TEKKEN 7 |OT| How I killed your mother

To put things in perspective. Aris has more viewers than all the other Tekken streamers combined. Except for Max but Max is uh Max level when it comes to CPM. Pun intended.

Its on track to be my most played PS4 title by the end of this month lol! Pure fun :)

Completely agree. It's turned into my "Podcast Game" and I'm having a ton of fun. So far I'm mostly in Treasure, Practice and Customization and I'm going through with different characters that I normally play. I haven't even gotten into the meat of this game yet but it's so time-consuming lol.

Ever play the DOA games? They have animations that apply to pretty much every context you can imagine

Ummmm no not at all, I have my fair share of grievances with it. For example DOA only has 1 generic juggle animation. It looks completely off when you hit an opponent with Sarah's 9+G+K (a move where her heels are smashing downward on the opponent's skull) and the opponent is launched with the exact animation as her 3+K (a move where she's Kicking upward) .

I guess the only thing that was making me not like Bruce was Bruce himself. <3 Josie, well expect for that crying stuff.

I can't believe lobbies don't migrate if the host leaves. It's a god damn nightmare as is trying to get games but whenever the host loses he just leaves.

Only 3 trophies remain: 10 online fights, 1 ranked win and 1 casual win.

If online worked properly at least, the 10 fights would be a no brainer. :(
 
Why do people leave after one fucking fight? It takes so damn long to connect and you win and you gotta quit out and what? You can save the video during loading screens if you're that impressed. I can't learn these new characters and moves and shit if this is what I have to deal with. I don't mind losing, but I want to learn your damn characters!

I dont understand pressure in this game. I know in 2D fighters you usually get +frames after certain normals and specials, so you frametrap them. I feel like at the beginner level, I do better mashing than thinking more critically.
 
The online issues on the ps4 version are starting to really bum me out on this game tbh, I wanna play but everytime I get matched with someone it doesn't connect

I know they have said they are trying to address the issue but its 2017 man these companies have been releasing online enabled games for years its really disheartening to see this and street fighter 5 struggle out the gate when it comes to online play

Dude play "tournament" matches you will literally get game 90%+ of the time. The other modes will have to wait for the patch.

Josie is a downgrade.

They should have made her a female but with a similar attitude and mindset as Bruce.

I cant stand her whining and crying.

I feel its a loss when I win with her and have to hear her voice or crying. She's slowly becoming a meme to me.

So I purposely host my own tournament lobbies with the header "Host no quit" and people FLOCK to my room to get games in 8 player double elimination. And I dont quit even if I'm out early becuase I'm legit. :p

Also I have created room names with "No Quit FAST" and I'll do a 4 man tourney single elimination for just a fast little tournament. Lots of options

And remember online PS4 works 90%+ of the time for tournament(s)

Well if you are able to get into a tourney. That is also a struggle.

So some of your moves are going to "guard crush" or put opponents into "a crouching state" sometimes those are frame traps (Sometimes they are not lol) but typically if is has some type animation showing you it hits hard.

Also many counter-hits will have different properties, you want to find those counter hits that knock down, or spin your opponant, etc, again pressure opportunities.

Those are time to keep up the pressure by continuing your offense.

Another way to build pressure is look to build ways to use your launchers, and knock-down-low attacks. When an oppounant is knocked to the ground they are vulnerable in Tekken, you can pressure by hitting them on the ground, or when they get up keep the pressure on....

When yo have momentum, keep the pressure up.

Yeah, I don't think every female character has to be a Strong Independent Woman, but Josie is not exactly a positive role model. Master Raven on the other hand seems pretty cool, although there's not much of a personality there besides "badass".

The lack of any female characters aside from Nina in the main narrative arc (
unless you want to count Xiaoyu's "look at how dumb she is to fall for Claudio's trap" or "robot-girl Alisa who acts equally cluelessly" stories
) is frustrating. I think women deserve better depictions in the game.


It's a joke that ranked match is still broken on ps4.

They can't fix it without a client update, and that takes a bit more time.

Bought an HDMI adapter for my PS2 this week so I could play Tekken Tag Tournament once again.

I wish I had the cash for Tekken 7 right now. All the talk about it has me itching to play the series.
 
I'm actually getting a decent number of matches sitting in the player match warm up area. Much better than before at least.

If anyone is up for some matches send me an invite DoubleDeazy2
 
Well if you are able to get into a tourney. That is also a struggle.

I've been talking to players across the nation for the past couple of days in online games, getting into the tournament is the 90%+ way to get games. Seems some people have figured it out.

However some folks dont know how to run the tournament room the best way it can be ran, so sometimes players just sit in a tournament room doing nothing. And when they are in a tournament room doing nothing they also think this aspect of online is Brocken, it isn't. Tournament rooms are the way to play online right now.

For the best experience a person should:

- Kick any players that are a RED BAR internet connection
- If the room doesn't fill up, you can still "Launch the Bracket" in a 8 player room with 4,5,6 players.

Also you should name your room "Host no Quit" and honor that you will not leave the room until the tournament is completed. I had to leave the house one time and just left my PS4 running so folks could finish the tournament.

Tons of success, actually playing basically any time I want.

Tried doing some Tournament matches off my PS4. After about 20 minutes of waiting in and out lobbies we finally start. Then. After 1 win the host and everyone else quits. Waste of time. Not touching online until I hear it's fixed. I was stupid to even try last night.

I was also getting booted out of most lobbies. Why?

I haven't been able to play online. Had a buddy come over and we played like 30 matches.

This image is pretty amazing.

The art direction changed entirely now.I prefer their old direction tbh.

Same. T3,Tag and T4 was the sweet spot for me.

Didn't they have better depictions previously or are my rose tinted goggles out of control?

I'm a bit disappointed Asuka never became a more important character.

Anyway, Jun will fucking return!
