I'd imagine SFxT would be the man for the job here. I don't reckon I'll be buying it any time soon, but I reckon I'd still enter the tournament just to play a match or two in it, if nothing else. Destined to be one of the main attractions this time around.

Well won't SFxT pull in the tekken crowd now anyway. From what I have seen the Tekken cast play like they always did but on a 2d plane. . . . .unless the 2d is turning them away

This game is completely different to Tekken.

I doubt many Tekken only players will enjoy it.

the 1st hardter · 21-02-2012, 20:48

Ah ok. Been missing from the internet for the last 2 months or so (don't ask) and missed all the streams and trailers. I was under the impression that the Tekken Cast still used the same control scheme of Tekken and had a dodge move to "simulate" side stepping. Have to go look up interviews and VODS now

CXC4 is on that day. Might want to try the 31st.

Also, I don't get the reasoning behind replacing KOF XIII (because it "takes too long") with SFxT, which will take at least as long, thanks our good friends the gems (you can quote me on that).

The difference is that more people will play SFxT. I'm a KoF fan, but it really doesn't have the numbers to compete with it.

Is there going to be anything KoF related at CxC4?

I...what the hell. Alright, 31st, here we come

Also, we'll figure out gems. Once the game drops, we'll either have a "no gems mode" or just a set set of gems like they did in the beta build.

the 1st hardter · 21-02-2012, 23:25

Looks like every character has 3 sets of gems by default you can edit. Just say you have to use them, simple enough. From what I could see at WNF it never took longer than a minute to sort them out. I still think everyone is blowing this whole gem thing out of proportion. But will see on launch day

Having played the game quite a bit, I am quoting you, to say that you are wrong.

That's just how it works for the beta build, not for the final release. You can choose specific gems in that.

the 1st hardter · 22-02-2012, 00:24

God dam it Capcom. Every time I see something I like it turns out to not be in the final version

stev0knev022 · 22-02-2012, 00:55

Can you choose to not use gems, i prefer my fighting games to be non glowy.

You can not pick any gems but your opponent can still pick them.

Voa, you sure it wasn't you that hit your head and was concussed on sunday night? Paddy's day? I'd be demanding it off for my anniversary and the ireland match anyway. And yeah, i'm gonna throw in for SFXT, cause it seemed like massive fun in Cannes, fun to watch, fun to play, and the matches are blessedly short, so from timing point of view it just works.
