Yeah you can set the 2nd cpu action to block everything. I don't get why the combo counter is busted in this game either.

Put action settings 1 to stand, then action settings 2 to guard all. Don't forget to set side roll(right or left) on too.
*edit* and I'm 5 minutes too late.

Come on, we knew that was coming...and it's exactly what I plan to do, too.
After a long time away, I went online to get the new characters. Not only am I rusty but I got trolled hard by a Dr. B that did nothing but butt slide me to death. I plan to get back into the fray this weekend.
It's all random and you unlock stuff for the "gold" characters that you fight against.

Do I have Tekken Tag, getting my Wii U tomorrow.
Do I need a pro controller for this?

Pick a team and make the 1st character the character you want to unlock stuff for. Then pick the gold panels, you should get gold panels with the characters you play. Takes me about 15min to unlock everything for a character.
Play in Ghost Battle with the character you want to unlock the panels. Select the gold-plated characters. It's random but you should have them sooner rather than later.
Edit: Already beaten.
No you don't.
So for the Wii u version, i'm confident when I say giving a character 1 million will definitely give you one of their character panels (I tested this twice). When I gave one 500k, they gave me nothing
hahahhaha. Keep going strong.
Depends on your preference. Although, I think Pro Controller is probably better but the pad should be fine too.

Yeah what I meant is, is it comfortable to play the game with the GamePad or is the Pro Controller the preferred method? I guess Ill buy a pro controller just to be sure, will need it somewhere in the future anyway
I guess Ill buy a pro controller just to be sure, will need it somewhere in the future anywayIf you want to test out if the a string jails on block, there's no direct way to set that up (someone correct me if I'm wrong). The work around here is to set the dummy to the character you want to test and record the string and perform the duck yourself.
Note, this is useful since it can garner juggles with wr moves.
Edit: Thinking about it, I should be wrong about this...maybe I did something wrong yesterday.
Played about ten hours of this since picking it up last Thursday. This might be my favorite retail release of a fighting game since VF4 Evo on PS2. No garbage mode like Tekken 6, awesome/stupid CG endings for everybody, and the customization options are right up there with VF5. The single player modes are so good it makes me wonder what the hell has happened to Soul Calibur over the years with the dumbass "tower of souls" modes. The Combot customizing is terrific.
Are online player matches at least hospitable to people who didn't play a ton of T6 online? It was really smooth after that first patch, but so many matches had Eddy Gordo / Christie / Tiger players that I just got bored with it before long. I wish I had bought the T6 CE for PS3 back in 2009 instead of 360. That Hori stick was decent for the package price. Tekken has always been perfect on a PS pad for me, but I imagine I'll get mauled by juggling combos online without a fighting stick.
If the online play doesn't stick for me, the game will at least be good for a few dozen hours of Ghost Battle. It isn't quite Quest Mode, but it is easier to use multiple characters and has endless replay value.

What's your NNID, I'll put a stop to it LOL

No worries about character variety online. Prepare to see EVERYONE. Netcode is the best you can get, outside of ASW fighters. As far as I know, most American Tekken players use a pad. Movement is certainly much easier on pad from my experience (I still use stick though).

I microwave steaks.
It's already done, i've finally vsed someone who was much better than me, but his 0 wins and 1 loss fooled me! Looks like more people are finally picking up on this game. I await european takeover!
Yeah, that was probably a player who has another high ranked team trying out new characters

So I got that art book for pre-ordering the Wii U edition, I'm impressed with how goshdarn thick it is. Usually pre-order bonus artbooks/ce artbooks are really flimsy and short. Harada ain't messing around.

WTF is weird, it seems to update whenever it feels like it. I have 9 out of 15 matches that went completely untracked today. Sucks cause I went 8-1 in that strecth too. Its been awhile since I played that much but my hands are actually not in pain today!

I really wish I had that artbook.
It will probably update with them in a few hours. Not sure why it does that sometimes but usually it's instant.

