Ran a long-ish set with my friend's Azrael. Tons of fun, the game changes when you're able to skype/voice chat with the dude you're playing. Having real time feedback and the ability to take/give tips and respond on the fly is just too good. I know exactly what to train up when I hit the lab for the azrael matchup now.
That was kinda neat. Shame ArcSys is blue balling the console scene by not talking at all about how 2.0 is going to be distributed. Just announce that it's gonna be DLC and I'll happily buy Kokonoe Arc sys ... ;-;

I'll give you a hint: It'll be a minimum of six months after the arcade release. 50/50 mixup on free versus not free.
I don't think he meant free vs not free, but rather DLC vs new retail copy.
Edit: I'm starting to miss this game. Interested in seeing how this new version plays out.
I've got a similar attitude. For some reason CP didn't really stick for me (although I was having a lot of issues with netplay that exacerbated things) but maybe CP Extend HD Remix II Accent Core will.
Well...
Yup, but I think it's 2-8 in favor of it being a new release. I'm also predicting a PS4 release alongside it. Mori kind of slipped and said there wouldn't be a PS4 version unless it had new content. I forgot at what event he said that, but he did say it.
Probably this interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZ49gYSNe7E
At work right now so I can't dig for the particular line too effectively, but it's in there. From what I recall the gist was that it would need to be a substantially new game, possibly like CP2, and not just a graphical upgrade of CP.

Here's a link that I found on Twitter (it's in Japanese): http://www.famitsu.com/matome/bbcp/ver2_6.html

I can't tell if Tager was nerfed or buffed ...
Lost 6B overhead but it can combo off of 6A now
360B Buster loses hard knockdown but gains combo-ability in the corner/with sparkbolt
Gains armor on Drive moves during overdrive.
He's different for sure and his block string mixups are definitely weaker with the loss of overhead 6B but ... I guess we'll see.
Bang and Rachel both look scary as fuck though. Blocking during Furinkazan and new ground bumper is gonna be amazing and Rachel can sword iris the goddamn bats. So scary.

It went live yesterday ... in arcades.
Consoles will get it whenever ArcSys remembers that they have an audience outside of the arcade.
Lol, I didn't get the reason for 4200 until I saw the video title. I can't imagine how people managed to get combos to do that exact damage.

I saw Platinum get beat up twice before the first and only Platinum combo was shown.
Terrible video.

The combos were awesome.

Where is all the CP2 talk about shit that was found after release? I'll go first.
Hazama still has his j.C loops. Can't stop and won't stop Haz.
Terumi can't convert off of j.2C on standing opponents anymore, but now he has real air combos! So ... eh, we'll see how that goes.
Izayoi looks good, but she lost some stuff - https://twitter.com/Kerahime/status/521288540974379009
Not too sure about Kagura, I've only heard he has a mean corner combo.

It's six months in the future, when I'm actually able to play the game
j.2D*
I'd talk more about Terumi's changes if I were actually good at the game. I imagine the 6D nerf makes him a lot less threatening in the corner, though.
Argh, can't believe I made that typo since I know he can cancel into j.2D off of j.D now.
He can still convert off of 6D, just not with 5C in the corner anymore. He still gets the 236D follow up mid-screen. 6D seems to send them flying at a lower angle overall. I wish somebody was able to check to see if you can combo off of j.2D on crouchers. If you can, then I wouldn't consider it a big deal.
Oh, best buff, they got rid of the lvl 2 stomp.
236D is such a shitty corner ender, though. I'm hoping that something like 6D > 2A or 5B > 5C > 2C jump cancel is still going to work for corner oki, since the 6D safejump is gone. If that's not an option, it'll probably take 50 meter for Orochi B ender? That sounds awful.
(Wonder if there's some way of ending in a meaty 2D in the corner. 3C > 2D doesn't work, right?)
Not having to mash out 22C(3) is going to be nice, though. I bought a set of eight silencing pads a few months ago and I've already had to move them around three times because the one on my C button gets worn out way quicker than any of the other ones.

