It's the Konami Code. Ancientmeme stuff. Konami used it in most of their NES and SNES-era games. Everyone who grew up with that era knows it because nobody beat Contra without it when they were that young. Hence my assumption that you're too young to be on the internet. There's scary stuff here y'know.

Yeah, us Aussies huh. So where you from? UK would probably be my first guess. And I was planning on getting the Australian 360 version (our versions lately are just PAL with the other language options hidden away) but I'm not sure anymore. These DLC delays are getting to the point where maybe the 'it's never coming' conspiracy theorists are actually right. And 'DLC PS3 gets that 360 doesn't' is boycott territory, especially since I wanted Makoto as a sub.

Sorry, you are right. I run my mouth too much sometimes. :I

tiers are dumb, ragna def needs that nerf

"What is BB:CS II? BBCS II has been announced for arcades and will include balance changes as well as all the console exclusive characters. It will be released in japanese arcades in December. No news on how this rebalance will come to consoles (patch? new disc?)." "has been announced for arcades... will be released in japanese arcades" That does not at any point say it's been confirmed for consoles so don't act like it's obvious.

There's still a number of things that can be gathered from old loketests, even the first one. Berial Edge got nerfed, Rachel's damage was generally buffed, Tager's hitbox was changed and 6A was turned into some kind of God-move, Arakune and Litchi had overall damage decreases, Tsubaki's charge went crazy... Those are all very general and needed changes that will almost certainly not be reverted. Also Hakumen's gauge has gotten progressively slower since Loketest 2, so that's not about to get any faster, and Tager got that overall magnetism buff in Loketest 2 that could see him balanced completely (among other stuff) so loketest 2 vids are real valuable too.
-
Are there any vids at all of Tager? Really eager to see just how much his magnetism has been buffed, because that could solve just about all of his problems, in a very cool way at that.

I need to admit first of all that I've never played as Arakune so I don't have /that/ much of an idea what I'm talking about, or people tend to yell at me. Which is why this is a question. How do these three points not lead to eruption of celebration? This whole thread seems to be moping, even if I can see why. Like yeah I get that curse being not an instawin is rough when you already had to work sort of hard for it (against the faster cast members anyway) and I get that curse has mostly been made even harder to do... But a move adding an instant curse with CS' curse time as pretty insane. It's not as if huge-damage loops was all Curse had. It's extremely hard to guard, and even if you do guard it all you're likely to suffer a guard crush. If you get guard crushed, you're almost certainly going to eat either 5k damage or a recurse. It does a ton of chip damage. Even tiny random off-hits are likely to do at least 4k, and reset options are among the best in the game. The potential for crazy shit is there. I know his normals are terrible, unsafe, etc, but maybe Arakune players will just have to take more risks, ie the exact opposite of the CS1 Arakune playstyle. 100% curse isn't exactly a small reward.

[CS2] Platinum the Trinity Actual Discussion Thread The First
Shinkada replied to Circuitous's topic in Archive
Fixed. Anyway, I'm really not liking this corner damage change. I mean it could be worse since getting out of the corner is... Well, not easy, but easier than games that don't have four-way ground teching. But it's still ridiculous that the only way to get damage is wedging someone into a corner. BB's attempt to please the "OKIZEME IS WHAT MAKES A GAME" group that seems to insist BB is for scrubs, I guess. I mean CS1's ability to turn every poke into a 4k bnb wasn't good either but it'd be nice if we could have something that was middle-ground? Y'know, no random hit connects turning into full combos, and no stupidhuge corner loops? Maybe some mid-screen combos that just require strong hit confirms? Guess I'm asking for too much. :I Anyway gone off topic, loli loli haha sugoi -
Man you're lucky, if I ever said that I'd get flamed to hell in three seconds dead. That's basically it though, oh no, jC isn't godtier. How will I ever move on, other than, I don't know, using a different move? It's not as if jC has some amazing and unique property that makes it interesting or somehow suit Litchi's style, it's just a normal that's brokenly good. God forbid you might have to use 2C instead. Pressing down instead of up? World over guys.

>>Hakumen's meter gain >>White VoiD-Tier also lol 4k off 5A, Arksys proving they're the BEST GAME DEVELOPERS EVER.
-
From Ragna's patch notes, I think he'll probably be getting, roughly, low 3k's midscreen and high 3k's/low 4k's in corner. Someone with as much area control as Litchi doing more damage than Rags would be pretty silly.

I know this is going to get called a troll instantly, but it's not, I really am curious; do you guys remember what BB's balance is? Hakumen takes at least 3 magatamas to do 4k damage, and he's slow and has barely a thing to deal with zoning so you'd expect his damage to be well above average. Hazama can't even get above 2.5k unless he's got 50% gauge or fairly strict positioning. Tager can hit 4k but with his speed and options his damage should probably be the highest of the cast. Tsubaki... Well, we know she's only above Rachel, but even so her damage is miserable. Even Bang doesn't see much above 3k unless he cracks out Daifunken. The way BB's damage goes, 3.5k seems to be the average without meter. Considering that her meter gain is among the best of the cast, her okizeme IS the best of the cast, and her zoning certainly isn't bad either, her combo damage really shouldn't be more than about 3k. ... And you're saying, "Yeah, 4.5k is alright"? Like I know you're used to 5.5k but you've got to realize that's a big, big part of why she's S-Tier, and the part that should be removed to make her B-Tier (as opposed to keeping absurd damage and lowering her oki). And yes, I know her execution is very difficult, but it's not so difficult that a lot of people can't get it down to a 100% success rate, so as much as it's hard on new players, that means she has to be in line with everyone else. I don't want to see Rachel handing down the wheelchair but I also want to see S-Tier just abolished, and keeping it to a nice tight A, B and C tier.

Actually I haven't BEEN to a tourney in 3 years because, even though I'm not stupid enough to consider okizeme cheap anymore, I still find it immensely boring. Stopped playing GG competetively not long after those matches. So yeah he'd still hand my ass to me. Though I might give BB a try once it finally comes out in this worthless country. Too tired and laughed out to troll anymore. Thread ended with that awesome fishing pic I stumbled across as far as I'm concerned. You were great guys.

Hey cool, my laughably terrible, 3-year-old matches. Thanks man. Good memories.
