WEEK OF UMVC3 - Open Lobby Day 2

[@PawsOfFate]

Yo Max, these are the button layout for lobbies on XBox. Basic Lobby Function Buttons: X = Spectate / Stop Wactching Y = Battle / Stop Fighting A = View a player's License (Shows Rank, win rate, stability and all that jazz) B = Leave the lobby Message Buttons: Left Button = "Great Fight!" Left Trigger = "Leaving Lobby" Right Button = "Bring It On!" Right Trigger = "Good Game" (Next is only available to pad players) Right Stick Button = "No Way!" Left Stick Button = "Okay!"

[@TrueUnderDawgGaming]

I love how ever since Final Fight everyone uses Rocket Raccoon.

[@jackalhunt1]

The Zergkiller 2 vs Itsukine fight was seriously tense. Low rank fights can be so fun to watch because neither player can finish their plates and the games are usually insanely close.

[@Okamii007]

Max that Dante vs Vergil fight where he only had a couple thousand HP left was AMAZING

[@TriezeXion]

Superb gameplay for the last fight Max. I had to watch it again before the end of the vid.

[@DeliriumOnSiren]

This has got to be the best thing i've heard all week!

[@dsi7000]

You sir,have given me inspiration to keep playing this game using that controller.I don't play online,but its nice to know some combos on it here and there.

[@TheSeelieCourtier]

Methinks that we're going to see an Assist Me for Zero soon thanks to these battles. Personally though, I want to see one for Hsien Ko and/or Morrigan.

[@JoLiKMC]

17:28 - Dat Bass palette for Zero. Cool stuff.

[@ytgodzilla]

Awesome!!! I like this a bit better than the online warrior vids. Only because you see more of a variety of characters. Do you have any advice about playing while under lagg. I swear If I'm not moving in slow motion I am not even holding the controller it laggs so much. PS3 - verizon fios Keep em coming. As allways Thanks:

[@djdtor]

I wish you had a facebook page to announce open lobbies, I don't have a Twitter! Waiting for a Soul Calibur Open Lobby!

[@Reyahwind1]

I know it's hard to do- I know I couldn't do it!- but I'd love to hear more real time commentary where you're explaining what you're thinking and why you're doing certain things mid match. I appreciate that it'd be difficult, is just really interesting to hear a professional fighting gamer tell us their thought process.

[@JoshCobra89]

Max you gotta be at EVO especially for commentary and tournament scene I believe it will be real fun!

[@fforblack]

I noticed that too...my guess is that the net code on the XB version isn't as good...

[@JaneViolet_]

Hey Max, when/if you eventually do the PS3 open lobby, can you please make a video a bit in advance saying exactly when the lobbies will be on? I really don't want to miss it.

[@ShinigamiCustoms]

That Dante vs. Vergil fight with Gaulin was EPIC!

[@mrfroboto1]

those are the wisest last words I have ever heard in any video ever

[@ryonalionthunder]

It's heat of the moment stuff that's probably why you notice it during live. Wouldn't worry about it too much though.

[@mikejonesnoreally]

Great video Maximillian please keep the new matches coming! I hope the lag improves for you. I don't think I'll ever move because for some reason even though we just downgraded our internet I will only have lag maybe one in fifty games and even then it will be a spot of it, it won't make the game unplayable.

[@AvengerKit]

JESUS JESUS JESUS ~ That was the only line that you made while panic. LOL

[@GamesAreAHobby]

So cool that you read my message about SC Max :D i'll probably be on it mainly after the 28th this month. got alot on my plate right now unfortunately so i wont be playing til then. btw, i main Z.W.E.I.

[@YoshiONE2ONE]

he used an Xbox Live Vision Camera. They allow you to make whatever pic you take into ur gamerpic. So he found an image of Cloud and took it.

[@jayfeezyfee]

@miles923 have you already recorded all of these, or are you doing a new lobby each day?

[@TheShieldsMD]

I think I remember him testing SC's netcode on it, too.

[@SSCooler]

8:02 awesome idea max! i should try this

[@RandoStuff]

Dang it Max! You missed an amazing sale for SSF4:AE for the PC. I think it was like 10 dollar or something super cheap!

[@soupofkings]

I hope you do one of these for SCV. And I hope I'm not at work when you open it up XD

[@pointynives]

its kind of gutting i will never get to go in one of these lobbies

[@MarcM47]

There is nothing wrong in sending him a message to let him know that he is great and help us in our fighting games but I agree with you that the whole life stories is not nessesary.you got my thumbs up lol.

