Maxi confirmed brehs

Can't wait to mash buttons and piss people off with my nun-chuks online for the week or two everybody plays that game before its dropped

Fuck Maxi. Who do I have to pay to get Harada to retcon that shit and get Li Long back in the game to kick his ass?
 
I was just going to say that some of the biggest competitive games played these days spawned off of mods.

There is not a single thing wrong with making a competitive community around a game mod. People play whatever they like... mod or not.

There is nothing wrong with the Smash community playing Project M competitively. It's really on the game developers (ie. Nintendo) to do something about it. Put out a better god damn product than Project M, ignore it completely or order a C&D against it. Gamers will do what they gotta do.


Item economy introduced in August 2013 had a significant impact on the game's popularity. Valve even cited this as a reason.

So literally what Infaanator said... they put Hats in CS and it went big.

Everybody I know who has the game has cited they've paid back the price in selling skins they got

With respect to art, at least the shitty hit effects might be gone, but you can't really tell decisively from the PDF. Definitely more particles.

If you're referencing to the red smudges, then yes, I hope they're gone.

If you're referring to the other character-specific hit effects, then hell no.

Capoeira spam was done when they introduced universal low parries in TTT1.

I wonder if they made changes to the wake up and movement systems like they said they would.


What does Bound have to do with anything? I stated what the game is adding (Ultras and armored moves) and what it's retaining (same art style/presentation) then added that this game will not be pulling in the casuals.

You're having some intense reactions despite not having seen gameplay. Just hold the phone man. Wait for gameplay.

You're worrying about the core mechanics being unchanged when we just leaned about 2 potentially game changing additions on top of whatever else could be tweaked.

Combo system could be fully revamped and sidestep taken out for all we know at this point (unlikely, just trying to make a point). Wait until we see it action before making silly claims.

T4 introduced a significant change in character art and style. They then changed it with T5. Since T5 the art style has remained pretty much the same. I was expected some more radical changes in character designs but I guess not.
.

I think it could definitely change the art style, I feel as though their art style is a weird balancing act they try to maintain.

I would like insane attack effects and stuff like that though,

Can't tell much from small screens but if it is only 50% visual quality then I expect some really impressive stuff, it already looks great to me.

Focus attacks like roman cancels, crumple stuns or just armoured moves?

Think of them more as Uncancellable Red focus attacks. They can take in as many hits as possible. Unknown if there are any armor breaking moves or not.

They are just hyper armor moves as in they can take an infinite number of hits.

Also Bound is still in the game but they removed some moves that used to Bound (mostly just made it so that those moves don't Bound anymore). Probably want to make it easier for casuals to not be confused about which Bound move to use for combos.

Tekken 7: Fireworks, the game.

Gotta use that Unreal Engine 4.

I'm REALLY happy with the visual changes they've made.

Instead of making ugly red smudges again, they've turned them into amazing looking sparks. All those particle effects.
 
So how do we feel about Ultras in Tekken?

Hella particles in that new tekken

KI started a trend

its for that anime effect, no one can deny its grasp it has on fighting games now.

I'm not dedicated enough in anything to argue with myself :(

dedication comes from practice padawon, push yourself to your extremes and succeed!
