destruction_adv Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 I'm disappointed by the lack of library mode. I really wish we'd gotten it, but we already knew ArcSys doesn't seem to care too much about people outside Japan. Then again, not translating library mode might be why it's being released so soon after the Japanese release and if that's the case, I don't know what to feel.

Idk, we could always try to learn Japanese to transcribe that shit. A lot of work though lol
Maker Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 If not getting library mode is what gets us the game stateside 2 weeks after the release in japan i'll gladly take the loss. Biggest grype I had in the Blazblue series was having the hugely staggered releases. If we're lucky maybe the'll translate it down the road and patch it in when or if it becomes convenient?
Teyah Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 OK, I have the english instruction manual for both versions and they don't have listed "library" and "link" inside the database. I don't know if Aksys will be happy if I upload the whole thing, but you can ask me whatever you want, the content of the option menu or other thing. Hey thanks - can you say if there's anything mentioned about voice selection / switching between English/Japanese voices on a per-character basis?
TAI-X Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 What a blue-baller. If the release dates weren't so close, I would have just imported the JP version like with BBCP and told ArcSys USA to go fuck themselves again. I guess Blade has his work cut out for him translating this shit now... Opening their own (clearly understaffed, underfunded, and incompetent) office in the US instead of continuing to rely on Aksys for localization was a dumbass move.
Akselziys Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 Hi guys, Just to let you know, the "database" of Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- has been translated and included for the US version of the game It's already been planned to be available in the Day 1 patch, so make sure to grab it! Hopefully that clears up any misconceptions. Thanks, guys! Akselziys
D.R.F. Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 Day one patch (bleeeh) database translated (yaaay) I honestly don't know how I should feel about this
entnervt Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 Easy, just be happy to get the translated database. Who cares if it is via day one patch?
SolxBaiken Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 And this is why we don't get bent out of shape before a title launches >.> If I were in charge, I'd forgo the patch just to teach you all a lesson!
LeDom Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 ArcSys USA is learning from their mistakes. I give them a sincere round of applause for that.
MasterXDrake Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 Great news. Thanks ArcSys. I wish EU had you instead.
destruction_adv Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 I'd like to rescind my disappointment.
Akselziys Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 ArcSys USA is learning from their mistakes. I give them a sincere round of applause for that. Great news. Thanks ArcSys. I wish EU had you instead. But we're Aksys Games not ArcSys ;-; haha
MasterXDrake Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 I though it was a shorter term for the company's name. Sorry haha
TAI-X Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 So it did get translated, but not in time to be included on the disc when the US version went gold. I guess I can be happy about something for once. Good job stopping in to clarify this ASAP so you don't lose any sales over it, ha.
Akselziys Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 I though it was a shorter term for the company's name. Sorry haha Haha, no worries There is an actual "Arc System Works USA" as well. But our company is Aksys Games~ Hope you guys are getting HYPE for GGXrd! Less than a month away!
Calamitus Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 Its sad that you cant do same thing with BBCP. Well, thank you for your efforts to increase quality of the game.
BladeOfJustice7 Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 What's Database exactly? I guess I missed something especially since it's such a big deal
youcanwonder Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 Any more surprises u let to let us in on lol
Vulcan422 Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 What's Database exactly? I guess I missed something especially since it's such a big deal Apparently it's this game's version of the Library Mode from BBCP that was cut from the US version. Gives more plot-related details.

king of heart Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 Haha, no worries There is an actual "Arc System Works USA" as well. But our company is Aksys Games~ Hope you guys are getting HYPE for GGXrd! Less than a month away! You guys did pretty well with BBCT when it comes to release date. Then you started getting lazy with later versions. Hoping that the Xrd series won't end up the same way.
Narroo Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 Haha, no worries There is an actual "Arc System Works USA" as well. But our company is Aksys Games~ Hope you guys are getting HYPE for GGXrd! Less than a month away! So wait did Aksys do the localization then? I know your publishing, but do you know about the library mode because Aksys translated it?

Hopefully that clears up any misconceptions. Thanks, guys! Akselziys Thank you for going out of your way to post here and clear that up! RE: Day one patches Given how long it is until the game releases the JPN version of the game probably already passed it's ship date, and the localization teams at Aksys are probably still working on it along with the core programmers and testers at ArcSys. Shooting for a day one patch is what allows them to release the game in a few weeks rather than in January or some time later. Since these guys are probably working 60-80 hours per week right now, they need some encouragement! Let's not complain about the inconvenience of spending 10 minutes downloading a patch since it means there's about 3-4 more weeks of work they were able to put into the product without having to push the release date back any further.
