I don't have the patience for that anymore with fighting games. I started cussing up a storm with my friends when I found out you had to unlock characters in SCV. I don't care if characters are locked in story mode or whatever. I just want to be able to play as all of them in multiplayer as soon as I load the game up.

I actually used to really enjoy unlocking characters in Smash and Tekken and Soul Calibur, but I just don't have the patience or the time nowadays.
Oh and now that I've put in an hour or so with every character (minus the dlc's), I've determined that I like Azrael, Litchi, Ragna, Taokaka, Izayoi, Bullet and Terumi.
I would like to play Amane cause I really like his playstyle but I fucking hate his character design.

I used to enjoy unlocking Smash characters in Melee with friends. It's a more of a nuisance now. 2 - 3 hours for one character is something I can tolerate.

They should have done something like an exhibition mode where all the characters are unlocked for versus but the unlocks are for offline/story/arcade play. Considering the frequency I play games online these days it doesn't bother me but it's still a practice that should become more common.

I am getting absolutely destroyed online. I've won once, but damn it was a good feeling and it felt earned.
I have no idea how to get people off of me when I'm in the corner. It's like once I'm in the corner I'm completely fucked.

Barrier block or counter assualt
The Mango Sentinel
Member
Yeah I counter assault if I have the meter. Barrier block seems to only half ass work for me. Most players seem to know how to just stay on top of me. I'm not familiar with the game and it shows.
Ehh I'm sure I'll figure it out.
What's your PSN?

I'm garbage at the game but since I do regularly play fighting games I kinda have a small grasp on what I should be doing. But I'm certainly not making any of the characters look good, haha.
Can't play right now though cause I'm about to go out.
I sent you a friend request. I doubt I'll be available tomorrow night, but I can play some on Tuesday.
Oh yeah, I never did throw out my PSN in here, did I? My PSN, Steam, XBL, etc. are all Uraizen
I liked Other M, too.

I'm usually good for Fri - Mon. But if you happen to see me on another day, just send me an invite.
Hope that my package arrives today, been wanting to train on the new Tager and also get going on Azrael as soon as possible. How did the DLC characters work? Was Terumi included and Kokonoe had to be bought seperately? Gonna make sure I have those two and the BGM DLCs (kinda prefer the old tracks vs. the new ones).

Any Azrael players? When the opponent is marked with both of the symbols, his Black Hawk Stinger or whatever it's called is supposed to be unblockable right? But there's some situations when it gets blocked. Why is that?
And fuck Arakune and Kokonoe. What the hell am I supposed to do against this? Jesus.

I'm gonna go ahead and guess they were air barrier blocking
each mark makes black hawk stinger unblockable for that type of blocking, so having both marks means it's unblockable on the ground.
you can still air barrier block it or counter assalt it.
if you only have one mark, then it can still be blocked: if you have a high mark, then hte opponent can low block and vice versa.

Yeah I figured it had to be air barrier blocking, but I had the computer set to do that in training and it was still getting hit....... Until just right now. Maybe I wasn't timing it properly and the computer had just hit the ground.
Thanks guys.

The best tip for fighting Kokonoe is to set the controller down and walk away 
The Mango Sentinel
Member
Haha, that certainly feels like the only choice.The best tip for fighting Kokonoe is to set the controller down and walk away
Enjoying the game a lot but man I have some serious work to do.
Hazama and Terumi players are, like their characters, jerks. When one of those characters start a combo I feel like putting down the controller, make something to eat and hope they are done when I get back.
I can never achieve those 30-50 hit combos that just goes on and on without end. I love fighting games but have never ever achieved that kind of muscle memory required. I just fumble after 4-5 hits. Most of the online matches so far I don't even really get to play, just spend a match desperately try to get out of a combo and hope I hit a jab.

Not sure if you're referring to combos in general or ones with Terumi. Terumi combos are the most disturbingly easy combos in the entire game. There's ways to get almost all of his moves in a combo and some supers do like 20 hits. Kokonoe combos can get high up there but are harder to pull off because of the timing needed.
Just combos generally. Can never keep up the timing that long.

I do.....marginally OK with some D string inputs but not sure what else I can do.
Do those even exist?
Probably not ;_;
So I caved and bought CP after months of messing around with the Japanese copy at local fighting game meetups. I was originally excited about Izayoi, but have now instead decided to pick back up Litchi, my old CT main. As distinct as 'Yoi is, playing a character with hoverdashes made my brain revert into I-No/Guilty Gear mode, which doesn't really translate all that well, what with the character and system-mechanic differences. Figured it'd be better to try a character my brain won't confuse for anyone in GG.
But yeah, Litchi's combos seem fine and fun so far; although, I still have to figure out what to do after her Overdrive > OD All Green when I don't have high health. No clue how my neutral game and pressure are going to be with this character though. I'll throw myself to the wolves at a Thursday night meetup and see how it goes.

Who do you use?
How good are you at doing the down gunshot dash cancel follow up
Tager. Been trying Makoto, Bullet and Azrael, but I always come back to Tager which is a lot slower and do more damage the times I actually do hit. Only problem is right now I cant do anything that involves me jumping, me and air combos do not combine. Feels like there is a superhuman timing and finger dexterity (my left thumb do not wanna work with me in combos) required to pull those off.

Noel has a gunshot move she does when opponents are knocked down she can dash cancel it to get extensions.I don't know what that is
Practice makes perfect. With Tager you need to learn his reset stuff. Which should be up your alley since his combos are generally short.

I don't know what that is
It's Silencer, 44B or C (down>down>B or C).
Dash cancel (66 or forward>forward>) has a lot of leeway, the only thing you have to watch out for is timing the 44C (if you are using it to pick up) because if you input it when they're not low enough you won't get anything.
44 =/= down. I assumed you made a mistake and mean 22.

...well that story mode ending sure feels like a much more impactful cliffhanger when I can actually understand what's going on

I got the first part to Karst already in PM it's super long so I put it in PM. I'm working on character bio's and stuff now trying to get all the core characters done but I've been stressed out with life stuff the last few days.
Part 1 was terminology and core things of the universe
Part 2 is going to be character bios/break downs
Part 3 is the story so far
But yes play the story in CSE. Then jump to CP after. CSE covers CT and CS.

I'm still shit but I'm learning quite a bit. I really need to stop chicken blocking unless I'm gonna use barrier guard.
