Ciel's Tech Support / MBCaster randomly decides to fail.
« on: August 05, 2010, 07:27:17 PM »
I've played on it countless times, but a few days ago it, it refuses to work. I've reinstalled it and have done a system restore, but no luck. It either times out, or it says the UDP 7500 is bad. I have opened this port up but still no success.

Anyone have any ideas on why this is happening, and how I can fix it?

I'd love to join. At the moment, I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with my MBCaster. It should be resolved soon though. I'll be on a lot, so don't hesitate to message me ;)

I joined melty team 1. I tried joining all the others for the past few pages, and it's hard to believe they've all filled up. I don't think it's all different people joining the new servers, It's probably the same people, which makes it harder for others to find servers to join. If you have a good amount of servers on your list, then please leave one so that someone else may join.

Thanks :D

*Edit*

Thanks for the invite guys, now I have too many servers XD

Yeah, I'm from Rochester NY. I'm transferring to Buffalo next semester and hear there's a Melty scene up there, which is great. I just wanted some people to play MBCaster with. I'll check the tournament section out as well to find more people.

Hey, I've just joined the Melty Blood community and plan on getting into this game competitively. Since I'm new to this game, I've been reading and watching a good amount to learn as much as I can to familiarize myself. Until I can gather the things I need in order to play MB:AA, I'm going to learn as much as I can from MB:AC.

But I'm going to need players to practice with and apply the things I learn, as well as people that can point out my mistakes, offer advice, give tips, and critique my gameplay along the way.

AIM: chhipz, or PM me so we can set something up.

Any and all help is very much appreciated.

Yo! Chhipz here. Live in Rochester, NY but am moving to Buffalo next semester for College. There's a Melty scene up there and I plan on pouring in all my free time into learning this game competitively. I've just started out and have yet to gather all the MB:AA materials, so I'm playing MB:AC, reading strats, watching gameplay, and just familiarizing myself with this franchise in general. I can't wait to get started!
I'm a Sion/Arcueid fan from the Tsukihime/ Melty Blood manga, and that's transitioning over as my character choices for the game.

My Background: I played Melee competitively for 2 years, then decided to switch because I couldn't find any locals to practice with (other than a few tournaments). I was above average at this game, but I could never find players that would help me elevate my game to the next level. I literally only practiced against computers.

Funny story is, I met a guy who still played Melee not too long ago and we decided to have a match. I haven't played Melee in many years, and was expecting our encounter to be more of a learning experience for me. After all, he'd been practicing all this time, with a group that also played competitively. It turns out, I ended up winning the vast majority of our matches, and continued to do so consistently throughout that semester. It just goes to show you,

Anyways, after Melee I decided to get into Halo competitively, as a lot of my friends played it. This went on up until recently (approx. 3-4 years). I became really good at it, and won several locals, dominated on LAN, but unfortunately I was never able to find solid, dedicated, selfless teammates despite 17-18 months of searching. Another unfortunate situation where I couldn't elevate my game to a higher calibur. After a ton of research and thinking, I'm back to the fighting genre with desire to prove myself. Look out for me in the future ;)

Definately going to keep track of this blog.

Congrats on your second place finish!

That was the one crucial problem I had with SSBM. I had no one around me who played the game competitively (Rochester, NY which is 5-6 hours from NYC), and since it wasn't online, the only real practice I got were the tournaments I traveled to. It's unfortunate there's nothing similar to MBCaster for MBAA. Would the practice from MBAC on MBCaster translate over to MBAA? I know they're both similar games, but MBAA has far more depth from a few new gameplay mechanics and far more characters/movesets due to the various moon phases as you mentioned.

There's definately a lot to think about here, especially if I'll even be able to find that "specific" form of PS2. I do appreciate all the responses though. Thanks again.

I've come from years of competitive Smash and Halo and after much careful research and consideration, have jumped back over to the fighting genre. After trying out MB: AC for the PC, watching tournament matches, reading, etc. I knew the Melty Blood series was one I'd genuinely enjoy for a long time. But there are still a lot of things I don't know that needed to be straightened out before I make the committment. I was hoping this community shed some light on a few significant topics.


1. Material/Equipment wise, should I invest in a PS2 and import MB:AA, or buy the PC version with a PS2/PC compatable controller? If I get the PS2, what mod chip do I need so I can play japanese games on it?

2. This is probably the most important question, since quality practice against other players is essential - Will I be able to play MB:AA online/ Add people to practice with? If there is online, is there support for headset/microphone chat?

3. What's the outlook on this game; will it's competitive scene remain strong in the coming years or weaken (Let's say, for the next 4 years)? Is Melty Blood's competitive/ tournament scene stronger in certain areas/states? If so, which are the strongest/ weakest?

4. Is Type-Moon/Ecole planning to release another Melty Blood game after MB:AA?

5. Anything else I should know?


Thanks in advance, and I look forward to being a part of this community.
