Marvel Fighting Collection (MVC2 specifically)

Anyone playing? I got to play a bit this morning and it was very good. This is easily my favorite fighter of all time, and I have been playing it on and off since 2000...so, I am going to add some rambling thoughts: -Feels like input lag is reduced from the PS3 version, as I can magneto infinite way easier...which is nice. Actually, Maximillian confirmed this. I used to think my dropped combos on PS3 was just me being old...turns out, my reflexes just yearn for the Dreamcast input lag. -rematch remembers your characters and assists...which is cool. But picking a new team, the assist pick defaults to whatever assist was in that slot on the previous team...which is weird, because I kind of pic that shit on muscle memory. I ended up with Psylocke on gamma assist because I was not paying attention...that was no good. -They took out the screen flash for a KO'd character, which I did not realize was a response my brain relied on. -I really, really wish they added a placement system like in SF6, where you play 10 matches, and the game figures out what rank you should be in. If I am playing ranked, I want to play other decent people, and it's just a pile of bodies right now. MVC2 is basically two different games: the high level meta, and the fun low tiers. I have low tier teams, but, I want to play ranked to play good people again...so it does not feel good to go in guns blazing because I don't know if I am playing the best guile in the world or not. All in all...this is going to greatly affect my productivity.

Can't wait for a pig in a MRAP to run me off the high way

"The vehicle, valued at $689,000, was not paid for by the town or tax dollars. It was acquired through the Federal 1033 program run by the US Department of Defense's Law Enforcement Support Office. The program transfers weapons, equipment and vehicles from the military to civilian law enforcement agencies." oh...ok ...why?

Hey guys, I've been penny pinching, but I had some car issues in October, and after paying rent for November I'm completely wiped out. I hate to ask, but I just need a few bucks to get groceries for my twins and get my anti depression medication. Anything would help. Since I see other people posting PayPal here, I'll just do that: neroiscariot@proton.me Once again, thank you and I appreciate all of you.

This might actually be the best site ever.

we've reached another end of another week. I have scrimmed and saved and worked my butt off to get extra freelance money and I am sitting pretty with my kids going into a long weekend or even an extended stay. This would not be possible without the support of this community in this board as a whole. I'm not living large by any means I just have enough to cover what needs to be covered. That includes rent utilities food gas all that good stuff. I feel like I need to say this because of all the other conversation about federation in people not understanding what this board is about. When somebody denigrates hackberry I point at the outpouring of love and support that we give those who we consider members of our community. It's not even a hard past a test just don't be a Nazi Don't be a terf... Just be cool willing to listen to others and don't be incendiary. I am happy that you have helped me and my children get to a place of stability I will never forget that and I want to return the favor. It may not be today it may not be tomorrow but I know that true solidarity lies in helping each other and I greatly appreciate and love all of you. I fear I've been too sappy so I'm going to leave this off with a tiny salute o7

Folks, is honey a fungus?

Hey guys, you may know me as the dad that has monetary problems. My ex abused my love for my children, while taking child support. We are at the end of a two week possession, where she has left me wIth basically nothing. She used my accounts to pay for school registration, daycare... leaving me with less than $40. I have to make rent this week, which I think I can do...but I just need help with groceries until Friday. I hate asking, and I would normally donate plasma for extra money...but I can't with this schedule. EDIT: thank you everyone for boosting and helping out. I love all of you. I was able to get all the food I needed to make it through the weekend for my twins and cats. If any of you ever need anything with graphic design, please reach out. 

EDIT: Thank you for all the support. Words really helped me, and I am going to make it. I had to edit this post, because I realize my ex would be able to identify me from it...and she has used social media against me in court before. I don't care if I get identified online...I just don't want my words to hurt my chances of getting full possession of my kids. Love and solidarity.

I don't want o jump to conclusions or make any brash statements...but here are, the hot takes for your personal reference. Also not sure if this is the right place, so direct me or the post wherever.

This sucks. I have been trying to keep myself off this comm, avoiding personal loans and all that jazz..but I am just gassed. I Paid rent this month and it wiped me out. I have my twins coming for six days, and I just do not have the money to provide for them. I was fraught in point this, because you are all amazing. I do not know who you are, or where you come from, but this is the most supportive community on the planet. The kids eat like animals (the are six) and I like to give them fruit as opposed to processed shit...I don't know, call me whatever...I just need a little help. EDIT: thank you all so much. I appreciate everything. My kids should be taken care of this weekend feel free to ignore me, I love all of you.

EDIT: Thank you so much for the outpour of support. I greatly appreciate all the help. I can ensure my kids have a good week while I work to get things back together. I love this community and each and every one of you people. Like most people on this community, I really never wanted to make one of these posts, but my financial situation is getting dire. I woke up knowing it was going to be bad, but my account is in the negative by hundred of dollars...and I don't know what to do. I don't mind denying myself of things, but I am the primary caregiver of six year old twins, and I don't ever want them to suffer because of my situation. I will go into detail about my situation, below, but I just wanted to preface by saying I am a graphic designer, and I am willing to work for anything. I just want to keep the roof over our heads. Obviously, if you cannot give, please do not feel compelled to do so. To give some background, my twins *do* have a mother, and she lives about 25 miles away from me. In our divorce, she won primary custody, and she gets $2000 a month from me in child support. She comes from a very wealthy family, and basically took everything from me in the divorce 3 years ago by simply outspending me. I was left with no choice to declare bankruptcy in 2020 because my credit card bills used from paying my lawyer were drowning me. She also makes *way* more than me. However, for the past year, she has basically shirked her responsibilities as a mother. She usually only keeps the children 1-2 days a week, while she lives in a 5 bedroom house and I live in a 2 bedroom apartment with 4 cats. I have a friend who does family law, and we are gearing up to fight her to at least get the child support dropped...but, as of now, I am bleeding dry. I have been keeping the wheels turning by doing what everyone does. Move bills around, let my account dip negative to keep the lights on, take advance from my paycheck to pay rent...but I always knew time was going to run out. My kids go to school a quarter mile from their mom's house, but 25 miles away from me. My office, that I have to go to daily, is an hour away from their school. My daily commute is 100 miles. I have to get gas constantly. My toll bills are so bad that if I get pulled over, they will impound my car. I just feel like I cannot get ahead in life. About a year ago, a had a partner that made thing easier...but it turns out they lied to me about their past, and they are now serving at least 10 years in prison for serious crimes prior to our meeting. This week, I have to come up with money to pay bills and rent, and it's just not going to be there. I have basically sold everything I own that is solely for me, while leaving small things that bring my kids joy. I don't want to tell their mother that I cannot afford my children, as that would destroy me in court. I don't know what I am asking for, truly...just a little help? I know it is hard to ask for help, and even harder to admit why, but I am just at a loss. After I post this, I am going to try to see if I can connect with old freelance clients to get some quick work. I just want to get my rent and bills taken care of, while ensuring my kids have food. I'll steal food from the cats if needed. Thank all of you if you read this far, I apologize for the stream of consciousness, but I couldn't sleep last night due to anxiety. now, I feel like a zombie.
