The BlazBlue Thread: all the imports!

[Lythium]

I think it depends on how you want to go about learning stuff. When I pick up a character, I find the moves or pokes that I get a lot of hits with over the course of a match, and learn how to combo off of those hits. And then keep going from there.

But whatever works for you~

 

[LivewiresXe]

Get a mic! The Blazblue community is a bunch of Chatty Cathys.

Haha, yeah. That we certainly are.

I actually do have a mic. Came with my xbox.

Always thought of playing just basic when it comes to these types of games before going on to bigger things, eh... I'm not really sure guessing I'd just have to play more. Thanks!

 

[Smooth Criminal]

They're also Canadian!


...at least on Smashboards they are.

Be on the lookout for funny-sounding accents to ruthlessly needle them about!

[Spelt]

There's a bunch of 360 players here, I'm sure they wouldn't mind playing with you. :3c

Yeah, I can play you and give you tips on what you should work on and whatnot.

/insert joke about Canadian health care

Also welcome, new guy! I'll be back home tomorrow evening so if you wanna play and learn sometime, lemme know!

 

[Raziek]

Everyone knows Canada is superior.

 

[LivewiresXe]

Agreed. Central Canada>all.

Alberta da bess...

Except for Kuraudo.

[Raziek]

Does your flag have a lion on it? Didn't think so.

Nova Scotia da bess.

No, but I bet nobody else can say their flag looks like it was copy/pasted in Paint!

Hey, Florida's is pretty similar. Except it's red and we have this weird lady with flowers.
And boats...

[COLLAPSE="Florida flag"]

[/COLLAPSE]

Great seal of the state of Florida, what the hell?

Ah who cares, what other place in North America likes to throw so many people and stuff into space for fun SCIENCE!!!

 

[Lythium]

I like Rutger's. :3

Canada has some pretty terrible flags. NS is clearly one of the best, when you compare them to all the others. Also, Manitoba/Ontario and NB/PEI clearly just copied their flags off of each other. Therefore, they suck and are cheaters. The rest of them kinda suck, except maybe Yukon.

 

[Lore]

America.. **** YEAH!

Anyway, now that that's out of the way, I got Extend as an Easter gift today. :3

 

[Lythium]

Haha, good job. :3

You should play with us sometime.

 

[KuroganeHammer]

So, why does Tsubaki suck again?

/me bad at Extend obv; doesn't really see why Ragna is so OP either etc

 

[Rutger]

Because taping D for 1 full Install meter was pretty silly, but Arcsys didn't really make up for that nerf.

But no one really sucks in Ex, it has good balance. :/

 

[Lore]

Haha, good job. :3

I should... After I relearn this game. I'm getting stomped by the CPU's.

 

[Lythium]

She doesn't really suck, she's just not as good as most of the cast.

She's got a lot of good, solid tools, but she is dependent on her charge availability, and good management of it. Also, one of Tsubaki's problems has always been a choice of giving up momentum for charge, or keeping her momentum and doing mediocre damage with no charge.

Stop playing CPUs then.

 

[Lore]

I think my problem is that I got too used to Noel's drive = Easy Mode, haha. I'm having to actually learn combos now.

Edit: Dear god, that announcer. Time to look at DLC.

So far I've been quite impressed with her normals (EXCEPT standing a, bleh), and I like her :stick6: + C, but I haven't quite figured out how to combo into it yet without the 3 button cancel thing (I call it Baroque, lol).

Hmm, well. Her 5A is actually a pretty good jab, despite it's short range. It hits crouching opponents (which is awesome, because most jabs don't), it starts up pretty fast, and it has godlike proration.

I don't use 6C a whole lot, except in fancy combos.

 

[Lore]

THERE'S A KOKONOE ANNOUNCER!

It's the Japanese VA and is six bucks, but still. :3c

 

[Rutger]

$6 for an announcer?

That's about 1/3 the price of Skullgirls.

That's ridiculous.

 

[Lore]

Yeah... it's a bit much.

There aren't any free announcers, are there? >_>

 

[Minato]

There are. You can unlock them in the gallery.

At least the Kokonoe announcer is one of the better DLC announcers to get. I'm gonna get it once I start playing, as I cannot stand the default announcer. But man, do I wish we could get back the CS announcer.

[COLLAPSE="Check this out."]You think your flags are awesome? Check out CA's flag. We have a freaking bear on it. How can you beat that?

So wait, the $10 on the new Uncharted 3 map pack, and $6 on a DLC announcer for Extend is almost as much as Skullgirls? Hmmm....meh, would still rather get the DLC.

 

[Lore]

Really? Awesome! Any idea how?

Extra colors and announcers from BBCS can be unlocked by level and points. You can do this by playing online or any of the other modes, really. Then just go to the gallery and scroll down until you find them.

Werekill, just play Abyss mode. You get so many points doing that. And it's fun being über hax.

 

[C.S. Dinah]

It takes forever to level up in EX, I want to get Tsubaki's additional colors already! Dx

Powering through story mode and playin online will help you level up as well.

 

[Minato]

I leveled up through mostly Challenge mode. I really don't recommend it unless you know multiple characters or have good execution though XD.

 

[C.S. Dinah]

I spend most of my time in challenge mode and I haven't noticed any increase in level :/

Didn't know playing Story mode did that either. lol

Awesome! I'm glad I heard this before I paid 6 bucks, haha, and unlocking extra colors is always good. :3

Is there any way to check my level? I'm at a different place than my house, and this sd tv is icky.

 

[Rutger]

I used netplay mostly, but there's no one on ranked anymore really for that to be worth it. :/

You only need to be level 8 or 9 for all the colors iirc, so it's not too bad.

At this point, I'm actually doing it in a parody style, Minato, since the game's fine.


Also, I swore I unlocked an announcer through leveling up, but I can't seem to change the system voice to it...weird.
