What's new

Any New York City region area players?

Fujin and Ermac for MK 11
Sounds cool. I hang in BK sometimes with my friends from time to time, used to live out there before moving out to SI. Yeah, I'm sure the next time they have something it should be a patched version of the game right? Since the new patch is coming out really soon :)
 
Hey All.

Wasnt able to make the tourney @ NL this week. Work till 10.

My buddy is having surgery this weekend so I am baby sitting But I am planning on hitting up Next Level next Friday and or Sat (6/17).

If anyone is gonna go or is planning to go, hit me up or post here.
 
Yeah, im never going to Next Level again. Maybe if i get a lagless PS3 pad converter.
I think its retarded the tourney was run on 360 when everything nowadays in run on a PS3 (most likely because that pad is god awful.)
I will definitely be in attendance for the 8bit tourney, looking forward to that.

I wish this was twitter so I'd get notifications when REO runs trains on MKF. Shit is so lulz

Generally, ports are better on Xbox 360, some TO's like 360 more, and no one judges the systems by the controllers, and that goes both ways. Its the players responsibility to get a pad or stick they can use, converters or not.
 
Ur right.
Still seems stupid to run 360s over PS3. Especially when every tourney, venue, and major runs on PS3s.
Jus saying...

they have more setups at NL for xbox than PS3 iirc but that'll be fixed later on Dreamkiller. Not much we can do about that at the moment barring them getting more PS3 setups. XBox is generally better for almost every major tourney fighter not named Tekken/MK9 anyway.
Who won the tourney? I heard only 11 ppl entered :(

NY scene is on blast when I have to travel to get most of my competition. Shoutouts to the dedicated players in NY though, like Riu48 and a few others, i respect their dedication and drive to get to offline events. Even Dreamkiller is trying to do what he can to get better given his situation and thats something i can respect.

MKF: umm yeah if you have real life stuff to handle, then handle that obviously. Noone is disputing that. Just I don't understand how you can ask all these qusetions (about where the venue is, what neighborhood etc etc) when i posted the link on this forum and all it takes is for google maps to find out easy directions by train/car/etc. come on dude, it's p. clear that youre not gonna come out anytime soon. I know players that have worse situations than you and they still make it out. bottom line is if dont bother about askign about offline events if youre never gonna show up, lol (the information is all here for u easy in this forum. hell I even posted in this thread where the places to play are.)

No, now please stop spreading rumors about me.
Also, I am seriously considering banning you from these forums until someone CONFIRMS that you are actually posting for a purpose. (meaning, I want a picture of you actually at one of these places other than your house.)

Rethink your shit, Pete. Not kidding.

Dreamkiller I actually talked to Min (who ran the event) and he didn't know about XBox not saving hotfixes. None of TS plays MK9 seriously so you shouldn't expect them to know that. I already made them aware of it for next time, but if that kinda situation ever comes up again then just remind them b4 tourney starts about it. Sorry u had a rough experience despite me talking up TNL I still think its a good place.
 
Everythings cool. I'm currently debating ECT Haha.
But I'm down to support the kommunity (i come from Calibur so I KNOW wat its like to not only start small, but be a small community.)
MLP says he has ppl who play and me and gryphin are trying to get somethin started. I'm looking at Sun-Wed Afternoon type thing (i should be good for one of those days), so for whoever is free lemme know if u can. Just trying to arrange my free time accordingly.
Lemme know when u come back. Congrats and good luck homie.

Sabin, ok tell ya what. If I can make it to one, I'll be sure to let you know. ;) I'll just mapquest it and ask a friend(who knows BK and NYC inside and out literally) well who can help me out for sure. He goes to BK all the time :)

I don't get why you have to IM me, lol jsut show up. I don't know why that is so hard for u lol. Apparently people have been trying to get u to come out for years and u just write novels, so if u show up cool if not then i dont care lol.

Had fun in team tourney yesterday! Me and Tokido and CEO Jebailley got top 3 in teams :)

lol I was talking to Storms with the IM man. I'll keep an eye out for this thread or things in NYC in general that you post, if I can make it I'll let you know. :) I'll be blunt but respectful at the same time :)
 
Anyone looking for MK9 casuals going to the Next Level this week ? They are open 7 days a week now, 10 bucks.

Also, 8 Bit on Sunday night could desperately use 3 or 4 players that want to play MK9 (with limited space and all).

This sounds good I didnt know Next Level had MK9 all week. I have a buddy that will go let me know when youll be there. Also where is 8 bit I'm from Jersey but I'll make the trip.

Congrats on CEO great games and fun to watch. You and Ross was definitely my favorite moment of the tourney. Quick question Is Next Level still only open on weekends ?

Yeah, today was the first day Next Level officially opened for all week business. They dont nessesarily have "mk9 all week" but there are always unused setups that on request Ben, Henry or whoever is running the floor can load up mk.

8 bit is a video game shop on in Manhattan. 35 St Marks Pl New York, NY 10003
http://shoryuken.com/forum/threads/the-8-bit-sessions-manhattan-nyc.124575/

Not much space, typically just 4 setups 1 marvel, 2 sf4 and one empty which I load up mk but since no one plays Phire just shuts it off to save "energy" lol.

I just reached out to phire he mentioned someone else reaching out to him to get the scene for MK started. I dont know if that was you he said he is going to get back to me and should be able to accommodate. So hopefully all goes well. I'll keep you posted!

I believe you may be reffering to me in this post ;-)

I sent Phire an email inquiring about casuals this week, and it appears they are only being hosted on PS3 as well as the tourney on Saturday night. I dont have a PS3 compatible stick (yet) so I will have to either spectate or come thru in a few weeks , since my stick wont be ready for PS3 play till after the 25th.

However if anyone is planning on going to 8Bit this weekend and has a stick they could lend me, I will happily buy you San Loco or any meal of your choice ;-)
 
The thing with 8-bit is that for casuals if you really want, you can bring your console if your up to it. There are a handful of "HOUSE" xboxes but they are used up for mvc3/AE. What's left is 1 or 2 fat ps3's. For the tournament i guess some people might be "donating" more consoles.

Lucky for me I am dual modded.

But again, for casuals bringing an xbox console if your comfortable is cool. As a matter someone brought theirs last week so we could play ssf4+aedlc.

Its a pain in the arse but I am totally totally willing to bring my own console if it means getting a chance to play some people offline.

Think I could get away with just bringing the console itself without all the cableage? Ill gladly bring cables but if i can avoid digging behind my TV to disconnect everything that would be my preference.

Thanx for the reply bruv.

BTW, I know the tourney is on Sat. Are the casuals planned for this Friday?
