T7FR Hwoarang is now T6BR Julia levels of broken at the wall

EDIT: But maybe the CPU isn't set up to autoblock after the first hit and that string is actually NCC?
doing as much damage at the wall as feng does in the open
I'll think about getting KoF after playing the demo. Other than that I'm not sure.
Gravity Rush and Vallyria Chronicles seem like obvious choices.


Yep...

you down for some?

Nice!

Twitter.
 
Hot demon chick with a nice outfit, i voted for her.

Was hoping for some cool unique gameplay with her vampire powers.

Instead we got barely any moves, stubby limbs and bootleg Jinpachi fly with only one move out of it. Robbed. And while the fireball at least looks cool it's not very good. =/

I'm caught in a bad place with online. I'm sick playing Tag. Tired of managing two characters on both sides, and for some reason Tekken 6 feels a little more responsive offline. But the netcode in Tekken 6 is so bad that online is almost out of the question.

Tekken 7 get here already
 
I figured she was a test character for Akuma. I'm pretty sure the Ono/Harada confab on bringing him in goes way back, and Eliza was silly way to test him out with players.

On the plus side, if she is added, Akuma will have a buddy to throw fireballs with. Whee!

They'll probably add her as DLC and she'll be considered the Gon of T7.

Did someone stream the SDCC Tekken panel?

Nah, no stream. You can find some stuff from it on twitter though, starting here.

Some character art for Bob and Master Raven:

How many characters have motorcycles at this point? And how long until we get a racing minigame?
 
Just played someone in a set and good lord I haven't been beaten that bad since I last played AV lol. Pretty damn good with Ling/Lei Bears Zaf and more. I was feeling pretty confident today competing against the average online folk but facing someone actually good always humbles you.

Get fucked all you non-T7 characters lol

Question time:
The Tekken Tag 2 Unlimited arcade machines were exclusives to Asia, right?

'cause I was taking a walk in Jesolo, VE (Italy) and I was surprised to find one in a pretty small Arcade.

Every Tekken character has something that's annoying to defend against. Dragunov has a backsway launcher, annoying plus frame moves like f1+2 and others, running 2 and a couple of other annoying string mixups. Feng is kind of like Nina because he has a bunch of built in sidestep animations, combine that with his backsway stance and annoying mixups. Lili can just sidestep the entire match and get away with it.

Leo can be extremely annoying with her stance mixups and her plus frame mixups as well. Bryan can be a narc most of the time. Ganryu seems to have these simple 1 dimensional strings but they can be a feat to defend against since he's slow and sometimes he's plus frames. Mishimas are annoying because they can just spam electrics and hellsweeps, they have so much commanding power with mixups sometimes and their strings can be delayed.

Bob just has all of that stuff, which is why he sucks. I really didn't want them to put Bob in Tekken 7, no one did. No one in this thread likes Bob, people who play Bob even seem indifferent about him. He's braindead and anyone can use him. There's a mentality that the character doesn't make the player, the player makes the character. In this case Bob makes the player. He's just really good and he's boring to watch. From the looks of it a lot of his moves look like they're the same speed. Combine that with his new tools, he might end up being even better than his Tag 2 counterpart.

Whenever I pick Bob in Tekken I feel like I'm just cheating now. Can't get the job done with Miguel or Jin, can't really launch punish that well with Bryan right now buddy, my fingers kind of hurt. My Law kind of blows right now, I'll pick Bob.

I can deal with Steve's counter hit launching strats, Raven's disappearing parries, Ling's confusing mixup platters where she mixes you up after mixing up two mixups, Akuma's nonchalant style of gameplay or Law's dragontails, just please don't make me have to deal with Mr. Roberto Ricardo in another game.

No, like T7 there were a few floating around outside of Asia. We had it here.

I don't mind Bob. I don't dislike any Tekken character.

Junny seems like to have the most consistent art in the team. It's funny to see his Master Raven's panel is the only one where she doesn't look like she has a naked butt

I would, but I think I'd end up embarrassing myself. Played the other day for the first time in months, and I kept dropping combos, messing up inputs, and generally getting mopped across the floor.

This is how it goes after abstinence. Tekken is a drug you must take constantly to feel good.
It takes me a week of not playing to suddenly suck at it and takes a few days to a week to get back to form.

I fell in rank to get up again to fall down in never ending circle more times then I can remember. That's not important. Keeping a shape is.

Guys don't wait for T7 to play Tekken. You'll be rustier then Soviet tanks. Meanwhile dudes who never stopped playing will look like supernatural freaks.