Regarding 2.0 stuff I'm still not sure why Tager lost knockdown on 360b and overhead properties on 6B. Like that ... really isn't a buff for him, rarely will I find myself having cornered my opponent to where I can make use of the comboability without sacrificing sparkbolt and without 6B I can't commit to a safe-ish mixup option. Kind of unfortunate.
That said, the unnoted buffs to his move's properties bring some interesting stuff to his game. 5D now wallbounces an airbound opponent (not sure about ground) so that he can now combo off things like atomic collider (AA grab) midscreen. Air jB now ground bounces on counterhit and I'm prettty sure 720 does more damage raw.
How is someone going to commit to pressuring a Tager with overdrive guard cancel in play? You either have to rely entirely on not getting magnetized and poking him with long range normals or get in close and just use a series (if you have that option) of jump cancellable normals over and over again. If you have your own overdrive in play I suppose it may be possible that you can just use single pokes, wait for his guard cancel, and then activate your own OD to backdash out? Haven't seen anyone overdrive an overdrive yet though so we'll see how viable that option is in the coming weeks.
Overall though I suppose he hasn't changed much, his complete lack of any buffs to his neutral will mean that his gameplan stays more or less the same - walk slowly forward, block, and hope you can get away with your opponent guessing wrong. Except now with overdrive changes making use of his large health pool and eating more damage instead of bursting will allow him to keep the threat of ODGC as part of the match. Even if Tager himself hasn't changed if the opponent has to cripple their pressure strings in order to safely take him on with meter then it's going to significantly change the way his matches play out. But if they have the life lead why would they bother? Guess we'll see, he's more of a hodge podge of different changes at the moment.
The music was horrid but the concept amused me. Neat stuff.

Good question, they killed a good chunk of izayoi's oki, too. Her safe jump and roll catch was kinda brain dead in GA mode, though.
Pretty sure that 3C > 2D doesn't work. As for 6D, I've only seen a 5A hit after it other than 236D.
Tetsuwo seemed to be doing better combos than the combos in the training mode video. I'm so glad he's playing Jin again lol. Hopefully that leads to more videos since it wasn't that easy to find a lot of Jin videos in CP1.
It seems that you can't really go for freeze mixups with Jin anymore without sacrificing a lot of damage or something I guess, considering people aren't going for them. Looks like I need to actually learn how to pressure people instead of just trying to win with freeze mixups
.Also I'm really interested in playing Nu or Lambda in this version. Hopefully one of them is easier to play than CP1 Nu and good lol.

I can't wait to play BBCP2 Mak Her combos look so fun now.
Her combos look so fun now.Back to Terumi's j.2D.

This guy landed it on a crouching arakune and once in a crouching amane iirc. Non-CH, but extremely low to the ground with a 2A follow-up. Feel free to correct me if the shit quality is fooling my eyes.

Thank you, my eyes are legit shit. Now we just need to know if it's character specific.
I think that's the way my BBCS:EX audio CD came, too. It's probably just how they do it.
Woah, mine was definitely not like that.
But wow, how often do they have to fuck it up before realizing that they should be more careful??
Definitely makes me less interested in the GGXrd LE.

CT Nu was super overrated though
My balls she was. She's the reason I dropped CT. At least this time there's a more diverse cast and some can deal with her BS.

XisBannedTier
I don't even have her in Top 5
I quit before that. I decided to play as Tager and made one of the worst mistakes in my life for fighters.
Before I quit, I had her in "Fuck you" tier. It just makes it worse when all you fight are an army of Nu's. There was not enough salt in the world to describe how I felt.

Tager just sucked lol.
But yeah not counting that match up Nu was a monster scrub killer

Oh, I'm not as scared of her this time. I just remember the salt I had from CT. I can take her down now if I had to.
I miss the days of Goro Nu. Japan actually had some awesome Nus.
Over here, we don't need them. Because for some reason everyone's compelled to air dash full screen again Nu.
And Nu was definitely top 5, just not absolute top. She has some pretty safe matchups against the top part of the cast, just not as dominating as Rachel.

You could fight my shitty unoptimized Kokonoe if you want.
Invite sent. I'm rusty :/ Sorry it took so long for me to see.
Oh, I can't play for a while, sorry for not being clear :/
