: Melty Blood: Actress Again PS2 version in August Confirmed (now with Ryougi!)
: Dipstick April 11, 2009, 01:14:08 PM
The only reference being made to an official release is this listing on Famitsu (http://www.famitsu.com/review/title/0000/0000/0004/4715/), but let's run with it.

Hopefully this doesn't get fucked up beyond belief like Ecole's port of Arcana Heart 2.  :-[

EDIT: CHECK AGAIN

OHSHI SHIKI RYOUGI AS A NEW CHARACTER IN THE PS2 PORT  :fap: :fap: :fap: :fap: :fap:

Now Ecole really better not fuck this up!

Now they have a website with all sorts of random official information (http://e56.info/mbaaps2/index.html). The first bit of news? An alternate sprite for Ahika where she's in her school uniform. Wat.

Yet again I curse the EU version PS3s lack of backwards compatibility :(

Hope a pc version comes out as well.

I still find it very hard to believe that Ecole ported That Game. iirc, their company logo isn't anywhere to be found on the disc case or when you boot the game up. I'm not sure if they're listed in the credits either since I haven't bothered playing single player mode. Even the official website for That Game is hosted on AQI's server judging by the url. And as I said before, I find it hard to believe that Ecole could produce such a herrendous port when they're responsible for the MBAC PS2 and ver.B PC ports (which are infinitely better by comparison). The links to the MB ports are listed on Ecole's site as well but That Game isn't listed. Strange.

But anyway, news of a MBAA port couldn't have come at a better time. A PC port would be pretty convenient as well but I wouldn't try to get too picky.

PS2 port is better than a PC port.

people will have to start going to venues for tournaments again, and not be stuck at the PC on their precious netplay. it'll be like 2007 all over again.

  Would you mind explaining why a PS2 console release is better?  I think just saying one is better than the other really isn't productive.  Especially when its not.

cuz people will have to go out and mingle with other players, and not be dicks to each other online. And i'm not exactly saying the "PS2 is better than PC", but really "PS2 is better than Netplay" and that having no netplay can be better for the community.

I believe what Scott's saying is that netplay doesn't make a community stronger; it just means that the game can be played by more people.

Fighting game communities are built around friendship, rivalry, and the determination to improve. These things are diluted by the impersonal nature of the Internet. It's hard to befriend someone you netplay because you really know absolutely nothing about them. It's difficult to improve when you have to consider that lag is a constant consideration and that you may be limited by input delay. The drive to improve is muted because netplay is glorified casuals, and you're not in an environment where you have to face the stress of having to win. Without that pressure, most people have no reason to step their game up, so the scene's strength stagnates.

Playing online can also breed an environment where there's a lot of hostility. People talk shit behind their keyboards and don't back it up, citing the lack of funds/time excuse as a reason. People say things online that they wouldn't in person because there's little room for repercussion. People say things without thinking as much online because it doesn't mean the same thing to everyone; some people go out of their way to act retarded online but are otherwise fine in person. It's difficult to judge someone's character online and the impersonal nature of it makes building a community harder.

The strongest communities are formed when friendships result as a side effect of playing the game. Netplay does not cater to this kind of camaraderie, so while you may have more people playing it the overall community will still be weak, as it is now. More people playing does not equate to a stronger community.

If I'm wrong on this please feel free to correct me.

^Well surely the people who actualy in the situation to go to tournaments and stuff and care enough to do so are going to do so whether there is netplay or not so really the only effect should be bringing in more potential tourney goers and even if it doesn't hell more people enjoying the game has to be a good thing anyway and it's not like they would have become tourney goers if it didn't exist.

If you're suggesting that tourney players wouldn't exist without netplay, that is a completely wrong assumption (see: EC and WC PS2 MBAC scenes). Your post was somewhat incomprehensible so I could be talking about something else entirely.

And as far as "the only effect", that's pretty much incorrect. Netplay has many effects on a scene, which I described in my post and you probably glossed over. SF4 would be disastrous as a primarily-netplay game; look at how terrible the online communities (http://thebadloserswallofshame.blogspot.com/) are for that game. It's strong because many people play it offline and form the community as a result. Forming a community from netplay is not only difficult but has to be tightly maintained and continually driven or else it will be weak (see: 4chan and Mizuumi's SWR scene) and/or fail to grow (see: every other doujin game netplay scene that I've hosted besides IaMP and SWR). The main reason the IaMP netplay scene is decent is because I and many others had to help maintain it and keep interest alive while pushing people (including ourselves) to improve, while knowing that ultimately there was little motivation to do so. I know that the game's scene would be a lot stronger if people played it more offline, as online there's no pressure as it's just casuals.

Netplay really isn't the means to building a game's scene. It's good as a tool to help existing scenes get their fix when offline play isn't possible, but as a foundation it lacks strength.

 I would agree but consider this, AA does not have a community to begin with.  There really are not many cabs in the US even.  You cannot befriend the community when there is no community to befriend.  I think netplay would at least give us the option to better connect to those players we otherwise couldn't and would help the community overall in terms of numbers = stronger community.  Im sure casual players can turn into serious players ergo through netplay and we would have more participation in tournaments.  We could still have some AC players make up the majority of the AA community and hold small events or whatever but it would be nice to have a variety of players that I just don't see happening with only a PS2 release.

What you're stating here is that the sequel in a series has a different playerbase than the previous game. This line of thinking is ridiculous and mostly untrue. People who played MBAC are obviously going to look into MBAA because they want the newest thing available, and that is who the MBAA community is comprised of at this point. Lack of availability does not mean the community does not exist; the scene is obviously not as strong, but that's to be expected. Having a situation where the community disavows the newest game is usually reserved for when the game is perceived as inferior to the previous iteration, and in MBAA's case my understanding was that many people, myself included, find it superior to MBAC. In such cases, the community will migrate over and become the default playerbase for the latest version.

I think netplay would at least give us the option to better connect to those players we otherwise couldn't and would help the community overall in terms of numbers = stronger community.  Im sure casual players can turn into serious players ergo through netplay and we would have more participation in tournaments.

As far as netplay goes, the problem is not bringing in new players via netplay (because netplay is good for that). The real issue is what kind of players it brings in. "Why travel when you can netplay? It's almost as good and it takes much less effort, right?" Truth is, people who want to travel to tourneys after starting on netplay are the exception, not the rule. The MBAC scene has many people who have proven this time and time again. Most people netplay because it's easy and effortless compared to traveling for a casual gathering or a tournament. If someone doesn't even have the dedication to find local people to game with, they more than likely do not have the motivation to improve themselves to tourney-level.

(And before you go down the road of "there's people who can't afford to travel/have no time/live too far away from everyone/whatever other reason": yes, netplay can be a useful tool for them, but they are not going to be central figures in the community because nobody's ever seen them. You probably missed when Veteru finally made an appearance for MBAC after years of spinning theoryfighter at anyone and everyone, and how public perception of him changed drastically after that... well, for some people it did anyways.)

We could still have some AC players make up the majority of the AA community and hold small events or whatever but it would be nice to have a variety of players that I just don't see happening with only a PS2 release.

Completely baseless assumption. How would having more netplayers be any better than having more offline players? Are netplayers somehow more interesting than offline players? Does having more scrubs make a scene more "varied" and "diverse"? Would a PS2/offline only release not be able to develop a variety of playstyles? This statement doesn't even make any sense. If anything, it sounds like you simply want it to be easy to play for everyone, which is a fine goal in and of itself, but not the way to developing a strong community.

And on that note, let's look at one of your earlier statements:

...and would help the community overall in terms of numbers = stronger community.

A community with more players is not always strong. Things are not that simple. For any given community to survive you need two populaces within it: the hardcores and the casuals. The hardcores are the ones who define the top level of play and give the lower players something to strive towards. At the same time, there needs to be at least a semi-regular flow of new players so the community does not become stale. There must be a balance between these two populaces. When you have too many hardcores, the newer players are turned off by the learning curve and lose interest in learning most of the time because they realize they're up against too much experience and knowledge (see: IaMP, MvC2). When you have too many casual players, there is never any drive to improve and, for many players, no visible path towards improvement because they do not understand what higher-level play is made of (see: US SWR). In both situations, the community stagnates; one from lack of growth, the other from lack of upward movement.

Netplay is a fine tool for communities but it should not be the basis by which they are made. Not to mention, even if there was a PC port for whatever reason there's still no guarantee of netplay, so until a tool was made it would only make things more difficult for the serious players who would be forced to use PC version as default instead of PS2 (see: the hassle at running MBAC at any event due to having to fuck around with USB polling rates, installing drivers for converters, getting a setup that doesn't lag, looking amazingly ghetto having to play your game on someone's laptop...)

  Excuse me but the playerbase HAS changed.  You think the player base will be intact when it "migrates" to AA? The truth of the matter is most of them moved on to other games or like you said the newest thing available (SF4, BB, etc.).  So this community migration you speak of will probably not be larger than what MBAC was, not that it would be a smooth transition because its hard to tell exactly how many people will drop MB in general for something like BB (Which is going to be released way earlier/has a better scene/some people consider better.).  I think your under the delusion that there are a lot of veteran MBAC players behind AA when they are out playing BB or otherwise just not interested.

As far as netplay goes, the problem is not bringing in new players via netplay (because netplay is good for that). The real issue is what kind of players it brings in.

  Its not that netplay brings in a different kind of playerbase, its that it brings it in LARGER amounts (And lets face it, most of the netplay community consists of assholes or immature people, look into the channel right now and I willing to bet someone is trolling or raging etc.).  The difference is without netplay you have only a fraction participating seriously who come to tournaments or gatherings.  Netplayers as a whole do seem like it is mainly made up of these type of people but they are probably just like you and me in real life (Like you said in one of your earlier posts shit goes down on the internet differently, people don't give no fuck on the net.) So you cannot say that people who only netplay are annoying or unmotivated because you would have never met them  :psyduck:.  Whats wrong with having something easy and effortless to play a game you enjoy playing with other people?  If they don't want to come to tournaments it means they are just casuals and should be ignored other than when you netplay against them (Hey, they can't really hurt the community since they don't play live at gatherings right?).  So, the netplay community consists of people who do or do not take this game seriously enough to travel, but as a whole I am sure they are not these immature kiddies you see in the channel everyday.

And on that note, let's look at one of your earlier statements:
  Yes, having more new players usually means a community has more of a diverse scene since there is a scrub to pro ratio.   More playing in general usually means more diverse or solid strategies, so I don't know what you were trying to say (Maybe that it doesn't matter if its online or offline since it will get the same amount of play? Either way thats incorrect, good strategies and styles/gimicks are accelerated in proportion to how many people play the game.).

One error you are making is that you assume that someone will not mbaa in addition to sf4, bb etc. Also crt tvs and ps2s are more in abundance than good laptops. Most tournaments usually only have 2 or 3 laptops worth playing on for mb.

Of course the playerbase isn't going to be intact, but to assume that MBAA has no community at all is preposterous. People who dropped MBAC may pick up MBAA (I know if I had a PS2 version I would, and we all know how I feel about MBAC). People who main other games can play MBAA; there's no reason someone can't play multiple games and be competitive in them. There's plenty of people who got into MB late and are looking forward to MBAA since MBAC is deprecated. These people are all a part of the community as much as anyone else, and I think you're under the delusion that there's nobody interested in MBAA when everyone's just waiting for it to drop.

Its not that netplay brings in a different kind of playerbase, its that it brings it in LARGER amounts (And lets face it, most of the netplay community consists of assholes or immature people, look into the channel right now and I willing to bet someone is trolling or raging etc.).  The difference is without netplay you have only a fraction participating seriously who come to tournaments or gatherings.  Netplayers as a whole do seem like it is mainly made up of these type of people but they are probably just like you and me in real life (Like you said in one of your earlier posts shit goes down on the internet differently, people don't give no fuck on the net.)

