Buttons = Attack buttons for them.

Blazblue would be a 3-button game.

But for most characters the D button IS an attack.

And in P4U's case, ALL character's C and D buttons are attacks.

Virtua Fighter has only 3 buttons and one of those is Guard button

and most people consider it one of the most Techincal/deep fighting games ever

Maybe they weren't well informed on it? I have to be honest unless you're religiously following every piece of information that comes out most won't know the mechanics and such since it's a new game. And it doesn't help that news and info on it isn't exactly what I call consistent.

It's not really to give them an excuse for making fun of it (since if one doesn't know anything about something it's probably better not to talk about it in the first place) but just some food for thought.

It's not like I'm worried about it or anything, and you're right, it's not like they should auto know everything. That being said, if you don't know everything you shouldn't be speaking like you do to thousands of people.

But enough of putting meh commentator knowledge on blast, whos ready for Loketest round 2? I'm trying to find a reliable source going to take videos but my last source is being really flaky (and they didnt even deliver last time). Hopefully we get some more comprehensive info as well though I'd trade all that for a video of anyone who isnt Yosuke, Yukiko, Kanji, and especially Yu and ESPECIALLY Chie >.>

Pretty cool stuff. Wish there was a transcription for the combos somewhere, though.

YES

FINALLY

VIDS FOR THE REST OF THE (revealed) CAST

Thanks Jourdal!

I'm pretty sure Naoto's instant kill combo is just throw>C (for throw followup)>Mudoon :v: Not too sure about the other, though being able to hit confirm into 5 shots (which I guess confirms that her gun holds 5 bullets instead of 6) into silence super looks legit.

And very nice stuff w/ the sprites shtkn! :yaaay:

Teddie says "Nani ga Deru Kuma" while tossing his items! My Faust is soooo pleased with this!

His Awakening Super doesn't work the way I expected it to, so you guys should make some edits to your Teddie threads.

I love how Mitsuru's Persona attacks don't simply shoot ice, but pull the enemy in with the whip. She instantly got some awesomeness points for me.

And Akihiko's Maziodyne has even better AoE than I expected. I will be very surprised if there is a single spot on the screen where it doesn't hit you, which means that Akihiko gets a free ticket to your face with it.

teddie's super is just him on the giant ball. the falling 'meteors' (actually those wooden water bucket things you see in japanese hotsprings) were from the previous item he threw. you can pause through the video and see that he tosses it right before he does the super.

see here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=I2IOg1eCBWk#t=0m29s

also, mitsuru's slash/cut super looks pretty meh, i'm disappointed. and that announcer voice ("KO") sounded really terrible to me.

@blargh: yeah, that's the only combo I can figure out, lol.

@sowl: as shtkn said, teddie's awakening super is just him on the ball. the whole idea is that the rain of bombs (ala unlim. plat's bomb item) forces the opponent to stay on the ground during the awakening super's startup/movement. allows teddie to actually connect with his very obvious unblockable super. unless you meant something else?

I really enjoyed seeing Mitsuru kick her opponent, for some reason.

edit: I think I see what was confusing. Adjusted it a little.

Yeah, I understood that the burning tubs are one of his items (since I've read the list). I just thought that he's going to spring from under ground, but he just runs across the arena instead. Mistranslation and poor Japanese does that to you.

Yay aigis footage! Her orgia mode looks like it allows her to stay on the ground, but replaces jumping with flight. And after watching the second video, it looks like aigis can chase after people. Awakening super looks dissappointing, but eh, whaddya gonna do? Akihiko looks super legit, and it looks like his tornado gauge increases with each hit after he uses a certain special (Not sure what thats called, but you can go into other specails when you use it. Think its kill rush). Naoto's mudo meter looks hard to tick down, but itll be fun seeing pros get it to zero fast ^_^

Aegis and Akihiko ftw.

I can already tell Aegis is gunna be a bitch for some characters... Wonder how Akihiko would do against her with his Persona's Power of Magnetism, and his little paralysis stuff.

btw, im loving how asw recycled some animation ideas from makoto on akihiko, lol

Yo... The Evokers don't have any bang to them. Makes me sad. :(

But yeah, what was Ceasar doing in that first clip?

"vortex" effect, pulling the opponent in toward Akihiko, literally forcing them to move back, which forces you to guard, which allows Akihiko an easier time catching you with high/lows.

Yeah, he appears on one side of the screen or the other, then runs clear across it, lol.

I'm actually surprised by how much damage that super does, seeing as how it's unblockable. I'm guessing you can't really combo into or out of it, if it does that much damage.
