I'm not saying its not a good game. I'm not even saying its not technically a better game than 98UM. I just like 98 more. When I played 2002 I was just like, "WTF is this shit? Fuck this game." When I played 98 I was like, "Oh gawd I want to marry this game." -shrugs- Lets just hope XIII hits early next year so we can all just agree on that :P

EDIT: Its just like a lot of people LOVE XI. Its not bad but, I dislike a bunch of things about it. I'm just picky about my SNK games I guess.

I see what you mean with the XI comparison. XI seems fairly interesting to me, but if I wanted to play KOF, I'd play KOF2002. XI is more..NGBC esque. If it got a modern release and local people started picking it up i'd probably play it, but not something I'd seek out and try to hype that much.

Not sure if these were posted some time back, but I found what could be some good future AH3 resources.

A Wiki detailing a good few characters and Arcana.

Aparently, every Friday this guy will comment on various AH matches and explain things. There are some recorded vids here too so I'll be looking at those like... right now.

:toot:

There's only one robot in this game and so far (that I know of, some characters haven't been detailed a lot). I don't like her much right now though. :(

You mean Mei-Fang? Gameplay wise, she's pretty sweet. At first you're like, ok, shoryu, BAAHN KNUCKLE, fei-long-esque rekka, overhead special in air, and some weird backflip thing, whatever. Then you realize her backflip is special cancellable and has a lot of invincibility, and it actually has 3 phases, ground/air/ground, and the rekka's first/second hit can special cancel into the backflip. Can be extra awesome depending on your arcana's specials. dattt pressure. Plus, her rekka can alternate buttons, like SF2(but not sf4) fei-long. Like using heavy for first hit, light for second, medium for last, or whatever.

Her normals are great, too. Lots of + frames, 5c is like 7 frame startup, 5e has a good clash box. Also, her normal throw is good for resets iirc.

While she's not a robot in the same way that lamda/nu are, Catherine pilots a big robot thing and looks fun. Do you want me to dig up the videos that had beastly Caths that I posted before?

I'll probably main clarice and sub mei-fang, judging by my experience with AH2. May mess with Nazuna, too.

Having a mech =/= robot character for me. Also, she's a grapple user, right? Not my style. :x

I do like Petra from what I've seen of her. Pretty much any character with lots of zoning/spacing options is my thing and I'm seeing a few potential starting points, so it's all good.

Cath has grapples but she's not a grappler in the same way Zangief, or Tager is.

EDIT: What Mightfo said. Even Kira doesn't really feel like Gief. Arcana Heart is really different. Next meetup I could bring my copy of AH1 and you could check it out.

> Begins watching the second match in the first vid

My comments: "Wow." "What the..." "Holy Shit!" "Holy Shit!!" "HOLLY SHITTTTTT!!!" :v:

And from that point on I was/am still in a constant state of awe.

I now have two characters I am set on trying. Cathy n' ChainLady+Plant.

Which arcana was Cathy using?

Also, I'm only going to possibly be open for Sat only this week Jet. Sorry man. :(

Wind, which gives

-triple jump

-double airdash

-quickfall

-boomerang

-little wind vortex thing you can place in the air which is sort of a stationary trap

-boomerang super, nice for air combos

-lets you jump cancel 5e/2e on block :3!

Dunno what it's extend force is, look up Tempestas on the wiki since it uses their "real" name instead of the element names people actually use. -.-

Also, those plants that plant arcana deploys hit low. UNBLOCKABLES

And if you couldn't tell, that vine thing plant arcana does is gdlk

Oh yeah, love dat vine. Heck, I'll drop all my tech classes and become a botanist right now.

The Arcana listing section has the real names but if you scroll to the bottom of almost any page, the elements are listed there.

That sucks man. Get well soon.

Also, I got my QDs for buttons. Since Plastick still isn't looking too hot, I'll probably start taking the pcb out in preparation for the ProjectBox Stick that still needs a name...

Edit: Also, since I need screw-in buttons for this and future projects, would someone like to buy/trade for my snap-in Sanwas? Some have solder on them right now but I can clean em' up easy.
