Gespenst Ritter Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 I'm liking the new combo system because it means people won't automagically drop out of my combos whenever a stray Stein hits them.
TD Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 I'm liking the new combo system because it means people won't automagically drop out of my combos whenever a stray Stein hits them. They won't drop out because stein hitstun/level got buffed, not because of the new combo system.
Assassin Cross Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 That bang loop has been known for a long time now, don't know why it's only causing a commotion now :/
Kurushii Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Playasia opened back up preorders of the LE. $10 more than the first batch. http://www.play-asia.com/BlazBlue_Chrono_Phantasma_Limited_Edition-paOS-13-71-bp-49-en-70-6h6l.html
Andru Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Ends up to be $143 after fedex shipping so it entered that expensive territory :O
Blackwing55 Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) Which is silly when you consider that Extend had the least amount of new content to add (story-wise) and took the longest to get from JP to US (two months compared to CS' one month and CT's five days). Please guys I hope you realize that they delayed the release of extend so it came out on time with the vita not that it was being translated the whole time. By the way the amount I played blazblue totally paid for its worth on the vita. Also I thought that the hazama extras were top notch in extend especially when he was beating the crap out of valk and taunting platinum. Maybe I just like the actor more, they did well with the speech but I do recall a few spelling errors but like everything small and really insignificant I laughed and moved on.

Kyosuke Kagami Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 The 2nd preorder was sold out at 11ish iirc I ordered a 2nd copy at 9:45pm with no prob. So yeah, these preorders don't last Gawd, the pricing abuse is really stupid this time
BladeOfJustice7 Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 I didn't ask for this... ; -; ... when you play tsubaki you do. Exactly. Thank god for damage proration Really? It did pretty hefty damage for a Bang combo I find. Just when i figured they try to actually eradicate loops, more pop out like roaches in the middle of the night. Oh the irony... Hey guys it's too hard to fix a glitch and remove loops so we put a timer on your combos and a retarded new SMP penalty Works wonders, doesn't it? I actually like their new combos system in CP. ArcSys games, not sure about P4U though, are always littered with loops (not that I hate them). So I like their new combos system since it requires you to be creative with your combos rather then just chalk it up to a loop x n. A whole new mode dedicated to beating that huge robot from the OP, here we go! Wait, what? You need a Japanese PSN ID, but it only takes a couple of minutes to make, and the DLC works on all your accounts as long as the JP one is intact. Awesome news debating if I really want to preorder toe game now that I have a ps3. I found it more humorous than "omg patch" In fact if this wasn't happening to Tsubaki, I probably never would've pointed out [as I probably wouldn't have seen that match lol] It's not a game breaking glitch, so yea I agree with you. Gawd, the pricing abuse is really stupid this time You mena how expensive the game is?

I agree with you mostly, except when I see CP Hazama loop his j.ccccc up to 5 times... It angers me lol. Why doesn't this have SMP of all things?
skooball Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Ends up to be $143 after fedex shipping so it entered that expensive territory :O I'm sort of glad I got a preorder in with AmiAmi for my LE, I just have to wait and see how damaging the shipping is gonna come to. Play-Asia really kill it with the shipping costs.
Kyosuke Kagami Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 "You mena how expensive the game is?" Nope. These online stores are really doing stupid shit, by increasing the prices for no real reason. Play-Asia's price was still fair. Yesasia's was beyond bonkers.
SoWL Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Wait, what? Just speculation on my part about the secret mode. I honestly don't see any other option for a mode that must be unlocked.
Airk Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 I agree with you mostly, except when I see CP Hazama loop his j.ccccc up to 5 times... It angers me lol. Why doesn't this have SMP of all things? I agree; There seem to be a lot of stupid looking jump loops in this game, but that one is the most offensive.
Kyosuke Kagami Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 I agree; There seem to be a lot of stupid looking jump loops in this game, but that one is the most offensive. Do you have a vid where I can see such atrocity? I really hope that shit doesn't build heat. If it does, THAT would be an insult.
psycofang2 Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Do you have a vid where I can see such atrocity? I really hope that shit doesn't build heat. If it does, THAT would be an insult. look up any hazama video, its become his typical BnB. it doesnt build absurd amounts of heat so idky anyone would hate it. actually i think this is 1 of those combos that hits deminishing returns pretty quickly because of how many hits are involved.
Kurushii Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 I'm happy with the changes they made to the combo engine. Way more freedom with just a untech timer in place.

BRAZIL No big heat build? Fair for me.
psycofang2 Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 BRAZIL No big heat build? Fair for me. yeah its not, i dont even think it builds as much heat as some of his other CSE combos even though there ar emore hits with this 1. the only thing it has going for it is the corner carry and how "braindead" is seems.
YukiBlue Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 The untech on Hazama j.C is so insane. What's going on with that seriously? His BnB's look mad linear now
AMB Bakery Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 His BnB's have been really linear since... CS1. And CS1 is where he had arguably the most freedom with his combos (chains). CS2 was just all 3 chains > Jakou link j.6D relaunch or as many 6C's as you could connect in the corner. CSE optimal combos are TK loop for literally every situation. And now in CP it's j.C, which was suboptimal in CS1 but is now optimal due to the way it prorates and the fact that meter gain in combos has been completely re-worked. Honestly, Hazama can gain meter more quickly through just a few successful consecutive mix-ups. Look at any video, he gets like 7 or 8 meter from a successful 6A (starter).
LionHeartx Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 >4th iteration of Hazama >still asking "why" I for one just go with the flow and laugh hysterically whenever I see his new loop leading to like 3k off the most random hits
Airk Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 I for one just go with the flow and laugh hysterically whenever I see his new loop leading to like 3k off the most random hits THIS is why it's insulting. This is a character that was supposed to be all about needing meter to do explosive amounts of damage, and now he gets like 3-3.5k off some stupid looking loop from a random midscreen hit. He does better meterless midscreen than half the cast. Off whatever. Anti-air 5A? Sold! 3k! ...
Kyosuke Kagami Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 3K out of a 5A? ... okay, there's something about the new combo system that doesn't compute in my head. Or maybe they did that on purpose with Hazama, just for the sole purpose of trolling everyone?
Gespenst Ritter Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) 3K out of a 5A?Airk, as usual, is probably grossly exaggerating. Or said combo actually exists, but there's some important auxiliary information about its requirements that are conveniently absent from the statement. "3K off a 5A" isn't quite as sensational when you mention it requires a counter-hit, a Crush Trigger, Distortions, and/or Overdrive. Edited April 26, 2013 by Gespenst Ritter
