The New Fist of the Star/Hokuto no Ken thread

One step ahead of you man. I’ve pre-ordered it long ago AND chose the fastest shipping method. If NCSX doesn’t pull another “limited first batch” stunt like they did with garou battle archives 2, I should have it before you have enough time to finish your download :bgrin: (yes, I’m optimistic enough to assume the game iso will take a few days to surface!)

But the sticks will still suck when you play us at AI and try to show off your new stuff :razzy:

I can scrubbily do Raoh’s Air Combo into Sai stab BS now. I must learn his infinite.

Man, I never could connect the 2A after an air sai. This is one of the major reasons why I can’t wait for the home version. I want to get the timing right.

By the way man, I’m on spring break next week. Let me know if you’ll show up at AI so we can have some HnK matches.

I mostly do Jump CX2 or 3 after the launcher than D into the Sai. I do the lame easy version.

I go on Spring Break like…the last week of March I think Soge. :wonder:

Well, whether you do the easy version or the hard one, connecting the 2A is the heart of the combo. That’s why I quit Raoh for now.

And usually I can’t make Mondays because of evening classes (and I seem to recall Xen saying that you guys show up on Mondays sometimes), so I thought I’d let you know about next week just in case.

I just updated my Hokuto no Ken match video lists on Youtube:

Enjoy.

Oh yeah… I can’t wait.

I am pretty sure the ISO will be available ASAP. (that is me being optimistic) :wink: :smiley:

Once I connected three Spike Sai in a row during a combo, but the timing still has to be just right!

Yeah, the moment the game comes out, I’ll be on Spring Break mastering combos :bgrin:

Speaking of Raoh, Tian do you know how Japanese players change direction of motion during Raoh’s jumping attacks? After a debounce launch I’ve seen them do something like j.A j.D … but they start to move backwards after the j.A. If you jump back you just go way too far away, so they must be changing direction mid air. Are they maybe doing 8, 7A D? It’s not really a huge thing but it helps combos out a bit when you are too close to the corner.

I think if I knew how to do that I could do his other goofy launcher combo better. Normally it looks like this:

2D 6E AC > j.C 236CE |> C AC > j.A C A B 214D

Problem is that on most characters you are too close with the j.C for the 236C to hit properly, so maybe being able to move back slightly would help.

Something to play with when the console version hits anyway.

Awesome, thanks tianyuan. :slight_smile:

Which one are you talking about? Wait, watch this vid:
[media=youtube]eDosT9-sbYw[/media]
Read the comments below the vid, Pharaon gave out some tips about dealing with the corner combos. I think that answers your problem as well.

heh, I am not familiar with Raoh, if you understand japanese, these two links pretty much gives everything you need to know about Raoh:
http://jbbs.livedoor.jp/bbs/read.cgi/game/26689/1166927722/

It seems like Raoh only need one straight forward combo for the win:sweat: :

Seriously watch Pharaon and Mamuuut’s Vids:


You will be inspired perhaps come up with something cool.

That’s the spirit…If you believe…you can do it. Once I did that and I did the link twice in one combo.

Voice Actresses/Actors in Yuria Den was the worst =\

Esp. the Shin vs Ken fight, Yuria had like…no enthusiasm whatsoever.

“Stop.” “Wait.” “OK.” “I’ll love you.” “There, happy?”

THE WORST

Man, tell me about it! I already hated Kenshiro and Raoh’s voices in Raoh Den, but Yuria’s performance here was like the icing on the cake :tdown:

Everybody in Raoh Gaiden was okay except Toki and Raoh.

No, Kenshiro sucked big time. I already hated Kenshiro’s voice from the game, but even that was much better than the one used in Raoh Den. I have no idea why those idiots couldn’t just go with THE Kenshiro guy (Kamiya Akira). Pisses me off :annoy:

^ I think Kenshiro’s OG VA is dead or something…same with Rei. Since EVERYBODY in the HnK game was the OG cast. :confused:

No, Kenshiro’s original VA is still alive and kicking. And no, not everyone in the game was voiced by their original anime counterparts. Kenshiro for one was voiced by a different guy.

I desperately need the instrumental HnK opening (aka Fatal KO theme). Anybody know the name/where to get it?

I never played the game but

http://gh.ffshrine.org/soundtracks/5377

http://gh.ffshrine.org/soundtracks/5378

http://gh.ffshrine.org/soundtracks/5379

Those are 3 HNK game soundtracks. It doesnt really sau wich, but one of them might be the one you’re looking for.

The track titles are a bit fucked up due to translation troubles I think. You could download the first 3 tracks of each and check
