I stand corrected then. Maybe it was the Vita version? I swear I read that BBCP lacked story mode Japanese voices somewhere. Anyways.

I think BBCP on Vita had only English. Might be a filesize issue there though.

Oh I dodged the Vita version because I bought BBCS and it had shitty audio compression and horrible load times. Never again.

a glorious place where we love you, but we arent going to fucking tell you!
There's no ideal speed for a specific game. Just don't be on wireless or have bad upload speeds of 2 or something.
I feel like Rise's actually more straight forward than I expected her to be. To me, Die-chan's Rise was alright. I don't think he really researched the character much and just wanted to put on a show and land awakening supers.
A sad world we live in.

Play the chapter prior to the battle with
H-N-K, tell Sho it's the power of solitude.
Yes, it does still work.
I did that and it's still at 94%.
You mean finishing P3 story will give the remaining 6%?
If you haven't finished Episode P3, you cannot finish Episode P4.

Exactly as Fluxwave says, the true ending won't trigger until you finish Episode P3.

Her 236A? It might be crossing up. I know some anti-air combos have it hitting behind you so you can continue the combo. I haven't played her much but it could be possible that the j.C gets her in deep enough that the followup hits behind you.

Damn, they really nailed Adachi all his in game voice stuff is great and his animations are a great mix of goofy and brutal.
Yeah. In general, I think all of the characters are animated and designed very faithfully to who the characters were in the RPGs. I've played as Adachi the most just because he's awesome. They gave him a gun, yet the only attack that has him use it doesn't have him directly shoot the opponent; just like in the games/anime. My favorite line of his is definitely this one; the delivery is perfect:

Mr. Bosh is an amazing VA. Great how he can pull off such opposites like Yu and Adachi.
Mbps. Megabits per second.
I'm still trying to figure out how you're supposed to use that in an actual match since it takes... what.... 60 frames before it even shows up/starts to charge? Seems like a situational thing to start charging up. I'm not sure how that helps "new players" in regards to pulling things easier. *shrug*
Try using a wired connection. If your connection disconnects even once, you won't know the download was corrupted until after you try to install it. Happened to me when Sleeping Dogs was a PS+ title.
Definitely not Yukari, but a lot of her combos are actually pretty timing dependent, and utilizing her notes at midscreen and other tools like Arrow Rain and 5D (hold) make her at least less straight forward than at least the Sho's.
I'm not sure we're talking about the same matches. I mean his matches vs Xie and Guynam, and he hardly ever went for the Awakening super. I was actually mainly thinking of how he'd use Rise's notes at midscreen to help deal with Minazuki's range.

I really hope he somehow makes it into the next arena game but the odds of that happening are probably low.

Reasons.. yeah reasons ..i'm more annoyed that there was no way to know before and the fact that i BOUGHT BBCP vita and got a similar fate .. i'm pissed off But i've learnt my lesson. I didn't want to import because i usually support releases that i find satisfactory and i thought this was one. Otherwise i would have got the JP version ( Japanese text is no problem for me )
I was under the impression that she was a obvious tsundere so her attitude is nothing but normal. Kinda the point of her character IMO
BBCP Vita had japaneses voices in every mode except story.. Again i can understand the size reason for vita but i won't understand when the PS3 game of P4AU is 12gb
I just don't like how half -assed it feels.
I have voices for arcade but not for story ? how does that make sense ? We're obviously past the legal issues of the cost/technical issues that we had as escuses before.
Anyway.I'll just play story with the voice volume at 0. i just can't stand it
Ah, I've yet to see those. I only saw the TGS round robin exhibition where he was kinda just messing around.
I'll have to check those out then.

Yeah but her it's not like her English voice doesn't carry that over for her, I vastly prefer it over her JP voice.
I never understood Tsunderes and how they are appealing anyways 
Did you play P3/P4 in Japanese? Usually this has something to do with first exposure, like how I just cannot play P4 in Japanese, aside from Teddie/Rise, I played P4 with English, voice, and it took me a long time for me to adjust for P3's dub, especially with the fact that P3's dub has it's odd spots. Fuuka, Ken etc.

