How to use a controller on Street Fighter IV:

Use the controller.

[trillfire]

this will bruise the hell out of your thumb lol i been playing fighting games like this for years im finally about to switch to arcade sticks, cus i have a good bit of extra money n time on my hands. very hard to do moves like this, even worse on hand held systems cus they r so small. turned my thumb purple plenty of times with this style of play lol

[blackjaguar324]

When you're using the D-pad, is it better to slide your thumb or roll your thumb?

[TheWolfLucario]

@blackjaguar324 I'm a fan of sliding, but you should go with whatever comes natural for you, as long as it works and isn't hurting you. Sliding is a bit rough on my thumb, personally, but I find I can use a thin layer shirt between my thumb and the d pad to both assist with the smoothness of the motions and cut down the friction against my thumb. That's what you call redneck ingenuity. :P

[Mick0Mania]

I find it very difficult to pull off moves which you have to hold down a direction before tapping the opposite one and hitting an attack button. Just... hard.

[Malachi01]

isnt it easier with the pad?...

[GuitarGasmProduction]

@Malachi01 depends on personal preference, there is no downside to using either stick or pad comparing them 1 to another. the only real difference is fightstick vs controller

[mrpepermentman]

next person to make fun of the south burn

[RaleWesker]

I dont know what is big Z in red circle in control panel when i play trening and i try to hit that combo but i don know which button to i press.is that a combo or some special button,plz someone answer me.Can you THEWOLFLUCARIO help me?

[TheWolfLucario]

@RaleWesker That's the input motion for forward, down, downforward. What I call the 'dragon punch' in this video.

[RaleWesker]

@TheWolfLucario TNX,I REALIZED THAT 1 DAY AFTER I WRITT

[saturos13]

you from the south?

[TheWolfLucario]

@saturos13 Born and raised.

[BrettSchall]

@TheWolfLucario Yeehaw.

[Hereticalrein]

THANK you I got the quarter circle stuff easy but the shoryuken was just confusing since its asking you to be fluid with the quarter circles so I was like how can I possibly do that fluidly and not miss my chance in an actual match

[ShinChanRules5]

When I got into Street Fighter, I had only played the SSB games as well, so I had to look up a lot of movelists and FAQs, so I kinda know how your friend felt.

[TheGlowingKnight]

...... which fucking idiot would not understand this from the pause menu??? I mean damn, no offence, but the game is simple enough.

[binh25121985]

why would u make a video like this,ur friend must never use a controller in this life... if it combo then yeah but how to do hadoken,just tell him look at ur feet and shoryuken ,then u tell him that how u do the move while he knock out hahahhaaha

[sonicblast2404]

well i started with killer insting...cinder 4life

[adam1989393]

the D pad is much more comfortable to use

[rabbitmickey82]

You touched me by the act of making a video to teach your friend. This effort protrays a friend truely worth getting to be with.

[TheWolfLucario]

@rabbitmickey82 Thanks so much for your kind words!

[Eric858]

LOL I never realized that (according to these comments) so many people could have trouble with this!!! I first played a fighting game called Bloody Roar 2 with all the rolling and (easier to do) combos from mixing directions, punches and kicks so this came naturally to me- almost. I've never seen anything quite like E.Honda's/Mr. Bison's/Chunli's Ultra that includes that weird left right left right thing.- Or having to do a full circle.

and I guess ssmb is all easy fighting.. but its my fav game

[KissChad]

Get a arcade stick.

[MultiMAGICDAN]

hey man is it better to use the d-pad in ssf4 or the analog

[KissChad]

@MultiMAGICDAN D-Pad

[mashinka93]

@MultiMAGICDAN use the d-pad

[unity2012]

Thank you for the video! Very Helpful. 

[Azeon91]

is it possible to play with a ps3 controller in pc ?

[MoTheF3ar]

@Azeon91 nope but u can use a 360 controller if u have one

[seto19]

@MoTheF3ar That's not true.

[seto19]

@Azeon91 You can.

[hazer2011]

hey i got the pc version so help me out, i need the ps3 controls to get a basic idea of how to configure, i mean reply me with the default controls of the ps3 controller

[thefarter127]

HEY MAN! YOU JUST EARNED YOURSELF A SUBSCRIPTION FROM ME!!! YOU HAVE TAUGHT ME SO WELL!! BECAUSE OF YOU I WON THE WEEKLY GAMING TOURNAMENT AT THE INTERNET CAFE! THANK YOU SO FRICKEN MUCH MAN! fRICKEN LOVE YOU!!

[ultm8ninja]

@thefarter127 What is Internet Cafe? (PM me the answer plz)

[sayanskywolf13]

im playing to marvel vs capcom 3, it is way more simple than sfIV BUT im having trouble with the shoryuken comand :/

i can do it but some times it just does the hadouken(in the case of ryu)

it is so fustrating specially on mission mode -___-

any suggestions?

