Tokkan Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Well, unlimited characters are only available to the bosses...so hm. Can the bosses even OD? Uh, but the bosses aren't Unlimited. At least not in the traditional sense of what unlimited characters were, which was super overpowered versions of the characters which may or may not have moves unavailable to the normal versions or even play entirely differently from the normal versions (like how Unlimited Makoto plays like Dudley). From what I've watched in streams and such, bosses as they are fought in arcade mode in CP are just faster and have OD always being max length regardless of health left. Arcade mode bosses don't even have the unlimited portraits we're seeing in the screenshots (see the Shoryuken article), which have darkened shading and glowing eyes.
Dawn of Musou Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Can't wait for Unlimited Overdrive Mugen Hakumen. Also I like how the artwork for the Unlimited forms is going to have that small change in detail (like a hole in Arakune's mask turning red and that purple aura) that makes sure you know you're screwed.
BlackYakuzu94 Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Can't wait for Unlimited Overdrive Mugen Hakumen.. I think the game might actually implode on itself.
Yazumatto Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 I'm more interested in seeing Unlimited Azrael. Jacket Kick causes the screen to explode. Blackhawk Stinger probably knocks your character into the next arcade machine.
Master Of Chaos Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Can't wait to see which Unlimited Form becomes Mu-12 level broken this time around. On the bright side, perhaps we'll finally get a good listen of Black Onslaught II or Endless Despair II.
TPPR10 Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Jacket Kick causes the screen to explode. Blackhawk Stinger probably knocks your character into the next arcade machine. Patriot Apocalypse will cause the cabinet to be launched sky high and explode. If he did it while Overdrive'd, the whole arcade explodes. Though I will predict that Unl. Azrael is etiehr will be more broken than SNK bosses or suprisingly weak as a joke.
Jackie Chandler Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 Awesome, it looks like Survival Mode is making a return as well. I hope that means Abyss Mode will be making a return in the console version of CP too.
DragonLordZ Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 http://news.dengeki.com/elem/000/000/617/617432/ Some interesting stuff here from arcsys about the PS4 but there is one paragraph in particular which hints at two characters, I'm only going on google translate here so I'm hoping someone who is slightly better can confirm something, heres the paragraph ――スペック的には、非常にハイスペックなゲームマシンになりそうです。 その点に関しては、メモリが圧倒的に増えたのがうれしいですね。正直、PS3だとメモリ不足は否めないという部分がありました。特に弊社のように2DのFTGタイトルだと、やっていることがアニメなので、メモリ容量が本当に大事になってくる。例えば『BLAZBLUE』だと、今まで1キャラしか出せなかったのが2キャラ出せるようになる、といったことができるんです。それに加えてすごいCPUボードを積んでいますし、本当にいろいろなことができるようになるな、と。ただ……やっぱり開発費がかさみそうだな～とも（笑）。 It might just be google fucking everything up but a man can hope...
umebo Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 This part of the interview is quite interesting. 具体的なタイトル名などはまだ出せませんが、やりたいと思っています。ウチはFTGのゲームメーカーなので、FTGを出したいですね。『BLAZBLUE』『ギルティギア』に続く第3の軸として、新しいタイトルを作りたいです。実は『ギルティギア』はドリームキャストに向けて作っていましたし、『BLAZBLUE』もPS3が出るくらいの頃に作り始めていました。ですので、今度PS4が出るならそれに向けたタイトルを作ろうと。時代のターニングポイントで新しいものを出す、というのがアークシステムワークスですので、攻めていきたいですね。 from the second page http://news.dengeki.com/elem/000/000/617/617432/index-2.html Mori says here they are planning a new fighting game series for the PS4, pointing that they make new series when a new machine is coming out(GG for dreamcast and BB for PS3).
Starlight777 Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Whatever this new series is, it better make BB look free and the character designs need to be at the quality of GG.
WolfCrimson Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Whatever it is, I guess it'll have a name with 2 single letter abbreviation. Maybe ZZ?