That explains a lot.
I played the original P4A in Japanse for the P3 cast, and then decided having Rise and Teddie is not worth it.
I play Liz in Japanese from time to time for that sexy Sawashiro voice.

Yes, the thing is that the cardboard box doesn't have a solid frame and there is a lot of room for the box to get squished, I remember when I got FF XIII-2's Xbox BB special with the novella there is a cardboard strip in there to prevent the box from getting squished/collapsing.
So apparently Amazon.ca shipped this to me without telling me; when I got their shipping confirmation, the delivery estimate was for today. I went down to check my mailbox and the game was already there. Glad it's here, at least.
Already regret opening that inflatable Teddie, it reeks of plastic! Think I'm just going to toss him into my closet.

The hop cancel on Adachi's 2C is so cool. It gives him a lot of nice options off of a juggle.
I can see why he can't combo into his sweep on a standing opponent now. His pressure game is already crazy.

Yeah, his pressure is pretty scary. Especially on matchups that let him get away with things like Ziodyne.
Speaking of the sweep, be careful to not autopilot and gatling into sweep. It's not a valid blockstring, so I just DP everytime people try it.

Yeah I try to use the sweep sparingly. I like to use 2B > j.C a lot but I need to work on timing it so I can combo the 5B after on crouching opponents.

Yeah I was one of those people. UPS guy just saw me as I was about to leave down my apartment building hallway and asked if I ordered a package from Amazon and what my name was. Definitely the strangest shipping problem I've had from Amazon,ca
Though the first thing I did was try to change all voices into Japanese because I want my Japanese Mitsuru and Margaret god damn it but... So the battles are now in Japanese, but everything else is in forced English...? This is the strangest rendition of 'dual audio' I've ever seen. I really thought EVERYTHING with voices would be in Japanese like, you know, Blazblue and the original Persona 4 Arena.

IIRC when Atlus was doing those P4AU twitch streams, they avoided to comment on the dual audio feature, which made people suspicious.
I think this is to mostly curb importing due to Atlus, instead of the licensing issues for the Japanse audio.
Remember the original P4A had a region lock, but ultimax is region free.

So Amazon still hasn't shipped my copy. It's been on "preparing to ship" for 48 hours at least now. I'm not in any rush to get the game but this is getting a little frustrating. I've never had this problem before.

It's amazing to me how much different this feels than blazblue to me. I never got anywhere with the first p4a, just grabbed it since I love asw, then it got me to play p4 which became an instant favorite to me, and now I'm paying more attention to this one. I'm still terrible but having so much fun

It's such a cop out decision. The only reason why they removed region locking entirely is because P4A got a bad rep with being one of like 4 games to be region locked on PS3, a system which is not region locked. Then they went "OH IT'S NOT REGION LOCKED GUYS!" but then at the same time they still technically region locked it by language. From my understanding the Japanese version has real full dual audio but only Japanese text? I can't wait for the EU version to have full English and Japanese text and audio options somehow.
I'm fine with the dub, I have issues with a lot of the characters voices in both Japanese (I get why KugiRie voices Rise. I'm just not a fan of her sometimes) and Atlus's insistence that the honorifics stay in the English dub. It's not even that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things. It's just really disappointing that Atlus would pull this. The game is still basically region locked just not down to the hardware or software, but in the language options.
That being said it's incredibly satisfying to play as Adachi. I tried both versions of Sho and I think I might start getting used to the persona version. I mained Yosuke in Arena and some of the changes are really interesting. Like how the kunai storm doesn't launch people into the air anymore. A lot of the stuff I used in Arena still works in Ultimax with some minor changes. In fact I think I can do more with them now. This is coming from someone who is shit at video games though.
Or because ownership changed from Index to Sega?
Man... already getting tired of people avoiding me on ranked.
