Can't go back to pad now

>>386125275
Yeah. I have that fightstick actually. I'm transitioning over to the fightstick fulltime for the most part, but some games I just prefer pad.

Fightstick:
SNK Games
Street Fighter
Anime FIghters
Marvel vs Capcom 1/2

Pad:
Marvel vs Capcom 3
Tekken
Anything else


The FightStick really helps me for strict games like the ones SNK make. The older SNK games have some really tight execution that I just can't do on Pad consistent. Games after 2009 are more casual and make fightsticks somewhat nonexistent because of the execution barrier being lowered.

>>386126515
If you use custom binds on tekken prepare to be looked down on. Not that you should let someone pressure you to play the "right" way because that's a scrub mentality.

Fuck yeah I've got a fightstick

I have a $20 WWE Madcatz fightstick (same as a regular SF4 Madcatz fightstick but it had wrestlers on it until I removed the face decal. Then I swapped the joystick and buttons for Sanwa parts.

I have a fight stick, a pad, and a hitbox. Fight me.

Keyboard masterrace.

>>386126723
Looks like Rydia from FFIV but I could be wrong.

>>386126692
I do use them and I could care less what so fuck says. There are people who use them on stick too, especially in Street Fighter. Pros to be more specific. I remember a Viper player getting hate because he had a micro he used to do rapid seismos consistent on stick.

Hm, I don't use them a lot though. It's mainly for characters with weird move placement, like, having a move on Square and Circle (or a third button like Kasumi's Tiger/Taunt). And I used it for characters with EX moves. In Marvel I use it to wave dash and such.

>>386125275
yes i own pick related
do all sticks feel this shoddily made ?

>>386127083
Yeah I use custom binds out the ass on tekken. I have 1+2 3+4 1+4 2+3 bound on shoulder buttons and even have 3+4 bound on my right analogue stick so o can be more consistent with isw. (King is best waifu)
I was at a tourney and a really good player tried talking shit because I had button binds and he didn't (he was on stick) So I gave him my controller in a casual and bet he couldn't do a rolling death cradle first time. He couldn't do it at all.

>>386127402

Don't have a PS4 but I'm curious to see if someone made some ghetto adapters for it to work.

Is your model an original? I know there are many USB rip-offs but I'm not sure their quality compares to the real deal (especially the D-pad, which is what I'm interested in)

An old Madcatz Round One TE and a Horrible VLX Kuro. Currently in the process of modding the TE with custom artwork and Plexi etc but already added a ps360+ last year. Might upgrade to a Brooks UFB in the future. Don't how to use PS for shit though so it's a slog.

Built mine by spending like 15/20 bucks on parts

I do. And I even switched the square gate for an Octagonal one

But the transition has been painful. I'm just an average player on pad, but I know someone worse than me when I see them.

Playing on a stick, I can't even beat a low difficulty CPU. It feels tremendously difficult to just go from pressing a punch to a kick (standard 8 button layout/mapping)

Maybe I need to rebind everything or some shit. I know people will just say "grind it out" but shit man, I'm just a dude trying to have fun and I already took hundreds of losses learning on a pad to get to an average level.

But when I look up the prices on some of these, it's really scary, especially since I don't know much about them AND I have to try them first since I might end up not even liking them.
Can I please get some recommendations and hopefully something not too expensive and beginner-friendly ? Thanks !

>>386127854
It'll be cheaper to mod the parts to modern sanwa, hori or seimutsu instead of buying a whole new stick with the same parts. It's very easy to do and cheap too. Of course if you want different box shape and design then I understand. Next time get a stick with a swappable face plate and you are good to go.

>>386141910
At this point, preference

>>386141910
To fight. More accurately, to fight correctly.

Fightan games are made for Japanese arcades first and consoles second. Arcades use sticks with square gates. It only makes sense to buy the equipment it was designed to be played with.

Sure you can "get by" with a standard controller, but that's like saying I can also write with my feet. It may technically get the job done, but it will never have the proper finesse or legibility as writing normally.

>>386141768
Literally anything with sanwa parts and a quality PCB. If you're on a bit of a budget, either make your own from wood or whatever or get the mayflash that was mentioned earlier and replace everything with sanwa parts and a ps360+ (works on both ps and xbox, might be a better option now i don't know)

>>386142087
>Fightan games are made for Japanese arcades first and consoles second.
not really in the modern age. the only advantage that a stick really has is ease of negative edge inputs, and even then, controllers can do it even easier with some button remapping

There isn't really a fighting game since 1997 that's easier with stick. It has nothing to do with finesse or anything.

>>386142087
yeah thats why plenty of pros use pads

>>386142087

Weren't there two people in Top 8 at EVO who used controller? Smug is also one of the best players in America, scaring even Japanese players, and he uses a fucking Xbox 360 controller. It's really all about playing what you're comfortable with.

>>386142714
>The only game with a significant amount of pad pros is tekken

I will never understand that. I specifically bought my first stick FOR Tekken 7. There are just too many up or down diagonals that you have to get out quickly and reliably for it to work well on pad. I have the Bone pad and it's shit for those inputs, but even my old PS3 one still gave me trouble. I get them almost every time on stick.

