SoWL Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 I didn't mean your explanation, just the general King Crimson discussion.
Pete278 Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 I'm sure Diavolo has Epitaph as well even if its not specifically mentioned because King Crimson sucks without Epitaph.
SoWL Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 I'm sure Diavolo has Epitaph as well even if its not specifically mentioned because King Crimson sucks without Epitaph. We can already see him using it on the scan, so it's totally going to be in.
Pete278 Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Skipping time is the most useless power ever if even you don't know what's going to happen. Also, for a good explanation of King Crimson, watch the Futurama episode Time Keeps On Slippin'. Will all makes sense afterwards.
StayFree( ' 3') Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Been following this game for a while now and I gotta bring up that despite CyberConnect's efforts to make this a more hardcore fighter it still seems very casual to me in terms of actual depth. Anyone agree/disagree?
SoWL Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 No one expects this to be a serious tournament-worthy fighting game, just something more than a JoJo-flavored NUNS. And so far, it seems to be just that.
Le Shad Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 The devs did talk about balance. There's a difference between "a balanced game" and "a competitive game", look at the Marvel vs games. As for actual depth? Time will tell.
SoWL Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 The Famitsu article is out, even including the Kira stuff that some people didn't expect (me being one of them): http://www.famitsu.com/news/201306/06034323.html I'll rev up the translation engine right away, expect it to be done in an hour or two.
Le Shad Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Are you kidding me?! Look at how cool Heaven's Door's hat is! And Cars' light blades look so awesome! Plus the squirrel. Is this the perfect game or what?
SoWL Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 (edited) And here we go. Some of Rohan's and Kira's translations are off, since I can't find the Duwang scans right now, and some of the quotes come from there. For instance, I couldn't translate Rohan's unique taunt properly. Kishibe Rohan (CV: Hiroshi Kamiya) Battle Style: Stand (Heaven's Door) A character featured in part 4. A popular manga artist who lives in the town of Morioh. Selfish and assertive, he does not care about people’s reactions when it concerns his creative thinking, making him look like a weirdo to outsiders. However, as long as he gets material for his work, he’s ready to face any hardships for the sake of being the ultimate artist. By using his Stand, Heaven’s Door, he’s able to turn people into books, read their experiences, and even make his own corrections. Command move: Safety Lock While his Stand is turned off, Rohan can perform this move by pressing Weak, Medium, or Strong attack button. If the enemy hits the picture Rohan draws in midair, he can seal off that attack. However, this effect ends after a certain amount of time or when Rohan is knocked down. If the enemy gets another one of his moves sealed, it overrides the old seal. Command move: I’ll mess your “Ability” real good! While his Stand is turned off, you can seal off the enemy’s Style button with this command move. This effect ends after a certain amount of time or when Rohan is knocked down. Normal throw: Rock. A throw that blows the enemy away by hitting them with “rock” from rock-paper-scissors. Command move: I’m growing! The Stand appears and unleashes a flurry of punches and slashes! After hitting the enemy, you can follow up with “Maybe I’ll incapacitate you” or “My body got blown away at the speed of 70 km/h !”. Command move: Maybe I’ll incapacitate you Command move: My body got blown away at the speed of 70 km/h ! By writing these words on the enemy, Rohan can send them to the opposite side of the screen at frightening speed. The taunt pose is sure to make the fans smile. Special taunt: I won't let a fucker like you mess with me! This taunt comes out when Rohan taunts in response to the opponent’s taunt. His Heart Heat Gauge recovers back the amount lost due to the taunt. Heart Heat Attack: I’ll take your “Reality” for myself! With this HHA, Rohan rips out a lot of pages out of the opponent. The damage is small, but he seals all their command moves for a set period of time. Great Heat Attack: Heaven’s Door Rohan writes down “I cannot attack Kishibe Rohan” on the opponent. This attack seals off every single attack, but only lasts a set period of time. Yoshikage Kira (CV: Rikiya Koyama) Battle Style: Stand (Killer Queen) (Sheer Heart Attack’s CV: Kashiwakura Tsutomu) A character featured in part 4. A serial killer who tries to live the life of a common salaryman who just “can’t help but kill people”. His Stand, Killer Queen, can turn any object into a “Primary Bomb” with a single touch. He uses a detonator to blow up the touched object at any time he wishes. Moreover, Killer Queen’s left hand has Sheer Heart Attack, a tank-like tracking “Secondary Bomb”. It relentlessly follows the target until they explode. Command move: Anything it touches is turned into a bomb Kira tosses a coin projectile at the opponent. In addition to exploding on contact, you can trigger the explosion again with additional inputs. By the way, make sure to stay away from the explosion, since it can hit Kira, too. Command move: Primary Bomb The opponent becomes a bomb with a touch. You can follow it up with “I’ll break you apart!” at any time you want. Command move: I’ll break you apart! As the name suggests, the opponent is blown up into pieces! Command move: You bastard! Killer Queen unleashes a flurry of punches! Command move: Whack! Command move: I’ll break you apart! After hitting the enemy with the coin bomb, you can blow them up at any time you want. Normal throw: You should try and learn from me Taunt Heart Heat Attack: I’ll blow you to smithereens! Kira strikes a pose with Killer Queen, and then beats up the enemy. Then, after blowing them up into the air, he triggers an explosion, blowing them away! Great Heat Attack: Sheer Heart Attack Sheer Heart Attack starts following the enemy, shouting “Over here!” and making a great explosion after finally reaching them. By the way, it cannot move if it’s hit by “3FREEZE” of Koichi’s Echoes Act 3. Cars (CV: Kazuhiko Inoue) Battle Style: Light Mode A character featured in part 2. The extremely intelligent leader of the “Pillar Men”. His Light Mode allows him to protrude shining blades out of his limbs, the so-called “Bright Sabers”. To overcome the Sun and become the “Ultimate Being”, he has created the “Stone Masks”. To obtain the “Red Stone of Aja” required to complete the mask, he fights with Joseph with everything on the line. Command move: Light Mode By activating this skill, Cars emits a bright light, making some of his attacks unblockable. Special move: He can pull blades out of his legs too!! Command move: A sneak attack, cruel and extremely skillful! Command move: I’ll smash you against the wall! Command move: That blood-freezing brightness! Command move: All that counts is to get the final victory!! Command move: Bright Saber Mode While in Light Mode, Cars can activate Bright Saber Mode by spending 1 level of Heart Heat Gauge. Not only do his blades become unblockable, but his command moves also gain other additional properties. Taunt Heart Heat Attack: Bright Saber After cutting the opponent, Cars pauses for a moment. Then, after they fall down, he rushes forward for an instant finishing blow!! Great Heat Attack: This is the birth of Cars, the Ultimate Being!!! By donning the stone mask with the Red Stone of Aja embedded inside, Cars evolves into Ultimate Being! As Ultimate Being, he gains traits of all sorts of living beings! Special move: This can’t be…!? Cars transforms his arm into an octopus tentacle and raises it upwards. Guard The attack is blocked with a crab-like armor. Special movement: Flight By holding down the button, Cars can move freely in the air. Of course, he can still attack while flying. Special movement: Air dash Command move: It’s the Ripple you little piece of shit!! For the Ultimate Being Cars, even the Ripple breathing is possible! He can focus the energy gained from the unique breathing technique and attack with it!! Command move: Genetical data transformation Cars can attack the enemy from afar by transforming his body into a squirrel or a piranha. He can even do it while in midair. Edited June 5, 2013 by SoWL
ChimeraCoinFlip Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 It's mandatory for every character in this game with a stand, and some without, to have a flurry of punches in one manner or another.
Le Shad Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Ultimate Cars with the animals as keepaway? Well dang.
Jocelot Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 Kars (Cars?) seems awesome. Unblockable blades, air dashes and the like... and I was hoping they'd fit the vampire squirrel in there lol. Can't wait for this character.
Pete278 Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 I don't really understand what depth people are looking for from a game if not from neat mechanics and to me, so far, the mechanics seems no less casual than BB, really. I still stand by my 'as long as its not overly random (like Brawl's tripping) and fun, the game has potential competitively' stance.
Ichipoo Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 Been following this game for a while now and I gotta bring up that despite CyberConnect's efforts to make this a more hardcore fighter it still seems very casual to me in terms of actual depth. Anyone agree/disagree?At least there appears to be more thought into the game's mechanics that brings about a solid engine.
MikeStrider Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 After I posted these the JJBA community site crashed lol. Online mode confirmed. And "30+ characters". http://www.dotup.org/uploda/www.dotup.org4254644.jpg http://www.dotup.org/uploda/www.dotup.org4254591.jpg http://www.dotup.org/uploda/www.dotup.org4254604.jpg http://www.dotup.org/uploda/www.dotup.org4254610.jpg
SoWL Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Aaand it won't open for me. Did anyone re-upload it somewhere else?
MikeStrider Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 (edited) That's weird, maybe a browser problem? But I could do that now. http://imageshack.us/a/img507/9507/ad1b.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img402/203/ad2rb.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img600/5616/ad3oa.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img824/5421/ad4sr.jpg Edited June 7, 2013 by MikeStrider
TekkamanArk Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 I wonder if that means we're done getting new characters.
MikeStrider Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 (edited) I wonder if that means we're done getting new characters. I doubt that. And there's another VJump mention coming later in the month. And they will most likely continue with the Jump scans through to release. Plus, there's a lot of important missing characters from SBR and Stone Ocean. Edited June 7, 2013 by MikeStrider
Final Ultima Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 That... and importantly, if they've stated that the game will have 30+ characters... why would they stop at 29?
TekkamanArk Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Hmm, Namco Bandai is announcing a new fighting game at E3. Anyone think it could be this game? I doubt that. And there's another VJump mention coming later in the month. And they will most likely continue with the Jump scans through to release. Plus, there's a lot of important missing characters from SBR and Stone Ocean. I know, I was just saying that because I thought we were beyond 30, and 30+ rarely means very far over 30 in game developer speak. That... and importantly, if they've stated that the game will have 30+ characters... why would they stop at 29? I hadn't counted and just assumed we were beyond 30 already.
MikeStrider Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 (edited) Katsuhiro Harada is announcing the new fighting game. What that would be is up for debate I guess. (His own game or something else like JoJo's he might want to promote himself) Edit: Free-to-play Tekken game http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2013/jun/08/tekken-revolution-new-free-play-game-announced-playstation-3-exclusive/ Edited June 8, 2013 by MikeStrider
