Dear Anyone:

If I played Robo-Ky in AC+ R Extend Arcade Edition, is there anyone who will remotely recapture the joy I felt?

Ky just isn't the same.

As a fellow Robo-Ky main, I don't think there will ever be a good replacement for him. :(

Robo-Ky has a fighting game successor, Wario in Smash Bros Brawl.

I want to play through the Guilty Gear story :feelsgood:

Continuity wise does it go GG > GGX > GGX2 > GGX2AC+#R'@FRJAHSK > Xrd > GG2 or are there more? I know the dedicated story modes first started with X2, but I lost sense of the progression not long after.

Mostly right, just Xrd is a sequel to GG2.

Oh right duh, but am I right in thinking that there are only two real story modes outside of GG2.

Basically.

The other games just have random arcade modes, Xrd and GG2 are the only ones with extended story modes.

Well I meant there's one in the console version of X2 and then there's a sequel to that one in Accent Core?

Also I would suggest almost totally ignoring tiers in this game from the looks of it. Just picka character you like and learn your matchup.

Or play everyone since they're all fun.

Yeah, more games need robots that shoot steam and lightning at people. In GGXX#Reload I played a lot of Robo-Ky and Faust, so at least Faust is still in Xrd?

If this game sells half as well on consoles as the hype suggests the character select screen is gonna look like 2002UM by the time Arcsys is done riding this gravy train.

I actually doub tthis game will have high retention, but I bet the initial sales will be really good. SF4 did pretty alright because it had a huge existing playerbase, and there were enough scrubs online so you didn't feel bad when you played. this community is gonna be a lot smaller and filled with a higher good player to player ratio.

Time for some news.
Some sort of Xrd gamepad

Here's all the framedata for the game: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bLI6KFcuPKRMJydrWQSRS8OYJom-qq4XxJtyQp2YH7I/edit#gid=0

The latest Arcadia scan: http://www.mediafire.com/view/x2hb1a5j979os45/034-035.png
Xrd's going to have similar 64 player 'arcade' lobbies as BB. Which kind of sucks, but whatever, all the other online features look pretty great.
Oh and they confirmed the game will have DLC announcer packs just like BB.


Also have some FAB for fun: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0INxOArkC24

I hope Xrd doesn't become a niche thing like Uniel.

I also can't wait to at least see some hi-def videos of all the IK's and other cinematic. Should keep me going until buying a new console.

Pote Buster only throw invulnerable during startup? Didn't it used to be fully invul for two frames and throw invincible for whole duration, including recovery?

it was only throw invuln for the active frame iirc (and 1 frame before/after)

zato's command throw was completely throw invulnerable so it actually beat pot buster like 100% of the time

This is what it used to be:

Fully invincible 3~5F
Throw invincible 1~16F

So not throw invuln the whole time, but for most of it.

Munsun posted:

It's missing some things here and there. Stuff life 'upper body invuln' and 'low profile' aren't actual literal mechanics, they're just ways of describing how your hitbox changes when you do a move relative to how your sprite appears. Low Profile is sometimes assumed regarding things like Axl's 2K because his sprite matches his hitbox, unlike stuff like say, Grand Viper where Sol's hitbox is a literal pixel vertically, or 6P where your hitbox only comes up to the knees on your sprite.

That's too many words to just say that yeah, Axl's 2K is still pretty low to the ground don't worry.

I gotcha. I didn't realize it was more slang than actual mechanic. I saw Sol's 2D had it and Axl's 2K didn't and I just could not handle this video game stress.
