Project Justice Thread - HYAAAAAAH!

Buffalo · February 15

Haven't seen a Project Justice thread around, so how about it? Discuss your teams, your combos, your strategies, your favorite characters, match footage and all that jazz!

My current team is Tiffany, Hayato, and Zaki.

My Tiffany combos are:

s.LP, s.LK, s.HP, s.HK, f.HP, qcfx2 HP or HK (HP: 11 Hits, 66 dmg | HK: 15 hits, 64 dmg) I prefer to use her HP super because it keeps Tiffany on the ground and allows for some pressure opportunity.

s.LP, s.LK, s.HP, c.HK, df.HK, jump, j.LP, j.LK, j.HP, j.HK, jf.HP (10 hits, 56 dmg) offers a hard knock down as opposed to ending the air string with a jf.HK.

Hayato combos:

s.LP, s.LP, s.HP, b.HP, qcfx2 HP or HK. (HP: 6 Hits, 82 dmg | HK: 13 Hits, 78 dmg)

s.LP, s.LP, s.HP, df.HK, jump, j.LP, j.LP, j.HP, qcf HP (11 Hits, 61 dmg)

Zaki combos:

s.LP, s.LK, s.HP, s.HK, f.HP, qcbx2 HK (12 Hits, 74 dmg)

s.LP, s.LK, s.HP, s,HK, df.HK, jump, j.LP, j.LK, j.HP, j.HK, qcfx2 LP or HP (LP: 15 Hits, 69 dmg | HP: 15 Hits, 68 dmg) you can do either HP or LP super, but LP knocks the opponent downward while HP knocks them forward.

Obviously they're pretty basic combos, but the combo system's a bit limited and they all tend to follow one or two flows.

Man i would love to play this online! See if my Vatsu, momo, and kurow team was actually legit or if i was just playing lame competition.

Meowmix · February 16

I'm a huge RS/PJ fan. The day the game gets a re-release will be a glorious day indeed. As for teams, I generally run two depending on my mood. The one I run primarily is Hinata, Zaki, and Yurika. My alternate team is Roy, Hayato, and Yurika (that assist is just too good).

SSJ_Sonikku · February 16

Good to see that people like this game. I just got this game recently, though I had to pay 70 bucks. I'll have to play more of it some time.

4neqs · February 17

Every competent PJ player should be able to do Momo bnb's/combo to party up by heart.

4neqs · February 17

Some more matches here, pretty heavy on the combo dropping/trolling... deliberately dropped mini-air combo to air throw is pretty nice though.

4neqs · February 17

New forum is so buggy lol meant to post this http://www.youtube.com/user/KeikoXTC?feature=g-all-u

That vid showed me I prolly play a lil too conservatively, I could be doing a lil bit more, especially with Momo...

4neqs · February 18

It's kinda Marvel-ish at first, but at higher levels the limitations show. It's very turtley especially with the "no death by block damage" thing. First to land a throw/air throw or first to land s. lp into a long combo usually wins.

Some more matchvids here

Get used to seeing a lot of Roy/Roberto/Momo

Keepin'em Honest · February 19

Yea, that's how we use to play, very "turtley". It got even worse after everybody got really REALLY good at tardy countering. And I hate Robert, 'good friend of mine was unbeatable with that guy; once a hit was landed, it was time to go make a sandwich. He would try to style so hard with Rob.

4neqs · February 20

There's some anti TC technology as well. If you use light attacks, they're not particularly TC-able. Sometimes you can also be at a certain range, then you can punish a TC attempt.

AFAIK it's easiest with ranged weapon characters like Hyo/Demon Hyo but almost any character can do it.

Mendis · February 26

Were the videos recorded with a walkie-talkie?

4neqs · February 27

With whatever they had in 2003-4.

EmblemLord · March 18

My friend and I play a lot of stuff at a fairly high level and ths game while being extremely fun is basically just frame trap with jabs all day into mix ups. U can't TC those as they recover too fast. Once you open some one up the game is over. All the top tiers can easily net over half life with a bar and their combos build a lot of meter. Still it IS a capcom game so it is def competitive and very fun.

abkallday · March 19

Needs a sequal

Circuitous · March 19

Fun game. Wish more people played it locally, but our primary access to it is a cab with fairly low-quality American parts. I can't get used to it, personally. Mostly play Kyosuke, learning Akira, haven't settled on a third yet.

Kyosuke 2LK > 2HP > HK > 6HK > 623HP, j.LP > j.LK > j.HP > j.HK > j.236P~K nets 77 damage and is pretty easy to do. Still working on combo theory though. Any good resources for the game, or is it all studying match videos? (Pardon the pseudo-numpad notation.)

It's all about studying high level videos and trying them out in the arcades/with friends in vs imo. Not a lot of stuff on GameFAQs or elsewhere aside from the basic combo stuff.

Arcade/Japanese DC (afaik) Kyosuke also has this air walk glitch that allows you to combo into his Level 5. qcf + lk + hk, the game will read it as both his sidestep and his flashkick, so he will be in a walking on air state. This allows you to combo to party up by doing df+hk (high launcher) -> super jump -> then qcf + all buttons (air walk activate + Level 5 activate).

Circuitous · March 20

That sounds bizarre, I'll have to try that.

iambuttmustard · March 20

This game also needs a re-release. I loved it, but at the time it came out, I was a little to young to take it seriously.

