theguy2687 Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 So, I'm really excited for P4AU in September, but I've never really played a Persona/BlazBlue type game. Is it worth playing the original that's out in the US to get ready for the sequel or should I just wait because there are significant changes? Also, where would you suggest starting to learn this game? I'm mostly coming from Marvel, so this is an entirely brand new engine to me.
Elochai Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 I would say it's worth playing. Everything that you learn in P4U will carry over to P4U2. You'll just be adjusting to the changes like everyone else. If you need/want learning resources, check out the Dustloop Wiki. Don't forget to ask questions in your character's subforum either. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
LeDom Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Last time I checked, the game was dirt cheap, so buying it might be worth it if you play and train a lot before Ultimax comes out.
AchedSphinx Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Yeah it's a good idea. That way you're used to the mechanics sooner and you won't be going into P4AU blind.
theguy2687 Posted June 21, 2014 Author Posted June 21, 2014 Thanks everyone! I went ahead and nabbed it from a friend who didn't want it anymore. Here's to not sucking by the time September rolls around.
SoulGuitarist Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Hope you enjoy it. It's a fun game. Really simple but really fun as well. If you like P4U, should pick up BBCP and P4U2 when it releases.
Whimsikal Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 If you need somebody to do some training with, shoot me a pm. I am new to this game aswell. (From Germany, on PSN)
illness690 Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 I picked up this game when it first came out but I haven't played in about two years, and I wasn't that good in the first place, so I'm pretty much just like you, starting fresh, learning everything again. If you want someone to spar with add illness690 on psn.
HDTran Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 @theguy2687, @Whimsikal, @illness690: You guys playing online? I'm getting back into it and I really didn't play it, so I wanted to find some competition that was figuring out things like I am. I'm HuyDucTran on PSN.
Fortune Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 May I jump on the sparring train too? I definitely need to brush up on everything Persona related. Will-o-Fortune on PSN. I'm in Atlanta (but back in Alabama for August)
nilcam Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 I'm in the same boat. I played casually when P4A first came out and was never very good. I've decided to get back in to it. I'm generally on in the evenings during the week and random times on the weeked. PSN: nilcam. I'll add everyone posted before me tonight.
HDTran Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 I'm down, you guys want to schedule something? It's hard for me to come on at random times versus just coming on at a certain time.
Fortune Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 Weekdays I'm usually guaranteed at 8 Eastern (BS often occurs where I have to work late and WALK back to the place lol). Weekends I'm virtually good for 20 out of 24 hours lol. #RustyPlayerSolidarity lol
oBLACKSTARo Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 Weekdays I'm usually guaranteed at 8 Eastern (BS often occurs where I have to work late and WALK back to the place lol). Weekends I'm virtually good for 20 out of 24 hours lol. #RustyPlayerSolidarity lol I'm a kinda mid-tier meh scrub player in Georgia, would you mind if I send you a FR to play some matches sometime? Same question goes to many of the other new-ish players on this thread
HDTran Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 I'd be down for any games guys (especially if I have a date/time to play online)! Gotta let my significant other know about these things nowadays.
nilcam Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 Scheduling time works best for me as well. Does 7pm Central sound good to anyone?
HDTran Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 nilcam: I generally can't do times before 6:30PM Pacific, so I guess 8:30PM your time. You around on any days to do that?
oBLACKSTARo Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 Whenever any of you see me on, please, send an invite. If I can't go, I'll message back. But usually I'm ok on evenings, if I don't have life stuff going on
mixedmethods Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 I'm new to FGs and totally free, but if anyone feels like bodying me so I can learn, that'd be awesome. I'm usually around evenings during the week, most of the day and night on weekends. No pressure if we're online at the same time; I don't expect anyone to drop other shit for a match. PSN is mixedmethods. Just tell me you're from Dustloop P4A if you add me. I'll try to add the rest of you guys tonight or tomorrow (with a warning about who I am, obviously). If we can find a common time I could try hosting a training room regularly once or twice a week...?
Whimsikal Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Hey, I started a thread dedicated to searching sparring partners. Make sure to post there aswell!
Justice7541 Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 P4A seems to be making a comeback lately. I don't really get it but i guess it's good timing with P4AU around the corner.
StylisH Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 For some reason, I simply can't get into this game. It just doesn't interest me as much as GG or BB or even MB
HDTran Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Yeah, let's plan for next week. When are you guys around? I can do any weeknight if I have a time after 6:40PM Pacific as long as I know about it beforehand. @StylisH: Maybe play a more rush-down character?
StylisH Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 It's not the characters, just the flow of the game for some reason. It's difficult to explain.
JRSven Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 That's funny, because I started anime with P4A, loved it, picked up BBCSE and just couldn't get into it. My opponents always felt just out of reach. I'm a lot better at it now, and I'm really digging BBCP. I just needed that "a-ha" moment to get through the shnide.