Zephyer Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 I'm more interested in seeing Unlimited Azrael. Jacket Kick causes the screen to explode. Blackhawk Stinger probably knocks your character into the next arcade machine. Wish granted http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9Ro1haqaU0
Nemesis Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 oh poor mu~ but that did look seriously badass... his 3rd distortion seemed to confuse me more than anything else... functionality?
blueNINE Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 I'd rather see them just make a completely new Guilty Gear for PS4.
Nemesis Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 I feel the same way about BB ... but we both know that wont happen -- I just hope it brings the best of both (and mecha musume~)
Vulcan422 Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Currently watching the Unlimited Mars vids. All old characters seem to have the same shit they had from EX with a few alterations and new DDs. Also all their Overdrives last as long as Lv. 3 X-Factor, or longer. U. Noel -New DD: Does Silencer/Haida/whatever a bunch of times. U. Jin -More freezes allowed in combos? U. Arakune -New move?: Makes 3 Arakune heads appear from the top of the screen like a crane game U. Bang -Super Crash moves him further forward? -Steel Rain tracks opponent and rains a fuckton of nails, may be able to do as many as he wants even without nails, has the same cost -New Move: Now has Chipp's Find Me (Invisibility). U. Tao -236C may be faster -Kaka-kaze (Kitty Bomb) may take less time to explode? U. Bullet -New DD: Are you OK? U. Azrael -Speed and damage increase -Crush Trigger is now an All-Out Attack like P4U -HNK combos are back~ -All drives show weak points -All DDs are the OD versions -New DD: releases Enchant Dragunov (his seals) and the number 7 appears above his meter. Nobody knows what the fuck this does yet.
Yazumatto Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Holy shit, unlimited Arakune is the stuff of massive coronaries are made of. ...and I wanted to see Unlimited Makoto too.
Maho Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 -New DD: releases Enchant Dragunov (his seals) and the number 7 appears above his meter. Nobody knows what the fuck this does yet. When i saw the animation after reading this, it made me think of Ken's and Raoh's Musou Tensei super in HNK that make you able to parry 7 times.
Vulcan422 Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 So basically Unlimited Azrael is one big homage to Hokuto no Ken then, including the basketball infinite that got patched out.
zeth07 Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 U. Azrael -Speed and damage increase -Crush Trigger is now an All-Out Attack like P4U -HNK combos are back~ -All drives show weak points -All DDs are the OD versions -New DD: releases Enchant Dragunov (his seals) and the number 7 appears above his meter. Nobody knows what the fuck this does yet. U. Bang -Super Crash moves him further forward? -Steel Rain tracks opponent and rains a fuckton of nails, may be able to do as many as he wants even without nails, has the same cost -New Move: Now has Chipp's Find Me (Invisibility). -His Crush Trigger is the same, that's just a new move. -Not sure what you mean about his "HNK combos being back", his Valiant combos are still around and still look the same except for the fact that he's much faster so it allows for more "regular" attacks to land in-between the Valiant Charger moves (the ones with the dashes). -All his drive attacks automatically have weakpoint properties, so there's no weakpoints ever actually shown. Basically both weakpoints are permanently applied but not visible. For Bang: -That "super crash" move was already in the other games Unlimited form. -Steel Rain seems to cost 1 nail less to my knowledge, I'm almost positive it costs 4 nails regularly, but it looked like it cost 3 in unlimited form. -It looked like he was able to "cancel" 2D into something, whatever it was that's new. -His air command throw seemed to have forward momentum like his ground one, not sure if it was like that in Extend so that could be new.
Yazumatto Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Just for reference: the list of characters in each course. Course A: Noel Jin Makoto Tsubaki Tager Platinum Izayoi Amane Bullet Azrael Course B: Arakune Amane Carl Relius Noel Platinum Litchi Mu-12 Nu-13 Rachel Course C: Bang Taokaka Bullet Tager Makoto Tsubaki Valkenhayn Hazama Azrael Hakumen Course B looks like a nightmare. The last 4 in Course C looks nutty too.
Yazumatto Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 ...huh... you're right. No Ragna. That's weird. I paused and looked at the video multiple times too.
Vulcan422 Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Nope. They probably haven't finished him yet. There's always the possibility of course revisions or new ones.
Dawn of Musou Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Hopefully we'll be able to confirm if Endless Despair II was made then, since U Ragna isn't able to be fought but U Hazama is.
