I played the shit out of third strike with Nightin from tb and a few friends on supercade, bought Skullgirls in early access and loved it, and also played SSFIV (trying again) but never thought about getting a fight stick. I've always used KB&M or my F310 Logitech budget controller and never found a problem until I started to get into the more intense play.
I stopped playing fighting games for a while, but have recently picked up and have been loving the Blazblue fighting games, all of the old king of fighter games, art of fighting and my personal favourites, samurai shodown v and ii AND Garou: Mark of the Wolves. Literally just been playing fighting games for hours on end the past few days, loving the level of detail that some of these games have as far as story, character development and overall joy of learning the game/mechanics that these games bring.
So, I was just wondering, what are your guys opinions on the best bang for your buck fight sticks around the $200 range? What ones do you use, if any? If not, do you guys play on Keyboard & Mouse or Controller?
Yo f310 is what I learned to play fighting games on too, and I also used to play with nightin in 3s, good times
Nowadays I play on a madcatz te round 2 (not te2) and I love it, but honestly the only things execution wise I felt I really improved on thanks to stick were plinks and kara inputs and stuff like that (which will be irrelevant for v most likely anyway). If you're going for a stick I'd recommend one of these since you can probably find one on the cheap, but sfv is probably gonna play fantastic on pad, which is an awful lot cheaper.
I've never used any other sticks but I'd have to imagine the q2 with a sanwa joystick and buttons would be just as nice
oh yeah

3s was what got me into fighting games on PC, man we had some fun trying to learn how to play on Supercade (funny story, I started on these forums when I was 11, am now 19 and I made friends here that have lasted me up until now. I talk to Nightin on Skype almost every day and he's apart of my close group of friends and knows about 10+ of my real life friends from Nova Scotia, Canada that we all game together with. I'm glad I decided to join the community when I did). Unfortunately now you have to use another program and we couldn't happen to get it to work, does anyone remember the current one?
My Q2 came to about $180 after shipping, and will arrive in two days from now. Apparently it comes with an octagon gate which is nice because I planned on switching from a square/circle, but realistically everything is 50% off right now on amazon.ca so I can pick up a full set of sanwa parts for around $50.
The F310 is brilliant, I actually got Nightin to pick one up as well and he uses it for Rocket League, Brawlhalla etc. Such a nice budget controller, I got mine brand new off a friend for $20 and it gets daily use on all genres of games.
Just now looking into SFV characters and am amazed at some of the designs. Who's your favourite so far?
I've been playing necalli, and on that note beta testing is open for the next three days, time to go play
oh yeah
Welp, finally preordered it.
After all the major beta periods ended like an idiot .-.
