Tekken Thread: All things Tekken related

Damn, after seeing that game play my excitement for the game just nose dived.
It looks exactly like Tekken 6 & Tag 2. Only difference I see is new hit sparks. Holy shit, incredible :?



I'm reading that some characters have new 2P costumes, but jesus christ dude why not change their defaults into something else? Why keep the same god damned costumes you've had on these characters since Tekken 4?
 
After watching more gameplay via Avoiding the Puddle, I'm feeling a little better about the game.


I recommend watching. They break down a ton of in depth shit you wont find anywhere else and are pretty damn funny.

Tekken 7 will maybe look better, but MKX will ultimately be the better game overall.

Uhm "maybe"?

Tekken 7 is going to be created on " Unreal Engine 4 "

Don't get me wrong im more of a MK fan than Tekken though im also a big Tekken fan, BUT when Tekken 7 is going to be shown for the first time this month and im talking gameplay, it will be the best looking fighting game ever created BY FAR.

If you don't believe me just wait untill mid Oktober when they are going to show you the test location gameplay video.

It will be graphical fidelity with so much detail that as of right now we can't imagine yet, because it hasn't been shown in any other fighting game yet.

MKX on the other hand does look stunning too, I'm not sure if you guys noticed but it seems everytime they show of something new the graphics get better (water pools on the walk way in the cove)

EDIT: WTF BBBLP?!?! WHen was this aired? I thought they said like Mid/End Oktober????? gonna check it out right away

"EARLY GAMEPLAY DETAILS / CHANGES

Rage Arts are comparable to super moves from SF4 & SC5, activating slow motion during gameplay and dramatic camera angles.

New vibrant hit sparks / particle effects. Slow-motion effect during K.O. hit.

Bound is still in the game, but functions differently. Some attacks will "knock the opponent out of the air" and they will fall into a bound state. Some attacks also put opponent in bound state from standing (like in TR). However, many moves that used to bound don't anymore (or at least, currently don't in this build of the game). Ground and wall breaks will still cause bound as well.

Free attack after K.O is enabled (like in Tekken 6)! There are no round replays in this build of the game - it isn't known whether or not they'll be added in the future.

The in-game camera is slightly further back from characters compared to TTT2.

All characters have brand new character models from the ground up. However, current character models do not show lighting or have finished skin shaders & texture quality.

Catalina has simple strings (to appeal to beginners) by repeatedly pressing one button (similar to Hwoarang's 3,3,3 or 4,4,4,4 strings).

There are no Invincible moves like in Tekken Revolution.

Some new 2P costumes, such as Kazuya's long jacket from TTT1 intro.

New kick option from the ground - right kick (d+4) into back roll.

There is no tech roll. Several players tried and it didn't happen."

Just looked at the tekken 7 game play and it reminds me of MK Ecks with the graphics and character fight intros and such...

New character: Claudio.

And new info:

http://www.fightersgeneration.com/screens/tekken7-claudio.htm

"RAGE ARTS

Once your health falls below a certain value, you enter into rage mode and your attack power increases. During that time, you have access to special powerful moves known as rage arts.

The command varies per character, so check the command list.
- When the life bar indicates, you have access to rage arts
- You can use them in combos
- Go for the comeback victory!

POWER CRUSH

Even if you are hit during your attack, you will continue to attack until the end of the move. It is powerful as you can use it as often as you like, to absorb as many attacks as you like, but you will still take the damage from the opponent's move, so watch your life bar carefully.

In the move list on page 3, the red moves are rage arts, the blue moves are power crush. It also mentions that power crush moves will only absorb the opponent's high and mid moves."

There appears to be location tests of the new characters atm. Follow the link above to read about it.

I don't get Tekkens new characters designs. They all look shit. The majority look out of place. They remind me of early 90's WWE characters like IRS, a taxman dressed appropriately to fight. I can't suspend my disbelief when you have someone dressed like that going into a fight.

All been said I hope Alisa isn't in T7.

She is. She was one of the playable characters at the location test.

Ah well. I will just ignore her. I was a fool to think they would remove the bizarre sex appeal delight she brings to the unholy masses.

I wonder if there is erotic fan fiction involving her. I know there will be and I bet its hilarious.
 
Yeah, new characters in Tekken are trash.
Last good one was Dragunov.

The rest are just pandering animu shitheads.

Not Miguel.
Miguel is cooler than Frieza
 
The new female player will probably be just like Hwoarang, she can be used by beginners but only to a certain degree, I main Baek & Hwoarang, Hwoarang can be used in a way to create some very VERY difficult juggles, also Hwoarang is one of the most difficult characters to get good with, and I mean l33t lol

So saying that it can easily be that she can also be used in very pro ways, and not just for beginners, I dont believe Namco is goingt o throw in a character thats "JUST" only for beginners.

Im happy that atleast Feng and Hwoarang made it in, really hoping for Baek and Lei than i've got my mains.

I would be kinda disappointed if Lei and Baek wouldnt come back :') tbh
 
Was looking forward to picking up tekken with T7, but almost all the tekken top players dislike it so far. So I'll pass on this one.
 
Almost all the top Tekken players called it bad.

Didn't Aris call it bad??

Made me laugh dude. Even if they did dislike it, I would imagine it's because they are trying to make it more accessible, you know like it was when people used to buy Tekken games in the 90's?

It endangers them as players, it ruins their mystique and the game stops been their little secret that only they can be good at.

I don't see the problem really. There will still be a level most will never reach while bringing in more players.
 
I will see what the final product is before I pass judgment on it.

But the trailer was pretty damn bad, now their making Heihachi the hero and they retconned the Devil Gene yet again. Didn't Kazuya make a pact with the devil? Now it's just that he inherited it from his mother. Hopefully there will be a gameplay trailer in the near future.

Good that I made you laugh? lol, I thought he. I remember reading a comment saying Aris said it was "No Bueno", I could be wrong though because I didn't watch the stream to confirm that he disliked it or not. Sorry, Jesus :laugh:

That makes a shit ton of sense though and i didn't think about it that way, at all. So you think the meta will change for the good? If so then I'll invest time.
