hey guys, i don't know if this is new to you guys or not, but in the latest arcadia, they havea photo of a new character (at least to me): hilda she wears a dress taht's half black/white and looks like a female-er version of ash's outfit she shoots giant laser swords

hey guys back from japan. i don't have much else to report, so i'll just describe the score attack versions of chars that i saw: yosuke: perma speed install yukiko: perma fire break, fire level 10, fans thrown in multiple directions at once kanji: command grab did like 6k chie: perma level 3 charge mitsuru: all specials freeze and charm on hit akihiko: perma cyclone lv 3, perma thunder fist teddie: teddie circus super goes across the screen 3 times massive damage, don't recall if you needed to be in awakening to use or not, status effects didn't go away if you hit him (i think?) naoto: i think more skulls removed on stuff? really don't recall aigis: didn't see narukami: didn't see labrys: didn't see also everyone probably had a hp and damage boost

I think I saw labrys's gg palate: baiken. It had pink hair, white clothes, and blackish edges in the axe

labrys had a lambda pallete iirc. not sure what pallete for gg

Not every 2B is AUB but most are. Only exception I can think of is aigis

I think aigis's hard knockdown thing is just a part of her auto combo Auto combos are from 5A only. 2A won't trigger it. I think most ppl are limited to three 2As in a chain. Also I swear every super in this game has startup invul.

i think manual air turn is a neat idea. at the very least it means everyone gets a crossup for free. can also be used to do interesting things like kanji can do his air-to-ground throw the opposite direction to stop ppl from just running under him. i doubt i:ll play naoto, im learning more by watching than playing tbh. in hte end i think this game is fun, but like most first versions of a game, its pretty... abusable haha. everyone seems to stand a decent chance tho, so i guess it kinda works out? i like hte system for hte most part, so i hope they continue with this and fix the char imbalances/stupid stuff in future games/patches. also, i think the sprites are a bit bigger than bb's... the sprites seemed more detailed, or maybe theyre just getting better at working at this resolution. okay, im leaving the net cafe, so no more from me for a while.

heya, so i got to play a bit (im in japan for about 2 weeks), and heres some random notes ive noticed: chie can dash cancel her 5B (i thiiiink). can control j.D's direction by holding up and down during it. charge super A version only gets half hte charge bar. B version gets full bar. I assume A is faster or something, didnt see ppl use B during combos. labrys has an axe icon by her SP gauge taht changes colors during hte match she also glows the appropriate color (very faint glow). ive seen it change colors as she hits hte opponent and when she gets hit. not sure what it does, but jiyuna says it might have something to do with elements. interestingly enough, she only has this icon before she gets her boss Persona aigis orgia mode notes: gets eddies air dash (but only for forward air dash), air back dash is just up and back press 6 while doing ground normals to cancel into a low air dash (like short hop low). this is how we see her do those short hop mixups. orgia mode slowly drains over time, but also removes a chunk when you do an airdash or the previously mentioned low air dash. so it:s just like valk's wolf mode aigis also has a j.2B attack where she drops mines out of her back and blow up almost immediately, i guess its a crossup move like hazamas j.2C or zappas j.H. i honestly never saw anyone use this attack, only found this out when i was mashing with her. kanji can hold 5C, 2C to delay them. Hold it long enough and it turns into a feint (feels too slow to be that useful tho) kanji can also delay j.C this way, but can not feint it like 5C and 2C mitsuru do 6AB or 4AB to make her move in that direction, just like 4/5/6B can cancel 5C into specials, non-A normals, 5AB, 2AB. didn:t try going into roll/short hop can charge 46B, but not hte other 2 versions hold 2AB for a sweep feint can delay kick of 236236A/B by holding down button. you can charge it (no idea what it does), but then it wont combo narukami's dive kick has landing recovery. can only combo if its CH or crouching hit. dont remember if it hits high or not. random system notes super jump is like GG: you can not double jump after super jumping, but you can air dash CH does 10% extra damage. dont know if its just hte first attack or all hits in teh combo.

i thought comic odyssey mondays were kof? well i'll try going to one of these when i get back from vacation.

i doubt i'll be showing up friday night, but we'll see. depends on how much i have left to pack. can't go to anything mid-day due to work

it mentions things like jumps being changed (i think) chie's charge time being changed, naoto's mudoon being changed and stuff... not really a japanese speaker, so i can't comment too mcuh

we don't have extend hitboxes yet. i know some pages just point towards the cs2 hitboxes for hte time being. edit: they're up

haha. all i can say is learn how to move/space with with your character; that's how i'm getting all my counter hits. i'm flying out next saturday early morning and i'll be gone for 2 weeks

you could probably push them to the corner on ch 6C with a 214D and do more damage that way

"taijima" is a typo; you guys are talking about the same place

because that's what gold bursts do in this game. they borrowed taht from guilty gear

yeah... thread closed

yes, i thought it was a training dummy bug too, so i recorded a jin doing that crossup thing, then tried to neutral tech crouch block myself... and i always got hit standing. i really do think it's a system thing, tho i encourage you to go try it to make sure it's not just me missing something. when i get home i'm going to try doing a 2A on wakeup and see where that gets me.

i actually prefer character diversity so i can learn my matchups. regardless, welcome!

ah, that's probably how they show negative warning. i know negative penalty is red bubble-ish things around the character's head.

you account was created on the 29th. you should have received an email...

http://youtu.be/PO9-BQh8Li8?t=28m39s why does yosuke keep having exclamation marks over his head in this section? i don't think i've ever seen this before

an interesting thing i've noticed is that on emergency tech (probably for neutral tech too), you start in a standing position, even if you're holding down the entire time... and it seems like going to crouching animation has startup. this might be useful for fuzzy guard stuff, and it's the only reason the icecar wallbounce > crossup options in that video work. crouching in bb is interesting, if you rapidly tap down, you character doesn't match up with your directional inputs... it's like there's startup for crouching/standing up. you cancel the crouch animation into crouching attacks, which is why some combos/blockstrings actually work. now i wonder if those crossup options can be beat by doing neutral tech > mash crouching attack...

so... about that wiki progress... where is it?

boxarena usually doesn't happen on friday nights, but it's better to be safe than sorry.
