[Xrd] News & (Theoretical) Gameplay Discussion

[Pete278]

If you say 'SC5' three times in the dark while looking at a mirror, you get dragged to hell by a bunch of rabid Taki fanboys.

[Silmerion]

People weren't as unhappy about Taki and Kilik and such getting replaced (though they weren't pleased) as they were about niche characters such as Talim, Yun-Seong, and Seong Mi-Na getting left out due to the game being a rush job.

[White Man]

I think the game might will be like SF3 series or Art of fighting 3 were is there few old characters + completely new roster...

i know if that were true some people won't like it...but IMHO i prefer that due 2 reasons..

1-new bloods.

2-I don't want to throw R+ away after releasing Xrd.. i want to play both games for years and years..

I said basically the same thing much earlier in the discussion (and got my kneecaps broken over it), so I absolutely agree with this.

[Luminos564]

So come August 9th and we'll finally be able to see how the game looks in players' hand. I'm glad I took all those Hype Control classes or else I might be rolling on the floor and foaming at the mouth from excitement.

[Jocelot]

It's only monday and I want the week to be over.

I wonder if they'll talk about Xrd in those weekly Japanese magazines? Eh I dunno. The event could be a strict no cameras event with only Ky n Sol playable and I'll still be excited just for feedback.

And then you have the next week to survive through. The only way to do so is distract yourself with other hype stuff that comes sooner, like, I dunno, Dragon's Crown.

[shinr]

Will there be a separate thread for the loketest reports?

[SoWL]

Circ did say that this thread will be up until we have concrete info, so I suppose so.

[TheRealBobMan]

Does anyone on dustloop live close enough to go to the loketest?

[Chaoschao222]

Does anyone on dustloop live close enough to go to the loketest?

Ill be there! Envy meeeee mwahahaha

[Kurushii]

Xie, and Jiyuna are a high possibility. Pulsr said he may try to go. HeartNana is still in Japan so that's another one possible. I think @TrollBadguy said he was going. I know DSMoove is going to Japan soon but I don't know if he'll be there in time.

Jiyuna said he'll be out of the country during the loketests, and it sounds like Xie will spend a decent amount of time at Comiket (which is going on at the same time), but I think he said he'll try to make it when he can.

[Kurushii]

Well damn. :/

[Wild Candy]

I'm really excited to see all of the 3D character models! I wonder if they switched up the designs of any of the other returning characters. (Like how Millia was wearing a different orange dress in the trailer, and Ky was given a Ponytail.)

I'm also curious if their will be any new characters introduced...

[Rhiya]

Don't worry, guys.

I'm sure Jiyuna will give us the most informed tier list you could possibly get from that loketest.

[SolxBaiken]

Don't worry, guys.

I'm sure Jiyuna will give us the most informed tier list you could possibly get from that loketest.

I hope CPU shows up, his Ky in AC was godlike!

[WolfCrimson]

Don't worry, guys.

I'm sure Jiyuna will give us the most informed tier 3D bar chart you could possibly get from that loketest.

Fixed.

[TheRealBobMan]

So... want to start a checklist of things they probably wont remember to check but would be nice if they checked?

1. Negative penalty. I doubt they'll change it, but it's a new game so check it anyway.

2. Meter gain. It looks like tension pulse is still there and there's no reason to change their meter gain system, but check it anyway.

3. If you can play as more than just Sol and Ky (it'll be too hard with just them), check if guts and defense modifiers are still in the game or if they switched to that different health values thing.

4. Push buttons while blocking to check Dead Angle, Faultless, and Slashback.

5. Try to instant block a lot. See if the success window feels bigger or smaller.

6. If Sol/Ky's projectiles have FRCs, can they put more than one on the screen at the same time?

7. Throws. Range, break window, etc.

8. Can you still airthrow a burst? Did they make gold bursts safe on block like in P4?

Start adding stuff.

HOW MANY REPS OF DUSTLOOP CAN YOU DO?!?

[Orrax]

HOW MANY REPS OF DUSTLOOP CAN YOU DO?!?

This is what I want to know.

[ElvenShadow]

Those are good things to check. Ill be happy to check and find out as much as I can so please feel fee to post anything else u want me to find out. Hopefully the line to play won't be too insanely long.

[Kaizen]

HOW MANY REPS OF DUSTLOOP CAN YOU DO?!?

Obviously the most important question.

Also,

9. Xrd site screenshots make it look like Dust launchers lock bursts. Check, please.

[Sym_]

Elvenshadow plz steal a cab for us, also one of these http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0enzmZ-QUY

ty :yaaay:

[ZenTzen]

the only other 2 characters that can be on the loketest are Millia and eddie seeing as they are the only 2 other characters to appear on the reveal trailer, i'm hopeful

[WolfCrimson]

^But they can include all the characters in the loketest, it doesn't have to be only the characters revealed in the trailer. Anyway, if they do include all characters, pls tell us which characters. A snapshot of the character select would suffice.
