I already know what these are but it is incredibly dumb that this isn't obvious in-game. I wonder how many people declined me because they thought orange was a bad connection or a ragequitter or something.
Or maybe they knew orange means a really good player and they didnt want to be beaten by one character haha.

Dang it. I checked the "Can I Run It" site to see if my laptop could even run this thing and I can't even do recommended settings. My video card is not strong enough. I have a GeForce GTX 960M. Everything else passes spectacularly though. I have double the required RAM and double the Dedicated Video RAM requirement.

Shoot.

I personally feel it should be good enough. Buy from Steam and check for yourself.

Those minimum requirements are exagerated I think. I tested this game on my old PC (7 years old with a radeon HD6790) and it could still run everything at high at 1080p and 60fps. My new PC isn't even stressed at all while playing this on max at 1440p. You could always buy from steam and do a refund if it doesn't run well.

That site tells me I don't meet the requirements for plenty of games I can run perfectly on max settings.

My friend runs this game pretty well on a toaster, I'd just buy it from Steam and get a refund if it's not great.

The site might be looking at your onboard card instead of the video card.

No wonder people keep saying this arc is torture. It's like my two LEAST favorite fighting game character archetypes stuck together in a party.

You gotta slam and welcome yourself to the jam.

100% best feeling LOL. Nothing beats getting tagged in the air only for them to get hit by the Purple Comet and then you convert back to a knockdown or something. God bless this character. People are sleeping on him.

From what I've played with him so far on ranked, Guldo's projectile and Recoome's beam catches lots of people. :3

Has anyone tried using the Pokken Controller for the PC version? The D-Pad is beyond wonderful, but it is technically missing two shoulder buttons (they are placed next to start and select as smaller, more "optional" buttons). I played the beta quite a bit but used a PS4 controller, and I felt like I was utilizing all the shoulder buttons a decent amount.

Don't know if this was already discussed or not, but Frionel (a KOF player well known in the French community) discovered a pretty interesting option-select. The idea is that normals which are jump-cancellable on hit aren't on guard, so if you input for example 2M 5M jc L+S with Gotenks you will get the L air juggle if 2M hits, or the ground S on guard if it doesn't.
This is pretty useful because it makes it so you can keep pressuring the opponent on guard while more reliably confirming when you open him up.

Sorry if this was already well-known, just starting on the game. ^^

I'd avoid doing any H moves to SD. There's a gap, so you can be deflected or countered.

If you have someone blocking, try mixing things up. For universal tools, you do have the universal overhead (6M) and Dragon Rush (LM) to help open people up. Beyond that, you can make use of good offensive assist (like Vegeta) and air dash normals to keep the pressure on. Also make use of your own character's tools to figure things out, like any command grabs, alternate lows/overheads, or safe on block special moves. It really depends on your team and resources ultimately.
Been trying to use the 6M overhead in those situations in a few matches now and its working very well. Thanks a lot!

I just got a title that said the Return of Cooler... I swear we didn't need to datamine this it was under our noses the whole time (I also got one that says Ultimate Fusion which I think you know who that's referring to).

I think there's a Tournament of Power related title too though, and those characters aren't gonna be dlc.

It's the most unreal thing in the game

but throwing in Trunks/Beerus' command grab super during blockstrings to catch shook people is the most satisfying thing ever

Be careful.
At least with Beerus, it can be jumped post-superflash, so you need to catch your opponent pressing a button or they can get away for free. (I'm not sure about Trunks, I haven't looked into him much yet)

Can you hit father son kamehameha and destructo disc off a mid screen air combo? Like, after the hit and you land. Seems impossible to me unless I'm doing something wrong.

The overall Idea is that you slam them into the ground with a heavy in the air. They will start sliding on the ground. As soon as you land you use the super. Pretty much any ranged super will hit. You just need to make sure they are sliding

You want hard knockdown, where your opponent slides on the ground a bit before they can get up.
There are several ways to get this. If you launch with 2H, then most characters will get hard knockdown with their j.H, and the same can be done if you are able to combo into and from most character's j.2H. There are exceptions, and also some specials might give hard knockdown too. For Krillin and Gohan, the above works.

Yeah that's what I've been doing, and for ginyu's level 1/gotenks level 3/krillins level 3/MB's level 1 I hit with no probelms. It's those 2 specials that If I do midscreen I can't seem to get them to connect.

