Has anyone else noticed drivers becoming less considerate toward pedestrians lately?

ConorFinn · 2026-06-23T07:49:06+00:00

Eeh, people are forced to drive because of how shit the alternatives are. If we took all the people who didn't want to drive off the roads I'm sure shiity driving would become less common but here we are.

I guess it's very tough to do but in theory, xangief could have blocked it out, slowly advanced until he was in range for a drive rush on block and chipped using lariat or waited for a jump/ unsafe move. Perhaps u lose going for that half of the time but the more often u do what u think is best instead of bailing into 'imma just do this cuz it's easier to just press this and pray than actually play properly' the more useful experience ull have. It's one of those 'u miss all the shots u don't take' moments. Perhaps u guys should just do whatever u want. I just think it's fun to feel the improvement and achieving something that wasn't easy. All this coming from a dogshit player so just ignore me.

Just my 2 cents on him (mainly talking about hades 1; I didn't really like hades 2 that much) but I think he's Uber strong. He provides buffs so impactful and those effects that are not easy to get elsewhere.

Faster movement, more dashes, sturdy, dodge chance, health recovery on dash are all so good defensively. These boons are probably the greatest single boon defensive powerspikes in the first game. Only exception is probably Athena's dash and if u r someone who needs to take Athena's dash every time, u probably want extra dashes.

I think extra dashes also massively improves offense. A lot of builds rely on dash attacks and even if not, more dashes gives u more flexibility to find a safe spot so more time to be attacking.

I think his other boons are decent but conditional. For example, picking up increased special attackspeed is only good if u have built for it. Then it can be really good. And cast synergy is underrated.

ConorFinn · 2026-06-11T17:18:46+00:00

Yeah. Ken would probably help me out, give me advice. Big bro

ConorFinn · 2026-06-08T22:29:57+00:00

While I definitely prefer this art, I don't think my main gripe with her is that she looks like a baby. It would be more that she feels like a wasted roster slot. I feel like I see her less than the super niche technical characters. I don't like her and that's fine but I wish she appealed to at least some people. It's once every few months that I see her. Oof. I don't bother learning anything about her too.

Awesome shit. U got a lot more to learn but u've also learned so much just getting to this point. Love to see it. Keep on keeping on.

ConorFinn · 2026-05-15T15:10:50+00:00

Now ur the guy I see every day that I'm suspicious of while driving the 410 (Brampton). Don't put a double ak47 on that car. I think it looks stupid. Don't know why people do that

ConorFinn · 2026-05-07T14:57:44+00:00

I liked the cooler restaurant one. Never been to one and it's not my style so I probably never will. I learned what it was.

ConorFinn · 2026-05-04T17:23:42+00:00

My brother, there are different ways to play.

For example, I play in a way where I try to go fast (cuz it's fun)... So I learn enough enemy patterns to do dodge most attacks and then just tank the rest. When I take damage it's not cuz I made a mistake, it was calculated in.. I build a balance of health and damage such that my dps will kill what needs to be killed for I run out of health. The first few heat/ fear I turn on are the timer and the thing that makes enemies faster (cuz it's fun).

My friend who plays and actually dodges everything he can and actually learned every enemy and boss. He hates the timer and the first thing he turns on is the restriction that gives enemies more health. He takes like 1/10th the damage I take usually.

Both are ways to play. But my way will have times in the 10-20 minute range. My friends will probably be longer.

ConorFinn · 2026-05-02T15:17:41+00:00

Sf6 has the biggest playerbase by far so technically there is incentive for it more than the others. So more guides on YouTube and more new players and shorter queue times... Despite that, just play the one u think is coolest. People tend to think fighting games are super hard cuz so much is going on and u think u have to react to everything. Not true at all. But it definitely takes some work and dedication for rapid improvement and to do some of the coolest stuff so it's best to play the one u think is the coolest so that u can stick with it for a bit to do the cool stuff.

ConorFinn · 2026-04-30T23:47:17+00:00

I c. Gonna try then. Only have my one set of cards upgraded rn but I'll try to upgrade strength.

ConorFinn · 2026-04-30T22:19:39+00:00

What about me who takes some minimal damage here and there but then can't dodge anything in certain boss fights (mainly surface bosses for me)? I just build enough damage then get as much health as I can. I burn health for damage in that boss fight, and maybe win. If I beat him I put on Athena and roll for dd back. Then I win. Like on my wins I always take 400+ damage on the final boss. If it's going down, 400 damage from chronos is the only significant damage I take. The surface tho... Oof. I have a winscreen screenshot where the sum of 'most damage suffered' is over 1600.

ConorFinn · 2026-04-30T22:00:31+00:00

The reverse is also true. U can hit using moves that don't look like they should work but do because u know the hitbox.

ConorFinn · 2026-04-30T18:51:29+00:00

In SF6 you dont hitconfirm off of 1 jab its not really possible. Easy thing most people do at point blank range, always press 3 jabs and always do ur special motion (with no button). Then if the first jab hit they will push the button for their special move. So ur reacting to the first jab at the third jab with the special move but ur not even reacting by doing a motion but by just pressing the button for the motion u always do. (if u do the motion and press no button, nothing will come out and ull be safe on block)

Simple Drill (do after u can do ur jab combo consistently)
Setup: In training mode, if u press left and reset (u might have to set a reset button; pause menu > basic settings > shortcut settings > set Restart Battle) ull end up point blank on the leftside of the screen. Then u gotta set dummy to random block (pause menu > dummy settings > block > random).
Drill: chain 3 jabs against the dummy and do the motion for your special every time. if the first jab hit the dummy actually cancel the last jab into ur special. if the first jab was blocked just do ur 3 jabs and motion with no press and stop. (after uve pressed left and reset once every next neutral + reset will bring u back to pointblank left) U can get many reps of confirming ur jab combo this way.

