Fighting EX Layer - Lounge

But in Hokuto’s profile, she wiped away Nanase’s memories of the Mizugami and their conflicts so that she would live a normal life.

Fat chance that she will return due to that alone.

I don’t know if you can ever count on a fighting game sticking to it’s story.

Generally something like that means there is a huge chance of return, it is low key cliche because it does not happen in everything but usually something like that signifies the character will get their memory back one way or another bringing them back into story/fight what ever. At the most it signifies she might not return as an initial character but later on into the games cycle

The story behind Arika’s mysterious fighting game:

What a nice read, very cool that guest characters are a possibility.

Anyone find it interesting that Capcom included the EX characters in it’s latest popularity poll?

There could be a connection with Arika on this…

They are still in good terms but probably it’s about gameplay survey

Finally some news!

TL;DR

  • PSX will have a playable demo
  • The online beta begins on December 11th
  • The beta will have 6 characters: Kairi, Garuda, Skullomania, Darun Mister, Allen Snider, and Shirase.
  • The article has a screenshot of the Training Stage

It looks like this

I suppose we’ll have a trailer for the 7th character at PSX but he/she obviously won’t be ready for the beta

Those are some hype news, a 2 week long beta and I get my 2 fav EX chars (Allen and Darun). Also from that pic alone the game looks great.

That video is so hype (direct link for the lazy)! I really hope this game finds its way onto Steam.

So it finally has a name.
Eh, close enough. Would switch the ‘Layer’ and ‘EX’ around, obviously.

As much as I’d like this as well, I’m not holding my breath on it.

huh? New Shirase?

Game looks really good. Can’t wait for the beta!

I’m not much about graphics but holy shit, this is what SF5 should’ve looked like.

Two week long beta? Awesome. Wish more fighting games would have betas like this to get as much feedback as possible on gameplay and netcode. Can’t wait to use my old faves, Kairi and Shirase.

So 2 Shirase?

Who’s not be included? Blair, Cjack, Nanase or Pollum?

I prefer Cjack, Nanase and Pollum to be retain I like their gameplay kinda SFish than Blair. IMHO

I like how SFV looks but it has a lack of vibrant colors to it. Just look at how Allen and Darun look. Vibrant. I just wish people would stop using these training stages. They should use a dojo like KoF XIII did.

I’m really not a fan if the original Hokuto is discarded from the game and is replaced by Bloody Shirase completely

Yeah Hokuto was one of my favorites, but I’ll take Shin Hokuto or whatever that is. They need to put in Nanase also. Need long dick staff girl.

Game is looking good so far. Only things I’m not big on is the jumping and crouching normals being kinda samey (which is a SF EX thing I guess), the tinny sound effects that seem directly ported from the old arcade games and the lack of hit stop or screen shakes on stuff. Game so far reminds of KOF where things hit, but you don’t really feel any of it hitting. Like when Kairi does his throw where he slams your head on the ground repeatedly, the lack of sound and screen shake just makes it seem like they’re being hit against a pillow.

Hopefully that’s something that gets fixed as that’s one of the big issues I had with the presentation of KOF XIV. Spark effects were pretty subdued and the sounds and hit stops were very weak and didn’t draw you into the game much. As opposed to games like SFV, Marvel and Tekken where the sounds and shakes alone bring you into what’s happening. Activating power storm in Marvel turns everything into literal power hits on the screen. With Tekken you can literally close your eyes and still feel what is happening. Hopefully they can fix that up before launch.

Doctrine Dark must still be relatively unfinished.
