May was a fast charge character. I never recalled her ever being slow save a couple of regular moves to say the least.
I disliked noel at first too, but she has grown into me, but now that i’ve seen this…
Seems like her game will completely change i wouldn’t mind having to relearn the character, I really don’t think Arcsys made noel to use loops like that and all.
Man we still gotta go through this Kokonoe shit? 
Arc Sys you know you wanna make another Slayer character! Valkenhayyyyyne!
LOL A lot of us want our favorite Guilty Gear character represented in BB somehow. Especially me.
I want a whole new character. They’ve gotta introduce a brand new character into the game.
Wheres my Bridget??!!
So how big a mechanic change are we talking for Arakune? Am I going to have to effectively re-learn the character?
See Carl. They just gave Bridget a top hat.
Huh, next year is going to be a lot like this year
In spring Super street fighter IV will hold me over until Blazblue: CS
much like SFIV held me over till BB:CT
It’s a drastic change, but not sure about relearning.
basically, you have to fill up your curse meter with a bunch of curses rather than cursing then releasing bees.
So Arakune starts the round with an empty curse meter. Whenever he curses the opponent, the meter fills up some. When the meter is full, Arakune goes super saiyan or some shit, then he can summon his bees, only the bees are huge.
i for one am glad at any and all changes done to everybody and lol at rachel receiving literally 1 buff and tager literally receiving 1 nerf, as a tager and hakumen dude this is fan fuckin tastic news seemed like they listened to all of us low tier peeps, cant wait for this fantastic continuation of this game. hope all changes stay for good!!!
+one
I’m still hoping for most of the NPCs we’ve seen to become playable characters. I’m loving Hazama. I never wanted Tsubak,i but I’ll take it. I’m mainly wishing for Makoto and Valkenhayne. Jubei would be awesome but considering the little cat easily stopped a punch from Tager in one scene, I can’t really see him accurately interpreted without being overpowered.
I do like the changes I’ve seen so far. Looks like everyone will need to be re-learned to at least a small extent. I’m definitely looking forward to seeing how this upgraded version of Tager works, especially considering I’ll have to magnetize more often. Of course I can’t wait to try out Hazama, either. I’m not the first to say he reminds me of Axl-Low from Guilty Gear and since Axl was my favorite character in those games… well obviously I am pleased. :]
Yeah, same here.
I’m really fucking excited for SSF4, a ton of new characters, hopefully a few good tweaks here and there.
It’s gonna bring SO much new hype to not only SF but fighting games in general, EVO is gonna be absolutely insane next year.
I couldn’t care less. I just want me some T6 and then new BB next year.
Honestly 3S characters in SSF4 makes me just want to main 3S Q ftw!!!
Yes. Street Fighter is ‘meh’. C. Viper is the coolest thing they’ve come up with ever, and I feel she belongs in an ArcSys game. Trade Viper for Jin, imo; they fit better in each others’ series.
EDIT: Any speculation on the next new character to be revealed in Shift? I kinda want it to be Kokonoe, though, chances are I won’t be using her, or any of the new characters, but it’d be nice if she was in the roster.
I’d be surprised if they added any other characters. I’m pretty sure Terumi/Hazama and Tsubaki is all we’re getting with this update.
Nooo Kokonoe is dumb. More Six Heroes plz.
And ShinobiB might be right :\ hope not though
Typical for a “ASW” guy. I personally love both franchises, both bring something new and different to the table.
But I don’t know, for some reason, there’s just so much more hype and excitement when it comes to SF and capcom games in general during the WCW BB top 8, the room was like super dead even when Mike Z was up.
Don’t know what it is, but Capcom knows how to stir up hype in there games.
That’s mainly why I’m more excited for SSF4 especially since there’s gonna be more characters and the game itself is just so much more balanced
EDIT: As for who the new character will be, there’s a good possibility there won’t be another new character.
I wouldn’t rule it out though, and if there is a another character in store for us, I think it’d probably Jubei.
He was pretty instrumental in the story, probably one of the most important NPC’s in the game so I would imagine I would be him.
I wouldn’t be mad if there were only 2 new characters, the cast wasn’t that large to begin with so it’s all good
Guess i was one of the few who liked her from start (aka japanese arcade release)
