This is for anyone as uncoordinated as me needing help with any of the missions.
I started with wolverine cause he's first on the list. Stuck with his last mission timing the player 2 assist call after the launch, M M H S, player 2 assist, etc etc
From what Smoof said in the other thread i think maybe i need to delay the M M H S air combo so i'm closer to the ground and can call the assist sooner.
Am i on the right path?
Also i started to look at hulk next and his timing with air combos is so different to wolverine that i skipped him when i got to level 7 and i'm on Iron Man now. LOL.
Had a similar prob with Iron Man and mission 7 and the assist. I tried Alan's advice of hitting H and the assist call at the same time but no love yet. Moved on and finished 8
and am taking a break.
So far it's no where near as frustrating as SSF4 so hopefully thats a good sign. Although apart from 3 games with Rory yesterday i haven't played a match yet so..
Yeah I have little patience for doing missions I just want to play. Will have a go at Wolverine and Hulk tonight as those are two characters I'm really wanting to play.
Wolverine number 10:
Yeah gotta delay it quite a bit, put a bit of a gap between each hit and try and land the air S as low to the ground and as far under Ryu as you can. Then just time the A2 button (I find it works if you just double tap spam it really fast) and then finish the combo. Also make sure you launch when Ryu's closer to the ground so after the divekick wait a tiny bit first.
For I.M do what Alan said. You push them both together then cancel into smart bomb and the assist hits after the smart bomb allowing you to recover and launch. I think you might have been thinking the assist would combo after the H.
Oh yeah also if you wanna restart a combo say you did xfactor and failed it or you don't wanna watch a failed long as super push back+start and it will restart the thing quickly.

This shit needs to be bold and scrolling ala UMEHALA text. Thanks for the tip
Nag g bold this shit up. Do half the combo. Then pause it and get the other inpust down. Then pause it again if your like me and you blazed and forgot what you just looked at. You can just pause it after nearly every move. Then unpause it and do it fresh and easy baby. Understand it's Weazzy baby. I bet Mason didn't even do this cool trick ay. Wada scrub.
And he's right about the closest to the ground thing i was just gonna say that. But also, start the air combo on the way up. Not straight away , but like a small pause and make sure it's kinda on the way up.
ANd Graeme kieeennt. I just came off those missions as i wanted to pay those chars. Wolverine is pretty balla. And Hulk as a fucking 793 dmg corner combo off one metre. The approach is pretty ballls. He has no way of mixing up or anything ay lol. Pushblock and shoot him with something too good against him i am thinking. But I duno. Someone push a button they getting bodied.
I kinda cheated doing wolverines mission 10 :P.
Buff yourself with the berserker charge down down super (the purple flamey shit) before u start the combo, i found it makes u faster so the air combo doesnt go as high and u fall down quicker making it easier to hit the assist. Got it on my 2nd try doing it this way.
Thanks Mason, i was hoping you would chime in!
Good tips from everyone tho, Weazzy with the most pro approach and Rafifty's method is pretty banging too. Haha. Shot boys.
Damn i finally did wolverine level 10. Mason's tip about the initial launch being lower to the ground is what did it i think.
After the dive kick i would do M H S one after the after before going up for the air combo, but i found slightly delaying the launch after M H helped so that (whoever the guy is in the mission, it isn't ryu) didn't go as high in the launch so i could jump just as high as him to do the M M H S before player 2 assist.
Still, i think it was mostly a fluke i got it. :P

Ahhh.. this was is it. Thanking you.
General question, is wolverine by far the easiest to complete the missions with? Everyone else so far seems so much harder. :(
Well when I looked at Wolvie's number 10 for you it seemed easier than the rest. And yeah I think I was saying Ryu cause he mighta been the dummy in the I.M trial and I got them mixed up or something.
Which one are you trying to do?
Also VesperArcade on youtube has videos of every trial + hands. Might be another place to look when you're stuck for timing.
Oh cool, i found some on youtube before but i couldn't find all of them. Will search for that name, thanks. :)
I've been working through hulk/IM/CA next as i'm just going down the line, but the timing on those 3 seems much stricter than wolverine.
That bouncing people off the wall with CA, i get that maybe 1 out of 20 goes, then fuck the rest of the combo cause i'm not expecting it
to connect. Fark. Haha.
Maybe that's a sign i should with wolverine as a point man cause he's easier. LOL.
Just an FYI for others, i came back to the missions before and the level 10 and IM stuff etc wasn't there anymore cause i turned off the console from inside the missions!!!
I assumed it would auto-save every time you complete a level but i guess not.. i think you have to go back out to the main menu for it to actually show the "saving" crap.
Oh well, at least it didn't take much to get them again, still annoying. Haha.
Oh yeah forgot to mention that. Also if someone invites you to a game make sure you leave first or else they won't save.
Fuck yer that would suck. I did that on sf4 lol.
Man i'm upto Deadpool mission 9. And fucking Thor won't hit chun li after air combo. I'm trying to be low as to the ground too. Sometimes i'm lower than the guy on the youtube vid. Noob game is owning me hahahah.
edit: Nevermind realised there was a different attack after that. FUck.
Got up to mission 10 on deadpool and thought fuck this shit haha. I don't even think it's really practical.
That combo's decently practical cause it's so easy. What part are you struggling with?

