Arcus Diabolus Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 That top is defying physics. Why is it sticking to her like that? (OtherThanMoriReasonsOfCourse )
swordsman09 Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 That top is defying physics. Why is it sticking to her like that? (OtherThanMoriReasonsOfCourse ) There is still a strap behind the text if you can't see it. There's a collar too.
Arcus Diabolus Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 There is still a strap behind the text if you can't see it. There's a collar too. I was talking directly under the breasts. It fully attaches itself to her breasts and all the way to her body and then goes from there like nothing happened. It might at well be skin tight. The cloth should be hanging right to the strap after falling off her breasts, not sticking to her like glue. I mean, from a artist perspective, this avoids drawing wrinkles and other frustrating cloth related stuff, but...

It's not a final design so maybe it'll make a little more sense then. EDIT: And I think Makoto is enough proof of defying gravity.

When the game makes fun of your outfit defying phyics (help me Kokonoe), something's wrong.
mAc Chaos Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Art talk = Zepp Museum. You heard shtkn folks.
Leiopelma Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Not gonna lie, I'm digging that outfit. I think it would be cool if she had one katana and one smaller katana. I hope the final thing looks alright. With Litchi providing the cleavage, Makoto the underbood and Mai the sideboob, it looks like BB will now be able to display partially exposed breasts from all angles. I think it would have been better if Mai had a more modest outfit since her character didn't seem like the type to show off. Then again, the same could be said about Noel and she's pretty exposed. Speaking of which, I think Mai's top looks pretty similar to that of Noel's outfit in CP. As for weapons, it looks like she favors western-style blades (though it doesn't look like she uses a rapier), since these are the weapons she created with her grimoire. Japan did have a two weapon fighting style employing a katana and wakizashi, but Europe had its own tradition involving a sword and parrying dagger. I presume that Mai is trained in the latter tradition. Since both Jin and Hakumen use katanas, I don't mind seeing Mai use another type of sword.

Her top reminds me of Juri if anyone. We all are talking about a little piece of artwork. Are they gonna put in that other Remix Heart girl?
VermilionBird Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Cajun? She's shown to be capable of fighting in just one panel (which itself is vision of the future). She should be capable, however. I mean, she's an undercover agent for Sector Seven who infiltrated the NOL's private Academy which housed several Duodecim heirs. Although her physical fighting ability has been shown the least out of the main cast, mainly being outshone by other RH exclusive characters like Taro and Shiori.
Leiopelma Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Mai's got 2 katanas here. Something to take note of. We all are talking too much about a little piece of artwork. Are they gonna put in that other Remix Heart girl? She did have two katanas there, but that promotional piece of artwork is the only time Mai has ever been shown wielding katanas (or two swords of equal length for that matter). She never does that in the actual manga. In fights where she has the opportunity to us blades, she goes with a longsword and parrying dagger. The post-timeskip illustration that Mori drew of her indicates that she retained that fighting style after graduating. Cajun doesn't have an established fighting style and she never does battle in Remix Heart. She's a researcher/undercover agent for Kokonoe. I suppose that Mori could come up with a fighting style for her, but I think it is unlikely that she will ever be a playable character.
CosmicShadow99 Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 So what all is confirmed about BBCP Extend so far? I only got a few things. -We'll get the BBCP2.0 balance patch, including Celica and Lambda as playable characters. -Celica, Lambda, and I think Bullet get more story. -Mai and Cajun are confirmed to appear in story. Judging from the screenshots it seems they may just have a flashback story for Remix Heart. Though if they haven't announced anyone else from the series then I guess that is unlikely. -Early purchases, so pre-orders or limited editions I guess? Get rubber character straps depending on the console you buy it for. Anything I missed?

swordsman09 Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 I originally was talking about Shiori, but I see what you guys mean about Cajun. She did have two katanas there, but that promotional piece of artwork is the only time Mai has ever been shown wielding katanas (or two swords of equal length for that matter). She never does that in the actual manga. In fights where she has the opportunity to us blades, she goes with a longsword and parrying dagger. The post-timeskip illustration that Mori drew of her indicates that she retained that fighting style after graduating. Honestly, I only think she went with that because that was the only thing there. If provided otherwise, she would've gone with katanas. We can't really base her fighting style from some drawings anyway. All we know is that she'll use two swords.
CosmicShadow99 Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 Where did ASW confirm the balance update? Extend is the console version of BBCP2 that is in japan arcades already.

We can't really base her fighting style from some drawings anyway. All we know is that she'll use two swords. Shiori has not been mentioned outside of Remix Heart. I consider it very unlikely that she will have a role in the games. In that scene Mai had a variety of blades at her disposal, including multiple swords. However she specifically chose to arm herself with a longsword and dagger. When near the end of the manga she used her grimoire to create weapons for herself, she once again chose the same types of weapons. And in that drawing of Mai by Mori, we can see that she has one long and one short blade based on their positions. I therefore think that Mai's prefered fighting style does involve a longsword and parrying dagger.

A sword and dagger combo reminds me of Hilde's Lance and Short Sword combo from Soul Calibur. Should be interesting.
Arcus Diabolus Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 Assuming Mai becomes playable, would her super taste do anything? I almost want to way she'd read your thoughts and expose a weak-point of some kind, but Azrael already has that mechanic, so I'm a tad lost where that would come in, if at all.
Leiopelma Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 ....So Mai can use projection? After she completed the fusion with her grimoire and was attacked while unarmed, she appears to have created a pair of blades in her empty hands. So it does look like Mai is the bone of her sword. Assuming Mai becomes playable, would her super taste do anything? I almost want to way she'd read your thoughts and expose a weak-point of some kind, but Azrael already has that mechanic, so I'm a tad lost where that would come in, if at all. That is her most unique ability, so I imagine that they will include it in some manner. Maybe she could taste her opponent and then get something similar to super armor to simulate her having knowledge of and being able to predict and evade her enemy's attacks? As you said, weak points are already used.
StylisH Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 Does anyone have any actual confirmation of this character or is it just pure speculation at this point?

Now, I'm assuming you mean she actually Licks her opponent. I don't think that's getting in the game, it'll be too risque.
