I just ordered mine yesterday. No timeout issues? Anything else you can give feedback on would be great.

I am on x1 and 0 issues whatsoever. They improved a lot of aspects about thier product from what i can tell

We've been trying to improve the PCB to eliminate dropped input issues and hopefully we have succeeded. Timeout issues shouldn't exist until Sony updates the PS4 firmware and blocks our PCB, but when that happens we'll push an update ASAP to fix it.

Hopefully everyone is enjoying their purchase.

I got the xbox one version so no problems at all. I got huge hands so I find it smaller then I thought.

It's fantastic. It's light and sits in your lap very comfortably and the smaller buttons make a lot of since. I'm still getting used too the jump button but I'm getting there.

The buttons on the front I have to get used to as well so has I don't accidentally hit the home button or pause but I'm trying to remember it's there like I wooden cabinet case.

The cord is long and has the velcro thing to secure it. I'm thinking of modding the outside case to secure it better.

It's very sleak and polished. It's a work art. I do believe that most will not go back to stick or pad after you have one of these stickless sticks. I would suggest watching the tutorials online to get acquainted with it.

As for the inputs this is all I could to you right now.

I'm able to do Goro command throw with ease now but I'm trying to figure out a better method then the one I'm using.

Still getting used to qcf & instant air moves but I'm not pushing too hard. Run combo's seem a bit easier but too tell the truth any tips anyone can give me would help too.

Mann i don't know. I been chalking it up to muscle memory lol but it feels like I'll never get used to hitting what buttons i need to at the right time. Especially on the right side of the screen its such a nightmare for me personally. Ironically, mkx is the only game im having trouble with it in. KI is fine for me, so is tekken/doa. The run cancel and run in general just auugghh

I know. Try turning off some of the setting in the controller menu or turning on alt controls. It'll force you to get the timing and execution down I find. Aslo try all the characters and practice them on the side your mostly do not favor. It helps a bit.

This is what I was told from a friend. It kinda helps not to push yourself to fast and be easy. I have to remember that it's a brand new technique and view of gaming.

Aslo I'm aslo in the same boat. I'm. Looking on the tym hitbox thread and the SRK one as well to try and get a full view. Going to hit up the tekken zaibatsu forums too.

Cool np jus add me x Tee Jay o

Now what i wanted to mention since i received my HB 2 weeks ago is that it seems you can input certain commands TOO fast cause i tried doing instant air fireballs (just like the guy in the tutorial vid at the HB website) and it's not working at all having tried several methodes but wich none of them is working. Am i doing something wrong or...?Thnx in advance

First time seeing the hitbox. My mates have a similar one like this, but instead of the directional buttons it has a lever.

I saw in ESL America a dude using one against Hayatei, but for some reason it got flanked and had to retire from the tournament.

QUESTION. Can you plink on MKX with a hitbox? i saw the mk9 vid and they were plinking teleports/fireballs. Didn't that game have negative edge ? I would have to play with release check on??

@JohnGrimm The updating software doesn't recognize the hitbox, the usb drivers have been installed correctly i believe by holding down Home.

I thought plinking was directly related to the SF system, where if you press 2 buttons quickly enough in succession, you'll always get the "hardest" button, which is how a lot of players do 1 and 2-frame links. So I don't think it has to do with Negative Edge, nor do I think you can do it in MKX, regardless of your controller.

Are you connecting on a USB 2.0 port? For some reason, that's the only way it'll be recognized. USB 3.0 won't work.

Be patient with the installation process. It can take quite a while for your PC to fully install it. Just make sure you always hold down the home button when plugging the hitbox into (the USB 2.0 port of) your PC.

getting an xbox one in october (gears 4 bundle) also want to get KI - definitive edition. does it support hitboxes?

as long as you get the xbox one hitbox it will work with KI

does anyone know if the new hitbox come with transparent plexis or not?
