DAVE you're actin like a little kid on his way to Disneyland for the first time with this DR thing, lol. But good shit though. I'll see you soon in DR. Just hope my Xiayou is up to par.

since when was playing online perfect? lol

glad your enjoying it dave

i dont know how other tekken players feel, but id seriously just wait for T6, lol. shit looks way too good compared to T5.

later

No thanks... come the end of october I'll be playing Virtua Fighter 5 online And since some of my people are here i may as well just say it... I dont plan on getting a ps3, like, at all

Oh damn..

That sucks to hear, Jay. I was really hoping to see you around for MK8. But hey, noone can blame you... I'll bet VF5 is gonna kick ass.

Seems like they would release a patch for online play on PS3

Shit, Tekken DR sounds tight online. I love the idea of recreating the arcade feel online.

not to be mean or anything, but can you tell me what these mean? I never saw Tekken commands in text before.

VF5 online? are you for real? is this confirmed yet?
but uhh, how do you want to play it online at all, without a ps3?

VF5 is coming to XBOX 360. It has online enabled also.

and also to PS3 right? with online play? if so, then I'm gonna buy a ps3 very very soon!

Does anyone know where i can find some kinda tekken guide with out buying it lol, theirs alot of little things im clueless on.. low parries(what ever their called) alot of the recoveries and other crap! Game is fun.. had a few laggy matches now but definatly a good buy!

1, 2, 3, and 4 are exactly the same as in MKA. 1 means Square, 2 means Triangle, 3 means X/Cross, and 4 means Circle. anything with a slash in-between means two directions at the same time. N means neutral.


I believe GameFAQs is a very good spot to learn the terms and different tricks of Tekken. I went there to learn Jin for T5 Original. I'm sure they have stuff for TDR by now. Oh, and low parries are done by pressing d/f while you're being attacked with a low attack.

Oh ty, I knew what the numbers were, just not the slashes, thanks alot.

See SDTekken.com for frame data on Tekken 5: DR.

http://sdtekken.com/t5dr/frame-data/

Basic knowledge:

Basic jab = 1

- Some characters have an 8 frame jab while certain characters have 10 frame jabs. Ganryu is the only character with a 12 frame jab (even though his b+1+2 headbutt attack is 10 frames fast).

What does this all mean? It means, if an attack recovers at -8 (there are very few of them), 8 frame jabbers can punish it but NOT 10 frame jabbers. If an attack recovers at -10, both 8 and 10 frame jabbers can punish it. Keep in mind, though, that this is only when the jabs can reach your opponent. Steve's d/f+1+2 is -13 when blocked but no jab can reach it because d/f+1+2 pushes your opponent away from jab range. You'll need to punish it differently.

Let's say you block Jin's WS+2 (which is -12 when blocked), and you play with Kazuya. Kazuya can punish it with 1,1,2 or 1+2. Kazuya's 1,1,2 is 10 frames fast (because of the starting "1") and 1+2 is 12 frames fast.

Other generic information (these do not apply for all characters):

2 = 10 frames

d/f+1 = 13 frames

d+4 = 13 frames (-13 when blocked)

WS+4 = 11 frames

Hopefully, this will give you an idea of how Tekken works (off-line at least).

PS: Mr. S is an X-Box fanboy XD.

If you have played zbattle online with 1 latency in the same country then there is NO lag, I am still amazed by it today, there seriously needs to be other games like this, I don't know how they do it.
It is probably ZSNES itself.

Well until I get my PS3 which may take some time, unless I get it for my birthday gift this month! By the way i will be brushing up on my old tekken skills up at the arcade in Hickory Hollow mall today and I'm going whoop some peoples arse! yes Tekken five arcade style for now.. So until then i may get Tekken DR online or tekken 6 if it comes out when I get my ps3 cause I know Ps3 are so damn expensive! sheesh lower on the dang prices ppl! LMAO sad I know better the graphics higher they jack the prices.. its like Sega genesis when it first came out at the mall of Sears it was a thousand dollars... and yes I got it for a thousand dollars..

