I came up with a flowchart/mini-guide on fixing controller issues on GG+R, focused on causing minimum disruption to offline tournaments.
This should cover 99% of all cases, at Combo Breaker we only had 1 controller that got to the Big Picture step, none at Evo.
After 4+ hours of replay analysis,
@OrionSpeedwagon
and I have concluded that there is no firm evidence of JasonRiot cheating or using scripts online in +R. In my opinion, he should be exonerated and allowed to compete.
Found a CRAZY good deal on portable mini PCs for fighting games, these are the same models I have and already come with an HDMI port addon for $60 each, then you just buy the SSD and power cable for less than $90 total
🛡️ Blocking a drive rush attack leaves you at the mercy of your foe's offense—long-reaching attacks can keep them out.
While defending, stay cool and look for gaps in your foe's pressure or cross over to escape. You can also use a Drive Reversal to get them off your back!

Series S is
-smaller than ps5
-cheaper (even w converters)
-supports 120hz
-likely less laggy even w converters
We should seriously look into using these for locals/regionals/majors outside the Big 3 once SF6/T8 are out. Just because Evo does PS5 doesn't mean you have to.
For anyone browsing YouTube trying to learn +R, I present a simple guide to help you sift through all the videos out there. PROOF.
You must be prepared enter the forbidden realm of almost decade old 140p restreams to be the best.
It took over 10 years for the FGC at large to realize the benefits of leverless controllers and rollback netcode. Maybe in another 10 years we will realize that useful ranked matchmaking was figured out decades ago with ELO and we don't have to reinvent the wheel every time
Character representation in Top 64 of GG Strive, Combo Breaker 2022.
Only 3 characters were not represented at all: Jack-O, Goldlewis, and Testament

Low key I think a lot of the frustrations from SF6 stem from the game shutting down autopiloting harder than any other fg I've played. You can't stop paying attention for even a second, and unfortunately a large portion of the playerbase gets stuck on autopilot a lot...
Update: it's been tedious at times but I now have 4 mini PCs that can boot up +R hands-free in 45 seconds with 1000hz overclocked USB ports. Pad shown for size comparison, these really are "mini" PCs
Excited to help bring the +R community a smooth offline tourney experience!
Managed to get +R to run smooth as butter on 720p with only $130 worth of refurb hardware! This mini PC also has built in speakers.
Would love to test run this setup at FL locals for a bit before taking the plunge to potentially scale up for CB/CEO 2023 +R on PC 👀
I dunno why ppl act like you can't enjoy more than one fighting game, while also accepting their different strengths and weaknesses. Playing multiple fgs will almost always make you a better player.
This picking sides shit is as the kids say, cringe.
Jason has taken me up on this offer and wants to go and will try to unless there is a conflict with work. I will keep my word. Hope to see you offline.
I will personally pay for
@JRiotx
to fly to Combo Breaker 2023 (which will be on PC)+pay entry. If he's as real as he's shown online, he should easily get top 16 or top 8. Time to put up or shut up.

The gameplay is one thing, but the biggest travesty of Strive to me is the soundtrack.
To me GG went from a soundtrack so good I bought the XX CD to play in my car, to one I hate so much I mute it when I play at home.
Is there any GENUINELY reason with GENUINELY ARGUMENTS for people to hate Guilty Gear Strive??
Like, ik this ain't Yo +15 years old Nintendo 64 era Fighting Game but what the hell Bruh at this point Ya'll are just hating cause you can
Or driven by the nostalgia
@SilvrbackSenpai
Different communities have different average ages. The Strive community is rather young. SF though? Dude should just wait a month, cause a lot of the best SF players (at least locally) are in their 30s or even 40s and will start coming out again
The best part of +R replay takeover is that it turns an efficient but sometimes tedious/unfun part of getting better - reviewing losses - into a fun "what-if?" puzzle to solve. Then you get to implement the solution immediately and feel good.
Pls make this a standard feature

@TheHadou
If fighting games were my career, I would definitely vaguely slander the people that run the 2 biggest annual events and provide no details when given the opportunity.
How can you be so good at games and so bad at life
Uber cost to the venue due to them overbooking the hotel: $50
Flight cost cause I missed mine and had to rebook: $350
Winning not 1, but 2 CB medals after 6 years of trying and beating my biggest bracket demon 2-0: PRICELESS
#Tomgasm
SF-only players will write dissertations about quitting 6 as if there arent 20+ choices of other games to play, while refusing to support their supposed favorite versions and make fun of the skill level of those that do, then wonder why the rest of the FGC finds them insufferable
I uploaded a meme almost 15 years ago called "DOOR STUCK!" which still gets thousands of views every day. Made a video about that experience, and also exploiting it
#brrrrrrr
I will no longer be associating with Jason Riot and participating in his events. Only making this tweet b/c he keeps mentioning the time he was flown out to CB, and I don't want ppl to conflate that with endorsement of his behavior especially recently.
@MakoFGC
Most people (me included) just don’t want to commit their time to playing someone that they will probably get no meaningful practice out of playing. I don’t think that’s weird
I'm not gonna lie the +R discord admin being banned from here for a week cause he said "Kliff yourself" while actual hate speech runs rampant is depressing, but also hilarious.
Glad Muskie has his priorities in order, down with the gremlin!
It's honestly obnoxious how so many SF players refuse to try anything else within the genre. On 4 and V's release you could say it was due to lack of competition/netplay in other games but that's not the case anymore. Just oure stubbornness
So excited to get my first tattoo next week from
@melo_fgc
! Gonna get this classic XX design, but with the default K color.
Just need to decide right or left leg...still work in the corporate world, so no arm tattoos for now lol
The dev in charge of implementing GGPO for USF4 is going through some health issues, so please be patient and understanding as to why the private build was taken down, I wish them a full recovery and would rather wait as much time as needed to not sacrifice health
Crazy how Arturo's greed might have actually set PC optimizations back several years. Already ppl think FgcOS is a scam when he had no part in developing it, just promotion, and the actual devs taught me a lot and I feel the difference using their recs.

