I thought you still could chain and then cancel into specials? Like this, right? http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=A9N5JJdFgHg
Or maybe I misunderstood your post.
Cross Rush is strictly :lp::mp::hp::hp:. You can’t special cancel out of Cross Rush.
Wait, I thought it was said that stuff would be character specific.
Well, I could be wrong, but they constantly show Cross Rush to be that in trailers.
They said that some characters are able to cancel chains into specials and some can’t. Honestly, I don’t think this is a bad thing if they do it right. I mean who expects Zangief/Hugo to do a 30% combo without a super? I sure as hell don’t.
Alright, that clears some things up for me. Also explains why when I did L M H to Raida, I’d just go straight into Cross Rush. Not sure why Ibuki can’t do specials out of that chain considering she could do it in the past games.
EDIT: NVM, I believe it’s this one?
I was thinking… since the developers are saying that the Gem system was implemented as a core part of the gameplay, all the weird damage inputs might end up being final. Like the un-gemmed version of the character might be intentionally unbalanced in order to force you to use Gems to fix their short comings, rending a more pure FG experience (a no gem game) under balanced.
Oh crap.
I doubt the weird damage settings are an indication of the gem system’s role. From that trailer, it doesn’t look like the gems last super long or anything like that.
We’ll have to wait and see though.
I believe they said that each gem lasts 20 seconds once activated.
That is correct. Seth said that only some characters can do that. Like chun-li for example
She can do LPMPHP into a special.
Please tell me that’s a edit, for the love of god please.
This makes me quite happy since I do plan to main Chun once again.
They actually put all the females i wanted in the game so idk who to choose. I can continue with Chun and get revenge or use someone new like Poison, i just don’t know and if they put karin,sakura and asuka i’d just explode …
Anyways chun-li will be dangerous.
A single picture isn’t much to go off of. There were probably spoken words that extrapolated exactly what they meant which weren’t half as bad as what the image makes out.
whats the deal with links and chains in this game?
Worst news I could read.
I liked the Gem System as an addition to the game, not as a “fundamental part in the game”
In a nutshell… everyone can chain into something.
Not everyone can do a chain combo into a special attack.
Links still exist.
