Anyone else getting a bit tired of being spammed to death by Hadoukens, sonic booms and the like in SFIV?
Is this your first experience with Street Fighter? Personally, I consider it spam too, but you can thank tourney players for making it acceptable. If you ever watch Diago play his Ryu, you'll know what I mean. It's obviously a viable strategy, one that is well accepted by the community, but it doesn't necessarily make for entertaining gameplay. That's why, if you're in to have fun, you'll need to find friends who are also playing for that reason, not just to win.
Daigo doesn't spam though, even if it may look like it.
There's a reason why the same competitive people who have trouble winning against Daigo can easily trash any other Ryu player who spams hadoukens.
Anyway, you really should just play on Pro mode, fewer spammers and no impossible combos due to no charge from Lite mode or whatever.
And players who just spam projectiles mindlessly are fairly easy to beat.
Either jump straight up to evade, use moves to go under/over, or slowly walk up while blocking.
Spammers have rather predictable timing.
