Any fights break out because of this game?

[strangecity]

I noticed that the game's glitches can start fights. Somebody was losing to me once, he used the gambit glich with about 40 seconds left on the clock. He decided to leave after doing that, and i accidentally punched him in the back of the head. I know now that was wrong and I will try to control my temper in the future. But as you can clearly see he deservered it. Moving forward has anyone had a similar experience.

[Gasp]

how do you "accidentally" punch him in the head?

[strangecity]

thats what he security guard asked me as well. the important thing is the guy didn't press charges. i told the guy (who did the glitch) that it was an accident/ and im sticking to that story just in case i ever get sued.

Personal - Pretty recently (less than a year ago), I was at a local arcade that I used to go to as a kid to play Marvel, but I didn't understand shit about the game at the time. At this time, I was MUCH better (compared to my ~10-year-old-days, haha), and I knew what I was doing. I played MSP (the team I was attempting to learn at the time) against some guy's Santhrax (he sucked with it..badly).

After our first game, I had won, so I pressed Start and proceeded to see what I could do with his dead-body. I get pushed lightly on the side and handed a "Don't do that shit man. That's disrespectful." At first, I thought he was kidding, but then I saw his face. To be polite, I quickly replied with "I'm sorry, but everybody doesn't have a problem with it...my bad." He just shook his head. The next game, I landed a double-snap on his storm+commando, and proceeded to launch commando to death. After about 5 or so hits, He caught onto what was going on, and turned towards me, and proceeded to push me off the stick. He claimed I was cheap, and I shouldn't do those types of things (he described it as "things that gave him no chance to come back"). He was much older, and i didnt want to start anything, so I just replied to him with something like "You shouldn't be blindly calling your assists then. It's part of the game. Don't touch me again." He was an employee at the arcade, so he couldn't do anything more, due to risking being fired. That was the closest thing I've come to violence with the game.

Third Party - My friend, who attended a local SC3 tourney somewhere, told me there were Marvel casuals going on at the place as well. This one particular black dude played a low-tier team (all I got was Shuma was in it) against some guy who picked top-tier characters, and proceeded to completely destroy him. After the low-tier player won, the other player said somethign like "Lemme pick my real team", and proceeded to pick another top-tier team. He lost again. After the 2-0 win, the low-tier player got in his face and said some things like "YOU SUCK AT THIS GAME! JUST QUIT MARVEL!" Apparently, only seconds after, a beer bottle found its way cracking onto the low-tier-player's head, courtesy of the guy who just lost 0-2.

[Fir]

People I've played tend to walk away upon defeat.

However, will say that I've seen a fight over XvSF :7

[randomsuper]

people who actually get mad about something they consider cheap ALWAYS suck at the game, or can't do the things a better player can. no sense getting bent out of shape about that. i will say i have been known to get upset when i'm playing on a crap stick though. i'll break some shit at that point, but it's more of a frustration thing and not aimed at whoever i'm playing against.

[Radiant93]

hmm.. i've had the same experience, but i don't think this one's cheap though.. i was playing casuals at a local arcade, i had 14 straight wins on one guy and he finally won after that(15th game), felt like i was really getting tired. then i just walked away as if nothing happened. the next day, he was looking at me like he wanna kill me, you know... clenching fists, the like.

the thought is that he spent 15 tokens just for that and only one token for me. lol

[Deathfist]

A friend of mine got punched in my absence by someone else because he was getting his ass kicked at MvC2 once. Let me assure you, that if I was present that wouldn't have happened.

Nobody messes with or threatens me over MvC2 or any other game for that matter. If it happened, I'd walk over to the attendant, and have the person banned from the arcade.

This is only a set of theories, but the reasons why nobody messes with me are as follows...

1]We Canadians seem to be more laid back about everything than Statesmen.
-This is both a blessing and a curse because Canadians won't protect their civil liberties. If you don't protect them, they will be stolen from you by your government...
-Related to games, Violence against me has never happened over games. I was threatened once before, but I was like what then, 17, 18 or 19? I'm 30 now.

