I have never encountered a player from a lower/higher numbered group ever when i was playing champ mode, I dont know if the available player pool thing is true.

Same here, the available player pool thing seems weird

Posted by Chi-do-ri on August 3, 2009 at 10:56 a.m. #4

G1 Finals Loss is 100 GP + Total CP/#

Finals Win is 150 GP + Total CP/#

Unsure of the numbers you divide CP by to get bonus GP though

Posted by Chi-do-ri on August 3, 2009 at 10:58 a.m. #5

I have never fought anyone not in my same Grade (ie G1, G2) the avaliable player pool info is false unless you are playing in Free Mode. Free mode is the only mode where G3 can play G2 etc. Any letter grade can play any letter grade in the same grade pool (ex. G1-E can play G1-A)

Posted by lang on August 3, 2009 at 11:31 a.m. #6

They replay section needs some clarification as well...

Replays are only offered to players who are in the top 5,000 rank for Championship Points earned ***, and have exceeded the CP score for a previously uploaded replay***, after the Finals match has occurred.

My wording sucks, but hopefully you get the idea.

Posted by supermoves on August 3, 2009 at 11:46 a.m. #7

#5 I agree.

The only time Ive encountered players with grade points below the rank classes above is in G1. I assume this is due to the fact that in class G1 you can lose grade points unlike in G2 and G3. For example player1 reaches G1 with 15 0000 GP and loses the first battle (e.g -5 pts) he will by then only have 14 995 GP and still be competing in rank class G1.

G2 matches have 3 rounds

Posted by SSJ3X on August 3, 2009 at 12:10 p.m. #10

I think he means 3 rounds as in the match, best 2/3, which he's right. Battles however are 2 battles a semi and a final.

Posted by skatsi on August 3, 2009 at 1:40 p.m. #11

"G2 Rank Class Notes
• Round 2 Loss: +5 Grade Points."

If you beat an opponent the first round and gained 8000-10000+cp(dont know the exact number), you will gain 6gp which means cp is used to calculate gp gain even in round2 g2 loss.

Posted by Albert Wesker on August 3, 2009 at 1:44 p.m. #12

I know that G2 is that you get an extra GP point per every 7500 CP you earn, so if you lose in the semi-finals and have 22,500 CP, you get the 20 GP for making it to the Semi-finals plus an extra 3 GP for having 22,500 CP since 22,500 divided by 7500 is 3.

As for G1, you get an extra point for every 50,000 CP you earn.

Cho, A.K.A. Righteous under a different name, clearly sucks at SFIV because they need overpowered characters. Lame. I still beat all those Sagats because the majority of championship mode players are Sagats which makes their moves incredibly predictable. I barely lose to any Sagat, but it's just a shame that they all rely on Sagat.

It's typical how all those Akuma, Sagat and Flowchart Ken's come with the same repetitive lines "You just suck", "There are no cheap moves" and "Seth is not overpowered, in fact he's underpowered!!!"

Posted by sj on August 4, 2009 at 5:10 a.m. #24

And I'm not afraid of any of those scrubs. I just beat them. scrubby Sagat, shakunetsu Akuma, Flowchart Ken, everyone. The only ones who beat me are the real top tier skilled Sagats, the Akuma's that actually have skills, poke-linking good Kens and high-ranking Ryu's. It's not that Sagats and Kens are bad characters because there are very good players out there who know how to use them properly. It's just that the huge majority of Sagats and Kens suck, mash and get away with undeserved barely-wins against inexperienced players.

I dont use Sagat. i use Abel. Check out some of SJ's comments yourself.. Vega (claw) being top tier, just because hes not used to playing the character itself, have you ever played any other street fighter? do you know what tiers mean?.. SJ, try and play sagat and see how many times you win with him, the 'cheat' character..im not gonna explain every comment that SJ is ignorant of SF about..if you have ever played in the arcade it wont compare to people you play on xbox live.. Thats not me as rightous.

Posted by sj on August 4, 2009 at 3:07 p.m. #28

Cho, you're a good example of ignorance. I never said Vega is top tier, stupid. Don't put words in my mouth that I didn't say. Vega is a very capable character. Just because you are incapable of using him well doesn't mean he's bad.

I played practically every version of Street Fighter on any console, handheld and arcade. Stop saying stupid things you don't know. You're obviously a total amateur, relying on Abel's roll and get a scrubby feeling when using it. If you can't explain anything and just do statements without explaination you're obviously a pathetic troll. Now go away and don't come back.

