Racketeer Online FG matchfinder thread!

[ZenErik]

Mmm. I'd say my favorites are BBCSEx, P4A, SCV, SFxT. But I'll play, and get my ass kicked at, almost anything.

Oh, and I have Divekick too. I'm not sure which games have good online systems, but I hear that BBCP will have 64 player lobbies.

I think I'd rather focus first on who can show up each week and when, then have all those people list games they'd be interested in playing that week. Once we have a fair amount of 'committals' for the date/times, we take the top 2-4 aggregate titles listed by each player, confirm in this thread what those games will be and from there I will plot out the time slots for each of them.

So next week does Thursday Dec. 26th work for most? Would you rather do Tuesday (Christmas Eve) the 24th? Or are we baller enough to say "JUZFUCKIT" do Christmas Day, traditions & family be damned?

Once we have a date settled (we'll give it a few days to discuss and check schedules), we will see what games everyone is WILLING to play that week (not just games you own). From there I will take the top 2-4 games and list out a timetable in which they will be played.

My personal suggestions for games next week- SS4AE2012, BBCP, SC5. This gives us a ton of variety. We have the coverall in SF, the anime game in BB and 3D+ weapon-based in SC5. I will have no trouble pulling players locally to jump on stream for me in any games.

Have it it guys! Get me all the information asked for and we'll have oodles of easier times piecing this thing together!

Most weeks, I'm free Mon-Wed say 8-10PM EST.

There's no way I'd be around Christmas Eve.

The thing with BBCP is that it's not out in the US until March 26th. Not everyone imported. But BBCSEx may be an option if enough people still own it/have a desire to play it.

Ok, what dates/times work for you ZenErik? That is the more important discussion atm. We can discuss the BB version after dates that you can actually play are settled.

Next week Tuesday doesn't work for me. Wednesday through Sunday works fine for me though.

On just about any other week, Tuesday & Thursday are the best nights for me. Tuesday moreso.

I also picked up MVC2 before they took it off PSN, so add that to the list I have. I'm also willing to pick up anything as long as people here are going to be playing it.

Here is the thing.. People will start having busy schedules and there will be barely anyone showing up.. Also some people want to train in said game more before showing up on a live stream since there are always stream monsters critiquing. Every fight night we've had was always put on hiatus in one way or another.. It would get resurrected then put on hold again and so forth.. And you can't go wrong with SSFIV AE.. Most of the people here either play that or retro fighters already on sale, or older fighters.. Not many people here play the current stuff..

PS: No one here has BB CP except me but I am considered an anime/snk player.. I actually play on other FGC streams when I can..

[Aramonde]

I work from 3pm to 11:30pm through the weekdays and im off on the weekend. (sometimes we work on Saturday if we haven't met our quarterly goal)

This is what i'm saying. We've done it this way on racket - didn't work multiple times. Everyone will post availability, pick the games they want, you'll be set for 3 hours of fighting with 12 different guys...and 3 people show up. One of whom is Brad who has to stop every 8 minutes to go smoke.

The multiple games on the same night hasn't worked traditionally either.

It's yr call - you've resurrected this, i'm just trying to tell you how it's worked with this community. The best fighters in this community (the7k, sevin0seven, CD AGES, EvilRyu) have sporadic availability due to work, time zone differences, system availability, etc. The rest of us are very casual FG fans w/full-time jobs, wives, kids, alter-ego's and gambling addictions. We are probably above average fighters, but not beyond that. I'm telling you, if this is meant to be racket-centric, your best bet is to narrow down a top 10 list of games, announce the list and rotate them out every week.

in fairness to myself, I do have an e-cig now for Fight Nights.
