    Re: New Locationtest coming.

    I can see how your all worrying about the leap between 4 and 5. I felt the same way about 3 to 4. Like Akiralove my brother and myself got to test out vf4 before anyone at an arcade mini convention in california a few years back. At first i was really disappointed in the removal of the evade button and i didn't like the art direction at all. Then later I just got so tired of it that I just gave it up I didn't get past evo. When I went to japan last october and I got a chance to play FT I could clearly see the difference in games. It leads me to believe why sega just didn't make it like that in the first place.

    Anyway when i get my hands on vf5 this march when I go back to japan i'll let you guys know what I think. From what I can tell it does seem a little like FT. I just might have to resort to old tricks. Anyway its been a while for me and its good to be back.

    Nice to see your still at it Ice-9

    I would think this is the wrong thread to ask in but the quick answer is no. The long answer is that many characters have parries and reversals in their movelist. You should go through each characters movelist to find out which ones do what.

    VF5 Month Long Location Test

    The Japanese website has been updated and it looks like there is going to be a month long test going on from 3/28 until 4/28!

    Namflow and I will probably be in Tokyo the first week of April to check it out...

    Re: VF5 Month Long Location Test

    Well a month long location test should be long enough for players to explore the new evade and other new mechanics, so we can see if VF5 has more to offer or is really VF4 FT2...

    I actually thought the animation was the weakpoint.
    The nice thing is that the videos from VF.NET look to be a full 60 FPS, so getting frame data is going to be much more straightforward.

    Unless the Wolf player was just playing around, PK~G may be better than just P in VF5.

    [P][K][G]cancel looks alot faster to me for wolf.

    After the cancel he looks to be low throwing from the animation, but unicorn brought up a good point that it maybe because he is much bigger now and it just appears that way.

    Discuss...

    The little things

    Yeah I find it interesting that people think PKG is suddenly faster for Wolf. The cancel animation has definitely been reworked which can definitely give the illusion that it's sped up, but..... I doubt it is.

    Other little things I've noticed in this clip:

    - The english lip synching has improved 100x

    - The characters are much more vocal in game. Wolf "YEAAAH" on the giant swing. Lion "YAUUGGHH!!!" on the pounce.

    - The characters FINALLY start in an orthodox (left foot forward) stance instead of a southpaw stance (right foot forward). The orthodox stance is one commonly used by right-handed fighters. This has absolutely SHITTED me for years and I almost cried to see it fixed! /versus/images/graemlins/lol.gif Yes, I can be shallow when I want to be.

    Have you guys noticed how still the stage is? I mean, the stage is totally devoid of any animations whatsover. Maybe that's on purpose--the stage's theme is clearly a somber one, but I hope the other stages would feel a little more alive.

    The animations of the characters themsevles though are gorgeous!

    My guess (and hope) is the background looks flat and unmoving because this is still the test.
