I'm not sure if he's following the list. Downloading now. Will go to bed and play tomorrow morning.



He just asked for my ID. Redeem the code on a US account. It wouldn't work on my irish one.

thanks for adding me broham!
 
Were you on a list? Because I never asked to be on a list...

But I haven't received a code from Click. :(

I feel your pain, I haven't received a code either. But I'm hoping that I will at least get a code at some point of the beta. I wouldn't be surprised if a large majority of the list ends up getting in. :)

Believe.

A lot of people on the list have already gotten in, it's just that so many more people are being added.

Of course, when I added myself to the list I was in the late 60s and now I'm actually 36 so I'm not denying that the list is going down.
 
I have a feeling that watching 1v1 of this game is going to be a lot more fun than watching Melee for example, just because there are actual combos and not just wavedashing hijinks. That one Kratos combo gif makes me want to see what crazy stuff will be in the full game.

I have had some 1 on 1 time with enemies, and my god, it really is amazing. It's a lot of blocking, dodging, finding the open, tricking your opponent, getting in combos, it's fantastically fast, smooth, and slick.

I am telling u guys, 1v1 is what FGC calls "Hype"

2 v 2 is also going to be great, and FFA with modes like VIP (where u have to kill the VIP for extra points) is going to be awesome

I really do think the 1 on 1 has some good legs.


EDIT: If ever there are Gaffers in a game together, let's have a truce and focus on a 1v1, just to see how intense it can get
 
I asked earlier in the thread but it wasn't addressed because there was some other excitement going on. However, do you guys in the Beta think that if the invisibility of Sly was replaced with the same block and evade as other characters that would be enough to balance the character? Is that something folks would be okay with?

1v1 is indeed going to be very intense. Especially if you can change up the rules to limit it to level 3 (or maybe level 1?) supers only, or whatever else might make it more interesting.

As much fun as I'm having with the beta, I do see myself sticking mostly to 2v2 and 1v1 as far as pure fighting is concerned. Stuff like capture the flag is probably going to be sweet as well.
 
Clockw0rk sent me a code! I had to set up a US account because it wouldn't work on my UK one, but I'm downloading the beta right now. Removing myself from the list...

I'm sure that "limiting which supers you can use" thing will be in. But I can already see me and my friend playing locally and making up rules on all sorts of things haha. And I secretly like when the beta glitches and we get to play in a Pseudo 1 v 1 game. The blocking and dodging and looking for openings is an intense blast.
 
I know you are lurking, while you're here drop a code in my box and tell me via PM Kat is in the game....I won't tell.




'splain?

Think he means the multiplier of collecting AP orbs


As for Sly, I dont mind his invisibility, but I really do think it should be temporary, for maybe 15 or so seconds before having a cooldown. Or, the simplest solution, adjust his super 1/meter gain.
 
Ask again, would this solve Sly's balance?

I don't find Sly particularly unbalanced... but maybe I just haven't played a very good one.

I think his lack of blocking will be a much bigger weakness in 1v1.
 
I think it would be better if either there was a timer for the invisibility, or it starts draining AP after a while like someone suggested earlier. I wouldn't want them to take it out fully because it is unique to the character.

I wouldn't mind that either-- losing AP. He also has the ability to steal AP with normal moves, so it'd be a good balance. Or maybe, if he gets hit while invisible, he suffers a consequence of having to have to go through a cool down. Lots of way to tweak Sly.


I said before Parappa was low tier, but I'm quite enjoying him now that I discovered his aerial moves. I still think his super 2 needs to be slightly longer, since Fat Princess has a better Super 2. Parappa's Super 3 doesn't feel worth getting to me, maybe it's just me, but it seems easier to chain his super 2's


And congrats, acquiescence, I hope u like it :)

don't remove it but a timer something, in fact I'll take a better outline because on the background of some levels that asshole just straight up disappears and when nobody can see you why would you need to block?

Parappa is definitely lower tier but I still love the dude. And yeah the time it takes to get his level 3 makes it almost meaningless but I always rap along to it if I do it or if somebody else does it.
His lvl 2 definitely needs a few more seconds to make him more competitive, plus to make up for the fact his lvl 3 is capped.
 
Cool thanks for the impressions, sounds like Sly is a character that could...sneak...up on ya and just have to pay a little more attention. That sly thief.

Well if they come through with their word, and if the leaks are any hint, thank SuperGods for a myriad of customization options. I think they practically gave us the toolbox to really tweak balance, at least for offline/party play.

I think Fat Princess gains a level 2 super too quickly. Every game I've had against her she'd use that damn chicken like three times in a row and rack up a crazy amount of kills.
 
Im terrible at combos with him but my go to combo is mic pull > Neu Square. lmao thats it.

Ha, use his aerial moves, and direction + circle. Very good moves.


The ones I've been using were featured in superbot's combo video haha.
Parappa is my 2nd favorite behind Radec :D

Me too! Radec is great, I do like him a lot, and I notice a lot of enemies go after u immediatley now if u spam. Parappa is my little underdog (pun intended), though I just disscovered the awesomeness of Sweet Tooth
 
Congratulations on getting a code! I hope you enjoy the beta. :)

Thanks man. I only played a couple of matches as PaRappa so far, but I can already tell it's great fun.

Problem is - I think PaRappa's level 3 destroys the connection or glitches things up.

I think it's telling that everyone was calling Sweet Tooth underpowered in the beginning, and now some people are calling him overpowered.

Shit's deep.

I think its clear that none of the 6 characters in beta is really underpowered. Everyone has something great going for them. Only balance issue that irks me is Slys fuckin lvl 1 that makes him lil above others. I dunno how he will fare in 1on1 since there invisibility is not nearly as good and blockin might be more used.

If I had to at gunpoint choose 1 underpowered character it wouldn't be Sweet Tooth. More likely Parappa and even he is very good. Parappas lvl 1 is way better than people are saying imo.
 
You haven't seen glitch until you watch someone do Sly's lvl 3.

I have, first match! Lol, it borked the camera. Thankfully it was near the end so it wasn't too much of a problem.

I know this is a beta, but geeeez I've played four matches now and I've only properly completed 1 of them.
