If he's still wearing that nun gear I have absolutely no objections.

But yeah, I was referring to how they managed to replicate guilty gear's signature low frame animation. It's impressive honestly. Even though they could have made it much smoother.

Maybe she got more work done.

 

[Zephyrus]

They're working from scratch, so some characters will have to be left out at the first edition. Still, I think May has a secure spot, after all she's one of the top 10.
Zappa is probably one of the characters that will be dropped, I don't think he's that popular and he doesn't play much of a role in the story.

NO.

NO.

Delay it as much as they need. All previous characters have to be in. Even that horrible key girl.

And we need new characters. Crow has to be playable too.

horrible key girl?


I don't think i can talk to you

 

[JoeFenix]

WOW!

This is definitely some next-gen character modeling, looks like even UE will be able to deliver great results on PS4/XWHATEEVS.

I'm dreaming of Hard Corps Uprising 2 with this look, holy shit!

 

[NEO0MJ]

Is there a link to the results?

Wait they showed the results fo the poll? Mind linking to it please?

Don't have a link, as they were revealed during Arc fest, but the top ten were:

10. Slayer
9. Jam
8. May
7. Johnny
6. Chipp
5. Baiken
4. Ky
3. Dizzy
2. Sol
1. Bridget

And we need new characters. Crow has to be playable too.

This is why they'll have to drop characters. I mean, no 2.5 D fighter other than Marvel had a cast that exceeded the 20s. The GG series has 25 fighters, and they'll introduce new fighters for the enw game so some will have to be dropped until GG Xrd -sign- Beltdrive.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Maybe she got more work done.

Nope.

Bridget is sacred.

No retconning into a female.

10. Slayer
9. Jam
8. May
7. Johnny
6. Chipp
5. Baiken
4. Ky
3. Dizzy
2. Sol
1. Bridget

Haha, wow, didn't realise bridget was that popular.

Especially because of his tier position. Hoping they buff him up in Xrd.

 

[Mista Koo]

So freaking hot. Just watched the trailer for the 3rd time.

I always thought it was possible to animate 3d models as if they were a sprite and get the same feel as a 2D fighting game.

Me too. This looks exactly like how I envisioned a fighting game that I would make.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

A.B.A is awful to play and listen to but I do like her design.

 

[SolarPowered]

I can't be the only one who notices that Sol's weapon now looks like an effin' lighter:

More detail can capture that aspect nowadays.

 

[The Grim Heaper]

1. Bridget

wtf japan

 

[Kusagari]

I'd be fine with that top 10 being most of the returning cast.

Most of my favorites are in there.

lmao at Bridget being #1 though.

 

[Antiwhippy]

wtf japan

Japan has good taste, what can I say.

Aye, this is why I can't think of a GG without May. I'd be happy with the following roster:

. Sol Badguy
. Ky Kyske
. Millia Rage
. Eddie
. May
. Johnny
. Jam Kuradoberi
. Chipp Zanuff
. Venom
. Baiken
. Anji Mito
. Potemkin
. Faust
. Axl Low
. Bridget
. Testament
. Dizzy
. I-No
. Slayer
. Zappa (why not at this point? He's pretty unique)
. 2 new characters

6. Chipp

Ah, not bad. Thought he wasn't much liked.

Testament nowhere to be found? SMH Japan.

Bridget at #1 is just...lol Japan.

Do we know what BB's is?

 

[Rickenslacker]

Slayer needs to be in. No other ASW character can match that swag.

 

[SolarPowered]

wtf japan

At least they look at characters beyond the pretty box art. I love Sol, but I think it's awesome that someone like her could win.

She'd be torn apart in the US and I think that is sad.

 

[Midou]

At least the top 10 should be guaranteed, but I hope they include at least 15 characters. Slayer should be in for sure at least, so I am satisfied, hopefully they squeeze in as many as they can though.

Why do you lie to yourself...

 

[gundamkyoukai]

Fuck yeah that Baiken up there can't wait to see here .
Still i don't think they going to leave out much of the cast members .
Depends on long they have been working on this and when they plan to bring it out .

 

[Tan]

Well this looks amazing.

 

[cj_iwakura]

Bridget at #1 is just...lol Japan.

Do we know what BB's is?

No, but we know the answer already.

Spoiler

Platinum.

You do know Bridget's male, I hope.

 

[Shito]

No way they are going to dump those awesome, and very expensive, 2D sprites.

KOFXIV will be 2D.

SNK is hiring in Osaka for a 3D KOF and Samurai Spirits.
Maybe it won't be KOF XIV, but we're gonna see a new 3D KOF for sure.