See, this is the meat of the disagreement here. You have the mentality of "bring more players in, there will be some good stuff in all the chaff", while Scott has the mindset of "keep the netplayers out, they're too negative to make the meager numbers they bring in worthwhile". This is a problem with MBAC where lots of players turned on the game, and there's really no way for us to tell right now if it would happen again for MBAA. With the way MBAA has progressed it seems less likely, but we won't know until years later.

Yes, having more new players usually means a community has more of a diverse scene since there is a scrub to pro ratio.   More playing in general usually means more diverse or solid strategies, so I don't know what you were trying to say (Maybe that it doesn't matter if its online or offline since it will get the same amount of play? Either way thats incorrect, good strategies and styles/gimicks are accelerated in proportion to how many people play the game.).

I'm going to be blunt here and say that this doesn't matter because we're all going to copy Japan anyways. The good players are going to come up with their own shit on top of that and bring the diversity you're talking about. Having more lower-level players will not accomplish anything but slow the growth of the scene. More playing does not translate into more knowledge, as not everyone plays to learn (excuse me, Plays to Win).

Can't argue with this, the balance you speak of is usually very important.  And I never said or even suggested that netplay should be a basis, I just said its a good supplement to a community.  It is not hard to make a netplay tool.  (I know, I've made a few back in my day.) Setting up setups is hardly worth discussion, quit being lazy.

We agree there, netplay is a good supplement. However, in the case of MBAC, it eventually became the basis of the community since the offline meets stopped, and that's when the community degraded. At this point in time there needs to be any kind of release to jumpstart the scene, and I feel (along with Scott) that a PS2 release would be the more solid way to do it because it would bring in the serious players first and foremost and give credibility to the game instead of having to deal with netplayers who don't even know what a BnB is. You probably also missed the years when MBAC was ridiculed for being a loli fighter (even though it has what, 3 lolis in it out of 20-some characters?), a MUGEN fighter, an anime fighter (another nonsensical term from SRK elitists), and other names I forgot. The last thing you need when trying to establish a game is for it to have a reputation as a netplay fighter, and for the game to be taken seriously by more people, it will need a reputation past what it has at the moment.

And as far as setups go, it's a valid issue, albeit a small one. Try organizing a tourney where you have to run brackets on the same setup you're playing on. Try making a joint effort to release match videos when you have replays scattered across four laptops instead of on a single tape or hard drive. People notice these things in tournaments. When you have a smooth operation running, it makes the scene look better. When you're fumbling for USB adapters and screaming at people to save replays instead of raging for a runback, people will notice that too.

  Lets just assume a community is compromised of at least 30 people who play the game often in arcades, if this was the case, AA would not have a community. (Unless theres another channel where all these AA players meet up or I'm missing something).  We don't have a community, yet, we just have a handful of people who play the game and noone who has any REAL experience with it.  Except there ARE reasons people don't play seriously on multiple games (They don't have enough time to seriously grind two games, They want to focus on one game, or they just prefer to take one of them more serious because its funner or better or whatever.) so there ARE reasons.  I KNOW there isn't nearly as many people in the MBAC channel waiting for AA to drop than people waiting for BB to drop (Sad even though its MBAC.) but it proves my point.
I'm going to be blunt here and say that this doesn't matter because we're all going to copy Japan anyways.

  Im going to be blunt and say that it matters EVEN if we copy Japan anyways.  Having more lower-level players means some of those will go pro and take the game serious, which means more knowledge, which means you have more people P2W.  Simple as that.

EDIT: beaten by voomer on the multiple games point
  Well we agree on this so no point in arguing, but since whenever theres a MB tournament its usually accompanied by tournaments from other games, which of course is going to be harder to organize because its multiple games.  If theres replays scattered across multiple laptops, the obvious thing to do is either upload them or put them on portable storage.  A highly organized tournament would do these things efficiently but most of the time MB is just a small side tournament in the shadow of other tournaments.

As long as you have people with a common interest (playing mbaa/wanting to play it when its released) you have a community. Almost no top player plays one game exclusively with the exception of marvel.

Lets just assume a community is compromised of at least 30 people who play the game often in arcades, if this was the case, AA would not have a community. (Unless theres another channel where all these AA players meet up or I'm missing something).  We don't have a community, yet, we just have a handful of people who play the game and noone who has any REAL experience with it.  Except there ARE reasons people don't play seriously on multiple games (They don't have enough time to seriously grind two games, They want to focus on one game, or they just prefer to take one of them more serious because its funner or better or whatever.) so there ARE reasons.  I KNOW there isn't nearly as many people in the MBAC channel waiting for AA to drop than people waiting for BB to drop (Sad even though its MBAC.) but it proves my point.

You're trying way too hard if you have to quantify fighting game communities with hard numbers and IRC channels. These things are afterthoughts for most other communities.

Im going to be blunt and say that it matters EVEN if we copy Japan anyways.  Having more lower-level players means some of those will go pro and take the game serious, which means more knowledge, which means you have more people P2W.  Simple as that.

Are you seriously suggesting that having more knowledge comes from lesser skilled players who decide to get serious, instead of good players who want to get better? This is so completely backwards that I can't believe it isn't a troll. Leave that shit on IRC.

Also, there is no way you can expect people to listen to what you say when you throw around Sirlin lingo with no sense of irony, but we've been over this before.

Well we agree on this so no point in arguing, but since whenever theres a MB tournament its usually accompanied by tournaments from other games, which of course is going to be harder to organize because its multiple games.  If theres replays scattered across multiple laptops, the obvious thing to do is either upload them or put them on portable storage.  A highly organized tournament would do these things efficiently but most of the time MB is just a small side tournament in the shadow of other tournaments.

MB has always been played as a side tournament at bigger events. The game will never become the headliner at Evo because of politics, but the first step to getting it recognized as a contender at other events is to get your shit together. PC does not accomplish this goal because it is more complex than a PS2 setup. You probably weren't around when older WTs were run on PS2 and everything ran smooth as silk. At Evo, it took 2 days to finish one tournament and it had to be done in a fucking hallway (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4QQgi4D6f0). This is no way for a game to thrive, and sure enough, after Evo the hype pretty much died.

Anyways, that's my last post on the topic. I'd like to see a PS2 release -- even if it's somewhat imperfect -- as long as it's not as bad as That Game. Netplay would be nice but I think you're overestimating its necessity and impact on the scene. Look at GGAC, which has no netplay (aside from #r) and is hugely popular. Wonder why that is.

Having more scrubs means eventually more good players will arise. (We all begin as scrubs when we first play a game we don't know, it doesn't mean just because your a scrub you doomed to be a scrub forever.
Having more good players means more people taking the game seriously and finding their own styles/strategies.

If you're solely talking about MBAC then I agree.

Outside of that, not really sure how to take news of a PS2 port of MBAA especially considering how bonklers the MBAC port was (and how we literally didn't know any better at the time).

I'll take it as is right now.

Obviously not, but it's pretty embarrassing when you need to fish numbers out from thin air and say "IS THIS WHAT WE NEED TO BE COUNTED AS A LEGIT COMMUNITY GUYS???" There's no need to quantify it, it just smacks of desperation. If you want the game to be taken seriously, you have to be confident, and asking for numerical validation is not the way to do that.

Right, because we all begin good and not at lesser skill levels.  :psyduck:  Let me dumb it down so you don't misunderstand again.

First off, this is another bad assumption. There are going to be people who are more skilled than others even having not played the game. Why? Because they play fighters proficiently and have fundamentals and experience from other games. Hellmonkey was no scrub when he started playing MBAC because he played GG and as such understood the concepts very quickly. While he wasn't "good" by MB standards at his first West Toast, he already had a large headstart because execution in MBAC was easy compared to GG and there were many similar things you could do between the two games. As a result, he placed high in the brackets even though it was a new game to him, beating out people who had been playing for a far longer time. (You probably missed that.)

Also: "Having more scrubs means eventually more good players will arise." You're basically saying "throw more people into the pool, and eventually something good will come up!" Good players arise because they want to get better, regardless of how big their playerbase is. The SWR scene is full of scrubs. Do any of them get better? Yes. Would they have gotten better if there were fewer random scrubs on 4chan? More than likely (see: asdf and alpha10th, who developed their game extremely well even when the playerbase was mostly comprised of Touhoufags who had never played a fighter seriously in their lives). Introducing more scrubs isn't a guarantee that you're going to get more high-level players. It means you have a chance of having more high-level players simply because you have more numbers.

We are really talking about two different things here; you are referring to expanding the population with the net effect being that good players will come from it. What I'm saying is that there are going to be people who are naturally better than others or have enough experience to be ahead in the game, and that the path to improvement is to learn from those players. You're not going to accomplish anything having a huge MBAA community where nobody knows anything beyond a basic BnB. Somebody has to step up, and that person is going to do it regardless of if it's 50 people or 500.

Nothing to say here except theres a reason why GGAC is more popular, its a better game than MBAC.  If you take my P2W lingo seriously you deserve to be trolled, spoilers, I'm not serious.

And herein lies the problem: if GGAC is better than MBAC (which it is), why should people play MBAC? (This is the question XAQ asked himself, and why he's no longer in the MBAC scene). For MBAA to succeed, it cannot be "that game GG players go to when they're bored" or "the game people play if they suck at GG". There has to be proof that MBAA is a superior game in some aspects apart from other games out there. The best way to demonstrate this is to show the game at tournaments with an organized presence, to upload quality match videos, and to hype the tournaments up. Netplay is barely a blip in the radar for what the game needs because the considerations of people who aren't going to travel don't matter to the serious portion of the community.

I still think net-play is a good thing, and I love it to pieces. Why? Because otherwise I probably would never be able to play against anyone. Ever. I live in a decently size town (though it is considered a city), and I've yet to find a single person who even knows what Melty Blood is, let alone anything Type-moon. Not only that, I don't even believe their is a single arcade cabinet of MB:AA in all of Alberta.

Hell, without net-play I probably wouldn't have even gotten into MB:AC, because really, after getting a hang of the game, how much fun is playing the AI? Not much eh? I think I know a single person in this town I might be able to con into playing the game a single time, then he would probably give up, so really I have no one to play against in person. Even when it comes down to going to a larger city, Edmonton, even Calgary, I only know a couple people who would be interested, so once again, I would let the game hang around collecting dust.

All in all, I think net-play adds to the community, not take away. I mean, all the players who want to take it up a notch will still head to tourneys, play with friends, etc.  while people who are more casual or just don't have the opportunity to head halfway across the country to join in are still able to play with others.

Dunno, just my two cents.

On a different note, I'll believe the release date once it gets confirmed.

 I was just trying to use numbers to better explain how many people should be playing a game for a community to be established. (Obviously a handful of people playing AA cabs do not coun't as a scene.).  Whats so embarrassing about trying to find some common ground to discuss what a community really is, because it certainly isnt what AA has atm.

 OFC there are going to be more skilled players who are used to this type of game, but no matter how much exp they have they WILL start as a scrub initially (even if it takes them 10 minutes to become a "Good" player the point here is a group of scrubs have a better chance of producing good players as opposed to only 2-3 scrubs.) Okay so lets apply your logic, good players arise because they want to get better right?  Well you have a better chance of finding those people in a group of 25 scrubs who netplay as opposed to 5 scrubs who have to play the game on PS2 without much experience playing with other people.  EVERYONE, and I mean EVERYONE started as a scrub somewhere, it doesn't matter if it was MBAC or GG or SWR the point is they wanted to become better so they took the game serious and theres a greater chance to find people like this in higher numbers as opposed to just assuming experienced players are just going to migrate to a certain game.

Of course you have a better chance with more people, but you are overlooking something.

