So...is the revenge meter just for ultra supers or can revenge be used for anything else?

Posted by peter on November 11, 2008 at 5:07 a.m. #4

thx for all this but i'm a bit confused by the focus attacks,after you held down the appropriate buttons and blocked(saved)...just release both buttons to retaliate or...?
hope to hear,thank you

Posted by Catalyst on November 12, 2008 at 6:26 p.m. #5

Yes, just release both buttons to retaliate.

Posted by abel and viper lover :) on November 12, 2008 at 7:28 p.m. #6

peter, yes u let go of the buttons after a hit. this will perform a hit BUT when u are holding onto the focus buttons, being hit 2 times will cancel the focus attack.

Posted by mosy on November 22, 2008 at 9:19 p.m. #7

omg this is just so awesome man i have been looking through lots of website to learn how to cancel special but never found any in all the previous webbies but until now i finally found this website it sure helped me so so much thx alot keep it up

Posted by J on November 23, 2008 at 11:56 a.m. #8

Hey, you can also Technical on wake-up by hitting the 3 punch buttons (like in CVS2) as you hit the ground.

is there teching in this game like 3rd strike

Posted by berwyn on January 8, 2009 at 4:42 p.m. #11

as in tech-throwing? yes there is.

Posted by Ichorid on January 10, 2009 at 12:49 a.m. #12

I guess he meant teching as in parrying, in which case no. Although you can still absorb a hit with the FA.

Posted by Anth on January 10, 2009 at 2:22 p.m. #13

when cancelling, i mean say your sagat and you do the uppercut which turns u into yellow (LP + MP) how do you cancel it so you can perform more of a combo. is it the same as focus attack cancelling? dash forward?

Posted by Anth on January 10, 2009 at 2:27 p.m. #14

EX move cancelling i mean

Posted by Qaeoss on January 13, 2009 at 12:03 p.m. #15

Damn, no parrying? I had so much fun with that playing friends in 3S. Oh well, this will still probably grow to be my favourite SF game.

Posted by Jordan on January 17, 2009 at 1:47 a.m. #16

Will the super meter carry over to the next round like in 3s, or is it reset like in super turbo?

Posted by Gief on January 23, 2009 at 6:29 a.m. #17

Im confused about the canceling of focus attacks too.

Can someone please give an example of a scenario?

an example of FADC is Ryu's uppercut -> opponent sent flying up -> dash cancel -> fireball super

Posted by Blazing Salvo on February 10, 2009 at 11:43 p.m. #29

Blazing Salvo deals 3 damage to target creature unless that creature's controller has Blazing Salvo deal 5 damage to him/her.

Posted by simpliztic on February 11, 2009 at 5:26 p.m. #31

goddamn it...looks like we really have to get joysticks now cause to perform ultra you need to press all 3 punches/kicks at the same time.

Posted by Sakyou. on February 12, 2009 at 1:21 p.m. #32

You can assign 3punches/kicks in just one button, in the option-control screen. This works in standar controller or fighstick.

Posted by Focus Attack Victim on February 12, 2009 at 8:14 p.m. #33

Let's say you get knocked down and the other guy charges up for a focus attack and times it so that it launches a level 3 right when you get up. Since level 3s are unblockable, aren't you pretty much screwed?

Posted by Simpliztic on February 13, 2009 at 10:46 a.m. #34

@Sakyou

I knew we could do that but even so...most pad players would have those 3 punches/kicks button on the left shoulder(L1,L2) which isnt easy to execute the move esp during combos.

Posted by outforprophets on February 13, 2009 at 12:12 p.m. #35

@Focus Attack Victim:

I'm by no means a pro but I'd imagine that's when using a quick get up (or not) would come in handy.

Posted by Plan Ekpo killah on February 18, 2009 at 9:09 a.m. #44

Please tell me that was not a serious comment dude. Mortal combat has nothing on the street fighter franchise. Have you tried MK vs DC? The game that was supposed to "blow sf4 out of the water"? Please. Street fighter will live on for years, while MK will be nothing but a distant memory of the 90's.

Posted by Stinger on February 18, 2009 at 1:07 p.m. #45

If i do a shoryuken with ken, my brother always grabs me if he blocks my shoryuken. is there a way to counter his throw, i tried to press the grab buttons exactly when he does, so is it possible or not. Please need to know ASAP for upcoming tournament. My brother usually plays with Sagat, and he continously does his HK whenever i try to jump and not even my tornado kick can break through. need help!!! Thanks.

