[CP] News & Gameplay Discussion (Old)

[Surf]

Each of the Heroes at max would only have 3 special intros, not 4... unless they decided to comment on fighting themselves (which granted, Hazama did in CS iirc).

derp, why the hell did i count mirror matches. 10 and 30 then

[Moy_X7]

Well 4 heroes now so there should be 16 altogether. And a whooping 36 if they all get in the game. And do you mean the CS or CP intros

...

Since we're in the CP thread, I guess I'd like the CP intros lol.

[Hyuuha21]

Dat page 666.

Judging from Azrael's arcade ending, Unlimited Az is going to be a fucking monster if ArcSys goes the Gameply and Story Integration path.

There seems to be a Sector Seven theme playing during Tager/Azrael/Makoto matches. Can anybody confirm this ? And if so, makes me even more hype for teased playable Kokonoe

[Moy_X7]

derp, why the hell did i count mirror matches. 10 and 30 then

Haku vs Plat

Haku vs Haz

Haku vs Valk

Haz vs Plat

Haz vs Valk

Valk vs Plat

That's not 10...

Why do you find her interesting? The KoF style strike throws? The character design?

That's the one move that really caught my attention when I first saw him (other than those godly dashes). Dat range.

lol, getting hype for characters that may or may not make it to the series later down the road. I'll instantly main sub Saya the moment she's released, no matter how complex or weak she turns out to be

Yeah I like Bullet's design alot

sans typical fanservice

however once I saw her idle stance, and the fact that her sprite's hair sway a different direction than her artwork, I got turned off aesthetically lol, and yeah strike grabs are ALWAYS cool, I just love seeing her smack people around, but at the same time it's looking a bit too easy ; w; hopefully my scub execution will make everything harder than need be \o/ also her story, I'm always down to play a commanding character, and she may have had allies before, but now she's lone wolfing it ' ^'

Yeah I've seen some silly shit from Azrael...

One day Linhua...one day...and I'll only play Saya if she has Force Lightning and a command grab Force Choke ; w;

[Surf]

That's not 10...

Its very clear i don't know how to count.

i havnt seen those vids btw, their not in the video threads either. Maybe happened on a stream somewhere

[BladeOfJustice7]

Speaking of the Six Heroes, none of them seem to have a particularly friendly opening with each other. (I forget if Valk vs Haku/Plat is hostile). Even Haku vs Plat isnt a friendly opening, Hakumen damn near hit Plat with his sword when she tried to go up to greet him.

Even the "Great Avengers" have beef with each other for one reason or another. No group of allies get along 100%. But both the Avengers and the 6 Heroes give respect to each other.

Valkenhayn compliments Hakumen's defensive manoeuvres and damage output. Valkenhayn gives his leader extreme honorifics by calling him Hakumen-donno. if you even listen to his voice clips Valk just wants to get some good ol' sparring with Hakumen.

Hakumen praises his mobility and speed. Hakumen calls Valk, old genius/great wolf

Hazama, calls everyone a weak little bitch, oh wait... And calls refers to his leader as Hakumen-san, though we all know he's just trolling.

Platinum refers to their leader as well by Hakumen-san.

There is respect, but they'll always be beef. And their leader just happens to be an asshole lol.

[Moy_X7]

I'll only play Saya if she has Force Lightning and a command grab Force Choke ; w;

Yeah, she strikes me as a psychokinesis user, if anything, telekinesis at least. Force Choke a bitch :D

@Surfeit - Hahah, don't sweat it. I guess we'll just have to pray that the players don't skip the intros.

[SolxBaiken]

Intros are hard to get since most people wanna get down to business ' ^'

Ones I can recall off hand though:

Ragna vs Azrael

Ragna vs Jin (with a good listen to the character select theme)

[Surf]

Azarel seems to have one with Tager (I think), Hakumen, Ragna, and Valkenhayn from what I've seen. Wonder who else.

[.:TM:.]

I heard whoosing noises before someone skipped a Relius Vs Ragna intro so they may have one.

[STenSatsu]

Enough :3

In some matches I feel like I have taken off 1/3rd of peoples health bars with chip. Of course, then they realize they need to barrier, and then I end up getting them into the danger state. Good players strike a balance between eating the chip and using their barrier.

I need to start experimenting with drill oki into crush trigger set ups. :3 :3 :3

Actually, now that you've mentioned Danger state, did they take away the damage bonus you get for hitting people in Danger? I've seen a few people go into it (a good sign btw) but I don't remember thinking they were taking abnormal amounts of damage while in it. I may have missed this change during the other games since Danger wans't common outside of Kune lol.

[SolxBaiken]

Azrael vs Valkenhayn

Never get a full view of vs Hakumen that I've seen yet

[Moy_X7]

I'm just going to wait for someone to make a complete intro compilation video. There are WAY too many intros now for people to try and dig up lol.

[Surf]

Its basically Azrael attacking Hakumen for no apparent reason. Same thing he did with Ragna

[Zuranamee]

They are strong. He is strong. Therefore they must battle. This is his reason.

[Moy_X7]

Azrael also has a special intro with Hazama. He offers him a drink, Haz refuses, he smashes the bottle and tells Haz "I'm strong, you know?" or something like that.

actually i think that isnt a special intro, i remember seeing Azrael with bottle in his hand against someone else...cant remember who -_-;

To be honest, whenever they are in the danger state they have been one combo or a couple hits away from dying anyway, and Amane's damage is already variable based on drill level. Their life bar does flash danger when they are in the state but to be honest I am not sure if they take more. It is something I will try to pay more attention to in the future.

[Moy_X7]

I think you might be right. I mean they were pretty much talking at the same time and not taking turns like in special intros.

[SolxBaiken]

Yeah sorry Moy it's not special, just rare (since most times he kicks generic pudgy NOL officer ; w; )

Also since we're talking about Azrael....DIVEKICKS!

[Juunee]

He has a drinking intro with bullet as well, so I imagine it's standard and not a special thing with Hazama

ninja'd~

[LegendaryRath]

Are there any videos with just the new music yet? I want to put the new Lust Sin on my walkman.

[Kriegdrache]

Azrael's backdash laugh is the miracle of the universe.
