Hello all,
Need advice. I've bought myself a MadCatz SSFIV TE arcade stick and had my first go with it last night.
To be honest, its mostly been a smooth process.. after half an hour/around an hour I was pulling off basic BnB combo's with my 3 mains (SZ, Sektor, Ermac). However, I can't do it completely consistently like I could with the Xbox controller.
My questions are:
1) Do any of you who use an arcade stick have a preferred grip? I seem to have trouble dashing.
2) How do you place your right hand?
3) How do you block properly?
Stupid questions I know.. but its just so hard. I can BnB fine, but when it comes to dashing and blocking I go completely unco. My dashing is all over the place.. sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. My blocking hardly happens properly because my fingers are out of place during attacks.
Is it just practice that will get me there? I'm not going to give up.. I did toss up the idea of switching back to pad last night because I was getting destroyed online.. but I bit the bullet and kept attempting to use the stick.
I plan on giving it another go tonight.. any advice you can give would be great.
