I've suddenly realized that Tenhou and Kawachi Nagano are the same person v v Good thing we just got this thread going, so I don't need to edit all the links we had before. vs Kokonoe: BBCP 1.1 4/28/2014 Athena Nipponbashi 3on3 Part 1/5 [Tenhou / Kawachi Nagano] vs Litchi: BBCP 1.1 4/28/2014 Athena Nipponbashi 3on3 Part 1/5 [Tenhou / Kawachi Nagano] vs Rachel: BBCP 1.1 4/28/2014 Athena Nipponbashi 3on3 Part 2/5 [Tenhou / Kawachi Nagano]

How exactly do people measure things like that?

Yeah, I'm totally going to give Wald a try (but only after Merkava), though I just haven't watched too many matches to write anything good for him, especially with little to no knowledge of the general metagame. The single fact that he can combo his throws makes him amazing in my eyes, at least.

You can limit her Engages to one per combo, like in the training mode. But it's all just theory-fighting, so whatever.

It almost seems like Terumi's wearing an eyepatch, probably because there's no shadow on his hair.

I thought that AoA change was one of the first ones we've heard of in P4U2

You sure the trailer had no support chars in it?

Tamaki's grabs are 360 (speed, damage, no range), 623 (can be comboed into, can be blocked, can anti-air), and half-circle (start-up invuls, oki). She basically has everything a grappler might need.

Raquel Alucard, oh boy.

Don't trust Mori's lies. Ever.

There is also a loketest manual on the game's website, which has some tidbits about the system. - Block by holding down 1 or 4, run and backstep by pressing 66 and 44, respectively. - Four-button layout: weak (A), medium (B), strong © and Support Link (D) - Two gauges: Force Gauge (the usual super-gauge) and Support Link Gauge (used for Support Links) - Specials are called Force Actions - Supers are called Super Force Actions and cost 100% of the Force Gauge - Offensive Force is the local RC variant; it costs 50% of the Force Gauge and is performed by pressing B+C - Throws are done by pressing AB / 4AB / 6AB. - Link Attacks (Assist calls) are performed by pressing D / 4D / 6D / 2D. The cost depends on your character's state: it costs 1 Support Link Gauge stock normally, 2 stocks when you're in block stun, and 4 stocks when you're in hit stun. - You can perform Link Force Attack by pressing D during your Super Force Action. This is the big bad super that costs 100% of both gauges. And now I feel that this game is going to suffer from the "Cool characters as Assist-only NPCs" syndrome, as well.

Honestly, it's tough to say right now. On one hand, most changes we got are straight buffs, and the few nerfs that we got are not that major. On the other hand, the only thing that makes me go "Boy, I'm glad we have this now" as I watch the match videos is the 1080 buff, the rest are a bit too subtle to appreciate from afar (or maybe no one has implemented them in their gameplan yet). And then there's the matter of stealth nerfs: apparently, some of our old BnBs deal less damage now, and no one is sure why. Because of that, I wish we had someone with the Vita version check out the changes that were not mentioned in the patch notes, partially because there might actually be some hidden buffs, too. Overall, I don't feel like Bullet's going to change too much: her pressure is better, her match-ups against zoners are a bit easier, but she still requires good neutral game and has some problems with the mix-ups. She's still in the "Fair characters with no broken tools" category, though 1080s out of nowhere might make all the difference she needs.

More importantly, we finally got the Vita version of 1.1! Have people found any undocumented changes so far? I'm still a bit worried about Bullet's combo damage, which has been apparently nerfed behind the scenes.

Unless I'm missing something, those two images are literally all we have at the moment, so any and all discussion or speculation is pointless waste of oxygen.

I wholeheartedly approve of that mega-Rachel, even if it's not actually her.

It all comes down to paying for your games. PSN does not accept credit cards that do not belong to your region, so you can only buy stuff by using point cards - and by that point, you might as well buy the US version.

The screenshots make her look like a Mu clone, though the descriptions also mention that she can "Analyze" the opponent for some buffs.

Too late, the games already share lots of them (even if they originate from GG).

Because it's different, duh.

No Ken stuff, I assume?

Is it just me, or there are way too many girls with swords around? Where's my giant gloves girl?