Oh shit really lol. Fuck. The assist part is just annoying. Get sore fingers. And i can't be fucked memorising that shit anyway. especially when i don't play on playing him or using any stupid assists like that haha.
Just push the assist at the same time as you push M. Pretty much time it all together 1. 2. 3. 4. Being L, M+Assist, H, special move and them bam launch into the rest of the combo which is pretty darn easy.
Yer i can't be fucked. I will just learn the combo's from SRK and shit. Those ones are bound to be unpractical.
Man, I was stoked when I completed Wolverine. Only to read this and find out he's easy :'(
It still took me hours. :( He just seems to be the easiest i think. Well if i can complete his missions he MUST be. :D
Zero's Mission 10 is giving me some grief. Is there any tips for this? Can get the assist link like 1/10 times but never both within the one combo.
Ok well you wanna finish the air combo as close to the ground as you can. You're not otging with your assist character you're otging with your move then the assist hits them so you can do f+h, s....
Make sure your initial air combo lets the j.h hit at least twice (3 times is optimal). And jump first then push assist then do your otg special, time it like that for both assists in the combo.
If you plan on using/learning Zero in all his combos his h, f+h and j.h are all 3 hitters so try and always get the 3 hits in before cancelling to the next move.
And keeping with the training mode kinda thing here. I just figured out that you can hold down which assist you want and select and start to reset with that assist. AND if you hold which direction you want to be facing while pushing select and start you will reset on that side.
Oh wow nice I didn't know that. Also if you want to set the dummy to do stuff you have to set it up in your button config. Since you most likely won't need all 8 buttons (10 on pad) you can use the others for dummy stuff. I especially like the option to just control the dummy instead of recording. So say you wanna test counters to a full screen HSF or Dante's super you just hold the button to control the dummy and input the hyper, then let go and try punish with your character.
Good tips, thanks guys!
Haven't even had a serious go at missions yet. Still trying to finish the game with everyone. Takes ages. -_-
I did it all yesterday. Just chuck it on very easy damage highest and if you want lead with sentinel. Each round will end in less that 20 seconds on the timer.

That would be too easy. I like to use it to level up a bit, though I might do that to beat it on Very Hard with everyone.
I've got the timing for assists after air.s but doing assists mid combo is still not clicking :<
Well all mid combo ones just push them at the same time and usually there will be another move before the assist hits. Ie if you have l, m, a1, h, special move.... push m and a1 together and then continue with the h and then special move and then the assist will usually hit after allowing you to recover and extend the combo.

Yer if they hit before you gotta plink it.
I thought you had to plink them as well, cause it didn't work for me at first. But then Alan said just to hit them together and now everytime I try to help someone with one I go into mission mode and push them together and it works...
Yer i did that for most of them.
But i was doing somebody's i can't remember at Hypershitfaces house and it was working perfectly but the moves at the top weren't going away. I was wondering wtf is going on. Then i realised i had to plink it. In actual match you don't have to, you can push them both. But in this particular mission you had to for the stupid mission.
That's why I like how in ssf4 you could do any combo as long as it reded out the combo that's asked.

Hypershitface, ouch. That names catching on haha. You should have done that fucken dogs missions for me. Hers are the only ones im having trouble with. Her weapon changes are ridiculous. Yea i found out today the dog is a she.
All her weapon changes in mission mode are done off of crouching attacks iirc. You can buffer your weapon switch off of the crouching motion. so say the combo is c.L, c.M, c.H, weapon switch, then instead of holding the stick down the whole time, during the c.m, return the stick to neutral before doing the c.H motion, then after you do the c.H, if you did it right, you should just be able to hit down and whatever attack (usually M in the trials) to get the weapon switch out. Thats how I did them anyway.
All i need to do is Jills very last trial then ive completed everyone. Its so fkn annoying >:( definetly my hardest
Yeah, can't move that stick in any direction at all. It's so annoying.
Anyone got any tips on jills last mission. I hate knowing theres only ONE left and I cant do it. feels so incomplete.
Any part in particular you're having problems with? the flip/cartwheel loop? Personally I found the best way was to just practice the combo because you can practice the loop but there's not alot of hits before it and it's easier to start from a crH anyway.
there's a pretty specific timing to the moves so learning that is the best thing to do, obviously you have to have accurate inputs as well so putting on inputs might be useful (not something I used). Once you're in an animation you've got more leeway with the inputs since she wont dash all over the show.
It was the second to last one I got, last one was Storm mission 10 I reackon they patched that and made it easier to hit the blizzard. Either that or I was rubbish when I tried it during my first run at the trials.
Yeah just gotta get your inputs really accurate, any tap in a direction and she goes dashing around. I found it easier to do the cartwheel loop as fast as I could, but you can also do it pretty slowly.
yea, jills last one is annoying, like massi4h said, just need to be as accurate as possible. also turn inputs on and check your inputs to get clues of where you may be going wrong, thats how i found i was missing the forward of the qcf motion quite often, because i was trying to do it so fast :P
