I don't think its called aegis reflector, he is just calling it that because it resembles urien's aegis in 3s.
I could be wrong though, thought it was like bufu something
we could play now?

Are you on 360 and suck? I'm on 360 and I really fucking suck right now. And my fear is that playing anybody who knows what they're doing will just crush me and make me want to quit. So I better stick with low tier GAF. I'm still in the process of learning to hit the right buttons and move around the stage correctly, that's how ass I am right now.
No, that's actually Makoto.
She does Makoto
Ah, okay. I knew she sounded familiar.
Yeah, keep away and wait for the hard knock down and then rush in and then get back out.

Well, Ive yet to play it but I hear that
they ARE special agents.
Hehe, I got a kick out of Chie making fun of him for it.
Man... stuck at work right now, want to go home and play.
Watch the demonstration. The first crescent has to be input as low to the ground as possible and the ones after have to be input extremely quickly.

gg to onem1c. I need to stop pressing 6C in the combo because it doesn't combo
I've been watching the Demonstration and I'm trying to copy it as close as possible. My second Crescent Slash never connects and I'm inputting my commands as fast as possible.
Make sure to reset it after each try with select button so you get the same spacing everytime, or try putting the CPU in the corner. I don't think the different button versions do anything different for the CS, but if they do make sure you are doing the one it prompts on the screen.
I just did it hella fast, and made sure the first one hit low though. Got it on my third try.

Story mode ending:
Does anyone recognize the hacker's voice? That cliffhanger ending, it really does set up Persona 5, doesn't it?
Got it! Thanks for the help. Also, how do you get higher in the middle of air combos? I can't seem to finish some of these combos without falling out of range.
Alright, alright, I'm at a little bit of an impasse.
Not sure what I should focus on, this is my first time playing a fighting game besides just mashing (or at least, trying not to). Should I focus on just using normals/specials and learning the game by playing matches, or should I be in training mode trying to learn how to combo? I really can't get the timing down for a lot of the combos I'm seeing online, I can only do something like 2B>5B>5C>214D for Narukami and I can never pull it off in a match.
Just want to figure out what to focus my time on so I can become better.

I doubt that would be a Persona 5. I bet you it'll be some Arena 2 or something.
EDIT: Forgot tags...sorry....
Depends on which trial you are doing, but I'm guessing it's one of his Jump B, down + B, then jump B, into another down +B ?
All you do is when you get the down + B to hit is double tap up quick so you perform another jump in the air.

Yukiko is pretty awesome.
Although i have been saying with almost everyone after beating their arcade mode.
But still might be the first zoner character that I can sort of use.
Then again the A.I tends to run into shit.

Everyone either plays Chie or Yukiko, it's driving me crazy!
gg, I was fucking up my dash the entire set. I really have to practice dashing and airdashing on the fly. Would have played longer but I was just resorting to stupidness instead of trying to practice my combos. Something about your player match win ratio being recorded makes me want to focus on winning rather than practicing strategies and combos in friendlies. I finally got my j.D combo I've been practicing since this morning and the 2AAAxxcoup. Now for some corner and 5D combos.

They seem pretty easy to grasp. Chie especially.
It may seem like they are just mashing but her autocombo can lead into some tricky shit.
and with DP like Yu's taking health, flowcharters have to go elsewhere lol.
The road to getting good at anything is a long one and will require patience plus tons of time on your end to put into it.
You have so much to cover to learn that there's really no wrong way to go about it. If you are using a controller, first thing I would check is how consistent your execution is. Can you do 50 quarter circle foward + button in a row without missing one to make the move come out for your character? On both sides of the screen? If so, then you're probably up to snuff on execution. If you suck and can only do like 4 then the 5th is botched, then it might be time to just work in training mode on getting consistent on just QCF motions, or hell if you're serious, invest in an arcade stick.
Some solid things to do to get better:
Learn to block properly. This means cross ups, high lows, etc. There's no reason to know solid combos if you can never pull them off since you are always getting opened up to be destroyed.
Learn 1-2 simple, yet effective combos that you can use as your go to's whenever you confirm a hit on someone. If right now that's AAAAAA then fine, go for it.
Learn other characters and what they are capable of. If you've never fought a Labrys, then how can you defeat one in a fight? A good work around is to just go into the training mode or challenge mode with each character and do some of the trials just to see how their moves work so you have a better knowledge of what an opponent is doing in the fight with that character.
Practice,practice,practice. If you want to do ranked for the practice go for it. Private matches? Do that. Local fight? Works too. You just need to be taking the information you will be gathering and put it to use.
Above all don't get flustered about losing. I probably lost 200 matches in a row in SF4 until I had a miracle break through to get my first win. It takes work.
phew, home from work and ready to grind.
I've been thinking about it all day, and decided that I'll focus mostly on Yukiko right now, but also try to get good with Yosuke so I have an option if someone is an expert at wrecking zoners.
hit me up with an invite if anybody has a lobby goin on

Naoto's is especially terrible since you still need to move around and those targets can still fade in on top of you.
I'm pretty sure if you dont move it doesn't kill you. Don't jump back. It's bad idea.

I also didn't have my pressure down =( left a lot of holes where you could 2a my persona.
edit
played a bit online (hypocrite) and I think yukiko is in disadvantage against mitsu and slab. Slab I want to say is like 7-3 since slab can just use persona skills all day without fear of a break really. Mitsu is more 6-4/5.5-4.5 due to her range and speed of her pokes. Also mitsu gets in for free with coup since yukiko can't seem to punish it on block.
Correct, I think it's "crouch and don't move." It's a powerful IK if you don't know what you're doing against it, but it's basically neutered after that.
Akihiko's isn't bad either, it just has to draw you into that globe. If you have a range attack, hit him and he'll stop the attack. (Or simply get the hell away from the globe)

I just won online with Yukiko and I feel bad about it.
fans are the new icecars

Thanks. I have a stick because I've tried to play SF4 and Marvel before, but I'm really enjoying this game a lot more than I did those two already. I can beat some lower ranked players because I have an idea of how I'm supposed to play the game, but my execution to do that just isn't up to par. I am relying on autocombo a lot though, haha. I think I'll stick with that and the really basic 2B combo I can do in training mode because 2B is a great move for Narukami and I find myself connecting with B a lot more than A.
Would you suggest playing against the computer and just practicing blocking?
You know nothing about my lightning car spam.

I honestly don't think fans are what make yukiko annoying to fight. Its more like the pressure she can keep on you with her persona while from mid screen.
Nope. Not normal. Are you checking your inputs in training mode? Make sure you're actually hitting everything when you do the motion.
"God's Beard!"

You probably can, but the ranges are weird, and you have to absolutely hit the B before they land.
Just pushed it again, you can finish it with a 2B after the last Coup Droit instead of 2A because you hit them higher out of the ice. 3732 damage.

Yeah I'm not good/smart enough to get tat part of this game going yet but yeah some tricky/awesome stuff can come from that.
Yukiko can kick your ass for free....and not even move.
