My exact thoughts. I just hope that they DO learn from their mistakes this time.
I havn’t had a chance to try BB, what flaws did it have? Like what made the opinion turn against BB? I thought it was well liked until I read this thread.
Was it Nu/Arakune being too annoying or what?
more liek the top 3 way to good over everyone else.if those 3 werent in the list the game wouldv prolly been one of the most balanced game aside from carl loop.but lets see what they did in the next version.
Well, I only spectating the Southeast scene, but from what I understand Rachel was insane as well.
My personal issues with was how the negative penalty worked and how lop-sided some of the matchups were.
…I mean, I really didn’t even like the speed of the game and how A moves beat so much so they made the damage scale for them crazy. All this is just my personal taste though.
I feel completely underwhelmed by Tsubaki’s new design. I really like the typical uniform she was wearing in the true ending and was hoping for that costume with some new fighting style. Instead we get some Arcana Hearts-esque design though it wouldn’t surprise me if she was the new boss of the game and is overpowered in some way.
WTF at that new Arakune move. I hope that’s an appropriate balance to whatever nerf he’s getting because I don’t think we need more lock down tools for him.
Rachel looks like she got older or at least taller in that other pic as well but it’s kind of hard to tell.
Dont nurf arakune.
Nu can be nurfed .
buff up the basically un-usable at high level play characters.
tighten up the physics…and BB is Golden.
No! My lolis… :bluu:
it looks even more beautiful than the first, and look at that jin move, it’s like some ukyo tachibana speed slash type jazz…rambling
isn’t there two "u"s in “continuum”?
also arakune and nu will get several beaten with nerf bats. rachel won’t be because she’s a classy lady (though the pumpkin may get smashed).
seriously though, i just wanna see how they’ll fix up tager & haku-men without making them freakishly super powered
Someone on dustloop tranlated part of the article and apparently he’s getting more ways to curse. Hopefully this comes with a liberal damage nef:chainsaw:
Also this might be the nyquil talking but does tager look a lil bit shorter in that pic?
Reduce the startup on some of Tager’s moves while reducing the damage of his throws, IMO. It’s just too easy to score a CH on his 5d, 5c, 6a, etc. Tager isn’t that bad, I feel like most of his problems stem from his monster hitbox and some of the mechanics of the top tier characters.
For Hakumen I really don’t know, as I don’t know any Hakumen players nor have I ever faced any I really feared online…
Nerf Nu to hell. I want to see how many people keep playing her. :smokin:
I thought I was the only one, Rachel does look taller. Either that or that pic of her is messed up. 
I also liked Tsubaki’s old costume … :sad:
Here’s an update from dustloop as well as picture spectulation.
Arakune - New way to curse. Whoopee…
Rachel - New distortion, might replace the old one. Who knows.
Ragna - New spike downwards dealie…
Litchi - New spin move off the staff
Jin - New freeze move, might be a counter like Hakumen.
Of course they’re only going to talk about the buffs characters are getting because it’s a promotional piece. They’re not going to talk about nerfs in a promotional piece because they’re going to want people to read it and go “COOL!” for their mains.
So when they read about arakune getting new ways to curse, it’s a marketing tool for Arakune players (not high level pros, mind you, a promotional piece isn’t written just for the serious players) to read it and say “Oh cool!”
Think about it. When you read an article breaking news about another iteration of something, it only focuses on the cool new things. Nerfs don’t sound cool at all. That’s why they won’t be talked about probably until later.
The possibility may be that Arakune may be getting more ways to curse, but his curses could also be in the process of being nerfed. Or Arakune no longer curses on block, so he needs the move or whatever.
It’s marketing. You wont hear any serious balance changes until a little bit later. Right now they’re just trying to show off the cool new toys everyone is going to be getting.
PS: Make throws not suck and give hakumen some upgradez.
Nice post Simplekiss ^^
That shit better be 100% speculation. The one character with an actually original drive doesn’t need the overhaul. Maybe a nerf, but not a complete overhaul.
Stop complaining and just wait for the game… XX was great but #r was considered perfect for the time… tis only time.
Also fuck trashblue.
PS. Sup Hbrd!

LOL @ people that expect a GG to GGXC+ evolution in the course of one game. There was a reason why there was a few games between, they were trying stuff out. I agree with that one statement that there will be more than one character easily. I just wonder if they will do DLC tho.
oh good
