I still think that adding the FRC along with YRC will make everyone happy.

I am not sure if it's bad thing or a good thing. It's just like Redsilversnake said

I think that YRC is a very cool feature and I think it can easily coexist with FRC. At I first this is what I thought : Using the Yellow and Purple for the new RCs and not using the blue color is like a sign that they are planning to bring back the FRC at sometime in the future. But adding FRC to Xrd will have a good and bad effect that's why they didn't add it to Sign. Good : *Ky being able to cancel his stund edge, throw and slide for 25% for decent combos and mix ups. *Chipp used to be able FRC his dp but now you can't RC reversals on whiff at all. *many Characters that wasn't added to Xrd yet needs FRC like Robo-Ky I can't imagine him not being able to FRC his HS. Bad: *They want to attract new comers so it's not a good thing to initially put FRCs in the game. *Zato doing HS drill FRC into ID j.K combined with the time slow mechanic will cause a very easy and stupid unblockable. After hearing Pachi's answer I realized that I was just overthinking and their reason is just stupid. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Overture had the best music Ishiwatari did IMO. I still think they should have reused many tracks from it.

Not really Guilty Gear is Guilty Gear. Blazblue was based on some of Guilty Gear's mechanics but was tweaked over time.

Then just RC into IK

During the interview Ishiwatari said that he is really sad that he dropped some characters for now and he will defiantly bring them all back if the Xrd series kept going.

No please! no Blazblue mechanics at all!

I don't hate YRC. if they keep it and add FRC the game would be perfect for me.

I think Xrd is more like KOF XIII which is a new game that is more friendly for new players but gives more advantage to veterans unlike the games Mike mentioned. It's just that i think the reason why Pachi removed the FRC form the game was really selfish and self centered.

Just want to point out that ver. 1.03 doesn't have any noticeable changes. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Actually i am not convinced with what Pachi said about FRCs. He says that he wouldn't realize how important is it because he's a Faust player and YRCs does the job.

LOL Ishiwatari said that they made Sol looks buff to appeal the western market.

Also Pachi said: "For example if we let the players choose between Bridget and Venom who will they pick" 4Gamer "They will pick Venom' And regarding the Johnny vs Slayer thing, i think he said that they picked Slayer because they think that he is easier for new players. Bedman has a major role in Xrd's story that's why he was added as a playable character.

I really liked how they said that they wanted to reboot the game system but not as much as SF4 did. Also regarding not putting Dizzy and Bridget, the said that they are most popular between fans but not that popular between actual players. Pachi said Johnny and Zappa have better priority because they are being picked more. I am really happy that the are looking more at the competitive scene more than the fanboys/girls.

+R has been out in Japan ever since September 20th, 2012

Didn't anyone manage to find the characters color sheet ?

True but i want Ky players to go back to Ky

I am gonna arrive to Tokyo on Jun 2nd, i doubt that i will accomplish anything with 2 weeks experience but i will do my best. anyway watching Arc Rev finals could make up for the SBO that i always wished to attend. I think that we will hear about console version at E3 because Ishiwatari will be presenting the game personally.

Dragon install for 25% !? . . . . . . . i really don't know what to say!

Just like i was saying, i feel that you are talking from a console gamer point of view. Xrd is a new game and people on Arcades are all over it. It's really hard (especially since it's Guilty Gear) to just pop a 100Y = around 1$ to try to learn a new character for about 3-5 minutes and most of the times someone else will challenge you before you're done, beat you and kick you out of the cab. unlike consoles where you can spend hours playing and training for free.

I don't think many players are willing to learn a new character (especially on Arcade) and rather stick with characters that they are more familiar with from previous games.

I don't know if anyone mentioned this before but here is some footage of Dogura's Sol. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAH-ScOFU7M#t=1832 I thought Sol couldn't combo after his air throw without RC anymore!

Please tell me that this is not an unblockable! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70_bzWMypAU#t=53

So the white balloon slash horizontally while the black one slashes vertically. And if that normal was an overhead then it's too fast react to!
