XXXDC Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 (edited) Who do more people on the internet know? Still he isn't more iconic than Sol for GG. A lot of THAT people only knows Bridget because of "lol everybody is gay for bridget/trap/waifu/uguu (whatever)" but they know absolutely nothing about GG, some of them don't even know the name of the game or what is GG about. That would be like saying that Ivy is more iconic than Nightmare to Soul Calibur because more people know her on the internet. Edited September 10, 2013 by XXXDC
GF9Returns Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 (edited) Order Sol plays nothing like the other characters in the rooster, same for Kliff and Justice, if they get rid of them altogether it'd be pretty retarded from Arcsys' part. And I repeat myself, Order Sol should become Robo-Sol, that way everybody wins. This. DEFINITELY this! Though I hope they just put him, Kliff(make him faster), and Justice(make her dash w/o overdrive and more balanced) in just for fanservice, and for newcomers to understand Sol's background better. I do see Justice being part of the Xrd story somewhat cuz of that scientist. Edited September 10, 2013 by GF9Returns
HoudiniJr100 Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 I haven't really played it. I just read some summery. So just spoil the thunderseal part for me. Sacrificed to save dizzy Also to the man who said robo-sol....you win the Internet. Satisfies my order-sol fan, and robo ky troll :P needs the rotfl copter and gen-ky lovers, and I'm in!
Dreiko Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Sacrificed to save dizzy Also to the man who said robo-sol....you win the Internet. Satisfies my order-sol fan, and robo ky troll :P needs the rotfl copter and gen-ky lovers, and I'm in! Robo-Trol would be a good one indeed. Maybe he can do a DI which in the end causes an explosion like Robo-Ky's and it gets stronger with the more fire you have.
HoudiniJr100 Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 The possibilities are endless! But one thing is agreed...different instant kill (I can't do dragon install Sakai for the life of me in AC+)
Luminos564 Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Also to the man who said robo-sol....you win the Internet. Satisfies my order-sol fan, and robo ky troll Why am I suddenly reminded of Robo-Order Sol and his Ultra Gurlfrend from Blazen?

That would be like saying that Ivy is more iconic than Nightmare to Soul Calibur because more people know her on the internet. I'm pretty sure Ivy wouldn't win a character poll in the official site of the game.
SolxBaiken Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 I'm pretty sure Ivy wouldn't win a character poll in the official site of the game. In Japan? Yes, she probably would. You need to realize these polls amount to jack and shit, they're popularity polls which will more often than naught be decided on the trifecta of design-personality-talent. So those that can make bigger nerdgasms usually litter the top 10s with little regard to anything else [specifically practical stuff, like "is X even a good character"]. Honestly it's interesting when you compare the GG and BB results, BB is super expected with the 2 most moecchi characters claiming the top spots and then all the yaoi bait claiming the remainder of top 5. GG's top 5 having the main characters [and as usual in their own right yaoi bait] is expected, and Bridget and Dizzy being there isn't too big of a shock, but Baiken of all characters claiming 5th!? didntseethatcoming.jpg And when you look at the spots below that some of the placements are quite surprising, many characters placing lower/higher than my expectations of today's market.
stickystaines Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Didn't azrael win the latest BB poll for something.
Malcopunch Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Do you think we will see any new charcters make it in to GG Xrd..i want Sin and Raven to be in but there is also a lot of potential for new charcters
Chipp12 Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Honestly it's interesting when you compare the GG and BB results, BB is super expected with the 2 most moecchi characters claiming the top spots and then all the yaoi bait claiming the remainder of top 5 Buluraji. That's all I'm gonna say.
SoWL Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Here they are! Have to say, Sol looks very Ragna-ish in this one. Didn't we identify these pictures as fan art way, waaay back in the thread?
Circuitous Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Just a few posts before that Suzaku mentioned that more details match up. That's why it was posted again. LIke I said before don't expect drastic changes on 80% of the cast. Even axl is just using his old design. A lot of people are saying Axl's Xrd design is the same as his GG1 design, but really the only match is that he's wearing shorts.

A lot of people are saying Axl's Xrd design is the same as his GG1 design, but really the only match is that he's wearing shorts. I think the point is that people are complaining about the shorts in the new game, when he has already been in a game where he had shorts. So people draw parallels to GG1 to shut people up.
Circuitous Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 His new shorts do look goofy, though, especially with a long-sleeved shirt. They're like bike shorts.
Agni Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 >ArcSys Japanese game >Non-goofy outfits Pick one. This is a series with a character who wears a brown bag on his head all the time with one eyehole cut out and another who's a dude crossdressing as a nun.
Hecatom Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 His new shorts do look goofy, though, especially with a long-sleeved shirt. They're like bike shorts. I think that he is using a robe, not a long-sleeved shirt
Luminos564 Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 I think that he is using a robe, not a long-sleeved shirt Actually he is wearing a long-sleeved jacket (with the sleeves folded a bit). The "robe" you're seeing is because he actually tied/attached the British flag to the back of his shorts using his belt. It gives the appearance of a longcoat or duster, but it actually isn't. I'd question the fashion statement that is supposed to make but then I remembered that I don't give a flying puck about fashion. Especially in a Japanese fighting game.
Kanashimi Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 I don't know if this has been asked yet, but what do you guys think to seeing Overture characters such as Sin (Who would be story relevant.) and Izuna etc?
Starlight777 Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 I don't know if this has been asked yet, but what do you guys think to seeing Overture characters such as Sin (Who would be story relevant.) and Izuna etc? Yes I would like Sin in the game, GG needs more flags. Valentine would be nice as well even if she's dead and has a snowball's chance in hell.
Amadeus46Art Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 I think this thread is a good one to link here, more of those concept arts were released, and it looks VERY similar. http://www.dustloop.com/forums/showthread.php?17273-About-them-GG-illustrations-seen-on-Taobao&p=1539576&viewfull=1#post1539576

This is a series with a character who wears a brown bag on his head all the time with one eyehole cut out and another who's a dude crossdressing as a nun. I don't have to pick one. His existing design was plenty non-goofy. I don't even know why I'm bothering to respond to a post this stupid. I guess to call it stupid.

And that's not cool. However I do like those characters on the second page of the photobucket album, not even sure who most of them all.
