Guilty Gear XX Accent Core PLUS R: New update for GGXX! coming to Arcade, PSN, XBLA and now Vita!

Testament would be fine if he didnt have a 0 frame forward exe.beast

Frankly, I don’t care if you played Testament when he was low-tier. I also don’t care if you play him now. Tier whore…umm, whatever? I’m not labeling you anything. I think you should take your advice and play whoever your favorite is. Why do you care what other people think? If your character is good, then embrace it. Man.

Testament is good in the most recent revisions and he doesn’t look be getting any worse. End of story.

if they’re adding moves, maybe they’ll take away moves too!

Lookin at you baiken

I can’t tell what you’re trying to do here, but I’m reasonably certain it’s idiotic.

love the aba and zappa changes!!!

why?

Don’t worry, everything will be okay…

I can’t wait to play Slayer again (and with the changes). I don’t want to suck this time.

How do you guys think the sliding on 5HS will affect him since a lot of a his combos used the bounce it used to have?

sounds like a nerf

Hey, I see Chrome and Skype icons:)

I think Slayers 5H was used in a large amount of his high damage combos (restands, 5H IAD j.k j.K, 5H>j.H>j.K, etc) so it might tone down his maximum damage output a little. I see a lot of Slayers not really using that too much (except Hase and his attempts to always get max damage) so I’m sure Slayer players will find/have other things to do. You can maybe Mappa after the 5H and launch from there.

I don’t think it’ll be all that healthy for his BBU combo routes either. No BBU>5H>j~ADj.D-2K> stuff. You should still be able to use 6H and 2D though.

Just a few days before more information starts rolling in though. It’s still fun to see changes.I’m just especially sad about there being no more IAD j.K j.K, and no more 5K>6P FRC>5H corner combos.

yo, hold up…slayer’s 5hs slides now? Was there a second update or more translations beyond that initial announcement on srk or something?

Big Bang Upper was almost too good anyway, and it still will be super good even without the 5HS bounce shenanegans.

The initial video had like Undertow>BBU>5H>FB Dandy~Pile.
I know BBU is good, but I’m still gonna miss 5H stuffs. I fucking love that normal.
edit: video for reference.

I think he used the new HS Dandy Step into FB Pile looking at the meter deplete.

I want know what the FB Dandy Step does.

No, I think it was FB Dandy. I just think it moves forward like how Slayer would on the return from a normal Dandy. Maybe it’s invincible? And/or it lets you go into the move almost instantly?
I only say that since it was a normal Pile. Maybe HS Dandy moves forward, just slowly and without FB effects?

Question: when/where was it confirmed that “R” was the version coming to psn/xbla?

I guess that they haven’t actually said outright that it was R coming to consoles, but since the arcade version of “GGXXACplus” that was initially announced was announced along side the consoles ports, I think it was kind of implied. I don’t see why they would release regular AC after a new version was already released. And… even if they DID release regular AC first… since its an live/psn title, it wouldn’t be hard for them to update it with a simple patch which would make it R for probably very cheap to the consumer at some point. I will ask around and look into it. I’m going to the loketest this weekend in Tokyo. If no one there will answer my question I have other ways of getting information.

Oh my gawd it’s ElvenShadow?!?!

What do I do, what do I do?!?! KENJI, SAVE MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Cool. It would indeed make sense for “R” to come stateside, but I’ve seen companies make weird decisions. I’ll remain warily optimistic until I get more feedback though. Can’t wait to hear what you come back with. =)

P.S. I played plus on my wii but none of my roommates ever played 2d fighters with me (except for brawl). So I cant really say how I feel about the update since I didnt really have a way to get good aside from training alone…so I never got any good, though I loved the game. Can someone explain the changes to metagame and matchups they expect to see?