[@Sasoribankai]

What is the Strider Alt based on? It looks like Guy from Final Fight/Super Street Fighter 4

[@GiodyneSTG]

ohh... im average you can say... im only a 8th lord. ranked is usually my thing but i go on lobbies with friends at times.... do you use pad or arcade?

[@MrCONBO]

Damn max, I forgot how legit your dante is, you handled lv.3 vergil like a champ

[@zidane5527]

Max do you livestream? If so where. I'm a giant fan and a subscriber. Plus I would like to watch/mod in your stream if you have one.

[@violentpimple]

I really think you should be the commentator for Evo this year. I could see it now everyone yelling in the crowd screaming YO VIDEO GAMES everytime something crazy happens.

[@biohazard724]

Yes he does. I don't know if he owns this for it but sometimes he can be seen playing one of the CoDs on it.

[@Mugen123456789]

Hsien Ko is very good. She has great range projectiles and block strings.

[@DiscoCokkroach]

Man, felt like I was watch DMC3 at the end of your 1st match, Max :P

[@sjcodan]

Could we get one of these for the SOULCALIBRISTAS?

[@ThirtyLoveTennis32]

omg when is the next lobby! i wanna play!

[@Rez996]

usually on live it's pretty stable unless someone has a constantly fluctuating connection. And I have seen it happen more often in lobbies than regular matches, no idea why though, just an observation. For example sake, most of the time Max is playing online (at least the ones he records for us) it's rather smooth with very rare hiccups, but with these lobby vids it's going nuts.

[@EmptyThrone]

I agree, however... he does seem to have some slight connection issues just while playing, so if he keeps the same net connection AND tries to stream it will be unplayable for him most likely. :[

[@Smok3Knight]

are you going to be doing this all day today?

[@ManyAGiggle]

Max: "I have to stop being a loyalist." (Uses Dante, Doom and Strider...)

[@Sx2Kirby]

What's with these Vergil's not using spiral swords?

[@Tetsaga]

day 2? This is continued from day 1 footage...

[@nibelung34343]

epic commentart from max i wanted to bring mt thor fire brand pw but i coulnd get in

[@UltraZangeifZ]

Man, those where some EPIC fights.

[@RealNDY]

It's more exciting to watch unusual characters i agree. Fightijng games just work differently ^^ you choose a character and you stick with it since you know how to use him and learning another character is really difficult. While i agree that wesker is really good and reall easy to pick up i doubt that everyone switched to them most people just wanted to use him after getting blown up by him early on or like the trenchcoat look

[@macdrizzae]

God, whenever I watch his videos I get a strong urge to play UMVC3, but then I do, and lose 20 straight ranked matches, and cry myself to sleep D:

[@jwilsthem.c3780]

Iceman is dead? i can't believe i didn't notice his face in the backround now i'm sad

[@linkind21]

Can u PLEASE tell me how you got that cloud strife gamer pic I would appreciate it

[@TenNoOkami]

itsukine's Spencer is top tier! But his rocket Racoon needs more dicipline! XD These matches were actually pretty fun to watch, i bet the guys on XBoX live that got there felt lucky and happy xD

[@TEEN1DOL]

First match at 2:10 . Before that it's just messages all saying the EXACT same thing.

[@londonbon]

Max what time do you do these lobbies?

[@AvatarRoku22]

do a vid of you learning uncommon characters like Spiderman, Felica, Hsien-Ko, X-23, Viewtiful Joe, Thor, Firebrand, or Viper!! I think it would be really cool if you made a mini series on you learning to play new characters. Might inspire some people to branch out and try new characters. right now im tryign to learn felicia cause her pressure is outrageous like this so max can see it!!

[@sadv3]

I use Hulk/Chris/Sent in UMvC3 lol. After seeing Bum's vid. I used to use Hulk/Haggar/Sent in Vanilla.

[@corgath33]

I love Max's reactions! "OH NO--OH JEEZ JEEZ!!" Lol!

[@MrGuy84]

Don't know why you're worried about your team composition with Doom-Dante-Strider. Doom and Dante are both great characters, and Strider's both a great assist and absolutely deadly in lvl 3 X-Factor. The only part of that team all that far down the tier list is Strider, and you do so well with him I don't think switching him out would really get you all that much.

[@shadowhacker190]

He would do it but I recall him saying he doesn't have the knowledge or equipment in order to do that. At least from prior videos his said this.

[@Solvandus]

I love Max's reactions! "OH GEEZUS-GEEZUS!!"

[@goldennaruto1]

It would be a great idea for Max to dedicate videos to reading messages

[@SoulGizmo]

You hit my message right on the spot i was like why cant i get in.

[@TwinSnakes89]

Connection always plays up when I'm trying to complete a combo but when I'm being juggled within a 1000000000000000000 hit combo its fine and doesn't give me a break. Internet Y U H8 ME!!?

