New Akatsuki Blitzkampf in the works

The original had a comfortable zoning game but now due to battle fields being bigger and double jumps. The zoning in this game seems very different.

pretty interesting hopefully we get more info soon time.

One of the weird changes to me was how air attacks were handled.

In ABK, you could do stuff like j.A and whiff a bunch of j.As. After a j.A that whiffs, you might even do something completely different, like reflector, command normal, air throw, j.C whatever.

In this one, after you whiff that one j.A… that’s all you get for that jump.

Pounding the A button will go into a specified chain combo, often ending with some knockdown or other attack with lengthy recovery (as opposed to just being rapid fire jabs). So that means it’s quite a bit more difficult to get that dozens-of-hits combo made of mostly jabs on Blitztank.

it also means you can’t just mash 2A to hit confirm into a combo because generally after the 2nd or 3rd one, youre not gonna be able to chain into something that gives you good damage.

New match vids up on kouhatsu.

Can anyone explain to me how the meter below Perfecti’s health bar works?

Those are some damn good matches. Thanks for tellin us about the new vids. :woot:

The meter below Perfecti’s health bar looks like the current charge or her Turn Around [media=youtube]kAaeE7dDSwk"[/media].

Apparently people were paid to keep playing this game well into 2011 and record some footage, so here is some. Before you say anything, I’m just the messenger.

Akatuski vs. Kanae: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQPe5Hg9tRs
Fritz vs. Tempelritter: Fritz… Fritz never changes.
Sai vs. Kati: Goddamn this game is ugly.
En-Eins vs. Soldat: En-Eins is… see for yourself!

Major damage!

Those hit and block effects are visually loud.

How do you pay someone to play a game at an arcade?

I really like this series, I have the 2nd version released for Naomi and it’s damn good even with censoring. Too bad they took it in the Loli-sparkle direction with the 3rd game.

With the next release of Demul and if the netcode is improved I hope we can at least get some online interest going.

I’m also annoyed that they’ve completely ignored the Western market. Shit man, even Pedo Fighter 3 aka Arcana Heart has been released here. Why not this game? I’d loveto see it released on Steam.

Examu isn’t a doujin circle.

No other explanation :looney:

You are a closet-minded monster! Just because it isn’t Ryu fighter 4 doesn’t mean you have to hate.

if only they kept the first game how it was =[ add to that, pt2 never came out =]

The first game was terrible. Akatsuki wasn’t any good until Blitzkampf.

im talking about the first blitz

i can HEAR the lights, man :eek:

I think that’s a serious medical condition. You might want to go see someone about that.

its called Synesthesia, and im sure that he is joking

I really don’t understand why anyone would play this over blitzkampf

ANIME

so after watching the vids, was katie that joyful? or they changed her animations for this one?
also is this game out or what?
cuz so far i only have seen videos of ko-hatsu, its like if they were the only ones with the game