You have a better chance of finding good people in a group of 25 netplay scrubs as opposed to 5 PS2 scrubs. However, you have a better chance of having stronger players in a local community of a few mid to mid-high level players as opposed to a bunch of netplayers who don't have any understanding of fundamentals or gameflow. Sure, you can fish out the 1-2 good players out from the 25 netplay scrubs, but your scene would be stronger if you had a few good players all sessioning each other. You don't need quantity to have strong players. Ask anyone with a local scene whether they think netplaying a bunch of random people is better for learning and building strong players than sessioning with their group.

EVERYONE, and I mean EVERYONE started as a scrub somewhere, it doesn't matter if it was MBAC or GG or SWR the point is they wanted to become better so they took the game serious and theres a greater chance to find people like this in higher numbers as opposed to just assuming experienced players are just going to migrate to a certain game.

You are completely hung up on quantity. Quantity is not the only way to build a strong scene, and is in fact not the right way at all. Quantity is a side effect of a strong scene, not the beginning of one.

I understand what you're saying. You are saying "I think many people should play MBAA so eventually we get a bunch of top players while there's still a lot of skill levels in the scene". That is not going to happen with MBAA. The game does not have mass appeal. You are not going to succeed in making the community strong that way. For this game to succeed it will need to have a base of talented players who are charismatic enough to entice other players to give it a shot, not a bunch of random scrubs who can't show them how the game works at higher levels. Who remembers NEC hype and how the game skyrocketed in popularity as a result? Netplay isn't going to accomplish anything like that, nor will a bunch of scrubs.

In my opinoin AA is better than BB, I enjoy the pacing of AA as opposed to the floaty feel of BB, but everyone has thier tastes.  Sometimes whether a game is good or not doesn't determine whether someone will play it because of the specific taste of that person.  Netplay would help bring in more players (There might even be a few experienced players out there who just decide to try AA on a whim because it has netplay and if they happen to like the game well, we just have another experienced player in the scene.) I agree it isnt necessary but it would sure help.

Yes, it would help, I agreed with you on this already. But from how things are looking, it isn't going to happen, so if you want the game to take off, you'll just have to deal with that fact. If MBAA PC comes out, great! You can look into making netplay happen. But complaining this much over a port without netplay is pointless. Work with what you've been given, which at this point is looking to be much more than what the unfortunate Arcana community was handed.

^Well surely the people who actualy in the situation to go to tournaments and stuff and care enough to do so are going to do so whether there is netplay or not so really the only effect should be bringing in more potential tourney goers and even if it doesn't hell more people enjoying the game has to be a good thing anyway and it's not like they would have become tourney goers if it didn't exist.

If you're suggesting that tourney players wouldn't exist without netplay, that is a completely wrong assumption (see: EC and WC PS2 MBAC scenes). Your post was somewhat incomprehensible so I could be talking about something else entirely.

And as far as "the only effect", that's pretty much incorrect. Netplay has many effects on a scene, which I described in my post and you probably glossed over. SF4 would be disastrous as a primarily-netplay game; look at how terrible the online communities (http://thebadloserswallofshame.blogspot.com/) are for that game. It's strong because many people play it offline and form the community as a result. Forming a community from netplay is not only difficult but has to be tightly maintained and continually driven or else it will be weak (see: 4chan and Mizuumi's SWR scene) and/or fail to grow (see: every other doujin game netplay scene that I've hosted besides IaMP and SWR). The main reason the IaMP netplay scene is decent is because I and many others had to help maintain it and keep interest alive while pushing people (including ourselves) to improve, while knowing that ultimately there was little motivation to do so. I know that the game's scene would be a lot stronger if people played it more offline, as online there's no pressure as it's just casuals.

Netplay really isn't the means to building a game's scene. It's good as a tool to help existing scenes get their fix when offline play isn't possible, but as a foundation it lacks strength.

Please try not to misunderstand my post

I am saying that netplay probably wouldn't negatively effect the amount of tourney players because any players playing in by netplay alone would probably not go to tourneys anyway or have even picked up the game without it.

So basically tourney players stay the same and it opens the game up to people who don't have a local scene or just want to play without bothering a bout tourneys and stuff like that.

Simple enough?
You know, a certain level of skill transfers between fighting games. Like, basic fundamentals and adaptability. I'm not sure how many particularly good players you know personally, but the ones that I know are able to pick up a new game very quickly. They are generally pretty strong in a new game right from the start because their basics are strong and they learn fast. Likewise, there are players that don't get much better over time, and suck at all the fighting games they play. I know plenty of those types too, we call them scrubs.

It's true that not everyone is awesome on day one, and we learn over time.. but no you don't want "more scrubs" because by definition a scrub isn't likely to improve. However, you do want "more players and hopefully some of them are good". But more than that, you want people to actually like the game and want to get better at it.

Just getting a bunch of people together doesn't necessarily mean people will keep playing either, look how many games use to be at Evo and SBO and are now dead and gone. They had a community and they failed to keep it. And if all these players being brought in by netplay are actually scrubs then a lot of them will probably drop off pretty quickly in favor of another game.

Anyway, it's incorrect to think that netplay will automatically bring in an influx of people. There's actually several PC fighting games with netplay that have zero community. There's also a ton of old games that have netplay support through emulators and have zero community either. Netplay doesn't automatically make people want to play a game.

With a PS2 release there's at least a small chance at a tournament scene. With a PC release all you'll ever get out of it is online casuals and the occasional side event. The latter would only be technically a good thing if the game was going to die anyway, because then at least some scattered fans can have fun flogging a dead horse. But without a console port it isn't likely to be taken seriously on a large scale because the majority of gamers have equipment for and play on console, not PC.

This is a very good question.  I would like to know as well.

And as far as all this netplay argument is going, I can't help but side completely with Bell.  He has assloads more experience with starting and maintaining a scene than most anyone here (with a few exceptions such as Spooky and Arly), and is pretty worldly with fighters in general.  The fact is that MBAC only recently had a strong netplay, and it was doing just fine before that.  The addition of netplay may have added accessibility to more people, but it hasn't necessarily made the community stronger.  The community still feels the same as it did when this site was first started.

Bottom line is that any port is better than no port.  Be happy you fucks.

If ECOLE doesn't do what EXAMU did to That Game and make it 2.5 and a 1/2 lag edition then yes it will be Ver.A. Also I agree with the last sentence. Just be fucking happy we got a port. Who cares if it's PS2 or PC? You'd still play it regardless because you like MB that much. As long as they don't pull an EXAMU (Which I highly doubt they will) it shouldn't be a problem. Netplay is fine and all, hell I used to be a online warrior, but when it's gotten to the point where netplay is the LIFE of a community (See: DOA4) then you know your community has gone downhill. At least with it being on the PS2 it will force people to travel that tournament (If they claim to to be part of this community) and contribute something.

The only downfall with it being on PS2 is that we can't witness Harman Smith's awesome mixup: 2A>2B>2C>5A.

  Im not complaining about the actual port to PS2 but I don't see why they wouldn't release it for PC since the PC release helped make that game successful.

If we're talking about the US scene in particular the inclusion of the PS2 port of MBAC did alot more then the PC version did. Much, much more.

I was trying to promote Melty Blood back when it was just RE-Act a good five years ago. Zaelar and myself would bring a laptop to the local bi-monthly GGXX / #R tournaments that were being held. I was handing out burnt copies of the game to every major / tournament I could get to. That lasted for a year before I met Sp00ky. Then Sp00ky met Zarticus, and word spread just a bit in NYC. Even then, we were limited to barely having eight man tournaments that required us to lug around Sp00ky's entire tower to and from the venue. Hell, the tournaments would usually end up being run AT Sp00ky's apartment because we couldn't get space / accommodation at other tournaments. Matters were like this until word of a PS2 port was announced (the game was in Japanese arcades at this point).

When that port dropped all that shit changed. Sp00ky's gatherings doubled somehow, and the first major to hold the game (NEC 7) had 17 entrants. That doesn't seem like much now, but at the time for NEC it had more entrants then any of the 'side tournaments' being run. That set of grand finals was so absurdly hype most of the ballroom was wondering what the fuck was going on.

Things kept going on this way. Tournaments being held on a somewhat monthly basis also let us run MB, and we'd consistently get 18-25 people to enter, many who had not gone anywhere near the PC version. Things were going great until they announced they'd port the game again, this time on the PC.

Bam, everyone that was playing the game up to that point just fucking vanished.

You know what?

I think Final Round last year was run by me and Choco and we had about 30-35 people on MB tournament. I honestly hope this number can double sometime in the near future after AA port is out.

  Im not complaining about the actual port to PS2 but I don't see why they wouldn't release it for PC since the PC release helped make that game successful.
Successful? Did the PC port make more money? I doubt it. A PC port probably wasn't anymore successful than a PS2 port to ECOLE. What does it matter to them, their audience is the Japanese and they mostly play on the arcade anyways. Most people pirated MBAC anyways and most who did own a legit copy were very likely to own a copy of the PS2 game too.

I don't care that much about netplay, but I would much prefer a PC or PS3/360 pot because they can be updated. This port is going to be outdated faster than you can say "Dance Romanesque and unfinished Romancia" It's still a hell of a lot better than nothing and I will take what I can get. Good news.

Yeah thats a good point, and the lack of region locking on the PS3 would be pretty handy as well.

I'm wondering if they could get it up and running on a psp though, since it can handle other 2D fighters like guilty gear and darkstalkers... (portable Melty Blood would kick so much ass)

I don't plan on buying a ps3, and the chances of me getting one ever are slim.  Getting an NTSC-J XBOX360 is even more minute of a chance.  I've actually imported both the ps2 and pc MBAC, and I definitely wouldn't mind shelling out the cash to do so again for MBAA, but buying a 300-400 dollar system on top of the importing costs is just not happening.  Current gen isn't as easily accessible as ps2.  I live nowhere near any MBAA cabs and there's prolly only one local beside myself who's serious enough about the game to import it, so accessibility is very important to me.

And lol, fighters on handhelds just don't appeal to me at all.  I already get hand cramps just holding one for an extended period of time.  My hands are too big for that shit.

It's ture that even I, also known as keyboard spammer, enjoy being on tourneys because of the people and the relaxed atmosphere. But for me the reason is that most scene is in US, which is just too far away to pass in for 2 days or so. On top of that, how many people do you know that play Melty personally, not including ones you met at forums etc. And how many do you know FROM forums & internets. Often there's no other choice than playing via netplay.

Still, waiting for AA. Held back some money and ordered a used PS2 only for this game. Can't wait.

Not going to delete it, but further discussion isn't going to accomplish anything. You have one view, I have another. Many people disagree with you, a few disagree with me. If a PC port is confirmed then the discussion about netplay would actually be warranted but it's nothing but unproductive bitching with a PS2 port. Let's just move on.

If I remember they only removed the Blood because the PC port of MBAC didnt get an actual CERO rating where the PS2 version was rated B (teen) and thus had the blood. But I dont think its that important since it was only for Satsuki's AD and Nanaya's LA right? Or am I missing some?

You know, besides not having access to updates, I don't mind the PS2 release. It makes more sense than a PS3/360 release when it's only for JP. If it were being released in the US like SF4 and BB, then PS3/360 makes more sense, but as it is, there's not much reason to make it not PS2 when more people have PS2s.

Also, if you really care about playing it on a PC, PS2 emulation actually works, as opposed to Naomi still not being fully emulated? A lot of people who play MBAC I can tell don't have PS3s or 360s, and unlike with BB or SF4, it's almost definitely not going to be a commonly played game regardless, so you can't just go to your friend's place and expect them to have it like you can with SF4.

