TEKKEN 7 |OT| How I killed your mother

That's barely a spoiler. In fact calling it a spoiler probably draws attention to what would otherwise just be two characters from the game.
 
So what's everyone's thoughts on the newbies? This feels like the biggest influx of new blood in quite some time but in terms of first impressions, only Claudio is really calling out to me.

I loving all the new comers so far, as their designs in gameplay after going through their moves list are well designed.

Josie is a solid Bruce-type character, is expect she will be a hidden gem.

Lucky is so trolling, I love how she gets on peoples nerves and might play here just for that reason. Lol

Claudio is interesting to me becuase his play style is different than I play, so I'm curious if I can figure out to use him well.

Kazumi is my personal favorite just becuase of her looks along, he design is beautiful.

Shaheed i am really curious to play, becuase he has allot of tackle moves like Murdock had, so I'm curious how good these will be. I also like how closely NAMCO worked with the Arab fans to develop a character they really like.

So lots to explore super fun, thank you NAMCO for doing the fighting game genres a solid entry!!!
 
Playing in a tournament right now and my match came up with the host. The match never started and he was given victory. He's telling everyone in chat we had a match and he beat my ass. Are people really this fucking stupid. Jesus what a loser
 
When will Eliza be available for purchase. My main account is US so I am hoping to at least get her by purchasing from there.

I am from SEA and I am not able to redeem the code I got from my R3 physical copy and it says the area of residence of the master account holder must be Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia. I have a Hong Kong account so that I can redeem my R3 codes but this is the first time I am not able to. Do I need make a Singapore account or is it due to my location?

A month after release I believe

Anyone else feel like character customization has the lamest clothing options since 5? I've looked through most of the characters and I'm not very impressed. I smell the good stuff being hidden behind a paywall later on.

In terms of fighters,there isn't really much competition in this genre now, aside from injustice 2...Virtua Fighter, Toshinden, Soul Calibur, Dead or Alive have fallen by the way-side...

DOA?

It was single handedly holding the fort while Tekken was dragging its ass in the arcades.

Had the most amazing three matches against a Hwoarang with my Katarina. Ended up losing 1:2, but learnt so much from the experience. When I realized I had begun to instinctively duck from highs my mind was fucking blown. Tekken 7 just feels right.

Barely remember 5 but it has less than Tag 2, which was already a big regression from Tekken 6. I also hate how they tease Nina's awesome black suit in story mode and you can't use it.

I've gotten into a few tournaments on NA PS4. I'm glowing red as Katarina, what the fuck do I do? I've played the tutorial but I still don't know who to do. Thanks!

Did some more player matches on PS4. I think I love this game, despite never getting into Tekken previously. I don't think I'm remotely good at it, but I'm approaching it by focusing on getting the movement down instead of treating it like a 2d fighter. Turns out I didn't like Tekken because I was playing it wrong.

Might end up grabbing it for PC as well, depending on when I goes on sale for $30 or so.

Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Guilty Gear, Dead or Alive. Kinda the same as the PSone days wehen Tekken debuted. Online Injustice is a newcomer.


It's still fucked on PS4.

Only thing that works is player matches vs people on your friends list.
Tournament worked for me. A few hours ago.

But anything involving Casual or Ranked just doesn't work.

That's what I did yesterday. I was lucky enough to find someone. They said nothing worked in Rank and I had been sitting there practicing for about 15 minutes. Granted, I have someone to play with now. It still sucks Ranked is DOA. Lol
 
If you have the patience, you can sit in the "warm up" room until you actually connect with an opponent. That's what I did (not really a fan of sitting around waiting for tournaments to end).

Just be sure to keep revenge-matching him or her no matter how good/bad they are.

Sucks that ranked will likely not be fixed until after my 48 hour PS+ trial expires. I'm one trophy away from my very first platinum....
 
Maybe I was just lucky, but online on PS4 worked great for me last night. I went to Ranked Match and did what Harada suggested -- opened the match search list and waited. A couple minutes later a challenge popped up, I accepted, and the netcode was stellar. Then went into a tourney and actually had a bunch of respectful people (other than the voice chat, where's the f'n mute button Harada). And again the netcode was near-perfect in every match.

So if you're having trouble finding someone, just wait a bit in the match list. Obviously there's problems with the matchmaking servers, but hopefully that workaround should work as a stopgap.

btw, is there really no way to save match replays a la T6? This is one of the best ways I learn from my mistakes. I didn't see an option though...

Yup, it's very lacking. It's been regressing clothing wise since Tekken 6.

You can't? I always encounter Kazumi for some odd reason. Granted, I always play as Heihachi so that could be the reason

That could indeed be the case. But yeah I kept getting Akuma at the end. Though with Osu 16 bit's advice I just had to throw 3 of my matches in order for her to show up.

DOA makes more money than the other games due to the dlc and seaon passes. People just never admit to play it. Plus new DOA soon.

Love this game. Just been in training for the past hour messing around with Master Raven a bit. This gameplay is the best this series has ever been, just crazy. I can't wait to get this new tv to see how the graphics truly look while busting dudes with my characters.

Naaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

I'm pretty sure DOA is behind T7, Injustice, SFV and MK when it comes to profit lol. They're not shabby but these other games make more all-around.
