Noel players are mad annoying while I'm still totally new to arcsys games.
She is so easy to pull 10hit+ combos with, I love her <3

I tried out the cat girl for a bit, Pretty solid. He pounce is fantastic for dodging, charging, and setting up/continuing combos.

You just gotta be patient and learn how to block her drive attacks... it's not too hard when you get the hang of it. Best thing to do is go into training mode and play as her, then watch her animations to understand how to block it.

BTW, Japanese BlazBlue site updated... more DLC for the game... this time new colors for each character... 4 chars for 160 MS Points (!), or all chars for 400 points. WTF?

I'm against shit like this but some of those new colors look cool. The first row it looks like a Morrigan recolor and a Hatsune Miku recolor. Second row the yellow chick gives me a Seras Victoria vibe and in the third row the second guy definitely looks like Strider.

Strider!!!

and something that looks a little too close to a color Taokaka already has.
 
I suck at this. I only did story and arcade on normal before jumping into online and I just got smashed.

Strider Bang ftw. :lol

Oh, and more DLC? Is there already some, or do you mean the 80 point unlock for the unlimited characters?

GGs to Mr Moody! :lol Damn that v-13! Once I figure her patterns out, it's on!

Overall impressions after the PS3 patch:

Majority of my games were flawless. I kid you not. I may had some there were perhaps 5% slow than norm but it was playable. Hats off to you ArkSys. You did something others could not. Offered a fucking fantastic online service for your game. Takes notes Namco and SNK! I certainly hope you can do this kind of treatment with Tekken 6 and KOF12!

This isn't going to be 360 exclusive, is it?

Awesome to hear it improved so much, since I plan on getting the PS3 version eventually, myself. Can't get enough of it!

That's really great to hear. Even though there was word of a patch, I was getting worried for a bit there. Friday can't come soon enough!

KoF12 has a lot to be worried about...especially with how terrible the netcode is in Garou and 98.

Tried Garou at a friend's; didn't even give 98 a try after the shitty experience we had with Garou's online. With KoF12 being a much higher profile release, hopefully the online will at least be at a tolerable level like SF4's.

Truth be told, though, BB is making me forget KOF12 very quickly.

I should really go into training and see how difficult it is to pull of those wicked sword combos from V-13. If it is indeed difficult I'll have at least some respect for those fellows. Hopefully they rise to the top real quick, and can be annoyed as we all are fighting her. Hah.

I was more excited for KOF12 when they were both announced, Now that I got my hands on BB. KOFXII isn't looking too hot anymore

I still can't play BB for long, Haven't been feeling too well and all the bright flashes are making my head hurt:lol

Hrm. Interesting. I did try Arakune in training, trying to do those bees. Can't pull it off as well as I would like. It's Bang for me all the way though......for right now.

Have you tried other games with your TE?

Yeah, SF4 works fine. =/ I remember someone else mentioning that inputs to skip story lines weren't working for them most of the time either. However, it's go on to gameplay for me. Blah. 360 seems to work fine atm. Not sure what's up.
 
I saw someone at the local arcade playing blazblue. Is it supposed to look like your button mashing even if you know what your doing? :lol

Hrm. Strange. That just happening online or all the time?
 
I got the game this afternoon. Learned the hard way that picking random in online play when you've played a grand total of four arcade matches just doesn't work out. :lol

I'm just pissed because I'll be out of town all weekend and not able to play : (

Wait, DLC colors? Are you kidding me? Colors? I'm loving everything I'm seeing about this game, but this, my friends, is about offensive as DLC gets.

SF4 was kinda/sorta/ish the same way. Alt costumes with all the colors. But from the SF4 perspective, it was legit. I guess the price is gonna make or break it.

Edit: Wait, how much is 400 points?

Kind of..it's not a slow game at all.
 
Kintaro said:
Okay, is anyone else having input problems on the PS3? I'm noticing this on the TE stick. Sometimes buttons just won't register for periods of time. Whether it is in the middle of a fight or just trying to skip conversations. It's not just one button either. It's on all buttons and start. Same thing happens on the DS3 in fast. Stick is connected just fine to the console.

Really weird. =/

I have not had this problem at all.

I did notice the loading got faster after the patch though. Last night was 2-3 flashes of "now loading..." and tonight it was only 1-1.5. Have not tried online yet.

Last night I ran through arcade with bang ba-bang bang bang and tonight I tried Taokaka. Unless I reaaaaaally like someone else I think Tao is gonna be my main.
 
Don't like DLC? Don't purchase it.

That said, if I had the spare cash, I might actually consider purchasing this set. I like these alternate colors, especially Strider Bang.

400 is 5 bucks for all colors. In SF4 all costumes came out to 1000 points or 12.50 bucks. Doesn't seem that bad, plus I don't mind bonus fluff DLC. There's already like 10 colors per character so only reason to buy the extra colors is if you really wanted them.

I haven't tried online because of this. Things start off fine. controls are responsive...then a couple of fights into Arcade, the buttons will just stop working when you want them too. I did not notice this problem before the patch either.

Time to open up this stick...

Lovin the game. I didnt want to try Ragna at first but he's so fuck awesome and im having alot of fun with him.

The patch improved the netcode for ps3 x10. Bravo Aksys!

Three things though...

-are there any character guides available like haunts did for sf4? (or a strat guide?)
-no custom soundtracks?
-is there anyway to get the bonus art off the disk and onto my goddamn computer? Ive always hated how you can earn bonus art in fighters but i cant get them on my pc. It just bothers me alot with BB cause the art is so great.
