UNREAL BLACK THINGS / Re: So apparently that game French Bread were making...

« on: February 19, 2012, 01:46:01 PM »

EDIT: It's chipping on my patience to know what GRD Vorpal actually is, so anyone with good moonspeak skills, please lend a hand. Taken from the info site:

Code: [Select]

GRD（グラインドゲージ）
　あまり似たのは見ないバランスゲージ。作中設定ではGrind（ぐらいんど…研ぎ澄ます、みたいな意味）から、
　場における両者の気の満ち方、みたいなニュアンスで捉えて欲しい。
　このGRDを元に、一定間隔ごとに「どちらが優勢かの判断」が下され、
　優勢な方は「Vopal（う゛ぉーぱる　…鋭いみたいな意味だと思いねぇ）」という状態になり
　攻撃力・防御力等でメリットが発生する。流れに乗って攻めろ。
The most I can decipher from that (from Google Translate) is that it occurs at set intervals, about every 14-15 seconds, and 7 times in a round (from videos). Each time it happens, it gives an attack and defense boost to one of the players, depending on how advantageous or disadvantageous they are at the moment. As far as I can tell, the first two times are granted to the advantageous player, the rest of the times are for the disadvantageous player. Please clarify?

The japanese doesn't really explain much. Says that there's this GRD "Grind Gauge". At set intervals its judged who is winning on GRD gauge, and the leader gets "Vorpal" status effect, which increases "attack / defense / etc". "Rise on the momentum and attack".

Thanks for the links and explanation, that clarified it for me plenty!

I edited the list into the OP in case anyone else searching wanders here (and it was a good exercise in learning the character names )

Melty Blood Auditorium / List of Character Short Names

« on: January 20, 2012, 03:50:35 PM »

Hi, I'm new to Melty. Having no previous Melty Blood experience, the character short names are confusing me. 

Eg. this tier list:

S Nero Ryougi
A+ Arc Satsuki Wara Seifuku
A Sion Warc Akiha VAkiha Nanaya Kohaku HisuKoha Mech Len Kouma Ries Roa PCiel
B VSion Shiki Ciel Miyako Aoko WLen Hime
C NecoArc NecoArcChaos KohaMech Necomech

I figured Ryougi is Ryougi Shiki, and from youtube's videos I've gathered that Red Arcueid is WArc. But who is "Arc", as there's a huge number of characters with "Arc" in their name. Also, does this list not have Archetype: Earth, or is her short name something really strange?

If someone knows a link where these are listed it'd be much appreciated, as I couldn't find one after extensive googling and forum searching. Beyond that, if someone wants to put together such a list, it would be much appreciated!

Edit:

I've copied the linked answer here, in case it helps someone searching for the same info.

Akiha's Tea Room / Re: Introductory Thread (Take off your shoes, please)

Hi, I'm new, hope we get along well

I've never played melty blood, but always wanted to, and now that there's a PC version I'm looking to try it. Currently interested in playing Archetype: Earth or Ryougi Shiki. Red Arcueid looks interesting as well, I'll have to see how their playstyle meshes with me.

I started fighting games with the SF4 series, but have dabbled in many fighters since then, like MvC3, BlazBlue, AH3 and KoF.
