Too much brain power involved. People don't wanna think, they just wanna bang. Let them bang, Bro!
Adventure Time is REALLY great too, but for different reasons. It's also very hard to explain. It's one of those shows where I recommend that you try to watch several episodes before giving up on it. Plus, DAT LSP!
That is usually how the cycle of Tekken plays out. I'm sure there will be a handful of leftover stragglers that you can still play Tag 2 online with, but don't expect much (if any) meaningful competition.
Honestly, that's the only reason I could think of... I guess it's not about competition and more about entertainment in gaming nowadays. The same reason why I do not think Tekken 7 will magically "save" the franchise even with lesser chars, simplified gameplay and stuff, in the end, if the playerbase continues to beat them up hard, those people won't stick around.
And yeah, I will try to watch them again, but after I finish a bunch of anime in my queue lol.
Depends... If Tekken 7 ends up sucking, TTT2 will still be played, but in that case, Tekken in general would be goner in the west by then...
Personally, I'll just let it be... And I will continue to support TTT2 even in non-competitive way...
Tekken 6 still had online competition despite the TTT2 release. I bet people still play tekken 6 actually.
But yeah, most people will migrate over to tekken 7.
Hahaha. Stand still. But I am standing still.

Favorite episode is definitely Season 2's Bunker episode. That one episode had more entertainment than most films! Also... Soos's quote at the end:
Soos, "Good luck sleeping tonight"
I lost it

Haha, that was good!
Must give it a watch.
Actually, the wall push doesn't even need to be 90 degrees or higher. The qcf+1 works even if it is done with the linear version. The trick is, is that the opponents back must hit the wall at the very end of the throw animation rather than the beginning... hence the spacing is pretty tricky. If they hit the wall early you only get 1,1,2... and I think the same applies if the wall push is done from the 90 or more degree angles too I'm not sure. But I am 100% sure of the linear wall push allowing the qcf+1 at the right spacing since I have done it before
WOO! Thanks AAK!

As expected from AAK. Playing Steve "for fun" yet being better than us Steve players
By the way, does Hwoarang's uf+3+4 have any crushing properties? I feel like it hits way more often than it should.
Good games Doomshine. I feel like I'm getting used to Bosconovic^^
Good luck Flying Wonkey

Me and Help Me are kinda apart in the Brackets though so for the moment, he's not the guy to worry about haha.

Toronto has an incredible Steve player named Adeel who's been leveling up insanely. I played him quite a bit and stole pretty much everything from him haha.
Asf or Hwoarang's u/f+3+4... the crush properties happen at a very few frames I believe. I've been hit by lows while doing it a lot but I assume they happened a bit later in the animation. I wouldn't rely on it too much for its crush properties. The same thing can be said about his u/b+4. I've been hit with lows while doing that move as well too but I haven't tested it enough to know when the exact crush frames are. I guess his orbital heel is the more consistent move to go for low crushes... but it's so damn slow so beware of having it whiff
Also I just realized something about pokken after the revelation that it won't have high/low mixups. The trailer had projectiles and a lot of jump-ins along with this new no high/low mixup mechanic... Something tells me this is where a bunch of ideas of Tekken X Street Fighter got funneled maybe?

I use uf3+4 a lot when I'm cornered or for general mix-up, especially from LFS. It's -10 on block, so I only eat jabs if it's blocked. Never happened in ranked, though
To anyone that watched WNF last night.... the way to beat Capo's u/f+3 mixup is to simply react to the animation. The low happens in one fluid motion, the mid happens with a very minute pause where Eddy/Christie is switching momentum to do the mid. It is kinda difficult without practice but it's just like throwbreaking.
I'm not sure but if they simply do u/f+3 into RLX, I think you have enough time to do a quick low or even jump over them.

Crazy. Wonder if he practiced that.
Ganryu Reversal always give you free d+1+2. It's a Ganryu staple. The question is whether or not he gets the opponent in BT or not.

Or you won't be studying much of anything.
Kidding, studying will kill time to Tekken 7. Win - Win.
Subtl just blew my mind yesterday about how he felt Pokken is gonna compete with Yokai watch. How they can potentially have vending machines for pokeballs that you can put into the arcade machine the same way Pokai watch has vending machines for discs that you put on the watch that does something else in the 3ds.
The most surprising thing about this announcement is that Pokken is coming to Arcades in 2015. I wonder if that pushes the Tekken 7 arcade release further back to probably 2016 so they don't want them competing with one another. Especially considering that Pokken will destroy Tekken 7 in Arcade sales 10 fold.
Haha don't get me started. There were just so many instances where I was getting double digit win streaks and eventually when I got to the promotion chance I lost.. and then lost every subsequent match to get demoted haha.
Currently I'm in Toronto visiting some family until my cousin's wedding on Sept. 6. After that I'll definitely be back
Be sure not to burn yourself out and leave some time for your hobbies! But good luck with school... it was personally less daunting than real life for me.

