Postulio Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 This would be great, but that still doesn't stop turnover players from being labeled "beginners" despite having skill from previous games, nor does it exactly prove all that consistent a method of boosting rank. IMO, you shouldn't "rank up" from Beginner to Amateur (or in this case E5 to E4) until you can consistently beat at least 10 E4 players or more... Nor does it guarantee an A1 player won't end up fighting an E5 player...often that stupid Capcom matching system never works...nor did it work in BlazBlue. If you can't find an opponent of your rank, you shouldn't be forced to fight lower or higher ranks just to keep the search engine running smoothly. It should say "rank not found" or something unless you specify to ignore rank, and if Player 1 chooses ignore Rank, Player 2 who chose to play according to Rank shouldn't be forced to fight him. Players who Ignore Rank should only be matched with other players who Ignore Rank. somewhat true, but this is still much better than having the online system used with other games.... where you have a record of 50W 10L and are in the same category of another that has a record of 50W 45L. btw, the ranking system in this game seperates itself even further... "The other area is dedicated to the Ranked Match. It will not always active: will light up about 2 times a month, for a few days." source: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=34266981&postcount=909
iw2ma Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 the only reason i don't want those to be real is because i don't want them to MAKE ME have 2 mains. Kilik and Xiba together is just forcing my hands here.

And i don't think i'll have enough good players in my region with good connect) what about netcode and player matches, no news? I hope it'll be better than kof.
Postulio Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 reports are that the netcode is very stable. considering online was a big focus for this game, its good to hear. but again, well have to wait and see for sure
iw2ma Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 Not to mention it is almost LITERALLY impossible to have good netcode for a 3d game. Our internet technology level isn't good enough as a RACE. Hell it isn't even good enough to truly have a stable online 2d fighter.... We need to gain lightspeed travel fast.
Urichinan Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 Those actually seem to be real, Elysium is in one of the JP trailers from about a week ago. And Daishi confirmed that the last few characters wouldn't be announced to due to story reasons (Like Alpha Pat, Omega Pyrrha, Kilik) so they would not be announced. When the guy said "Look at my mad photoshop skills" it's believed he was referring to the white boxes/scribbles he added to the pictures to cover some stuff up. According to him, Kilik and Elysium are just like Edge Master in that they can use any style, so all three are like Olcadan, Charade, Inferno, etc. Alpha Patroklos is supposed to be a modified Setsuka (No umbrella moves) and Pyrrha is the same as her normal version, only with Soul Edge. I don't think the playstyles are true, I wouldn't imagine that Namco could be as stupid as to add three charade characters, a clone, and a color swap. @Kimura Elysium is said not to be Sophitia, but that she has a similar appearance as fan service. :P
BoogE-Man Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 the only reason i don't want those to be real is because i don't want them to MAKE ME have 2 mains. Kilik and Xiba together is just forcing my hands here. Same here. But if Kilik is a mimic character, then it will be easy enough for me to drop him. I really do hope that Ely and Kilik aren't mimic characters though. 1 mimic character is enough, we don't need anymore than that.
Blade Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 And here I thought Inferno was a Mimic character. :/
Mr. Kimura Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 @Kimura Elysium is said not to be Sophitia, but that she has a similar appearance as fan service. :P Had me fooled on my phone. I don't remember Sophitia being that... robust. At least I got the kids to play as.
iw2ma Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 Same here. But if Kilik is a mimic character, then it will be easy enough for me to drop him. I really do hope that Ely and Kilik aren't mimic characters though. 1 mimic character is enough, we don't need anymore than that. Haha im not gonna lie i was saying i wish a few of the slots would be taken by Olcadan and Charade. I want to main Edgemaster and then if i lose, i counter with Charade. Think of the mindfucking i'd be giving my opponents. But ya if Kilik is an all around character though wiht his bo staff, i gots 2 mains. And i want Omega Pyhrra to have YUNs fighting style, so she can loosen up and spread them legs.
Vulcan422 Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Hilde and Raphael alts are classy as fuck. And then we've got Mr. Kara-I mean Yoshimitsu. Cannot wait for this game!
Xtra_Zero Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) Not to mention it is almost LITERALLY impossible to have good netcode for a 3d game. Our internet technology level isn't good enough as a RACE. Hell it isn't even good enough to truly have a stable online 2d fighter.... Whether a fighter is 2D or 3D has no impact whatsoever on its network load. Did anyone put that video back up? Edited January 20, 2012 by Xtra_Zero
Starlight777 Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 I am going have trouble picking between Raphael's two outfits. They are just that damn amazing to me. So who else here finds Hilde's second costume kind of cute? Also Xiba's second outfit was unexpectedly meh to me, I prefer the whole monkey king aspect his first one has.
Blade Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Bah, Hilde's is crap compared to her Princess Dress. I can't wait to mess with Create-A-Soul.
Starlight777 Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Bah, Hilde's is crap compared to her Princess Dress. I can't wait to mess with Create-A-Soul. Yeah the musketeer hat is cute, but I much prefer her Princess attire too.

Starlight777 Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 I like the style, but it kinda shows how stiff Tekken can be compared to SC animation wise.
Blade Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Seriously though, what's a guy gotta do to put Sol Badguy's headband, belt, and jeans in this game!
Starlight777 Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 SPOILER ALERT! LOOK AT IT! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aac2lUXuV7I
SolxBaiken Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 Bamco fucked up :\ Seriously we don't need 3 different mimic characters, we don't need alt ver of the siblings, and you could have made at least 1 more unique character with Alpha Pat :\
Mightfo Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 who cares limited resources and limited time are often the case with deadlines. welcome to reality not like the game is worth with the mimics. my hype level is the same also alpha patroklos looks cool. i'd rather have setsuka "proper", but who really cares
SolxBaiken Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 I'm glad that they had Alpa Pat at least play uniquely from his former self, but yeah a new character would've been nice, but I'm not really stressing him... It's the fact they felt the need to make THREE FUCKING MIMICS :\ could've just made those parts for CaS... Also I'm only slightly mad at Omega Pyr, because she seems to play a bit more like Cassandra (from what limited play we could see...). I'm really just upset at the 2nd point, I'm not saying I'm less hyped, just disappointed in design choices.
