Something that is to be noted wrt that Tekken 7 tier list is that even Chloe has seen tournament play, and a lot of charcters in B Tier are common sights in Tourneys. Pick who you want, there are no 3s Chun-Li's here

Tekken 7 pools at Battle Arena Melbourne are about to start. Saint and JDCR are there, so there should be some good matches. Australia has some pretty good players thanks to our arcade scene too. https://www.twitch.tv/bandainamcoeurope

I couldn't make it to this tournament so I'm just watching. 😭

Chloe is legit and a fun character. I hated her when first I saw the reveal, but after playing 7 she grew on me.

I played jinpachi in TT2, dunno who if anyone in this game is similar. Failing that I can't wait to join the akuma army watch as people parkinsons wavedash past my fireballs.

In general I think season passes are dumb so unless you're diehard (me in this case), there doesn't seem like much reason to get it until we actually know what the specific content will be.

There's also no savings on buying the deluxe edition or season pass now instead of later unless they bump the price, so there's really no reason to get it in advance.

Don't get it, i'm sure that the extra 2 characters and the extra mode will be separate dlc as well if you really want them. This is coming from a dude who got the deluxe version before knowing it was only two extra characters.

Is there like an even more basic guide than the basic guide posted in the OP? I'm not a fighting games person so I don't understand all this talk about "yomi your opponent to crush their okizeme" jargon and just want to casually punchmans but also still would like to get just a little more proficient than "randomly press buttons" :saddowns:

Consult the fight game glossary.

Yoming someones okizeme means playing mind games with them when they get off the ground

The in-game tutorial will probably suit your needs

And if you want a basic introduction to fighting games in terms of "what should I actually be trying to do when I'm playing?" this video is a classic:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0cFs5mHQC4

The 2 main concepts (controlling space and pressing the advantage) are core to basically every fighting game, T7 included. you'll hear "okizime" or "oki" in reference to Tekken a lot, and all that means is specifically pressing the advantage after you knock the opponent down.

I've read that bound has been removed but in the videos i've watched the moves that would have bounded in the past seem to produce a similar animation and in other videos i've seen combos result from picking the person back up.

What's changed, functionally?

Certain moves cause a new state called "screw" where the opponent spins 360 in the air and lands with their legs pointing up. It's similar to bound because you can only get 1 per combo and it lets you keep a combo going off the ground, but I think it's more limited in terms of how long the combos after can be.

Still training..
Also, compared to Bound, more stage carry in combos but you can't really use them to extend combos at walls.

In retrospect it was pretty dumb that you could B! people from wallsplat in TTT2 and just do a gang beatdown in the corner, so the screw thing is probably a pretty good replacement. Also means good bnbs are also automatically decent wall carry.

Will this game have custom soundtracks like TT2? I really miss when tekken had actual variety instead of every single song being dubstep/D&B of varying quality

If they put knocc 'em down in Tekken 7, it must also come with the music video that shows exactly how no party involving fighting videogames goes down, in any house, ever.

If they can't do that, then this is for the best

Pretty important for learning to punish, but you don't need to know the frame data for all of your moves. Just learn the best punishes for your char and start learning what they work on from there.
