oh man, playing fighting games for single player content

If a game has online, I put about 0 hours into single player unless I have to in order to unlock something (like new characters in sf4). I still havent' touched my KZ4 single player. That said, I'll probably give BB's single player a whirl once it arrives tomorrow, simply bc I don't know what the F is going on.

Anyone how how high the leaderboard numbers are on 360?

Accumulated wins on ps3 is around 31k. Does that include all territories or just NA? Thought the game would be well above that :(

Guess i'll have to play Ragna's story mode, because his arcade V-13 conversation and ending made no sense.

My general course of the plot has been to go to arcade and then story because alot of the plot makes no sense. I'm close to unlocking the true story and trying to make heads or tails of this if I can.

Yeah, looks like thats the best way to go about it.

Also strange that Jin seems crazy. Judging by the art before knowing about the character, you'd just assume he was some duty bound "justice is the way" kinda guy.

Yeah, I figured he was the 'Ky' of the game. I was glad to see he turned out to be batshit crazy.

I main Litchi right now, who unfortunately has a lot of startup on most of her moves.

I'll try super jumping more, but that doesn't really get me in close. That mash C move jin has pushes back and fills the lower half of the screen so approach is negligible. It seems pretty safe too, since I'm not sure what to counter it with after he performs it.
.

Barrier guard it, it'll push you away enough to stop being hit. Then you can counter with her C, sometimes her B. Then you get a fatty combo on them, and hopefully push them into the corner to start playing her pressure game.

Also for all the crazy ability names that make them sound complicated...the controls and attacks are actually pretty easy. Now to just get abit better with Ragna. Keeping on english voices too.
 
I finished the true story and came away pretty pleased. The only playable character I like got some decent attention. :)

I'm disappointed that there is no "Ky" like character is this game. Jin is too crazy for me. I like his char design, but I don't want to play that wacko. Now the only character I like is Noel.

Tsubaki is almost certain to be a downloadable character/playable in the next BlazBlue though. I like her a lot too. If Aksys or ARC doesn't make her turn into another crazy head AND keeps the fan service crap away from her character, and if she stays the awesome Tsubaki from Noel's and Teach Me Litchi story modes, I'll be maining her. :D

Keep Tsubaki's appearance modest, ARC. Please.

I like Ragna because he's not just one of those "i'm angry and act like a bad ass just because" characters. He's actually got a good reason for it.

Yeah, I liked that about him too. His attitude and language isn't up my alley, but he feels like an authentic good guy still. I enjoy his character interacting with the others. His past is simply tragic.

I thought Hazama would be a pretty cool character to play as, too... When he was in FBI agent mode.

I'm sure he's destined to be playable one way or the other anyway. At the very least, we'll see him in pixel form one day, in one shape or the other (or in all shapes :eek:).

I haven't finished all of story mode so i could be entirely wrong. But for now Hakumen seems to be all about dispensing justice and order with his sword that cuts evil or whatever. Also he might be the future version of Jin or something, with all these random hints in Jin's story.
 
I played some Ranked matches, finally.

I actually won some! In others, the other players were having their way with me...and I did not enjoy it D:

I think my proudest one was facing a level 38 Akune who was just jumping to get away from me, releasing a shit-ton of things in the air, THEN would move in to attack. He managed to beat me the first time but I won the others...and they were all really close ones, too--like, a-sliver-left close.

Screw Jin D: Seriously; I hate playing against him =/ If it's not the blade barrage it's the freezing + running up and grab that annoys me. And the iceboard is too fast! WTF D:

I'm getting a bit better, but I've noticed that I can't pull off some moves because of the d-pad, which is a shame (and I have the "superior" red controller) because it makes me forego them while they can be really useful. Either that or the come out wrong =/ (Though admittedly sometimes I mess up, myself)
 
Your guess is as good as it could get with the details given, I think. The Jin/Hakumen thing confuses me, but if Jin turns himself around I'm willing to give him a chance as long as his turn-around feels convincing.

Alright bros if anyone wants to make a room on XBL shoot me an invite (GT : KafkaRock) and i'll be down to play.

Oh, want to play me? I'm new to Xbox Live. I guess I just type your GT in the Xbox somewhere. I'll find out.

Edit: Oh hi Dragon! I use the analog Stick. :D I don't like the D-pad.

Everyone would pale in comparison to Valkenhayn and his tea of doom.

v in the greek alphabet is pronounced nu
and hay, it's the thirteenth letter too

It's not actually a V. It's the Greek letter, Nu.

Edit: beaten.

Ohh. Thats the third time Arc has fooled me. First it was XX( Zechs?) then Bridget (lol).

Btw Icana, you can add friends via xbox.com as well. Just add their gamertag and the rest is kinda self explanitory.

Okay. I'm online now. Teck, I found out. Just push the X button real quick and it's pretty sassy from there.

EDIT: Oh wow, Rafa is reading this thread.

lol Brawl reunion @ Blazblue.

Also I see the player matches are kinda like "pass the controller" matches in real life. 2 fight while the other 4 watch.

Volcynika let me put it like this, at least one of us is getting that kind of work right now.
Work hours at my place got cut and all I'm doing is studying and playing. I'm a workaholic and I want my dues darn it!!
: (
 
Man, played a few games on-line today and got totally spanked except for the match against the level 1 Arakune, which I'm sure was only because it was lagging.
