Report 5/1 Salty - Taunt Madness, Robo-Fortune Completed

Come on guys, what if Cerebella's taunt made Guenhwyvar appear everytime you did 236P.
It'd be amazing.

I loved all the taunts. But Filia's make me feel as if she's too confident and cocky, doesn't seem like her personality, Samson on the other way though. Other than that, I wish taunts did a tad something, nothing serious, even a small 3S hitbox would do.

I wonder if these taunts can be executed easily or not.

Cause I wanna see that Squigly taunt FOREVER!!
I'm gonna assume they'll like the other 3, they'll be specific inputs with a direction thrown in the middle for some reason. It's odd, I only just now realized my 3 mains were the only taunters in the game... Unless Eliza has one.

Just a little thing that lets her spooky skeleton heal stuff and combo from stabbing into a super, nothing much...
 
That Squigly and Leviathan taunt. Gah! It's too cute!

The be fair, Squigly's taunt is probably one of the easier of them all, it's just a Raging Demon.

Oh yeah, Squigly has a Raging Demon now.

Let's chill for now. We've got the taunts, that's nice, then we'll think about what they'll do if SG2 comes around.
We just need RB release then L0 can get some rest, or go the fuck to sleep if they haven't been sleeping at all during development.

I like how Fukua's taunt looks like she's tearing her skin off... >w>

Fukua's original story was that she and Shamone were jello spit out by Samson.

They're both probably excerpts from her pre-amnesia personality.

I'm totally cool with taunts doing nothing, because they're, y'know, taunts.
I am however totally down with them getting useless non gameplay features, like say Cerebella's guaranteeing that if her next H LnL is not blocked it will generate a doodle cat. Of course to avoid cat spam it would only work once.

I know you're winding down dev, Mike, so don't actually take any random suggestions in here as suggestions. Just take it that we're all idly speculating and not asking for things :)

Also, I'm too lazy to go fishing out quotes, but @Zidiane 's taunt suggestions are fucking bonkers! Turning Parasoul's Sniper Shot into a 3 hit juggle? Making Death Crawl controllable? Bahahahaa

You ninja'd me. That is a nice thought and nice characterization.

Yeah, I love all the new taunts as they are. Adding all kinds of little bonuses would be havoc. Just imagine watching a tournament match where two diabetic Valentines hide in the corners to gnaw on chocolate bars since each nibble grants an extra scalpel to Checkmate Incision.

However, now that the patch has arrived in the Beta, it turns out there are effects! These are the one's I found so far:

Filia: Like Beowulf's Hype mechanic, Filia's Sass meter increases a level with each taunt. Since there are infinite levels, the nuanced changes are impossible to discern in a single match. That's her secret Cap, she's always sassy.
Squigly: Your opponent is guaranteed to lose the will to fight after seeing something so cute.
Fukua: The act of self-annihilation instills ennui for the futility of existence with a reminder of the empty abyss that awaits us all.
Parasoul: Increases the chance for a Black Egret to say "Excuuuuuse me, princess!"​

If you can do the taunt for Beowulf, Big Band or Eliza, you won't have any problems.
Well, thanks, @MikeZ!!

A cute demon, maybe??
 
And I was happy that skullgirls were one of the few games that didn't have a tool designed to piss of your opponent *sigh* Nothing can be perfect, I guess...

Slow down, Sonic the Hedgefox.

We must not ruin the surprise!!
 
If the new taunts are gonna do anything, I kinda wanna see them give the opponent meter, Guilty Gear style ;P

But if that's not possible, I also wouldn't mind something simple like, "if your next attack hits it's a counter hit" or something like that, something that is built into the system already and won't break the game balance.

I'm honestly glad that they aren't going to do anything, especially because the reasoning is totally justified.

Well...would be nice if the taunts for the Vanilla cast + Squiggly build some meter for the oponent like GGs, because....you know, your are tauning the oponent! (and think that doesn´t screw tha current balance & meta game from the game.)
 
Or BlazBlue style and give you a full meter (only vs cpu)

honestly, meh. Don't do anything lol!
 
I'm just glad we have taunts. ._. If I'm losing a match and someone taunts me, props to 'em.

Because I'd do the same fuckin' thing if I were winning. (Smash has made me very mean...)

That Squigly taunt is so cute <3333
 
I love Double's taunt, but I kind of wish she would say something like, "I'll pray for you.. " Not just a clip of her win quote. But either way I'm grateful!

"I pray for your inevitable defeat."

I love all the taunts, even if most dont do anything.

I wonder what cute lines leviathan or Squigly will say in theirs.
 
Parasoul reminds me of 3s Chun when she yawns and cracks her neck

I'd like for taunts to do things too, but more along the lines of what Duck said; something so stupidly minor that it seldom goes used in serious matches, like Dudley's rose. Not necessary though, IMO
The rose is the complete opposite of "useless" though. Maybe in SF4? But hella not in 3s, it's used CONSTANTLY.

But...there were already taunts for everyone after Squigly...?

No new voices, unfortunately. And Double didn't have anything we skipped before.

I do not like the taunts. That's all I'm saying. I do not wish to acknowledge their existence.
Why? Out of curiousity.