[Valgua77]

@sayanskywolf13 I have the same issue... I would really appreciate some advice.

[TheWolfLucario]

@Valgua77 I'm probably going to try to make another 'how to' video, since it seems to be being requested. Most people seem to be having trouble with the dragon punch, so that'll possibly be the main point of the video. When it will come, I don't really know. My tips, first of all, is to use the D-pad, if you can. Secondly what you basically want to do is do a Hadoken in reverse, and then forward, in one quick smooth motion. That should work, practice makes perfect.

[TheWolfLucario]

@sayanskywolf13 See the reply I made to Valgua.

[fpsisfun]

deejay ultra 2 is impossible to do with the ps3 controller d-pad

[TheYTChronicles]

Hey, could do me a favor? I just bought the game on Steam for the PC and am planning on using my PS3 controller. The only thing I need to know is the complete button layout for the PS3 version itself! Then I can map accordingly. I wanna do that because I want set out it how it's MEANT to be set out. Can't find the layout anywhere, so I would really appreciate it if you could list them for me please!

[RABIDNATSU]

@TheYTChronicles square:ligh punch x:light kick circle:medium punch triangle:medium punch R1:hard punch

R2:hard kick l1:triple punch r2:triple kick

[TheWolfLucario]

@RABIDNATSU Except the last one should be L2. :P That sounds about right. I always modify mine so that the weak and strong attacks are on the controller's face buttons.

[TheWolfLucario]

@TheYTChronicles Check out Rabid's list and my comment.

[GreenGold33]

lol I remember when I was a kid and my I started playing fighting games with my friends. Took my a while to figure this stuff out because I was so use to Super Smash Brothers style play.

[TheWolfLucario]

@GreenGold33 Super Smash Brother's controller layout is so dumbed down, in comparison. It's still great fun though. >=)

[jj19as]

u made me go tu sleep sorry :T

[RTKTS]

Thanks, this tut really helped alot, i used to not even be able to do hadoken but now im doin all the moves =D

[TheWolfLucario]

@RTKTS You're welcome, I'm glad I could help. I honestly didn't expect this video to do so well. I've been playing games like these since SFII:Turbo, so it mostly comes naturally for me.

[jakeypearce]

How to 360

[TheWolfLucario]

@jakeypearce I'll include it on my next video, if I can... whenever that ends up being. XD

[mirko2824]

the video can not helps many but for some who play the first time is good I the only bud that hunters are to win the world championship if one or the european championship or greek with mister baison and get these super you only know there is are some tricks of the dan

[DarkAngel7292]

I subscribed for no reason.

[dcshoe650]

lmaf u wrote it down

[icyxwindz]

how do you do ultra combos then?

[TheWolfLucario]

Unless I'm mistaken, most of them are the same as the super combos, but you need your 'revenge' bar at least half full, and you press triple kick or punch.(All 3 kick or punch buttons.) All moves are just a combination of the basics of directional movements and button pressing.

[icyxwindz]

@TheWolfLucario o ok thx i got it aha it was confusing cause i thought it meant to press the punch or kick three times but yea thx

[TheWolfLucario]

Just press more than one punch or kick button, if I remember right. It requires one special bar.

[rashean]

what about when move says charge?

[TheWolfLucario]

Hold the direction you need to charge for at least 2 seconds.

[asert11]

:D i go school PS3 (Street Fighter IV) goodbye

[mac100100]

I prefer D-pad. Keepin' it old school and all.

[yoBEENLY]

Oh for the Dragon Punch, I just do a Z formation on the Analog. Is that a proper way?

[TheWolfLucario]

Kinda. Like the controller version of a Z. :P

[21eny]

Nice vid  Wolf

[harrystcecilia]

great vid. ive been having problems with the controls too. it would be great if you could do some more moves and maybe ultras

[TheWolfLucario]

You still having troubles? I guess I could make a new one, but only if people need it.

[sigmahunter06]

Nice video, I rememnber first playing Street Fighter II on the SNES. I tried to hard to do a haduken, when I finally ended up doing it, I got all excited and jumped for joy! Lol the memories.

[TheWolfLucario]

Yeah, the moves were way more difficult as a kid, but also more special. :P

[tok1879]

yeah, me too, my first fireball was a sonic boom though

[BlackJayJay45]

is it still easy to play it on a ps3 pad?

don't wanna buy one of those fightsticks -.-

[rubyguy1]

Now he can play his Street fighter! You saved the day.

[HongoCinco]

Yes, yes I can. :D

[HongoCinco]

I cannot thank you enough for this video! This comes in hand for a Street Fighter noob like me. :D Just have to have fast fingers for combos.

[TheWolfLucario]

You'll get it, it just takes time.

Oh, and you're welcome. ^^
