I dunno for some reason I never really have a problem with peadick. Ms. Fortune's head if used right can obliterate any peaphallus. At least ones that I've come across.
I always get really frustrated trying to do directional combos. I can get Cerebella's "Ultimate Showstopper" to work once out of every two dozen times.
I'm using a 360 gamepad and everything, so why is it so difficult?
Cause you're using a 360 gamepad

Yeah, if you're using the 360 controller's d-pad, then ashxu isn't being some fight stick elitist or anything - it's really bad for anything sensitive. You'd likely be better off using the thumbstick (if that's even possible, I have no experience with controllers in this game myself).
if you're having trouble with cerebella's 360 grab you can input the 360 while dashing or jumping to make it easier.
[QUOTE=ashxu;42061016]Cause you're using a 360 gamepad[/QUOTE]
I bought this game to a friend and before I made sure every single command in the game was doable with a basic 360 gamepad, including the Cerebella ultimate. It's perfectly possible to input all the commands in the game with a gamepad, even though it's not as comfortable as with an arcade stick.
Speaking of 360 gamepads you may want to configure it like this if you have difficulties :
Light Punch : B
Medium Punch : Y
High Punch : RB
Light Kick : A
Medium Kick : X
High Kick : LB
Macro 1 : LT
Macro 2 : RT
Set one or both macros to A+B.
This is the most optimal configuration for gamepads because it allows you to enter all the P+P or K+K commands without twisting your hand around. The default config for 360 gamepads is terrible.
Well using kb/pad is fine but there are some weaknesses. After getting over the initial migration phrase, I can't go back to using my Madcatz fightpad:

[QUOTE=Cuon Alpinus;42035890]Other character references include but are not limited to:
VALENTINE
-Sheena (Tales of symphonia)
and those are just color pallet references[/QUOTE]
Valentine also has a color pallet that resembles Haruko's Nurses outfit from FLCL

Some day I was tired of playing fighters with a gamepad and went straight for an Arcade Stick which was bundled with Soul Calibur V. Never went back.

Arcade sticks are just so much more fun imo
Is it weird I use the stick on my ps3 controller?
[QUOTE=Cuon Alpinus;42061394]Arcade sticks are just so much more fun imo[/QUOTE]
Agreed. Nothing like playing with an arcade stick while playing any fighting game really.

Curse this country of mine that can't except fight sticks/arcade sticks into society.
I'm so pissed off about the fact that the thumb stick on GC controllers don't recognise the diagonals.
I was so confused when none of the quarter-circles worked while I was being decimated by the AI.

Use Joy2Key and map it to the keyboard controls.

Really? What adapter are you using?
[QUOTE=reevezy67;42085203]Use Joy2Key and map it to the keyboard controls.[/QUOTE]
Im using a Mac to play and I can't find a Joy2Key alternative for it.
[QUOTE=Sonic4Ever;42085638]Really? What adapter are you using?[/QUOTE]
Some sketchy-ass (probably chinese) adapter I've gotten really cheap off ebay, it works well so I didn't suspect anything wrong with it.

How does it work well if it doesn't recognize diagonal inputs?
LOL
I was fighting someone and I got a Happy Birthday with Cerebella's Diamonds are Forever (Happy Birthday is when you KO two characters at once) by accident.
You get the achievement and the game laughs at you
Ashzu: LOOOOL
senpusha: ASHZU
senpusha: YOU FUCKER
senpusha: AHAHAHA
senpusha: that was amazing
Ashzu: how rude
Ashzu: game laughed
senpusha: yeah
senpusha: I heard that

It's made by APM
I have not tried it with Skullgirls yet though.

See if the diagonals work on your analog stick, if it works then I can fully blame this adapter.
The D-pad beneath the analog stick works, but that thing is the worst.

What were you playing that you didn't even notice the missing inputs?

A happy birthday isn't when you KO 2 characters at once, it's just so long as you're hitting two characters on-screen at the same time.
Actually getting a Happybirthday KO is amazing

I'm pretty sure the SG birthday achievement is from KOs only, because I've gotten plenty of 2 character hits/combos and still don't have my achievement.
If you live in Oceania and still play Skullgirls, make sure you participate in the [url=http://steamcommunity.com/groups/SGAUTZ/discussions/0/846963710933082279/]Skullbats Tournament[/url] next Friday! (All details in the link)
It's not really a serious tournament but it's still pretty fun and gives you a good idea of where you stand in the region if you want to put it that way.
All skill levels are welcome but you should probably at least have a basic grasp of the game (Do all the tutorials and know one combo)
We got a pretty good turnout today. We had 13 participants (Down from 18 or so because people were late/forgot to enter)
[editline]7th September 2013[/editline]
Also the [url=http://skullgirls.com/forums/index.php]Skullheart forums[/url] are back online. It's still picking up steam but nonetheless it should be your go to source for Skullgirls discussion.
I haven't played Skullgirls in a while because of KOF. I should probably start playing it again to get ready for the tourney.
Maybe I can win at least one match this time.
