r0b0t Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 I plan on taking a week off from work when this game finally drops for console in the US. At the same time it makes me so angry having to wait for it. Makes me want to catch a flight to Japan and spend a couple of weeks there however that is not an economically sound idea. Also if any Houston people end up reading this post I plan on having a Guilty Gear XRD console Launch party when this finally releses for NA. Or JP if I have to import. And ill stream it.
D.R.F. Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 Idk about time off, (since im graduating) but something tells me ima drop 100$+ on this game alone
White Man Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 The great thing about being unemployed is that you get time off for EVERY new game release! /crawls into bed with all his clothes on weeping softly
r0b0t Posted May 20, 2014 Author Posted May 20, 2014 The great thing about being unemployed is that you get time off for EVERY new game release! /crawls into bed with all his clothes on weeping softly I have been playing wow recently trying to do Arenas, and all I ever think about is when will XRD release so I can stop playing wow.
HeWhoRocksAlot Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 I'm down for that Xrd Launch party. Not sure if I'm able the get time off of work by that time though. You planning on getting it on the PS3 or PS4, since I'm positive most of us won't be getting a PS4 with a fightstick any time soon. Depending if it's getting release sooner than expected.
TheRealBobMan Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 I'll probably import a PS3 and a PS4 copy for the JP launch, unless by some miracle the US launch is at the same time (I'd just get ours to support it). Not sure about taking time off work... I'd definitely like to take a year off to train for Evo and shoot myself when Disney pays them to include whatever new Marvel is created instead of having Xrd day off for such a thing, but I don't get paid time off (can't really afford to miss days), and I could always be denied a day off even with 2 weeks notice if they really need me at the office. But yeah, I'm totally requesting at least one day off even if I know they can't give it to me.
Midnight-Zephyr Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 Im a part-timer, so I have more than enough time for Xrd when it releases. Ive never been too big on GG in general, but the more I see Xrd, the more I can dig it. In other words, yes, I intend to play it a lot when it drops.
Pichy Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 I'll budget time for it the same way I do any other game release I care about. A healthy balance in life is useful for staying focused and not burning out.
BladeOfJustice7 Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 The great thing about being unemployed is that you get time off for EVERY new game release! /crawls into bed with all his clothes on weeping softly Pretty much this for me as well. Hopefully I'll have the money to buy it by then.
Sadeyo Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 Leave days are like gold in the military so I'll be saving them for another time but don't count me out as an competitive contender, I like to test my skills against more of TX. players.
Zombies8MyLeg Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 I plan on importing it for PS3, but when it comes out in the US I'll be buying it for PS4. I'll probably be playing ranked for most of the night, but have a open lobby later that night(if they have them).
DaiAndOh Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 I may have extra vacation days and they don't exactly carry over year to year....
Layer Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 I don't get vacation, being a part-timer. So I'll probably just call in sick instead.
r0b0t Posted June 9, 2014 Author Posted June 9, 2014 So I am already planning a houston launch party at my house. But not sure if I am actually going to have it the night of launch or the weekend immediately after. Some believe I should have it the weekend of launch whenever that ends up being. So that players can devlope at least a little before event.
[svx] Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 Time off? I'm planning to quit my job for Xrd! and go to grad school taking 1-2 classes but that's a minor detail lol
Sin Kiske Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 What is this 'work' you speak of? The great thing about being a freelance artist and blogger - they aren't technically jobs, lol. But, I totally plan on devoting a lot of time to the game in the first few weeks. I already preordered my copy for PS4 and all that jazz, like, as soon as I was able to. I would love to play other Texas players, but the GG community sort of died out where I live, boo...

Sin Kiske Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 Maybe online play wont be balls. How far do you live from houston? Like, up by Dallas far, lol. I live in Abilene, ugh.
r0b0t Posted July 9, 2014 Author Posted July 9, 2014 Like, up by Dallas far, lol. I live in Abilene, ugh. Well I get 15ms to Dallas. So lets get some games in online when it comes out!
Sin Kiske Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 Well I get 15ms to Dallas. So lets get some games in online when it comes out! Ha ha, sure thing! Let's all pray that netplay won't be awful. Oh, how I hate lag.
Wicked Swami Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 I live in Houston as well though I'm sorta new to FGs (I main sf4) but am starting to play AC+R to learn the game before Xrd comes out. If I'm at least competent I'm down to play as well Hopefully Houston gets a community for Xrd. Game looks fun as hell Phone post
Uncivilized Elk Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 I'm in Hawaii. If anyone is going to be complaining about lag it's me. If this thing can run online better than P4A (which is just barely good enough for BnBs to be possible for me), I'll be happy. If it's identical to P4A online I'll be neutral. I hope I can be happy...
