Oh! Suck it, shitty online Noels!
Maybe you’ll think twice about randomly throwing out that lame move now.
http://www.g-g-r.com/bbs/UploadFile/2009-9/20099261336726036.jpg
Act pulsr now has 3 variations and is performed using 236 A/B/C.
Damage reduction. edit: probably.
Bullet rain nerf, not gonna affect us noels, i’m just rejoicing at lambda getting the nerf cannon all over her. Arakune seems to be more interesting now, hopefully it won’t be too easy to acquire that super mode. the Jin slowing down i didn’t expect, i was only hoping they would redo the freezing gimmick. and carl… lolsorry

Looks like Ara will more than likely be fever cursing you once a fucking round. Hopefully there will be some fucked up auto fever combos that he can abuse.
I can’t believe how badly they nerfed Jin here. It seems like he’s not even worth using anymore.
This isn’t final at all. Just a loke test.
Wait till players get to really test it people. From what we know the system has changed pretty drastically, so we won’t know how things will go yet.
Lambda sounds interesting. I wonder what they’ll do now that she lost some of her BnBs. New act pulsr sounds cool though.
I was pretty wtf at that those Ragna changes until I read through the rest of the list.
AH seems to be more feasible under the new Heat Gauge system.
I hope bursting once with 2 stocks won’t get that permanent danger status, otherwise I’m liking the new system
So if Carl’s 8D is still untechable, and there’s nothing here saying that it became air blockable, and if airthrows are still in the game, that mean the only way for him to NOT have an infinite would be an airthrow limit…
HMMMMM, I THINK I PITCHED THAT TWO PAGES AGO, BABY!
I see that Nirvana is stronger… TWO FOR TWO, BABY!
and I get a bonus… fast projectile that reaches the corner? I THINK I’M ON FIRE!!!
EDIT: 4D still has super armor, 6D is the same, gear super is still godly for baiting burst, he still has his kara-canceled airdash and allegretto canceled j.2C. FREAKIN AWESOME
Hmm does Rachel’s j.2c not being cancelable on landing mean we can no longer use it to start combos? (still, mid air sword iris ftw)
Shame about Nu’s replacement not having a different voice vs Ragna, that was one of Nu’s best things.
Oh fuck I like Hakumen’s changes, FASTER C’s, NEW C’s, longer counter active times, plus some additional effect when you swat projectiles? YES PLEASE.
I kinda like how Jin and Hakumen have at least one move that looks like the other now lol
Pretty sure I’m picking up Tager now too =)
I’m with you, man.
So unnecessary, I mean honestly, no knocked down on B ice car???
Blow my dick, like really
It’s not like ice car was ever a great move! The only time you should be using it is in a combo, maybe a damage reduction would make more sense but wtf?!
j.2c sounds like shit. 6D easier to shake out of?
Why?
You CAN’T follow up on a CH C DP???
Whaa…
His DP’s got shit upon. Only 2 ice swords at a time is retarded, gonna be so easy to dodge.
So fucking stupid, I know this is VERY early and these are just tests, but some of these changes cannot go through
I might be saying goodbye to that little blond haired bastard
guess i will no longer be pissing carls players off by baiting the loop:sad:
just right when i was getting better at beating jins they make him easyer, this sucks :arazz:
Apparently Jin is emo to match the temperament of his players.
I see this alot, and I don’t get the reasoning behind it:
If Jin was even with Carl, Nu, Ara, and Rachel, and they all got nerfed, in order for him to still be the most balanced character, would not he also have to get nerfed? I’m not saying I agree with the changes or disagree, but it’s definitely something to think about before complaining.
EDIT: Looking at the list again, everyone got nerfed except the bottom 3
Any idea when this might hit console? I thought the game just came out in July? Does this mean another $60?
@D1- Thanks for the info mate! I wonder if this update will make playing with Tager easier >=3
So Nu13 is now Alpha11/Accent11?
yeah
gun car
bug car
nirvana car
sword car
science car
Now this is a thought that will be pondered, I think they should also give you the ability to control where it comes out (cl/mid/far range) as it would make good use of the slower start-up now (and that you could combo into it easier) imo
