They might patch out the wavedash by launch...maybe. Kara pot buster might be here to stay though.

its really fun so far, but the servers are unreliable and laggy so it hasnt been a great experience in the beta. hopefully the server issues get ironed out for release because the netcode is super strong and matches feel great to play, some of the tech coming out is a little weird like the hitbox wavedashing but its good to play even if i cant get to floor 10 because i am complete poo poo at this game

It feels really good. I haven't played much Guilty Gear but Giovanna seems like my kind of character for my 10 IQ rushdown gameplay.

Fightstick doesn't seem to work for it yet, but I'm sure that's a beta thing.

with xrd i only ever really played ky cause the game was already complex enough and didnt have prior gg experience, strive seems like most of the others are a bit more approachable now

Final launch roster character was announced. It's I-NO, which means the Gamespot leak was true.

The game is fun and Zato=1's animations are godly. I never want to see this lobby again once the game is actually out

Having a lot of fun with this. Anti air options are really strange, hard to get used to 6p just getting blocked or for some characters feeling like it doesn't have enough range. The grabs feel nice though even though they are 1f instead of 0f startup, still pretty easy to snatch people up when they position wrong.

dash up throw is stupid strong. especially for chars that can easily combo after, i been becoming a Leo God and throw leaving him in back turn stance is really sick, you can just do the 50/50 into another knockdown over and over again bc it's a beta and everyone playing is extremely bad at FGs

as long as the player lobbies have instant rematch this game'll be really fun. the RC drift mechanic makes for some fun new combo options and the wall break reset is actually pretty cool since rounds are fairly quick and it's worth juicing every bit of damage and free meter you can get. I've been digging it although I could not play millia at all since I have too much +r and xrd muscle memory to overcome and not push her nonexistent Gatling routes

Millia does seem like she still has a lot of great mix-ups, I've fought some scary ones.
Have to say though they really have to do something about potemkin. I don't think he should have the legit aegis reflector that goes full screen, and it seems like it reversals better than it used to as well. It also seems very difficult for people to get a good punish on cheeky hamerfalls, have been able to close out a lot of matches with hamerfall hamerfall RC and other braindead combinations.

Leo and ramlethal seem super strong as well. Tried out faust and chipp and they both feel like they're missing something.. chipp is not as fast and losing the teleports feels really bad, not to mention the gatling changes being pretty bad for him.

Potemkin's punch buttons are insane disjointed super jabs that you can whiff cancel and some characters really struggle to deal with them. They're gonna have to tone him down a little I think.

theoretically you could interupt hammer fall with a jab cancelled into a super. you could also punish hammerfall on block by instant blocking which nettd you a sweet crouching jab punish. too unsafe tbh hopefully they make it +100 on block after they review the survey feedback

Second open beta test announced, with some vague notes on changes to the battle system.

as a big fan of xrd the changes to air dashing and landing are a bummer but as a guy who wants to play nago and do nothing but sit there and gently caress up anyone jumping at me the changes sound great

The changes are worded too vaguely to really have an idea of how the changes will work but I enjoyed the previous beta so I’m looking forward to it.

The only thing r-worded is the general discourse surrounding this game. I can't wait for a few months after release when everyone but the people who are going to stick with it stop caring.
