Here is a dope track from FG of the year 2012, Skullgirls.

Its the same music that plays in Peacock's reveal trailer but I think the song itself is a stage BGM.

What is the assist Valentine is doing/trying to do in the matches at the end of the video?

Well, according to Gamespot and IGN, Valentine's Day is March 30th and 31st for console owners.

I feel like neither of those dates are a Tuesday so I suspect that's wrong.

Edit: It's probably just a placeholder date to mean 'sometime during Q1'.

If it was the one with the biohazard symbol that appears, it loads up her needle with a side effect and had a small hit box. Not sure on specifics, but one adds hit stun, I think, and another adds input delays to the opponent's attacks and I don't remember the third effect. Damage over time maybe.

Yup the 3 poisons are
LP- damage over time (think hawkeye poison arrow)
MP- adds 30f(?) hitstun to every attack. You can get some crazy combos with this.
HP- adds 6 frames of input delay.

They all end after a period of time, and they also go away if you hit valentine. HP's duration is shortest, because Mike Z thinks it's the most busted.

The poisons are color-coded but I can't remember which is which.

Wow, give or take on the 30f of hitstun, that is considerable! I can't wait to see what kind of poo poo you can pull with that.

Any idea on roughly how long they last?

Somewhere between 5 and 10 real-world seconds I think? They're about what you'd expect.

The extra hitstun really is a lot. You can just link HPs forever if you want. You'll trigger an infinite though.

I think that the game would do really well on Steam, even if console sales were poor-especially if there was a 4-pack deal or something.If Railworks can get away with over £1000 DLC, I am sure that the extra characters wouldn't look out of place. If it came with a Team fortress 2 hat for preorders Mike Z would probably drown to death in money.

You can't be more stupid than Capcom in that case. I'm still waiting for the 2012 patch.

A PC port is pretty much at the top of the "to-do" list for Reverge, after the "get the game out" item.

In the interests of full disclosure, if the game does require any patching, can we expect to get an actual list of patch notes for balance changes, bugfixes, etc? Rather, I guess the question could be: "How much transparency can we expect after the release"?

I think the amount of transparency in the development process for this game pre-release should be indicative of Mike Z and the rest of the team's attitudes. So basically I'm saying yes there will probably be full disclosure on patch notes.

^^^^ Me neither, ha ha.

I'd guess Ms. Fortune would be closest to Slayer because she's got rekkas and an air dive super. No teleport though, and her command grab's way different. She's like a mix of him and Carl from BlazBlue.

Never mind, you should probably take Crofts' word for it.

Move properties don't change when the move becomes an assist, so all the invincibility frames will still be there. HOWEVER all assists have 3 frames of vulnerability right before they attack, so you can stuff DP/invuln assists if you time it perfectly/get lucky.

This game does have marvel-style alpha counters, i.e. your point tags out and your new character comes in and does their assist. You execute it with forward+tag while blocking.