It hasnt =( I played a few matches about an hour ago and those updated but the 9 matches before are still no where to be found.
If we are talking side tourneys at evo then I'm gonna say we need to have dat Mushroom Battle mode.

I have to see this. I just tried it.. feels impossible
Just curious since I'm a little late, is this the gaf team?
Are you able to join only one team?
Is anyone here in a different team?

just picked this up cos my ex loves tekken and we'll probably play it a lot over christmas break
i haven't followed it at all, what's the general consensus on this entry? i was sort of disappointed with 6 but i can't really place why. just didn't leave an impression

It's basically 6 with tag, just how the first one was basically 3 with tag.
It's definitely a more polished and content filled game than 6, also the netcode is really good.
Jaycee db+1+2 goes to bridge stance... then press 1+2... In TZ terms... BRG 1+2
As far as netcode and features goes, this is a lot better than T6. But I love T6 immensely as well.
Yeah, that's the gaf team. You can ask Master Milk to join since he's the team leader. You can join only one team but if you change your mind, you can always quit one team and form/go to an other one.
I'm in basically no team.
I can test this for you in practice and let you know shortly. Haven't played Leo in so long. Don't really remember much with her.
Looks like it's guaranteed from what I was able to test, but seems dependent on distance. Had a devil of a time landing the qcf+4 from three backdashes away after the CH. From 1-2 backdashes away, pretty easy to hit. Either way, this is huge for my game, since the qcf+4 can lift the opponent off the ground for a combo.

To those playing with arcade sticks.
(stupid question)
...Are you using only the Tatsunoko stick or did you find a way to hook up a PS360 stick

Arcade mode
You can unlock endings through Ghost mode as well, but it's random.
Anyone know if the Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom sticks work with the Wii U version of the game? If they do work, how easy is it to control? The official Hori sticks have a different button layout for the shoulder buttons.
I'm picking up two arcade sticks so I'm trying to figure out which to purchase (Tekken or T vs. C sticks).

You can probably use a PS360 stick with some sort of converter.
TvC stick will work from what I've heard.
Looking to get back into this game. Im thinking of doing a Feng/Bruce team or Jin/Feng, would either of those work?
Also since Im still a newbie to Tekken, I just want to practice the basics before touching things like combos and stuff. I've been reading up AAK's guide and was just wondering about backdash canceling and how to do it properly because I have no clue. I know the notation, but when I try it out in practice mode my character either ends up not backdashing at all when I input the d/b and instead walks back, or dashes and goes into the foreground/background.(I play on stick btw)

Either of those teams can work well. Actually, any team can work well in this game. Part of the charm is using your own creativity to come up with new stuff.
Both of those teams are very good, but you should play Feng/Jin if you want to play the 2nd one, Feng is best as a point character and one of the best Korean players plays that team. Look up TTT2 Hao on youtube. Also look up Aris Feng tutorial it's really good and covers basically everything you would need.
http://www.avoidingthepuddle.com/ne...w-to-play-feng-5-part-character-tutorial.html
As far as backdash cancelling if you just want to play the game casually and aren't planning on using back sway characters. Just do bb, qcb, b, qcb, b~ to backdash. It's very easy and only slightly worse than the proper way. If you want to learn the proper way turn on input display and make sure your inputs are clean, but it's pretty hard. I started tekken with TTT2 and it took me about a month of practice to get it down well.
I finally decided to jump into TTT2 and I don't know where to "start". What are some good characters to get a grip of the game systems/gameplay? I have the Avoiding the Puddle guides bookmarked, are there any other guides I should look at? Any tips, links, etc. for a new player would be greatly appreciated.
I have input display on and it says im doing it correctly, but the same situation described above happens(specifically walking back into a full crouch animation instead of dashing) I don't know if I'm doing it too fast/slow or its something else.
Lobby is up if anyone wants to join.
Good characters to start with: Lili/Sebastian, Feng, Paul, Alisa. Ultimately, it depends on your playstyle preference. There's a lot that can be linked as far beginner videos/guides/etc. Check the OP.
