Suzaku Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 English name confirmed as Elphelt on Yamanaka's twitter.
zdravkelja Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 I'm not sure I like new Daisuke's designs. Oh well, it's always good to have more characters. And I like GnR reference.
D.R.F. Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 man the venom at this character is terrifying lmao. going through some of the oher stuff
XXXDC Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Preorder bonus for Xrd will be the dlc character エルフェルト(eruferuto, I have no idea how it's supoused to be in english). The voice actor is Suzuki Aya. エルフェルト fights with a rifle and a shotgun. エルフェルト will be sold later at the price 800 yen. エルフェルト and Sin will be at TGS.

But i'm not into zoners and also don't like guns. ___ Edit. Now i like her a little less, because: She is not my type..but.. regarding here design..i don't feel it has the uniqueness like other character designed by Daisuke ..why ?? because she reminds me : From arcana heart.
Jocelot Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Thanks for the replies guys. I kinda hit the post button after the replies. Cool, can't wait to see What's Her Face in action.
Blade Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 It's not like ASW has EVER had exactly 3 DLC characters in a game. Never ever. Not BBCP, not P4U2, so certainly not Xrd. Right? BlazBlue is BlazBlue, Guilty Gear is GUILTY GEAR. Mock all you want guys, I'm still callin' it. There will be a another new character after Elphelt for GGXrd, bet on it. Mark my words.
Zedar90 Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 BlazBlue is BlazBlue, Guilty Gear is GUILTY GEAR. Mock all you want guys, I'm still callin' it. There will be a another new character after Elphelt for GGXrd, bet on it. Mark my words. That's not what he meant. Blazblue have had a game with three DLC characters (BBCS: Makoto, Valkenhayn and Platinum) and P4U2 also had three (Adachi, Mari, Margaret). There most likely will be one more DLC character for GG, since arc looks to like to have at least one pure paid DLC (CP: Kokonoe, P4U2: Margaret).
Master Of Chaos Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Technically, CP only had 2 DLC characters. Kagura just had to be unlocked by beating story mode.
sren Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 she kinda looks like a fittin' match for Sin, rebellious Valentine or so. and w/ the tech used on Zatou, probably might b back later on but as Aria's Install Super
Clousephinat Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 please note 1- Both are wearing white. 2- Using Guns. 3- Did you notice the 2 roses on her hair ?? and the hair color..is relatively close If it's about roses, then maybe you'll want to put Rachel rather than anyone else, what you're saying is still a folly if you ask me. About the guns and stuff, I don't like shooter games but I still think it can be a good idea to include someone like her in a dark universe like Guilty Gear, in the meantime I would like to dream that she's going to be something like Marion Quinn... https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=cAKc7e446tQ#t=42 Though of course, she will be broken for sure if so
GEKKA Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 BlazBlue is BlazBlue, Guilty Gear is GUILTY GEAR. Mock all you want guys, I'm still callin' it. There will be a another new character after Elphelt for GGXrd, bet on it. Mark my words. I'm with this guy. El is looking really cool though. I love her design
HeWhoRocksAlot Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 I hope that she will have guns, so that we will have another obvious reference to Guns 'n Roses along with Axl. ^Wow, this guy called it lol
Calamitus Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Chronus has more chances to appear than anyone else from the old roster because they are just irrelevant for the story. Though i'm not sure how they are going to make him unique by Guilty Gear standarts.
Gear May Cry Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Not digging her design, but depending on her personality and her gameplay she might be interesting. Hopefully we don't have another Celica on our hands. I'm still hoping for surprise Raven announcement. If they do announce him i will die of happiness! 8O
DaiAndOh Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 That's not what he meant. Blazblue have had a game with three DLC characters (BBCS: Makoto, Valkenhayn and Platinum) and P4U2 also had three (Adachi, Mari, Margaret). There most likely will be one more DLC character for GG, since arc looks to like to have at least one pure paid DLC (CP: Kokonoe, P4U2: Margaret). Depending on what you count, Mu was story/unlock so that's, CP had Kagura as that, plus Terumi as the first print, Kokonoe as pure paid. Technically, CP only had 2 DLC characters. Kagura just had to be unlocked by beating story mode. Sin is the same way (as is Mu-12 before him). 150 yen or grind unlock. No one will actually be surprised if there's more characters. If you can actually tell us who it is, feel free to wave your e-peen around then.
Mumm-Ra Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Chronus has more chances to appear than anyone else from the old roster because they are just irrelevant for the story. Though i'm not sure how they are going to make him unique by Guilty Gear standarts. who? people play gg for the plot?
Dawn of Musou Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 What I find hilarious is that people are liking Elphelt for the tits. Her gun mechanic will be interesting to try out though.
destruction_adv Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Nah, it's not about top tier, it's just certain match-ups being pointless. I'd guess a Murakumo-styled ranged character in GG would neuter Potemkin, for example. No trouble there, even as he is now, Potemkin is IMO much better designed than tager.
D.R.F. Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Lets be honest, they are something else (we really should stop before anne kicks us all out) At least pot has way better ways of crossing the screen and better anti-airs. Better footsies too (5H, 5S, etc.) I think the main problem would be what is flickable
Blade Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Chronus has more chances to appear than anyone else from the old roster because they are just irrelevant for the story. Though i'm not sure how they are going to make him unique by Guilty Gear standarts. Hate to somewhat burst your bubble but according to Lux (who I asked about Bardius, since she owns VastEdge) and apparently when Sol confronts him in battle, after he beats him (she used a Tyrant Rave on him) he melts in to a puddle while laughing. I don't think the Senato members will be doing much active fighting unless they get pushed in a corner. Even Crow Kuruwaba likes to dodge attacks and blow up stuff to make his getaways. These guys fight dirty. No one else is getting an Annie Oakley vibe from Elphelt but me, huh? Sometimes Guilty Gear reminds me of Wild Arms.
Luminos564 Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 What I find hilarious is that people are liking Elphelt for the tits. Her gun mechanic will be interesting to try out though. Let's face it, people don't need much of a reason to gravitate towards a given character, especially when they're a busty lady. I remember the days when Makoto was first announced and people immediately went "UNDERBOOB! 10/10 will main!" or when Mu-12 showed up and they all went "DAT ASS" (though to be fair, the trophy you got for selecting her in BBCS did not help). I just accept that it happens and act accordingly. That said, I would like to see just how "FPS-like" her gameplan is. I suck at those but am still interested in seeing how she'll fight.
Koozebanian Fazoob Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 No one else is getting an Annie Oakley vibe from Elphelt but me, huh?Definitely, though actually with the 'aiming' mechanic they were talking about the first thing that came to mind was Annie from Wild Guns specifically. Can't wait to see her and Sin in action.
shtkn Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 http://blog.livedoor.jp/ruubr/archives/40644447.html Ruu and Kedako got some xrd frame data. when viewing the text files, be sure to set your text viewer's (or web browser's) encoding to japanese
Jocelot Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 Sweet, time to Bedman. Really curious at the frame data on Bed Spin and Bed Body-press (Task B/C) to see how punishable it is on block. I feel nobody is doing anything about it, specially Task C, which I of course understand with Bedman being a new character in a new game.
Agni Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 I main Platinum in Blazblue, so you can guess how I feel about El Anyway, she's cute as fuck, but more importantly her playstyle sounds interesting. I've always wanted a character in a fighting who uses guns, switching between them and reloading, and now I have one! I'm certainly interested in playing her once this game drops over here.