CEOtaku pairing with one of the most degen Florida cons at the same venue is wild.
Waiting to see who the first FGC personality is that's caught in 4k at a hentai panel 👁️👁️
For FGC to start planning for
#CEOtaku
here’s an idea of badge pricing at HolMat. About the same we already charge for CEOtaku so the fact you’re getting an entire massive con included is icing on the cake for this year.
We’ll have more direct info on CEOtaku soon.
150+ applications and 5 interviews later, I finally got a full-time job in my field of study for the first time in years! Huge load off my mind going into Evo.
I don't start until next week, so it's time to grind for real. 1 more week of the unemployed gamer buff to exploit.
"V was so much better I want a game that emphasizes defense and neutral more"
"Try UNI, it has crossup protection, you're +8 on throw tech and you get rewarded for blocking well"
"Nah I don't play anime"
🤦
Just so people know where I stand, I'm blocking anyone that comments transphobic bullshit on my tweets from now on, no matter your skill or how much I've learned from you.
Fuck off, trans rights.
Found this mod that hides rank info in SF6. The MR system is great for practice and good matchmaking, but it can lead to a counterproductive "play to win at all costs" instead of "play to learn" mentality while practicing. Gonna try it myself.
+R is officially approved for Combo Breaker! Not that there was much doubt, but it's still good to hear. Chicago is a hub for this game, should be a great tourney.
TOs winning their own event!?

Thanks as always to everyone that entered and watched. I felt the love from the crowd ❤️ see you all at Evo!

@MHBDave
They still constantly mention T*ump in their fundraising emails too, it's all they have, I still vote blue as a practical decision but I expect them to lose by 15+ points in Nov
I just got laid off. Going to make the very difficult decision to cancel my trip to Frosty Faustings.
We are looking for a new tournament lead for USF4. If you think you will be able/willing to do it send me a DM. We are still good on setups, it is scheduled for 2:30-6:30 Fri
It's amazing that +R is still getting QoL updates on top of the already excellent netcode. The button settings menu and audio device selection are a godsend for offline tournaments.
Massive respect to Fixmesteve and the others continuing to improve an already GOATed game 🙏
New update shipped for Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R on Steam!
Mostly offline improvements
-Button Settings & Button Check on character select screen
-Hold to pause, like in GGXrd&STRIVE, prevents accidental pauses
-New "Audio Device" setting
-Bugfixes

#GGXXACPR
Judge Gauntlet is a frame 2 infinite armor move that autocorrects and comes out instantly on certain frames, yet Dustloop and most of the community considers it bad.
Idk if that's misinfo or just a testament to how broken everything is in this game in general.
I will still advocate that major TOs should be upfront with the community about the costs and expected revenues for events. Hell I'll help make spreadsheets for it, I worked in accounting/finance for years. The entitlement is unreal
Thinking about how this time 2 years ago I quit fighting games and definitely never expected to care about GGXX again, now I'm playing it regularly, streaming it, organizing hotel suites for it and pushing for PC standard tourneys in 2023.
Rollback is something so great.
This was entirely my fault btw which makes it funnier. I was visiting my parents house and decided to try playing on their shitty wifi at 8am like a crackhead. P sure this was my first match LOL
@PunkDaGod
CB is ran amazingly every year actually, I've been to CB CEO FR Winter Brawl Evo etc and CB is by far the best. Everything is on time, they have a program guide, stages for all side games, stop being a diva
I feel like the longer you're in the FGC, the more you interpret complaints about your character as a sign you're doing something right, rather than a personal insult.
The LAST thing you want is for people to feel comfortable against you!
Since USF4 rollback is still being developed, I will respect the dev's wishes and not participate until they wish to release it. Looks like +R gaming tonight
In the past week we've seen TOs get harassed for following official world tour rules, harassed for banning someone, and harassed for not banning someone.
Combined with continually rising venue and event costs, it honestly seems crazy to wanna do this as a career nowadays
Taking the "FL" out of my gamertag. I'm not necessarily proud of living here atm, and only originally added it cause it used to be taken on here without it but now it was available.
Fuck DeSantis and Fuck Trump.