[@Anomalouzs]

OPEN LOBBY IS THE SHIZNIT FOR RIZLL. MOAR LIKE EVERY 5 SECONDS OPEN LOBBY. SO FUN!! WAHHH!.

[@s1nringleader]

Max are you going to make a lobby for the PS3? :(

[@allenp6]

When does this lobby go online?

[@BRayBillyRay]

Maxxxx, please post on Twitter when you have an open lobbyyy!

[@CNote317]

That last fight went in. Close call max. Lol

[@NappaCarl]

Aw man i cant watch part 2 on my phone. :(

[@YoshiONE2ONE]

Max, to say good game, its whatever you have the Left Trigger set to on ur stick!

[@1ButtonDash]

great commentary, Max u should try and commentate at EVO marvel

[@TenNoOkami]

It happens to almost everyone xD the online part always causes this kinda jeeters, burrowing is awesome to stop many cheap things and time out some strategies ;P

[@HaVickChiLD]

@gotemwet wolverine isn't trendy? I see him online almost as much as wesker. =/

[@CBOYxMITCHELL]

OKAY. I LOST IT @7:25 Max: THE PIPOOO

[@biohazard724]

He did last year during pools

[@Redgohan147]

max you should do open lobby more often your live narration on others matches are very entertaining ps could you do it for the ps3 as well we psn guys are dying to play against you

[@TenNoOkami]

Damn youtube and his new 'enter posts instead of linebreak'! XD But yeah just wanted to add, keep up the positive attitude, the respect and the good work, the fighting game community needs more of it ;3

[@sadv3]

How do you get those rainbow titles?

[@TenNoOkami]

Well you got out in bad situations too, with Rocky already popping in against x-factored people, and i tottaly saw your attempt to trap-hyper at one point and getting a Rock n' Roll instead cause of cross up xD i personally like Rocky's crouching heavy to wild ripper, best grounded range for him(to combo off of), instant overheads with really low air medium to S do good too ^^ you seen like a nice player, i'd tottaly add and play with you, but i'm a PSN user damn xP

[@mikejonesnoreally]

I'm gonna' second the You should! Not everyone is cheap either, some of us do just play for fun and because we love fighing games.

[@TheLocalman2012]

wait, what state is Max in? cali?

[@thehitmanzack]

Max, you should do live commentary for fighting game tournaments. Also... YOU SHOULD DO OPEN LOBBY ON SOUL CALIBUR 5!!!

[@biohazard724]

Wait are you talking to me or jangamex? I'm confused

[@dudetheguyman]

Stream Monster tag? Gotta get me one of those

[@USSPhoenix23]

how do you dash downwards after doom's air s?

[@drakelupton8502]

Leave it up to Max to chose what types of messages he wants guys.

[@EagleEye33]

It's a week of videos from that game. You'll notice each isn't him playing them game everyday and just showing 20 minutes of it. His commentary even cuts into the next video in some weeks.

[@TheTaekwondosam]

Max! you should go and commentate at a Wednesday night fights or maybe a bigger tournament! I think you, IFC YIPES, and Combofiend would make a great commentating team and I would definatly watch the entire stream!

[@exflashkick]

I love max, but when it comes to informative, quality fighting game commentary, I wouldn't pick anyone over UltraDavid.

[@e30leo]

does xbox always have these lag spikes? i play on ps3 and the connection is perfect 9 times out of 10. even on a 3 bar connection to another region, the input delay is still very manageable...i thought seeing as u pay for xbox live it would be better than psn...

[@Ultrox007]

I so want in on these matches O_O

[@ZenNeonRazor]

Lol btw Max when an assist gets caught the game starts to slow down soo much it always happens and i have no idea why but thats how it is.And about being a Loyalist if you played DMC3 you would have been using vergil too lol.

[@jarretteeno]

will u be doing any ps3???? i hope so

[@SCUB4Owl]

Max, do you have a PS3? I'd love to play with you.

[@SoapManpv]

max's strider always dominates!

[@MikeyNewJin]

For those unfamiliar with the "Jesus" that Max keeps saying just type "Bootleg Fireworks" into youtube's search bar and click on the first video that comes up.

[@StrykerShadow]

Week of UMVC3 - Open Lobby PS3?

[@DRaGZ141]

hahaha...Max said "a grip". That's how you know he's from SoCal.

[@meteor22]

It's ok to be a loyalist as long as your having fun. If you don't mind having your ass handed to you more times then you are winning because your using low tier characters that's fine. For most people they want to win. So they pick good characters. Stick to your guns Max. You make it work.

[@frontsquatenjoyer]

should i buy this game?????
