New GGXX/#R v.2? (testing in Ikebukuro)?

Um…
How else do I play #R on my ps2 :rolleyes: :lol:

I still don’t know how I feel about this… It’s still in Beta though, hopefully some of those changes will get tweaked for the better.

Edit: should add this in…

boucing Koutsu Onkai added,
vertical Chemical Aijoo added
Chemical Aijoo goes through projectiles

YES! :woot:

When are they gonna release a NEW GG? The last GG I saw that looked like a new game was XX. Now they seem to be pulling a pre-ssf2t Capcom. EVERYBODY bitched about that. People don’t seem to understand it happening again. You’ll get about 7 versions of the same game before an actual sequel.

“Guilty Gear XX #Reload Slash”? :lol:

please don’t let this become like SF2 :lol:

I think it’s already a little too late for that…

Eh, who knows, maybe they’re working on the sequel and making this game to tide us over :-/. Doubtful, but possible.

Does no one remember how many versions of GGX they put out?

This is par for the course, IMO.

You people are a bunch of wahbulances. WAHBULANCES I SAY!

EVEN SEERD. Even though he did nothing wrong.

Arcade
Console (pc included)
GGX+
GGX1.5

Hehe, yeah.
Not to mention it started way before this new version of #Reload.

Robo-Ky 2 was the first shoto clone :lol:

here’s to hoping that this is a rumor.

if this game does come out with those changes, you can expect to still see most competitive guilty gear players playing #R.

At first I thought these updates would really screw Robo over but the more I think about it, they actually do make sense.

The one block per mat might be a good thing if you get more meter from the command grab, notice how it says there is a damage fixation. HOPEFULLY! Otherwise then yes updates suck lol.

2HS is good though because Robo will now have better antiair.

Now im not sure and i could be wrong, but the translation for it might directly translate to Enhance, however it might mean that the j.k was enhanced to be better balanced? doesnt nessacarily mean its better than it already was, but i could be wrong, just my thoughts on that, and i have not read the whole thread if something similar was already stated.

I think you guys are insane. Upgrades are gods gift to fighting games IMO, why would you turn it down?

Upgrading SF produced HF, arguably one of the best versions of the game, SSF2 upgraded produced ST, which is still played today. Now compare those to the games that were just remade as a new version, MvC2,CvS2,A3,3s… all games that are good in their own way, but still have that “I wish they would have fixed some stuff” problem. Why would you even want more GG Games right now after there’s been so much time invested in making ONE good game?

People bitch about everything, i guess they have nothing better to do, but i don’t see how someone can say ‘damn i wish we still had WW over HF, wtf were they thinking’. I personally still don’t like Johnny’s throw scaling and it killed the char for me but whatever its a decent tradeoff for some of the other stuff in XX V1 so i will live with it. At least I have hope that eventually they’ll see their mistake and go back and fix it, if it were capcom I would have no chance of that.

About sol, if i’m wrong correct me, but I think it’s wrong on several levels. Firstly no combo should be about repeating a couple moves over and over unless there’s some great reason, secondly chars with avg/above avg mobility shouldn’t do as much damage as the big slow characters from the same setup (a single move or throw), if you wanna give sol some crazy resets or something unique I can see that, but not garunteed damage from a single move.

I don’t really care if in some hindsight way it’s justified or if it’s something we can get around, if it’s bad, it’s bad and should be fixed. If it makes sol the worst char in the game, then they need to find something else to fix about him, not just throw some damage around.

are there any pictures? or did i miss them somehow?

I’d love Sol to be bottom tier. Then people can’t whine when I win.

yea i agree, cause i know ill still win with sol and if i cant, theres always that possibility that theres a new sol, the silouette character? can anyone confirm what rezo said?

holy order sol? this just lost all credibility.

cant they just get off their asses and make GGXXX with Aba, Raven, and some other new characters?

Something occured to me while reading these changes. If FD-throw is referring to option select, that would mean that input leniencey for FD has been removed (ie. you must press both buttons on the exact frame or you get a move). That being the case, it would follow that all FDCs (aside from FDC jumps) may have been removed.

It’s been proven by numerous top player’s blogs that this beta-test is infact real. You people act like you know it all about what Daisuke wants to do with the Guilty Gear franchise, and that “OMFG It’s impossible that they do something new and different!!!~11`1”

And there’s a picture that shows the beta-test poster in GCC’s thread of the same subject. :tup:
