Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 . The next greatest anime fighting game. Online!

after playing online for a few hours…

it got…

fun.

I managed to develop strategies to consistently win.

Unfortunately, I realized that the more strategy I used, the less fun it became.

Sad is me.

i like the naruto series and was gonna cop it this week. i might pass from reading this thread.

so the consensus is it’s still not fun playing casually? i don’t care about online, just for playin with friends locally. and UNS1 was meh to me.

argh i wanna buy it since blazblue got delayd AGAIN.

but not sure yet :frowning:

I dont have a Dreamcast or XBox :sad:

Guys is it just me, or is it alot harder to escape being comboed when your opponent is in his/her awakening? I’m mainly talking about the non-uber awakenings that only give the character +damage or +speed, etc. I dunno if it’s just me, but that would be a nice feature otherwise because those types of awakenings are pretty useless.

Can u play it with the arcade stick? it IS a fighting game after all, right?

You can if you want… but it’s not the kind of game that gains any advantage from doing so.

Nope, you need the D-Pad for items unless I’m mistaken.

Hmm

DAT flowchart !

^ why

i don’t know how you would even 1 bar down against anyone with her…all of her normals were all slow as shit and incredibly easy to get out of anything she did.

even her specials were kinda gross

someone tell me if tenten is still retarded i will get the game when its cheaper if she is

Her main source of damage was really just her chakra shurikens which was faster and dealt more damage than other’s chakra shurikens (excluding Tenten’s lol) and her grab because of it’s range. She was also able to do 1, 2, 3 > X-Dash cancel > aerial chain which was pretty safe from opponents KnJing. Also, Bomb ball on counter hit was super gdlk. She was bad but you could still manage to pull out a win.

In this game though, she’s really fucking bad. One chain that can’t be canceled (so it’s not safe), ass quality jutsu and ougi animation. She has long range chains with shurikens (square) but the most damaging part of the chain don’t even connect with the rest of the combo. Good shit, CC2.

I’ve beaten the story mode and played Ranked for a while (32/9) and the game is really fun. My only complaints are that Sasori, Deidara, and Itachi are extremely broken. Sasori’s Awakening is ridiculous and Itachi’s is as well. But, Deidara and his projectile spamming is just retarted. He can keep you helpless from the other side of the screen for the whole match, with the help of his support characters. KNJ’ing doesn’t even help. Lol, all but one of my losses came from either Deidara, Sasori, Itachi, or suspicious lag.

Yo, I’m just wondering what happened to the quick-time button pressing contests and shit the original had in versus. To me, they always added an extra element of fun. Did they take those out completely in UNS2?

Yea, it’s gone. It would’ve probably been a burden online anyway.

Wow… I feel a little bit empty on the inside.

Lol. They could have atleast gave us an option for it but, hey, what can you do…

The games fun if you play people you know. Going online and fighting Minatox100000000000000000000 isn’t fun.

Hmmm maybe I’m playing against crappy Sasori players, but I have no problem avoiding his awakening until the time runs out. I just constantly ninja jump to the side and all his attacks miss. If he hits you then you’re fucked though :lol: but I find his awakening much easier to deal with than Naruto’s or Itachi’s.

so how’s the casual single player mode? that would be the only reason i’d get this game - i wish they were good they are so pretty hahaha

Fight my Sasori then Bronzefist!
I’ll show you true Brokeness >:D

haha np. add me next time you’re on!

Random thoughts/observations:

Wtf is up with people getting a free full bar of chakra when their health gets low?!?. As if KnJ, safe jutsu spam, and faster activating awakenings wasn’t bad enough they go and add this garbage. It really fucking annoys me when I attack someone after they’ve exhausted their chakra, only to see him/her get a full bar for free.

Apparently Kiba is god tier since his jutsu is always safe and breaks block if your opponent blocks it twice. It also goes through the opponent and doesn’t make Kiba stop in his/her face when blocked.

Chiyo’s chakra shurikens are GDLK. I have a scrubby spam team of Temari (on point), with Chiyo and Sasuke (both balanced) on assist. After you get the assist bar high enough you can spam a ridiculous amount of projectiles at the opponent. I’m sure Deidara would be better on point than Temari but I’m not yet ready to step my game up to that level of cheapness :rofl:

I can never side-jump away from Deidara’s jutsu where he sends to two big birds after you. Can you EVER side jump that shit?!?! It always hits me.
