Official Battle Fantasia thread - OUT NOW on XB360

Hey link123a I just sent a friend request out so hopefully we can get some matches in tonight. I should be on sometime between 7:PM EST and 1:AM. To anyone else reading this, if you are at all interested in playing Battle Fantasia online, please send me a friend request along with a message saying that you are adding me to play some Battle Fantasia! Even if I’m playing another game just me an invite, I will just about always play Battle Fantasia.

cool man, imma add you soon, i just got the game and im really liking the mechanics. Freed is deffinatley one of my favorites :slight_smile:

Xurkey add me!

I have the game, haven’t touched it in a while because not enough people play it sadly and the few who do don’t have a decent connection. First time this thread has been up so if anyone wants to teach me some things at this game that lives in the upper east coast area, hit me up.

Just got the game.
Add me if you guys want a punching bag. :lol:
I know nothing about the game yet heh.

(I’m North East Coast too btw)

Isn’t this a childrens game? Maybe thats y nobody plays online lol jk

I’m adding you two right now after I post this. Pancho, nice avatar by the way is “Tat Guy” still making them? You are in luck as I’m in the North East Coast as well (New Hampshire and I travel weekly to Maine) so our connection should be pretty solid. I don’t know much about the game since, well, I haven’t played too many people but I can show you stuff I do know! I should be on tonight sometime around 9ish EST I’ll look for you online then.

Giiyom I’ll hopefully see you on tonight too, Battle Fantasia is a ton of fun and I wished more people would give it a chance!

I play so if anyone plays on PS3 add meh! I wanna get back into this game!

Everyone add me too! online is DEAD for this shit…

I played about 40 matches with Giiyom last night and it was a blast. Just about no lag at all (68-70 ping) and just finally being able to play someone real was great. Nice Urs also, up and coming Battle Fantasia player eh? Looking forward to some rematches real soon, hopefully tonight.

To Giiyom and everyone else reading this: I should be on tonight around 8PM EST - 1AM and I’m def lookin’ forward to playing some people in Battle Fantasia so add me explaning that you are looking to play me in Battle Fantasia and lets have fun.

KimuraLOX I added you to my friends list by the way! Excited to play someone new again and you’re in Boston (I’m in Southern New Hampshire at the moment), we ain’t going to have much or any lag at all!

Let’s all do our part to try and get some sort of crowd into this game I know it can happen. Invite your friends over, have them test out the game and see what they like. Especially for your Street Fighter IV friends as this game reminds me a lot of the “Street Fighter Style” but with a little Guilty Gear from Arcsys thrown in. Talking with Giiyom last night, we both agree there are some really good thing this game has going for it such as diverse characters, and a simple but excellent fighting system. I personally love the Gachi drive, even though I am far from mastering it. I hope Aksys pushes the game for a sequel, theres a lot of things going for this game. If they released a sequel in the coming year, with BlazBlue around the corner which means many new people will be playing a Arcsys game for the first time, having another Battle Fantasia released by Aksys game will catch peoples attention. Know what I’m saying guys?

Ugh Arcsys do it!

hrmm i ain’t played BF in a while (too busy with prototype) but maybe i’ll add you local new england guys to my list

weather the past few days has been awfully dreary. :confused:

No.
Aksys= A local publisher of video games in NA.
Arc System Works= A japanese company that makes video games.
And why would ArcSys release a sequel to a game that failed hard?

They did the smart thing and just took the gachi system and gave it to a character in BB (Guess who…)

I’ll be on at 10:30. I didn’t play you, cause I noticed you were playing with Giiyom and I started watching the Office.

Same here!

Would love to actualy play against another human being :bgrin:.

(not sure what our connection would be like since I’m in England though)

Edit:Forgot to mention but I’ve only got Battle Fantasia on PS3, sorry if anyone’s added my xbl for some matchs.

Yeah GGs Xurkey. We had some good fights. :tup:
Wasn’t bad at all for my 1st time playing. Urs is definitely my main so far. :razzy:

Apart from the visual aspect (wich I don’t really care, but maybe some do) the game is actually surprisingly really good. It’s a mix-up between Guilty Gear and SF. But more like SF then GG.
Simple and a hell of a lot of fun.

I’ll make an IRC channel (#battlefantasia) on EFnet if you guys are looking for some fights.
Cya around.

Sent some invites. I’m usually on Live after work (10PM) if anyone’s up for some matches. I main Marco, Olivia, and Face.

Hey guys I’m going to be on playing around 9:PM EST - 1:AM est playing HDR, BF, and FFS so send me an invite or a friend request if you want to play some Battle Fantasia or something, but more Battle Fantasia I don’t play it enough.

Just got this game and I have to say it’s very fun, speed and style fit exactly what I like in a game. However I am having a hard as hell time finding guides for this game, just something that goes a little bit into the characters, subsystems, etc. Hell I kept hearing about there being a parry system in the game but never found out what it was until I just got messing around. I didn’t get a manual with my copy (bought it used) and when I say Olivia blow out a heart and then knock shit back I was quite surprised.

also what is the best button config for this game? There are about 10 things listed in the configuration screen but I only have 6 buttons on my stick. Currently I have it:
A-C-Parry
B-D-Taunt

The closest place to find that kind of info is at http://battlefantasia.omgforum.net/. And even then, I couldn’t find info myself. I would PM someone. There are people out there that play. I bought the game and returned it because I was too lazy to look. Its hella fun though. I’d buy it again. LOL

Bought it for $20 and it’s been something I’m very happy with so far. I found a thread here that gets a bit deep into the game so that helps.

Hello Sazae,

Looks like you just bought the game and I’m always looking for more people to play the game with. If you would like to play someone, feel free to add my Xbox Gamertag (just explain your an SRK member) to your friends list and we will get some games on.

Oh, and anyone else reading this you too can also add my Gamertag to your friends list to get some Battle Fantasia matches going!

Battle Fantasia is as underrated as they come, all they really need to fix is the forgettable music and to improve the netcode. Otherwise, it’s a damn solid fighter with a lot of potential, hopefully a sequel is in the works.
