I've also gotten a couple pretty laggy matches, but only 2 out of like the...what, 20 I've played so far have been super annoying.

I'm crashing after every match now so I think that means I need to take a break. So far Freeza is my favorite character to play, his 2H is gigantic and active forever and Golden Freeza can put in work.

I'm doing pretty good with Krillin/Goku/Vegeta, but I might trade Vegeta out. I'm also liking Kid Buu, and I had some time with 18, but I need to get a better hang of her. Gohan's pretty alright, but I feel like you need to have a good grasp on Potential Unleashed to use him really effectively. Like, I've seen guys build up a bunch of ki and fire off 1-bar Unleashes every time you get near to be untouchable.

Also I can't figure out what arena match is. There are stamps for it and it seems "open."

God everyones English VA work is outstanding but 18's has no idea how to do rapid fire punching shouts. Her launcher is one of the most awkward things I've heard in awhile.

The arena in the middle let you play with other people in the lobby in the last beta.

Nope and my stick cord is too short to reach my PS4 comfortably so I'm using that as an excuse to just wait til release.

Is the training mode accessible? I completed the battle tutorial but it was still disabled last night.

This is my first ArcSys game with these auto combos. Hope relying on these doesn't gently caress me up too much. Then again the seem p similar to MvC2 at least going by half remembered memories.

It's kinda weird that characters can't leave projectiles out once they tag out. According to Max's videos they used to be able to.

Hellzone Grenade vanishes if you DHC out, the Saibamen despawn if Nappa isn't there etc.

He played the final game, the beta is probably an earlier development branch

Maybe you already know this but just in case you don't: in most 2D fighting games you can't throw the opponent if they're in hitstun or blockstun or immediately after they get up from a knockdown. If your opponent is in any of these 3 states you have to wait very slightly for their throw invincibility to end before attempting a throw.

Nintendo pro controller is probably better anyway, dual shock buttons are mushier than I'd want for a fighting game

Take this with a grain of salt but after turning off "Automatically save replays" I've had no stalling/crashing issues when a match is over.

I never played on a Pro, I wouldn't be surprised, but I like the DS3/4 for fighting games.

Gohan assist is still invincible, yeah? He's gonna be real popular to put in the back.

"I Dare."
Vegeta assist really seems to be the poo poo, Cell is close but Vegeta just gives you so much time to mix things up. Nappa seems crazy difficult to make work and Beerus played well seems brute annoying. Only had a little time to play but really my only complaint is that things can get a bit samey after a bit, which I hope a full roster and some actual experience will fix. Also damned Kid Buu is tricky and I have no idea how to deal with his assist.

Adult Gohan is a Melty Blood character when you have 7 meters and is still a Melty Blood character before that. He seems quite strong.
