YukiBlue Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Carl, Tao, Valk, Hazama, Arak. Its not just Hazama
StarGazer Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 These ppl are always good no matter what, dont act psyduck all of a sudden
Nemesis Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 me wow mAc you have Godlike meter gain and you are sane?! what a combination! but srsly that redline remix... I heard Sword of doom remix is lacking though? or did ppl mistake it for the boss theme again?
Zio_IV Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 So with this whole "can block Zanshin" thing, from what I'm seeing so far, it's just with stuff concerning projectiles, like Arakune's bugs and Mu's lasers. Basically if we Zanshin a projectile and they happen to walk into the zone where Haku can grab them, they can block it instead of eating a counter. That, I can get behind. Or is it that people can block Zanshin even if they hit it with any standard normal, cuz if they can, doesn't that defeat its purpose? I mean, there is nice meter gain (and it is very nice...) but a counter that can always be blocked every time seems a little backwards.

Yeah, they can block it if they run up while you counter a projectile. Although there was some question about 5D, I remember, a while ago... not sure about what ever happened with that. But anyway.
Zio_IV Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Well, that 'aint so bad. Granted, I haven't seen a Haku counter a normal yet, so I'll have to wait until that happens before losing my shit needlessly. Also, what's this about 5D? All I heard about it was that the active frames were completely changed. Was there something else I missed?

Narroo Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Well, it would make sense that your can't hit a person off a projectile. As an eternal amateur on CSII, getting countered across the screen after using Lambda or Hazamas' D moves is rather annoying to say the least. It both shut's them down heavily for little reason, AND doesn't make much sense. Gah! (I'm about to get flamed for being a ninny, aren't I?)
Zio_IV Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 No, I agree it was a tad derpy (not that it stopped me from exploiting the crap outta it) so I'm fine with seeing it go. I'm just worried standard attacks can be blocked on counter, 'cause basically the opponent could just block upon seeing the Zanshin crest, and no worries: you're good. While most Haku players could probably deal with it, it still has me raising an eyebrow over here.
Nemesis Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Hazama's 214D dash is very sexy!!!!! you mean his forward and backwards serpents benediction stuff? yea thats gonna be a bitch lol

Zio_IV Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Nah, it's not like that. Oh. Sounds fine to me then.
Nemesis Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 On a side note does anyone have a rough idea as to how long it takes for the burst to recharge?
stickystaines Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 So how can OD be cancelled into anyway? Anything (like a rapid), any normal or only special cancellable normals?
mAc Chaos Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Oh. Sounds fine to me then. They changed other stuff about the counters though. Just go to the Haku forums.
YoYoCheese Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 So how can OD be cancelled into anyway? Anything (like a rapid), any normal or only special cancellable normals? I believe the rule is that anything that can be special cancelled can be Overdrive cancelled.
Rorshock520 Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 (edited) Watched...archives...still...hungry...for...more...footage... Side-note: Does anyone hear the influence of Ocarina of Time in the title screen? Side-side-note: ;_; if this doesn't get a 360 release. I'm getting worried... Have there been any official comments about a 360 version? I guess I kind of get it if Japan doesn't get one, but what about NA? Edited November 21, 2012 by Rorshock520
-Otsdarva- Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 any footage of izayoi? I can't wait to see her in action!
Circuitous Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 The Game Carnival stream had a Jin finishing arcade mode... they cut to black right before Izayoi showed up, and didn't come back until after the ending. Trolled hard. (Not that they had the AI set high enough to be worth watching anyway.)
TPPR10 Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Any footage is better than no footage, no matter how sucky it would be.
Mumm-Ra Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 (edited) Wow we can block hakumens counters now... http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=Kv6qHnmVqz4#t=150s What can I say? Back to low tier with you. Surprising how Hakumen is once again garbage when the game turns more like CT, a fun game, and less like CS, a shit game, where he was strong. Coincidence? Edited November 21, 2012 by Mumm-Ra
Sophisticat Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 ^ No word yet on whether he sucks or not. Some of his options seem pretty strong so far.
