11 Tager
06 Hakumen Bang
05 Jin Noel Litchi Tsubaki
04 Ragna Rachel Arakune Taokaka Carl
03 Λ-11-

- option select tech throw still works
- Heat Gauge goes up automatically from the beginning of the round (I think this is just for loketest to make people can try supers easier)



Appearance
- Projectile such as Arakune's Bee and Rachel's flog has a circle around them, easier to identify
- better animation
- new effect, new voice
- life bar turns red when it is extremely low
- New pictures for character select screen





- Λ-11- Lambda

yep this is an entirely new game the animation on character select prooves it , they say it coming out next year, I will still buy it if its a new game or Downloadable content cant wait.

If its an entirely new game it better damn well be $10 cuz i aint forking over $60 for an expansion. It better be a $10-$15 DLC.

unless you have another different storyline,etc. its worth 60 but if its not and just an expansion it better be 15 dollars but I bet it will be at least 30 dollars.

Even if it did include a new story (which it will) it wouldnt be $60 since we'll only going to play through at least once or twice, Fallout 3 expansions include a new story, weapons and levels; all that for only $10. Id say its $10-$20 minimun. im sure Aksys is listening to their fans right now.

they should and lets hope the price ranges to at least $20.

After watching an interview for SUPER Street Fighter 4, i am convinced that this will be a rerelease and not as DLC

Haku-Men's new attack?


Terimu/Hazama is a playable character now


Profile
Height: 183 cm
Weight: 61 kg

CV: Yuichi Nakamura

General Information:
Drive: Ouroborus - Summons chains which can hang in the air, be launched at enemies, or be used for transportation by swinging from an axis. It might also be able to ensnare his opponent.

He wields knives and will apparantly be a speed-based character.

hmmmm I knew he would be in the game I actually want to start playing this now.

damn it does look way better in design than the last one I am buying this but they should also include jubei as a playable character that would be awesome. Nice character select screen dough.

Character Update
Tager is much smaller and moves faster than before (walks faster).
Rachel is changed severely. She is almost unplayable in this version. Definitely the worst character changed.
Jin's dash cancel is now a regular dash. Most of his attacks are now slower than before (i.e. the spamming attacks)
Arakune gets Negative Penalty really quick, two back dash gets the penalty warning. Back dash is quicker and shorter.
Carl's air throw infinite is gone.
Hakumen just has 2 new moves. Most of attacks does less damage than before (YESH!)
Lambda's attacks are a bit slower than before. They are also a bit weaker. Λ-11 gets negative penalty much faster now, 3 ~ 4 backdashes she gets the warning.

-------------------------------------------------------
Ill post all the details once we get to the second page
-------------------------------------------------------

System
Guard Libra is replaced by Guard Primer

Guard Primer points total varies by characters. Blocking specific moves takes away Guard Primer points. When the character has no more points they get guard breaked.
Guard Primer points count:
11 Tager
06 Hakumen Bang
05 Jin Noel Litchi Tsubaki
04 Ragna Rachel Arakune Taokaka Carl
03 Λ-11

New Burst System

Burst system is separated from Barrier gauge. You don't lose your Barrier gauge and enter DANGER mode after burst. You can stock up to 2 bursts. You start with one burst and get one extra burst next round if you lose the round. When regular gold burst hits opponent, opponent will bounce high and able to combo from there (no more Guard break by gold burst) Life bar still goes into DANGER mode if Barrier gauge runs out.

Astral Heat
All of them are unlocked. In addition, you can use this move when opponent's health bar is below 20% and you are one round away from winning the match. (Not final round!)

Down Recovery

Remember you could cancel the tech roll to special moves? It's removed in this one that you can no longer cancel the latter motion of tech roll forward and backward to special moves.

Beginner Mode

N = Normal Attack button
H = Heavy Attack button
S = Special Attack button
T = Throw button
Tap Normal Attack multiple times for simple revolver action string. You may add Heavy Attack in between for string variations.
To perform special moves, simply input direction + Special Attack.
To perform Distortion Drive, simply input N + H.

LMFAO, LMFAO, LOL...... i like how Noel is complaining about Rachael being overpowered at the same time showing her panties while being on the ground.

Hazama's basic moves and combos


* Hazama's →→ is a short step forward.
Standing A: standing poke.
Standing B: standing knee, links from A and ↓A.
Standing C: Cross slash, jump cancelable on block, links from A and ↓A.
↓A: quick crouching jab, even on block.
↓B: crouching kick, low attack.
↓C: quick anti air strike, links from A and ↓A, jump cancelable on block.
→A: slow overhead, not cancelable.
→B: slow low attack.
→C: staggers, knockdown on counter hit.
↘C: low attack, has a good range, links to standing B and C.
Jump A: quick jumping poke.
Jump B: long diagonal kick.
Jump C: horizontal multi slash, increases hit count by mashing C, short reach.
Jump ↓C: short range slashes below.
* All jump attacks are not jump cancelable.
↓↘→D: staggers on counter hit, small disadvantage on block.↓↙←D
-> A: hop attack, overhead, links to ↓A on crouching hit, small bounce on air hit.
-> B: has upper body invincibility.
-> C: low attack, juggles opponent, links to standing B.
-> D: cancel stance.
Jump ↓↙←B: Knock down on air hit, not an overhead, has landing recovery.
↓↘→C: command throw, links to standing B afterward.
→↓↘D: launches Ouroborus (knife) upward, air unblockable, barrier guard ok, able to pick up opponent off the ground afterward.
↓↘→↓↘→B: motion similar to Johnny's →K, has invunlerable start up, launches opponent to air and untechable, risky on block.
→↘↓↙←→C: Similar to Litchi's All Green (→←↓↑C) but much slower start up with small hit box.

Drive: Ouroboros
*Extending the chain does two hits, 2nd hit may not occur depends on positioning. After 2nd hit, you may input follow ups to pull yourself towards opponent. Follow ups consumes Ouroboros counts (2 max) that takes a period of time to recover:


Standing D

shoots out the knife horizontal forward, links from standing C.
↓D: shoots directly upward.
→D: shoots slight upward, similiar to Λ-11's →D.
Jump D: shoots horizontal forward, air vs air.
Jump ↓D: shoots direction downward.
Jump →D

shoots downward, similiar to Λ-11's jump D.
Jump ←D: shoots a bit more downward than jump →D.

Follow ups:
A: stops the chain, has long recovery.
B: Moving towards opponent in a parabolic arc.
C: Moving towards opponent in a parabolic arc.
D: Moving directly towards opponent quickly.

Combo List
Starters:
Jump D (2 hit or CH) > D > land ↓A > B or C or ↓C > ↘C
↓↘→D, A > ↓A > B or C or ↓C > ↘C
↓↘→C > ↓A > B or C or ↓C > ↘C

Patch #1:
~ > ↘C > ↓↘→D, C > dash C > ↓C > →↓↘D > ~
~ > ↘C > ↓↘→D, D > dash ↓B > ↓C > →↓↘D > ~
~ > ↘C > ↓↘→↓↘→B > dash C > →↓↘D > ~

Patch #2:
~ > →↓↘D > dash ↓↘→D, C > dash C > ↓C > →↓↘D > ~
~ > →↓↘D > J→D, D > land B > ↓C > →↓↘D > ~
~ > →↓↘D > low air dash J↓C > land ↓C > →↓↘D > ~

this Hazama kind of looks like Johnny