2]I have all kinds of disarming statements that I can use that slow the situation down.
-If you don't like the way I play, don't play me.
-If an opponent has a hard time defeating a strategy of mine, I'd be a fool to not use it.

3]I'm always trying to be polite, and that in and of itself has a disarming property.

4]My generally cheerful attitude when at the arcade

5]I'm black. Black people have an undeserved bad reputation, and are VERY intimidating. Especially when annoyed. I've noticed that when I look pissed, nobody fucks with me. Not unless they're also black, or are much bigger than me.

6]I demand that others treat me with respect, and demand of myself that I treat others the same way.
-I will violate this rule sometimes if someone else doesn't meet this simple demand, but this is rare.

7]If the person is on the machine, I view them as the owner of the machine. I must ask them if they want me to play against them before I do so. I expect the same courtesy from them [although these days it never happens. IMO, it should].
Besides, if they don't want to play me, chances are, they'll be off the machine soon anyways leaving it free for me to walk right in to use it.

Challenging me when I'm on the machine is essentially a right unfortunately. MvC2 isn't like Virtual-On where you can hit your start button to accept the challenge of your opponent, or reject it making them to play the computer instead of you. However, there is a flip side to the coin....

8]I as an individual, can refuse to challenge someone in any video game on ANY grounds I see fit. This means that if I'm facing someone that I always beat, that always complains and is always rude to me when I beat them, I can strip them of the privilege of my challenges by not putting my coin in the machine.
-This is even deadlier than if I was playing him because instead, I can observe his strategy and figure him out by observing him. Now I know holes that I wouldn't have detected in the stressful situation of actual game play. Holes that are in addition to the holes I already know about. The rapes would become even MORE awful. And because they are less frequent [I'm not playing him as often] he is denied the opportunities to get pissed enough at me to resort to violence.

It is for these reasons why violence never is perpetrated against me when I play. I just have too many peaceful ways to disarm the situation without risking serious injury to myself or most likely, my opponent from violence.

All you need to prevent violence against you at the arcade is a change in mentality, and to respect others.
-Always ask for permission before playing someone
-Refuse to challenge whiners. They're no fun to play against.
-Never act rude or act arrogantly [even if you are]
-IF someone threatens you, call an observing player to get the attendant, and talk to the player in the attendant's presence. Let him know that if he attempts to harm you he'll get kicked out of the arcade forever, you'll probably be back a few days later, and neither legal or physical mercy will be shown to him during or after the fight.

[Jin Cena]

The closest that I witnessed was between this black guy and some Asian guy. The black guy was using Juggz/Cable/Psylocke and the Asian was using Magz/Cable/Psylocke. Black guy wins game 1 pretty easily. Asian wins game 2 with a nice comeback.

Black: "That's bullshit. You got lucky"
Asian: "Yeah right, nigga"
Black: "Nigga?"...
Asian: <backs away from the machine>
Black: "That doesn't even sound right coming from you"
:rofl: :lol:

[shoultzula]

I tried to fight someone once. Back when the game first came out, cable\IM\iceman all on projectile type was too much for me to handle. So I called the guy a cheap ass bitch and told him to step outside lol. He never did but looking back @ it now, that was kind of funny.

I also threatened to kick this others guys ass because he thought the gambit glitch was acceptable gameplay. I told him if he wasted another one of my quarters on that stupid glitch, that i'd shove my hand down his throat and pull up the first piece of matter I got my hands on. He never did it again :rofl:

[Deathfist]

Having said all of what I said above, I can totally see how violence can break out over MvC2. Same thing for any other game. Especially if it is in a bar. Drunk idiots playing that have no idea of what's unfair and what isn't, and have no concept of competitive gaming fighting experts or even intermediate players who do. That's almost a recipe for violence.

[Deathfist]

I also threatened to kick this others guys ass because he thought the gambit glitch was acceptable gameplay. I told him if he wasted another one of my quarters on that stupid glitch, that i'd shove my hand down his throat and pull up the first piece of matter I got my hands on. He never did it again :rofl:

I love that one. Too funny LOL

[tech master]

if anyone wanted to get in a fight over marvel cuz i beat them, i'd be more than happy to serve them a 2nd scrapin'. and you better believe i'm screaming "SHORYUKEN" as i knock there ass out

[gouki10]

I've never been in a fight over Marvel, but i believe there have been times when i deserved a slap on the face for talking trash i wasn't backing up.