>>386127773
There's a USB adapter from Raphnet that lets you use normal Saturn controllers but only one PS4 fighter works with it and that's Under Night [st]

That might just be because they do tournaments on arcade machines.

>>386142714
Japan and Korea are notorious for arcades over home consoles. There is a reason fucking Monster Hunter kept getting only handheld releases, because noone fucking had a console there. Korea has PC bangs and arcades.

>>386125275

>>386143359
Don't go cheap, you'll just be wasting your money. Quality fight sticks are built to last, cheap ones will give out on your in a few months. That said it depends on what you mean by "cheap". RAP4s are $130-150 new, they're the basic entry model. There's no reason to put down $300+ on one unless you're going to EVO and even then it's largely overkill.

That stick is expensive. But I like the internals, really clean. Also the design reminds me of cooler master cases.

>>386142812
>that you have to get out quickly
This is specifically the argument for playing tekken on a pad. A d-pad returns to neutral a lot faster than a sanwa stick, making k-backdashing and ewgfs and stuff a little quicker. Korean myoungshin sticks return to neutral much faster than a sanwa, lots of people prefer them for tekken and to a lesser extent other fighting games

>>386143695
Is that why Koreans dominate the Tekken scene?

>>386142714
>The only game with a significant amount of pad pros is tekken.

and SFV.

Why are the sticks always on the left when most people are right handed? Shouldn't they be on the right side since that's where you need more precision?

>>386143584
Thanks!
Can you go down in price if you do a costum and is it hard?

>>386144128
there are 6 to 8 buttons to press on the right with strict timing. there's one joystick on the left. which one requires more precision? if you are messing up your directional inputs you are DEFINITELY messing up your buttons.

I bought a fightstick for Skullgirls because my friends and I have been playing online and i'm sick of losing :(

Playing on a keyboard isn't that hard but my hands get tired and the keys are really stiff (MX Clears) so it's harder to execute combos. I'm getting better now with my QANBA carbon but the stick movement still kinda eludes me because the movements are so much more dramatic

>>386142843

A Qanba Q1 with Sanwa buttons and a JLF with oversized actuator/2lb spring.

A box I drilled holes in and stuffed with seimitsu buttons and the stick from the Qanba.

An NES Edge joystick I shoved a 4lb spring into for fun.

>>386145751
depending on the model quanba's do come with original sanwa joysticks. so you might already know how one feels. what's your model?

>>386126003
obrigado, doutor

Have a TE stick and built a hitbox. I prefer the hitbox so I just keep the stick around for when other people come over.

>>386145968
well either way, it's going to be a transition for me because now my LEFT hand is going to be handling movements. I haven't seen many with the orientation like a keyboard. Also, anything more than a quartercircle/shoru seems hard as fuck to pull off on a keyboard, and I couldn't see a hitbox being any better.

It's fine though, I'm getting used to it more and more, I just need to practice with it a bit more.

>>386146247
I don't have my fightstick with me rn (in the process of moving in), but I'm pretty sure the carbon I have is the QANBA joystick and buttons

>>386146141
i have an oversized actuator as well (1mm kowal) and it's nice. didn't like it combined with a 2lb spring however. too slow for fighting games. it works better with the regular spring for me.

oh what the hell, i'll take a quick pic of my q4 in a sec.

>>386146141
what difference does the actuator and spring do? did they improve your play in any way

>>386125275
qanba q4 with ls-32

>>386145319
Yeah it is really cool to make one. Some people want that type of controller professionally made and they don't feel comfortable with making their own or simply don't have the time to invest into it. I've considered the possibility of making one but when I already have a good functioning pre-built one I stop caring.

>>386143584
When are they gonna fucking update that list

>>386146403
you can just cross your arms. There are players that do that
Assuming that you use WASD controls and quarter circle is just S then D then punch
Shoryuken should be D the S then S+D punch

>>386146626
shorter throw with over-sized actuator, a heavier spring makes the stick return to neutral faster.

>The only game with a significant amount of pad pros is tekken
NRS games are dominated by pad. Killer Instinct is also almost all pad. The best american SF players in the world currently use pad, and the best SF player in the world period plays on pad. Lots of anime players use pad.

It's literally just preference, moron. And this is coming from someone who uses an Obsidian.

>>386146890
There's no point in updating it. There's only 2 brands that still make decent sticks these days... Hori, Qanba and that's it.

Qanba for Sanwa ($200 or more for Sanwa parts)
Hori for Kuro ($150 or more for Kuro)

These 2 brands also make the best budget sticks.

The alternative would be to go custom, which would be way more expensive unless you do it yourself.

>>386140626
I like it is just seems very wide

>>386147030
>shorter throw with over-sized actuator
an oversized actuator also changes the corridors for directional actuation. it's easier to hit diagonals (2 switches simultaneously), but hitting straights like up, down, left, right in turn gets a bit trickier as those sectors will shrink accordingly.

