The BlazBlue Thread: all the imports!

How are all the Gainax anime in the same universe? I'd love to hear where you heard this.

I think Gates was being facetious. Don't go blowing up like SuSa did over his anime.

That idea is not happening.

It was already asked to someone who works at ASW. Guys name is Pachi. He's actually a former SBO winning GG player. He also designed Hazama's gameplay. BB is the fighting game focus right now.

 

[Zero_Gamer]

Gainax likes to reference their animes in their other animes. Like, how you can see the Evangelion girls in the bath house episode of Gurren Lagann.

I still don't understand why GG:AC isn't on XBL/PSN. Wouldn't it help generate revenue? Why was #Reload available for download when it's obsolete? Trolling?

SuSa only likes anime where he can find an attractive moeblob female character to be his waifu.

I remember someone was asking about Litchi videos in CS II:

http://www.youtube.com/user/jourdal#p/u/32/X0tTZmW4tW4

I didn't learn much about what she can do since this player didn't do any big bnbs. I knew that 6a [m] didn't bounce the opponent anymore, but I guess you can still combo off of it, as he gets a combo at 5:07. And I'm liking that 6c [m] knocks down now and gives you a chance to combo off of it as well.

http://www.youtube.com/user/jourdal#p/u/33/MRnDCZwr9EI

Oh wow, her forward throw doesn't launch anymore. Also it looks like she can still do big damage with her combos, there's a neat one at 1:28. She looks so different, I'll have to troll DL later today.

 

[Lythium]

Is it just me or is her corner push scarier than before? Her DP doesn't look so good anymore, but I can't remember the last time I watched a Litchi vid, so that might just be my imagination.

edit: Some more CSII vids.

There's some Tao, Rachel, Carl, Noel, Tager, and Mu. And each match is linked in the description, so you can skip ahead, if you like.

I like how Noel actually has a pressure game now.

Who needs pressure when you can mash on invincible D moves and get 4-6k off of them?

 

[Sukai]

lol @ Panty getting more fans because of episode 12

wheres the Stocchan love at? uh?

and needs more CS2 Tsubaki vids

Right here.

Anyway, I translated and compiled Arakune changes for CSII for those interested.

Buffs

• f.g (homes in, comboable, 100% curse)
• *You could be able to backdash it, but it's strict
• Forward dash is faster
• 6c, derivative 5c, derivative 2c, grab and air grab all do more damage
• j.b has less knockback (easier to combo with I assume)
• 2a > 5a, 5a > 2a gatlings
• 5a's increased attack level
• 5a's hitbox can hit crouching opponents
• j.a's increased attack level
• 5b > 6b gatling
• D bug hits Mu on the way up
• 6a is air unblockable
• 6b is air unblockable

Nerfs

• Dive, j.236c, 6c rekka, 5c and 2c all have repeat move penalty.
• 5f jump
• 2c and 5c Fatal counter combos. (what is nerfed about this?)
• Slower back dash (you can see and 5a it)
• Corner Teleport (j.44 in corner) is much slower (like 3 times slower)
• Command Teleports are slower
• 2f landing recovery after air grab (Thanks Hiago)
• Curse time seems to drain faster than CS1 when Arakune is taking damage (Daifunka drains a lot of Curse meter, Makoto corner combo drains 90% curse meter)
• 6a is slower
• 5a, 5c, and dive all do 1 point less damage(confirm?)
• Cloud only lasts 6 seconds, more start up (Hiago: he can use cloud right after his beam super)
• j.c's *startup (thanks hiago) is slower
• j.b is weaker.
• f.g hits low.
• All bugs seem slower (except D bug)

Indifferent changes

• D bug descends faster (but it gets less hits in, less hitstop)
• C bug > D bug is harder (nothing specific is stated, probably related to D bug's speed)
• Old 6b is 4b
• Party bug is summoned further away (falls faster)
• (5a >) 6b is now standalone 6b (start up is fast)
• Combo rate is now 80%

 

[Lythium]

Who needs pressure when you can mash on invincible D moves and get 4-6k off of them?

Because that's no fun.

 

[LivewiresXe]

Anything that lets me win more easily is fun, Lythium, so I disagree.

 

[Zero_Gamer]

Hakumen: Empty Sky, True Form, LIGHT OF JUDGMENT!
Makoto: NUTS FOR YOOUUUUU
Makoto: NUTS FOR YOOUUUUU
Makoto: HIIYAAA
Makoto: ASTEROID VISION ~ HIIYAAA
Makoto: ASTEROID VISION ~ HIIYAAA
Makoto: COMET CANON ~ HIIYAAA
Makoto: Something shining inside of me ~ BIG BAAANG SMAAAAASH
Makoto: Something shining inside of me ~ BIG BAAANG SMAAAAASH


The End

Feel free to imagine Hakumen saying, "NOT BAD!" or, "NOT YET!" in between each hit.

 

[Wave⁂]

TRANSPARENT.

[Lythium]

I really don't understand how people can play online, especially ranked.

I just tried player matches after a long hiatus, and now I remember why I don't play online.

Wow, just wow.

 

[Raziek]

Because something > Nothing, and we're actually lucky enough to have a reasonably sized offline community for the game?

 

[Lythium]

Obv.

It was a rhetorical question.

But still.

Wow, just wow.

BBCS2 Noel Combo Movie

Hail to the queen.

 

[LivewiresXe]

That'd be awesome helpful if I could read WTF the Japanese symbols in the combos were, lol.

 

[Pitzer]

This vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeyXdAnrbiA&feature=related It's pretty good.

 

[Lythium]

They all say "throw" or "dash" or whatever.

Some of them say optic barrel.

You can match up the notation to the video.

Yeah, but that takes effort, lol. Can't they just say 66 or BC or something?

 

[Raziek]

Watched that vid. (Not the Noel vid)

3C -> Mizuchi?!?

TK 214B IN LEGITIMATE COMBOS?

UNADULTERED FACE-****?!?!

I came rainbows.

 

[Pikaville]

That Hazama video was pretty bad ***.

I must look up some videos of this game even though I only play with friends......and by play I mean **** consistently.

 

[Lore]

GGs, Espy! I had fun, even though I had to leave.

But man, my Arakune trashed your Hazama.

 

[Espy Rose]

Spin stick, win game, Were. :>
The announcer for CS2 is making me cry. It's like they're getting worse and worse with each new update.

 

[Smooth Criminal]

Spin stick, win game, Were. :>

I could take that as "spin on it and rotate," but I won't.

:3

[Espy Rose]

Tager looks so much more scary now in CS2.
I love it so much.

 

[Lore]

@Espy: Haha, yeah, my Tager sucks online.

I could take that as "spin on it and rotate," but I won't.

You... Aren't supposed to do that?

 

[Smooth Criminal]

Tager looks so much more scary now in CS2.
I love it so much.

You still play that stoopid character?

D:

You suck, Espy.

[Espy Rose]
