The Guilty Gear general: Getting Wildly Assaulted in the Keyhole

[ZioSerpe]

I haven't been able to find a PC match since DBFZ launched...

[misterBee]

RIP 😢

 

I'd play with you if you weren't in Asia.  Too bad I made this place after I moved to the US...

[JHDK]

Hmmm...

 

Guilty Gear Rev 2 on PSN is only $17.99...

 

It's a steal, yet a tough sell, since I've not played since Vanilla 3.

Spent part of the 4th of July doing the most patriotic thing: 

 

Playing Rev 2 online against a Canadian. 🎆 🇺🇸 🎆

So you're ready to challenge me in GG? =D

Oh yeah. I have a OHK combo with May that is sub-optimal and I only hit around 70% of the time. I'm signing up for Rev 2 at EVO. 😎

 

I do like May though. In general I think with this game I think I just need to try more chars. I feel like the first couple of characters that appealed to me visually don't mesh with me mechanically so some experimentation is warranted.

[misterBee]

You know where to find me. 😎

[GetTheTables]

Ayup.

 

Just for you I checked to see if BB was part of the PSN sale going on. 😉

 

Still want to try to stick with UNIEL and Cross Tag but @OldManRage finally dusted off his fight stick and wanted to anime it up with Rev 2. And any anime is good anime.

Thanks for posting this. I am tentatively excited for Strive. A lot of the changes have me side eyeing it, but at the same time it still looks really fun and GG-like so Im still down. I NEED them to show Jam tho. 

[misterBee]

I'm hype for the new GG.  Mixing things up is good.

[BornWinner]

 

[misterBee]

Giovanna lookin tight.

 

[Jurassic]

I guess this means May won't make a return in this game.

May is already in the game.

[Jurassic]

Sorry I meant Jam.

[GetTheTables]

I'm keeping an eye on Strive. If the rollback pans out well I may be in.

 

Characters continue to look awesome regardless.

[misterBee]

Exhibition matches were pretty cool.

 

Hype train for this game continues. 🚅

[BornWinner]

The release date with Dragon Install(?) tease and story.

Characters are looking great as usual I'll have to check for a vod on twitch because I only caught the end of it. But from what I saw it looked  slower than before but maybe I'm trippin

 

 

Edit just watched the second match disregard the slower comment. This game is gorgeous.

This new chick seems ok-ish  but still sticking to Millia as my main unless they do what needs to be done and add I-No. 

 

PS : the trailer music was absolutely awful ( vocals not instrumental )

I don't see why Jam would be out. This new character doesn't have any of her character mechanics. 

[HD-Man]

Was bout to ask if Strive was some sort of soft reboot but the trailer answered my question. Seems like the last GG game, or atleast the last one dealing with this particular storyline 

[GetTheTables]

Considering they already have a character pass lined up and it is #1 of X, I can't imagine popular chars won't pop back up sooner or later (especially the waifus [this includes Johnny]).

 

Just watched the player exhibition. Latest build is looking good. Actually getting excited for a game for the first time in forever.

Giovanna looks like a rushdown character, so I don't think Jam will be in the main roster at least.

I am more hyped for the game now, were there any news about the online lobbies?

[Darc_Requiem]

Vanessa: "Hey Galford?"

Galford: "Yeah?"

Vanessa: "I'll watch Poppy for you."

Galford: "Um...okay."

later that night

Galford: "Has anyone seen Vanessa? She was watching Poppy for me."

SNK Characters: "Nope, but there is a cool ArcSys trailer dropping. Why don't you watch it while you wait."

Galford: "Yeah...I guess that'll kill some time."

 

Galford: "Goddammit Vanessa!" 😡

[Mr.Cipher]

She realy does look like a darker Vanessa.

She seems to be entirely kick based tho, maybe they know each other 👀

Definitly going to try her out.

 

I hope this Thread will be hella active once the game drops.

I'll be on PC, play me to learn and enjoy the game, cause I won't have a clue what I'm doing.

The usual stuff.

[Dragonfave723]

Well, that was quick.  

 

Btw, this is my first post here at a Megashock forum. 👋

That's the part of the disguise. "If I use kicks, they'll never recognize me!" 😉

Looking forward to Strive.  GG is a game I've wanted to get into, but being a PC player it's tough finding matches, esp around my level (low).

 

If anyone is in the EU region and is up for some Xrd on PC, let me know.

Don't plan to play GG before Strive drops, but I could try to get some Discords for EU for you.

Usually they're helpfull and happy about every new soul.

Where are you located in  EU?

 

Playing with you might be possible.

I'm in the UK, I have reasonable internet. 60 down, 10 up.

I can go for a bit now, test the connection if you want?

I will install the game now.  What's you're Steam name?  

 

Also, not sure if you know but if you edit your profile there are fields there for you to put your Steam/PSN/XBL so people can find you easier.

My steam name is Laughing Man, but I think there are quite a few people with that name.  I'll be easy to find in lobby though, the only one there.  Is the UK lobby ok for you?

 

I'll add it to my profile, thanks.

I'll wait for you in UK lobby #1.

@LaughingmanThe connection seemed pretty decent!

It seemed pretty stable and playable to me.  I had been practicing a bit with Ram and forgot to change, hence the random Ky...

 

If you're up for some more games, let us know.

For anyone interested in brushing up on the story, it looks like ASWs YT channel is uploading the story mode chapters from Xrd -SIGN-. Considering all you do is just watch the damn things in game you aren't missing anything by catching up on it that way. If they carry it all the way through to the end of Xrd, would be a good way to catch up before Strive.

They're releasing a manga re-telling the entire Guilty Gear series as well.  New chapter every day I think.

[GetTheTables]

Oh nice. Quality permitting I think that would be kinda preferable. I don't know much about GG's story outside of the really basic stuff pre-Xrd and TBH I remember very little of Xrd story even though I know I sat through all those damn cutscenes.

[BornWinner]

That sequence of Sol  tagging in Ky with the release date trailer? It is part of some mode. However it is PS5 exclusive.

 

 

No mention of Steam since this was taken from PSN but it is for sure not available for PS4.

[YourFavGrandpa]

The Tag mode is probably PS5 exclusive, with a potential mod coming for PC after launch. 

I really want to support Strive and buy it before launch, but since they announced a season pass and a $85 deluxe edition before state tax here, If I buy it; I'll buy it only once for whichever platform I end up buying it for (PS4/PC). I'm also considering buying the regular edition on PC and just buying the characters piecemeal if ASW does that this time. Granblue made me very wary about buying ASW games that aren't considered "mainstream" (Guilty Gear and DBFZ are probably the two main examples of that I can think of). Also am curious as to how long the PC playerbase will last once the game comes out, also because of Granblue.

[Vhozite]

What all do we plan on getting this on? I doubt anyone here cares about the tag mode but it makes me wonder if there is any other PS5 exclusive stuff

[misterBee]

I'll end up buying it on console and PC like usual.

 

I'd just stick to PC if I could but I always seem to have at least 1 friend who  is a console pleb and I ultimately end up getting the game on console just to play with them a handful of times. 🙃