That said, while I don't oppose a PS2 release, I know for a fact there will be people who are going to be out of it without a real choice (although this is very likely with PS3/360 too because of imports regardless). I don't have a PS2, PS3, or 360, and there is 0 chance I will ever get one. Hell, if I won one from some contest, I would have to give it away to someone. That's just how it's been with me as far as real gaming goes since I was in elementary school, and it's going to be that way until I'm completely unreliant on my parent's money or a place to live (which means I have to pay off all the money they borrowed to pay for my college back to them as well). If I even thought of traveling for any sort of gaming event, I'd probably be disowned. It's the reason I've lived in Houston my whole life and never been to P-Z, but I go to UFO since I'm living in a dorm in Austin.

Masu is a new player who will travel for the game. That's a blessing. I don't think a lot of people can say that, and not just because of laziness, though definitely there are people too lazy to travel and don't want to save up the money. I speak for only myself, but I have a feeling there are other people in the same boat as me. I simply am unable to travel for Melty, and no matter how much I'd like to, I don't have a choice. Whether or not people like me matter at all for the community is debatable, but there are definitely a number of people who, regardless of liking the game enough to be willing to travel, won't ever really play the game outside of netplay because they can't travel.

Tsukihime and KnK are already very closely related.  They have a lot of links as it is, so having crossover between them just makes sense.  It'd be weird if they put someone from F/SN in it, since that's the least related to the other TypeMoon titles.

Does the magazine page say that Ryougi's only appearing in the PS2 version or will there be a chance that she will eventually appear in arcade machines earlier than the PS2 release and thus give us some videos to see how she is?

Arihiko should really be put in, even if he is just the Dan of the game.

They could use the same BS reason that Miyako can fight with everyone. I always thought it was weird how she got in but not Arihiko since originally her existence was nothing more than a few lines from Tsukihime.

Then I remembered that Arihiko is not a prepubescent girl so Japan doesn't give a shit about him.

She better have at least an ex where she uses her katana.  That shit increases her power by a shitload.

Seems more like Arc Drive/Last Arc material.

 more likely the moves are different, just named same, or rather, similar but different properties.

a'la vakiha/akiha specials, wara/vsion claws etc.


this makes me sad because I don't have Ryougi MBAA art. Oh well, I'm willing to buy any new artbooks and scan them when the time comes.

Man, honestly, this is such great news overall. I'm going to take this over with some friends of mine/maybe Sabator to the local gaming center every week on fight night once MBAA comes out and try to hype it. I joined the MBAC ship too late to really do anything but I really want to make a difference with it's status here in the EU.

I'll do some more after work.

Roa
The vampire known as the 'Infinite Reincarnation'. An extra to the original 27.
He was originally a high priest in the Catholic Church, made who who is by the True Ancestor, Arcuied.
He was the cause of the incident two years ago. Satsuki is a victim of his.

Ryougi
A girl with the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception. The container of the Origin of the universe.
A person without any relation to Misaki Town.
She is not sure if she is watching a dream or if she was summoned to another.

Neco-Arc
A mysterious creature.
With no purpose to the world, it exists just killing time.
Nobody knows its relation to Arcuied.
It does what it wants to do, enjoying its freedom. (フリーダムすぎるので、そろそろなんとかしたい. can't think of a better way to word this)

The leading actress of Nasu's original work "Kara no Kyoukai", Ryougi Shiki, crosses over to join the fight.
Her battle with Tohno Shiki, possessing the same Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, is a must-see.
Other mysterious character(s) will also be added.

I don't think it's much of an issue either. The game is simply called "Melty Blood" and not "Tsukihime: Melty Blood" or something, so they're most likely free to add in anyone they'd like, if it's up to them. With Ryougi now added in the PS2 port, we're probably likely to see another KnK representation (Touko or Araya) and maybe even someone from Fate/Stay Night (Saber or Archer).

I'm personally expecting to see Touko as the next revealed character. Or maybe for comedy purposes, we'd get Dust of Osiris or even NEKO CHAOS BLACK 666 as a playable character.  :V

I'm sort of surprised that they went with the alternate outfit for Akiha. I could say "maybe we'll see more alts" like this for Arc (http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/anime/essentials/tsukihime/img/main.jpg) but it might not be so easy to implement unlike in a 3D game. Might be wrong, though.

And I suppose that ps2 does come with an advantage, we'll definately be getting the alt included in the price of the disk since there is no DLC system to abuse (unlike a certain other fighting game that's been recently popular)

Hope they come out with a PC port fairly soonish after release.

Don't really see a down side to it.

If it was a change they wanted to make they should have done it before MBAA, or maybe have done it for MBAC. Melty just feels like it's finally moving away from its doujin fighter roots (even though AC wasn't a doujin fighter it still pretty much felt like it), and a big KoF size mashup would probably be counterproductive if they want to develop gameplay any further.

Would it be fun? Probably. But on any sort of competitive level it would probably turn into a shitfest like KoF or MvC2.

I just like the direction Melty is going and think doubling the cast by adding an entire series would take it in a very different direction, one that I wouldn't really be looking forward to.

Wow take the storyline more seriously why don't you~

If the inclusion of characters from other games brings in more varied playstyles then I'm all for it, regardless of whatever happens to the story I never gave a shit about in the first place.

Melty moved away from its doujin fighter roots the day it set a precedent by becoming an arcade game. Other games have attempted the same and still more follow suit in hopes of attaining the same success.

Would it be fun? Probably. But on any sort of competitive level it would probably turn into a shitfest like KoF or MvC2.

KoF's dream match scenario titles (98 and 2k2, possibly XI even) are its most successful titles to date, 98 itself continues to be played 10 years after its release. y.

MvC2 might be horribly imbalanced but that doesn't keep it from being fun, or generally one of the most exciting games to watch each year at Evolution. It'd would have likely been popular in Japan too had it been handled properl

Clearly, Akiha schoolgirl means alternate costumes are coming.  Clearly, V.Sion will have one.  Wait a second, she has no alternate outfits... except for her ending.
 :fap:

Seriously though, Ryougi could arguably fit into the plot.  MBAA sounds like it involves a fairly serious incident, and certainly, Touko would know about it.  Why not send Ryougi in?

Okay, I'm stretching it.

It's not like MB is canon anyways.

While I don't really have anything against KoF98 and 2k2 in particular, KoF as a series is one of the laziest out there and its yearly changes generally amount to swapping which characters have the 70%+ damage combos or breaking a game mechanic (looking at you 2000).

MvC2 can be pretty fun and is usually pretty enjoyable to watch, but the fact that the competitive roster is limited to about 4 characters based on their own abilities and a handful of others based on their ability to work well with assists is what bugs me. For this reason I find high level casual play much more interesting since it gives you a chance to see characters you would never see in a tournament. Of course the broken top tier chaos is exactly why so many people love it but...

As for them being shitfests, well that's your opinion, have fun with it.

will do.

Do tell.

Away from being MBACv2. It might not be as big of a jump as SF2 ST vs SF3S, but it still is making enough of a change to keep the game interesting. They could have rebalanced the game, altered some movesets, and thrown in the two new characters and called it a day, but they didn't. Multiple styles might not be some fighting game revolution but at least it's something new for the series.


Also as far as plot goes if you guys really care tatari can pretty much bullshit anything in, even when its not part of its power.

I can agree with this somewhat, but be reminded that yearly installments doesn't give you much time to give the game a major overhaul.  (Which is why SNK skipped a year this time to make KOFXII)


MB seems alright for now, but sooner or later they're going to need to do something completely different to go the path that Capcom did with SF (There are SF2 players, SF3 players, and SF4 players, they are not always the same group and all three games are very successful) in order to be more successful.

MB is constantly in the top 5 most played arcade games in Japan. Even when MBAC was apparently at the end of its life cycle, it still stayed within the top 10, outdoing games like GGXX.

All this crap about being more succesful has my head spinning because it's still in the top five and it probably will be for another 3-5 years. There's ALOT they haven't figured out yet with the game, but making a PS2 port with a new character or two isn't going to hurt it, and neither would adding more characters.

You guys are worried for nothing.

The game needs roa in a all purple pimp suit hat and cane included.

That would be the most awesome looking thing ever.

This is pretty much what I was going to say as well.  I'm a bigger fan of the blue hair as it's what I've known for so long and it contrasts well with Aoko, but the red hair would prolly be the new standard.

How about she starts the fight with blue hair + glasses on, then takes glasses off and turns into mean-Touko mode and her hair turns red? And then it can turn into fire when she activates an arc drive.

If she is in the game, you think she will want Tohno's glasses back?

That has absolutely nothing to do with her though, it's just a title bestowed on her on graduating from the Magic Academy.  In fact, she hates it, and wanted to get blue as her color (which coincides with the hair).  Anyway, either way she looks good, I just have grown accustomed to the original look more.  Her with red hair fits more as a sister to Aoko, since same color hair.

Blue hair is somewhat more interesting but also makes her kinda creepy looking.

Red hair just kinda made her generic looking.

Red hair would be used in any case since it's supposedly a retcon.

Even if MBAA port is good, and it doesn't matter if it was ps2/pc, it'll still be the same 5 people actually traveling (outside of their state) to events to play this game.

Oh, quit your anti-hype.  MBAA console is getting pretty hyped up and I'm all for it.  The melty scene actually has a decent amount of people who are willing to travel to events now and a ps2 port is only going to strengthen that.

Not being anti-hype, it's the truth really. The only people that I've seen travel out of their general are to tourneys are Chibi, Spooky, Zar, Bell, Zaelar, and a few others I might have forgotten. It's been that way for a couple years, I don't honestly see it changing. If people do end up traveling, that's great, they'll prove me wrong, but atleast Evo (not this year unfortunately) is pretty much the Melty major, it's just a shame it only happens once a year. I really do hope MBAA does blow up though, it has really been changed for the better. Ecole don't fuck this one up too.

according to mauve on a comparison of the isos for MBAC PS2 and that game, it doesn't even look like ecole touched that game. even if the sprite data for MBAC is low res, it was compressed well and the programming is really efficient. however the sprite data for that game looks like it was ripped straight from the arcade. uncompressed high-res sprites... raping the fuck out of the ps2's 32mb of ram and it gets dithered the shit out of it. so the programmer was pretty lazy... if they even had a programmer... that understood the limitations of the ps2.

pretty sure the guys at ecole know what they're doing when it comes to ports, blame examu imo

Well, MBAC is known as their best game they've ever churned, orka and Heartnana had this discussion in another channel a couple weeks ago. Looking on some of their older games, it was pretty easy figuring out how they fucked up Arcana 2 for ps2. How they got ps2 MBAC pretty well, we'll all never know really. Maybe it was their own game so they knew the "best" way to port it. Who knows, just hope it's a good port. The people at Ecole aren't even game programmers, they were something like scripters or something totally non game related. And yeah, Examu does fucking suck at trying to keep their fanbase happy.

I'm still confused on why everyone thinks Ecole did the AH2 port when their name is nowhere on the product, mauve was even looking at the code and said "This isn't ecole's work". Sheesh where the hell did that rumor start?
I found the answer while you weren't looking.

MBAA still runs of a NAOMI board so I'm not worried.  AH2 runs on a board with a gig of RAM.  PS2 can't handle that without some quality programing and apparently there was none.

There's no hierarchy. It's been confirmed that only 5A/2A/j.A lose to any B or C normal when they would normally both double counterhit. B and C all work as normal.

Also it should only apply to double counterhits or something that's a few frames away from a double counterhit maybe, and clashes I think ignore it regardless.

"Dear Thomas,

Thank you for contacting Play-Asia.com.

I think we can do some kind of coupon promotion for the game, but we did
not yet list the game, as we did not yet get an offer from our suppliers.

I suggest we keep in touch and work something out, as soon as we have the
game online.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

I'm starting to wonder if play-asia will even get the preorders for the limited edition.

Jesus christ I would fucking hang myself
Troubling news today, it appears world wide mass suicide has been happening at a alarming rate. What's this? This just in, it appears one left a message with their body, possibly leaving to the culprit. It reads, and I'll quote "FUCK YOU PLAY-ASIA, FUCK YOU." :V

This sounds like brawl all over again.......kids actually killing themselves cuz it got pushed back like 2months.....
This is fucking Type-moon related material. I'm willing to off whoever they want for a Tsukihime 2.
I dont need a tsukihime 2.
just a FUCKING SACCHIN ROUTE!
The time will never come.