>>386149152
I mean the plungers to fill in the holes are like a dollar for two, but they aren't the prettiest to look at so you'd probably want to get custom art and plexi at that point. So yeah, I feel you, they do start getting expensive pretty fast when you can't just be happy with stock

>>386149308
Just trickier for me because I've used gamepads all my life. It;'s basically typing so your fingers have to be more dextrous to really make use of them. But they are more precise than sticks.

I'm going to make an unpopular opinion that screw in buttons are better than snap ins

>>386145030
I don't have a problem hitting buttons with either hand because I'm a good typist. Movement requires you to be really accurate though.

>>386134093
There's also a switch on the side to disable it. Actually, a lot of retail sticks have this function.

>>386125275
I have a pretty mediocre cheap stick that's basically just collecting dust now. Used to play with it, but switched to playing fightan with my keyboard. Thinking about getting a hitbox if I ever got extra money to throw away.

>I'm going to make an unpopular opinion that screw in buttons are better than snap ins
How so?

>>386148834
How long have you had it?

I just don't want to get one of these and it starts pulling an Evo 2015 Grand Finals after I've had it for a while.

I only have Xbone so my options for sticks are limited.

>>386149994
snapins tend to be the more popular option but the retention clips snap over time if you're not careful.
Had to go with seimitsu since sanwa didn't provide the same level of colour options for the 24mm screwins. Don't feel like I'm missing out from sanwa

>>386149994
For me, as someone who likes to switch out buttons somewhat frequently, screw-ins are much better since the tabs on a snap-in wear out a lot when you remove it (it's not uncommon for the tabs to break on the first instance of removal).

That's the only reason though, and I'm not the guy you replied to.

Twisting the controller diagonally works just fine fot me.

>>386150548
Sporting it, i meant.

>>386148441
I don't have that model but one with the same design. It's hard enough just to reach over to the two right buttons. You would have to try to go well out of your way to even hit start. There's no way you'll do it by accident.

>>386153452
There are some cases where you may want to hit up with your right hand. Once you get used to it you don't even think about it anymore.

>>386125275

No, I'm neurotypical.

>>386153170
Why do you think buttons are better than a joystick in your opinion?

>>386153452
Comfy way to use up and it's press never held. 4 direction layout with your fingers only would not be as comfortable.

>>386126692
Like binding 1+2 to r1 or something? Why is it looked down on?

>>386154283
Because directional inputs are only digital and pressing a button is significantly faster than a stick activation. Give it time you'll be a fool to be using anything but a hitbox.

>>386153452
Tell me which finger you use on PC to jump

>>386153452
I wondered this too but I think it has to do with jump usually being less used than the others in most fighting games. Doing shit like a half circle just requires a drum of ring, middle, index finger rather than trying to get your thumb on the bottom button involved with the downward press. To me it adds better visual representation to quarter and half circles and other various motions. Other than 360s or down up charges there's not as many specials that utilize up. You tend to only jump once every once in a while as well whereas you may dash, move, and crouch far more often.

>>386153170
I kinda want to move to a hitbox set up but I can never get double qcf down, with a stick it is just so smooth

Hori VLX

Heard a lot of good things about Qanba Obsidian.

>>386158628
For 200 pick up a qanba obsidian or hori's equivalent stick, forget what it's called. Heard good things about the Hori but I can vouch for the Obsidian. Well built, comfortable, and stock parts that are perfect out of the box. I don't plan on modding it though and I'm not sure about how easy it is to do so, so you might want to check first if you're interested in slapping your waifu on there or something.

Why the fuck

>>386125275
The buttons on that SUUUUUCKKK DIIIIIICK

>>386159178
Why? I like them.

>>386159360
They feel stupid cheap to me.

>>386159503
Fair enough. I never used anything else so I can't compare but I really like how sensitive they are.

>>386125275
No because they're expensive and I probably wouldn't even use it that much.
I'd still like one though for the novelty factor.

It's different, but when you think of it as spacebar/jump, it helps. I used to do WASD as well but the main advantage with hitbox layout is that you have a finger in all 4 movement directions at all time, instead of moving your middle finger between up and down.

I don't think its objectively better, but key presses is all I know. I tried learning stick and it was just completely foreign. I could do everything but it just wasn't clicking.

>>386153956
That's a nice anime mod. Where do you get those?

>>386143584
is the Hori EX 2 really that difficult to mod?

Is the obsidian worth it? I have eightarcs ivory stick from the ps3/xbox days. Not sure if the upgrade is worth it

>>386125657
It depends on the character though. Some characters are definitely easier to learn on a stick, like Zato.

Print your own artwork and buy the parts.

My thighs are getting sweaty from having this fucker on my lap all day.

I got a SV4:TE from CEX for £50, works like a charm. Had to replace the stick gate to a hex, though.

>>386129523

I've been using mine for two years without issue.

>>386134079

I wanted one of those for a long time but got sick of waiting for it to actually be in stock.

Have you tried being less fat?

Pads and sticks. The Dreamcast CvS1 pad is neat since it has its box with a bunch of cards featuring Capcom characters and their movesets.

Did you try taking your thighs off?