^^^Your birthday is in September? Mine too!

Oh yeah? i bet you I'm older though Other than that yes Sept 17th is my birthday and my oldest sons too! Dang just turning 23 is gonna be a sign that I'm getting in the old ages soon! eeep!

So yeah where my freaking gifts ppl? jk jk. Although.. spending ten dollars on warm ups on tekken 4 hmm I should have went to the mall for tekken 5 on ten dollars. Bleh oh well I had fun I had some watchers too. Man.. Nina a hoochie on tekken 4 though made her kick my arse was hard push a start juggle on her in that higher rank level she whooped all my chars really I bet you she beat Anna as the tekken 4 nina though. Well thats my opinion.

Cool. Mine's actually this coming Saturday. Virgo's kick ass!

Aww happy birthday Naky!!! Yeah Virgos are such creative people.. and known for so much stuff its not even funny. So yeah that explains me well.

^Sagis all the way foos.

ps, I played Tekken 5 with my buddy on his PS2 thick last night, and OMG, now I see what all the fuss is about.
me and him didn't know shit about the game and we pulled some of the craziest moves that no MK game can ever dream of animating.
I am definetly gonna get into T5 and learn the combos and shit and get myself ready for T6 and a brand new PS3 next year.

ok im on the line on what i should do. do i buy the game this tuesday or wait till oct 5th.

couple questions

1 ~ are you able to play just 1 person as many times as you like? or are you just able to play one game and if you lose you have to wait for your turn to come up again.

i hope its not like that always cause that would piss me off. i like the idea for like when theres a bunch of guys i know on and we can all have fun playing and shit. how ever id like to play one guys often like in MKD-MKA so that i can actually get good. i dont like the idea of having to wait to play some one.

2 ~ are there lots of players online? if yes whats teh average number if there is one. im just curious.

question for Synik ~ when i get the PS3 im getting MK2. do yo play often? also are ther tons of people that play it? i pray there is as this is my fav fighting game.

Dan, it's hard to tell how many people play because there are no general rooms like in MK:D / MK:A online. Besides, when certain rooms get full, they disappear from your screen. My guess is about 100-200 right now, though. Maybe more.

You can play the same person over and over again. For example, if I create a room and invite you (and set the maximum user amount at 2 players for the room), we can play over and over again. That's how Jade-OWN and I did it the other day. You can also kick out players from your room, set number of rounds, time limit, voice chatting, etc. Every character can be picked except Jinpachi, by the way.

I've never played MK:A on X-Box but I believe it is kind of similar to it.

I also suggest playing people who live on your coast only. East Vs. West is extremely laggy (similar to MK:A). Game plays good online but it's fairly noticable that it lags even among the best connections. Juggles are a lot harder to do, and sometimes you have to resort to the simplest combos. To get gameplay most similar to off-line, only play people with green bars (which will be people who live on your coast).

Okay just curious can you use Keyboard and headset in your created room like you use in MKD and MKA lobby instead those twogames you had to use damn controller to type stuff.. Plus don't tell me there is scrubs on that game lol

no xbox online isnt like that. it actually sounds good thanks for the info. ill let you know as soon as i get it. again it'll be some time between now and oct 5th.

Sorry I should've mentioned Virtua Fighter 5 is online for 360.
Ha! I never would've even bought an xbox had my ps2 not crapped out. I tore that shit apart, got it working, and bought a freaking $60 modem to trash ya schmucks on mkd. I dont care how cheesy it sounds, I play for the games... and you fools obviously

Hey, anybody up for Madden-08 on 360 add me or message me

peace

Oh btw RJ, sorry man my xarcade has been screwy with sticky button syndrome. The pushing too many keyboard buttons causes it to auto-fire sticky, not the oh shit i missed the cup accidentally jizzin all over the damn thing kinda sticky. I try to roll buttons and it's all over