Now i don't trash, and prove myself in the game instead of with my mouth. I try to avoid situations of confertations when it comes to Marvel. I never play when i see some "Ghetto" looking people on the machine, but i will play if they come up, and play me. I remember one time i was playing marvel with a friend, and these 2 Black guys were playing some basketball game, and they were being really loud whenever one would make a shot or whatever. I was glad they didn't play marvel cause they both were getting mad when they would mess up.

The problem now a days is that alot of people can't handle losing, and don't look at a lost and find what they did wrong so that they can improve for the next match.

[ZZ_Jaron]

I remember playing this one guy, It was my SScable vs his Doom/Tron/CapCom (3 kick-ass assists)
It comes down to 2-0 w/ me in the lead.
He says "Cheatin ass nigga." I ignore the comment.
The next match I totally dominated him w/ an OCV and I yell "Yeeaaah!"

He gets up and I guess clinches his fists together and hits me in the shoulder.
Now I'm up and we're at a staredown,
but the owner eventually sees us and rushes to seperate us.

I wanted to shove him to the side and put hands on this mutha fucka, but he threatened to ban us both so I backed out, and the guy left.
Never saw him again (I had heard he got banned)
But that's when I 1st discovered that people will scrap over Marvel.

He never saw him hit me, so he wouldn't believe me.
Cuz I was bout to call the homies up and jump that mutha fucka.
All because of 3 games of Marvel.

[tech master]

Cuz I was bout to call the homies up and jump that mutha fucka.

if you try and scrape someone, do it yourself.

[dann]

quarters are worth less than a bruise and tension.

[50mOrEcEnTz]

when somebody says something...if you say nothing back but make eye contact, and keep doing what you do, more than likely they leave it alone...but you can't allow somebody to put hands on you for no reason..the minute anybody threatens you; you have to let them know in your own way that that type of behavior will not fly =)

i live in atlanta and dont have problems, juss dont egg them on n make fun of them but at the same time make eye contact so they know you know they pissed...but jusss dont really care enough to change whatever your doing...basically saying, if u want to make a move...make it, 99% of the time, all of them are about talkin that booshiet and not walking any =)

[Divine Tenken]

I watch a fight break out over sonson ocv a whole team and the player was a girl funny at the time.

[ZZ_Jaron]

Cost to play marvel vs capcom2 = 2-10 tokens. Cost to play random ass scrubs how need glitches to win = 4-8 tokens. Cost of reading post like this on srk = PRICELESS.

[Mixah]

i beat up your mom when you were born.

[myleftshoe]

I remember when gaurd break into ahvb came out my friend friend pushed this other guy down pretty funny.

Usually anyones first taste of gb into 3 ahvb ends in extreme frustration. I've seen some bad reactions plenty of time from fist timers

[MeLikeToSmash]

i know lotsa people who dont fight, but beat the stick, kick dreamcasts and throw tantrums when they cant execute

[Green]

people who actually get mad about something they consider cheap ALWAYS suck at the game
qft.

A girl fight over marvel? That's hot:lovin:

[Team Cable]

I've had a nigga want to fight me before.

He was a decent player using a low tier team of Cammy-Doom-Jin. But I had a nice comeback with my MegaMan-Cable-Tron Boone team.

He bitched about how Cable's guard break was cheating. Bitched about MegaMan's corner guard break. I almost got Tron's to connect and he called me on that.

Out of all the things he complained about the most legit one is the fucking Tron Boone assist and he never said shit about that!

He was even telling niggas that I was cheap and don't waste time playing.

[Juggy]

Def nigga def nigga

Idiot.

[Jizzz_frame]

thats what i hate about marvel. i have to give up too many games because people get so angry.

this fat white guy always shakes his head and slams on the buttons when he loses. when i play him i always sandbag and if i lose he thinks he's the shit and when he loses he just gets mad.

so when im playing someone and he puts his token up, i just lose on purpose. since i get free tokens i dont care anyways.

when i play somebody like that... I rape them so they don't come back...... ever.... i'll lose to them, mirror match them, and then rape them to ensure them never coming back.

