Guilty Gear 2: Overture released

[lxMetalSonicxl]

Ike, if you're a noob like me that knows nothing about the game and beat it, you shall add me.

[Sol.Badguy]

I rarely find people to play with except bad guy ._.

Thats all you need

[Blackgenma]

no, blockhead can actually be useful if carried around as a body guard. it's a portable healing potion that hurts armors as a bonus. spirit seeker has no purposes as a bodyguard other than to get hit.

[Sol.Badguy]

Yea, but if the guys turtling with 1 ghost you can snipe him

[Blackgenma]

can it shoot ghosts that are not next to the one it is positioned?

[Sol.Badguy]

I believe so as long as its in range, I remember playing bel canto valley, having him on the bridge, and watching him snipe ghosts clear down below, the range on that thing is INCREDIBLE to say the least.

FUCKING INCREDIBLE MATCH!!!!!

I've never seen someone use all of Sol's units at once and not look like he doesn't know what he's doing.

EDIT: after I organize the GG2 video thread (expect it to be done soon) I will start posting the URL's for each and part of a match, so those who must rely on the nicovideo re-director can watch all the the matches in their entirety, no worries.

when will do this? soonish, in the next week or so. I hope I can reorganize the thread by tonight though.

EDIT(2): OK, I've got to admit, in a big servant tussle, things like blockhead and pencil guys aren't exactly useless. they aren't really necessary in 2 vs 2 (you only have 16 units to spare), and should be unlocked later than all of the other units in the tribe (primary units > support units), but they can really make a difference if you follow those guidelines. Sol army is less "laugh out loud" bad with them helping out.

I saw this in the final round of this match.

Kimera(So) vs RedolentChief(Ky)

Ganymede

he bested a squad with both a convict hammer and a heavens libra. bring lots of dispels.

[IkeTakeda]

how about u add me? :D

[Blackgenma]

I play on two of my frined's account, one who no longer plays, and one who has recently just started playing not too long ago. oI boundary Io - who I regularly play on the weekends, and when I'm on this name, I stay on ALL DAY, usually anyway. he himself no longer plays the game, but he was a really good player back when he did. Crabbas - he recently got the game and plays with aedyesr from time to time. play on this account when I have the chance. I mostly only play on the weekends. I'll add you if I can, no promises though.

[Oblivion292]

Ike, add Oblivion292. I bought the game again and will be playing furiously until I'm as good as I used to be D:

[Blackgenma]

GG2 video thread has been reorganized!

next step, I will post all the URL's for each video for a match. since many matches are recorded through out multiple videos that are linked at the comment section of the video, people who use the NicoVideo re-director don't get to see the link that leads to the rest of the matches. by posting each url for every part of a match, I will effectively allow those who use the re-director (link posted at the top of the GG2 thread) to watch all matches in their entirety.

I will post here When I finish this

GO ME!

Hi oblivion. you used to post over at gamefaqs. sold the game after blazblue came out? back then I was still a very bad noob at this game.

blast to the past

http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=942201&topic=49561145

can someone tell me how I can make random words hot link?

[Oblivion292]

LionHeart? I never got a chance to play with you did I? I sold it because I could never find my old router so I could never get on live. There are a bunch of new games coming out and GG2 is only great for online so...

[Blackgenma]

LionHeart?

I never got a chance to play with you did I?

I sold it because I could never find my old router so I could never get on live. There are a bunch of new games coming out and GG2 is only great for online so...

no no. I just pulled out that link because it's were I found you post. Tobal360 is what My name is on gamefaqs.

I'll be on tomorrow on boundary's name, and I'll be hoping to play with AJ and antikirby in the afternoon. I hope you can join us.

Edit: I see your post on gamefaqs. I don't know if I'm available on sunday or not, but we'll see.

Edit(2): in recent news, I changed the title of the split screen match I had up in the GG2 thread. I think the guy kiimera (the Sol player) is facing is hapi (the sin player). I thought it was somebody named Mitsuru, so I changed the title of the match accordingly (with hapi first)

just wanted to mention that in case somebody is wondering where the the video went now that it has a new name

match in question: http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm8702724

it's hard playing in split screen.

I just realized that both players constantly taunt each other during the match, goofballs.

[IkeTakeda]

Btw sonic your Friend list is full. Make room and add me :D

[Oblivion292]

Bah. I gotta learn how to use Ky reaaal bad. I'm also going to try and form my own strategy concerning Ky and his units/specialty. Doubt it'll turn out good though.

[Blackgenma]

boredom!

Gamefaq boards, greatest hits!

http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=942201&topic=50138609

he never did tell us how he did that.

what are you rambling about oblivion? just fire that stun edge and let the elbows fly.

[Oblivion292]

what are you rambling about oblivion? just fire that stun edge and let the elbows fly.

Not really. Except maybe the stun edge thing.

[Blackgenma]

his elbow is his best poke, many of the better Ky players use it heavily to hit confirm into a combo. his standard vertical slash is slow, and leaves him very vulnerable if dodged. oh yeah, and I was kinda being facetious there. but the elbow really is a good poke, don't ignore it. and don't get careless with you vapor thrust, jp players automatic vapor thrust all the time, and they start getting predictable with it. I mean, it's ALL they do.

