TeeJay

haha, the legend of Ishiwatari sounds like a mystery.

Not news for us, but why not share. http://blog.us.playstation.com/2014/11/14/hands-on-with-guilty-gear-xrd-sign-on-ps4/

Haha, I wanna post this everywhere to ruffle feathers.

he already subbed Hazama in CP1 if I'm not mistaken.

Is that new or old tech?

I didn't even want to play BB today but USF4 wanted to act stupid. At least I got to run into Nineball and limit my scrubbiness. That j.2c loop was stylish though. Update: I just chocked pretty hard haha. I pulled an OG Shine maybe.

So, something like Power Rankings.

I love how Dogura worded his list. He's still figuring things out it seems. I wonder with playing the game if certain players are like, I really don't care what does other characters do or can do atm.

Thanks, that was my guess since i know he got knocked out early.

It seems like Arc Revolution 2014 matches are starting to be uploaded on the Arc Revo youtube channel. Many of the GGXrd matches are up. Here's the first: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6lX3LswN3Y Which 18 dan Millia is this? If I recall the correct Venom, FAB had to do some clutch stuff to beat Fino.

^^I guess it's just that we have no "real" news at the moment so it's wait and see for everyone.

I understand the skepticism, but at the same time, I don't recall Arksys giving us that type of history plus crossplay would make absolutely no sense as a developer with one version working incorrectly. That'll be damning to your own playing community, especially since they seem to be putting a ton of resources for the success of this game specifically. I'm pretty sure Japan will have a huge PS3 bias, at least at first. Other the other hand, all of those negative things are still possible. In the end, you can't do anything but wait and see I guess.

um, where do you read that because I've heard no such thing. In fact, are there even fighting games at 30 fps. Elvenshadow played a ps3 build (it was labeled) at TGS and it looks/feels pretty much arcade.

I'm don't think it would even be a thing for Xrd unless that patch it in. So I guess I meant expectations regarding the other way around.

i would welcome some things being easier as I'm dealing with neuropathy issues. The other day I could only eat about 2-3 pieces of sushi before holding the chopsticks became nearly impossible. Screw instant jaguar kicks. I also have task-specific focal dystonia so that's another thing in itself. I have no idea how Brolylegs does the things he does. I salute that guy; he also has a nice sense of humor. That being said, I like those execution specialist characters too. It's cool seeing Ogawa, Koichi, Fino, Shounen or whomever just doing work. I wanna see some Elfelt player who is just nasty with the rifle and bodying people on reaction from full screen. It's also cool seeing people like Ruu who can just do stuff consistently that no one else is doing-- having one individual potentially playing a character in a way that no one else does is pretty intriguing and few games can say that. What are people's thoughts on the Sin gameplay based on the Gamestartasia Xrd 3v3 finals. I imagine we're gonna have to block yolo Ride the Lightning crossups on netplay. I wonder if their are ways to fake the crossup. Also Ign is spreading news on ps3 stick compatibility: http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/10/27/skullgirls-encore-developer-creates-ps3-to-ps4-controller-drivers. How will this affect people's expectations? Shoutouts to a naughty dog programmer helping to do the coding.

Destiny devs claim not to have gone crossplay due to visual advantages. I really wouldn't know if something like resolution would affect netcode. In the end, it's done. It's financially probably the smartest thing honestly because I'm sure their are readily more ps3 buyers (haven't bought a ps4 yet) and it makes a much larger player pool rather than divide current ps users, unless you prefer the game to be as sparse as current UNIEL. In fact, I wouldn't be shocked if ps3 is the tournament standard early on unless there is some significant tech advantage. I thought crossplay sealed some success for the game which is kinda imperative.

Arc has said that crossplay was a vital importance in porting the game to console. I imagine it will be fine so I wouldn't worry about it until release. I am sure they recognize that many ps3 users, and perhaps a majority, may be getting the game-- especially in Japan since they tend to transfer late to newer consoles. No one is going to advertise the version with lower resolution even though they look similar. We just need to wait though I admit that some crossplay demonstration would be nice. We have Vita games that have worked well enough with ps3 if I recall correctly. I haven't heard problems with Wipeout 2048/HD or anything. I feel like they are other crossplay games.

Anyone watch the Xrd 3v3 finals for the Singapore tourney?

Yeah, I saw that announcement live. Where is my Jaguar Adon and Tiger Sagat? The Cammy Fox I suppose is better than a Killer Bee....

My main concern, which is different from the current discussion, is if the game somewhat becomes reasonably popular outside of the normal anime/airdasher community, will later updates, balancing and upgrades become more universal between regions? I'm happy that the U.S. release is so close to the JP Arcade release. Arc doesn't have the means probably to do worldwide releases at the moment, or care, since they may rely on arcades financially more. On second thought, that could be impossible. I wonder if that'll prevent the game in the future from growing as much. However, these next few months could be some encouragement for changes or if Arc will be monitoring this ahead of time that to ascertain their future model. It's not really much to discuss rather than it'll be interesting to see. I'm hype for the game and I'll leave all judgments for when I get my hands on it. I look forward to see how the community develops and I hope it pulls people new people in a more potent way than Uniel. I expect it to grab some interest just form visuals alone and subtle appeals or a lack of turn offs that many people complain about in other games. We'll see.

Yeah, I heard you can hear the announcer from the controller.

Yeah, lol at me not remember "slashback." Interesting demo though. Too bad I don't have a PS4. It does give newcomers or old vets a lot of time to mess around with Ky and especially Sol. It seems like Arcade Boss Ram revs up the difficulty (still on easy or w/e) but might be ugly on Maniac.

he's in Japan so he has Arcade access.

you can yomi call out buttons after 6B with 421D>236D if you don't mind using the meter or confirm off of 421D since the stagger can catch people sometimes.

Interesting watching some modest level/newcomer play. I'm liking these JP Twitch streams. i think you can combo into when your opponent's health 20% or less (or in hell fire iirc.) I think the startup might be reduced as you say but I'm not 100%.