If they really do all of those things then it shouldn't matter. They won't be competing for the same audiences.
On the flipside, it makes me wonder if Namco won't be drasticallly changing Tekken after all. The barrier of entry will still need to be lowered somewhat, but now that they're making a completely separate super accessible fighting game maybe they won't go reinventing the wheel with Tekken (not that they should've anyway). The ideal was to always have a new IP be the testing ground for more simple gameplay, and while we thought that was gonna be TxSF, we got Pokken instead.

Yeah like Famicom I think Pokken is not aimed at the same audiences.
Though I wonder what will happen if some hardcore like JDCR will suddenly insert a credit Pokken arcade while some 10 year was casually playing, and destroy him with set up he figured out in first 10 seconds of match.
Innocent tears I tell you. Innocent tears.
I had a short Tag2 session but it was sweet.
8 win streak in ranked against berserkers and I got Kaz and Steve to Fighter. I even had promotion to Berserker but that solo Hwoarang just stopped my Steve dead with almost just db+3. Damn range of this poke. But nevermind I won like 85% of fights today so it's close to promo.
I think I'm gonna go with short sessions instead of playing all day and go up and down with wins and loses.
But maybe it's all because I customized Kaz to look like Rama/Iko Uwais in Raid 2.
Intimidation.

Nice! You definitely deserve a higher rank, especially your Jin! Kaz/Steve is also a really good match. TheMainMan gets some devastating combos out of them.
I beat 2 Warriors and 3 Berserkers yesterday, lost my luck suddenly and got destroyed by spammy Brawlers. Demotion should not be too far away. I still hate ranked and the way I can't handle stress.

Thanks man. I'm getting decent at throwing out ewgf from certain distance so if they throw a jab it catches the end of their extended hand, pretty funny and effective.
You play way better then your ranks. I know stress ruins everything, but I start imagining the stress of my opponent and it lowers mine. Playing you also helped me dealing with ranked Xiaoyus and Hwoarangs. I'm like "Eh, Sasuke has better Hwo, you are dead dude."

Hahaha. Yeah, I hope the Tekken 7 wait isn't anything like the Tekken 6 wait.

Thanks.
School would be less daunting if I didn't have to work. But it can get really aggravating when there's papers and exams. So many nights spent staying up trying to finish work.
I can do pretty continuous electrics, but I have to concentrate on it so much. Same with JFSR. Does that count as a counterhit? Would be pretty cool for Jin, since his cd2 only launches on counterhit.
And thanks. Being so low ranked has its advantages. Nobody expects my Hwo to be decent, so I do have the element of surprise
Your Hwoarang is also really good, you should play him more
Did you stop playing Beak? I played a Berserker Hwoarang/Beak player the other day, and he relied a lot on Beak's annoying strings. Somebody should have told him that most of them can be interrupted by jabs...
No Tekken 7 at TGS.

Or he could be trolling and will show it. He also said no Tekken announcements this year before Tekken 7 reveal, haha.

Thanks I will get back to Taekwondo guys for sure. Yeah flamingo stances are risky. I noticed you go to fla from a distance but you stop me when I rush for punishment.
Though Beak has great launcher from fla uf+3 it crushes d+1, I think hwo can do the same with hunting hawk but it's much slower. Wonder if in T7 Hwo will get that move.

I don't know what to think.
Was this location test info real? I'm starting to think it wasn't.
So, DOA5 going to PS4ONE. Do you guys think Namco will push something on PS4 before Tekken 7?
I gotta buy PS4 finally.
My Kaz is Berserker but Steve lost that promotion 4 times. What's wrong with you Steve?

He is retweeting SCEJ conference. Maybe we'll see something there I hope?
I hope the news on location tests is accurate. That means we get our hands on it sooner too.
They have Pokken in 2015. I imagine they want to release Tekken 7 before that.
Maybe first gameplay short? Please even 3.5 seconds would make me squeal.
Tekken 7 in the first quarter of 2015 would rock hard.
Does Tekken GAF expect any releases on next gen before Tekken 7 ?
I really hope they remaster either T6 or TTT2 to keep us occupied. Preferably with some new patch to shake up the gameplay(I know that's highly unlikely lol)
Tekken is really high profile in Japan so this could help move some units.Other fighting games are doing it so I can't see why they aren't going to do such a re-release.
I kinda wish Tekken would more follow up treatment to keep the games fresh.

I want gameplay to analyze. I'm really curious what new mechanic they'll be adding this time.
I mean they have to change up the gameplay system somewhat. TTT2 can't be topped.
I would love TTT2 on PC. But I doubt that's gonna happen.
I think the most likely scenario is Tekken revolution on PS4.
F2P and a pretty popular title among online players.Plus the game can benefit from roster updates and pretty good exposure before Tekken 7.
What I really want is T6BR-HD.Extremely unlikely lol.
I would only want T6BR-HD if they did massive improvement to the netcode.
I wasn't too big a fan of the F2P model, though.
Time clock in this thread.

Ofcourse! The main reason I want a T6HD is to take another shot at the online mode which totally sucked back then.
Tekken revolution's coregame is great but the RPG elements and F2P stuff sucked,unfortunately.
Yeah, I hated the leveling up aspect of it. Just keep that stuff out of Tekken.
And no prob. Fox.
