The TTT2 General Discussion thread

[ThatJollyOlBastid]

Tekken Tag Tournament 2 Unlimited, the current arcade edition available in Japan and some Asian nations, has updated to version "H05."
A couple of characters are confirmed to have some move changes including Jun, True Ogre, and Marshall Law. Another aspect of H05 includes changes to the tag and solo systems such as more health for tag players against a solo player and a new throw tag variation.
If you live in Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, or any other country that has TTT2U, the update should be available now. There are no news for if the changes will affect the next patch for the console version. You can check the full patch notes after the jump!

[Yannick]

:eek: Are there that many machines in Europe? I think we have one or two machines in the States and two that I know of in Canada.

[MikeBreezy92]

That’s the stuff that changed in the console I think.

[FlyingWonkey]

Yeah you don’t need to worry about those changes If the only version you have been playing was the console version of TTT2.

The arcade version was actually a little bit outdated and those changes are what they put in from the arcade version to console version. Arcade’s just got them now so yay parity.

[KumaOso]

When are they getting the console characters?

[MAGUS1234]

I do not believe they are? Were they not going to stay “console”?

[Vulcan_Hades]

Found this on Pixiv, thought it was neat

Stop giving Namco ideas for new DLC swap characters. :shake:

After all these years of playing tekken, I felt like I wasn’t challenging myself enough. Just installed a Fanta in my R1TE, literally upped my movement game up by 50%. Throwing out EWGF 2/3 times pretty solid, decided fuck it… man mode time: going to main Dj and Kaz ha.

[Yannick]

:eek: I like it.

[thecapsaicinkid]

I think they patched goofy custom costumes out of Arcade mode, at least for the bosses.

Been having a lot of fun recently… Especially with Miharu, Armor King, Jaycee.
I love how Miharu breaks the fourth wall on her introduction. I seriously can not wait to get my hands on DLC - I even made quite a few friends with other players online who also intend on getting better! Sometime later, I am going to pick up Yoshimitsu and Zafina and learn about their game play. I am still waiting for Michelle… I REALLY want to play Angel as well…

I notice a few things… First of all - when a player is utilizing a item move for projectile purpose or a actual projectile (like Jinpichi’s or Alisa’s for example) - the CPU will LITERALLY stop attacking you and side step as much as possible. No matter what. Regardless of difficulty. However, these tendencies would have already been present in the previous Tekken games if you utilizing a projectile of some sort.
And, here is another funny thing I notice. You know how in some stages you can knock the characters into lower tier of the stage, right? Apparently, even when knock the characters into another tier of the stage DURING the tag assist - the tagged partner will STILL suddenly appear all the way over on the other side.

So how are people faring in the World Arena? I think it is pretty swell in many ways - reinforces the online mode pretty well.

[Yannick]

I am still waiting for Michelle…

:eek: It will be well worth the wait. So good~

World Arena is super good and I’m glad it’s here. Has anyone tried or gotten footage from the Championship Arena yet? Not sure what the qualifications are (if any) to play there.

Hi guys, new to SRK and totally in love with tekken atm- just love the game to bits!

Am playing asuka and alisa as my current team, and its my first time playing a fighting game since i owned a psone, which i played tekken 3 on it. So basically i just bought my ps3 and trying to improve and enjoying the game as much as possible.

And oh, do u guys have any idea on how do they calculate for rank? Like, how many wins do u have to get in order to get higher rankings?

Cheers everyone. =)

[Yannick]

:eek: Not sure on the exact math, but you rank up quicker by winning more games against people closer to your rank.

Winning and losing against people much higher or lower than you have very little, if any, effect on your ranking.

Glad you’re enjoying the game!

[Great_Dark_Hero]

I finally got around to Raven and you know what…? I find him to be a very unorthodox yet strong character. Kind of difficult to play correctly… [FONT=courier new](this is slightly hypocritical, sense I play things like Xiaoyu/Miharu and Hwoarang so often now)[/FONT]. Not entirely easy to play, but if you got the muscle memory and his tricks down in fundamental game play, we’ll definitely be able to do some real damage… the same can easily be said for the rest of the cast. I really want to get Zafina down but I have only memorized a handful of her moves. I can also play a decent Hwoarang, but he is a knowledge based character… he has a butt load of good TA’s and set ups… but many of his stances are purely situational. Oh well. I still got so much work to do on this game. It’s damn near endless! And, that’s why TTT2 is awesome to me. So many likable characters, moves, set-ups, theories, play styles… very beautiful.

[yomipower]

Raven is low tier still as ever, as in shit. Good luck.

[Bomberman3000]

Ever get that nice feeling, when you go on a losing streaked in Ranked, get de-ranked, but then start winning again and get your previous rank BACK?

Like at square zero again.

[Zane_Hitsurugi]

Anyone got a spare online pass for TTT2 on PS3?

[Yannick]

:eek: Just a heads up for everyone.

I got to play with the new eTokki OMNI stick this weekend.

If you have the chance to play with a K-style bat top, to get this stick, or to get Laugh’s upcoming JLF-style bat top, please do so.

Playing on ball tops doesn’t cut it anymore, suddenly.