Started the preorder process for the standard, but won't have the receipt until I get my new (non-expired) card in the mail and make Paypal stop yelling at me for updated information.  $20 extra for an OST isn't that big a deal to me, though if it comes with a nifty special edition box with cool boxart, then I might consider it.  I won't bother putting up the receipt though, since I'm not trying to get another meltybread email, lol.

Anyway, are you sure the links are the affiliate links?  I was under the expectation that it would take me directly to the game or something, but it just takes me to a generic search for Melty Blood.  I don't remember what the affiliate link was like last time, so I dunno if there's supposed to be any visual cue to tell the difference or whatever.

I intentionally made the link a Melty Blood search so that you could pick between the standard or limited edition of MBAA. But yes, it is a valid link.

I don't think so. It's exactly the same url when I go to play-asia and search for Melty manually. Unless this is is handled via sessions, I don't believe it will work.

As you can see, even though the URL doesn't match, it's still a valid click-through link. Compare the affiliate link in the screenshot with the banner's link above. Also, I have several preorders registered to my referral account already, so it's definitely working.

Also, regarding the google search bar: Recently watched The Wrestler (O'Rourke). :V

It's not that the files mutate, it's that people normally only rip stuff at a max of 256 instead of a lossless format.

Not necessarily true, it depends on multiple factors ranging from quality of the hardware setup to the person in question. So while for some it's nothing more then a placebo effect, for others you can actually tell the subtle differences.  :teach:

How would you make the custom music set for MBAA?

Edit
OH WAIT, you mean if you download an ISO and fuck around with it, aka ILLEGAL STUFF.  I really need to get together like 4 other people on here and form a sentai ranger-esque band of heroes to fight against the tyranny of pirating (in other words keep on newbies to read the rules and keep the pirating talk to a minimum).  Maybe I could even get Tom to make a custom user group with 5 of the prism rangers from Disgaea instead of the stars.  Pretty pro idea, amirite?

Oh, I see.  Disregard that, I suck cocks.  Vigilant Lolis should still be made though.  Shit would be lol.

It had one for Executioner Ciel too. But I sense those were just leftover data from Re-Act as PC Act Cadenza has G.Akiha/E.Ciel Sprites and leftover Re-Act stages.

Unless they're planning to make an AC Final Tuned or something. *shrugs*



Either way, it'd be nice to see those two again, especially an E.Ciel with a proper moveset.

Honestly, I had a hard time the first time I fought her because I didn't know how to deal with her permanent super armor.  I don't have much in the way of fighter experience, besides random scrubbiness between friends, so I'd never had to deal with ridiculous super armor bosses before.  After I got used to that, it was cake.  Just took me a battle to learn to fight smarter.

Like I said before about E.Ciel, with Arc just use Charge 5C. It clashes with her burst and still hits her for big damage(It was alittle better in ReAct). I found that out on the second round of fighting her for the first time.

Well her offense just STOPS after like a 4 hit block string. She's either going to go for 5B again, pot books / book tray, iad j.6b, or iad j.c (which fails because it will fucking whiff). Without dust she's severly limited to what she can do. And still, H-Hisui can do all of that save throw out book tray but then footstools > whatever she's got to use on the ground in F anyway.

You can see him stop early on a string or two because he doesn't have shit to follow up with because dust isn't available. Then he wises up, but it's still pretty limited.

H O L Y  S H I T ! !

I Feared that Ryougi would just be a spriteswap of Nanaya or Tohno, and if not she would probably be bottom-tier.
Glad to say: I was wrong! Also Cool that they used the music from the movies for her stage.

I am actually surprised that this new Akiha is a completely different character, I thought it was a skin
surprised on the positive side of course, its always good to have more characters... unless they are broken/suck

: MasterT May 22, 2009, 12:24:50 PM
No meter non-loop midscreen 5k combo by Akiha in video 1 vs Ryougi seems a bit much, but it's not like 15 seconds of gameplay footage is enough to judge by.

Ryougi's jumping double slash looks like it'll be a good air to air (assuming they don't give it awful priority for whatever reason).

I don't understand why they made a 3rd version of Akiha. Why couldn't they put in True Tohno Shiki or Elesia instead.  :'( At least Ryougi looks significantly different from Tohno and Nanaya.

My thoughts exactly. If they were willing to spend the time to put together another whole 3 movesets for a new akiha, it seems like it would have been time better spent on SHIKI Tohno. Seems the new Akiha has allot of different shapes for her Crimson Origami, and those designs could have been just as easily implemented for SHIKI's blood manipulation...thing. He's a claw user as well. Look at the the gameplay of new akiha. Now imagine that your seeing SHIKI fighting, and that the Origami is his blood ability (red liquid instead of red hair.) See the potential they just threw away here? As much as I love Akiha, we already have 3 versions of her....  :emo:

Oh well. At least Ryogi and the Bamboo Grove stage are deliciously awesome. Here's Hoping she gets a Kuji Kanesada Arc Drive/Last Arc. :fap: :fap: :fap: :fap:

H Nanaya only.  623c is basically the ultimate ground-to-ground punish.  It will guaranteed hit the opponent if they're not too high in the air.  At the right distance, your actual kick has a hitbox too though, so close enough to your opponent and you can hit with the kick from both you and the shadow.  As another additional bonus, the shadow's kick will launch the enemy towards you, since he hits from behind.

Actually, she does completely different things between C and F, if you notice.  F air normals have huge forward and upward range, while C air normals have more of a forward/downward arc to them.  Also, in F you see her do a rekka, while in C you see her do that jump-flip-slash thing.

Ahh, I noticed the air normal differences.  Re-watching the videos though, I mistook some ground normals as C's rekka (H-Nanaya vs C-Ryougi).   :mystery:
F-Ryougi does have the flip slash with very similar properties, if not identical, though (H-Roa vs F-Ryougi).

But I do see (and probably even imagine) more differences now.

PCSX2 plays about any 2d game flawlessly if your pc meets the ridiculously high requirements.
Nulldcnaomi plays mbac with some graphical problems (the screen flashes white each time somebody gets hit) so it should play mbaa as well.

  Yeah.  To run PCSX2 you need at least a dual core processor and a video card that supports pix shader 2.0.  Also when someone says the game is playable it doesn't mean it plays at a full 60fps.  PCSX2 is an amazing feat of programing but far from perfect.  So it you buy a copy of MBAA you maybe able to play it on your PC.

I was not talking about PCSX2 but SwapMagic.



  I think Swapmagic is how most of us are able to play import games on our US consoles.  I wouldn't call it an emulator just a disc that tricks your PS2 in to disregarding it region coding.

Twinniss indirectly turned me on to this ESR thing and let me tell you it's F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S
http://ps2-project.org/ps2p/includes/wiki/index.php5?title=ESR

But all this talk is really offtopic isn't it?
I'm not sure if I want to preorder this, because when the PC version rolls around who knows if it'll also have a limited edition with OST?
MBAC did and that's all I have to go on.

Yeah.  To run PCSX2 you need at least a dual core processor and a video card that supports pix shader 2.0.  Also when someone says the game is playable it doesn't mean it plays at a full 60fps.
Quad cores can handle it easily I hear.

It most likely will.  I still would rather not be left behind for a year while the other players excel though.  Beside, I actually own both the ps2 and pc versions of MBAC, so I'd like to keep with tradition and own the both of them for MBAA as well.

PCSX2 plays about any 2d game flawlessly if your pc meets the ridiculously high requirements.
Nulldcnaomi plays mbac with some graphical problems (the screen flashes white each time somebody gets hit) so it should play mbaa as well.




  Yeah.  To run PCSX2 you need at least a dual core processor and a video card that supports pix shader 2.0.  Also when someone says the game is playable it doesn't mean it plays at a full 60fps.  PCSX2 is an amazing feat of programing but far from perfect.  So it you buy a copy of MBAA you maybe able to play it on your PC.

I was not talking about PCSX2 but SwapMagic.



  I think Swapmagic is how most of us are able to play import games on our US consoles.  I wouldn't call it an emulator just a disc that tricks your PS2 in to disregarding it region coding.

Actualy with those specs you are pretty much sorted for 2D games as far as I can tell, it sucks for 3D (FUC juggling + lag = go make a cup of tea while gilgamesh does his buisness lol) but it can run Arcana Heart 2 at a decent rate with no slowdown apart from the character select screen and when a round is finished with a super and all those glowy balls go across the screen to forcibly violate the fps.

I mean I'd test it with a demo if one becomes available before buying the game but I don't see why a fairly decent computer couldn't run it, doesn't need to be top end the one I'm using is

Intel core 2duo CPU E400
2201 Mhz clock speed
And a Nividia GForce 8300 GS

So if your pc is like that or better it should be able to manage MBAA hopefully but probably best testing with a demo or a friend's copy before shelling out for it on playasia though if you just plan on playing it through an emulator.

Well they could always change it so that you press the D button to switch characters, ala Chaos/Neco-Chaos.

I could see amber-mech and neko-mech switchable that way as well as akiha/seifuku akiha, etc.

Itd leave a few more spaces open for new characters. TM DID say that they would be adding "More mysterious fighters" or whatever in the Ryougi profile on the JP site. I for one don't find anything "Mysterious" about amber mech and seifuku, so logically, there is probably going to be at least one more "New" character.

Heres hoping for tohko. we need a puppet master character, and it'd make sense for her to be there if Ryougi is.

Shed probably just play like Liselotte on crack, with multiple familiars instead of one puppet. Which is a good thing.

^this. Plus lorewise, Arihiko really shouldn't even know about wtf is going on. His only role in the story was to be the constantly clueless friend of Tohno. Having him fight Walachia and the gang doesn't really make much sense. Him suddenly becoming aware of what is going on completely kills his role as a character to begin with. Other then his connection to shiki, he has no real relevance to the plot whatsoever. (other then being a great source of comedy relief in an overall bleak setting). the only time he ever played a real role to the plot was when Ciel made everyone forget her after she left, and Shiki was shocked to realize that Arihiko didn't remember her.

Seeing Ryougi and Touko coming to hunt down Aoko, and seeing Tatari forming into Araya based on their old memories would make much more sense to the plot. Of course, seeing Neco arc, its kind of hard to take the plot seriously anymore. >_<

A good chunk of the cast doesn't make sense in lore/canon/plot or whatever other excuse you want to come up with. After the first game MB doesn't even force a central plot, just the basic arcade mode plot, so its a moot point.

Also MB is severely lacking in Bro characters which is why we need Arihiko.

Please don't. He's not that much of a comic relief character to the point where you can compare him to Dan (who is also awesome but that's a different story).

points well made. They might be able to do something like the miyako plot and have him just dealing with the sinister Neko's and Magical Amber while trying to save Tohno from the oppressive Tohno mansion and its seifuku overlord. Then getting knocked out by (insert character) and waking up the next morning wondering if it was all a crazy dream or not. Seems like itd work, and im gar for the idea of delinquent style and EX Motorcycle super, so what the hell.



I still don't know why people think that just because Ryougi is in, all of a sudden this opens the door to making it a Tsukihime vs Rakkyo fighter. Use dat melty brain.

Its mainly the fact that TM said that there would be "More mysterious fighters". And if you consider the fact that none of the characters from tsukihime can be considered "Mysterious" anymore, and the fact that the KnK movies popularity instantly boosts overall sales of MBAA whenever a key Rakkyo character is added, it makes sense that TM would add at least one more Rakkyo character, which is why alot of people logic that touko/araya might make it in. Or at least that's my logic anyway.

