[Xavori]

Is Kohaku's sword really changed to 214?

[HeartNana]

I played the location test of MB:AA for a bit. A lot of stuff i posted was already explained, but for more detailed sion and riese explanations, you can check it out in my blog (see sig)

[okuhoshi]

 ->"oh fuck, wara summoned the cloud, get out" "why? what does it do?" "I HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA"

for sucking health and magic like Akiha's 22... that's what people say from japanese bbs orz

・214で壊れたテレビ風モザイク召還。効果は秋葉の獣と同じくダメージ。
EX版はダメージ量は多い。が、目の前にしか出せないっぽいから微妙

[Kadoya Akira]

It would be good if Wara's mist could make his moves unblockable like GG Johnny's mist XDDD

Need more Reeze videos /o/
From what I could read(thanks for the infos Nana) she seems to be a rushdown character, isn't it? o.o

[LoliSauce]

Edited my post, upgraded with LoliSauce's infos.

Thanks man.  I'll try and remember more from the videos and stuff I've read/heard on them.

Akiha now has those delayed stationary fireball things (don't remember which style, but prolly F-Akiha).  She sets them out either right in front of her or right above her, very close range.

F-Len has some sort of new ice attack.  They're rotating triangular disks that hover for a minute and either move downward (if used in the air) or forward (if used on the ground).  She also has a very slow moving fireball(iceball? lol) that's low to the ground.  It reminds me of Dan's gimped fireballs, lol, but it prolly isn't actually that close range.  F-Len's normals look way too similar to normal MBAC Len's normals though.  =\

Also, for general news:

are bunker cancels still in the game?

bara's are no more according to random japan blogs

I'm not sure how valid this is though, as no source was provided to back it up.

Updated my post with HeartNana's blog and LoliSauce's new infos.
Edit: updated some new infos to Full Moon and Half Moon Style.

Byakko - Depends on what type of moon is used her her I think. Full moon doesnt seem very rushdown-y at all. Half moon seems like shes best at mid range when her moves have larger range than yours, and in crescent moon, her moves lost the huge huge range, so shes prolly best at rushdown there.

I haven't really been watching this post recently, but from what I quickly glance....is Full, Half, and Crescent Moon a type of fighting mode similar to PC and AC modes back in the other MB games?

No. It's a whole cursing lot different.

Slash and Bust?

[Kadoya Akira]

Hm.... now I'm even more curious about Reeze =]
2 months seems to be too much time to wait x.x

... or are there more videos that weren't posted yet?

[Sh1k1]

Slash and Bust?

No, it's a little more akin to the ISMs present in Street Fighter Alpha 3. Each presents their own mechanics advantages and disadvantages.

[c-nero 5[c]]

It's also similar to CVS2 "grooves", however I don't think a style selection has ever so drastically altered the movelist and playing style of characters as MBAA's is going to. It's going to be interesting, I just hope they don't fuck up too much with reinventing the wheel. Even if they do and the game ends up with only crescent moon being remotely decent, it would still be playable. If, on the other hand the game is unbalanced in favour of Full moon, I will be very angry

Hopefully it's balanced okay.

[Xkun01]

I was trying to avoid tht but..oh well.Street fighter alpha 3 style changes seem about right.

[ಠ_ಠ Dizzynecro]

 - there's an ex-guard (like tension guard in GG): blocking at last moment
 - ex guard seems to lower blockstun a ton

If it is blocking at last moment and it lowers blockstun its much more comparable to GG's instant block which does both of those. Faultless defence is the tension block it increases blockstun but pushes the enemy back more.
White Len changes seem nice. I agree that the styles seem more like a/v/x-isms from alpha than grooves from cvs2 considering how they change you specials and stuff.

[Sh1k1]

Exactly -- the grooves in CvS2 didn't really change anything except how you performed your super attacks, as far as I remember. In SFA3, although most remained unchanged, each ISM offered a set of one or two added/removed special moves from each character's moveset.

[Legendary Blue Shirt]

Let me refresh your memory.

The grooves allowed you to use the mechanics from the various games the characters came from.  Here's a chart (Ignore the customizable EX groove) -


As for SFA3 isms, one of them lets you play like SF2 (arguably underpowered because you cannot air guard), and another one is V-ism (Ridiculous combos when Custom Combo is active)

Guys I got the latest vid from karp straight from the MBAA machine in Hong Kong go watch it now

No reverse beats.

[BurstOfAnger]

I've seen the recent vids. It's as if Wara lost his 6C cos I see no one using it.
