I guess you guys are not ready too “X the line”… /sarcasm
i think…this game has trolled its self out of tournament play all together…in fact…i think at this point…people hate this shit…
im still hyped but by god did they dropped the ball…
Don’t give up hope. Not just yet.
LOL, I laughed of it /\
Ima gona tell you, that Gem thing got/get me worry, but I gona wait for more details before make some judgement… All I want for now are the special cancelable chains back and my Alisa Boskonovitch to not be deconfirmed D:
eh we’re six or so months til release they can add a no gem option eventually I say
While I agree with your disdain for Capcom using other characters as teaser distractions is stupid, you don’t have to be ignorant about it.
Poison’s one of Capcom’s most talked about and popular characters who’s been nearly playable since SF4 and has been demanded long since. Of course she got in over a relatively new Tekken character that people generally don’t give a shit about.
But hey, I think it’s hilarious that Poison’s haters get so mad and boo-hoo about her “getting in the game over <insert someone totally unrelated to her, here>” sometimes; this being one of them.
So yeah, I’m sorry if your fav character doesn’t get it.
But for shitting on Poison for no reason, you get a Lindsay-Meth-Mouth.
Oh so, like, Poison is a good character now or something?
Super Gem Fighter x Tekken?
Eventually we’ll see people complaining Poison got in over Ingrid, who happens to be that person’s favourite character.
She wasnt a bad character >_>'
I’ve put alot of time into the character when i got the chance to play her…she seem decent enough to be competitive with…and not some joke character…
but like most Tekken characters, shes unexplored…so its still up in the air… but Jenet had a point…there was no reason for you to shit on the character to get your point across…
NYCC is over 4 days, obviously Capcom want to spread the reveals over 3 days (leaving the first day for UMVC3). No way gamespot or ign would’ve paid for the exclusive reveal of the mechanics trailer, if any of those sites payed for exclusivity it would be for the new characters trailer which we’ll see over the next 2 days.
Man this reaction was so fucking obvious, predicted this shit on page 2. Gems are optional, already got banned from Evo and people ignore blind launchers crushing low attacks and level 2 charge dash cancels providing counterhit on next attack… actual gameplay elements that matter fucking amazing lol.
They both got some mentions in a few threads. Some people were confused/against it, some liked it.
Well after I reviewed the trailer once again…
looks like overall damage output GOT toned down
Alpha counter/cross cancel w/e it’s called does as mush damage a strong attack not bad that balances it out it just a GTFO me move.
I hope counter hit in general staggers the opponent not sure about that lvl2 charge dash cancel
Super arts does less damage now i say about 30% to 35% if done RAW
Cross super also got toned down in the trailer Isay 40 to 45%, guile has about half life than he has about 10% left after the cross assault is done
Cross Assault is a little shorter than pandora’s time
Pandora is still the same but does a shitttt load of chip, Guess capcom doesn’t want to increase the time because it will be broken
Launcher being completely invulnerable to low attack doesn’t hurt the game, remember everything chains. So there shouldn’t be any whole in your block strings unless your going for set ups. If that’s the case don’t go low or bait the opponent and get a free 50% combo.
Gems Not sure still needs to be explored, DP’s doing 120 and with he increase does 200 big deal it doesn’t last long
I might be 500% wrong but when capcom was demonstrating the gems it was mirror matches(might work for that only)

Well, can only speak for myself, but…my current hype level for the game is currently fluctuating between highly cautious optimism and highly optimistic caution.
It just seems…like a wild mess. And I want to take it and explore it and sort it.
Another commenter on another site took issue that the game wasn’t shaping up enough like Street Fighter. And I’m thinking “…Well, duh, it’s Street Fighter X Tekken.” And I got to thinking…the last time there was this big a jump,a as far as Capcom’s core fighters go, from what might be considered “standard” for a fighter was the deviation into the Marvel Vs. series. Though taking some queues from Darkstalkers, at one point, things like two-story-tall super jumps and dynamic tags and launchers into air combos were radical. I distinctly remember the cries of “Ruined!” when MvC2 came out with its 3 person teams and 4 attack button set-ups and infinite, selectable assists.
I mean, like Marvel, we’re looking at half of the cast of the game that has never been in this style of fighter before, a dynamic tag system that takes queues from Tekken Tag, meshed in with an attempt crazy stat altering power-up system and an attempt at a highest-of-stakes gambit Tron comeback mechanic and Cross Assault, and intricacies like launchers crushing low attacks and dash canceling the chargeable moves and block stun canceling counterattacks and tag cancels and having to link specials from normals for combos outside of the universal chain set-up and the managing of health and meter…
It’s struck a nerve that wants to dive into the madness. Like Ono’s handing me a kitchen sink and it’s filled with Blanka dolls and there’s a big shiny gem at the bottom and he’s telling me to go bludgeon someone with it.
/endrant
as long as gems are banned then im hype for this game…i just want to act like they dont exist
If this ends up being true, then as silly as it seems, my interest in this game dropped through the floor. Not to mention the whole Gem fiasco. I guess we’ll see how this all pans out. All in due time.
Teasing the fanbase with obvious hints at characters then deconfirming them is a low blow to the players. They are more so lies than teasers at this point.
You know they might be red herrings right now but it doesn’t mean they can’t reveal them later on. But even if they do that a lot of the red herrings won’t get in the game anyway.
I thought the launcher being able to low crush was known for awhile now. Although the Tekken Ki charge is interesting to note though. :razzy:
I saw the Special Edition and I hyped all over myself. I know alot of y’all are unhappy, or mad, or even pissed, but…
c’mon, man. Street Fighter guys are fighting Tekken guys.
:D*
