Tekken Tag Tournament 2 |OT| Awaiting the "Final Battle"
- Thread starter AAK
- Start date
Well, if you are able to, I hope you get it.
It'll be a fun, fresh new experience since you haven't dabbled much with the previous Smash games.
Plus, yes, I also need to play that Bayonetta 2 and more Mario Kart 8.
It's 11 p.m. EST according to SRK.

GGs AAK and Doomshine.
@AAK: The connection was actually better than usual, although it lagged really bad. Still, fun games.
@Doomshine: Marduk too strong. That combo ender where he throws his opponent at the wall is not even scaled (it's a throw afterall). How much damage does it deal? 30/35? And dumb question, but is it escapable?
I dropped every combo with Leo. I have to go to practice mode with her and Ling. To be honest though, something also felt off today. I feel like my pad is not going to live much longer. It's either me doing a lot of wrong inputs or my pad not responding properly.

But your connection this time was better than usual.GG's guys, was definitely fun. But as always, sorry for my bootleg connection. Excuse my country until we get a better internet service
I already have a Wii U.
And LOL when the Wii U version drops no one will give a fuck about the 3DS version.

Can't even tell.
I imagine they want to save it for the end.
Is there a direct stream link? I don't know how Nico Nico works and what to click on.

Ah, I see.

How do I view the stream? This site makes no sense.

I think you might need to create an account if you don't have one. Should be a sign up option at the top.

So I looked at Wonkey's article again:
http://www.avoidingthepuddle.com/ne...ement-will-be-made-at-the-namco-sugamo-c.html
It specifically says:
"The Namco Sugamo Cup is occurring this weekend starting from the Saturday up until the Monday in Japan at the Namco Sugamo game center with the Tekken 7 announcement being made and streamed on niconico during the 3on3 Tournament event."
So it's gonna happen on the stream for sure. I'm pretty sure there's gonna be no gameplay. Just maybe some news or something about when the location tests will be held. I'm not gonna anticipate it personally. I think I'll try to wake up for Fajr and see if anything was revealed then. Until then it's peace
I think I'll try to regularly play every Saturday for some online Tekken. I started to do online sessions again with my local community every thursday where they gather at a local college. Every week there are about 20 (and up to 30) people that come to play games. The vast majority play Smash Bros followed by USF4. But ElNeef does come and we play some games and try to get other people potentially excited. One of the guilty gear players there is pretty good at VF5 so I do get a lot of fun times playing against him. Man fighting games offline is just so special
EDIT: Yeah after even more examination... Harada only addressed his Japanese fan base directing them to the niconico stream:
https://twitter.com/Harada_TEKKEN/status/510963045867073536
If there was some footage or gameplay to be revealed it would have been in English as well. As Wonkey said, Harada is probably just going to announce WHEN the game will have an arcade location test and that's it. Nothing tangible for us to dissect unfortunately

Yeah, I'm not gonna keep watching this stream in hopes of what could potentially be nothing. Will go to sleep on my regular schedule.
I had before decided to stay up late to watch that Sony Japan conference because Harada was going to be there and it was a complete waste of my time (i.e. Project Morpheus came out of that). Not gonna let that happen again. haha.
And yes, online matches are nothing compared to offline.

Someone in the stream chat said Harada have my babies LOL.
Yeah, I read that, lol.
Well, I can't seem to fall asleep.
Guess I'll just watch the stream until I'm sleepy enough, haha.

Tekken 7 location test is 10/3 - 10/5.

What is a location test exactly?
FormallyFamicom

They roll out an early version of the game to let people play with it and give feedback. A test on "location", basically for the public.
Wow same day as Smash 3DS. Also Sayah I'm also thinking of waiting for the Wii U version. I'm hoping Nintendo has some surprises for its launch.
That's all? As expected, really.
I don't have a Wii U, so I'll get Smash 3DS. I don't have the money for a Wii U right now, and the PS4 has a higher priority to be honest.

Thanks. That means the game must fairly far along in development, right?
Did some googling and found a blog detailing a Tekken 6 location test dated 11.20.2007 (a week before its arcade release). I'm guessing they go through a few of these leading up to it, though.

Yes, various tests then a mainstream arcade release which still gets tweaked and then a console release.

Oh yeah, but it's the only time you can see a lot of stuff you'll never see again, broken moves, effects. Like in this location test of Tekken 6 you can see burning hands for rage and no bound.

Even important things like bound may be designed at later stages.
God, I hope we'll see a lot of T7 beta.
MrCookiepants

Huh, It looks like a shinier T5. Kinda crazy that bound was added in the last couple months. Burning hands is lol.
Ahh I can't wait 3 weeks.

Can be the Tag2 Unshō Ishizuka because he voiced Old Hei in Blood Vengence and SFxTK anyway.
Tentative T7 roster minus new characters?
Anna is there. Anna is THERE!!!!
I'll still keep hope up.

Harada said the graphics will only be at 50% when the tests are held so I wonder what it looks like now.
I am curious about the overall aesthetic of the game and how the characters look and stages.

50%?
I'm assuming they haven't completed the character rendering so I don't expect mindblowing graphics.
From this Bana passports showcase I'm thinking the characters in loc test will be Kaz, Hei and ?.
This could be super early test after all. Like pre alpha.
They were like Kazuya wasn't in Tekken 3 and Anna wasn't in Tekken 4. They have equal representation as far as veteran status goes. Better just pick one character between the two for Tekken 7. Let's go with Anna.
Opening intro for Tekken 7 will show Kazuya being thrown into a volcano by Heihachi again and unfortunately missing from the King of Iron Fist Tournament 7. Sorry Kazuya fans. Devs decided too much Mishima representation. Needed more Williams to balance things out.
Richard Williams and Heather Williams also announced as new characters.

I'd be fine if those were all the characters

Haha, not that equal representation. She was just clone sub boss in T1, T2. She was missing in T3 Arcades, bonus character on Psx. She got most of her new and original moveset in T5. Just saying.
Now it would be unfair to cut her off since she's not just Nina B. I'm sure any missing character like Anna, A.King or Jun (Baek?) will be back in update like: Tekken 7: True Final Battle No Shit.
Richard Williams would rock hard.