 

[2+2=5]

I hope they don't ruin my beloved Jam

Millia's presence in the trailer but not the rankings gives me hope for Potemkin.

Slayer needs to be in. No other ASW character can match that swag.

damn straight

 

[SolarPowered]

She?

I can't recall what gender she/he identified with at the end. I'm not that much of a scrub lol.

Millia's presence in the trailer but not the rankings gives me hope for Potemkin.

They WILL have a grappler.

 

[Oyashrio-Sama]

Nope.

Awwyeah!

 

[DY_nasty]

This is such good thing

But ABA hate? One of the best designs and the best theme and stage by far? Crazy good high end play?

I hope all your faves get nerfed

 

[alstein]

I think Arc will start with a low roster, but add chars in as DLC (I just hope they don't put out a new disc every year) If they're smart- they could probably sell $100-$200 of DLC over the life of the game of legitimate new content that fans will like.

 

[QisTopTier]

I can't recall what gender she/he identified with at the end. I'm not that much of a scrub lol.

His entire story is about him wanting to prove how manly he could be. :lol

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

After watching that video I'm super hyped. WANT WANT WANT

 

[SolarPowered]

His entire story is about him wanting to prove how manly he could be. :lol

I don't keep up with the story. I like the gameplay and music most.

 

[Midou]

His entire story is about him wanting to prove how manly he could be. :lol

Needs a victory animation or insta-kill where he turns into a huge muscular jojo/fist of the north star style character, while wearing the same clothes, would be amazing.

I don't keep up with the story. I like the gameplay and music most.

That's fair, though I thought the gender was pretty common knowledge.

Honestly that's what I never liked about BB, felt like too much focus on story and character backgrounds, which I didn't really care about at all.

 

[GG-Duo]

This is amazing. It's been so long since Guilty Gear X came out...

But I'm a bit worried about the character art. Ky looks really weird. He's gone from being a pretty boy to a girl. His in-game model also looks kinda short...

 

[NEO0MJ]

Millia's presence in the trailer but not the rankings gives me hope for Potemkin.

I think Potemkin is guaranteed to appear, the game needs a grappler and he's one of game essential fighters. I imagine Faust will be back, too.

 

[ezekial45]

Slayer is going to look amazing in this game. I can't wait to see him.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Honestly though, I'd expect at least 3/4 of the cast to return.

Also yes, can't wait to see how swag slayer is going to look.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Ky looks really weird. He's gone from being a pretty boy to a girl. His in-game model also looks kinda short...

Yes, he looks more French.

 

[Kai Dracon]

Ha ha, Slayer isn't even a character. He's a pile of swag wearing a rubber mask.

 

[SolarPowered]

That's fair, though I thought the gender was pretty common knowledge.

Honestly that's what I never liked about BB, felt like too much focus on story and character backgrounds, which I didn't really care about at all.

It ought to be after all the jokes, but knowing what he identifies with would require a bit more digging and I never cared about what he wanted to be. I was preoccupied with trying to get people over the moon whenever I picked him.

 

[88random]

Pot is one of Daisukes favourite characters, he is in for sure. I think they will all make it into the game except maybe Justice and Kliff.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Ha ha, Slayer isn't even a character. He's a pile of swag wearing a rubber mask.

He's maybe my favorite dude in any fighting game for this very reason.

And Pot is one of Daisukes favourite characters, he is in for sure. I think they will all make it into the game except maybe Justice and Kliff.

No way they can have a new GG without Potempimp.

 

[Oyashrio-Sama]

wtf japan

wait Bridget is popular? for real???

Testament nowhere to be found? SMH Japan.

Bridget at #1 is just...lol Japan.

Do we know what BB's is?

Haters gonna Hate.

 

[Village]

Yes, he looks more French.

Hey that is no tr..

Well in the eyes of japan...

 

[QisTopTier]

I would have gladly taken King Ky but that's later on.

 

[LowParry]

His entire story is about him wanting to prove how manly he could be. :lol

Manly indeed!

 

[Black Door]

I had to watch the trailer twice and see a still of Sol knocking out Ky before I realized the entire game was 3D. Bravo, Arcsys. The only questionable element of your decision is the choice of UE, however...

 

[SGRemy]

My Millia is in so I could care less about the rest of the cast. Hope they buff Johnny. He's too cool to be low tier!!

 

[GG-Duo]

I hope they cut Order-Sol and completely reimagine Robo-Ky so he looks less like regular Ky.

Who do you guys think they'll cut, if they have to?

 

[OriginalNameGuy]

Beefcake Sol is no good, but my hype level is still maximum.
