We all have a big problem with dropping games as soon as their next version gets announced, even though sometimes it takes 6-9 months to get released.

When's the next event? I feel like playing some games.

 

We should all try to get something planned for this weekend at UAT. It's been awhile since we all just gathered and played some casuals, also the last ranbat is this weekend so Luke will probably be up here as well.

I'm actually available to play games thursday any time if you guys want. I can host if we can't do a more neutral location but I'm not turning on the ac for any of you bitches.

 

I will have drinks though.

Gonna be some hype matches, with an interlude of Tamaki's throws in-between.

I hope this all gets streamed.

 

It'll be a great experience.

 

...wait, why are you all looking at me weird?

 

As for streams, I would imagine it would be similar to how last year was (with Jyousa, TheBrett and Numakie streaming), plus I expect MadCatz to have some of the action on their stream as well. I think all of that is in the air still, since there's a lot that can change and I expect space to be super tight this year. Or, you could, you know, go to the event. :p

... and I expect space to be super tight this year.

One of the many reasons why I'm not going this year.

A lot of UNIEL news in the few past days, thought I'd share some of the fun with everyone here.

 

Dengeki posted a video demoing Phonon. They only show some really basic stuff, but overall her moves look cool and her throw is hot (also new stage).

Apparently French Bread has been doing a survey asking people what character they want to see added to UNIest from a list of characters that made appearances in the story. So looks like Phonon may get a buddy to accompany her in the next version.

 

System Mechanics :

- The person who gets the first hit in a round automatically gets vorpal (ehhhhhhhh).

- That OMB I mentioned earlier is called Cross Cast Veil Off. You need 100 meter and Vorpal to activate, knocks the opponent in the air and resets the current combo's wall/ground bounce counters. (Phonon does it in the video @7:20)

 

Also notes from the loketests are going up and are in this thread. Still just day 2 of the first set of loketests, so like any loketest take it with a grain of salt. Currently, good news for Brian and Justin, Akatsuki buffs. And Ruben's "bitch" looks like she dodges a bullet this time around.

Eltnum's nerfs so far don't matter at all, especially if we're getting new ways of using meter, but that changelist blew up overnight so I'm hoping there isn't anything more. I'd like to see some change that allows me to learn some new stuff.

Also, I was so glad to see the Phonon color swaps that remove the striped leggings, but why is she always in Ivy's serpent stance by default? Lol

Edit: so I also like the new look of the EXS gauge, and if Phonon's double-jump-cancel thing is her force function, isn't that already what Nanasty does?

Can't wait for all of the people to mash on Grim Reaper at round start and get a full combo right after it.

 

I think EX Sync Cutter losing invincibly hurts Eltnum a fair bit, but they seem to be taking away those sorts of high damage EX reversals in general, which is probably a net plus as that was basically DP FADC Ultra except you could hitcheck the DP before it comes out with CS. Fair and balanced! There's also a EX DP nerf, which really depends on how much they nerfed it but I can understand an adjustment there, when you could get 5500 damage with her by accident with it.

 

Also, are people pushing buttons this weekend or what?

I'll be at the ranbat. I'd really like to see some more people show up to these -- the turnout has been pretty low.

 

I'll also try to show up to UAT/Dippy's if anything's going on.

Posted

UAT is always open. That board game group didn't even use 206/207 the last 4 Saturdays I've visited.

Posted

Ranbat turnout is low because of multiple reasons. Mainly:

1) TGZ
2) $ to enter
3) UAT/Dippy's afterwards anyways

In regard's to Eltnum changes, the change list on this forum says that her 214C lost invincibility whereas other tweets I've seen list it as 421C so I'm going to guess there's a typo here because 214C has no invincibility that I'm aware of. It seems like a significant nerf but I can understand why. The payout was absurdly high with chain shift available. The 623C nerf sounds kinda eh but who knows how much its damage was nerfed. If it gets to the point where you're throwing pebbles at them at the end of a combo, then yeah, it's significant. But again, I can understand the change. The move had WAY too much minimum damage when tacked onto the end of longer combos.

 

Speaking of high damage reversals, I'm surprised that Linne's 63214C is untouched at the moment because there's a slew of changes that could be made to normalize the move but I won't list them again because I've already expressed my thoughts in great detail. Not really seeing the usefulness of being able to dash cancel her 214 series because it will probably just make the move punishable at that point. Overall I won't concern myself too much with a change list unless it's indicative of the final release.

 

As for tomorrow, I'm ok for UAT after the ranbat if that's where the action will be.
