Chloe is so annoying...Harada says she is not Japanese(American probably) and is an Otaku Akihabara addict, yet gives her a super thick Japanese accent with full on engrish dialect with Japanese being her spoken language in cutscenes..

Anime was a mistake.

I wish her moveset was equally annoying.

As a new player don't worry about the move list. As you become more experienced you'll appreciate there is more to explore when you "newness" is done.

Here is a simple three things to remember:

1) movement, movement, movement. Really Tekken is more of a game about our positioning the opponent with good movement. And punishing the opponent when they whiff and attack.

2) Learn what are your "launches" so you can punish an opponent when they whiff

3) learn your poke moves (kinda like footsies in SF) use your pokes to set up opponents for the launchers.

Keep it aimplies to those three things and you you'll be one your way.

Thanks for this - that is how I will focus. It's tough trying to stick to fundamentals when the long juggle strings are so impressive, but I will take one step at a time.

I can't join anything. Ranked, casual, or tournaments.

Tournament is the only mode I've actually played anyone properly in. But then there's an issue of tournaments being hosted by someone which means when they leave the room disbands. So you can potentially waste 30 minutes with no rewards. Fun mode, garbage execution.

Can't get SRK inputs as consistently with Eliza as I do with Akuma. Are her inputs intentionally more strict or is it simply because Akuma can usually cancel into his while Eliza can't so the timing is causing problems?

I'm having the exact same problems with Eliza's SRK. Akuma's is super reliable to pull off but I can't do it with Eliza as often, or even at all.

Isn't Chloe SUPPOSED to be annoying tho

She's a satire/parody of idol culture

She's a vain actress who puts up an act to pose as a mascot for an evil corporation to get the public on their side

I get that, and that's why its so annoying. The character premise has potential.

I mean, it would not be anywhere near as irritating if she WAS Japanese. I mean fine, Harada's obsession with Idolmaster has reached its peak with the character, i get it. But it could have been a clever subversion for her to break the role.

Being a foreigner, have her bust out with perfect english and a normal attitude for a few seconds or some shit for a comedic moment. But no, apparently she might as well have been a Japanese character entirely with the same generic idol attitude seen everywhere and not batted an eyelash about it. Its a waste of a character idea...but this is the game that gives Panda and Kuma separate slots over some other requested characters..

The best thing about T7 so far for me is the fact that Xiao's moveset is relatively untouched and her new default outfit is boss

Oh wow. They made an Ignis costume for Dragonov in Treasure mode. Not 100% accurate but it's so on the nose. The hair, glasses, suit, and the fact that he's holding fruit and meat.

Here a tip for Tekkens DP execution:

Do a quick F,F motion
Let the controller (or joystick) go back to N(neutral)

Then do D,D/F+2

Bam easy to do. Just think of it as a dash forward, letting it go to neutral and then the duck to duck+forward.

Any articles or similar that go through Law? I figured i'd get into the game with him since he was one of my most played chars in 3 and 4. Been playing a few online matches and fucking around in treasure mode and practice, but it would be good to get a good overhaul on the playstyle he's built around and such, safe pokes, etcetcetc

You know a game is good when you get your ass handed to you online, and your first reaction is "Damn I wish I'd gotten into this series sooner!"

Well congratulations! You got yourself caught!

None so far really. I have spent most time in Treasure Battle though, so what I have seen of the 'default' costumes is limited, but of those few occasions I have a good look at a default costume, none have struck a chord with me much.

I'll do a quick tour and come back as now I am really curious.

I'm loving Feng and Bryan's defaults this time. Feng has some cool gloves on and Bryan's got some kind of armour underneath his clothes.

Not really feeling Heihachi's default in this one, so I've got him wearing a tiger coat and a bear mask.

I'll never understand this sentiment...
It's not like that if the bears were sharing one slot, the other space would have been given to an additional character

Is there a gaf discord for this or something? Would be fun to do some private games with other terrible players like me, since private stuff is supposedly working fine.

Do Panda and Kuma have significantly different movesets these days? Otherwise I have no idea why they'd do that, other than that there's a segment of players that really loves the Panda palette swap.

As for Xiaoyu, I haven't seriously played her since T3 so I'm drowning in moves. Not a fan of her new P1 outfit though. Seems like Namco gave everyone flowy outfits just to show off their cloth physics (which isn't very good).

I won a mirror match online!

I'm actually finding Chloe really fun, even if I feel like I have no idea what the hell I'm doing in this game.

Punk Chloe looks awesome too.
