Climhazzardous Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 It's remarkably similar to their special intros from XX/#Reload on. I should find a recording of it... at any rate, it's entirely too blatant for me to think "oh gosh look at these neat, not at all oddly specific clashes." It's ok I know the special intro's, but it's because I do that the difference between them is that much more of a connotation. In fact: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whD5DSmd1JA It's too specific to be a coincidence regarding attack levels and clash push backs/stuns: Sols c.S vs Ky 6P - Draw clash f.S vs 5HS - Ky wins and dashes right in HS vs c.S - Sol wins 2HS vs j.HS - draw clash but both get pushed back It was done in an exhibitionist way but it is also done within the confines of the actual gameplay system, unlike the special intros...unless you wanna count PC and NO's =]
Mumm-Ra Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 It'd almost be neat if it did have a full cutscene, but you could still RC it and continue to combo in cutscene mode. That'd be a really unecessary pain in the ass imo.
Circuitous Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 It was done in an exhibitionist way but it is also done within the confines of the actual gameplay system, unlike the special intros...unless you wanna count PC and NO's =] No GG, BB, or ASW game has had clashes that push back outside of special intros. If you can find the video for their XX/#R special intro I think you'll see it's closer to this one. If memory serves, anyway.
Luminos564 Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 (edited) Either the Material Collection/Bible or in one of the Drama CDs, I couldn't tell you off-hand. Well at least I know what to call it now so thanks for that. Also, interesting thing is that Millia's hat has a "license plate" that reads "[zl-28][13]". Now, correct me if I am wrong, but isn't that used in Zepp as a means of identifying each of the citizens with a number? Edited May 19, 2013 by Luminos564
floatwater Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 in other words it would mean 7-7-13. someone in a YT comment mentioned that. specualtion is all on you though.
Mumm-Ra Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 I wonder how Millia's attacks will look now that she's got a hat, I mean she had a hairband before but that hat is huge I really like it though, the new color is better too, specially since before she looked like Ky's buddy or something.
Chaoschao222 Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 I wonder how Millia's attacks will look now that she's got a hat, I mean she had a hairband before but that hat is huge Look at Makoto's new jacket in BBCP; just because she got a swag new outfit doesn't mean it'll actually be used in battle. She could just take the hat off. I like the hat ;__;
Luminos564 Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 in other words it would mean 7-7-13. someone in a YT comment mentioned that. specualtion is all on you though. Possible Trailer #2? If that turns out to be the case, it would be the best birthday present ever for me XD. Well OK, I lied. Best birthday present would be getting to play GGXrd that day instead.
GEKKA Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 Even though I'm trash at GG im kinda excited to see where this one goes. I like the change to the style. Seems like a step in the right direction. Hopefully we'll see the GG2 cast in this game too.
Neithan Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 Just made this after found the third image. It's indeed much better.
Seku Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 I wonder how RCing supers will look like now that they've got a cutscene Sacred Edge didn't have a cutscene, even though there is an FRC for it (assuming it retained its FRC) Hmmm
InWithTheAshes Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 (edited) Possible Trailer #2? If that turns out to be the case, it would be the best birthday present ever for me XD. Well OK, I lied. Best birthday present would be getting to play GGXrd that day instead. That might actually be what they're intending: Show one fight per trailer, with a portion at the end showing the combatants of the next one, and a quiet hint as towards it's date.

Circuitous Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 That actually does look better slimmed down. I noticed, when it did the 360 camera sweep, that they seemed to thin out a bit. I think maybe it's just a trick of the "lens" making them seem so wide normally.
Horokei Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 Yo dawg! I heard that you like waiting for new GG, so we develop brand new GG while releasing another GG, so you can wait for new GG while you wait for new GG.
dehumanizer Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 I'm slightly confused too, since isn't Eddie supposed to be dead via storyline reasons? Taking place after GG2 does make me wonder who exactly will be returning. i.e. from what I remember Zappa got all his ghosts exorcised out of him at the end of someone's storyline, so who knows. Zato 1, the human character is dead, but Eddie has been living on ever since GGXX. In AC+, Eddie is supposed to be on the verge of death since forbidden beasts die soon after their hosts die, but in his story he was able to escape death by either shear will or some other way that's not clearly explained. This is clearly seen after his fight with venom in his story line. Going by this trailer, it seems that Eddie's story from AC+ is cannon.
Murderbydeath Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 Well, I read the entire thread, and I would like to be the first to say that "Xrd -SIGN-" is the dumbest title I've heard in recent memory. A friend pointed out to me that in the latest .hack game, the main character has a "Xth" form in it, and one of the .hack games had SIGN as a subtitle, didn't it? Maybe Daisuke is a fan. Other than that, it looks good; I don't know how they managed to make 3D models look hand drawn, but it looks nice. Other than Sol's shoulder cancer. Poor Sol.
Skye Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 Yo dawg! I heard that you like waiting for new GG, so we develop brand new GG while releasing another GG, so you can wait for new GG while you wait for new GG. Couldn't hold back the laughter. The kind of jokes that are funny because they're tried and true, but hilarious because it's true.

I recall that Daiske...something...didn't direct it.
Skye Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 Daisuke Ishiwatari. DA I SU KE I SHI WA TA RI ダイスケ　イシワタリ Don't know how his name is actually spelled in native Japanese.
Circuitous Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 He was still on board for it, even if he didn't direct it (note: I'm not sure if he did or not, I'd have to double check). They're considered "gaiden" in that they're not part of the main Guilty Gear story (instead revolving around Dizzy's bounty and characters meeting based on that), but they're still partially canon, if only because not every possible ending/interaction could happen. So basically there's one "true" storyline, and a bunch of other alternate storylines. A lot like BlazBlue, except that all of BB's are considered canon since time loops let them all happen.
Jocelot Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 I wonder if Impossible Dust would still be possible with the dynamic angles in Xrd. It even looked like the character who did the move in Xrd couldn't attack or move until the animation finished. edit- I guess I'm getting ahead of myself lol. Nevermind.