Yeah but it's still just delivered via arcade mode. It's not like all of the cast is directly related to the main plot to begin with, and again it's a fighting game, plot is not important.

Arihiko+Nanako combo would be pretty amazing.  I still say they should add in more unknowns from the Tsukihime lore, such as other Dead Apostles or Lorelei from the Magic Academy or someone else from from the Church executioner squad. (of course, what I'm really requesting is loli Altrouge)

But really, considering that they're already adding in 3 expected characters (both mecha teams and neco chaos) and 2 brand new characters (lolazaka and ryougi)...they're prolly not gonna be adding in any others.  Plus, the only unlockables they've ever had in the past were just joke charas who weren't even worthy for their own space on the chara select screen.  I'm not expecting anything new in terms of characters.
: Re: Melty Blood: Actress Again PS2 version in August Confirmed (now with Ryougi!)
: Yotsuyoru May 28, 2009, 10:39:52 AM
Yeah, I'm keeping my hopes low character wise as well.

Unknowns would be very intriguing however, and the Dead Apostles are so alone in the roster with just Nero, Roa and TATARI anyways.  I'm personally hoping for Tohno SHIKI to be the last one before that though.  He's partly unknown since his un-inverted personality was never lucidly shown without a hint of Roa.  This is of course granted that his insanity is also part of his charm.

I wonder how they are to deal with the Arcade version after this though, sell a character patch?

: ShinMasaki May 28, 2009, 11:34:18 AM
It's going to end up like Mahval with the character select screen before you know it  :slowpoke:

As far as lore goes for Melty, isn't the basis on Melty that everything in the game is because of the presence of Tatari? If so, since Tatari would materialize the demons of whoever, Araya/Shirazumi would work in the game since they are anti-Ryougi. In addition, I'm sure you could fit Arihiko in then...I mean, the plot line for Miyako seems silly enough. Best friend Arihiko wants to be able to hang out with Tohno/score points with little sister so he fights to free Tohno from oppressive Seifuku sister/score a date with Seifuku sister.

There's a lot of stuff from Kagetsu Tohya that shows that he likes Akiha-chan, even ditching potential lunch with his cute and generous senpai for Akiha-chan. The potential for Seifuku Akiha-chan may throw him into wanting to fight to see that.

Round 1 - 666 beasts, round 2 -Actually Fightable 999th beast? sounds like win to me.

If were throwing in uber characters for bosses, i vote for Tatari Satsujinki. Finally something that a VILLAIN fears gets turned into an opponent. (Shield or Die blondie!)


And i take back everything i said about Arihiko. He'd be perfect for MB. ("Nanako Liberation" story mode for Arihiko anyone? That picture Okuhoshi posted would be the perfect finale.)

Thank god im not the only one who wants him in. Chaos and SHIKI were my favorite Tsukihime villains. I actually sympathized with SHIKI alot more then i did Shiki through allot of Tsukhime. SHIKI got royally shat on thanks to Roa.

errr a crapload of our posts were us hoping for SHIKI. this was just before we brought up Arihiko XD

Arihiko+Nanako combo would be pretty amazing.  I still say they should add in more unknowns from the Tsukihime lore, such as other Dead Apostles or Lorelei from the Magic Academy or someone else from from the Church executioner squad. (of course, what I'm really requesting is loli Altrouge)

This. But for that matter I would sacrifice a'many of innocent lives to get more unknowns lore.  :fap:

If were throwing in uber characters for bosses, i vote for Tatari Satsujinki. Finally something that a VILLAIN fears gets turned into an opponent. (Shield or Die blondie!)
This confuses me.  Who are you referring to by blondie?  After all, Shiki became Satsujinki to protect Arc while she was vulnerable in her self induced coma.  Satsujinki should never be introduced to the game for the same reason that ORT and Zelretch shouldn't be introduced.  Too overpowered.  It'd make me sad to ever see any of them be able to be beaten by the likes of any of the normal cast.

Here's what I think would be worthwhile additions to the cast.
-SHIKI would be interesting as a character and have a lot of style.  
-Arihiko would bring more humor to the game outside of random ass neco shit, while still being potentially playable.  
-Touko would be really unique with puppet shenanigans and rune magic.  
-Altrouge would be pro with assists/summons and shit since she has an entourage of 3 of the top dead apostles (primate murder, rizo-waal strout, fina-blood svelton).  

And here's some of the more obscure, but still awesome ones.
-Kiri Nanaya would be a badass tonfa weilder.
-Ortenrosse would be a good scary enemy boss guy, since he's the one organizing the hunt against Arcueid and one of the two leader-types among the dead apostles.
-Merem Solomon or the forest Einnashe would be the best over the top boss fights ever - Einnashe being a battle against the very stage you're standing in, Merem having a multi-tiered boss fight against each of his limbs.  

Most of the rest seem pretty pointless to include without really stretching to include them.  Also more KnK characters could be included, but I dunno.  Azaka is just an Akiha clone with the abilities tweaked.  Araya is just...boring as a fighting game character.  He has a three layer bounded barrier and uh...he was a monk in the past.  Cool?  =\  Fujino or Fujyou would be cool, but there's absolutely no reason for them to be included at all.  Mikiya is...not suited for a fighter.  lol.  And Lio is a failure cannable.  Whatever.  No more KnK unless it's Touko, imo.

Sorry, by Blondie i meant Wallachia. Not Arcueid. Satsujinki would be probably the only character that could actually perma kill the TATARI. (TATARI probably has that "built up existence" thing that made Araya immune to Ryougi's eyes or w/e, so i doubt she'd be able to do it.) Since hes the only true threat to TATARI, then it would finally have something to fear, and inadvertently create it that way. (final boss battle for playable TATARI characters?)

As for Satsujinki being to OP to be a boss in melty, i kinda find it lulzy that you turn around and say that you want Altrouge playable since she, you know, beat Arcueid when she was at 100% power. (correct me if im wrong, but isnt MB Arcueid at somewhere between 5-30% max?) Unless of course were talking TATARI Altrouge here, since TATARI can't emulate characters of that power level fully, thus the actually BEATABLE Red Arcueid. (and by that logic, beatable Satsujinki.)


Here's what I think would be worthwhile additions to the cast.
-SHIKI would be interesting as a character and have a lot of style.  
-Arihiko would bring more humor to the game outside of random ass neco shit, while still being potentially playable.

-Altrouge would be pro with assists/summons and shit since she has an entourage of 3 of the top dead apostles (primate murder, rizo-waal strout, fina-blood svelton).  

Agreeing with all, assuming that Lolirouge is a TATARI for plot/power level purposes. Though having 3 characters that are all greater or equal to Nero Chaos as summons is kinda imba. Maybe having the Butt Pirate and Black Knight as summons, but Super Dog too? Hes boss level himself. (theres evidence to suggest that PM is stronger then Altrouge is actually. O_O)

And here's some of the more obscure, but still awesome ones.

TATARI, I'm guessing this is refering to The Night of Warachia, has died off permanently since the end of the first Melty Blood.  Warachia was immune to the eyes because he was a phenomenon, fixed by the Crimson Moon summon due to the rules he has.  Araya was never fully immune to Ryougi's eyes because of the aged material used in his coat, which I believe only had served the effectiveness to block sight of the lines.

TATARI, I'm guessing this is refering to The Night of Warachia, has died off permanently since the end of the first Melty Blood.  Warachia was immune to the eyes because he was a phenomenon, fixed by the Crimson Moon summon due to the rules he has.  

By Tatari, i mean the literal Curse. Not Zepia, who yes, has been dead since Melty 1 IIRC. (Arc Summoned the crimson moon to force Zepia to materialize instead of a fear aparition, and shiki point-stabbed.)

The curse itself is not under the natural laws of the world, such as normal death. Shiki does not understand death concepts outside of what he's already experienced, ergo, he cant kill the curse itself in MB. He could only target the herald of the curse, Zepia, who was forced into his true form, separate from TATARI when Arc summoned the crimson moon. (IIRC, TATARI has since switched over to either White Len or Sion.)  Satsujinki on the other hand, WHO KNOWS what the guy has learned/experienced. If he were to understand the rules around TATARI, theoretically he COULD kill it. Simply because we know nothing about Satsujinki means that he could be used for almost any scenario that tohno cant be used in. Satsujinki = Tohno with complete mastery of his assassination skills and his MEoDP. So if Satsujinki could target the TATARI, (Not zepia, the TATARI itself), then he would be a threat to it. Thus the TATARI would fear it, and involuntarily summon him out of its own fear. Of course, im wondering if a curse can even feel fear... If not, then Satsujinki couldn't even be summoned in the first place, and this entire discussion was pointless.  :emo:
Araya was never fully immune to Ryougi's eyes because of the aged material used in his coat, which I believe only had served the effectiveness to block sight of the lines.

I haven't read KnK Chapter 5 yet, (since i haven't found it translated), so I'l take your word for it.

As do I with The Night of Warachia.  By the pact of Altrouge Brunstud, Zepia Eltnam was made a phenomenon using the Crimson Moon and was set to end when the Crimson Moon appears once more.  By this, Zepia = The Night of Warachia(TATARI); Zepia being dead means there's no one to become a phenomenon for requirements to continue to be met. 

The temporal replacement was White Len with her bringing out rejected sides instead of fear, but Melty as of MBAA has already passed this point of which, fear materializes by curse.

This sets the stage for Sion, who is calculated to be the successor to TATARI.  But that's another story for MBAA to tell you directly about.

If not, then Satsujinki couldn't even be summoned in the first place, and this entire discussion was pointless.  :emo:

I want loli Altrouge, aka her first form.  She has a second form which she's very rarely ever revealed.  This is her true strength and she had to go all out to beat Arc (and she had original body Roa to help her).  She wouldn't be OP, though her with the Knights and Primate Murder could definitely be considered OP.  lol

And thanks, I think the multi-tiered Merem battle would be pretty fun, especially considering how ridiculous his limbs are.

I was under the impression that TATARI was something that controlled a host as it travels and does TATARI stuff. Which is why i believed that Zepia and TATARI were two different things. Do you have a source stating that Zepia HIMSELF is the phenomenon and not a separate curse called "TATARI"? If so, il gladly admit defeat.

If not, then Satsujinki couldn't even be summoned in the first place, and this entire discussion was pointless.  :emo:

Touche.

Besides, why settle only for TATARI Satsujinki when you can root for having the whole honking real deal. :P

The reason that I wanted TATARI Satsjujinki was that someone stated (accurately) that the "real" Satsjujinki would be broken as all hell. And since the only thing that would fear Satsujinki enough to materialize him instead of something else like red arc or Nero would be the TATARI curse itself, since Satsujinki is the only thing that can kill it. (Or so I think. This can of course all be total BS if im wrong about Zepia and TATARI being separate things.)

Source:http://www2.ocn.ne.jp/~typemoon/tsukihime/characters.htm (http://www2.ocn.ne.jp/~typemoon/tsukihime/characters.htm) under Wallachia

The reason that I wanted TATARI Satsjujinki was that someone stated (accurately) that the "real" Satsjujinki would be broken as all hell.

(Or so I think. This can of course all be total BS if im wrong about Zepia and TATARI being separate things.)
Satsujinki is too relatively unknown, still waiting for that mushroom.  But, in my opinion, TATARI's powers can envelop Shiki's and more with exception to the Mystic Eyes, an idea seemingly dropped after TATARI Nanaya never had them again.  From the way I see it, Shiki dropped using his eyes for his life, hence the bandages, and all this potential and skill he's showing is really just him.

At this point in time, Tohno Shiki's potential is just too unknown and under estimated for the DA's to care, else they'd had sent some peeps to assassinate him beforehand.  Though fast forwarding, Satsujinki was known as DEATH to the DA's, so that may materialize if they really (I hope they don't, there has to be something more creative =O) just recycle any TATARI-similar powers.  Granted, DEATH will look nothing like Shiki, and you won't be "fighting" him if you choose the protagonists.