Awesome Guide. I plan to pick up the game tomorrow (retailers release it tomorrow here), but I seriously suck at SSFIITHDR on the PSN. Does this game control slightly differently from that game (like is it slower, faster etc). And does it have some form of a tutorial, so that I can actually get better, and would getting a fight stick really improve my ability, or would I still be a crappy fighter. I really want to get good, I tend to lose a lot more than I win on the PSN -__-, any and all help would be appreciated.

Hey Fellow nerds :) i am trying to get the hang of this game, i am a hard core tekken player and whant to be normal + in the street fighter game, i cant c the use of the 3 types of ehh "ALLUCAN!!" Fire balls, why dont we always use the Bigg one havl circel forward and r1!... or the "hepcuanbergen " chopper kicks, why dont we ALWAYS use the best one... in my case halv circle back and R2!, whats the point of the other ones?

Posted by TDizzle on February 20, 2009 at 10:06 a.m. #53

Using the best one usually leaves you vulnerable for a counter attack. If you use the weak version, i.e., light punch for fireballs, light kick for hurricane kick, you will have a better chance of blocking any retaliation the opponent throws at you. It's basically a risk vs. reward concept.

TDizzle thx for answer. I have played it hard now to day and know that its more easy to use with combo aswell the light Shoots and spin kicks.
But hard things to do for me is:

1: Do the ultra with Zangeif is Impossibe, i didd it 2 times in one hour and that kinda meens its impossble. I have played tekken longe and are use to hard moves, but 2 full circles?? OMG!!

2: Hard to get the moves right everytime... like ryu, rhe uppercut and the shoot.. kinda hard to get the shoot everytime with out the uppercutt comming! espessially if u are doing it fast like the fire ball directly to the super shoot in combo, the uppercutt always sneeks in!

3: Is there a move that breaks Blankas Electrisity? Like a general move... low kick or somthing?

4: Why do ppl play with Ryu and Ken if u have Akuma.. seems he have the best of both.... ?

Sorry bad english! Hope u understand guys and help me out with some sort of answers :) Love the game btw.. but i whant to be a good og decent player :)

Posted by THEBOYSOSI on February 21, 2009 at 11:44 a.m. #58

Posted by jayshwan on February 21, 2009 at 2:22 p.m. #59

Akuma has very little defense, very squishy character that can dropped by a couple of combos from boxer or other heavy hitters.

About canceling throws I do find it quite hard to tech against throws so i put throw to one of the front shoulder bumpers (360 controller) that helps but generally I've fund using moves with faster frames rates is quite a god tactic against throws but then again this tactic has proved deeply flawed when not used well.

@ IVAN

You can cancel out of focus moves by dashing forward or backwards.

Posted by AliZeroThree on February 23, 2009 at 11:06 a.m. #64

@ Chub

Zangiefs ultra can be easy if you jump in and start the double 360s in the air. When you land you wanna be finishing up the rotation and pressing punch. There are times when you can do it on the ground but it's difficult to do. Hope this helps.

Posted by MugPal on February 25, 2009 at 9:28 a.m. #65

This is just what I have been looking for. Never been much of a street fighter, but I thought this new game should be my new gaming project. Sites like this is a great help.

can someone explain who to do a ulta or super move for Zangrief because i don't understand how to do that i know the buttons but i don't know how to do.

there's written 2 times a stick with the direction but do you have to do that twice or both the sticks? thanx

and what's the best charcter to learn with?

Posted by AndrosX on March 6, 2009 at 12:33 p.m. #75

@Poephole

You have to perform the 360 degrees twice, using the left stick.
It may sound hard but if you try it out you should be able to execute that ultra/super no problem.. try it out in the practice mode.

Posted by shazaa on March 11, 2009 at 6 p.m. #78

okay, this is rediculous, am i the only one who's not getting this. all the ultra attacks have red dots. i understand that the red dots symbolize your joy stick, but when there's two red dots beside each other, one pointing left the next pointing right, do i use both joy sticks? or just one and do the movements quickly. whatever it is, it's retarded the way they placed that, i can't understand at all.

