TEKKEN 7 |OT| How I killed your mother

heh, lucky chloe is pretty cool

I dont hate her playstyle but I quickly made an alt outfit for her. Now she looks like Jenny from Bloody Roar. Which is not a fit but whatever lol

Two questions.

1. Um how do you block? Heh.

2. Is RB, LB, RT, LT now used at all?


1 - Walk back and back and down for the low hits.
2 - You can set them as shortcuts to button combinations but otherwise not really.
 
Nah, most the ones they added in 3 were bad too and I've played the rest, they should just add them into the story modes so it's more than a fast fat guy, some vampire and Blade. If you're not a Mishima or a pink haired robot, fuck them because these episodes just make them seem terrible.

I feel they progressively made Paul a worse character too.



I don't mean tiers or how they play, just thir actual character.

Still wrong though.

Saw a few people in earlier pages that are getting frustrated when asking for help and get out crazy letters and numbers as a response. THe reason why we speak in crazy numbers and letters is so we dont have to spell out everything and writing out essays to give you basic advice.

From r/ tekken


1 = Left punch
2 = Right punch
3 = Left Kick
4 = Right kick


f = Tap forward
F = Hold forward
d = Tap down
D = Hold down
b = Tap back
B = Hold back
u = Tap up
U = Hold up

Notations with a ”/" in means both directions, for example:
d/f = Tap down forward
D/F = Hold down forward
+= At the same time
N = Joystick in neutral
SS = Sidestep
WR = While running
WS = While standing up

Perform three 10 hit combos.
Win Online Tournament.

I suck at combos plus the online tournament stuff if I do it I may play with people I know and those still would get me bodied lol

Asuka's 10-hit Combo 3. Go into practice, takes 30 seconds.
I don't even know why its considered a 10-hit. It literally is only 4-hits and has a very simple and basic 3(!) button string to accomplish. But it works...

Ohhhh I may get into that soon then.
EDIT: WTF its literally 4 hits and it counts them as 10? This is bizarre. They better patch it now that I got the achievement. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)


Does anyone remember when is the stream?

The fuck? Tekken is still with the wacky I see. Is there a tag mode in this or something?

No tag. That is from Character Episodes in Story mode.

Yeah, but them as characters. I'm not talking about how they play or the competitive stuff. They're just boring and not being involved in the main story/having these terrible episodes is bad.
Isn't it better they not be in the main story if they're bad

I wouldn't say post-3 characters are garbage at all, but their styles aren't as interesting or unique as the 1-3 characters. But this is subjective of course; I find all the hard-hitting brawlers in the game boring and derivative.

Zafina was cool, but no one played her. Raven is okay. Asuka is good, but she's an inferior version of Jun. Alisa's moves are too anime for Tekken, but at least they tried something different. I haven't played 7 yet :(, so I don't know about the new ones, but Shaheen looks pretty cool.

edit: ah you're not even talking about the fighting style...well I don't know what you're talking about then. Even when I don't like a Tekken character's style, I usually think the design is okay. As for the story stuff, well yeah they screwed many characters over with dumb plots in the last few games. Hopefully with the Mishima storyline wrapped up(?) they can focus on multiple story arcs that include everyone.

Nice, I also found this glossary useful:
http://www.tekkenzaibatsu.com/wiki/Glossary

And for frames: http://rbnorway.org/yoshimitsu-t7-frames/

Still need to dive in to a long practice session and get reacquainted with all the moves. There's so many I imagine it will be a while before I try a different character.

Nice. The one time I opt for the game to be delivered, instead of going to pick it up myself due to my work schedule, it goes tits up and now it seems I'll be getting it on monday. Yay for the missed weekend of Tekken.

Fuck.

This machine is throwing a warning for fan failure. It's dropping frames and running at a low internal resolution. Luckily there's a second one!

But I think I'm going to go fuck this kid up in marvel first...

Awe I bought him next game. That was mean.

You don't need to win a tournament, just a game during the tournament.

1. Go to practice mode.
2. Pick Dragunov.
3. Do 1,3,1,2,4,1+2 three times (No. 74 in his move list)

Easy peasy.

Thing is Im not getting into any tournaments. That part seems to be dead atm on steam and Ive been looking around a few times. Gotta check if some friends join me for that one.

Asuka has the easiest one with 4 button presses tho. I died laughing when the combo counter says 4 but the achievement pops up

Just finished the main story and boy was their choice for the narrator bad. The Jacks were less mechanical when they spoke.

