Toy and Gameland in Jersey City has copies for PS3 and Xbox is anyone wants to head there.
That sucks but I guess waiting a day isn’t gonna kill anyone. I have mine paid for and just need to pick it up at 10am tomorrow. Probably won’t play online for a little while though as I like learning some bread and butters before noobing it up.
I’m gonna suggest to everyone who’s new to the game to through the Intermediate and Advanced tutorials in the game. REALLY informative stuff in there. I was surprised.
anyone else confused by the whole gamestop ordeal?(one of them says it ships tuesday and comes out wednesday the one near me said it could come tuesday or it could come wednesday they don’t know…)
i never had to pre order calamity trigger and i went in on the first day and got a copy without any problems
Went to my local Gamestop at midnight and picked up SCII but couldn’t get BB:CS…Best Buy next to Tanforan in San Bruno said they’ll have it today.
I just go by the website. That says Tuesday and so far every time I go by that, that’s when it’s there. I get to pick mine up in about 2 hours, yay…Hit me up with a friend request for those of you on live.
I’m still leaning toward this just being the ship date and you won’t see it in many stores untill tomorrow.
I also posted in my own topic, but I want a quick response. (Sorry!)
Now I personally know nothing about Blazblue but been I’ve always been wanting to give this series a try. Is this sequel worth getting in terms of them not releasing another sequel in a short while? (I have a feeeling this is like Street Fighter IV to Super Street Fighter IV, but I could be wrong). Basically I don’t want to “waste” my money like I did on Street Fighter IV.
Also it seems that you have to pay for DLC characters. I don’t think Makoto is out yet, so I guess you guys can’t say too much about it. But, I already see character colors, voices, and some unlimited characters on the Xbox Live Marketplace. I don’t plan on getting the colors or voices, but what about the unlimited characters?
Finally if I do get this game, which platform should I get it for? I have a dual-modded stick, so I’d prefer the platform with a more diverse/“better” community.
Thanks for the help in advance.
i think Arc Systems had a blog post that said the game shipped yesterday
and some people already have it…
I called all the stores around me and all of them said that the game was shipped yesterday (Monday) and that it will be there today IF it was 1-day shipping.
I got my copy today from Gamestop.
So… buying CS today on several recommendations today! Looks fun, but I’ve never played CT.
Game stores where I live just stopped selling PC games on claims they can’t compete with steam or amazon.
On DLC charries, don’t mind 'em, but the scheduling seems odd and they seem a bit expensive
EDIT: PS3 and 360 have different covers.
I’ve heard that the disks on 360s get’s Mu’s ass and PS3 gets Tsubaki.
Confirmed by Dustloop.
360 = Litchi on cover, Mu on disc
PS3 = Cast on cover, Tsubaki on disc
Good to know. I might go out looking for a copy later today.
I’m mostly new to BlazBlue and all, and I gotta say that doing the combos in challenge mode are, well, a challenge. Please tell me that not all of these combos are required for advanced play because I can’t get past the first combo. I’m still not used to the buffering system.
Hate to break it to ya - for advanced play yeah, that’s what you’re looking at. Unlike SSF4’s mission mode, BBCS’ mission mode is a primer on some BnBs you’re going to want to know and are useful, especially since a lot of characters get their best damage off loops (Lambda, Taokaka, possibly Hakumen, Noel, not sure if any more but I think so) - most of those combos were taken from common play in the Japanese arcade version. Practice, practice, practice!
I just realized that I shouldn’t have said advanced play. I should’ve expected that for advanced play.
What’s hard for me, as said earlier, is getting used to the buffering system from one normal to another. I’m stuck on mission 3, obviously. I can do Tsubaki’s C, C, Aequum, Veritas combo, but I can’t quite get the four B moves to come out before hand.
EDIT: I just realized that I’ve been pressing the wrong button for B. I keep pressing the Y button which is what I have assigned for MP on my stick.
Been enjoying it so far. Challenge mode is great yeah it takes a while to get stuff down but all of it is viable in a real match a lot more than I can say for SSF4s stuff. Working on Hazama, Tsubaki, and Tager right now so if anybody wants to get some casuals in later let me know,
