Monster/Monster: Ancient Cline Discussion thread!

in a sense. he isnt exactly doing an airdash persae. Freedom has changed quite a bit from what it used to be. Freedom now uses “FRC like” execution to do combos. Katze’s freedom shift move is a dash. That picture shows him doing that move in the air

Isn’t that the usual double jump effect? Maybe that particular shot makes it look like a dash?

Edit: Oh >.>

The double jump effect is different. You can only jump upwards with it, whether it be backwards, straight up or forward again after. The Shift move is brand new and allows Katze to dash forward in mid-air. What’s great about this is that since dash canceling was removed, this has been it’s new replacement and being able to dash in the air or on the ground makes it a badass feature.

P.S. Maya looks funny lol.

i uploaded another peice of test footage. Coming soon will be actual ingame footage.

Unblockable!

there you go lol

Wow, this look amazing, really a good changes for sure, about the new brother of Katze, well, looks…like katze with another body but any new character is always great.

Well as Hayama Said previously we play monster here with a few guys,

i’ll try to upload some matches from me and Hayama, we really get a lot of fun with this game.

Anyone can enter to the Monster irc channel?

you bet =D the more the merrier too, Monster doesnt get quite the appreciation that other games get, so people that are actually interested in playing and stuff are more than welcome to come hang out!

o m g It looks like im not gonna have to switch from freedom =D =D =D

getting more excited about this with every post from aya, or chipv5, or whatever the hell your name is lol

My name is Aya lol. I actually dont even play guilty gear lol. Which is ironic i would have this name for when i did a long time ago. Anyway. Just call me aya.

lmao at Katze’s bro

I’ve been halfway following the threads on this game, and if there’s still time, and if the creator can be reached, I’d like to seriously propose some better, more natural anglicizing of the names (but still matching the original Japanese).

This -is- the 21st century, after all, and translations have gotten MUCH better than ‘All your base’… I’d hate to see this game suffer from bad transliterations.

Edit:
From what I can see, the two BIGGEST offenders are:

  • ‘Siely’. Put this name to any native english-speaker, and it’ll sound (almost literally) like ‘silly’.
  • ‘Rail’. Almost guaranteed to be said like a road, or the gun.

…I’m loving this game. The hi-res sprites look really NICE.

…But are we sure that it’s Katze’s “brother”? They don’t even appear to be in the same species (he looks like a coyote, imo), much less he doesn’t share Katze’s sur-name of “Wildfang”.

Loving the fake screen shot! LOL…

Game actually looks pretty good, compared to the origional of course. Glad to see these guys actually got a chance to take it further. Not that the game didn’t deserve it, but it’s not often games like these get a propper arcade port. Good shit…

Haha, the “Katze Sioux brother” thing was just a joke.

I before e, except after c? haha Anyway I always thought of Siely as Si - lee, or See - lee.

Why cant his name be rail??? Seems like as good of name as any to me.

You missed my favorite. “Winner is standing side of grounded loser.”

Personally? I like the engrish.

hahaha nice =D

Well my only criticism concerning that shaman character is that his outfit is just a bit uninteresting. I’d understand due to it being a 2D fighter with sprites, but I know that Shok uses 3D models for the characters. Couldn’t he have added some more details to that guy’s suit? It’s just a bit too plain.

Asides from that…yeah, this is looking great.

his look reminds me of aoko

Never know, the sprite might be badass, the artwork rarely reflects the character sprites in Monster. If anything, Maya’s dress still looks horrible to me lol. I just hope that the game doesn’t get more race characters. Rail and Efleet, now Katze and Chieftain Haze.

Also to reply to Tiberious, some translations are better off left alone. Siely’s name is unique and the name was discussed before as probably being Shirly rather, but Siely is an interesting name already. Rail is also not a mistranslation for Road, ever heard of a rail gun? Rail shoots beams of them from between his legs while he flips backwards in the air. The game is full of odd names such as Katze (Cats), Aleksandr (Alexander), Orju (Ore-Jew) and Delga (Dell-Gah). They really aren’t any problems with them and I happen to like them all except Ryougen because I can’t remember how to properly spell his name, keep flipping the o and u.

Yeah he has a more canine-ish appearance than a feline.

Oh, wasn’t Shok part of a development team in Capcom before? Could this mean Capcom could “borrow” his characters a la Strider Hiryu? I wouldn’t mind seeing Katze or Othello in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom. :stuck_out_tongue:

Blood lockdown is broken.
