Yeah so it’s basically a Guilty Gear update, but imo it has gotten cooler. I only liked two or three characters in GG and so far I like that many just out of the revealed characters for this. Also the pace of play looks more comfortable to me, I don’t like it when fighters get to MvC2 level insanity.

I also can’t get over how funny it is that it says "Rebel 1." It’s even more nonsensical than GG phrases like "roman cancel." And as we all know, nonsensical phrases in Japanese games are awesome.

I also can’t get over how awesome Noel is.

It looked pretty cool, seemed more flashy than actual gameplay. I like when you input a combo and you can watch for 4 secs while your character wails on someone. But when you put in a combo and are watching 30 secs worth of fighting it, it kills the whole fighting game effect.

I don’t know that I’ve ever seen a combo longer than 4 or 5 seconds in a Guilty Gear match. GG’s actually not nearly as combo-filled as other equally hectic 2D fighters.

Man, Im going to have to get this(if it comes out for a system), I like Guilty Gear myself, and like I said before I dont like Soul Calibur all that much. Though if anybody wants to go against me its all cool im ready to lose.

I love the fact that I can insta-KO anyone within 5 seconds of the match start.

Provided I don’t miss.

True but it’s not like it comes without sacrifice. If you fail…which you have a good chance of doing because it’s obvious you’re going to use it then you lose your tension for the remainder of that match.

I’m well aware of the drawbacks, fucktard.

Then maybe you shouldn’t make comments that imply you need to be educated about the game system.

Could you at least only flame people for no reason in GD? (translation: this is me telling you to not derail threads with flames outside of GD.)

I think his ‘fucktard’ has the same meaning as dude, man, guy, and idiot. You can’t really tell what he’s trying to say anymore because he uses it so much.

Ah, the joys of the internet… You can virtually say anything and get away with it without having to worry about a fist smashing into your face :).

What implications? Is it fucking necessary to fully detail the entire post so a fucking child could understand it?

The hint is in bold. (translation: this WAS me telling you to use your brain and actually think for yourself)

I think it’s pretty obvious I’m implying only that there are drawbacks if I fail with the obliteration move. Maybe it’s too vague. I mean, missing has so meany different meanings. Especially in this context. Sorry, next time I’ll elaborate to the point where even Mooglemage could understand it.

I apologise that you had such a difficult time reading past that, TK.

edit because I wasn’t happy with original version of post.

You don’t "miss" insta-KO moves, you just don’t hit anyone with them because they suck. I’m not saying this matters, but I am saying it is not worth calling someone "fucktard" because they thought you didn’t realize that.

See, I know you like being antagonistic because this is the internet and all, and we let people do that in GD, but the problem is that if you start walking into threads like this one and calling people names because you’re having your period or whatever is going on, the threads suddenly change from discussion about a game or something to a discussion about exactly what it is that is stuck up your anus.

So, I’m serious. Don’t do it anymore. Especially not in this thread, where I’ll just delete anything else that derails it. From anybody.

Calling everyone names all the time is something people usually do when they are insecure or something. I don’t really know what your issue is but I’m dead serious here… keep it in GD. This is exactly what I didn’t want to happen.

Anything else derailing this thread (from anyone) will just get deleted.

Oh typical, "I get the last word" post. :rolleyes:

I like how thread got insta-policed, yet the countless others don’t. Never figured you to be so full of yourself TK. =/

Edit: If you notice, TK, my initial post was semi on topic, about GG’s obliteration moves. I never had any intention to flame anyone until that one user came in and tried to flash his superior knowledge on the game. Sorry, but I dislike pretentious pricks.

But whever, carry on. Everyone knows you’re always right, TK.

Double Edit: Oh and you can "miss" as in you fire it and they move.

Hmm. Very interesting game. If they do put insta-kill moves in this game perhaps they will go with the Hokuto no Ken approach. In that game, there was a meter on each character that would decrease when you where hit by a specific attack, or nailed by a good combo. when the bar was gone on your opponent the "fatal KO" attack was unlocked and you could do this attack multiple times until you hit him or he kills you. Usually the bar wouldn’t go down to zero until the later rounds so you can’t usually pull off the first round instakill like Guilty Gear, though once you hit someone with a fatal KO, they are dead no matter what and you win, period.

As a side note, the Hokuto no Ken game I’m talking about is made by the same guys that did Guilty Gear as well.

Whoa. That game looks really cool. Maybe it was just a good player, but Jin looked absurdly good. I especially liked the way he could go from defensive with the back air-dash thing with the sword projectile and that standing attack where the hitbox looked like it was pretty much the entire height of the screen in front of him, to offensive with some impressive-looking combos.

That being said, I know nothing about neither this game nor GG, so I could be completely wrong. This was just my impression from seeing the three vids.

edit:

I lol’d hard at the way the rounds (err, Rebels?) start. "The Wheel of Fate is Turning…Rebel 1…ACTION!" The "Action" with the accent was pretty neat, too.

I liked GG’s intros better.

"Heaven or Hell… Let’s Rock!"

I don’t know, the sheer randomness of "Rebel 1" was just too much for me.

Could be Japanese for "Level"

el oh el

So, Guilty Gear with a new coat of paint? =/

PRETTY MUCH

No obliteration moves, it seems.

Then I’m having a pretty ‘meh ‘ reaction right now. At least it looks pretty.

I’m more excited for KoF XII, if we’re talking in just the realm of 2-D fighters.

So, Guilty Gear with a new coat of paint? =/

Yes.

But, considering we’re on a message board devoted to Final Fantasy, I don’t see how this can be considered a bad thing?

It’s not bad, just nothing to get excited over personally.

PS3/X-Box 360 Online Battles, if it comes out for consoles.

Well, like I said, the main reason I’m interested in it is that it looks to me like it will do everything GG did right, but better and without the stuff I don’t like.

Honestly, I don’t know that I’ll ever even play it, but I will definitely look forward to watching tournament battles. I don’t think I would play online. After Brawl I don’t think I’m ever going to play fighting games online again.

That said, I’d definitely buy it if it came out for Wii, but that’s probably wishful thinking.

Brawl online sucked because Sakurai doesn’t want people to, y’know, compete. It didn’t help that Ninty’s WFC isn’t worth a crap, either. Since I’m getting a 360 come Xmas, I may pick this up if it comes to consoles. While Brawl was a serious disappointment in terms of competitiveness, it did rekindle my love of fighters, especially 2-d fighters.
