Is this |OT|? I don't wanna waste a post.
I'm getting it day one when it's out here, on 360. In the next couple weeks I'm going to go back and finally play through the story in Calamity Trigger before since I never really bothered with it before.Same here. Finding all the different story branches for every character was too annoying.
This is also the last 2010 game that I'm really looking forward to :rock
Dunno if I'm gonna buy it or gamefly it. Either way I'll be playing it when it comes out. I gotta try out their new character named Makoto. :dur

I like how it looked on the PC emu but the gameplay feels really slow, compared to SF4. Will the legit home versions have game speed settings?
Those sticks look sweet btw. I wanna get one even though I already have a SF4 TE. WTF do they cost so much more though?
Since I ended up skipping out on the first one, I'll probably pick this up for 360 whenever it comes out.
Did you have the game working properly? BB is faster than SF4, IMO."IMO"? No. It's a fact that BlazBlue is faster.

It could be the emulator not working properly. The emulation seems to be pretty janky. You can't even change the freaking resolution.
However, the videos I've seen on youtube don't show the game moving that fast either. The special moves are fast but walking/jumping seems pretty slow. Maybe it's due to sprites instead of polygons?
I guess I can check out the PSP version to confirm.
No, I haven't try the patch. I'll try it but I really wish there was a legit version for the PC though. Kinda ridiculous if my rig can handle SF4 at 300fps in 1080p but not Blazblue.
It doesn't run in 720p for me. It's some weird resolution like 1280x960. Maybe that's the problem? I know Nvidia hardware have some problems with non-standard resolutions.
Tager is mine! Don't you touch him!

Basically what I read was that the Taito-X2 system that BB runs on is a Windows XP PC with tech that is dated and really nothing any PC today couldn't handle, but the games are made to run on that specific hardware set-up, and if you have something that isn't close enough to it, you'll have issues. Whether that's bullshit or not, I don't know.
A legit version will probably end up hitting the PC at some point. I can't remember if they decided to scrap the STILL unreleased BlazBlue Calamity Trigger PC port in Europe and go right for Continuum Shift or not.
In a way, I wonder if the game getting "emulated" on PCs was a good thing -for us at least-. The home version is getting a crapload of new content over the arcade version. But it has to suck for Arc System Works. Forget people playing it at home. There are people who can easily pirate it and make bootleg arcade set-ups out of it, and that's got to be a much bigger concern for them. You'd think companies would stop supporting the X2 after this debacle, but games are still being made for it. I've heard that other games have already been dumped for use on PCs too, but no one has released them yet.
Yeah, I was surprised to see you can't play her in Arcade. So lame. I haven't unlocked Mu yet either so I didn't know that. You can play her in score attack at least, which is what I'm trying now for the first time, and goddamn the AI is no joke in here.
Anyway, Makoto is really fun. I might even switch over to her permanently.
Same here. I'd been using Taokaka and Makoto feels like a more-fun close-range fighter. Although I do miss that insane mobility Tao has...
I got RAPED when I tried fighting a Tager, though. Could not figure out how how to approach him with Makoto.
BlazBlue has the best achievements icons. I just noticed this one is the kira pose that Ranka does in Macross Frontier: (http://tiles.xbox.com/tiles/FQ/R8/0Wdsb2JhbC9ACRsBGl9TVkRBL2FjaC8wLzM0AAAAAAAAAP5TBAk=.jpg) And another good one:spoiler (click to show/hide)(http://www.trueachievements.com/imagestore/0000285500/285549.jpg) :teehee[close]
Still, the gaijin 4koma icon from BBCT will never be topped.
Going to start story mode in a minute. Hopefully they improved it some.
I already gave my hard earned money for the original. Don't feel any need to pay more for minor updates ala GGXX#special_plus^2
I'll buy Blazblue 2
At any rate, I think I'll be sticking with Makoto. I like how she doesn't have super long combo strings and she's not completely unorthodox. Just a complete rushdown character who can dish out some major damage. She has a meterless corner combo that does 4700 damage (5700? with meter) :oSounds like SSF4's Makoto, but not gimped. Looks like I might use her and Hakumen when I get the game.
Lyte, why did you drop Litchi?
Maybe I need to try someone who's better at zoning and ranged combat instead, but I do like Makoto.:bow Hakumen :bow2
There have been a lot of changes made in CS from CT. Some characters feel pretty different now. They could have called the game "BlazBlue 2" and it would have worked.
There were lots of changes between GGXX iterations too :P
But the difference between GGX and GGXX is that the roster was pretty much doubled. I expect a Blazblue 2 with 20+ cast in the next year or so.
The version 1.03 patch it out now on the 360 (which is free), and so is Platinum the Trinity ($7). And they've fixed the Valkenhayn achievements!
I think I'm gonna buy all this shit and jump back in.
:rofl This game is worth it for the story mode alone. Best single player ever in a fighting gamespoiler (click to show/hide)[youtube=560,345]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xq9kf5_nV20[/youtube][close]
that video lacks taokaka!
