Are you sure Pozer? When I bring up the test menu info on it, it gives the OCT 22, 2009 date. That was the date of the 4th loketest for BBCS OCT 22-24th IRC. There was still the fifth one done Oct 31st-Nov1st after this one too, and I remember reading there were still a few changes from 4th to 5th and then from 5th to final. I dunno maybe I’m thinking a little too easily by going on the date but it seems like it would at least have a November date if it was the final.
Interesting…
I haven’t tried Tsubaki yet, I have seen her potential though. I’ll give her a shot next time I play.
He doesn’t.
The loketest versions didn’t have an intro and they have custom win quotes saying stuff about the loketest.
And Iduno, we always knew that. Acsys brought laptops with them to demo BlazBlue, all they needed was an USB dongle.
Also, the only way to prevent this from happening in the future is to leave the X2. From a piracy based POV a custom PC running Windows is crazy. Honestly.
Agreed, I cant take this seriously in the least, Although its fun to be able to mess with the characters in their nerfed forms :/. I’m certain I’m still going to buy it.
As an arcade operator, this whole “leak” really troubles me. It shows the vulnerability of the TTX-2 hardware, and it also shows how quickly a leaked release can spread over the internet. I haven’t downloaded the game, and I honestly have no desire to either. I really hope that I don’t cruise into some other arcade later on and suddenly see BB:CS running on it, I’ll be highly skeptical of the place.
I also hope this doesn’t effect the chances of other high-end fighters showing up on TTX-2 hardware. Rumors have been stirring about SSF4, but with this leak, who knows what will happen.
I guess it depends on if this hack is usuable for all X2, or is specific to BBCS. But still, who thought it was a good idea to make use a standard PC as an arcade hardware… This kind of felt inevitable.
There’s not much info available about who or how this was done.
I won’t really say much, but this isn’t the first TTX-2 game to be cracked.
I’m wondering if this would have happened if a port had been anounced (assuming this isn’t a publicity stunt), doubt someone would have put effort into cracking this if they knew that console versions were just a few months down the line anyway. (Not laying on the blame or anything, just mentioning it because this has happened with other stuff like fansubbers not picking up anime that is being streamed by CR)
(Points at the above whilst staring at Examu)
Have ASW officialy said anthing about this yet by the way? It’d be rather interesting to see their reaction to this whole thing.
I actually surprisingly know someone who knew the hacker who made this crack.
Apparently, the hacker did not leak this all over the internet and did not intend to. It was originally only for a specific group of people to use it for combo videos and frame data.
The guy I knew was offered the crack two months ago but turned it down due to not having a good computer to run it on.
and so one of the hackers friends managed to leak the crack onto the interweb, and now that guy is in a world of shit from the guys who hacked it.
So is this gonna be an update via downloadable content or another new disc like SSF4
Considering that it’s just a measly 2 new characters and some other changes I can see this being only worth 10 bucks for the dlc
It’s more than that.
It making a “crap game with potential” into a “solid awesome game”.
I would imagine they are going to had a whole new story mode section, some new online modes, and a new mode a la score attack.
Just because they haven’t announced anything doesn’t mean they are going take the arcade version and slap 60 bucks on.
This kind of attitude is what fucks the communuity over. Aksys had already explained it before that the US version of CT being region locked was beyond their control. You’re a fucking idiot and you have no idea how business works. Do some fucking research as to why Europe gets extremely delayed releases compared to other regions before you run your ignorant mouth.
As for the leaked version, it is the final version of the game. As far as I know, the person who hacked it hacked the final version of the game. If you really want to blame someone for the leak, blame Xenozip for having the file publicly available as a torrent on his server. People have had the crack for weeks or months before the leak happened, and it didn’t get leaked out all over the Internet until Friday… which was the same day Xenozip decided to upload it to his website.
It’s the internet so it was bound to happen sooner or later, and it happens to almost every video game. So why act like it’s the end of the world?
Just enjoy finally being able to play the same version the Japanese are playing, and buy the console version when the time comes.
man, that sucks. Mine looks like an anime in hd. :lol: My pc is about 2 yrs old now I think though.
I’m hoping for an update but I have no problem buying a new game since I don’t have the original anymore.
I need to build a new PC. Come on tax return…
you sold it again?