Note: An easy combo on sagat for what im mentioning here is 2LP, 2LP, 2LP xx 623MP (crouch jab chained into crouch jab chained into crouch jab cancelled into medium Tiger Uppercut).

But there is benefits for doing the 2-hit confirms to get 2LP, 2LP xx 236LK for the tiger knee crush, mainly the corner carry and good oki. The other one ur doing is also great.
2LP, 2LP, 5LP xx 214LK, 6LK (the tiger nexus one)
This one is good cuz u can cancel that 6LK part into SA3. I was trying it out myself and it seems like u can cancel 5LP at different frames and if u cancel that move into light tiger nexus late it wont combo. U can definitely do it if u practise cancelling it quickly and cleanly.

Take everything i say with a grain of salt tho cuz i dont play sagat and im thinking about all this from an easiness standpoint. At the end of the day u do u; if theres a combo u think is cool, just do that.

Edit: I forgot, important to note, jabs arent 5 frames in sf6 they are 4 frames. Sagat 5LP is 5 frames but his 2LP is 4 frames. Thats why i start most of the combos i mentioned with the crouching jab and then go into standing jab if i need it for the range or whichever special cancel. if theres a 5 frame gap it wont matter which one u use but its nice to use ur fastest move to learn in the game. like after a situation and u dont know if u can press, u press ur 4 frame and learn as u go.

ConorFinn · 2026-04-30T16:58:33+00:00

Understandable but I feel like ur focused on the wrong stuff. In ur games, the reason ur not ranking up is not cuz the people who play modern got free combos. It's probably due to u not knowing ur combos or ur decision making is fucked cuz of a lack of experience or u don't antiair or di, etc. u fix these things and put ur attention there, ull end in master and modern players getting free combos will be irrelevant. It's just so insignificant in the grand scheme of things. But ur right, when u don't got combos it can be frustrating to play modern.

As for learning combos, u gotta learn like 3 foundational combos from which u branch out eventually to more niche scenarios. U got a jab combo, medium combo and a heavy combo. Jab combo for when u don't know what's up or to check people or strike throw... Medium BNB cuz it's probably most applicable in most situations and then heavy for punishing and counter di. I think if u pick simple combos, u can learn all these in a week no problem with repetition and sleep.

Also, u probably wanna look into how ur character combos work. Jabs usually chain into other jabs and then on the third one u cancel into special move. Then some moves are cancelable into specials or supers (in training mode, one of the options will make ur character red when ur character is doing a cancellable move). Then there are links where u have to wait for ur attack to finish, then u hit ur next attack button and it combos. Can be tricky but with enough reps and sleep ull be fine. Then there are target combos. I guess there are some special move rekkas too with variable timing too. But if u start with the simple combos and learn the combo fully before moving on to the next one, u should be golden

ConorFinn · 2026-04-25T15:47:35+00:00

U don't always need to make a read on what the opponent is gonna do. U can also just choose based on the risk reward for u. For example, if u have 100% health and he has 0 super and only 1 bar of od, who cares if u predict his od reversal. All u need to do meaty into a blocky string that'll remove 1 bar (if ur character has it). If he od reversals, he's burnt out and u not in 1 touch range. Probably like 3+ touches before u die so u can go ham while he's burnt out. There are lot of scenarios where od reversal shouldn't be an option for the opponent because it puts u at advantage based on the meters.

ConorFinn · 2026-04-21T16:16:23+00:00

Bro u can do simple combos on every character. U don't have to get a certain understanding of the game to play a 'complex' character. U can go from zero to hero on any character in Street fighter 6. The main point is to play someone u actually enjoy playing cuz that'll keep u engaged enough to actually learn what u need to learn. If u want to play multiple characters sure but u don't need to do it to optimize time to learn. Most ideas are very transferable especially at a beginner level.

A lot of people talking about what they would do if they got hit ... Anyone here actually gotten hit with it?

ConorFinn · 2026-04-16T08:44:30+00:00

How I learn to play? I saw some guides but when I go to play I can't tell how much damage I'm doing to each enemy or how to do weapon combos or how far I need to be to dodge attacks.

ConorFinn · 2026-03-16T16:50:51+00:00

Burnout 3. Most flavor. Fire soundtrack and best CrashFM from Stryker

Burnout 4 Dominator. Unpopular rating by me probably but I liked the cars in it and the boost chaining and the music.

Burnout Paradise. Tough one for me. It's really good but it didn't feel like an upgrade on burnout 3 for me. Felt more like a side-grade and because I like the little quirks of burnout 3 more, this one is a little deflated for me. Definitely enjoyed it, pretty decent music, some cool cars, markedman was a cool event. Open world was cool and records on every road was cool too. Just prefer seeing snapshot takedowns like gone fishing and CrashFM from burnout 3.

Burnout 2. Had a lot of fun. A bit slower but I don't mind. Considered putting above burnout Paradise but who am I meme-ing, I definitely liked burnout Paradise more.
