Guilty Gear XX : Accent Core

[!DIABLO GTR!]

Yay,

mine should arrive in a week or 2 since I went budget in the shipping... 


Who is getting a copy?

Not a good time to release it considering the exams are coming up... 

[fluxcore]

Emphasis on copy? Sure... as we speak... >_<

I'm looking forward to playing something other than #R in the GG series I guess, time to read up on the AC chars and strats...

--flux

[!DIABLO GTR!]

Fine, who is buying a copy of the game? (You guys probably take the copy part literily...   )

IMO /Slash felt like a half-arsed attempt at updating Guilty Gear...

[fluxcore]

I'll buy a copy if it ever gets a local release (or in the case of KoFXI, presumably will have a local release but will have to be 'imported' from Aussie).

That's actually the reason I never played slash... I didn't have a ps2 when it came out in JP so I had no reason to download it, and there's no local release. I did buy GGXX#R though.

Don't suppose there's any news on Yifan's getting AC?

--flux

[!DIABLO GTR!]

No...   

[fluxcore]

Just started playing... I can certainly say I'm not going to be able to play slayer or eddie with any degree of decency for quite a while - subtle changes, but enough to be quite disruptive!

Plus I can't find any decent strats yet, dustloop is mighty unhelpful sometimes...

--flux

[!DIABLO GTR!]

Dustloop tends to have quite a bit of 'noobism' now... I only visit it to get the links to match vids. Some of the noobs in the character specific forums insist that something works even though the old school players specifically told them it doesn't...

[Coddfish]

Millia's forum seems decent... ish. TGS and Teyah seem to have a decent grip on things, anyway.

You guys are lucky! I can't get it now, because I don't really trust South Africa's postal system. No way are they gonna steal my AC.
Anyway, I pirated Slash just before I left, I figured they changed Millia so damn much between #R and /S, that they wouldn't do it again in AC. So I could learn /S Millia and adapt for AC.
But apparently I was wrong. She's completely changed, again. =/ Also, Millia's pinloops in /S are a fucking bitch.

[Zenki]

so far AC seems real good for me after practicing a bit on PS2.
I don't think Yifans can get it too soon eh.....

Some juggle footage of my own:

I think part of my problem with dustloop is that all the talk is about changes from Slash, and since I never caught up with the changes IN slash, I'm kinda behind

Just gotta watch a lotta vids, and get practicing I guess!

Oh, and O_o at your combos, Zenki... wah!

--flux

[!DIABLO GTR!]

Coddfish: The Ice Prince guy seriously noobs up the place though...
/S Millia combos are kinda boring IMO...

Zenki: Nice sh!T dog! I'll just be waiting for my copy to arrive not very soon... 

fluxcore: /Slash is sh!T, forget about it  The only good thing about /Slash was Ky stun edge lockdowns in the corner... 

[Coddfish]

Ky is top-tier in /S!

'nuff said.




(can't stand paladin-types like him)



I actually liked /S combos. Whats she using in AC now, ACD loops or something? I hate  the thought of filtering through 20~ pages of AC speculation

[fluxcore]

That's my other problem with dust loop... each thread for AC goes back to before the game was even out, and as you say there's 20 pages of theory fighter. I find if you go to page 50 and work back there can be some good stuff, but it's really horribly managed.

--flux

[!DIABLO GTR!]

Coddfish: If you've played Melty Blood, think Nero/Warakia type combo and air movement. Otherwise, yeah, she air dashes after air attacks. e.g. j.S, 66, j.K, j.S

fluxcore: All the latest pages should contain confirmed stuff.

Come to think of it, my AC should arrive in the next few days...

[!DIABLO GTR!]

Yay, got my AC in the mailbox!

It came with an awesome solar powered Sol and Ky keychain...  Unfortunately it's the ghey Sol and Ky tango dancing image...
