Hows the online lay in the xbox version?
Not true at all. He’s not as strong as before but he isn’t (that)weak either. He needs some buffs but he’s not that bad.
I can’t answer you about that but the PC version’s online seems to be doing good.
You’d think if someone made a “What’s the best Guilty Gear version?” thread that they’d include all the versions of Guilty Gear on the list.
Yeah from what I understand most people play on the PC for online play. Real shame that Accent Core didn’t have online despite being released on two platforms.
Which version is played online on PC?
#Reload.
Slash is the best.
I pretty much dropped Slayer ever since the bite loop is removed in the later versions…
Wins thread
If you have to pick one AC is the one. Although if you have XBL they have Reload on there for like 15 bucks, dont know if it has online play though.
AC, I liked Slash but I actually felt bad playing Ky in it.
#Reload was good times tho, I actually kinda miss it.
Terrible, don’t bother.
By “botched” do you mean that jam got worse? Cause she is pretty beastly. Wall stick loops and puff balls are crazy. She has way higher damage combos now. How is that worse?
in #R all im going to say is Eddie was so broke its not even funny.
And there is NO online play in the xbox #R IDK why they wouldn’t include it but they didn’t.
and comments about some of the last posts, you got hit by only 5 hits by a slayer cause im not that great compared to some ppl I know I don’t play a ton but, I see slayers do over 10 hit combos all the time (aka 50-70% of your life bar).
And Jam is awesome she has a heavy slash loop that she can follow up with a wallslam combo, and her mixup game is still pretty ridiculous.
and ogawa eddie wasn’t as good in AC cause Eddie got nerfed from top tier(and broke like all hell), down to top tier(and merely quite broke).
I find it funny that people will admit that slash is the most balanced, yet the most boring. If it wasn’t for ky, slash would probably be the best version.
But yea, GGAC is the latest, where one hit by several characters = death lol.
I don’t see how slash is most balanced. The difference between slash robo, and slash ky is way bigger than the difference in AC Johnny and AC Eddie.
I completely agree with this. AC is mostly about doing combos where slash you had to out think your opponent, which is why ac (to me) is the worse version of guilty gear since guilty gear 1.
Note the quotes around outplay CB, if anything you’ve got to out think and outplay your opponent even more in AC lest you eat combo. Even then, unless you’re playing say Chipp vs. Pot/Slayer/Jam there’s the ability to make a comeback after eating several. In Slash single hits and pokes were much stronger which lead to loony shit like Sol/Ky raep off of simple things. Things seem the way they are because of the main way to do damage. There was some crazy combo shit in Slash as well; Sol’s B&B, Anji guard cranking, and Mist Finer wallbounces say hi.
I also agree with BBQ Sauce; Slash Robo-Ky/Order Sol vs. Slash Ky/Sol = arpe for the doppelgangers. AC Eddie vs. AC Bridget = merely an uphill battle. Just because of that, Slash can’t really claim to be the most balanced; Ky owned all and two of the three new characters sucked utterly.
That being said, n my mind, Slash is like Guilty Gear 2 Turbo or 3rd Strike whereas AC is like Guilty Gear: dat 1v1 Mahvel. Both are perfectly good games, it’s different strokes for different folks.
Was Slash a hard to find game? I looked on Ebay and Amazon and couldn’t find jack diddly on it…
Even though I made my decesion on getting AC, just checking to see how much it is…I might get it later on.
Slash never came out in the US.
Ahhh, now that makes sense. Thanks! :wgrin:
Agreed. Big damage from (mostly) all characters = less mistakes you can afford to make = out thinking and outplaying.
Also, I disagree that 1 combo = round, even with Chipp/Millia/Bacon it stillt akes 2-3 combos unless its like CH DoT or your gb is cranked.
Or you fight against Eddie and eat gold burst with any character in the game.
Accent Core is a stupid game that can be fun for a bit, but there’s not really any substance. I like it for what it is (high damage, 80% execution, 10% mindgames, 10% luck) and it’s been my main game since nobody plays Slash or #R in tournaments anymore, but there isn’t a lasting appeal. Game is super mechanical, don’t know why people are saying more damage = more mindgames when most matches aren’t decided by who’s smarter but by who happened to push their button a frame too early or too late.
If you’re playing at a level where people drop combos or are doing day 2 B&Bs for like 30-40% damage all the time, then I guess the appeal can last longer since it seems like there’s more ways to go into whatever lame day 2 B&B you’re doing, but once you get into it, the game tends to boil down to “spam your invincible safe launcher to fish for a CH and instantly win if you land it.”
I honestly don’t think the game is as balanced as people make it sound. If anything, it’s way worse than anything since #R imo. Just nobody has the mental strength or luck or whatever to post consistent, dominant results.
