Mahjong Soul thread

2/4

They don't know how to play, they only got the game because there's a waifu

If you're not focusing on getting the most points possible out of every hand, you're playing wrong.

explain what's wrong with this for a retard please

if u win a hand with riichi u get to check ura dora
more kans = more ura

Attached: what's_up.png (813x906, 749K)

literally nothing wrong with pon rushing

If someone is in riichi it means they need only one more tile to win. If you need more than one tile to win it means that they're more likely to win first. By calling a kan you increase the number of dora in the game so you increase the average value of a winning hand. It means you're likely to be directly giving your opponent more points, which is the opposite of what you want to be doing when you're winning.

just rinshan kaihou bro lol

My first seven games feel like I am playing defensive 90% of the time cause I see no way to turn my hand into a winner, and I maintain 3rd by losing less than the guy in 4th. Is this basically what I should expect to happen most of the time, or play more pon chi madness.

What are the uma bonuses?

Come for a game guys.

If you win a hand you get a Dora bonus
If you win by calling a riichi on top of the Dora bonus, you get a hidden Dora bonus that's below (Uma) the visible dora

Also if someone dropped a tile you have 3 copies of and it passed, calling kan means you've just given up 3 guaranteed safe tiles to discard.

Can i reroll for bigger reward?

No because I'll get laughed at

How do you even learn how to play this? I can't figure out how to play card games like Solitaire or Poker. But I know how to play Pokemon or Yu-Gi-Oh.

The people in these threads play with common sense whereas the chinks online just drop trou and shit all over the table with their constant chiiponron bullshit.

I think the surge in the popularity of the Yakuza series has a hand to play in this.

it's very new player friendly compared to other mahjong players

I already did and spent them on gifts to turn into dust.
I need literally ONE more dust and just 2 bad games set me back 8k. It's way easier to lose copper than to gain it.

Can players do whatever action they want to do and get penalized (forgot the term) for choosing an action while in certain conditions in this game or does the game prevent players from getting penalties?

No, it's all context sensitive buttons that pop up. You can't do anything unless it's a legal move.

Yaku are in the tutorial and there's a full list of them in the ? button on the main page. It's not their fault people just skip to the gameplay.

It's more than that. It's a term used for players who are violating the rules of Riichi Mahjong. Calling Ron while under Furiten is an example of a violation. I was asking if players could do such things.

Just read this
and look at this yaku sheet

American mahjong is the funniest thing I've ever read about.

The round name (i.e. east 3, south 1) is in the center of the table, each round being 4 hands (east 1-4, south 1-4). East-only games are the first 4, south games are all 8. The game goes until you've finished all the rounds or when someone hits 0 points

Extreme levels of weeaboo. Being able to get completion in Yakuza and understand what was happening in Akagi was enough motivation for me to learn, but it turns out the game is actually fun.

from rewatching akagi seven times and playing against bots for a few weeks

Only go tanyao if you've got one or more dora. It's not worth it otherwise.

whats the best log in method? getting a log in code every day or linking, say, a gmail account?

I've been playing for 10 years since the first Saki anime was airing.

I linked my twatter and it just works

chanta is the biggest meme yaku in the game, it's even worse than chiitoitsu

You need to input an email to get the code, don't you? That's the same as linking an email address. The game should stay logged in automatically through cookies.

I did that but then saw that it wants access to your timeline/followed accounts and permission to post tweets for some fucking reason.

>not going chanta honitsu shousangen

Closed chanta is two han, stop destroying your hand just because you got a penchan in your starting tiles

What should I know going into this game? I rarely play browser games and it doesn't look like a gacha.

Just link your twitter account that you use to follow hentai artists.

I've been viewing it as some counterpart to Tanyou which is really cool.

Well, I riichi on my kokushi

Watch Saki and Akagi.

It is gacha but only for cosmetics, no p2w. If you don't know how to play mahjong you're in for a bad time.

The gacha is entirely cosmetic stuff. Gameplay is pure riichi mahjong. There's going to be a learning curve, more like a wall at first, but once you memorize some easy yaku, combinations your hand needs to earn points, it's one of the most fun traditional games.

It's not that difficult of a game. It just seems impenetrable from the outside. Read this guide and watch Akagi for motivation to learn more.

I personally use my Twitter so I don't have to enter my email or a password every time.

