Just got this in the mail today. I haven't played it much but I feel myself gravitating towards Taokaka. I'll be giving story mode a whirl or two to get a feel for more characters before I start battling it up online. See you all soon.
Tell me more about this "Raped him". Just went for like 2/15 with Kai_san.
...
Also tell me more about this "blocked".
Well, for one thing, by raped him, I got hit around twice and killed him in the third round. The second round was damned close but my special didnt hit for some reason when I know it should have and I thought it did and took my hand off the stick and was killed.
For Taokaka I like to use the 236 + Weak Attack and keep hitting for around 6 hits and then use the drive directly at the enemy afterwords, which can lead into a possible air combo if they try to jump away.
Using Drive to get around a lot is also good. I mean really good. Sometimes its good to fool your enemy by using the drive right over em to the other side of the field and then right into em from behind. If you get a fairly good combo going and the enemy is a fairly grounded person use the blades that come from the ground thingy. A nice little barrier. Also great for if the enemy is cornered. Maybe use the 7 hit slicey and then the little ground blades and go into a drive attack. Fairly decent damage.
Im by no means great but I can get some excellent combos in.
Oh and...you use Taokaka? Because thats the only way I can help you here. And even then maybe not all that much. But Im no good with anyone else really heh. And if on the 360 we can play sometime. Of course I may have just gotten lucky but....man. It felt good to beat the Inferno Driver...or...whatever its called spamming asshole. Just felt good. (That 30,000 experience also helped a little :P)
Edit: also, I bought the colors (I couldnt help it...Im sorry) and I love them so far. Or...well, Ive only looked at Taokakas and Ragnas (because hes my training bitch). But goddamn do I love the ones for Taokaka. Theres one where she wears full black and has black hair but her face is pure white instead of the black. Looks awesome.

I still have no concept of who to main, I was liking Ragna but not as much now. Nu is pretty cool but idk. I like Carl and Rachel quite a bit also even tho i pretty much suck with carl.
I like all the characters because I can see myself having fun using them all really. I have fun using em in story mode and then reachinh Nu and getting destroyed for an hour and feel like destroying the game and then getting pissed at every little thing the character I just had so much fun using up until then does.

I'm working hard at being able to do some combos - but man I am terrible at them. Even if I get one down - when I'm playing a real match I freak out and miss just about all opportunities to use them~ Practice, practice.
Also, you might want to cancel 236A (do it 2 times) into 5D straight away for a garuanteed hit and drive loop if you managed to hit them with 236A when they're airbourne.

Yeah in a real match it can be a wreck but just takes some practice. Like I said Im not amazing but I can pull things off. Just try to keep your cool and think of how you can get to your enemy in a fight.
You on the 360 or PS3?

I liked the colors thank you very much. *Sniff*
And ok. Im practicing now so I can give it a go. Id love to learn some new things. Its not often I can get a nasty ass combo going.
I LOVE though, LOVE, when I can get a combo going that goes from the ground, and I beat him all the way to the top of the air and hit the top and drop back down. That is an excellent feeling but its so rare.
Oh and does 5 mean standing still? Not hitting a direction?

Yes, yes, I've watched the dvd. It is the drive loop I must learn.

I would try to learn them, but I'm focused on Nu now. :P
God I hate Nu. Id want to kill you if you used her correctly and beat me brutally. (Ive lost so much on the comp Nu in the last fight so damn unfairly that I dont even wanna go there.)
And ok, thanksies then. Ill give em a check. (Thats right. THANKSIES!)

I want to take Noel on as my sub but she's such a popular character(and I already main Jin who is also a popular character), so I think I'll wait a few weeks. I still have to get Jin down anyway. And I think I'll take on Rachel when I can actually zone a little better.
I didn't know they had the gold versions. Might have to pick it up for Tao: Super Mode.
I like how they felt compelled to show the colours of tao's panties.

Oh and sorry about my joining a room problems, guys. I just had to fiddle around with my router settings a bit. I was able to join another guy who invited me so hopefully I'll be able to get some games in next time.

Well, boss Nu is not the same as player Nu if that makes you feel any better,
And taokaka can do her own thing against Nu if you know to do it, so eh.

I know...I know, that's why I'm not too worried about it, just waiting.
And ppphhh...I still haven't seen anyone use Carl. I mean I've seen 5 Iron Tagers already, a few Litchis, and plenty of the other characters shattered about...but not one Carl.
So I spent the time learning one of the combos for Rachel from dustloop and all night I never got to pull it off once and ended up just doing impromptu combos instead. :?
Also ggs firekiun. Thanks for not playing your main and giving me a sporting chance. Though watching you jump into my astral finish when you were nowhere close to it was probably the funniest moment in our games.

Really, it takes practice so don't feel too bad. I mean I've been playing fighting games for a while and a lot of the harder combos are still difficult for me to pull off.
Also, don't worry too much about the really lengthy combos. Damage starts to become negligible at a certain point anyway and it just becomes about setting your opponent up to fall the way you want.

Oi Love to fight ya. Maybe some day.
On another note, I got the Drive Loop down after practicing it for I dont know how long now. Very nice indeed. Now that I know it I need to figure out how to make some nasty combos with it.
Oh oh. And as for Nu. PSOJENHFUIWEBNFUEBHFGIY. Still hate her. Loading....Loading....Loading....Loading....Fuck Nu.
Honestly though. Im just mad at her computer bitchy cheapness. Not you using her. Dont worry. And wow was Ragnas ending fucked. Jesus. (Arcade that is)

Just learn her basics on pressuring and zoning and some BnBs and you should do pretty well most of the time.
I need to record some of the matches from tonight, had some pretty nice ones I think
I'm also starting to think I should try learning someone other than Hakumen, I feel pretty mediocre with him and like his combos are too not worth it when I have to save up magatama for better stuff, and my normal attacks can do good damage anyway
also Kiunch, where are you located on this planet?
I'm starting to get better with litchi, no where near as good as my tao but damn boobie lady is hella fun. Sorry for not joining the lobby tonight guys I had friends over having a good time in vs mode. Maybe tommarow I'll be able to bring my a game.

You can get over huge damage with 6 magatama.
You should just really stop mugening all the time. :P
His distortion drives are normally useless when you can use them for his specials instead.

For Jin players, does anyone know how to land the D part to his jb>jc>jump>jb>jc>jd aerial combo. I can get to the second jump(though inconsistently) but at the end I'm always far too under them for the D to hit.

His wave slash can be comboed from so many things. Now that is of course up to you if you want to use it, but on low health chars or run aways, getting in a 4K damage special isn't such a bad idea. 41236 C into special or even 6A into it is a good way to get a burst of damage. Counter and mugen is a waste unless your opponent is acting stupid.

Stupid character color question but... I know when in the character select screen and you scroll over the character you want you can press A, B, X, or Y for a color(I'm 360 D-pad btw), but is there any other colors other then those 4? Because I thought there was... And if there is, I don't know how to get them...
Oh, and V-13 and Jin are totally unfair characters to use...

But.. but.. I just really like hearing him say
MUGEN
Beastly damage for 5 stars.
Also, I would totally recommend subbing Nu.
I might be a fanboy though. I dunno. But she's fun.
No Nu, because I don't like making other people not have fun by constantly beating their asses. Or something.
I guess that goes for every other character though. Constantly having your ass beat is probably not fun no matter which character.
Seriously, Nu is not as OP or easy as everybody thinks she is. Play her for awhile online and see what I mean.
