Persona 4 Arena Sequel Announced [Japanese arcade-only update for now]

Who's posting about Mitsuru damage nerfs?
Stunedge?
Don't see anything on Jiyuna's.

Jiyuna mentioned her corner BNB with a super at the end only does 3100 now, it used to do more than 4k IIRC (I don't remember the exact damage).

I mean we don't know what starter they used or anything, but it's not very comforting considering her DP and bufudyne were both nerfed (although they were justified).
 
Screw you Mitsuru haters. The fur coat will still live strong.

Aigis is nerfed right? I would totally be okay with that.
 
mitsuru is only good for looking at.

She should be a footsie character like chun li archetype. She shouldn't be hitting people for like makoto like damage + mixup.

I hope to god they fix chies oki game. Its too fucking stupid.

Oki is my favorite aspect of fighting games. I hope he's still good at it.

Its not really oki. Its fucking putting people in the blender.

Chie and Narukami got their sweep cancelling properties changed so they dont really have it (I know chie can still do it off aoa in the corner)

Some changes from dustloop

- Air radical cannon added
- Command air dash added (?)
- Double megido not possible
- Air horizontal machine gun taken out
- Autocombo changed

It looks like j.C is slower and mode change to j.C might not work.

To be fair, besides the nerfs to her DP, Bufudyne, and damage, she still seems to have all of her tools and everything. She'll probably still be good, just not as godlike as before.

We also don't know anything about her new ice projectile or confusion move. Haven't heard anything about coup nerfs either, so that's good!
 
I feel like mitsu 5a needs to be a tad slower. 1-2 frames slower.

Also her coup shouldn't be a free get in. Atleast not B coup. I'm find with EX since its spending meter.

Pretty much all changes everyone expected, give or take. I wanna see the new Autocombo. Hopefully it works better than her old one for Orgia mode.

Double Megido not being possible will hopefully put more emphasis on the other stuff she gets in Orgia mode.
 
I'll get this if it comes out west, i just hope it's not region locked or Europe doesn't get such a LOOOOOOOOONG, time to wait for the game to release here. I would like Margaret from Persona 4 in this so we could have a velvet room resident fight.

Yeah, doesn't seem too bad. Glad about not hearing about coup nerfs.
 
Yukari is sort of a stiff - a stick in the mud. Which is why it's so cool she's a Featherman now; they picked the character you'd least expect to do that to.

I know, it's just so perfect.

I was really afraid they'd give her a generic story. (oh i'm a model now, and i have a photo shot in paris, yay me) Picturing her as a featherman is making me giddy with excitement.

"How you liking the location test version of the game?
Well, you'll see my real stuff when the game goes into full release!
...HEY! I'm not kidding, man! Come back and see for yourself!"

I fucking love Junpei.

Same here man, totally.

I think Makoto is a lock just by virtue of the fact the films are happening. No clue who the last edition would be. I'd be thrilled with Margaret, but she's completely underrated ;_;

Probably appear at the very end of the story then boom also playable.
 
Hard to understand with so many pages and not clear OP.

Is it

1) Full Sequel "Persona 4 Arena 2" (like Street Fighter 3 to Street Fighter II)
2) Upgraded "sequel" (like Super Street Fighter II to Street Fighter II)
3) DLC
 
He doesn't have to appear in the story. I'm happy if he's just playable.

(and cmon, not making him playable would be a travesty. He's the main character of Persona 3, for crying out loud!)
 
I am speculating that the last two characters will be Kei Nanjo and
Nyarlathotep
as they both have some relevance to the story unlike the protagonist of Persona 3. Plus the latter could be a Double/Skullgirls style character.

Tartarus as a location now just screams there heading that direction. :p

between SF2-SF3 and SF2 to SSF2

new story mode which is significant
new characters
and possibly new gameplay mechanics.

It's not DLC. All Famitsu said it's a sequel.
 
I hope that PS3 becomes the lead platform. Most people on the 360 are more concerned with FPS's, Sports, & WRPG's than they are for Fighting games.

Not only that, most fighting games sells more on PS3 than on 360, & people play more fighters on PS3 (even for a longer period of time) than for 360, especially due to free online play & a better D-Pad.

You're generalizing really hard. The fighting game community on the 360 is still perfectly fine; do most ps3 owners smash their face against Hyperdimension Neptunia?

Christ, fighting games need to stop doing bosses. S. Lab is one of the more bearable ones and that's probably because she doesn't really count!

Oh man, I really hope that Junpei has Vorpal Blade as his Instant Kill. I have very fond memories of tearing the Reaper a new one using Junpei's Vorpal Blade while he was in Great condition.
 
Evasive Actions are full projectile invincible now.

Does that mean they can't get hit by projectiles on start up and recovery of the rolls?

I dunno how I feel about that. Kinda wanted better zoning in this game, but then again, I'm not sure if this'll change things much.