It's possible, but the timing is tight.
If you're still having trouble, you can shorten the combo so you're closer to the ground, it will give you more time to input the super.

Figured it out. Was doing 2m-5m-jMLL-2h-superdash-jLML-2h-jLL-5h

Removing the light I highlighted in red fixed the problem for some reason.

How do I use vanish wall bounce to extend combos? I'm getting punished a lot using this method but I can't seem to do it. I can't reach the enemy after the wall bounce. Can someone teach me the basics to do it?

After last night's connection problems got into a couple matches this morning before errands, both against super dash spammers. Actually felt a little bad for blowing them up. Can't wait to get back to the lab when I get home.

How the hell do I get out of Cell's 4M pressure? I've fought 2 guys now who do that and I just stay in the corner forever until they eventually hit me because I try to deflect or they hit me with his 236 attack.

Edit: And what's with the game giving me pity wins after a losing streak? Screw you, don't pair me up with a guy three ranks below me what the hell.

The problem is when they super dash to make their 5H or 2H safe. I feel like the safest thing to do is just block or deflect. It's hard to counterattack. I gotta get into the habit of blocking or deflecting so I can stop getting hit trying to punish it.

That aside, what do I do against players who jump a lot? I was fighting a friend and won almost all games save two and I noticed he jumped A LOT. It was hard to catch him with any hits because he'd jump away. He would block when jumping too so super dashes only worked sometimes. I was stumped. I eventually won by finally landing a few bits that led to big combos but the match lasted forever because of all the jumping. I've always had trouble fighting people who jump a lot in fighting games.
If they're jumping at you, just 2H. It beats jump-ins.

If they're jumping away, you can always call an assist and do Vanish in a pinch if they're really far, or try and catch them with a dragon rush if they're just blocking. Super Dash is actually a decent option against people jumping high up since they can't just AA you so easy. But ultimately, you need to also figure out, why are you letting them jump away? Ideally, you want to keep them locked down the best you can with your moves and assists. They have to land eventually, so you can slowly push them to the corner by doing ground and air dashes while blocking moves and work your way from there.

Plus, if they're just jumping away and you have the life-lead, then just let them. Don't go out of your way just to get a kill and take extra damage unnecessarily. Make them come to you.
From what I've played with him so far on ranked, Guldo's projectile and Recoome's beam catches lots of people. :3
Doing Recoome's Beam and then Vanish is fantastic. I get so many combos off that.

Recoomes long ass charge up move does no damage, which is pretty funny considering how long it takes to charge.

Blue bars still never accept on Xbox One. So weird.

Goku SSB autocombo is a joke. High reward for just mashing L. I find it weird in general that H or Dash attacks get so much pushback on block, allowing the attacker to instantly go at you again.

Goku Black laughs his ass off when you try to punish with vegeta.

Guys, the 6 player Party Ring mode is awesome. If you can keep the Delay at 5, it's fun as hell. Party Ring Shuffle is the best.

They also should have done the Capcom thing and allowed for some characters to be set to Japanese voices, and others set to English.

Hope a patch allows this in the future.

Managed ti get the game. Mannn, why is Story mode so damn long. I have to beat all 3 stories just to unlock 21? I was trying to watch all the cutscenes at first, but it just started getting too long with those and all the pointless clone fights.

There werea few laughs in this story though. Didn't expect to see Yamcha shade in this. I don't think they ever did that in the actual anime.

When Sumichu (the associate brand manager for Bamco) tweeted about taking feedback and giving it to the team, I responded to her tweet asking for this. I also saw some others do the same. Cross your fingers.

Great. I think I want Teen Gohan on Japanese instead, maybe Frieza too, not sure. I really liked Genkai Frieza, but that voice isn't in the game. Have to see how the Japanese one sounds first.

No it won't. The second d+H in the air still puts them in enough hitstun for the 236M to hit. I use this in my B&B all the time.

If it whiffs, then you aren't doing it fast enough.

waaaaaaaaaaht, damn k. thanks for the info. I could use this with the chiaotzu super

There's some really great Tien tech coming out lately. Chris G is using him too and saw some new stuff. I think you're gonna see a lot more players use him now.

I kinda hate that my team characters are so popular, Vegb, Tien, and 16. I like underused characters but this team is much fun. Maybe ill learn nappa.







-------------------

Do any tien players find the chiaotzu paralysis useful? has a long easily stopped start up and it doesnt last too long. Its been useful every once in while but not something i rely on