Attached: Universal Anime shrug.jpg (806x735, 76K)

It's disliked because it's difficult to form and yet is only worth 2 han, 1han if it's open. It's one of those yaku that you don't go for unless your hand really pushes you into it.

I've been wanting to play, but I couldn't find any real online mahjong and settled for playing the old PC98 games with stripping.
It looks like they're planning to go mobile. I assume you bind it to twitter and you can transfer from the browser to your phone?

Any mahjong games with a story mode
And optionally not waifu bait

>It's one of those yaku that you don't go for unless your hand really pushes you into it.
That's almost all yakus though.
I get your point but it's not something you should force. It's situational.

It's a lot harder to get since terminal tiles have half the potential of forming sequences, but it's worth an extra han if your hand is closed and you can combine it with yakuhai which is cool.

dealer sanbaiman is a pretty depressing sight

only in Gold room

dora tanyao is a high level hand
git gud

each turn you draw and discard a tile, there are tile combos that are worth points and you have to call when you have a tile combo that can result in a win- "tsumo"

also you can call riichi which means you are 1 tile away from a winning hand and will discard any drawn tile until you get that winning tile

google winning hands and just play against random AI until you kinda get it

end your life

It's balance. What if you hope for a comeback but got 8 terminals in your last dealer starting hand? You are going to gather that chanta. What if your kokushi choked? You remake it as a chanta. What if you want some extra han to your already open 123 sanshoku? what if you have two otakaze honitsu you can afford to fatten up? etc

>I always wondered what's stopping people from drawing their last kokushi tile, discarding the pair, taking the furiten, and waiting to draw one of their 13 waits for the double

True but I'd look at (YOU) after Saturday and Sunday worth of 10 hanchans of this nofunallowed slog trying to actually overcompete riichis + not any less luckbased yaku on a tournament. It's less balanced without the doras and you only really feel it if playing roughly the same people for more than one game.

I fucking hate the manga because it wastes 70% of the pages on tits and asses and the story goes at an unbearably slow pace due to that (~15 pages and the manga is not even montlhy because they skip it all the time, and even then most of the pages are just tiddies like I said)
The mahjong is still really good, though, so I unfortunately can't drop it forever.

The one thing that always bugs me. Why do they have different skirt length? Especially Hisa, she doesn't reveal ANYTHING. Why is this allowed? I am still confused.

Some wants to feel the wind between her legs I assume

It is long originally. Then the sluts roll it once or twice at the waist.

Hisa is the best girl with the potential to destroy all those fucking bitches at mahjong, so she doesn't need to be a gross slut.

The thing I am hating about the score screen is how it covers up everything. You have to wait until the replay to see the opponent's hand to verify whether you were right about their waits, or do it in the SPLIT SECOND it's visible.

Yeah, get in now since there's a lot of literal beginners who don't know shit.

Question! I'm about to start AI games.

Why does the dora indicator in MS not just show the current dora tile, rather than needing you to know its the tile above it. What if the dora is 1 of the man suit. Will the game show me the 9 instead and I have to know it loops around?

ALSO if someone declars Kan does that change the durrent dora tile or simply add another?

This was the first round, everyone probably had good hands since we were riichi at least I did. Last place then won with like 5 dora tanyao tsumo at the very last round due to another player's early closed kan and they had no riichi or anything. Sasuga ranked.

Is there a tutorial mode that explain everything?
I'm seriously gonna get it

Normal dora are fine since they are known from the very start of the match, everyone is aware of them and can strategize around them. Kandora are kind of okay since choosing to reveal them by making a kan is risky. Uradora are pure luck.

Honestly if anything uradora are more fucked up than akadora because at least everyone is aware of the akadora and incorporating them into a hand does require some decision making. Uradora are just straight up free bonus points on top of the extra han you get for riichi.

It's a really good game to learn since it helps you see if your hand is going to be furiten or if it doesn't have any yaku, and it has quick access to the yaku and stuff.

>Why does the dora indicator in MS not just show the current dora tile
Because if this were a physical table with physical tiles, you would only ever get 2 dora from any indicator.

Yes, it loops around.

Kan adds a dora indicator.

Yes, two days ago I started playing. Before I watched Akagi without understanding shit, today I make everyone I play with salty by just going for 1k hands and the retarded daisangen once in a while.

