Shaheen is pretty disappointing gameplay -wise. I was expecting a lot more.
And why have a sword if you're not gonna use it. Even if the rage art used his sword, I would have been satisfied.
I thought the same thing when I first saw him. I also imagined Marduk's angry face on there.
Exactly.
I wonder if all of the projects going on at Bandai Namco is wearing down the team. Project Tekken had a hand in Smash Bros, and now Pokken, besides just finishing Revolution, and still having TxSF and Tekken 7.
Why'd you have to do this to me?
Can't un-see now.
The back shoulder muscles are as big as his head. Uggggggh... Namco needs to replace existing staff that designs characters because they are doing quite the terrible job.
That's exactly what I've expressed concern about before. They are taking on all these projects. And I'd much rather have quality over quantity. But quantity seems to be the focus at the current juncture.

Then he'd look like POP ripoff. He doesn't look fantastic gameplay wise but not bad either.
Let's limit weapons to Yoshi(Kuni almost doesn't use the dagger).
But it would be interesting to see good weapon fighter that isn't Soul Calibur.
Edit:
People say this red guy might be BIO-Jack.
That'd be something.
So putting my hype for Tekken 7 aside, this is my overall summary of what the game is doing right and wrong.
What Tekken 7 is doing right:
What Tekken 7 is doing wrong:
So really, the stage development team is the one putting in real work. The rest are doing quite the ho-hum job for a new sequel and their imagination and creativity is really down the gutter.
Despite all this, I'm REALLY excited for this game. 1v1 Tekken is something I very much want to go back to. Though, if Tekken 7 ends up sucking, I will always have TTT2 to go back to.

Well, Shaheen's playstyle isn't terrible by any means. It's just not what I expected it to be.

Even though they haven't done this with T6 when TTT2 was released, I really see them removing online functionality for TTT2 once T7 is out for consoles.
Eh. TTT2 online servers are going to close at some point. I'll just play locally.

Yeah. "Military Style"
Starts doing cartwheels and flips.
"Oh...Military must have changed lately."
Ugh.
Yeah, I was not expecting cartwheels and flips. I was expecting a hard, power-hitting character. Military style would have been appropriate.
Yep. Or a new Jack. Looks dumb as hell though.
As far as fighting styles go, I don't mind Lucky Chloe's concept. Attacking while doing some b-girl moves kind of reminds me of Zack from the original American Power Rangers. Using dancing moves for a fighting style isn't the stupidest thing either (sup Capos), but I just cannot get behind that visual character design, or the fact that Tekken Team will obviously use that as excuse to give her a shitload of crush moves that will MAYBE (probably) be annoying to deal with.
Well, basing off the recent screenshots we have of the color customization options, you're gonna be seeing stuff a lot more worse than Chloe's default design. lol.

That's a tekken picture? It looks like a Bane ripoff. I hope that is not the new Jack. Looks dumb.
This is the reason for my rise in negativity. After seeing the new leaked designs, I am not very happy with whatever team is responsible for designing characters. It's all just so bland.
I'm feeling the same way.
I don't like the red dude at all, and I don't like the new girl either. So bland. Just bland. bland.

I think it's just Marduk costume like the one Dragunov gets.
They are heavy into SM this time.
Jin's and that girl's costume can also be custom.
I was expecting/hoping for "The Raid" Silat ripoff.

That guy looks like a Marduk / Jack Hybrid.
Marjack?
Jackduk?
Jarduk?
IDK. Anyway, what if something terrible happened to both characters, and Dr Abel or some other freak scientist merged them together into some kind of freakshow hybrid.
Sounds dumb, but imagine a character with the best of both movesets:
Jack's df2
Jack's debugger
Jacks db1
Marduk's VTS
Marduk's d3 (or was it d4)
etc (sorry I don't know Marduk's best moves off hand)

Maaaaan those black -> white transformations are racist as hell.
You all go and ask for a black character. I got my arab character and can die happily. Khalaas!
About the ranks posted earlier: There's still going to green/light blue ranks and Kyus or not? Which means they added quite a few ranks.
Juggernaut looks cool as hell. That's the rank I want to reach someday
Get outta my head. Hopefully I'll reach Hulk rank in the future.

Gonna try and not go 2-2 this year in Tekken @ Final Round. Also gonna post my Tekken 7 impressions in this thread. Like ZTS if anyone has anything they want me to try out, lemme know.

What's the input

No one knows.
But I'd just try d+2+3, d+1+2+3 or d+1+2+4
It must be down something.

I'll see. Probably gonna do that last since I wanna mess with Hwoarang lol.

Honestly, I don't think they would do too bad on her. Look at how Bruce, Raven, Eddy and Christie came out. I say they did a good job on all of them. Sega's Jeffrey and Vanessa(yeah, yeah, I know she is a tad lighter, etc) from Virtua Fighter are good also. Elena from Street Fighter also. We can't forget Lisa from Dead Or Alive. Grace in Fighting Vipers was the first I think.

She's as black as Fat Joe da Gangsta claims to be. Not to mention this:
Just because Vanessa received brighter skin doesn't make her any less black. Look at some famous black celebrities who mysteriously became brighter. They are still considered to be black though.

Only just found out Devil Jin will be in T7, great news!
Don't get so happy just yet.
Good to hear anything is possible for the game.
Lets hope he acts upon it.
Yeah, I'm a little relieved actually. Let's dump all four of these designs. Give Jin some better clothes and create new exciting characters with some actually good designs.
Yeah i like the new guys but not enough to have them over returning favs.
Jinpachi.
NO! Even as a joke... NO! We don't need any more generic Anime Bi-Shounen in Tekken! >_<
As Harada said, the characters are not final. They have to give Jin his Panda-costume first. It's what everyone has been asking for.
That comes after the fat fluffy Ling costume.
Seriously i hope they use their resources well since the roster is so short.
This a 100%.
Numbatisa is not Madridista's alt?
