[Xrd] News & (Theoretical) Gameplay Discussion

[kosmos badgirl]

The videos are nothing but amazing, I have the feeling that it looks a little slower than +R, but probably is just me. I'm not a fan of the camera changes from 2D to 3D but I can live with them, the intros are jaw-dropping, and the "you rock" screen too, the only thing I really don't like is Millia's hair when she is standing.

[SolxBaiken]

All these videos are making me angry...

because now I'm super anxious to see Baiken ; -;

Bit of a silly question, but how does May's intro work outside of her stage?

[SolxBaiken]

Well the intro is all it's own until she jumps off the Dolphin and lands on whatever stage.

dem Hulk Jumps.

that's why she stumbles upon entry

It seems like the swimming and possibly April part as well only happens in her stage, one of the reaction videos seemed to imply on other stages she just does the walkup and off-balance 'wooaaa~' pose part.

Seeing May's stage at least now we know she keeps her dolphins in an aquarium aboard the ship

- new Dragon install move P.B.B is like SF4 Oni's airdash, very fast dashmove in the air, and if opponent within the range, it turns into airgrab automatically.

can you clarify this further? are you saying if you do it low enough while in the air, it will even work against grounded opponents? or it only works against airborne opponents?

when you RC, opponent can also counter RC you to make you slower

yo dawg, i herd you like timeslows so we put a timeslow in yo timeslow so you can rc while you rc

Honestly who cares if it is a bit Slower..you don't want your fighting game to be too fast..

I dunno where max heard that Xrd plays like Marvel 3 but that's not accurate. Xrd plays like Guilty Gear, plain and simple.

That video came out before the loketest even started, so he basically repeats someone's impressions of the trailer (and we all know how legit those are).

Love the videos, especially HPB and Chipp's face during it. It does seem exactly the same most of the time, except for those moments when making the animation more fluent won't change the game mechanics (like Potemkin's walking animation or Venom's victory poses).

PBB should only work against opponent in the air. and you can't cancel into this move so I don't think you can do it in combo as well

all right thanks, but what about the actual air grab itself? i mean is it like wild throw where you can continue comboing afterwards? or it just gives you knockdown?

Yeah..Max didn't know much about the game when he did that Impressions video..i am sure he has looked up more info about the game..

Maybe it came from Xie's tweet and he didn't know it was a troll tweet lol https://twitter.com/XiePlus/status/364586794718724098

Edit: Looks like STenSatsu also thought the same.

Also wanted to say thanks ElvenShadow and Stunedge for all the info. Really appreciate it.

Blazblue general is that way buddy.

True..i may just be crazy thinking that it doesn't matter how fast a fighting game is..i am the same crazy guy who thinks Street Fighter and Blazblue should have a crossover together..

Timeslow at the 7min mark.

[SoWL]

You could also see the purple RC at around 5:40. Seems like it denotes the cooldown cancel?

[Malcopunch]