But, rambling aside, as a fighting game, and respect to Sacchin's route where powerlevels are relatively more flat, I doubt Satsujinki would be broken if he were to appear, and he would be a chance to get some people the "Nanaya" moveset they wanted.

Now time for the brightest note

I bet my ass the final boss of MB series is going to be Warakinya

(http://i42.tinypic.com/2nr26i8.jpg)
KYATTOKYATTOKYATTOKYATTOKYATTOKYATTO

That's more like Sionya actually.

I have both ReAct and KT in my computer so hopefully my information is accurate.

In KT, Nanaya doesn't have the MEoDP because he's the possible scenario if Shiki had undergone demon-hunting training and never experienced the Tohno lifestyle that brought him to that fateful near-death experience.

In ReAct, I wouldn't say that Nanaya is the same Nanaya in KT. In the story routes, TATARI materialized the rumour that there was a boy in school uniform going around killing people with a knife, a result of the events a year ago (Tsukihime storyline). Also, the Nanaya in ReAct wanted to kill other regular people. If it was the Nanaya in KT, I think he would only focus on demons and not bother to kill normal people.

(http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x311/burstofanger/1.jpg)

Taken from the Red Demon God side-story. The Nanaya clan is considered as Demon Hunters.

Not only that, another route shows that TATARI materialized the possible scenario if Shiki succumbed to his desire to kill things and went on a bloody rampage. One proof is when you defeat him, Nanaya starts stabbing himself because his own self is the closest and easiest thing to kill.

Also, regarding Kiri's weapon:

I'm not tryin to argue anything,  just want to discuss things I see in the game.
I almost only read Nanaya's storyline word by word in the MBR, so I'm not sure whats the whole thing going on
However, Wlen says the Nanaya she summon is "the part shiki doesn't use" . I believe that's the "nanaya personality " shiki has. It appeared in the fight of NeroChaos, and this Nanaya has that memory (he says something like "we didn't have a proper 'killing each other' fight" to Nero)
Since that's a FTG, Nanaya have to fight everyone before reaching wlen (the one he says he really want to kill in the begining *we knew he wont, he's a lolicon, he's a tsunderu, but that's mbac storylol* ) but he might not kill those regular people as well

what I see:
KT: nightmare nanaya: want to kill shiki
MB; Tatari nanaya: might want to kill everyone else as well
MBR:  summon nanaya:  he's more likely a regular nanaya/demon hunter, he only kills demon
MBAC:  the possibility of shiki raise by nanaya family: he became a lolicon
MBAA:  Wlen's pet/socall "master" : WUT....he really became a nice guy and tsunderu!

I just made this kid went dizzy. What a pain, my master told me not to fight with a girl.
....I guess I will take her home....

It was from Kagetsu Tohya.  It was just before it was translated by mirror moon, and was just posted up on Beasts Lair.  I thought they were tonfa because what I remember most was the descriptions of how he used them - stabbing and smashing.  Having them be large sticks/awls works more or less the same.

being totally fair there's not really much to talk about.

20 second clips don't really say much for Ryougi except REKKA and JESUS STUPID RANGE. Same for SAkiha. Most interesting videos or related clips to the game are linked on irc, not here (or the video forum), and nobody has the game to point out or experiment with anything at home yet.

fanwankery is still a tad excessive but considering the game I can't be surprised.

I see absolutely no problem talking about people we would just like to see in the game, and saying what their moves could possibly be. We were merely making a few jokes(about either the game itself, or characters involvement in it) and having fun. if it bothers people they could just like, not post in the topic or something.

Wait, so two guys came, complained about what was going on in the topic, and now everyone has either left it, or feels FORCED to like, post gameplay videos or something? Thats stupid. I see absolutely no problem talking about people we would just like to see in the game, and saying what their moves could possibly be. We were merely making a few jokes(about either the game itself, or characters involvement in it) and having fun. if it bothers people they could just like, not post in the topic or something.

Shouldn't the majority of the real interesting character specific stuff be posted in their character forums anyway?  That's what I've been doing mostly, other than random hype moments that I post up here.

Chibi, that's not too far of from the truth. :( Anyways, I'll just ask this question again since the Ciel boards are dead and no one answered it so far.

So like does anyone know anything about the specific properties on F-Ciel's j.214C on block? Everytime I see a F-CIel land this move they block the knife, but still gets hit by the shadow. Is the shadow unblockable or something? I'd figure someone who played the game would know something about it. Also...236A/B is chargable? Which style we're talking here? <-- figured Scott was talking about half seeing he's talking about the height of her jump.

If you guys want to talk about gameplay explain to me this Half Moon heats at 200% thing to me, and are there any other Heat system modifications throughout the styles?
: Re: Melty Blood: Actress Again PS2 version in August Confirmed (now with Ryougi!)
: HRGS|忍 June 02, 2009, 10:48:59 AM
Brandon: I think the shadow is air unblockable. People usually poke or jump in the air to dodge it but can't. I've seen lots of people block it on the ground tho.

CX805: There are plenty of modifications throughout the 3 moon styles, most of which are on Full Moon. I'll try my best to explain it to you.

Crescent/C-Moon system:
- 300% to Max Heat
- You can activate heat before you reach Max Heat but you must have atleast 100% meter to do it.
- If you activate heat during Max Heat, you enter Blood Heat which means your health will generate faster.
- Time stops when you are in either Heat or Blood Heat, not Max Heat.
- Use of Shield/EX Shield mechanics. Only moon to have EX Shield.
- Circuit Spark is manual and must be used when in Max Heat.

Half/H-Moon system:
- 200% to Max Heat (which is just Heat in this system)
- Heat is automatically activated when you reach 200%. If you are knocked down by the time you reach 200%, it will go into heat when you get back up.
- There is no "burst" effect when you heat. This is replaced by auto circuit spark.
- No Blood Heat mode.
- Use of 5a6aa strings for all characters.
- Auto Shield counters. A invincible move comes out after your shield automatically and from there you can combo from it. (Can you hold the counter from coming out?)
- You automatically circuit spark when you are hit in Heat Mode, which ends Heat.

Full/F-Moon system:
- 300% to Max Heat
- Heat can obtained before Max Heat, but it must be done through a canceling of a move which is called Initiative Heat. This is somewhat the Roman Cancel of the game.
- When you reach Blood Heat, all of your red life is recovered at that moment. Downside is that the clock does not stop in this Blood Heat.
- Auto Shield counters just as in Half.
- You can circuit spark manually just as in Crescent.
- You can not Reverse Beat in this system, which means you obey the button order A>B>C for combos and strings.

I may have missed a few things, but this is most of it.

Not that it really matters, but I'm not liking that cover art. I honestly thought it was going to be the image on the official MB directory website because if you look, the images they have listed for MBAC PS2 and ver.B PC were the same ones they used for the cover art for those games. Doesn't seem that way this time around. But I like the image on the official website MUCH better.

No. Full Moon can Last Arc. You have to shield with the same timing as EX Shield. It just doesn't actually say "EX Shield" but rather "Shield" on the screen when you do it.

Well I figured it's air unblockable, but what I don't get is that I see players block the knife and yet get hit by the shadow.
Multipart move. The knife itself is airblockable but not the shadow. You'll block if it it's thrown high enough and you block it high in the air, or if it's thrown point blank and then the knife goes down and the wave misses you. Roa's DP is also this way. The first few hits can be airblocked but if you block them the last hit is air unblockable and will hit you anyways.

We have a framedata topic... j/k I know it's a bitch to try to figure out what move is what and it took me a bit of pain myself to look it up.

That attack is retarded. I never would have known if I didn't look it up, but the knife can be blocked in all positions, the wave hits low. It can't be airblocked or blocked high. The knife itself is a 1000 damage knife, the wave does 100 damage, no red or guard damage on block, 17f blockstun like normal, and holds the opponent in a stun state on hit.

Wow what the fuck that sounds like some Eddie unblockable shit right there.

That was just a DP. You can't "delay" auto-shield counter. It won't counter projectiles, and anything caught in multihit autoshield will still get multihit shielded, but everything else gets autocountered as soon as the shield ends.

It's pretty much like Just Defend or Instant Block, except it restores a bit of guard meter...and it doesn't reduce blockstun like JD.

The same thing as in MBAC: EX Shield can be normal cancelled and special cancelled, Shield can only be special cancelled. Auto shield counter/manual shield counter for Full are both considered specials, so those can be done out of Shield. You can only 5D 5A for example if you get an EX Shield. That's why everyone says getting normal Shields in MBAC are suicide, because 5DA is a really common antiair.

Oh, and in MBAA, EX Shields don't weaken your guard bar. Shields do even if you land the shield. Whiff Shields weaken it even more.

Do not get EX Guard in AA confused with any other type of instant block like GG or Samurai Shodown as these usually decreases the blockstun and/or advantage if done correctly. EX Guard only gives back your guard meter, nothing else. Thanks to those UP/CF (or w/e arcade ya'll go to) fags (love ya'll no homo) for the information.

I don't really understand why you guys like this boxart better.  The composition is basically the same comparing the two.  I suppose the normal art is easier on the eyes, since the palette is mostly analogous, but I still like the more bold limited edition better.

Sauce: GameStar

I’m guess we will see characters like Giant Akiha, Ciel Holy Scripture version, Re-Act White Len, Re-ACT Aoko, Neco Chaos Black G666, and Dust of Osiris here?

There's a lot of delicious looking fone cards too. All of which are available from pre-ordering from whatever their respective sites. HOWEVER, after visiting a few of these sites, it looks like these are Japan-only delivery. I want the Ryougi and Ciel cards.  :'(   The maids' card looks fun too.

Also, the limited ed box art > regular ed. Why? because it's got Ryougi and Seifuku Akiha on it.  :fap: :fap:

Roastbeef and Roa are meh.  :mystery:

Agree with LoliSauce I don't know why you guys like the normal edition cover better (although it is kinda cool) but I like limited edition cover better since Tohno Shiki is there and he the main charater in the game (i think). Man it should come with a figure with it like F/UC but oh well telephone card are cool...

for Tsukihime, Tohno Shiki is the main character. For Melty Blood, the role of main character is divided (or was divided?) between both Sion and Shiki. I say that Sion deserved the spot more as main character...she became S tier.

Oh, and in addition to my above post:

- PS2 version game balance

The PS2 version will be a tweaked version of the Arcade version with improved game balance. But you can also select the Arcade version game balance as well

Hopefully when it says "Arcade version", it means ver A and the PS2 is improved balancing from there (read: Ciel becomes useful again)

At 6:44, H-Shiki is in Heat but while being combo'd by H-Sacchin he does not spark. Any thoughts? I think it has something to do with the combo starting from a throw-property move ie Ex-Air Grab.

Also, at 10:11

You won't spark during a combo if the first hit was something that doesn't cause a spark. What defines that is a little iffy. Double counterhits will never cause you to spark, so if you trade with Aoko starmine while you're in the air for example, Aoko can get a combo off on you that way without you sparking. Throws don't either, but I don't know what determines it exactly, because there's obvious "throws" that will just not cause a spark, but at the same time things like Sion's whip has throw properties (if it didn't there would be no way for the whip to cause the opponent to be in a standing state when they're hit OTG or from the air) and I think that will cause a spark. Other circuit sparks don't cause autospark, and I don't think heat activate does, but neither of those can be comboed off of.

EDIT: I don't actually know why double counterhits are made to not spark after the first hit. Double counterhits don't cause spark because if the trade is in your favor the spark would not let you follow up immediately, and it would screw up your combo. Throws don't ever spark because there could be some really glitchy stuff that would happen if some throws were sparked, and I don't know if the game has a real way of indicating which hits in a combo are from multihit throws and which hits are just from a followup combo to the throw.

