You've got a good start if you're doing those things. One that you should add to your repertoire is meaty 5K. If you find they start blitzing or otherwise wising up to your oki options, you can put a j.D on em, and that's fine as oki on it's own, and if you YRC it you can do other stuff like overheads and whatnot. Also, try comboing into 2D > Split Ciel (236D), so you can put a CSE through a grinder, and get the really good fireball oki. you can get a good mixup or two in there, and even more if you YRC it.

Hello, GG player, just picking up CPE and kinda leaning toward Makoto. Is there any trick to the drive bar, or is it just memorization and muscle memory? I've got the first combo on the thread down, but the second one (2D (2) -> 236A~D etc) is giving me some trouble, especially the hits after the fireball.

go to the Elphelt forums and read what is annoying for them. There are a couple of really lengthy posts that are really good information. Stuff like: If you see them pull a grenade around mid distance, throw out Ride the Lightning, as if she has to block, the grenade will blow up on her and you get damage/knockdown, and if she opts to throw it she'll probably get hit. Her wakeup time is longer, so delay the CSE or go for meaty 6H. http://www.dustloop.com/forums/index.php?/topic/9932-elphelt-vs-ky/ It's helpful if you look for what moves they are scared of and what they have to do to counter them and so you can...counter that counter.

I'm not sure what you are talking about. Trial 15 is S > 236HS > HS(repeatedly). so it is not a dp, it is a quarter circle. And you do mash, but you mash HS not P. do you have your buttons set right/ are you pressing the right buttons? As for reversal timing, it's a little more strict than SF4. try messing with the timing in training room (set the dummy to just run up 2D). my trouble with reversal was doing it too early. try inputting as soon as you see Sin getting up.

you misunderstood the guy. he was shittalking the on disc colors. As the link he posted said, only the last set of colors are DLC. implying somehow that colors 7-12 aren't.

His P buttons are good for poking out of pressure, if you don't have meter/ don't want to risk a DP. Wait til they jump for an overhead and 6P, or if you see a hole poke em with a 5P.

I just wanted to see if anyone found the fastest way to get points. but scrolled through all that to hear that the game is shit, etc. just wanna get some points man.

not on jpn version. she won't be released for non preorders until the 18th i think it was.

I didn't have my ps3 hooked up during the auto preload is there a way to manually preload? and would that just be on the product page, where the button to buy it is?

http://www.dustloop.com/forums/index.php?/topic/6703-importing-101/ there ya go. if you get it while it's still in the pre order window (which i believe today is the last day) there will be one additional screen that isn't metioned, where after you click the buy button, it'll bring up a screen with 3 buttons, and pick the furthest right one, for "confirm pre-order"

Play Sol's story mode. After the fight she states that the outcome of the fight did not matter and stuff like that. So I would bargain that she IS bored.

I'm surprised I came in here to people praising Axl. I laughed cause of how ridiculous it was. And then people are shitting on Rammy. I quite like it. I plan on maining Sin, and I really like his voice. This will be like persona, and I won't really be bothered either way on which version the setup is. I agree with all the Sol hate, that was bad. Not cringe worthy or anything, but.

i'm downloading now and it says x/1.99 GB

Do we just post here to enter? my only worry would be that I wouldn't have Sin unlocked, but it's being held kinda late, so I'll go ahead and say I'm in. I can also stream if you'd like.

This is the screen I got after clicking on the price button. I haven't seen this before and it's not in the importing guide. just don't know which button to press.

After you click on the game, and you click on the blue button under the picture, to buy just like you normally would, it brings up a menu different than in the importing 101 guide. it has my total yen, how much Xrd costs, and then three buttons. I can edit in a picture if you don't know what i'm talking about/didn't get this screen.

I'll bring a ps3 setup, that has digital Ultimax, UNIEL, and GG. If need be I can bring a Wii U with Smash (I only own one monitor though).

I never extensively played KI so I was unaware. ._. Thought I was popping out original ideas. ._.

Since a lot of people have drawn parallels to his swords being like Draven's axes. I think it would be neat if there was some truth to that. Like he uses his swords, dual-wielding and all. Then maybe he can have a special where he throws them, and they lie there, like Milia's pin, until he picks em up. and while he's not holding them he has lion-like moves, maybe he has claws or something.

I hope it's streamed/recorded for some more Sin footage :D

So do we know how extensive the Soundtrack that comes in the LE is? is it a sampler or the entire soundtrack?

The demo piquing interest, possibly. I just got around to playing it, and quite excited for the full thing.

I can't seem to get the normal mode corner throw combo to work on Narukami. I've tried tons of things but can't seem to get that one to work on him. dunno if that's just me, but the j.A won't connect. edit: another question: on the Victory cry midscreen AoA (j.b, delay, j.B j.214CD...) the video shows 4811 damage, and i'm only getting 2642. i'm doing the combo right, i can't figure out why this is happening.

As a ~somewhat~ new to fighting game player, I thought it was gonna be really hard, but it's not too bad. Yeah, they only work in combos, because their purpose is to help extend combos.

I'm having some trouble getting in/staying in. People don't respect my pressure and just jab or dp out of my attempts of mixup. What do you do when you have them in the corner? I usually go for the overhead slide, but that gets blocked and I get punished.
