The matchmaking in this is the quickest that I can remember in any game!

Online play seems very fluid.

I've unlocked Mewtwo... took a while...

To anyone playing with Garchop, cand you describe how the dig move works? Also, how does it fell while using it? And how useful is it so far?
Click to expand...
I've played a bit of Garchomp. I feel that dig brings you a set distance to the opponent. It can be canceled with R or a jump before they reach them though. If you are too far away it won't be able to reach. Feels really nice to hit and can be great for ducking projectiles. Although it does is pretty unsafe and if it's blocked you'll be getting hit pretty bad.

I'm not great though, so this is just a rookie's take on the move.

Oh and there's like two angles of entering the ground I believe, one from ground and one from the air.

The move list telling you what everything is for feels weird for how novel it is. Why is this the first time I've ever seen this? Also having some starter combos listed as well
Click to expand...
I wonder who's idea that was? I've never seen it in one of Namco's other fighters though I do really like that most have demos of each move built-in to the move list so you know what each move is supposed to do.

Started with Gengar, moved to Charizard. Holy shit is he fun to play. This game is a ton of fun, but the adjustment to the field/duel stuff is still gonna take a bit.

Stuff like Dead or Alive, basically. The stages are dynamic and fun. Comboing into stage hazards is friggin awesome.

...Except those water and ice stages. Low kicks for days.

Yes, DoA is a good example of how to handle stage hazards IMO (at least dimensions was, I haven't played any of the console versions since 3).

I don't think it would bother me that much if her VA wasn't horribly grating

I actually burst out laughing when I heard the first (Green?) League Champion speak. Think he is called Travis or something. Don't even know what accent it is meant to be.

They probably put more money into any one of the stage compositions then the entire english VA budget.

Most will turn it off anyway, but its still downright embarrassing.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
For someone like me who has only enjoyed the fighting series Tekken and SF4 over the last 10 years, do you think this is a must buy?

English VA was likely rushed. It's probably why the Pokemon voices are the Japanese ones, which in this case was probably for the better.

This is me, I played a lot of Tekken tag 2 with friends after school, later got into from super to ultra.

I like this game. Havent played any other fighiting game, besides smash.

Nintendo games are usually totally fine when it comes to VA so I really have no idea what happened here

(I'm assuming Nintendo and not Namdai localized it since they published it)

The more I play, the more hype I get. Like that I get some XP and money for losses, been having some really close rounds. Online has been fast and snappy, next to no lag in most of my matches.

I'm not sure they're all Japanese voices. Sceptile and Blaziken, for example, sound an awful lot like the ORAS animated commercial.

Mewtwo doesn't use any sort of anime voice either. If he did, he'd sound like Smash Bros, but he's got a weird sort of young sounding voice.

I am really, really bad at fighting games that aren't Smash Bros. but this game is insanely fun to me. I want to get good, GAF. I went through the training modes and tutorials, so now I'm just doing single player stuff for a bit.

I've only used my boy Machamp and Gengar so far. Even though the roster looks small, to someone like me who isn't a fighting game veteran, it feels a little daunting!

Can anyone tell me why my hori pokken pad works throughout the game, but when I get to character select, only the wii u gamepad works and I can only pause with the hori pad during game and thats it?

Well I mean that none of them were dubbed over. You can tell by comparing the voices with arcade gameplay and trailers.

Yea, I know. The only voice I really dislike is Mewtwo's, since it's so different from the Mewtwo voices I'm used to. Most of his voices are mature and deep (besides that one movie that I pretend doesn't exist), but this sounds like Keldeo or something.

I managed to get a perfect online. How did that happen?

I wish you couldn't see if your opponent was going to rank up. I've blocked two people so far and I feel really shitty about it.

I wish the training mode had more options. There's one of Gardevoir's projectiles that I hink I can slide under with Weavile, but I can't say for sure because there's no way for me to test it out. i doubt I can find anyone willing to go into local play and just use the same move over and over until I can figure it out.

Did you choose the Hori pad as your battle controller? To make sure you did, go back to the title screen and enter the game again, using only the hori pad this time.

So I just realized that my Pokken controller never shipped which kind of sucks but at the same time realized that when I ordered it Amazon had it priced at $25 instead of $50 :3
Click to expand...
That's a third party seller. Amazon is back order weed but still has it for $25

How is the hori pad? I'm not going to be getting one since I'm not gonna be playing THAT much, but is the Dpad really good or whatever?

Chandelure is fun to play. Netplay seems solid, even from US to Japan. Hopefully, they'll support this with more patches and content.

Loving it so far, much better than I have hoped it to be! hopefully it keeps getting supported and we end up getting an NX version, my only complaint is the poor image/texture quality.