It also would've been nice if they had a difficulty between one and three stars. One star does lower the difficulty, but they also added in the "speed dial-a-combos" that kinda throw you for a loop the first time you start to play. Turned it down to get through the
Akuma/Heihachi
fights because I started to get tired of restating the series over after a loss at the end of the second round. I immediately put it back to three stars because I didn't like it.

Anyone else having freezing/stutters during the character chapter cutscenes? Just finished Katarina's and I thought my PC locked up it got so bad.

All characters since Tekken 3 have been damn great. Hell, the whole cast in the entire series is something else. Lucky Chloe is one of the coolest additions, and Josie's the best. But it's all a preference.

Ah ok I get what your saying. But that is just personal taste, it's like saying chocolate ice cream is better than dark chocolate ice cream. Depends on the person.

Also interesting to note character popularity is VASTLY different region to region.

For example Tekken 6 Alisa Bosonavich was so extremely popular in Japan she was considered the best new pop culture character made in years.

Also Lars was a great addition in gameplay and his story line was a good story arc too. Also Leo still confuses people! Lol

Don't get me wrong there are also poor new additions as well, but it not as bad as I think you feel it is.... but then maybe you ONLY like dark chocolate ice cream. :p

Thanks, just what I needed. Between this and GGX Rev 2, going to be a busy weekend.


Hi, i play Raven.

She kinda has different routes for different launchers because half leave her backturned and half do not, and the juggle height difference is kinda big.

But to give you something to work with:
df2 BT b2,3 <pause> b2,4,2 s! qcf3,4 - use this one for other launchers that leave her BT too
After ws1 and other similar front turned starters you can either do b2,2 BT 3+4 b2,4,2 s! qcf 3,4 or you can do db2,1 b2,4,2 s! qcf3,4
After ff3 i'd advise ff4 1 b2,4,2 s! qcf3,4

After screw you can choose to do 3~4 into oki or ff3 ff4 as well.

Raven combos are not the simplest, so just go into practice mode and see what works. This should give you a start, right?
 
The rank restrictions for online, is +3 a better or worse type of player then +2? It's a bit confusing.

The +3/+2 determines the range of opponents it tries to match you with. +3 = people within 3 ranks of you, +2 = people within two ranks. +2 is better for trying to rank up, because winning against people closer to your rank gives you more "points" in the ranking system for promotions. +3 is better if you're having a harder time finding opponents.

Well I can now reliably do my first juggle combo in Tekken. Settled on Dragunov and have been playing a bunch of treasure battle now to practice landing it on a live opponent.

I'll wait a day or two before I move online, give all the vets a chance to rank up out of the noob brackets.

Something small about Story Mode. Nothing crazy, nothing enough to be spoilered.

One thing in every Tekken I've always wondered about is how famous the KOTIF tournament is. Sure, they announce it and sure, the Zaibatsu has power but for a lot of the game they were like Shadaloo. They were notorious with organizations and can somehow keep themselves underground in a way at the same time. The Zaibatsu though, man, Jin really ramped shit up. Without that though, I've always wondered how famous Heihachi and the KOTIFT was. It's way more famous than I thought.

The owner of the Zaibatsu is treated like a President in the eyes of regular people it seems, I just never really thought of it that way.

Ah perfect! Makes sense!

Dayum online is tough. First match against someone using that Tiger girl. Spammed the Tiger roll move and I couldn't get close at all :/ beat her on the revenue march though! Just had to apply 100% close pressure.

I forgot Tekken had the worst/best dialogue. Nina Williams talking in English and Heihachi talking in Japanese. It's so weird. I love it.

Game is fucking great. Feels so much better than Tag 2 (being the only Tekken game Ive played)
 
This game has put me in a really bad mood. Took the day off work to play it. Every single online match bar 3 has dropped before it began. The single player is barebones as hell. I haven't played Tekken in years and there's no tutorial mode, not even a proper manual or a good guide anywhere to recap on the systems. I'm having to trawl for old TTT2 guides. I had a better experience with SFV day one than this budget release. Not impressed.
 

TGO

Hype Train conductor. Works harder than it steams.
Lei better be the first DLC character. It's amazing how lost I am not having him in the Roster.
I have others to full back on but Lei is Boss.
Not too keen on most the newbies
I think the most of Characters they introduced are weaker in every way than the ones they removed with a few new nice additions like Kazumi and Lucky and Josie.
Maybe I need more time with them.

Trying Chloe....

Tekken is the only game I can win at in arcades, since it's the only machine I ever see with japanese-style sticks and buttons. Every time I try to play CvS2 with one of those trash bat-top sticks I cry.
