Its official. Blazblue: Continuum Shift Port

Yup im excited. Seems like FG's are really making a comeback. I love SSF4 but i feel it is a bit wanting. Iceing on the cake for it would of been 3s's parrying. First SSF4, KoF13, now a port of this exciting news. Only thing im waiting on is an official VF5FS port now

 

Soo I'm the only one that has this already?? Lol

 

lol. you got it from chinatown did you?? xD

 

lol, i knew it would inevitably get it's own thread.

well, take it from one of the best hakumen players in the country and the guy that bought the mook; this game is a huge fucking letdown.

nothing in this game makes any goddamn sense. everything keeps you in blockstun forever, most characters win by running away, the few rushdown characters in this game (bang, ragna) have virtually no proration on anything (bang's 5A will score a 4K combo if you RC, lol) and overall they didn't really fix anything. the game is marginally more balanced than ct, yet only half as fun.

i stopped playing this game only two months after they got it here in norcal. the day all of my suspicions about this game were confirmed was the day we literally had a 6 hour long 32 man tournament because this game is so fucking slow and even good players win by running out the clock.

it's a shame, because they really could have taken this game anywhere, but all they really did was slow it down and make it boring as hell. console changes may make the game interesting again, but i wouldn't hold my breath.

play melty blood

 

Are you serious? I was really looking forward to this one. I have also noticed that matches do seem to be running out of time more often then they did in CT. I heard they were going to change the balance in the console version and patch the arcade version later on.

 

look at bbcs matches on youtube/nico.

combos take forever (for no real reason other than to take forever), zoning and footsies consist of holding 7 and pressing your C/D button, and characters like hazama almost never win without running out the clock.

boring to watch, boring to play. i'm sticking with guilty gear until arcsys gets their shit together with this game.
