Re: advanced techniques

Thank you for this info, Porcupine! You are 100% correct about the method. When I said "zero" & "one-frame", please understand I meant actually seeing zero or one frame of sword animation before dashing. But it turns out there are frames even before that to account for. This ...

Re: advanced techniques

I thank you for your help. For something that was basic & known, there's no info anywhere out there on this move. Just stories & word of mouth, such as "a guy in Hong Kong could pull it off". I've tried replicating this hundreds of times in exactly the way you describe, with no luc...

VOOM Temjin "Standing Big Four"

edited for move conditions & added replay video: OK, I need to speak with a real VOOM Temjin expert, because I can't find any info on this move in a FAQ, movelist or anywhere. Everyone knows about the "Rising Big Four" - the side-dash-shot while rising from a knockdown, with 4 big shot...

Re: XBLA Cypher Trooper Virtual On available now! [VOOM]

I'm playing on PSN - created a JP account, then a JP PSN store account, and bought a JP PSN card online to pay for it. You can then download the game, and play it using your USA account normally. My PSN ID: CapsuleBoy Having some troubles with the Japanese menus - trying to get a few friends to tran...

Re: Q-Steps on 360

If this were the case, how would you dash out of CC range? You have to be stationary to quick-step, including in VER.5.66 arcade. That's right, it would be impossible to dash away. It must just be the dead zone people are having problems with. Any attempt to patch that would significantly alter the...

Re: Q-Steps on 360

For a quick step, you press a turbo button followed by a direction some amount of time later. By how much can they even change this amount of time anyway? The article almost makes it sound like you can be moving in a sideways direction first, and then hit turbo (or vice versa) and the quickstep wil...

Re: Q-Steps on 360

I got a question: The insertcredit article seems to be claiming that arcade 5.66 quicksteps were made easier over 5.45 and even DC, with more forgiving timing. Can anyone confirm that? I understand they're no problem when using twinsticks. But if the article's right, then they're even easier in the ...

Re: Impressions!

Impressions: I was instantly disappointed with the LACK of control pad mapping options! They could have done it right! You simply cannot map movement to the digital d-pad. Why not? Also, an entire button must be wasted on the "jump cancel" command. Previously (VOOM on Saturn) jump cancel /...

Re: Welcome VO fans

Welcome VMS. Did you have to have a special version of Saturn Virtual On to play over NetLink? I've got a US version of Saturn VO (disc only) and it doesn't say anything about NetLink on the disc. Also, how smooth/laggy was the online play? Yes, there was a special version that you got for free wit...

Video posted of Sega Saturn VO Netlink VS Matches

I could find no footage available online of Sega Saturn VO Netlink Edition versus play. So, I dusted off my old SVHS tapes and posted them. I created a YouTube channel here: http://www.youtube.com/virtuaroid Don't forget to watch them in "HQ". It's interesting to see how the Netlink worked...

Re: Share your VO experience or history

In 1996, my friend showed me VO on Saturn. I thought "what the hell kind of game is this? you push a button and... nothing happens... or... it happens later... everything is timed. No thanks, you have fun with this game, I'll go play whatever I want". The same friend pestered me into getti...

Re: Modded Saturn Twin Sticks for Xbox 360 - in progress

Real men used the DC control pad and LIKED IT. I'm gonna stir the pot here. Coming from Saturn VO:OMG - where every move actually could be done on the pad with less movement and/or less button presses - I was praying for a similar situation with DC VOOT. However, less buttons available on the Dream...

Re: Welcome VO fans

Greetings from an old-school Sega Saturn VO:OMG Netlink user. Any other Netlinkers in the house? The few of us in the USA got up to some furiously competitive modem action back in '97-'99. I played VOOT on DC minimally because of the lack of competition all around (no arcades, no online, no one will...