Any tiles that get dora bonus are highlighted automatically with a shine animation so you don't have to know shit. And a kan simply adds another dora

The only game who does the dora fuck up just like you want is FF16 and I know people who dropped that riichi JUST because of it. I'm sorry just get used to the system.

>Any tiles that get dora bonus are highlighted automatically with a shine animation so you don't have to know shit
Love this feature, I can never remember how the wind dora goes.

Remember not to furiten.
Make no calls unless you're going for toitoi or you're calling for a 3rd dora.
MS makes it easier to be defensive by showing you which tiles have been discarded and possibly safe.
You should get the hang of things after a couple dozens games

do the jap server tough boi, report back.

As funny as that is, the actual scene is honestly the single best scene in all of Saki.

Wait, there's no regional crossplay?
So why am I dealing with chinks every fucking ranked match?

Dora indicators are used because if the indicator was also the dora itself, there would only be three copies of that tile in the wall, even less if additional copies are in the dead wall, so less opportunity to include the dora in your hand.

The reason why games tend to display the indicators instead of just telling you which tiles are dora is because showing the indicators makes it easier to tell how many of a particular tile is visible. If there is 1 green dragon in the discard pile and 1 is the dora indicator, I know that a pon of the green dragons is now impossible. If the game instead displayed the actual dora, in this case the red dragon, I would have to think backwards to what the dora indicator would be to determine how many of that tile are out.

And yes, if the indicator is a 9 then the dora is the 1 of the corresponding suit. The order for wind dora indicators is E > S > W > N and for dragons it's White > Green > Red

Declaring Kan adds a new dora indicator.

its still slow

its regional but jp is in their own rooms until gold and above

It would have been just one dora. I wasn't even winning just at 2nd, due to another player's lucky big tsumo the round before. I thought the tiles finally responded to me after all day.

The gacha design and pricing for this game is retarded considering it's just cosmetics. It's 3.33 dollars for 1 roll and 30 dollars for 10 rolls, with a 5% chance of getting a character, and you can get dupes. Rolling gives you currency which you can use to buy characters outright, but you need something like 200-400 dollars worth of rolls to get enough to do that.

Most gacha games will at least drip feed you rewards at a reasonable rate to keep you playing even if you don't pay. But with this one the free rewards from normal play are so pitiful you essentially have no choice but to pay if you want to unlock anything.

Because cosmetics are fun for normal non-retarded people too and they'd get better player retention and spending rates if their prices were fairer and their free rewards were more generous.

stop being slow

Reminder that if your hand isn't at least a mangan it's basically not worth winning. You can't have a fast hand all the time and often people will get fast hanemans and smack you in the face, instantly erasing your painstaking tanyao nomi win streak.

Obviously you should win whenever you can but if you're winning nothing but cheapshit hands all it takes is one guy getting slightly lucky to erase all that progress.

they ate all the rhinos

ggs Nipah and Not!. fuck you youkai for dcing after getting ron'd off twice!

>Reminder that if your hand isn't at least a mangan it's basically not worth winning.
Straight up false. 3 han is an acceptable amount to aim for but even then there are plenty of situations where aiming for a cheap nothing hand is an acceptable play.

The butthurt about fast hands in these threads is really getting ridiculous.

What are some good mahjong anime\manga\drama about mahjong or even gambing in general that isn't made by Fukumoto and translated to english?

Any rooms open?

Too many kans.

Fast dumb hands are the worst. Its the last round and someone wins 1k to go up from their pathetic 5k score to you guessed it still last place and just ends the match in the most anti climatic boring way with no comebacks from anyone. Or the very first round.

Nothing wrong with 4 player riichi either. Other rules which voluntarily end the game right away like kyushu kyuhai and same wind tiles are fine, but ones which just nullify the hand right as it reaches a climax are lame. A player might have a legitimate reason to make a 4th kan or be the 4th riichi beyond just wanting to end the game, so the fact that it's forced is stupid.

That's an interesting tile you drew, user. Fits right into your hand, doesn't it? Go ahead and throw away that other tile that flowed out. Sure it's the only one of its kind on the table but it's fine, I'm probably not in tenpai anyway. It's only the ninth discard and I haven't even called riichi. There's pretty much no risk, so you can just throw it out without thinking if you want.

Wrong. Your pair can be winds as long as they arent your seat or the prevailing wind.
