Soul Calibur 5 Official Discussion

One doesn’t cost meter and if you time it too early, you can just hold for regular guard with the same stand block crouch block rule?
The other cost one meter with the ability to be vulnerable if you mistime it but guards high med and low (assuming since it is just one input)?

you are artilust, then?

I’m highly upset that they want to dumb ivy down. And I want to make that heard.

Is 8 way run the best place for that?

I use to frequent that place and the sc2 boards but the crying and jerk off circles was outrageous, the the SC community is a older ver on the smash community I so wish/hope srk will adopt the socal series.

It’s to avoid overlap with CE.

JG is basically IB from Blazblue

Best place to complain about Ivy is Daishi’s twitter, though he’s made up his mind on that, so it’s probably pointless. He listens to the community, but he isn’t afraid to make his own mind- which is good.

Especially with people like yoshicookie spamming him 24/7 with “MAKE IT LIKE SC2”

I am not upset, Coil Stance had no reason for existing and I am glad it’s out. If I remember correctly they want to make her closer to her SC2 version.

If that is their intention, then good stuff. SC2 Ivy remains my favorite iteration of Ivy.

SC2 Ivy is almost everyones favorite. Practical stances, good mixup, all around excellent chracter. SC3 gave her a lot of fluff, lots of attacks that were bad on frames and had no real purpose. Then again in SC4 the same thing, and non-sword stances ended up being very weak with her best lows and punishers being in sword stance.

Now theyre just scrapping it all and giving her a mixture of her moves all combined into two stances. Whatever.

Your threads gonna get locked. lol.

Anyways I’ll still look out for SC5, regardless if I frequent the 8wayrun boards or not, SRK has been pretty supportive of the non-SF fighting game community the last 2 or 3 years so I’m sure they’ll get people on board a la the Mortal Kombat tidal wave that happened over the spring.

TA-DA!!

What will it take for Soul Calibur to escape the shadow of being a “scrub fighter”?

Oops.

No, you said they were stupid + admitted that you read absolutely no hard info on them. After people called you stupid for talking out of your ass + ignoring arguments you fell back on LOL U GOT TROLLED and gave yourself a figurative handjob assuming people were riled up over it.

With the game being incomplete and subject to change you have an extremely hard time getting me, let alone anyone else to read some topic about just guard when Namco hasnt even told people exactly how the mechanic works. Theres nothing but speculation going on at 8wayrun and I dont wanna read that crap.

So yeah…I said as it stands its a questionable mechanic when you already have guard impact. When Team Soul decides to elaborate on the meat of this game instead of flashing a bunch of CGI intros of newly announced characters you can expect me to alter my opinion accordingly. Until then, I think its dumb and thats my opinion so you’ll have to deal with my “trolling.”

Before I can even make a complete statement you queens start that “oh nos he’s trolling” bullshit because you dont know how to take someone that is going to voice their opinion and not resort to epic meltdowns. The SC community is so fucking embarrassing. All people did last night was spew insults in a wall of text. Even the fucking administrator lol what the fuck. Mr Wizard would never do some tacky shit like that in a SRK iirc chat. Whats the average age of the Soul Calibur community…fucking 16?

At this point its not even worth the fight. SRK is much better forum to discuss fighters anyways, seeing as there are topics over there on how they can improve their 1-player modes and console exclusive characters you want to see (lol). This is nothing short of the time I made a topic about critical finish completely destroying the metagame of defense by having a guard crush meter and I got flamed then too…but oh wait…look… the developers of Soul Calibur 5 said they heard complaints about critical finish being an easy round victory and they got rid of it.

I dont claim to know everything and when I’m wrong I’m wrong, but blowing a gasket the minute someone doesnt eat the shit you try to feed them is getting old. Soul Calibur has fucked up not once but TWICE in a row, so excuse me for not having a blind faith in a game thats not complete. You’re all miserable fanboy cunts as far as I’m concerned.

Aris will probably want to know if you get CH effect if you get hit during movement.

I can’t believe they would even think about keeping Tira’s random stance changes and life loss properties. That is the some of the most unfun, bullshit ass gameplay I have ever heard of.

Tira was supposed to be 3D version of ABA but you can’t trust the SC team to handle Guilty Gearish features.

You cant trust the SC team to do much of anything, and the horrifying part is the community mindlessly supports just about everything they do because its so surprising that Soul Calibur seems to be able to continue to flourish. Its like people are happy the game is even announced, never-mind being critical. The game wasnt even playable to the public at gamescon, but the same build of the game will be playable on the 22nd of this month to a select few gamers. lol.

Its like a miracle each time a Soul Calibur is announced since the one before it surely could have been the last one made.

GJ on making baseless assumptions again: http://8wayrun.com/threads/just-guard-concerns-discussion.7820/

As long as you’re doing it why don’t I: You call an entire site a bunch of blind miserable cunts without bothering to actually read shit or pay attention, and you’re carrying a stupid old grudge over a thread of your causing a small flame war and being locked. Anybody who bothered to discuss it logically with you was ignored or OSd with “THE GAME ISN’T OUT YET SO EVERYTHING CAN CHANGE.” Apparently playing devil’s advocate for mechanics that aren’t solidified yet makes you a miserable fanboy cunt lol.

You don’t have to pour through the site to have a thorough understanding of everything and have a say, but if you don’t want to make yourself out to be an ass you should at least ATTEMPT to look into things on your own. What you did was like saying UMvC3 x factor is even more broken because you can do it in the air without knowing that the bonuses on it have been nerfed pretty much across the board.

I already explained why I wont show support of mechanics in a game thats 40% complete. I’m being baseless but there hasn’t been a playable build of the game made public yet. You’re reeeeally attempting to make me seem ridiculous.

So what now?

The first thing they need to do is to reverse this trend. Secondly they need to put in more effort in playtesting and designing their games, but at the moment it looks like we are going to see another rush job.

Soul Cal got many problems, but breast size ain’t one of them.

SC3:AE Ivy was the coolest.

As is Isabella Neo. Fucking beast.