Posted by ove on March 12, 2009 at 4:23 p.m. #79

I agree to everybody who's having a problem understanding the manual or in game move menu. To begin with some of the text in the game (e.g. sagat's fake kick) is so small that I can hardly read it on my 42" hdtv, that's bad capcom! Further the description of the moves is in general to brief.

@ shazaa
I guess you'r refering to ultras like chun-li's or blanka's? In that case you execute the moves just like a regular sonic boom or knee press. Charge (hold back for 2 seconds) than press rapidly forth, and in the ultras/supers press rapidly back and forth again, and than press the hit button.

@ Poephole
To perform an atomic buster you have to circle the left control stick twice. The easiest way to do this is to execute the move in the air while jumping towards your opponent pressing the punch button when hitting the ground. Remeber that you only have to circle the control stick 540 degrees even though it says 720 in the manual, knowing that makes the move a hell lot easier to perform! Answering your question which character is the best to learn with I would say sagat. He has good reach, his moves takes a lot of damage, he has good stamina and lacks greater weaknesses.

I end this contribution with a question of my own. What is a cross-over or cross-up attac?

Posted by Oculus-Orbis on March 18, 2009 at 9:15 p.m. #80

One very important -and strangely overlooked- thing I think deserves to be mentioned....
"PRESS/RELEASE" as opposed to "Tap"
Ever since SF2(ww), you can complete a command special by RELEASING the required button instead of tapping, after the command input.
e.g. Ryu's Crouching HP cancel into HP Hadouken:
D+(press)HP, D-F, F+(release)HP

this is an integral part of my playing style which surprisingly, many don't even realize.

Posted by Oculus-Orbis on March 18, 2009 at 9:42 p.m. #81

Sorry about the double-post,
As it turns out, the technique I mentioned is now called:
"Negative Edge" (I'm officially "out of the loop")LOL
Anyone who doesn't know of this, needs to.
And yes, they are still usable in SFIV(those who were asking).

What is the difference between the U, V, and C wins? I know the U is ultra, right? And the V is a victory, but what is the C? Does it mean comeback?

Posted by PumpkinBomber on March 21, 2009 at 4:16 a.m. #84

C is a Chip win. You chipped away at your opponent while they blocked. There are also titles u can unlock if you get enough "chip" medals from online play.

Posted by Oculus-Orbis on March 21, 2009 at 9:23 p.m. #85

C Also known as cheesy (mostly due to the big piece-o-cheese icon in the alpha series).

Posted by Metzhara on March 21, 2009 at 11:23 p.m. #86

While this isn't overly illuminating, I gotta say it is very well written. For people who are new to the series (like myself) that had to dig into the light manual only to find nothing, this can piece together some of the holes.
On it's own, I might say this is good, but used in conjuncture with the manual, and I'll say you did a fantastic job elaborating on the games simpler mechanics.

Thank you for giving the "New Warriors" a chance to get in on the action. If it weren't for new people in the game, the series would eventually die out. This message goes out to those who play online and grief the hell out of newbies. Not everyone lives and breathes SF, so give them a chance. Teach and maybe you too can learn something.

Excellent site. Thank you from someone who is just getting into sf4. Was also wondering if someone could explain 'cancelling' to me. I understand how to cancel a focus attack but on some Combo guides it talks about e.g cancelling into a fireball even when a focus attack hasn't been used. Can you cancel any form of attack to allow another quick attack? Apologies if this is a really stupid question.

Thanks
Mr tetley

Ok in fear of sounding like a total noob. When trying to do supers and ultras, it just does a regular special for super and an EX special for ultras. Example is EX Dragon Punch for Ken's ultra. I know its a timing issue or something but come on...

I really loving this game, I have been dominating my freinds for a while untill some one learned how to crossover and get behind my block. Now im mostly lossing! How in the world can i even the odds and Is ken the only person with a affecting crossover using medium kick! i use ryu and I cant find a good crossover I need help. HOW DO YOU DEFEND AGAINST CROSSOVERS???

Posted by Oculus-Orbis on April 23, 2009 at 3:56 p.m. #101

To defend against crossovers, you have to block high by pressing FORWARD(not back). Because at the time of the hit, they are on the other side of you. Many of the characters can perform crossovers, some just use different attacks(Ryu can do a MK crossover as well).

