TEKKEN 7 |OT| How I killed your mother

OK I put the jukebox on shuffle all, and now I wish there was a little pop-up to tell you what music track is playing. There's so many cool songs! I know, a small nitpick but why not! That's like the first thing I would have said if I were a playtester during development!

I absolutely hate Tekken 7's sound track except for its main menu and azure stage and firebrim stage. All this WUB WUB WUB ahh!

I'm pretty sure that Heihachi will have unlocked some hidden power inside of him (maybe the thing Jinpachi had that they still haven't talked about) to survive or he'll some back as someone who's "not alive nor dead" or something. He mentioned throwing Kazuya off a cliff and proving he's not human and all that but you then look at everything Heihachi can do himself. That's just not human, he's got something in him and that'll likely show up in the next game.
I said this earlier, but Heihachi better get a do-over. Kazuya's punk ass did thanks to g-corp. Heihachi let kaz win.

Did my first tourny on PC. There were a couple 1 bar connections to me so I was worried, but they were playable albeit not ideal. Came away with the grand prize of 3mil.
 
Holy shit I made it to an online match! And I won! So does my Leo always get super sweaty at the end of a match, or is it just an oily face.... first time I've noticed it.
 
Replaced the main menu music track with TTT's "Name Entry". Much more chill. I feel like we need a separate thread just for jukebox customizations.
 
Wow, the online in this is bad. I must have gotten into 2 of 10 attempts.

Yeah, online is a mess. What I played was pretty smooth at 4+ bars but it took 15 minutes to actually connect to anybody.

And I'm not gonna lie, I'm pretty disappointed at customization this go round. Maybe it's late, maybe I'm tired...but I can't equip a hat if I change the color of the default hairstyle? Ok.
 
The best option is shuffle all IMO, always fresh, always surprising!

That would mean I might have to hear a T7 track, and that's not gonna happen. Plus I really like finding the perfect song for each stage.

I think it's okay, but it's no Tekken 6. My biggest complaint so far is that we can't choose shoes separately from the pants.

Dead or Alive 5 story was better executed than Tekken 7 and respected the guest characters more.

Is this about Akuma? With the treatment he got for this game, I can't see how anyone would say Tekken treats their guest characters badly. Guy got a main spot in the story and an incredibly faithful look and moveset, probably better than his SFV equivalent.

Story mode was a bit meh,but had some cool moments. And loved the part around
Tekken 5's intro, since I always liked that intro and the music
. So playing it was really cool.

The invisible armor in the matches sucked a few times, but managed anyway.

Disappointed that most of the characters had nothing to do with it. Jin was a bit baffling that he's
asleep during most of it.
. Understand the reasoning, but sucks as a fan of him. I wanted to learn a bit about Shaheen also, but nothing about him. Then the Character Episode had this really generic and basic storyline...and a comic relief ending...oh well.

Now to finish the rest of the episodes. Tried online and no dice, but in no rush as I'm not big into playing online. XD
 
Yeah I can't get a ranked match at all.

Been messing around in lobbies and tournaments. Most of the connections have been very smooth (and I'm on wifi). Tournaments are pretty awesome. You get huge rewards and it's super satisfying to come out on top at the end.

I was in losers bracket and I beat the last guy thinking I won the tournament. Didn't realize I had to beat him twice. :p

Simply didn't fit and felt forced in the story. The comment is not about how he plays but how he was tacked on on the story and there is not really much there about him.

So as of right now on PS4 lobby (dont know if same issues on PC)

1. Matches will sometimes disconnect towards the end. It looks like a rage quit but it really isn't since your opponent still appears in the player lobby.

2. You have to press X to start the match otherwise it skips you and puts you at the bottome of the lobby list. I was jamming X for 30 seconds just now and it still skipped me to the bottom.


Harada got some shit to do along with broken ps4 matchmaking lol
 
Please...someone tell me how to beat devil Kazuya....I think I've lost 50+ times now and I can't fight with Heihachi...he like my least liked character so this is truly a battle

Still though how the fuck do y'all remember these massive movelists lmao. I'm assuming most characters have a handful of best / most viable moves for a given situation though, so maybe that makes it easier?

Think of your hundred move on a tier list. You want to find the top-tier moves and stick to those. Later you dig into the rest.

Yeah I think Heihachi will get some justice because honestly the guy went out like a boss. Heihachi's been able to do so much and survive so much so I really don't see how he won't come back. It just felt like a setup.

Yeah somebody needs to make that.

I started using a pad for Injustice 2, and I'm wondering if I should do the same for Tekken. Any former stick users have input?

IMO stick only feels right on 6 button fighters. Feels a bit awkward right now for Tekken.

I'm a long time stick user and my input is that whenever you can use a pad, do it. I wish I could use a pad for everything now but my muscle memory is screwed for many fighters.
 
Yo, This final story battle is some ol' BULLSHIT

...then you have to fight an Akuma that essentially has infinite meter? Yo fuck this.

He fuckin better!! The man beat down Kazuya in his devil form. Heihachi took a full on explosion in Tekken 5, a little lava can't hurt him!!!
 
Jukebox is garbage and missing a lot of tracks. How do you have a Tekken 2 tracklist without Head Shaker and As Bald As? The fuck? Completely killed my "match each stage with a Tekken 2 stage" vibe.

Yeah, this soundtrack is a mess.

luckily, Jukebox is an amazing feature.Even better than Tekken Tunes.

But,yeah I dunno if I am being unfair to the soundtrack or what ,but it feels like a huge misstep.

Please...someone tell me how to beat devil Kazuya....I think I've lost 50+ times now and I can't fight with Heihachi...he like my least liked character so this is truly a battle

I played on easy mode and spammed Heihachi's electric (The input is just one button on easy mode)

BRUH

I had the same complaint

I was ready to put 'As Bald As' in the Mishima Dojo. But nope, only the arcade version is there.

Ended up using his Tekken 3 and 4 themes instead

I love Tekken 7's track. I don't get the hate. There are some good ones out there that I like such as g-corp stage, and even some of the ones from story mode's final battle is quite good IMO. I am quite pleased with it.

This difficulty curve in story mode is ridiculous. That final bonus stage is really really hard, even on the easiest difficulty. I don't even care about the story, I just wanna finish it to get it done so I can go back to character stories/treasure battle, fuck you

There's a lot of brilliant songs in the ost imo, most of it is very good. Only a few aren't great, maybe like 2 bad ones.

Abandoned Temple is fucking excellent.
 
Just played and won my first ranked match. It was super close, damn. We we were both 2-2 and in Rage mode.

I'm shaking from nerves. Haha, I get so stressed against other people in fighting games -_-.

T7's soundtrack is a mixed bag. Half I love, half I hate. The issue is that Tekken as a series has such amazing music even if this was "pretty good" it would still be at the lower tier of things.

Jukebox has saved things.

Exactly. Some tracks are just all around excellent, some have good parts and bad parts and some are just bad.

For example, the Arena stage music round 1. The beginning part is awesome and really done well.Then the intense dubstep part starts and it's just shit.
 
These character episodes being a single fight seems really lazy. At least the accompanying cinematics are pretty funny.
Lili is savage af.

I am so terrible at this game but I find it fun as hell and I am dedicated to learning it. Just playing through arcade mode with a bunch of characters right now to try and get a feel for it and decide who I'm going to play.

From the beginner videos and general consensus here I understand that there tends to be relatively universal types of moves as between the characters but I'm having trouble just understanding the system generally. I just need to practice more to get a sense of it, I'm sure.

Presentation of this game gets me hyyypppeee but then I enter a fight and I'm total shit lol
