That sounds nice and crazy on paper, but you can’t combo into it

hahaha . If people do want to use this I suggest it be done when BOTH of your characters health is low.
THAT IS ALL
So much potential for online coop griefing.
This might be a high risk/high reward mechanic that works.
Yesssss, good. The way it should be to stop it from being a stoopid CUMMMBACKK MEKISISMSm. But…Why ever use it now? Might as well spend time on something else else its just there to distract and confuse. Unless you think you have some GDLK mixup you can do in 7 seconds
There’s gonna be a gem that increases your Pandora timer.
Capcom PR saying “you don’t get to combo directly into it” means nothing. If it’s a worthwhile endeavour, someone will find a way within weeks of release.
EDIT: Yeah I’m too slow, lol.
Apparently you can’t combo into Pandora-
Also look at the damage Zangief took, wish we could’ve seen a longer combo cuz atm it looks like against normal health characters it’ll do 50-60% damage max.
Honestly this is what X-factor should have been. Can’t kill me off using the mechanic? You die. Honestly I don’t see this becoming a problem at all in the game. The only thing I can see going wrong is having a projectile super like Ryu or Poison and just spamming that from full screen until the 7 seconds are up. Even then it would be hard to win with it. I think its cool because it isn’t really all that practical but can still help you win if you’re skilled enough to use it. Again X-factor should have been like this.
Wow, the timer is ungodly short and the damage boost ain’t that huge. You probably will only activate this if you’re sure you can kill the guy in one combo.
I want to know if we will be able to counter-pandora and spam specific EX specials to keep people away and run their timer down.
Sounds good to me, =p
like Tekken 6?
He said “can’t combo DIRECTLY into it”, which I assume means you can’t cancel into it. I assure you, unless it’s hard-coded not to be able to be activated during hitstun, we’ll find a way to combo into it.
Will Pandora boost the chip damage that specials and supers do?
I watched those videos on games services and now I think Pandora mode is nothing scary. It’s not that powerful, and it will be, like someone mentioned before, curiosity for casual, and almost useless in serious matches. I’m worried more about gem system now.
Agree with this.
Gem system though people are thinking is some sort of customization, special items boost thing as seen in Tekken, SFA3 and SC4. If thats the case that stuff will not be used in tournaments for sure, and probably even be banned in ranked match/probably can be banned in online matches.
My expectation for this game went from a 9 to a 6 out of 10. Besides, the game is still in pre-development, and I doubt that this comeback factor will stay as it is now.
As it is now? It’s borderline useless right now. We might see it once out of every 100 matches (Scrubs not included…)
Looks like it, since the trailer had Pandora vs. Pandora.
Dark Guile crushing scrubs’ Pandora dreams on Day One.
well I suggest you guys stop saying it’s useless before someone from Capcom sees this thread and says most of the community think it’s useless, we need it to make it last 20 seconds
