This I can understand. what has namco been doing all this time? was it really that great of a task to put tekken 6 on consoles? was the story mode really such a big deal that they had to spend years on it? I can’t understand how alot of basic stuff got left out of the game, and needs to be patched. I would go as far to say it’s unacceptable. and 2p not getting custom constumes better be patched on release day. That’s just madness.
Unfortunately the success of Tekken 6 more greatly relies on how strong the story is than whether or not small competitive training options and costumes are in the game. Especially in America where everyone wants to play a game that’s essentially a movie they press buttons in. No one wants to put work into their games anymore.
Is it possible the Post Update isn’t out yet since it’s not release day?
Kind of like how Blazblue netcode was for people. People playing it online before release date were saying there was lag, then Aksys released the Netcode patch on launch day and it ran smooth as butter.
I wouldn’t rule that out at all, but we can only hope at this point. and like I said it could have been my connection (though I normally have a decent one)
either way, it’s worth the money if you’re a fan of fighting games, I don’t even need to mention Tekken fans cuz I know they will get it regardless, but as a fighting game it is solid, pretty balanced and really fun
yeah I played a lot of red bars, but oh well. I did play green bars and while they were better still had some input lag. so like I said could be the netcode, could be my connection…shoot it could be that your connection is amazing, haha.
I do not know if story is a big deal but it definitely help. Look at BB. Wouldn’t hurt a fighting game to have a good story. I personally only care about the fighting. But the story can attract some people.
Damn it sounds like the net play isn’t shaping up to be all that good, theres alot of mixed impressions, fingers crossed that they improve it in the future but I think I’ll be holding off my purchase until then (I wish my city had an arcade :<).
I think I’m going to be playing GGPO for life at this rate, fighting game devs (Capcom/Namco/SNK anyway…) need to step up with their netcode.
