SCV guide on it's way~

Small, but strong, tournament

Well the orb changes colors... It's...crystal colored(!?) And if I remember correctly Leixia still does have Xianghua's flail moves

Leixia is Xianghua's daughter and replacement, you are thinking of Viola. Also the CaS seems amazing, it's like IV's but on mega-steroids.

The internet is irrelevant to PR, Kilik had never been seen though OFFICIAL sources until today, they can't help leaks, but they aren't going to ignore their non-disclosure agreements because of it. Honestly since you know all the characters have been leaked, I'm even more confused as to why you actually thought you would learn anything new... Also they were picked at random, the question itself was irrelevant. In the end, quit crying and just get hype cause there's only a week left.

What are you getting upset at IGN for? Kilik has never been OFFICIALLY unveiled, and it's been known for awhile there are multiple bosses, and IGN never said they were revealing the LAST BOSS, they said a NEW boss. IGN delivered on everything they promised :s

Trust me, I saw the live stream, it wasn't anything spectacular, outside a few Nightmare combos. The exclusive boss reveal was just Kilik, and it wasn't the last boss just one of many.

In the end they've stated they have plans for up to SCVII, V marks a new chapter for the series so they want to try out new things, you should never shun a series for progression. I'm sure they have alot of love for those styles and characters, and if we make V successful, we will no doubt see them return in the future.

Alright stop that guys... There are other places to discuss this and it's an irrelevant point to talk about here.

I'm glad that they had Alpa Pat at least play uniquely from his former self, but yeah a new character would've been nice, but I'm not really stressing him... It's the fact they felt the need to make THREE FUCKING MIMICS :\ could've just made those parts for CaS... Also I'm only slightly mad at Omega Pyr, because she seems to play a bit more like Cassandra (from what limited play we could see...). I'm really just upset at the 2nd point, I'm not saying I'm less hyped, just disappointed in design choices.

Bamco fucked up :\ Seriously we don't need 3 different mimic characters, we don't need alt ver of the siblings, and you could have made at least 1 more unique character with Alpha Pat :\

More alt costumes

There's a rumor that SCV will have a code (button sequence) that unlocks all characters at the start, presumably for ease of use at tournaments.

A looks at more 2P costumes and a "new-ish" trailer

New characters and also and screens

Rosa should primarily use her jumping normals in combos or when she has no other option (see empty gun). Her Sawed-Off Shot gun has good range and allow you to stop alot (and it ignores alot, like shields and such) but of course you just have to keep in mind to keep it loaded, also be patient with your shots, and if one the ground throw in a few "fake outs" by either firing a delayed A or hold A then immediately follow up with B. Rosa is best at a distance as most of her practical stuff happens at range. If you're going to do close up combos you better make sure your execution is on point! Also Rosa is pretty meter hungry to the most damage.

Today's match vids

Not directly V related, but the original Soul Calibur for iOS.

Rimi vs Christina

Yes this has been confirmed some time ago, in North America you need to pre-order through Best Buy to get Dampierre, this is currently the only known way to get him (for "free") But given their record with SCIV and the fact he's smack dab in the middle of the character select screen, we will probably be released as paid DLC at a later date.

New match videos here. Also in the near future a live stream will be here.

Why did you have to jump to the worst possible situation? :| Also I wouldn't be so quick to call that "clothing damage" and that is actually nothing new to the series as small things like that have been in since 2 (like Tina and Bass wearing cowboy hats and them being knocked off mid combat, this would later apply to Bass' shades) If anything at the moment I'm more inclined to believe alternate costume rather than battle damage (again nothing new to the series, like Kasumi and Lei Fang being able to change hair styles on costumes). I don't see a practical situation wear her jacket would come off unless it occurred in a throw break or something similar.

new screens

Matches from SNK

This might be a possibility.
