Got the Japanese version as a present, so I plan on getting the Western version digitally.
*Getting the digital NA version on day 1, hopefully it comes with a free DLC character like the AMAZON and club Bamco versions.
I’m thinking about double dipping though. I’ll prob get a physical copy of either the NA or JPN version as well.*
I don’t plan on getting the NA version unless the updates don’t get back-ported to the JP version, and that’s assuming the “framerate fixes” are even that noticeable. If they aren’t, I don’t see a need to get it since I have all the DLC and only play offline for the mostpart. That being said though:
tl_crow, we should try playing online for the fuck of it, just to see how unplayable it is.
just wait for the western version, why on earth would you buy the jap version now? lol
if you’re EU, add me
if the western updates don’t get back-ported and the framerate fix is not noticeable (even tho my friends who tried it said it looked smoother) there’s still the mystery about a possible 1.04+ we’re gonna get… remember jotaro canceling his oraora into dp oraora? and a friend of mine said jotaro got armor during star finger, which he hasn’t in the current 1.04…
I have the jpn version currently but still gonna pick up the western release physically, but being in Canada, it’ll likely take 2 weeks+ for it to get mailed to me lol.
ooh shit Demo on the 8th!!! Guess we’ll see if the secret changes are true for whatever chars are on the Demo. (Jotaro and Dio are a given, wonder who else…)
First I’m hearing about another change on Jotaro. This mystery 1.05 is starting to sound more and more likely. Hopefully the demo does have these changes to play around with.
^ Never seen anyone do this before. Okuyasu knocks down with throw and does a meaty 5B, which hits and allows him to link a 5A afterwards.
ASB demo is up on the North American Playstation store. Have at it folks, I’m downloading it right now.
I am at work, ahhhh ;_;
You guys better figure out if it’s got DEM SECRET UPGRADES
*I’m reposting this from the OTHER jojo general thread:
No name changes. In the demo Jotarus name has been changed back to Kujo from Cujoh/Kujoh. Thank god.
Only 3 playable characters: Jotaru, Vamp Dio and Ceasar.
Only 1 playable game mode: Arcade mode.
Game is faster than how it looks in the videos. Some of the normals/movement comes out a little slower than I expected. First time touching the game and I’m getting hella excited. Will have more thoughts as i get more time with the demo.
Any quick changes you want me to test? I can try checking some of Jotarus stuff. *
Try that weird OraOra xx DP thing that was in the French Casuals video, I guess?
Uhh. Test normal BnB’s with those characters, as well? That might be tough without training mode, I’d love to know if PB Dio’s launch > land 2A Rekka stuff is still there. Ceaser combos are pretty dry (ABC EX uppercut J.B ABC 46+ATK Super) so I doubt they changed, and Jotaro inhale combos are likely not a thing you’ll figure out in the demo if it’s your first time playing.
Jotaro OraOraXXDP doesn’t work, clearly an older build of the game as demos usually are. You can fight CPU Gyro, and the Cairo stage still lags pretty badly when you have a Son and all the corpse parts still on the ground.
Moral of the story: never expect new things in a demo. 99% of the time, demos are old versions of the game.
I am really, really okay with that. Thank you for the speedy reply Turbovec :>
just played it and i’m pretty satisfied, caesar EX bubble cutter gives no framedrop and i spammed the hell out of it! i didn’t get any lag against gyro in cairo stage as well… and i played the whole time with s.on jotaro to make it sure
jotaro’s oraora and hha are even more faster, animation wise, wish the whole game was 60fps…
jotaro has always been Kujo, that’s Jolyne with the Cujoh surname but that’s how she’s named in the manga as well
and about the slower normals/movement i didn’t notice it, is this the first time you try the game? i play it since jap day one and i found nothing different except the fix to framedrop
We’re in luck haha, I’m EU (England) so I’ll be adding you as soon as I get the game. I’ll be picking up Jolyne.
cool!
*First time! I thought normals and characters movement would come out faster and respond faster, respectively. But in actuality there is more startup time than what i expected. Ceasar in particular feels a little on the sluggish side compared to the other 2. *
Demo also has Avdol CPU. I didn’t notice any framerate issues either, but then again my setup is on a 19’ screen
