What?

Is the english version of melty blood type lumina digital only? I can't seem to find anywhere to preorder a physical copy.

I feel like melty is gonna be steam or bust, the whole playerbase is pc for 2 decades or however long.

True but how many of those people will gladly jump ship to a console when given the option?

Let the fools who stand before us be destroyed by the power you and I possess.
Honestly most of my play time for Melty was on PS2 once I went through the story, just because the PS2 pad was a lot better than the Logitech pad I had for PC.

It's honestly pretty rad seeing rollback become less and less of a feature, and more of a standard. It's finally happening.

What's with the eh... bretonnian dance, sir?

A worldwide pandemic really rubs it in people's faces how badly a poor netcode can wreck a game. :v:

Like man, Granblue probably got some of the worst of it too, releases with bad online and then the virus happens right after and that's all you're left with.

Now that the general unwashed masses have seen the true face of rollback netcode in Strive, good loving luck to any future fighting game that tries to shove that genie back into the bottle.

in-house rollback, i think. the guy who programmed CCCaster made a post in 2014 about being hired by the Melty Blood team and then went radio silent for years, maybe this is the culmination of that?

Was it possible to cancel clashes into other attacks in Xrd as well?
It's infuriating how meatying people that wake up DP with something like Nago's 5H turn situation neutral instead of punishing the DPer.

yeah that's been a feature of clashes since at least XX as far as i know.

It's strange, I don't remember being annoyed at that in Xrd.

EDIT: OOOOH nevermind, that is why I thought that Faust's j2K had two hits for the longest time. My anti-air would clash with it and since my friend was mashing on it, he'd cancel the clash into another j2K and hit me with it and I never realized what was actually happening.

just double/tripple tap the button and you'll auto cancel if you clash into the same button again & almost assuredly win vs whatever they try to throw out

meaty garuda impact from the right distance clashes with a lot of reversals so it's easy for me to cancel into FD and punish. eventually the people i fight will catch onto this and be ready to cancel into something as well but i'm enjoying it while i can.

except for goldlewis. i haven't looked at his super's hitbox but it must be way out there because it beats garuda clean 100% of the time. maybe if i did it really far away it would clash but i don't think they would try to wake up super from that far.

Be aware that if you get your garuda REALLY meaty and land it so only the tail 5 or so frames of garuda hit you can make it not clash with anything. I haven't gotten that down but if you have enough time to set it up it's a good thing to learn to do

After the Imposter kills off everyone else, this is what happens. If there are two imposters it becomes a 2-v-1. If one's a ghost they can provide passives in the fight to help their partner.

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


Good start but they should also have “do not allow anyone who is better than you to challenge you” also.

I mean assuming half the player base is on wifi, that’s still one half playing within their half. If wifi is totally fine like those people claim, then it shouldn’t even be a problem then!

Nobody is going to do it

Cutting off your game's accessibility for a big chunk of your audience is a bad business move

e: oh I misread what the option actually does

still not going to be a thing though

Giving people the option to filter connection types is cutting off accessibility as much as Quake displaying everyone’s ping cuts off accessibility.