I want to ask something about H-moon's shield auto counter. Does it always come out instantly? And does it 100% come out? Because in this vid:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ok6fxR43AII

from Meltybread's very own channel, H-Nero shields some jetpacks and 1)the counter doesn't come out (6:16) and 2)it comes out delayed (6:20)

Edit: Ok, I just remembered that the auto counter doesn't come out when you shield projectiles or the opponent is too far away. But that shows that if you move close to the opponent after you shield and are still in the air, the counter comes out. Technically, the auto shield counter can be delayed I guess.

Akiha sure has muscle legs.

So, I'm browsing the net for new Ryougi ingame material but since a patch for Arcades seems to come out only after PS2 release or at the same time, it's useless. Also, certain people are going to lurk faster for sure.

Depends. In F/UC, did they ever announce that Zero/Lancer would be playable? Or did we all just find that out when the game was released?

IIRC, Leysrit, Saber Alter, and Bazete were all announced prior, but i don't remember anything about Z/L.

Maybe itl be the same kind of thing, and well just get a surprise new addition when the game is released.

Of course, correct me if im wrong about any of this.  :psyduck:

: ShinMasaki June 22, 2009, 11:46:26 AM
It does feel slightly slower. Although the game (from gameplay vids) looks faster, this is probably due to the increased stage size and how far back the game zooms. You can pull further back and combos can extend longer. When close together, the screen zoom is the standard for MBAC; think Arcana. That is just my guess at it, when in close combat, it felt about the same as MBAC, but the ranged game feels a little slower, the aerial game as well.

Well a friend of mine who is very particular on game mechanics noticed that MBAA (at least for the arcades in SG) felt slower compared to MBAC. And that hitboxes were weirder and harder to predict. Like everyone turned into Ciel from MBAC or something LOL. Also larger hitboxes for ground normals.

The difference not something you can tell from just watching vids. You have to play it for yourself.

Then again, it could be a function of what character he was using. He mains Maids with Hisui lead.

I won't be having the chance to try it out for myself until the PS2 port comes out, so was just curious.

Half moon autospark doesn't activate on double counter hit.  This is probably so if the half moon character is trying to trade hits with an anti air they can still combo instead of being forced to spark.

Seriously, if there hasn't, don't make an issue out of a non-issue, you're being silly if you do.  Mech and Neco is still interesting to me, I'm sure Neco Arc Chaos will be garbage that nobody uses when there is money on the line.  Kohaku and Mecha is a serious team I would imagine and there's no point in complaining over it.

Well I guess I have seen a Neco Arc once in an MBAA tourney, so who knows.

utter stupidity. I'm mad close to banning these chars from BBG. Why must they continue to go down this road and create/bring back obscure and joke characters/teams.

...just stupid....whatever

p.s. fuck NAC

Seifuku Akiha too?

Nah, the initial two new chars (ryougi, s.akiha) are a nice addition to the series but do we really need more characters that are 10pixels high and silly tag teams (I always thought there were some flaws with the original maid team but w/e).

Although the clone character thing is getting out of hand (THREE akihas?!) it seems to be the theme for melty blood...

(wait's for SHADOW YOUNG AOKO)

Not only 3 Akihas, but 3 Mechs, 3 Kohakus, and 3 Necos. (Counting NAC.)

Well I guess I have seen a Neco Arc once in an MBAA tourney, so who knows.

every game has joke characters, that's not really the big deal. when tournament organizers ban a character it's because they don't want some randomer walking in and using a character that is either broken or that nobody will have ANY experience against (because nobody plays them because they suck) and beating a good amount of people purely because of this. As someone who will shamefully admit that they mained NAC for a long period of time in mbac before realising how fucking stupid it really is, I can assure you you can beat genuinely good players at least a few times if they have low neco experience just by doing extremely stupid simple shit.

Necos are worse in this sense than other joke characters because their hitboxes and attack properties fuck people up even more.
: Re: Melty Blood: Actress Again PS2 version in August Confirmed (now with Ryougi!)
: Benny1 August 12, 2009, 01:21:46 PM
I see, so you're not hurting any serious players, and just hurting random jackasses you don't want in the first place.

Carry on banning them then.  Keep in mind I'm not under the impression that Mecha and Neco and Mech+Kohaku can even change leads, their movelists don't have a command for it, at least.

That leaves a lot of room for additions to his move set, he doesn't have that much set in stone. Also, another guy to the heavily female roster.

  There were location tests for this game.  I'm sure if there were problems it would have been heard about by now.  Although I haven't seen one video of a location test or one review from one.

Like Benny1 said, most places tend to be strict.

The loke tests for MBAA were at stores, but a majority...if not all Japanese stores prohibit the use of Cameras inside.
Same with arcades, many do not allow Cameras to record or take pictures.

Although I haven't seen one video of a location test or one review from one.
Like Benny1 said, most places tend to be strict.

The loke tests for MBAA were at stores, but a majority...if not all Japanese stores prohibit the use of Cameras inside.
Same with arcades, many do not allow Cameras to record or take pictures.

That explains the low amount of footage

Mine is shipped as well.  Jeez, what an eventful day.  Those bastards really juked everyone with ANOTHER added character.  Btw, I'm adding in Archetype Earth, MechaNeko, and KohaNeko sections right now.  I'm going to list MechaNeko and KohaNeko as teams, even if they're not actually tag teams like HisuKoha.  It can be changed later if necessary.

And I dunno why everyone's tripping about MBAA being unplayable.  It was already basically confirmed that Ecole had nothing to do with AH2, so quit your whining.  This shit is gonna be great.

Edit:
Should I make a front page post about these new screens or just wait until videos pop up?

I'll main F/C Miyako, but I'm interested in fooling around with C/F Ryougi, F Shiki, and maaaybe F Warc.  Also, just to keep my tradition since MBR, I'll occasionally play a scrubby Sacchin and cry at how poor I am with her.  Miyako and Ryougi are the only ones I'm majorly interested in though.

I'm still fundamentally against playing H style.  Half moon haters 4 lyfe.

It was probably some glitch actually because I actually have Boss Rush mode unlocked too as well as all the Special content. Only thing I don't seem to have is Arche-Type Earth.

Glitch is probably due to the fact that this is an illegitimate copy on a really crappy DVD that is probably more useful as a frisbee. It's so bad that the game freezes if Ciel is attempted to be used, which is why I haven't gone through Arcade. But oh well, this glitch sure saved time for when my limited edition comes in :toot:

On that note anyone unlock Archetype Earth yet?

Unlocking Type Earth requires you to get 100% everything unlocked (including gallery shit).  From there I've heard one source say that he just beat arcade with Ryougi and she unlocked.  Another source said you have to beat boss rush with anyone and she'll be unlocked.

Either way, you have to have full complete before you unlock her, and she's totally not worth it.

Also, the easiest way to unlock everything is to beat Boss Rush with Tohno without losing a single round.  Doing that once will unlock EVERYTHING except for Type Earth.

played arcade with all characters that unlocks the other, then i did boss rush losing rounds, then i cleared arcade other 5-6 times and all cutscenes were unlocked, did arcade with ryougi twice, then i did boss rush again
cleared arcade with other 2 chars then Archetype appeared, wat

fap to ryougi and unlock type earth?

type earth isn't unlocking on mine. everyone unlocked, 8+ hours, boss rush yada yada, and still no type earth. i came buckets when i fought an eclipse style ryougi, though. i want E-Ryougi.

How'd you randomly fight and eclipse style Ryougi? Survival? Or just like randoming all day in VS CPU

i dunno. my buddy was over the other day playing through with Roa and fought eclipse-ryougi. Earlier today (yesterday?) i was going through with Ciel and get E-Ryougi. sexy stuff. :fap:

From GameFAQ:
Unlocks:
Kohaku & Mecha Hisui:
Beat Arcade Mode with Neco Arc's "A" path ("A" path=the first enemy is Koha & M-Hisui)
Neco Arc Chaos:
Beat Arcade Mode with Hisui and White Len
Mech Hisui & Neco Arc:
Beat Arcade Mode with Miyako (the last enemy is M-Hisui & Neco Arc)
Tohno Akiha School Uniform Version:
Beat Arcade Mode with Tohno Akiha and Akiha Vermillion
Boss Rush mode:
Beat Arcade Mode with all characters, or all the chars are need to be unlocked (coz sometimes if you beat arcade mode with a char it will unlock other chars's endings)

Fight Ryougi Shiki in Arcade Mode:
To fight Ryougi Shiki, win at least four matches before the eighth with Perfects and without losing a match. She'll fight you after the seventh match.

Play as Archetype: Earth in her Crescent Moon Style:
First you need to play as Archetype: Earth in her Eclipse Style. Then select her again by using the random character option. When you finally select her she will be in her Crescent Moon Style. Archetype: Earth in her Crescent Moon Style appears to be a phototype or a beta character. She has lots of glitches and sprite bugs.

Archetype Earth Arcueid:
She is mystery. Lots of version are:
- need 8+ hours gameplay
- beat Boss Rush with Tohno Shiki without losing a single round
- beat Aracade mode with all chars

As for me:
I beat Arcade with Tohno, Ryougi, Akiha, Vakiha NA, Nanaya, Warachia, Miyako, after Miyako all remaining secret chars are unlocked (except Princess Arc) including boss rush mode. Then I beat Boss Rush on medium with Tohno but losing rounds. Then I tryed at max difficulty with Ryougi then after a couple of tryes Archtype Earth is unlocked (I only managed to reach Aoko - 4th Boss).

My new main is:
C-Ryougi, she rox
C-Shiki stayed as alter main, sometimes F/H Shiki (need practice)
all Warc as 2nd main, need to be practise/test with H/F versions
H-Vakiha as 3rd main
F-Vsion as new playable char

Question:
Does anyone confirm Executioner Ciel is in the game? I heard Ecole programmed her into the game but dunno she will surely in the game's final version product (PS2?).

No. Powerd Ciel, Damien Armies and Neco Chaos Black G666 were pulled before release for some reason or another. Only leftover data remains.

Using memory hacks you can forcibly select Eclipse style for any character, but it's not any different from Crescent style except for the power bar.
There must be some other flag that has to be set to allow me to pick the true boss versions...

It actually is a bit different from crescent. You have less EX Edge moves, the characters play even closer to AC than Crescent does, some characters [Arc, Tohno, Sion, Wara] can auto-counter on shielding and your attacks do way more damage than they should. [I spent way more time than I should have actually playing around with Eclipse Style.  :V]

There must be some other flag that has to be set to allow me to pick the true boss versions...
The boss rush characters are weird. There's a flag that makes the game append "b_" to the front of the character's name when loading their data files in boss rush mode. I wish I knew how to trigger it all the time though.  :psyduck:

Sounds like that fake eclipse style some people have. IIRC, you also didn't have a guard bar. That was value... 3 I think? Use 9, see how it works for you.

    The princess of the True Ancestors. Arcueid’s true form.
    A True Ancestor of high purity, a representation of the aspect of the planet’s feelers. It’s not an alternate personality of Arcueid, the normal Arcueid is the same as what she is.

    Her appearance this time is where she has temporarily borrowed the body. For Arcueid’s body to return to this form, she will apparently have to first get back her hair which was taken away from her.

sorry for double posting guys, but you have to see this:

http://d.hatena.ne.jp/video/niconico/sm8096250

particularly from 4:30

it seems that the Eclipse style was created for all chars, but dropped out (just like Ciel, damien armies and G666)
just look at Warc awesome effects, they aren't broken, and complete in-game without strange effects
i bet they used something like action replay/codebreaker or some savegame hack

damn i only hope the pc version will be 100% complete

It's pretty much 100% if you ask me.
Having them as boss characters in some extended Boss Rush mode would be fine enough, but we really don't need them as playable characters in case you were getting at that.
Although hacking the game and taking what you want is fine of course, just like with the bosses of the earlier versions.
