Virtua Fighter 2 and 5

[Sammun Mak]

Here is a very cheap way to beat virtua fighter 2:

1) Pick jeffry
2) Hit L2 -- your enemy will be pushed back at least a little bit.
3) If they move backwards a few steps, hold right to get up where you are. If they don't move, hold left to roll backwards before getting up.
4) Repeat 2 & 3 until you win

Does anyone have the easiest character to cheese virtua fighter 5 is? What is the newbiest character? What moves are good?

This is working absolutely wonderfully, but is there a good strategy for if they happen to block ALL the attacks? Then, they're right up in your face and you don't have the range to keep going. Died to bonus stage cuz of that.

Those two worked beautifully for me. Thank you!

Not really, they'll escape most of your grabs, so I'd either recommend jab followed by a kick or repeating the previous tactic until AI completely breaks.

Thinks sixtyfivekills. Worked beautifully!

Is there some sort of requirement to beat Dural? I didn't check anything.

Tell me how it went.

no, aside from beating 7 opponents to get to the bonus stage. the last 2 fights are very difficult and took me a few continues. Beating dural is one of the milestones in the Part Time Hero list, so I wanted to complete it.

Virtua Fighter 5FS is like the most complex, best fighter game that was ever made. Cheap exploits work only on low difficulties, don't expect to win for free on higher level, but most importantly, don't expect to cheese good players.

It's a game of skill, so spend a little time, and learn the game. It's worth it.

Fighting games, along with racing games and turn-based strategy games, are one of the few genres I just don't play. I am, however, an insane completionist. I'm glad I could get through this without driving myself crazy. In fact, learning riichii mahjong was a lot harder.

VF5FS is good for playing somebody online with Parsec.

I'll do mahjong any day, at least I know it's a game of chance. VF seems pretty crap to me. The AI reads input, and cheats so our moves are unsafe on hit. It's like they never evolved from the arcade days when the objective was to eat coins.

Umm... neither of them are a game of chance, but mahjong definitely has like 5x as much an element of luck. Like any game of skill, you can increase how often you win by playing the game well, but there is no counter to bad luck. VF, on the other hand, has almost no luck and a skilled player will beat even the hardest computer every single time. And this is coming from someone who enjoyed learning riichii mahjong much more than learning VF 2 or 5.

you are never unsafe on hit, but that doesn't mean you have enough advantage to push more buttons.

vf2 can be easily cheesed with a single button. I think i was only hit maybe 5 times from first fight to the bonus stage.

VF5 can be cheesed, it's just harder and takes more practice. just read the first post for a decent strategy.