Posted by sj on August 4, 2009 at 3:14 p.m. #29

Since Cho, the scrub doesn't understand it, I'll repeat it. You need to fight AGAINST a character to learn how to defeat that character. You just don't seem to get it. If you used Sagat all the way and never had a Sagat as an opponent, he will destroy you. You're too dumb to understand that logic. If you use Sim and played against thousands of Sagat opponents, you have much more chance to beat a random Sagat opponent than if you control Sagat for thousands of times and meet a good Sagat opponent for the very first time.

I hope your puny brain gets this one, Cho.

Posted by Shredelicious on August 4, 2009 at 6:09 p.m. #30

Cho, stop replying to sj's comments. He's not worth it and you will never convince him of what he really is.

He doesn't really know what a scrub is and sounds like he never will. He's going to read this and not believe it and more than likely going to respond with some logic that would seem funny to more serious and knowledgable players.

SJ - the truth is until you can abolish the idea that there are cheap or cheat characters, you will always be held back in Street Fighter. The fact that you won't use Sagat means you are holding yourself back from complete aspect of the game and you will never grow passed your own limitations. Play to win...thats all.

Posted by Voice of Reason on August 4, 2009 at 7:51 p.m. #31

Or play to have fun.

It's a video game.

Posted by Shredelicious on August 4, 2009 at 8:02 p.m. #32

He's not talking about playing to have fun.

He's talking about playing to win with a nonsensical code of honor and unwritten rules of cheapness. He's talking like he is a high level player, but to a real high level player (I assume that's what Cho is by his comments) he is just another scrub(by the true definition)

I play to have fun too, but I play to win as well because at high levels play...it is a different type of fun and learning how to win is part of it.

Posted by sj on August 5, 2009 at 12:45 a.m. #33

Shredelicious/Cho/whatever, funny how you change nicknames 3 times in 1 thread. It's funny how you say you're playing at high levels. You're a typical amateur, using amateur lines:

- There are no cheap characters (even though Seth Killian constantly calls "Seth" the cheapest character out there)
- There are no cheap moves (even though Seth Killian and players who defeated SF-legend John Choi constantly talk about "dirty tricks" and "cheap moves")
- Play to win (i.e. mash flaming dragon punches and tiger shots)
- Call yourself a "high level player"

You, Cho/Shredelicious, comply with all these beginner characteristics. I gave up avoiding dirty moves a long time ago. Instead of IGNORING those moves, I acknowledge that they exist and train myself to overcome these undeniably steep hurdles. I work around these moves.

The typical things about beginners is that they ignore cheapness and actually use it as a standard way to win and use quotes like "Play to win!". By admitting the existence of cheapness you can improve yourself to be resistant against these types of strategy. Even world top players say there is cheapness and that you need to learn to fight these type of moves. You, Cho/Shredelicious, are still in denial.

I never said I'm angry about "losing to cheapness". In fact, cheap players are the easiest to beat because they are so predictable. And cheap moves aren't necessarily bad, because you have to be as all-round as possible. Cheapness is called cheapness if you totally rely on low-skill-high-reward moves over and over again. If that's how you play, so be it. But it doesn't mean cheapness doesn't exist. Only Flowchart Ken and Sagat players deny it. Cheapness exists, but you need to learn how to use it against those players. It has nothnig to do with code of honor. It's how you screw up the game using lag switches, refusal of character choice at the selection screen before the other player chooses. If you mash, you just mash. It's cheap, but easy to beat.

You apparently don't know that, mister "EXPERT HIGH LEVEL PLAPYER"

Posted by sj on August 5, 2009 at 12:50 a.m. #34

And you still don't get it about the "using/playing against" discussion.

Cho's theory: "If you USE Sagat, you can beat anyone using Sagat" (i.e. even though you have zero experience AGAINST Sagat players)

my theory: "If you PLAY AGAINST a lot of Sagats, you have a better chance of beating a random Sagat"

Posted by mossman on August 5, 2009 at 8:02 a.m. #35

Although sj sounds like a whiner (complaining about cheapness is old and pointless) I do agree with his theory: playing regularly against a specific character, rather than using that character, gives you a higher chance of winning.

Chun Li is my main character, and I enjoy killing shoto players but I don't face many good Chun players so I find myself struggling a bit more when I face her, even though I am familiar with her tactics.

