darealkooky posted:*"but wait a minute", I hear you type, "isn't this game just a patch?". It is if you own the PS4 version. The PS4 version that used to be identical to and have crossplay with the PS3 version. The PS3 version that will not be getting CLR at all. The PS4 version that still has a option in the online mode to filter players by their console which no longer does anything because they've dropped PS3 support but put so little work into this game that they just forgot or didn't bother to remove this setting. If you're an optimist you can maybe hope that PC crossplay is coming, but they haven't even loving announced a PC version at all so I wouldn't hold your breath. CLR isn’t a free ST patch on ps3 or vita but it exists as a standalone game. You also get a discount for owning ST on psn. Edit: oh drat I totally misinterpreted that. If you own it on ps3 or vita you get a discount on the ps4 version. Never mind. Gutcruncher fucked around with this message at 23:23 on Feb 20, 2020 |

darealkooky posted:the jump from EL to ST was very substantial but the jump from ST to CLR feels like all those filler blazblue titles where they made you buy the game again just for a balance patch and 1 new character, a new character that doesn't even seem especially worth it. unist launched with one new character lol, the only difference is it took fb two years to make a console version

not only is wagner/enkidu still 100% more new character than CLR, that's not how that sentence was supposed to be read. ST introduced the entire crazy elaborate tutorial mode, the super long VN story mode thing, a ton of new and unique colors for everyone, an entirely new set of menus for everything, a bunch of sweeping system changes and new mechanics and also the balance patch & two (four for anyone that never played the game in japanese arcades) new characters I'm not saying "why isnt CLR as good as ST", I'm saying "why was there a three year gap between EL and ST console releases, but with a two year gap between ST and CLR it feels like proportionally a lot less has changed than the precedent they set". If they just needed more time or didn't put in as much work for this one I can't say, but at any rate I'm not really sure why they released the game like this at all except to try and cash in on their sudden evo hype darealkooky fucked around with this message at 00:40 on Feb 21, 2020 |

As much as I like the current norm of games getting patched up to the latest release instead of requiring a re-buy when the game changes, this really does highlight the main problem. If you don’t like CLR and would rather stick to ST you can’t unless you keep your console offline and never let the game update and now you can never play online again. It’s worse for something like, say, street fighter 5 where if Season 2 was your favorite you’re hosed, since the only disk releases were at seasons 1, 3, and 5. You just CANT play S2 ever again.

If I had to guess, the relative success of BBTAG 2.0 has created a push towards big change patches alongside a costly influx of new characters. Simply because then even people who don’t want the new characters will still play to try the new changes, and maybe thus buy the cool new characters.

2.0 was cool bc they had patch notes available 7 months before the update actually happened.

I just bought Samurai Shodown and am going to buy UNICLR digitally for the PS4 since I only have UNIST on the PC. I have been trying to use SFV to finally get slightly less bad at fight games but I am just not having fun with it. I figure between the two of them, I am bound to learn something. Maybe even enough to win a round before being eliminated at EVO this summer.

Real hurthling! posted:Bummer about clr. Good thing i suck too much poo poo at it to care and have samsho to play instead CLR is fine and everyone complaining about dead characters/Wagner throw are massive tools, the revision is officially less than 24 hours old. If you want to complain about "PS4 only" and no PC in sight that's your prerogative but being shocked they would drop PS3 and Vita support is loving insane.

Since this is actual DLC instead of a patch, wouldn't that mean they need to pay Sony for certification for each console they would want to release it on? Not to mention the cost of the actual development work that needs to be done specifically for each system.

UNICLR question. Why is the bottom input a DP and the top input a 3A? There's a 60 frame pause in there to make sure the character returns to neutral, and both inputs take exactly 15 frames so I'm not running out of input buffer.

also for some reason they still have the "don't stream more than the first hour of story mode" stipulation which is insanity for two reasons one of which is who the gently caress is going to stream under night's story mode, the second is that it's the same loving story mode as UNIST for the most part and that game's been out for yonks wtf i know it's almost certainly a mandate from the japanese guys but what new content would even be shown there come on now

Look at this nerd trying to play a video game on a console from one generation ago. The real cool kids are messing with FPGA dev boards to play arcade games that nobody actually likes anymore. I'll see you at the Bloodstorm tourney I will be hosting completely by myself and so far only has me as an entrant please enter my tourney I'm begging you. For real though needing to drop however much extra for a used PS4 just to play the most current version of a game sucks.

You can tell a console is dead when it stops getting the yearly fifa release I wouldn't be surprised if sony just doesn't bother certifying ps3 stuff anymore except for emergencies.