Posted by Focus Non-Master on May 18, 2009 at 6:41 a.m. #102

The most powerful technique in SF4 is the Focus Attack Dash Cancel. A long and thorough post regarding this would be helpful. Especially how to cancel fireball and dragon uppercuts. How I cancel a fireball is to do a medium punch fireball but after you tap medium punch immediately tap MP and MK together while tapping forward then release the buttons. What you have done is performed the fireball then canceled it so you are free to move and chase your fireball or conduct another move.

Posted by Roger on May 19, 2009 at 7:12 a.m. #103

Whenever you have someone who Focus Attacks you when you get of the ground, that's always a good time to use your super or ultra attack. 99% of the times there to late to dash out of it! And you'r super/ultra goes through the Focus attack.

Posted by Peacecraft on May 23, 2009 at 7:57 a.m. #104

I just read somewhere, that the back dash has some invincibility frames. I tested this and it's true. It seems to be a little thing, but can be extremly useful.

SF4 PC Version slow motion cheat: run folding at home GPU client then run the game. The game fps will slow down to 30fps or lower, (fyi, 60fps is the standard speed.) and you can play the game in slow motion. depends really on what card you have and the graphics settings you use.

lol, thats no cheat man. the game is just slowing down because the system is under heavy pressure. if u got a weak system u can just put on some AA/AF and the game will slow down very hard.

Great site!
I know the basic moves and usually play Sagat. Tiger shot, Tiger Knee or whatever are all good but I keep getting whipped by Guile and the new masked wrestler, and I mean whipped. Whenever he gets close Guile flash kicks and combos and the wrestler dude did the same.
What are the best defensive moves until I get combos and "juggle" moves better?????????
Any help would be appreciated so I can go back and kick his ass!

Oe! Must say... The 3D rox... I used to play 2D fighters: SFalpha1, KoF and Capcom vs Snk2.. SF4 is way cool, can't wait for KoF12 and Blazblu... Am SO glad Rose is in, shes my absolute fav.. Wish Charlie, Guy, Sodom, Maki, Eagle and Rolento were also in...

Posted by Sean aka Flesh.Turned.Stone on August 11, 2009 at 4:27 a.m. #123

I forgot to add.. I just got SF4 yesterday on pc.. Yes pc. Most of the moves are quite easy to perform.. Except for 2... The double 360 circle moves are virtualy impossible.. And, although they're do-able, the diagonle charge triangle moves(like Vega's super) are very hard to pull off in the heat of combat.. I don't suppose theres an easier way to perform these moves on keyboard... ANY suggestions? I would be eternally greatful.. Btw Akuma sucks and Rose rules!!

Here's a trick for u guys who strugle to execute ultra combos with the 3x buttons. You can switch the 3x punch/kick buttons from left shoulders (LB/LT in Xbox 360 and L1/L2 in PS3) to the buttons u have the high blows. I have always do that in SF games but now I think Capcom took this little trick into consideration and changed the blow that comes out when u single press 3x buttons to the high ones and not more the weak ones. With that u can stil have this trick enabled when playing with chars that have 3x special moves like Vega, Bison, Balrog and Zangief and, as a plus, u will have to press only one button to execute EX moves. More pros the cons in this version using this trick. The cons? U can imagine it, can't u?

You can also get up faster by pressing two attack buttons instead of pressing down which can be useful for charge-characters

You don't have to hold MK and MP to FADC. Just press MK and MP once and dash to cancel.

Thank you so much for this guide! It's so useful! I've started playing this in the arcade a few weeks in Japan (I'm now staying in Fukuoka till next month) and I haven't got a clue how to play.

Thanks to the site, I know how to use the basic. I'm going to the arcade after Japanese school (or before) and give this game another go.

Yo, I can do focu attack (crumpling), FADC. But how can you do a EX FA or EX FADC

Posted by joe on January 12, 2010 at 2:12 p.m. #130

do you have a video that you can show us how to do the FADC.

Posted by Sfighter on January 19, 2010 at 5:03 a.m. #131

when you do the focus(you must hold the two buttons pressed),
just do the dash(forward, forward,and if you want u can do ultra or super or any other regular move).And thats how you cancel FOCUS!!!!

Why is timing for special move cancel changed after 2 hit combo but not for 1 hit? It's annoying.
