Monster/Monster: Ancient Cline Discussion thread!

Zomg yay. On a saturday! can’t wait. I call the new Zonkey character!

I’ll be on (though I’ve never been in an IRC room before).

Well, i was waiting for new screenshots and info in the latest Arcadia Magazine (considering that Examu shows Suggoi! Arcana Heart 2 and Daemon Bride) but nothing =(

I will be there in the IRC channel… im not really “into the community” but i love Monster, so…

exciting!

/hype hype hype

Good stuff.

Hayama, you can be part of it now since if all goes well, netcode will allow you to have a taste of the US Monster scene. We’re like Lays, one is never enough.

How good is the Monster netplay? to be honest i just play with two guys here in my country but we love the game… is really THAT good? because, if this can be used as a comparison, i can play with US people in GGPO/2DF.

We arent really that good, but we enjoy the game a lot. Some time ago we tried to capture our matches with FRAPS but my CPU cant handle it (it works around 50/30 fps).

From what Aya has said about it, he can play ShoK from US to Japan perfectly fine and that playing people from the UK should be no problem. Don’t worry if you don’t think you’re any good, we all get better by playing each other and we honestly wouldn’t have been able to get better without that. You only grow as fast as your competition and we’d all still be scrubs if we didn’t have people like Fooligar, Aya and Spootz in our community to play and Xenozip to blog about shit to keep other people informed.

Plus if anything, we have people to capture footage already if you play with us if that’s any incentive and I will be trying to put together ranbat vids on youtube for everyone to enjoy. Just gotta buy me a new soundcard so I can capture sound.

Gah. Looks like you guys might even finish this thing early! That’s awesome. I guess I’ll look into joining the IRC.

Just let me know who is broken tier and fear not I will be spamming them.

Yeah, that was in the old testing that we did a few months ago. Monster was using a netcode similar to that of caster from iamp and it worked fine for me and Shok. I remember him saying he was going to try getting that netcode upgraded but we havent spoken much on the netcoding issue since that point so I dont really know whats going on as far as that is concerned anymore. When i find out, I will let you guys know. I think we will probably be testing that up until the 25th.

Is this date US date? Because if it is, that means I actually have to wait until it’s 26 here (Eastern time). XD

First in-game screenshots and a new character revealed (Oomizuao, Katze Sioux brother lol)

Graphics looking pretty good. The Indian cat dude in the Gap clothes is kinda weird looking, don’t know if I like it. The other dude looks like he could be in a Capcom Ghosts and Goblins game, cool!

nice find =D

interesting, very interesting

somewhere within the google translation, it says 6 new characters? wha? that cant be right?

I assumed that there was gonna be 2 new ones.

This was commented since the game was confirmed for Arcades, yep, 6 new chars.

Whoa, I’m liking Katze’s brother. He looks very um…proper compared to his (younger?) bro.

And Ha, I knew that elf guy was a new character the minute I saw his face on the AC website.

This is cool! Two New characters already and the designs are looking promising. I wonder what kind of fighting style they’re going to have? Gaaah, so tease!

Shaman of Haze, hmm? Why am I thinking that he’ll be a deceptive and tricky character with possible smoke or ice based attacks?

Looks super nice. I didn’t expect it to look that crisp. The interface looks quite nice too.

Edit: Have to say it again, this game level’d up very nicely.
Edit2: Oh hey there’s a Daemon Bride article too.

Ill make sure to tell shok everyone likes what they see lol. And this is just the beginning =P :evillaugh:

Is that Katze doing an airdash?!
