you got 1:25 from, but you're way off! Have you seen Cyclops? Spider Man? Wolverine? and of course Ryu/Evil Ryu? Repetitive move, repetitive move, repetitive move, super, repeat, thats how ALMOST every game goes now adays. There was more hand to hand combat back then than now, and some helpers were actually useful before they got screwed (Spiral, Guile).

forget about the 1:25 ratio, it was meaning 1 fight out of 25 is actually good !
characters aren't cheap, the users are, if the users are over using those moves, then it is your job to find a way to block and keep close to em ! if i can do that easily, i guess you can too !

as for the helpers, yeah i agree, guile was faster back then, now it just takes forever to come out. spiral was kind of good when it first came out, but now she's almost helpless, and i also remember the sentinel (damn your red one) it was pretty good as ANTI-AIR move ! but its back then ! can't live with that #### in my head ! you gotta let it go sometimes !

I assume you mean october Fear, he was a ####ie back then, he was learning, he has gotten much much better, and I tell you that he doesnt throw hadoukens all the time, or he wouldn't have won ToC3.

never fought him back then and i never fought him today...
one quetion... if he is that good and fight more close range, then why is he claiming that hadokens are the only way to beat someone in this game ?
