Tekken 7 Discussion Thread

Is there a confirmed full character list yet, I have yet to see Yoshimitsu.

Devil Kazuya has an extension to his hellsweep, which I wager is done by CD+4,1UF as is his CD+1UF. So this, mid-EWGF, Jinpachi's Reverse Bear Hug and standing Twin Pistons, Devil Kaz is looking more godlike.

"Tekken is dead cuz Lili is nerfed" ~ some random Lili in 2012.

Tekken is dead cause Lili is buffed.

some interesting changes to combo system. Apparently the scaling in combos has changed to boost the damage of shorter combo. So for example Paul's df+2, filler, spin attack, finisher does the same damage as Paul df+2,qcf+2. So any of those who dislike T6 - TTT2 combo system can get reward for something shorter.

So what's the point of spin combos, you ask? One thing to consider is that the combo scaling is reset in combos that features the wall or have any floor breaks and wall breaks. This means that you can still receive worthwhile damage in your long combos, but only if you utilize your in-game surroundings correctly.

Very interesting. I quite like this change. There's further explanation for this combo system in the link below.

If characters have short combos that can lead to a wall splat, then the damage will end up being absurd.

Can you wall splat twice in one combo?

Nope. Wall carry and wall splat are two different things. I'm confident the reset percentage for carrying to the wall in T7 is not 100% (that would be insane), but is higher than what it was for T6-TTT2.

If you get a direct wallsplat, some characters can resplat. Altho it's very finicky with wall axis so most people won't try it.

Even still, that sort of resplat scales so I don't personally consider it to be a true second wallspat.

But if damage scaling is reset for a wall splat, then you could get a high damage, low execution combo > wall splat to reset the scaling > combo > wall splat to reset scaling > combo.

It's really only possible to re-splat from a direct wall-splat. When you wall carry the comboed char sinks to the ground faster than they do from a direct wall splat.

Trust me, if you could do this level of damage that you posted, the Japanese players would have discovered it already and be posting it on the internet.

Devil Jin is in Tekken 7. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

**** that's mad.

Jin was recently discovered as a secret sub-boss in the arcade mode. There's been a few ow-quality vids released since last night. I'll go through the changes myself and Bilal have found out so far.

-His power crush is a new move. Not sure of the notation. Looks similar to Raven's df+3.
-A new animation of db+2,3 where Jin now does a stomp instead. Looks like an old bound move used to spike.
-Hopkick launches normally (ie.as the CH version did in TTT2) on both NH and CH.
-And now for a big buff. EWHF launches on NH now.

The '3' is a steal of the animation from Hei's d+3.

His ECD1 must be really negative on block then. Maybe even launch.
I can see why his d/b+3,2 was nerved also. One of his best mids so it took a hit. His mids across the board will take a hit I'd imagine.

Remember when Harada spoke about coming up with someone who can defeat Devil Kaz?
I'd say Devil Jin is gonna be sooooo OP.
I'd imagine Jin will have a similar transition to DVJ as Kaz does to DVKaz i.e. only available in rage mode.
That's my thoughts anyway.

Wonder how Jin is gonna fit into the Mishima sega storyline. It just seems like personal beef with Hei and Kaz.

I'm more curious as how Devil Jin is gonna fit actually. Wasn't the whole point of T6's Scenario Campaign storyline for Jin to finally abolish his Devil Gene (via causing worldwide war and destruction, no less)? Hopefully Devil Jin's presence is kind of like Evil Ryu in SF4, not a part of the story but just as a "what if " character. Otherwise it'll already have tarnished the already soiled reputation of the T6 storyline
