Group effort to learn each character?

    I've noticed alot of people here on VFDC and on my Xbox friends list don't necessarily know each character well enough to play versus them (myself included) and lose to "shenanigans" which might not even be as strong as it appears.

    Do you guys think it would be a good idea to try and get everyone here to pickup a chosen character for 2weeks or a month? Everyone using the same character and sharing tips?

    I'll join you on that, Hazz. When me and Marly were playing about with the same character at the same time on Tekken I learned their ins and outs much faster.
    It's better when you can talk to each other as well.

    I'm down for that... I wanted to pick up SA or get back on BR, but I still don't know enough about JE still-- well at least to consider myself truly formidable.

    Anyone else? 3-4 people is not enough to cover a character in a 2week or month period.

    I'd be down for it but i'm to lazy to keep quitting and inviting again, wish VF had had an option to go back to the character select when playing online [​IMG]

    I've mostly been using other chracters for the last month or so anyway, barely used Akira.

    Im reasonably good with every character except Lion, Shun, and Akira. I just pay attention when playing against other characters and naturally pick up on strats. So I could join this effort. Learning new characters is what keeps me playing VF.

    I think this is a good idea.

    I'm in, people always say they don't know enough about Lion after playing me. Personally I'm weak against Kage.

    Lol I totally didn't read the first post, I thought we would just use random chars for a night or something. Never mind I'll still give it a go.

    I'm thinking about either re-learning Lion or Aoi... Hope to get some serious vf cross training in soon...

    I am the perfect person for this stuff, I can use all the characters equally well.

    Seriously.

    How do you want to do this? Just randomly jump from character to character or go through them in order?

    Well I would either number characters 1-17 and then I would post asking someone to pick a number and then we all go with that character. Or it would be a vote by all people who want to be involved saying who they'd like to learn most.

    Alright then people put your names down if you want to get involved. My XBL is down to silver for a little bit and my faulty stick is being sent back for a replacement sometime today (hopefully). Should give us enough time to get this ish sorted.