Oniros · March 24

This needs the Iron Galaxy Treatment ASAP.

King9999 · March 24

Happy to see this thread!

It's been a long time, but I think my mains were Hyo, Kyosuke, and Hideo.

I would take a new game by a competent team, but if a remake is the best Capcom could do, then Iron Galaxy would indeed be a good pick.

Just found this random vid from 2012:

Blood Feast · March 25

I love this game. There are some match vids from Japan scattered around YouTube, I'll try posting some tomorrow.

4neqs · March 25

Just came back from a whoopin at the arcade. I hope to go back on Saturday or earlier.

Game is 80-85% jabs/lights and air throws/throw mindgames and 15% everything else.

re: 2012 vid
Yeah KeikoXTC has a bunch of recent stuff. A lot are kinda trolley casuals... unless they were going for resets/throws by dropping the mini-air combos on purpose (and failing to follow up on those).

Those vids continue to leave me asking, why haven't these games gone digital, yet. People need to play this!

I swear, it feels like Capcom is ran by monkeys.

Blood Feast · March 25

Some stuff:

4neqs · March 25

Good ol' Ganfinite. *thumbs up*

Now that I think about it, there's a lot of KOF influence in this.

attack chains tend to be light -> heavy -> command move (e.g. f + hp) -> special/super
lots offense initiated by jabs and j. lk's

Vatsu's moveset reminds me of Iori in a way
And of course Roy as somewhat a young Terry Bogard

Edit - oh yeah, Edge -> Yamazaki too.

Negative-Zer0 · March 26

Roy is terry's long lost cousin.

Blood Feast · March 27

New madness

King9999 · March 29

What are the tiers for PJ?

EDIT: Never mind, found it: http://wiki.shoryuken.com/Rival_Schools_Project_Justice Is this still current? And this wiki has nothing...

iambuttmustard · March 29

Tiers? It always seemed to me that everyone could win at this game, if the basic tools were utilized properly and you had decent fundamentals. I had no idea there were established tiers. Everyone seemed to have decent pokes and footsies and everyone could launch into solid air combos.

Malvadisco · March 29

to me p.akira > hideo from that list

4neqs · March 29

Nah, some characters simply don't have the range, safe jabs, or the damage output for things to be equal.

There are tricks here and there, but in general the lower characters are out-jabbed and out-BS'd by the top tier. The tops can easily do half-life off a jab (then another setup/mixup post combo etc), as mentioned earlier. Hideo is top because of easy combos and runaway iirc.

I think the wiki's pretty accurate, not enough active players/events to have something consolidated now imo. Generally it's Momo/Hideo/Roy/Kurow/Roberto up top -> everyone else -> Iincho in last.

iambuttmustard · March 29

^ Well, learn something new everyday. At least Roy's top tier. I always thought he was awesome! My team was always Roy, [Wild]Daigo, and Shoma.

King9999 · March 29

Yeah, I remember Chairperson being really weak when I played, so it's no surprise that she's at the bottom. I'm also not surprised that Momo is at the top. :/

Circuitous · April 2

Hey, so. Say I had a recording setup that could get game footage at a buttery smooth 60fps and wanted to do some tutorial videos. Anyone else think that'd be a good idea? Maybe has some input?

I'd be cool with that. But where would you upload the vids?

Circuitous · April 2

Well YouTube, but probably Nico for the 60fps? I dunno what other sites do 60.

Would be purdy coo, bro.

Stuff to cover:

Movement (dashes, super jumps, ditches)
Normals / Command Normals
Textbook Combos
Throws
Special Moves
Supers
Team-Up Supers (the different types mostly)
Party Supers
Clashing
Tardy Cancels

what am I missing? Also do these things have proper names?

Keepin'em Honest · April 2

"Ditches" are the side steps, right?

Circuitous · April 2

Yeah. School puns.

I tried uploading a couple of SFEX vids I made on DailyMotion (I think it was this site) because they didn't force vids down to 30 fps.

Actually, I'm pretty sure it wasn't DailyMotion...I'm gonna see if I can find the vids again.

EDIT: It was Vimeo. I checked out my video again, and it doesn't look like it's 60 fps anymore.

The successful sidesteps were called Ditch n' Spins, and counters were called Tardy Counters, I believe. There's also the Team-Up counters, but I forget what the game calls those.

DoaGHThaDOJO, HardEdgeOfficial, and kouhatsu are all good for matches.

I want this game to return!!!!

Also Chairsperson is awesome. I hope that they release project justice to ps3/xbox 360 as a remake so I could play her again

4neqs · May 11

Bump just to second that HardEdge is a good source of vids, and they just uploaded some new vids recently.

http://www.youtube.com/user/HardEdgeOfficial/search?query=Moero!

King9999 · May 11

Not that I'm going to this year's EVO (maybe next year), but is there gonna be a PJ side tourney?

iambuttmustard · May 11

Do they have the damage turned up in the HardEdge vids? I remember everything doing way less damage in PJ.

p.m novaroad pilot · May 11

Those combos natsu did must only be in that version
i dont remember being able to combo into her big launcher

Circuitous · May 13

You didn't provide a link so I can't see the combo you're referring to, but she can combo into her diving save, which works like a high launcher. Disregard this if she used her actual high launcher.