[Blade]

Hey you GG2O experts I have a request. Can you help me organize GG2s tracklisting (vol 1) according to how when each theme plays in the story? It won't be perfect but I like continuity to my tracklisting when I sort them, and feel free to tell me where character songs play in volume 2. Thanks!!!

[Blackgenma]

uh, I don't want to get off topic, but I have both volumes of the soundtrack, and volume 1 songs already come in the order they play in the game. do you want me to post their order here? 1. day 2. castle 3. trouble 4. title call 5. prologue 6. first impact 7. chase 8. sign 9. Assault 10. mind 11. anxiety 12. fear 13. guess 14. visitor 15. conscious 16. Yomotsuhirasaka 17. mystery 18 frailty 19. freezing time 20. confession 21. witch disc 2 1. attack 2. right mind 3. sacrifice 4. vanity 5. emancipation 6. brainwashing 7. warts and all 8. shock report 9. crowds of enemy 10. crowds of ally 11. bonds and resolution 12. join struggle (is this supposed to be titled "joint struggle"?) 13. gate 14. sorcery 15. strange region 16. seriousness 17. dignity 18. omen 19. metamorphosis 20. silent wrath 21. friend 22. bravery 23. actual warfare 24. march 25. disadvantage 26. option 27. quest success 28. quest failure 29. Raise the Curtain 30. Walk the character songs actually do not play in story mode with the exception of raven and ky's theme. bravery - disadvantage are multi player songs that play during multi player matches. the stuff after with is misc. songs from the option menu to the title screen. vol 2 order. 1. Sol 2. Sin 3. Izuna 4. Dr. P 5. Valentine 6. Ky 7. Raven 8. misadventure 9. the re-coming 10. communication 11. that man 12. diva 13. curtain fall 14. the fate broke down 15. you have only to decide it.

[Blade]

Edit: I had to re-watch all the cutscenes in Overture from start to finish, but it was worth it, and I think anyone will appreciate the music more if they put the music in this order: Raise the Curtain Option You Only Have to Decide It Day The Fate Broke Down Quest Success Sign =First Sublimation= Castle Title Call Prologue First Impact Trouble Bravery =Sol is introduced to Soul Sinker System= Keep Yourself Alive (IV) Chase Assault =Attacked by Brainwashed Allies= Fear The Mask Does Not Laugh Guess Worthless As the Sun Above Clouds March Visitor =Illuriya is under Attack= Conscious =Discovery of Thinking Gears= Intellect, Reason, and the Wild Anxiety =The Truth behind the Discovery of Magic= Yomotsuhirasaka =Underwood Hill= Mystery =The Hidden Magic harvested from the Cube= Frailty =Sin's Anger= Ride on Time Freezing Time =The Sublimation of the Maiden of the Grove= Witch =The Inheritance of Justice= Confession =NANIII!?!?= Attack Right Mind =Ky's Decision= Holy Orders (Be Just or Be Dead) (IV) Sacrifice Vanity =Don't be a Chicken Breast!= Emancipation Hiruandan "An Inconspicuous Lamp at High Noon" Brainwashing Warts and All =Battle with Darkside-Sin!= Shock Report =Harvested DNA Key= Crowds of Enemy =The Visuel= Crowds of Ally =Ky's Army= Bonds and Resolution =Sin's Feelings= Joint Struggle =Back-to-back Battle= Communication Gate Sorcery =Impossible! The Gate Opened!= The Man Strange Region =Grit your teeth, Open your eyes, Remember your name= Seriousness Dignity =The Birth of a Girl= Omen Metamorphosis =Should've done this earlier= Silent Wrath =My headache's Finally Gone= Diva Mind =Couldn't go home= Friend =Being loud runs in the Family= Curtain Call Actual Warfare Disadvantage =Losing a Battle= Quest Failure Misadventure Walk The Re-Coming In retrospect of making this tracklist, I can say without a doubt that anyone who liked the symphonic music of BlazBlue will like this OST, even though initially we said 'meh' to Volume 1. Hope you guys like the list, I painstakingly looked it over. [/End off-topic blurb]

[Blackgenma]

blah, terrible games today, I got too comfy, thinking my elites would save me. I sometimes like to not use armors at all becuase players often counter my armors with mobile, invalidating my 420 mana. I guess I should just man up and spend the mana to buy them sometimes. meh.

Edit: I've got to admit though, I think I'm over my stigma of losing at 1 vs 1 now. this means I'll be challenging you more xithmos, I accept that I'll probably lose a lot.

[danceljoy]

I liked the list Blade, thanks for posting it.

[Oblivion292]

and don't get careless with you vapor thrust, jp players automatic vapor thrust all the time, and they start getting predictable with it. I mean, it's ALL they do.

I rarely use Vapor thrust anyway. I know about the elbow, it's approaching that's a problem. The poke doesn't have the same reach as the vertical and horizontal slash. Still learning.

[Blackgenma]

oh, not important by any means, but kou2007 finally sent me a message the other day. told me about how you can drop servants without stopping using the capture drop, which is canceled with a drift. he said he would teach me more stuff sometimes, which is pretty nice of him (I already knew about the capture drop though, I just didn't know what it was called, and I don't use it often because I suck) I wish he didn't leave his xbox on 24/7 though, so I can see when he's actually on. how does his xbox not explode?
