Street Fighter X Tekken |OT| Truly, truly outrageous~

IntelliHeath

As in "Heathcliff"
I have a question regard with special collection gems. What is special about it since we are getting them from DLC right? (or is it better than any dlc gem?)

apologized if i bump it again. I need to know the answer to decide if I should buy it special collection or just regular.

It's just an instrumental version of indestructible, obviously you would like it if you liked the full song.

I did love both. I also loved Overpass stage music, Africa stage music, Balrog theme, Cody theme, Gen theme, and a few others too.

Ryu look like an absolute monster in this game. :D I don't want to play him, but fuck...

I was trying to play a Juri/Bison team online but was losing constantly. I switched to Ryu/Bison, without having previously touched Ryu in this game, and started annihilating people with mostly just Ryu. I don't wanna play Ryu =(

I'm having a tough time with Bison right now, even though he seems good to me. You can't really open people up that well with him, so I'm finding myself just blocking and countering. But with these Tekken characters I have to block these long high/low strings that do a lot of damage if I screw it up. I think I need to get better at footsies to play him effectively. Also, it is screwing me up when I'm down-back charging on my opponents wakeup and then he just tech rolls to the other side and I lose my charge.
 
I'd rather they cheat like this than give us the crap music that was in SFIV.
To be fair, there's some nice music in 4. It's just that it gets set aside when most of the match switches into the universally shitty dramatic variants of the music when someone's low on life or when ultras are stocked.

Uh-oh, now I gotta choose between this masterpiece and Wakamoto?!

One of the hardest decisions of my life. To be perfectly honest, I might just have everyone use their english voices. Capcpom seems to have decent voice acting this time. Juri's voice doesn't make we sick to my stomach anymore.

The Special Edition comes with 4 gem packs. 3 (World Warrior, Lighting Legs and Iron Curtain) of them my guess will come out later as DLC because those are the retailer exclusives (Best Buy, Amazon and Gamestop). The Special Edition exclusive gem pack is King of Iron Fist.

My guess for $10 more for the Special Edition makes sense because you get all those packs plus the other stuff. Who knows how much DLC is going to cost (the rumor is $3 each).

I earlier said that some of the music reminds me a lot of CPS2 era capcom stuff, and when I said that I definitely had the Mad Gear Hideout tracks (all of them) in mind.

Round 1 is a remix of Rolento's alpha 2 theme, so that's kinda cheating. Actually, I think they're all remixes of FF/Alpha tracks. Super cheating.

Whoa is that the subway stage theme? Nice.

I'd rather they cheat like this than give us the crap music that was in SFIV.

If you mean the stage themes and not the character themes: Solar Eclipse Africa, Drive In, Snowy Railyard, and Volcano were great.

EDIT: How is this guy throwing out sonic booms and flash kicks that fast?

I'd think charge while comboing, but maybe it's a shortcut thing?

Some text extracted from the game, contains gems and system text explaining costumes

http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=4YD4pQGD
http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=8szYvb7S

There are SF only gems and Tekken only Gems

A list of Grab Packs. Each Grab Pack contains costumes for several characters.\n\u203b Please be careful not to purchase the same costume multiple times.

I'm confused, are costume packs a trading card random thing?

113 ('ID_GMC_NAM_0170', u'Assault Extend Lv. 1')
114 ('ID_GMC_NAM_0171', u'Assault Extend Lv. 2')
115 ('ID_GMC_NAM_0172', u'Pandora Extend Lv. 1')
116 ('ID_GMC_NAM_0173', u'Pandora Extend Lv. 2')
117 ('ID_GMC_NAM_0174', u'Air Combo Assist Lv. 1')
118 ('ID_GMC_NAM_0175', u'Air Combo Assist Lv. 2')
119 ('ID_GMC_NAM_0176', u'Air Combo Defense Lv. 1')
120 ('ID_GMC_NAM_0177', u'Air Combo Defense Lv. 2')

Cross Assault timer extend gems, Pandora timer extend gems, Air Combo enhancing gems

132 ('ID_GMC_NAM_1487', u'In Cross Assault, your CPU partner increases the damage by 30%, and CPU becomes stronger.')

Gems for making the Cross Assault CPU a higher difficulty level LOL

That isn't particularly fast, He's holding back righter after throwing his booms and beings pressing his normals(while holding back) in turn linking it from said normals.

Actually if you charge back then do forward, back + punch you can start charging for your second boom before the first one even comes out.

So many characters I want to play.

Yea I know, I thought that's what I typed, thx for pointing that out though..
 
Let us never forget where this all began

Man...when I was first watching that...

I was so disgusted.

Tekken? Ew gross, where's SFvsMk, all the Tekken cast sucks

All the SF cast sucks too, since it's a crossover, they'll cut the SF roster down to only the SSF2T cast + Sakura Dan and Akuma

Why does it look worse than SF4? It's like those first screens they showed

A tag game? Bleh

And now I am very hyped for it and only want to use Tekken characters. And they added a graphic stylization and added some surprising non-classic roster choices.