[Shadow Ace 50]

Mirror matches are so wrong...lol

tons of fights broke out at this college that had MVC2 and tekken tag....it was mainly freshman's (of course) when my friend james magged someone down the crowd went nuts..after the match the guy said "you are a bitch for that"...my friend has a short temper so he activated the genijin and beat the hell out of the guy...they took out marvel and tekken and replaced it with pac-man and hydro thunder..

[JSN723]

seriously, when people slam on the buttons everytime when they lose it pisses me off. Theyre just gonna mess up the buttons for others or themselves, which will make them more angry because the controls are not working and then hit them harder. its stupid ><

[dann]

i remember in street fighter 2, the loser usually shook the guys hand and said "good game." crazy people these days...

[karate_ghost]

DANG!!! i neva heard this kind of animosity over Marvel. but i used to have a temper, but it was like a tiking clock. i remembered when i played mk on the snes. i would play my cuz, and every time he won he'd tease me( i wiped him a couple). well, i got mad at it and lashed out on that nigga!!! believe me, he got a beatin!!! but now, i dont get mad, but i still hate teasers. sometimes i dont like whiners either. if u aint got somethin good to say then dont say anything at all.

[Tigerboi]

Here in nashville, I've hardly seen anybody have powerful anger over marvel. well, there was this one guy who kept slamming the buttons because his MSP wasn't working agians my boy's team scrub.

......I personally thionk that team gives msp a really hard time. When he hit the machine, I was like "Hey, nigga, we respect the greatness that is our machines in here.". everyone laughed and he left.

I made one guy angry becuase I ran away with storm agianst his juggs/cyke/bbhood team. Pretty funny. Won with a time over and storm was on point the whole time. :lol:

Shockingly, launching an assist to death has never pissed anyone off really bad.

[Remix1213]

Get in line with the other hundreds of players to say that....

[gouki10]

^lol

[J360]

games in general cause anger if you lose, no one likes to lose, its all about how the person handles their anger.

[tech master]

i usually get more angry at myself for when i mess up on execution cuz i usually start yellin out "SHIT! FUCK BITCH COCK BALLS". some people take that wrong and think im gettin angry at them hah

[gouki10]

truth, best way is to see why you lost, then go train so that it doesn't happen agian.

[lilzizzay814816]

agree ta tht

[Tigerboi]

Wow.

[sbw]

yea, I've seen a dude catch an ass kicking because of marvel. A guy, we used to nickname panthro from the thundercats, because he looked like him, but we never used to say that to his face. Just a nickname because we didnt know his name, plus he always came to the arcade in his training gear.

He used low tier characters and whenever I'd play him, since he wasn't that great, I'd match it up with lower tier characters and we'd have great games. He definitely had some SF skills but not so much marvel wise. So him and I got along great all the time and we'd always B.S. despite not knowing his real name.

There was a corny dude who played him one day and just cheesed the hell outta him w/ cable/doom/syke...hilarity ensued.

panthro: yo man your shits cheap
chump: yo, man, **** you, blah blah blah
panthro: Im gonna beat your ass if you don't shut the **** up.

im a decent sized guy, about 190 5'10" and panthro was in better shape, obviously trained everyday because he always had gear on, and I've seen him almost throw down before over nothin... Chump was mad small and out of shape, wtf was going through his head before he opened his mouth next was certainly not the punches that were about to...

left, right, somethin crazy, headlock... chump's like cryin in this dude's arms, Im fuggin :rofl: because in all honestly, this dude had it comin. The owner comes over, calms panthro down, chump runs off to one side of the arcade and continues to talk trash. Now panthro's chasin this dude around the arcade while chump is literally tryin to run away.

