Tokkan Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Well GGX2 did have Risk Ratings on the characters when you picked them for their Story Mode, based on reports handed out by the PWAB. Of course, those were letter rankings, with "S" being one of the highest while, I think, Bridget was the sole one assigned a rating of "B". I'm moreso referring to the fact that it's not like that Risk Rating from ACPR which used letter rankings, the rankings present in the Xrd ranking list were Dan rankings. So why use its name... without spaces... when it's something different.
Kitsoru Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 yeah, did those ratings have a real "reason" in the story or were they just there? If you mean gameplay wise, no. It's sort of just an in-universe representation of relative character physical/political power.

Welp.

Tokkan Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Now this wasn't too hard. Ramletherl Valentine's character page technically already exists on the player's guild site, but it's a completely blank 0 byte file. My attempts to find other characters has only gotten me 404s. I think Ram-chan (apparently the devteam's nickname for Xrd's Valentine, according to Yamanaka's twitter) might be a time release character.

STenSatsu Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 I'm moreso referring to the fact that it's not like that Risk Rating from ACPR which used letter rankings, the rankings present in the Xrd ranking list were Dan rankings. So why use its name... without spaces... when it's something different. Probably just for flavor. Since Risk Rating using numbers still makes sense.

I can't wait to see what see plays like.

Was a given since Arc games always have the boss as a playable character.
Kitsoru Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Can anyone translate these? Valentine impressions. https://twitter.com/dionore/status/430175116631080960 https://twitter.com/dionore/status/430179628259364864 https://twitter.com/dionore/status/430180750466375680
Zinac Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Can anyone translate these? Valentine impressions. https://twitter.com/dionore/status/430175116631080960 https://twitter.com/dionore/status/430179628259364864 https://twitter.com/dionore/status/430180750466375680 Basic details is she has a lot of range. Her main weapon is a floating katana. The black and white balloon things reminded him of Rachel. Three supers so far. One reminds him of gamma ray. Other is a spinning sword attack. Didn't catch the third. She has a hop instead of a normal dash. Main points that I caught so far from a quick read over.
TheRealBobMan Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 I wouldn't post this BS google translation, but it was too funny: "Appearance of the Valentine. Ken fairly large one by one behind hot pants live foot brown gray hair white cloak, of both shoulders is floating. There is also a part, such pattern like a gun apart from that pattern is more like a Japanese sword sword. The small and I have two dogs floating black and white's like Guy Rachel" The other two were just as gibberish, but weren't as funny.
Casper Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 google translate is the greatest poet of our era.
xlolxlolx Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 k some quick lazy translations: valentine is stage 8 opponent for may in japan valentine impressions: brown white hair, white mantle, 2 big sword looking weapons with katana handles that also have a pistol grip feature also floating behind both shoulders, small black and white ball things also floating around her gameplay: step dash, mainly attacks with the floating swords, several fang-like attacks with her feet and mantle sleeves, appears to have what looks like a command throw that can be combo'd off of, has 3 overdrives overdrives: 1. a lunging/charging attack 2. floating sword spins horizontally(note: if not immediately teched on air hit, it will otg for 52 hits) 3. gamma ray-esque overdrive that is charged for about 3 seconds other stuff: may's ch 6p>6p>c.s>5hs>stuff didnt dizzy sin appears in the opening of sol's arcade mode
Layer Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 That looks like some Daisuke original artwork. Sick ass poses as always.
Kitsoru Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 sin appears in the opening of sol's arcade mode Yesssssss
Zinac Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Erm... 両肩の後ろに1本ずつかなり大きい剣が浮いてる。 It says ONE sword floating behind both her shoulders. It says one sword each.
Tokkan Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 It says one sword each. Ah... Stupid dictionary can't find words. Deleting that post right now.
BladeOfJustice7 Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 sin appears in the opening of sol's arcade mode That's awesome, I guess the chances of us seeing is increasing. Does he still dress weird? Is Valentine's gamma-ray-esk super a full tension super, or a 50% tension super?
Starlight777 Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 I wasn't expecting her to dual wield floating giant swords. Then again she kinda does remind me of a Murakumo.
SoWL Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Well at least we have notes and impressions to look forward to. They didn't allow any footage on any of the previous loketests, didn't stop our informants from recording it. Also, I don't like the "Ram-chan" nickname for Valentine, mostly because it's too similar to Lambda (and she already looks pretty similar to her).
