giogadi posted:Suuuuuuuper pumped to dive into my first Tekken game (besides T3 when I was in elementary school). I'm glad that the netcode is expected to be great, but what should I expect from the whole online experience outside the matches? In TTT2 was there matchmaking and/or online lobbies? Which did players tend to use more? If there's a lobby system half as good as Xrd's, that'll be all I need. Tekken 7 looks like it has a built in tournament mode for online where you can win funbucks. Which is just the greatest

DLC Inc posted:So can Rage Drives basically function in the same way EX Moves i.e. have super-armor or go through certain moves? Idk if the other Tekken games I played (T5, TTT2) had this but I'm into spending your super meter on that stuff instead of the ultra move. In general, no, they don't have armour at all. They're often far more useful than the Rage Drives though. An example, I play Leo. -Her Rage art is a slow, armoured mid that's very punishable on block but does a lot of damage on hit. -Rage Drive is a fast, wallsplatting, safe mid with incredible pushback, and if it pushes them back against a wall, is one of the very few moves in the game that can chip kill.

inthesto posted:HI I've never seriously played Tekken before but I'm all in and will play Leo because apparently she's easy to learn and also super good, so that's good enough for me I main Leo, and she's a really good character to learn the game with, and has tools for every situation. Also the non-binary gender thing she has going on enrages nerds, which is a bonus, I'mma give her a moustache.

Brosnan posted:I think if you're planning to play Kuma then you're probably not planning to take the game very seriously so it mostly doesn't matter. That said, I play Kuma as kind of a secondary dickaround character and he basically works really well against people who haven't played enough to know how to fight Kuma, and then he immediately becomes terrible when they figure it out. Fortunately some people never figure it out! Kuma is actually hella legit,there really aren't any bad characters in T7 (well, maybe Chloe)

Jmcrofts posted:Steve is hard right? I'm too scared to play anyone complicated He's hard in a sense that he has a big moveset and a lot of the moves are very specific. He's a pressure character, so it helps if you know good fundamentals. His punishment isn't great in a lot of situations, so you're reliant in your ability to go forward and force the game His combos seem a bunch easier in Tekken 7 though.

Feng is a very fundamentally solid character, who you can get fancy with his autoblock stances if you're looking to style on people.

Or does that remain to be seen, and for now it's just about people fantasizing about finally marrying the woman they've been dreaming about since she was this Homage to Kill Bill?

Trykt posted:Gonna share some generally important lessons for newer peeps that I've learned from playing Tekken and 3D fighting games in general over the years . Some/all of this might seem super obvious but I promise each of these bullet points was a genuine fuckin' epiphany for me at some point: There ARE some mid to high strings that are okay though, namely ones that jail, meaning if you block them standing you can't duck the high. The post is bang on though, everything in this will improve you massively starting out.

poe meater posted:How hard is Nina and Bryan execution wise anyways? In TTT2 Nina is one of the hardest characters due to her iWS1 loops. It seems like you don't need to have these in 7 to make her usable, so she shouldn't be too hard. Bryans main difficulty spike is in using his unblockable taunt into Jet Upper launcher, which is a super tricky 1 frame link. HOWEVER, he's perfectly usable without this, and you'll rarely see even high level players attempt it any more (It was far more powerful in older versions of the game). Kazuya is probably the hardest execution character, just because his EWGF and wavedash are absolutely critical to play him at any level.

Trykt posted:As long as Bryan can still do Taunt into f+2,1,4 I don't think I'll ever feel an especially strong need to learn to do Jet Upper instead. I still don't really understand how you're supposed to do a B,F input in 1 frame or whatever!!!!!!! It's a manually timed 1-frame link, you need to hit f, then on the next frame back and right punch to hit the exact 1-frame where it will connect. Taunt b+3 is more lenient and more useful, as it gives you full launch at the wall, where they can't backdash the short range on his taunt.

Your Computer posted:I love Feng and have been practicing with him in TTT2 the last days (turns out I had TTT2 on my WiiU even though I've never played it), does he get any noticeable changes to how he plays in T7? He's pretty similar, he got a great new move in f+1+2 thats a homing mid with great range and gets use in combos as well. He's viable at all range, has some great lows and pokes in general, although his hopkick is kinda stubby, so he's not always the best at whiff punishment. I'd link to some useful guides but TZ is down right now, though if you want something to watch Aris from avoiding the puddle did a great youtube series on the character thats super in depth.

tyblazitar posted:I don't really want to delve into the gross puddle too much, but is all the really icky Aris stuff mostly in the past and he's now either just learnt to hide it or legitimately a better person? Or does he just stay on the mat when doing high profile stuff like commenting while being a giant turd on his own stream? Aris has honestly improved a LOT since The Incident. I mean, he's still something of a offensive, but I watch his stream a fair bit and the sexist stuff seems gone entirely. He's far less offensive than Zhi at this point, and the man clearly does love Tekken, and is great at commentating it. Jimmy J Tran is the best US Tekken player, but he doesn't seem to show up a lot recently. Anakin, Princess Ling, Speedkicks and Bronson probably round out the top 5

However your 2 followup from the stance is a high ch launcher that beats any retaliation that isn't ducking, and 3,4 hopkicks them out of any ducking buttons. You can also take the safe option and df out of stance tue quickly sidestep block. Done at fastest timing you end up neutral B1,4 is one of the best moves in the game, abuse it

Unfortunately Tru3 isn't any good at fighting games*, and gives out lots of incorrect and outright bad advice. He's Max if Max was less well informed. If you want a stream to learn things from, despite his faults, Aris is by far the best streamer to watch right now. *The only times I've heard of him showing up for offline tournaments, he got massacred.