[Remix1213]

lol u funny...i bet i can whoop all them FAKE MSP players....besides the pros chunk and nem.... i play a variety of teams thats just one of my best...haha though


You going to Evo? I have a fake msp, i use mss. Wanna play for some $$$?:smokin:

[tindiamond]

I've just had people yell in my face tell me I suck and shit after fucking them up with Cable. I just laughed it off. Then they tell me not to call characters cuz calling characters is cheap. So I had my Guile come out first and took out his whole team. There was a whole bunch of brothers that wanted to kick my ass just cuz I handled their ass to them but nah they never did shit. I was around 13 years old fucking up 20 year old dudes. LOL

[lilzizzay814816]

You going to Evo? I have a fake msp, i use mss. Wanna play for some $$$?:smokin:

if i were goin to evo i would play you first hand but im not goin to evo this year..dnt thinkim cumming at you wrong, i respect all mvc2 players.

[feomex]

this one time i when to my local FFA and i was playing this white dude.
I suck at MvsC2 in the frist place, compare to the others.
we were both at the same level.

I had storm in my team so we where all into the game and i was winnig by a small amount .

so i saw this video
on youtube where the guy using stom just flys most the time and he does the super when the conterder trys to get close.

the time was almost over so i just started to FLY

the white dude got mad and at the end of the macht he just hit the controls rally hard and was furious.

I thought he was going to start something but insted he went over to some other freinds and complaind to them about me.


It was crazy i thought.:rock:

[RisunoMeijin]

Yo, bananas was there for 1 of these 2 as well, he can confirm this shit.

*Just chilling at the arcade about a year ago, I was playing Mag/Calble/Tron back then. I had just gotten to the point where I hit mags guard break like 80-90% of the time, and there arent really any mag players at this arcade, so people were just blocking and eating the GB every time. Needless to say I racked up a fair amount of wins (due less to my skill and more to the failure of my opponents to tap the short button on the way in) playing against 3 other people. I dont know if I was causing tension o rise, or something, but two of the other guys started arguing, I think somone wanted someone elses spot in line or something. They got into a heated verbal debate, and one guy left, the other kept playing, and eventually knocked me off.
I switched to MSDoom and on the moment the speaker pumped out "engage" I noticed there was someone on the oppositions back. This cat came BACK up to the arcade with a Game boy link cable to try and choke dude out. :rofl: Im sorry but there is something extremely lame about that. The other guy flips him off his back onto the floor, and when he comes back up he has a damn kitchen knife in his hands!:sweat: At that point everyone was kinda surrounding him cause they saw he had a knife and shit, and he turned tail and ran, I was fairly surprised.

Another time fairly similar situation, except this time I was playing combofiend, and actually beasting people instead of rom-whoring them. :wgrin: Someone gets in a fist fight because another player said "Kid" in reference to him. He said dont call me a kid, next thing I knew fists were flying, death threats were made, it gets pretty heated pretty fast. This one ended with one guy leaving, the other guy staying, scared he was gonna get his ass beat if he left to soon. Classic.

[APimpNameServBot]

Mine is funny,

Ok well I'm at the arcade and I break a dollar get some change get some tokens & start playing SNK vs Capcom2 now I am noobtacullar at that game lol so I playing an older guy he knew how play so I was prepared for the worst. So as we were playing I caught on to a certain move you can preform with many characters that can continously trip them over and over and if timed right can not be blocked but I hated it so at the time I was standing at the arcade doing hurrican kick over and over but the move wouldn't input and instead I got the trippy kick and I kept triping him and I didn't mean to use it so he SIGHED realy loud and did the same thing to me and killed off all my char's over and over with the trippy kick and I was geting ready to sock him in the face because it was an accident didn't mean to use the same kick 3 times in row sorry.

And the second time I was geting a my friend angry whose face was turning red and told me he was gonna sock me in my face but he wasn't he was just angry at the fact it was 6-0 6 being my number of wins. With my team in Marv vs Capcom 2 old team too Captain Cammdo groun type, Warmachine projectile, and Iron man anti air.

[randomsuper]

someone in this thread neg repped me a few months for posting and i just realized it. fucking loser.

anyway, it seems pretty safe to say that getting heated over something as unimportant as losing a match in a video game is pretty lame. and getting into an actual physical confrontation over a game is even worse.

[Kanzaki]

they took out marvel and tekken and replaced it with pac-man and hydro thunder..

LOL, that was a good one