Posted by sj on August 6, 2009 at 12:04 a.m. #36

I don't complain about cheapness, I'm saying it exists. If you read my posts carefully you'll see I state that you should STOP ignoring the existance of cheapness. Rather than ignoring it or complaining about it, you should train against those players to learn how to work around those tactics. I stopped complaining about cheapness way back and know how to handle cheapness. A lot of players are like this:

beginner: complain about cheapness

slightly experienced: tell everyone cheapness does not exist because it's "scrubby" to say so

more experienced: don't mention cheapness because you've already acknowledged the existance of it and have enough experience to easily work around it and use the predictable behavior of cheapness to your advantage

A lot of players are still in denial because they are afraid everyone will call them a scrub if they say something is cheap. But those player will lose matches over and over again. The only way to win is to admit cheapness exists and use it in your own advantage. Learn how to use the opponent's mashing and flowchart playing to your advantage. Learn their patterns and if they fully rely on low-skill-high-reward tactics, learn to counter those tactics. No one can deny that Akuma has moves that are very easy to execute, yet hard to avoid by beginner opponents, like spamming his air fireball. Instead of ignoring this tactic as if it's "not cheap because cheapness doesn't exist" you should LEARN what tactics are popular and effective and more importantly, how to beat those tactics.

I don't worry about cheapness at all because I've been training a lot against flowchart players and Sagats. They are cheap, but I use their cheapness to my advantage and beat a lot of Sagats.

Ignoring popular easy-to-use-high-reward tactics is the dumbest thing you can do and the only reason to deny it's existence it is to save face because you're scared other people call you a scrub. Instead of whining and complaining, learn how to counter it, but don't refuse to admit it exists.

I'm getting close to G1 but not really looking forward it. Worried I'll take more time searching for games than playing when I do get there. Looking at the PSN rankings there are only about 3000-4000 G1 level players currently. Compare that to about 30000-ish in G2. Hopefully it'll get a bit better soon and people keep playing...

God I wish the peanut gallery would keep their mouths shut about character abusing. If you're good enough it doesn't matter who you are using or playing against. Saying someone is a scrub because of who they choose is poor sportsmanship, and just a sh*tty attitude to have in general. Instead of complaining and b*tching about it practice more then you wont have anything to complain about. And Cho just to clarify the idea of walking into an arcade and getting a decent challenge in this day and age is almost non-existent. I remember when the people who played in arcades were lining up to be great, but now live is just about all thats left for that style fighting.

Although SFIV needs a quarter lobby where you spec matches like all the other capcom games that have come out in the arcade.

It would be interesting to see how many players there were in each tier.

Posted by ncb on August 14, 2009 at 8:49 a.m. #46

does really worth it reaching S??

it seems there only are a few players (less than 15?) with more than 70K at the moment.

also, i think the difference in gameplay between G1 and S is not enough; yesterday i fough a 65K+ Abel, and he was really good, but i have fought other Abels with half points and they were quite similar.

Posted by D4 on August 14, 2009 at 10:48 a.m. #47

ncb thats something you will run into in extremely high ranked matches. Once a certain level is reached skill just permanently caps out, and its more about the nuance of how you play and counter each other. The skill is no longer about what you know different than the other player, its more about how you use previous experience, and timing to beat them. The most important aspect of SF in general is timing, and people with poor timing will never get past G2 realistically. SG may not seem worth it now, but the players there are significantly better than the pool in G2 and G1 only because they have a better handle on timing.

Posted by PSN: jondaman7788 on August 18, 2009 at 2:40 p.m. #49

I just got to G1 now.
It took me three days to get to G2 in April, after this long time, I got to G1 :), probably cos I switched from fightpad to stick and have to relearn the timings.
BTW, IMO, it is definitely worth it to at least get to G1. The competitions are much better and you have to extremely careful not to make mistakes. The majority of players are capable of starting with a jab on your mistake and punish you with ultras. Especially the Ryu, Sagats, Bolrags, Rufus, Ken, well, just about every character.
Get to G1, guys, so we have more people to play with :)
BTW, don't complaint, just deal with the "cheap shot", i love practicing my combo with randomly thrown TU by Sagat players.

My 2 cents on random stuff please do not get offended rofl and yes my comment is off topic lol
Annoying aspects of SF4 fights:
- Getting chipped a lot by fireballs :'(
- Getting uppercut/shoryuken randomly (not referencing to a well framce SRKFADCU)
- Almost dead, but playing non firebal character against a fireball character with good anti-air zoning :'(
- Difficulty to punish Cammy's cannon Spike (that shoryuken thing) - ahh i have no experience against console characters
- Akuma that T.P's away from knockdown to avoid crossups etc all the time and air fireballs heaps
- flowcharting rofl jump back repeat many times random shoryuken and jump forwards
But their all things you just have to deal with I guess, whether your a shoto player yourself or like me more of a charging character playing.

Albeit - my chun li has issues fighting other chun lis and blanka :( cos lake of experience, but also sometimes dies from sagat cos of his high damage but i blame if on my slow learning curve to counter sagat well :'(
Anyways in the risk of sparing another Cho v SJ standoff i shall post this rofl cos I spent the time reading their arguments :'(
PS: Think SJ just argues that HONDA ABEL Zangief etc have their own style of play like Mike Ross' Honda
But theres nothing wrong with playing kara throw,combo kens, fadc ryus and insane zoning sagats, and good defensive yet combo effective akumas.

