We can rebuild him. We have the technology.
 
Baiken"s stage is stunning. Gorgeous. Iconic. It's not Anji but I think I'm better with Venom now than I ever was with Anji so I can't be too broken hearted.

Both new stages are drop dead gorgeous. Answer's especially. Gives me a studio Ghibli/Spirited Away vibe.
 
I'm still passing on GG but I'm at least glad I'm getting rewarded for waiting longer than usual to get it.
Meanwhile, I bought a PS4 to get it a couple months ago... a month before the PC release on Steam. Thanks for not saying anything at all, ArcSys. I didn't dig through their Twitter, but I still did some research for a PC release and learned zilch.

Well, guess I can get Persona 5 when it releases.
 
PS4 Revelator is 20$ on Amazon, so if there's any good time to hop on this train, it'd be now.

Happy to see Baiken; she's a character I really want to get better with, but I have a hard time "getting" her in practice.
Redesign looks nice, hoping they don't use jiggle physics too much during her cinematic moves. I saw a little jiggle there during her super. Tatami mats looks fun.

Now when can I get my main man Zappa back? I know he's still alive and he has a model in the story mode. He's the only reason I haven't tried the game yet.

Got it yesterday along with a shittonna PS4 games. Glad ArcSys finally decided to put an end to the whole versions shit.

But really now, what about Dr. Paradigm?
 
Haven't played since -Sign- (regret buying Rev on PS4, honestly).

What exactly stops people from just YRCing anything that gets blocked? If the answer is basically nothing, it seems like the game is kind of stacked against Baiken.

She just needs to remember an old quote.

I don't know what are you asking. You CAN'T YRC on block, only RRC which costs twice as much meter. YRC is only on wiff.

Did I miss that changing in Revelator?

That didn't change. I just double-checked to be sure. I suppose they mean YRC-ing right before you send off a projectile, so that if it gets blocked you can block Baiken's counter, but that's kinda true for everyone. Granted, only Baiken has 412 attacks that specifically require being in a block state, but YRC on projectiles to avoid punishes is a thing already.

The GAME stops people from doing that since you cannot YRC if either character is in hit or block stun lol
 
You know, given the polls and all I'm calling Bridget to be revealed, given Baiken too was one of the top voted.

Okay I'll stop. Too excited to finally play this game.
 
Bridget and aba are pretty popular.

And everyone is gay for Bridget

Please be Justice instead of Bridget
Please be Testament instead of Bridget
Please be Order-Sol instead of Bridget
 
So now instead of doing a move on block you do a counter on block and hope enemy will get caught?

Well I guess as someone who only played Baiken offline for fun I don't mind that.
 
Welp, thought I might jump back in for Baiken, this is not helping.
 
Is Xrd's netcode not good?

I only play with other brazilians, so, I get near lagless matches most of time. But if I try to play with people in other countries shit gets laggy.
 
Is Xrd's netcode not good?

From what I experienced from Sign on PC, it's somewhat in the middle. Maybe slighlty better than what SFIV offered.

Good enough for me to have good matches across entire europe.
 
I've found Rev to be a bit smoother than Sign, though I haven't done any major study on it myself. Anecdotally I'd put it at 1-2f less delay for a given network rating (so before 1 bar usually meant ~6f delay, now it seems to mean ~4-5f), so it may just be that they changed the ping->bar conversion function.

Also, Xrd Baiken sounds a bit like Kamui (Arcana Heart).
 
Azami, Baiken's counter: Can be done out of blockstun, during blockstun, and in the air. Requires strict timing. Has diverse followups.

(Side note: Tatami can be done on the ground and in the air.)

Anti Air followup.

Followup for grounded opponents.

Another followup. No idea what it does.
