Hard to imagine her not remaining high/top tier. Izanami looks like she’ll stay pretty strong also potentially. Every other top tier got some pretty drastic nerfs so questionable how strong they will stay.
Nine could stay mid mid-high potentially but she’s going to have some bad matchups now against the more dedicated zoning characters Lambda/Nu.
What it sounded like is that the NA Console patch will come out the same day. Just…potentially way later in the same day because of like time zones and stuff.
Really enjoying this game, it plays incredibly. Naoto is my new favorite character, managed to learn a few of his good combos. Did it on a PC gamepad since I’ve never owned a stick in my life.
Another gif, but it came out psychedelic, basically the version of the combo that works on smaller characters, does about 3499.
Do any high level players use a gamepad or are all tournament winners stick players?
Naoto is such a boss, I hope they bring in Raquel as well, she would probably play like a faster, more melee oriented version of Rachel or a different style of zoning, with a similar wind based Drive, depleting meter differently, based on how long the drive button is held? Tons of possibilities. She’s got a single sprite in-game already.
I believe I saw one at evo top 8 earlier this year, and the button configuration is definitely very pad friendly, so I don’t imagine that top-level pad play is unheard of, even if it’s rare. As for Raquel, I doubt she’s getting in. 2.0 is coming this month, alongside Jubei, and with Cross Tag Battle coming next year, I don’t think we’re getting any more dlc fighters besides him. Plus, just having a sprite in the game doesn’t do a character much good, especually when it’s just of them sitting on someone’s back.
@Mylzileto Awesome, do you know what gamepad he was using? My biggest gripe with gamepad controllers is that the little plastic cross inside keeps breaking, and once it does, it becomes hard to do even DP inputs.
I see your point, speaking of new characters, I’ve seen people on other forums talking about somebody named Cajun being a DLC character next.
Couldn’t tell, it was at a weird angle and I’m not terribly familiar with them, I usually just use what comes with the console. That said I’ve heard good things the stock ps4 pad, and I’m sure a bit of digging could find you something that’s a bit more durable if that’s what you’re already using. I hear (but but have not tested, don’t have it) that the specialized Pokken controller works on ps3 and pc.
I see. Anyways, I’m using a PC gamepad that happens to work on PS3, although I hear that BBCF tournaments are ran on PS4, so I’m trying to figure out what to do: get a PC to PS4 converter or just buy a new controller for PS4, even though I don’t own the system. It’s a cheap Tomec controller, but has the best dpad I’ve ever used, as well as being extremely lightweight.
Can vouch for the quality of the fighting commander pads, they’re good stuff. As for the face buttons, not really sure why you’d be against having another L1/R1 option? Unless you’ve got giant hands I can’t see them ever getting in the way or pressed accidently with the way the pad is designed…
Well, I’ll give the only 6 faced buttoned gamepad I have a chance again, I just can’t combo properly the last time I tried it. My index fingers handle the left and right triggers for instant grabs or the left which has a four button press mapped to it. That leaves the thumb for handling four buttons on its own, so with six face buttons, I keep hitting the R1 and R2 buttons with my thumb, as well as the fact that my thumb wouldn’t be able to handle 6 buttons all at once by itself if I fully mapped it.
Anyways, I found the missingno level, anybody else seen this?
I ended up getting this controller 3 weeks ago. The non-BB version of it though.
It turned out to be the best gamepad I’ve used. So far, the dpad hasn’t broken yet like with previous controllers, and I’m able to input commands with a 100% rate(other controllers, due to the broken dpad, would only register commands at a rate of 30% to 60%, which would lead to a lot of losses.