But 'cheat' characters rofl bit strong there.

Posted by D4 on September 1, 2009 at 12:39 a.m. #57

@ #56

Nothing of what you said was random. All those things are good tactics that are used to play better. I play Chun-li and you have to ween yourself off of the heavy flip kick cross over to ex lightning legs, there are much better combos to use that will catch people unawares. For example she has certain anti-anti-air that takes priority if timed correctly. A jump, down medium kick will 90 percent of the time stop a shoryuken in its tracks but it all takes good timing. You can also use the down to charge a spinnig bird kick or if you planned everything correctly an ex spinning bird kick. You can also use back medium kick medium kick down up medium kick to segway into a light spinning bird kick to ultra. You have to position it close to a corner but if you pull it off it really will catch your opponent off guard. Most Blankas are still flow charts, all you have to do to beat them is abandon throwing her fireball because it makes you extremely vulnerable to the sweep heavy punch he has. Also really watch how often you use your ex's if you save one you can spam her light fireball to the point where your op will get very smug and start to parry them. Then you slam them with an ex fireball. Also never forget that Blanka is completely vulnerable to the ex SB kick unless he uses an ex move then just jump out of the way blocking against him is suicide.

And as always practice makes perfect, learning the flowcharts and predictable moves will give you the advantage. You may not know what to expect from a specific person, but you know what to expect from the character so go into every fight expecting the worst. Any time you expect less you will find that you lose easily because you underestimated them.

G1 really isnt a major accomplishment if u really look at it.. anyone could get there given that they play enough.. GP + BP = BS to me.. rankings dont mean anything.. tell me why i only have 5000gp, but i beat up on G2-A people with 10,000+ gp, and sometimes with the greatest of ease.. its all about your fighting style.. for every person u own, someone equally owns u.. unless your all in SG, and have a reason to argue over who is better than who, just keep your mouth shut and play for what the game was meant for: FUN.. duh

Posted by Anonymous on September 27, 2009 at 9:54 p.m. #65

Okay buddy. Here's how it goes. The system is made to slowly and surely separate the good players from the bad players (IN THE LONG RUN).

Soon , there will be enough good G1 players to kick down all of the people who don't deserve to be there, or just happen to fortunately make their way up there. The system is designed to make you get better by placing you against players of similar skill when you reach a point where you feel as if you cannot continue further. Over a long period of time, you will face players who are better than you, that are actually legit because the increments and amount of points needed to move up a rank are more difficult and time consuming to attain.

Can you honestly find a G1-B player right now who isn't legit and still plays like a scrub? The chances are 1/10.

I play Champ mode to fight people who are actually skilled to improve my game, not to see how many points I can get. And THAT is the whole concept behind Champ mode.

Posted by subliminal uk on September 28, 2009 at 6:57 a.m. #66

i've noticed in a few comments about being kicked out of g1.

this does not happen. from what i have seen, you lose points from a first round loss, but if you go under 15,000 you still stay in g1. ive seen g1 players with 14,900 points.

in g2, a scrubby player with bullsh*t on lock can do ok, lots of little fights against people that cant deal with it = points eventually.

in g1, you need some skill and adaptability. otherwise you struggle to accrue points. you can't abuse tricks, if you don't mix-up people adapt fast.

i'm loving g1, won a few championship fights yesterday.

subliminal uk is right, ive played G1 players who have less than 15,000 points (someone had 14,700 points i think) and are still grade G1-E. I dont actually understand how these people get under 15,000, I mean you only lose 5 points for losing the first round, and gain 10 for losing the second round. G1 is definitely harder to progress than G2, but its not THAT difficult to win a G1 first round.

For the higher rank players, how much time do you spend practicing? Also Im new to the online street fighter community and all this talk about flow chart kens has me feeling guilty for using him. I'm just comfortable using him because he seems fairly adaptable to most opponents styles of play. I reached G-2 with him without ever using his ultra combo in a single round. I definetly Need alot more practice though, I've started using the ultra combo at G-2 level because I am getting my ass kicked, you guys are right about timing. One poorly executed move = death

@72 EL-MAPACHE

Flowchart kens usually refers to kens who just spam Shoryuken, though the term is more loosely used now. It was coined mostly by people who could not block but I mean, any person who spams any move is going to get punished for using it incorrectly.

After getting to G2 (on 360) I barely ever fight any other Ken users. Today I've barely fought any Ryu users either. I'm finally getting a random mix of every character on the board, so I can't wait to get out of g2a to g1.

I paid for this game and should be allowed to record a replay when ever I want. It sucks. At least allow us to record against friends. Sheesh!
