Use your right hand thumb for runoooh. I got my stick just now, so I can say stick (even though i'm complete garbage with it right now, I can't even hit autocombos haha. ) you use your left hand for the run button or what.
This. Where's the "both" option?D-Pad/Analog stick weird mixture.
It's odd, but I don't even know what I'm using sometimes. I jump with the analog and do moves like forceballs, spins, spears, ect. with the d-pad only. I should probably video tape it...it's all habit now.
BTW, it sounds difficult to use a stick with the buttons being so spread out.
I'm pretty sure most of us are trained like this. Forceballs with the analog helllls no.D-Pad/Analog stick weird mixture.

Do whatever your comfortable with, but yes, what Dubs said is the "default" way.I read ArcadeEd's post where he thought it was the left hand and I totally belived him.
Stick only makes wayyy more sense but damnnn. So much hand moving this is going to take me a while to get used to the reaction lol
edit: k so I'm kinda used to it. But kungs spin and ermacs tele lift is a hard motion for some reason for me to hit every time...god I was solid on the d-pad.
I had the spin inf varients down! now im a newbie.
*puts condom in ballcap*Dpad for me, the analog on the 360 is too slow for me. I would prefer a stick, but I need the cash, donations are welcome .
Be patient. Its gonna be hard. And for that reason, I have been very frustrated as well. It sucks. But I know in the long run, it will be for the best. I am just trying to get myself to a decent level before I start playing wit some of the higher level players from this site. I did take it online when I first got it, and I won my first 18 matches, but they were against average XBL scrubs. SO nothing to brag about, but I playing good enough not to lose.omg tim seriously. This shit pisses me off, I'm about to pick up my controller every ten minutes, cause my internet is getting set up tomorrow, and I just can't see myself getting beat bad online.
and I miss competitive MK soooo badly. I only play my GF and she's decent, but she can't pull off 50% combos.
she'll beat you nubs tho.
Anyway, I've been sooo discouraged to keep starting the game over and over with the stick. I just have the dpad/analog game down so hard. After my internet gets set up tomorrow, i'm just not so sure if i'm going to be able to use the stick =[.
the temptation will just be too much to pick up the controller and join some games and kick some ass.
How much solid arcade stick play does it take to master that shit?
It didn't take me toooooo long to master the controller, but i'm just soooo used to using my left trigger for run cancels, and pushing LK for reptiles dash is a PAIN! I miss his dash so much, I can only do 4 sets of punches w/ uppercut if im lucky with it.
So on my list to improve?? run canceling x1000000
cancel aahp walk ins.
tele slams i got down kind of. but damn using my thumb for run only seems like im wasting such a well-trained MK button masher!!!
No way, thought I was the only one who did that.D-Pad/Analog stick weird mixture.
