Woah man, talking shit about King Crimson is a one way road to the graveyard.
Also the ugliest stand is the High Priestess

By time I have enough points to get CMoon, I pretty much have more than enough meter to go straight to Made In Heaven. So there's that option!
Thanks for the tips on CM's status effect, it is indeed poison.
You can not seriously think this looks good?
That second face stares into my soul...
He just wants people to understand him

King Crimson can escape combos with half a meter bar, that's pretty thug

You have to buy upgrades for stands?

Nah. Pucci has to use a move to pull out Green Baby and say 13 or so words that stack in the match and then it upgrades. Then he has to use his GHA for MiH.
imagine the shitstorm if you could do that
How powerful is made in heaven?

Alongside Killer Queen and Soft & Wet he's my fave stand design. And he's perfect for Diavolo.
If you haven't seen footage, Made In Heaven changes the stage background and makes the opponent move in slow motion. Moves that normally wouldn't combo in 'regular time' now combo in slow motion mode, since there is more hitstun. The 'balance' seems to be that Pucci can only do a combo with 7 hits before you can't hit them anymore, but it can basically be 7 hits of any available move due to the prolonged hitstun.
So, 7 of his 'Hadoken' discs, 7 jumping heavy attacks, etc. If one hits, it's pretty much guaranteed that they'll all connect. He can also teleport around, though Pucci can't attack directly out of a teleport--his feet have to hit the ground first. If you're dextrous enough you can use it in combos to cross up and just be stylish.
MIH mode basically just seems to be a stylish way to end the game. Especially if the opponent is still under the effects of White Snake's 'Silence' status effect, I can see it being extremely annoying for the other guy. There are probably ways for other characters with time abilities to mitigate the effects, but I haven't experimented with it yet.
Edit, to clarify, especially if one hasn't seen it: You access Pucci's Made In Heaven Stand by doing the GHA in CMoon Stand mode. You can only GHA when in CMoon mode. The GHA is not a direct attack (in fact it works best if you activate it when the opponent is far away or disabled--they can interrupt the transformation), but permanently changes the physics of the match as described above.

Urg, battery recharges in campaign mode now take 20 minutes instead of 5... I'll also be on a holiday for 2 weeks without internet, so I won't be able to play campaign mode anymore for a while :'-(

Is campaign mode pretty easy to understand without reading japanese?
If its the only way to get costumes I want to do it I guess

Well, pretty much. You can just press the top choice all the time, except when there are characters coming with special options, where you can choose if you want to spends charge and get some effect or to keep your charge.

Yeah, it's not that complicated. There are some translation guides for this mode and all it really comes down to is fighting normal CPUs and Boss CPU. Winning against a boss CPU depletes part of his health bar, and when you deplete the whole bar you unlock costumes and alt colors.

I noticed that earlier and thought it was total bullshit.
I see, thanks. I've been avoiding seeing videos later because I wanted to explore the characters myself and be surprised by the animation while playing.

Apparently the 5 minute recharges were only for the opening weekend... 20 minutes is torture.

I take back the good things I said about Campaign. This 20 minute recharge is awful.

Hail, peons, for I have come as ambassador from the great and bountiful Blueberry Butt Explosion
Yep, and it's amazing. Did it a bunch to a buddy of mine two days ago, and it pissed him off to no end, lol
He's crazy awesome. I love playing with him. It's hard to ignore Diavolo and Giorno, though. Especially since Giorno gets Requiem as his GHA.
This is how the GHAs work for Giorno and Cars as well.
shaddup. And yes

GREAT! We'll have to play. Hopefully it comes in within the next few days.

Looks like ASB is a big killer queen bomb in japan, 30% price cut on amazon and 50% price cut on the first store.

Unfortunate, but unsurprising given the throwaway story mode. Even Phantom Blood (shudder) did better there.
Can't give Jojo fans a terrible story mode. The fighting itself is good though, so hopefully they make some improvements and come back strong instead of giving up on the license.

If the current Media Create thread is anything to go by, it's the top selling game of this recent week.
So is CC2 just REALLY trying to make it up to people? This might mean they will definitely push out patches faster.

It should be, it's Jojo! I think the fact that they only showed CPU battles and none of the story mode made it easy to sell, and the gap between what people were hoping for and what they got are the cause of those Amazon 1-stars.

GTAV can wait, it'll sell millions whether you buy it or not, plus it's available for cheap from the links in a post above.
Not to sound anti-GTAV, it does have some cool stuff like the Online mode and the characters are quite interesting, but in the end...well it's only fair to leave it up to you, I'd say you'll get your enjoyment from either game.
I'm getting GTAV regardless. What concerns me the most is having a backlog. With Xillia only half-way done and GTAV coming out soon, I'll be playing too many games at once. I found a place where I can get a HDK PSN card for 68 bucks, which is probably the cheapest I'll be able to get this game. I think I'll let the netcode be the deciding factor. How is it?
