So you guys know how you can hold the button when you do 214L/M/H with Joseph to make the projectile come back to him? If you puttstun cancel as you throw it, it will still fly back if you hold it. That will open up some cool combos with him.

he's a famitsu writer
Joseph's jump heavy is pretty similar to Young Joseph's jump heavy in the 2D Capcom game, in that it has a great hitbox, crosses up, starts a combo, and is active for a long time. The 2D version stayed active for five years though, and could be used with three different jump arcs.
Anyone want to give their thoughts on a tier list thus far? What characters have the best mixups, safe blockstrings, good combo potential, good keepaway etc.
I don't have the game but judging from what I've seen;
Caesar, Joseph, DIO, Jolyne and Wham look really solid. Wham seems to have unsafe blockstrings but really good damage potential. I've seen alot of reversal GHA from Wham players, don't know how safe they are but it seems to hit really often and do crazy damage.

Didn't play the game much (plus I didn't even touch half the characters, let alone understand them) but Jonathon seems solid, though I have no idea if that matters in a game like this.
Also, how do you unlock Kira? I entered the DLC code in the JPN store and downloaded him but he doesn't appear in the character select screen.

Kakyoin I feel is the best zoner in the game.
People sleeping on him online too, which is surprising because not only is he a popular character, but I feel his playstyle would really thrive in a game with this kind of netcode
He and Jolyne are my favorites atm though so maybe I'm biased.(I also think Jolyne is the best character in the game period)
Everyone seems to be sticking to the male jojos and the bosses online. I see alot of Josephs because it's easy to combo off his jump ins into rekka into super.(that and the anime probably)

It's early but I'd probably say Stand users have better mixups and combo potential by default just because of the stand rush mechanic. The fact that it takes so little meter means they can keep using it too.
Can't really say who the best characters are as I've only played a little with my friends. Diavolo seems really strong at the moment though.

Like all character unlocks in the game - you have to beat his chapter. Which in this case is Part 4 Ex Mission 3.
Some "not so dumb" tier list a friend stumbled upon on japanese boards:
He'll probably get nerfed in 2 days, though...
Hopefully. ^^
I've decided to main DIO: he has nearly everything a character can want in this game, and his combos and mix-ups can be quite fun to do.
He'll probably get nerfed in 2 days, though...
He'll be much less of a strong character once they get rid of his infinite.
Hopefully. ^^

I'd love if someone could elaborate on that list. I know literally nothing about Narnancia and Shigechi
and if Diavolo is so high because of his infinite why is Valentine bottom? Time skip?

Yeah I figure they'll probably nerf his j.H.
No idea about Fatty, but I'm assuming Narancia's high up because he can do this. Apparently he can stand rush one of his moves without the stand being on.

I guess I should follow the tech in this game closer
Seems everyone in the game has an infinite to the point where they're irrelevant.
Shame Valentine doesn't have any interesting stuff.
Just rewatched some Kakyoin matches. DAMN.
Emerlald Splash comes out so fast and has amazing durability. Couple that with Hierophant no Kekka's traps and I don't know how non-zoners are supposed to be able to get in. Everytime I saw someone try and jump over the traps they just got hit.
Here's the matches I watched. A bit sloppy but you can see how effective his zoning is and how annoying it is to jump over the traps.
Fatty seems to be top because his loops. I know alot of characters have loops but I haven't seen any that build as much meter as this one not to mention you can start them from a throw. Crazy.
Valentine seems good, don't know why he's so low. His projectile seems to be a part of it, it seems like most characters can just duck it.

He also has two projectile command grabs. one in stand on and one in stand off. on top of the barriers and his fireball, Emerald Splash having alot of durability.
Once I found out about that I picked him up quick! lol.
I guess the reason people don't use him though is explained in the comments. Zoning is still considered lame to most fighting game players.
Because spamming Jotaro Oraora DP and canceling special Oraora into super Oraora is so interesting....
yeah and it takes so long to fire.
Kosaku being bottom is also disappointing. I thought he seemed really interesting with his unblockable setups with air bomb and bomb #1
This turned out to be the problem, I forgot about it.
Sucks that Kira is so low, but I'll try to learn him for now. Nice that Wham is high up.
Hey, everyone loves to Ora Ora
no, that's a pretty dumb list. valentine being E tier for one, the dude has some sweet pressure, nice normals, good AA (important in this game), good damage, etc etc
Y. Kira also shits out damage and has a great oki game. Jonathon has basically all the tools anyone needs in this game outside of a stand for an extended normal range.
it's for combos/block pressure (depending on the character they're forced to crouch the entire time)
you can PC his gun to extend his combos

I still haven't played the game yet, it saddens me since I haven't been able to. But I sure as hell will soon, then I can finally help out with characters.
Just for reference.
Just for reference.
When most others are wasting their time knocking off 1/10 of a bar with knockdown taunts, Kakyoin is busy putting hitboxes on the screen. Definitely been my main from my first time touching the game. Some notes:
- Whiff cancelling means he never has to commit to a 5/2B. If you miss just cancel to 5C.
- Speaking of whiff cancelling, why can't he do more moves in the air? jC to tentacle grab would be so sexy.
- Speaking of 5B, 5B to 2C hard knockdown is so good. Gives you time to get traps set up.
- Need to figure out how to properly incorporate his stand-active stance. His HCB command grab combos into ground spike.
- If somebody gets blown up by both traps, you can also get in a hit afterward too, but not sure how best to do it or if you can keep going if the positioning is right.
- Emerald Splash tracking vertically is so dirty.

I saw earlier someone linked to translation of the main menu? Could someone link me?
Also what's a good spot online to look up move lists translations?

They changed the juggle system a bit and removed infinites. That's about it.
Finding it a bit difficult to do Y. Kira's BNB but this should tone down some of the 15 sec 50%+ life combos.
