BlazBits and what needs to be done to make it happen As I said in the comments already, a similar series for BBCP is not planned right now, but I'd like to share some more detailed reasoning, and do it in here where people can voice their opinions on the situation: The time it takes to produce an episode for a single character from scratch, considering the hard work of picking the right content, presenting it in the right way, and then creating a video that looks good, rather than some cheap looking windows movie maker things you usually see on youtube, takes between 20 to 30 hours. 20-30 hours is relatively fine for a one time project, but multiply that with 25 characters and this turns into another full time job on top of your actual job, all which you do for free, during your free time. Back then when we put up an episode per week, I had no life outside of it. All my free time after work and during weekends went on that, which burned me out and eventually forced me to take a 2 month break between episodes 7 and 8 -- and you can look at each video's date yourself to confirm that. This is also why we switched to bi-weekly format. Having an episode ready every week was literally impossible. While we do intent to finish what we started, we also had to accept that projects like this are too much effort for not much reward. So from now on the focus will be on projects that don't force you to commit to 20+ episodes from the very beginning, only on projects of smaller scale -- but not of smaller importance! (You'd be excited for what we DO have planned, but that's a topic for another day.) So now there are 2 options: 1. You accept that the scope of what we can give you is limited, mainly because of time constraints, and settle with just getting that. This is what usually happens with free internet content, and that's what we are prepared for. 2. You decide that those "extra" projects, like BlazBits, are important to you. Important enough that you'd be willing to pitch in with 1$, or 2$, or 5$ to make it happen, i.e. Kickstarter the shit out of it. If time equals money and our scale is measured in minimum wage, then think about Guilty Bits as a 7000$ present from us to the community. We hope you enjoyed your present, but we really can't afford to commit to another 7000$ worth of hours to make another 25 part series. Making compromises on the quality of the content is not an option, because ending up with a sub-par guide is a waste of time, and making compromises on the production values is also not an option, because it's vital to leave an impression of "holy shit this is awesome" that attracts new people to the game, and that's something you simply can't do with windows movie maker quickies. So either you help make it happen, or you somehow convince the publisher @Aksysgames or @ArcSystemWorksU even to help make it happen, or we settle with option #1. Your choice, and we'll be fine with whatever you decide. No hard feelings.

Episode 23 is up. Also tune in next week for something which I can't reveal yet.

Ranked match doesn't work for me. When I refresh the list it stops showing people.

It requires overdrive.

That's what happened to me exactly.

I already got lucky with stylish Terumi after several tries. And with that I have finished all the harder stuff.

I beat highlander mode with the "harder" characters without many attempts. The key is to really control when the boss gets 100 super meter like mentioned here. Get him to 50 -> wait for orbs and sentries -> get to 100 after you get rid of them. With Arakune I used j.2A and j.2C to destroy the sentries. With other character I just iad forward or backwards with a suitable normal. If the character has a super that fills the screen with crap like Rachel, I used it at times where things were gonna prevent me to hit him during charge phase. But I am having difficulty with the score attack mode

ep 22 is up

How is it quick and easy? All the 3 first unlimited characters are a pain in the ass to beat...

Where do I get Maze Walker? Also the unlimited character kills me with ease after I slowly breeze through 200/300 floors. What can be done about it?

I know that many players will gladly answer questions on twitter etc. It might be even better since it doesn't pose any sort of commitment so more people will be willing to do it.

I'd be happy for braindead easy combos for the Hakumen, Nu and Tsubaki trophies, and maybe a strategy for the unlimited mars. Also I have no idea what the "You’re doing well! I’ll compliment you!" condition is.

Sandwich the opponent between Carl and the puppet. 623C 8D 2C 214214D.

I'm loving it ATM. Once I get a combo down in practice mode I move on to practice it against a moving opponent there to make it less stale. The only problem is that I can't choose the 2P side. Instead I have to jump above the opponent at every round.

I made a vid with links to harass them about it:

Oh shit I totally forgot about this... If you plan on making more, skip episode 2 for now and start from 3. In any case I have added the file: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaNMUEYA2kA Click the CC icon and then choose Spanish.

Voting with your feet that is. Help the game have tournament presence throughout the year and it will be at EVO for sure. This also goes towards BBCS.

Episode 20 is up.

Is there some sort of method to make FRCs easier to do? I've been exploring the whole concept of FRCs lately and wanted to know if there is something known on the subject that I'm not aware of.

I'm pretty sure the players from the SRK thread are also lurking here, but I'm not sure if you people here are bothering to check over there. In any case the SRK thread is filled with discussions about different characters and matchups which you may be interested in. As long as there no real ASB forum I'm constantly checking both threads.

Episode 19 is up.

He means that there's no room for sophisticated high level play yet since people are still learning. Basic stuff always win when a game is young.

But all the non-yoyo specials are very unsafe on block at close range.
