Ab. K, this sounds...really techable. Did you turn on tech in training mode?

Usually if Japanese and English are available in a game, I'll almost always opt for Japanese...but I really like the English better in this game. Holy Brand is more for other enemies trying to approach you while you're locked on to someone else imo, but I don't use it very much.

Post up in the NC thread when you can play bro. Me and a friend in Alabama play it now.

Hey Cameron, take control of the map before you do anything else.

Yeah, you can do that in training mode. You can even have the CPU master fight you. Ky has to be unlocked. Everybody else is playable from the start for free missions, online, etc.

I had trouble with it for several tries, but then I just decided to rush Valentine and this got me a victory in less than 3 minutes D: Don't forget you can unsummon units into your personal slots to drop them off wherever you go. Only problem with that is, as soon as you leave them somewhere, they'll start trotting off to wherever they were originally at/given orrders to go to.

I guess that's why he got nerfed lolz I think the CPU got tougher. Then again they raped me and my friend before too :x This game is crazy! I really think we need a thread, subforum or something to discuss strategy/characters. There's literally nowhere on the internet for us to do that right now. I guess Aksys' forums might be an option?

Cool! thanks XD Combos straight from the publisher, awesome.

lol an RTS that requires training mode for competitive play. Quite GG. I only have one combo, and I do it a lot. lock on uppercut launcher, jump, two slashes, volcanic viper (should be both hits).

Magic discussion is like...WAHT Anybody else notice that Valentine's costume changes if you use red? Not sure if other characters are like this.

I ordered it online D: ...so I'm not even sure what store# I'd complain to at this point. edit: Heavenscent told me to contact gamestop directly, so I'mma do that. I really need to stop shopping there -_-;

This game is fun! Thanks again guys. And yeah, I didn't get my preorder bonus either. woooo gamestop.

Woah Marco/Butt from Garou is in one of those backgrounds. Indeed, game looks great. I never got into 2002, but this looks to be a good reason to.

The guy he was named after (Michael Kiske) pronounced it "kees-kay", but the Japanese say "kisk", so I guess either is correct. edit: Heavenscent's explanation is better D:

So they decide to stop being a carbon copy of one character...and start being a copy of another :D

you Aksys guys are so awesome ;_; DONATIONS, LET ME GIVE YOU THEM Tracking says mine is minutes away...too bad I'll be at work forever today D:

Something "broken" means that whatever character/system mechanic/glitch it is "breaks" the game, making it unplayable. If you hear that in reference to something in late GG games, it's more used like "boo hoo this character is good". Something actually broken would be like the Gambit glitch, Rei infinite DP (arguably several things in that game), Rainbow Edition in general, sometimes the top tier in SNK games...

I'd assume this is the case, reading his signature. Never thought the computer would be so clever, though.

I've had 6P beat HOS' j.H like, twice...ever. If he's smart with it, you can't use that move to anti air. Close S...I've never even thought about using that, sounds like a bad idea. No grounded move will really work, except for early 6P and 2H, and early will likely not be so feasible because of how low/fast his jumps are.

People are asking if this has offline multiplayer and...I don't really know. Somebody?

spam. there was some other stuff I commented on in the forum (it was about a chinese security system lol) but it got deleted...and this wasn't deleted shrug?

So after all this time they still never released the music for this game? The rips from, like, two years ago just weren't that great. You'd think they would at least put it out as a bonus disc with a Gaiden DVD or something.

that's the most random spam ever. It's about a Chinese security system.

hopefully not after the patch??

The CPU can't break the rules like that, no. Ky's full dust combo does have a lot of j.Ss in it, but j.Ps and a jump cancel fill in the gaps between them. If you weren't paying close attention, it may have looked like 8 or so j.Ss.
