Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- announced for Arcade
- Thread starter raven777
- Start date
If you happen to have an interest how they pulled the art in Xrd off, this presentation is worth a look.
I'm having a hard time arguing with this.

throw breaks (called throw clash) are in! it says it happens when both players try to grab at the same time
burst overdrives commands are the same except with the D button, not all ODs will have this extra mode
uses 50% tension and full burst
seems like using blitz shield (when connects) increases your tension and burst gauge a bit
regarding the blitz attack, seems like if you hold HS, your BS is upgraded to this version and when you let go of HS the attack will happen, costs 25% tension
jack-o' seems like a trap character ala testament

I think the only exception I saw is that Elphelt's super, which is already done with the dust button, command is reversed.
Uh....
...
?
Edit: I like that she's always wearing the mask in battle. At least, for the state she's in in that clip.

Hometown version of Elphelt. God damn.
So is she a setup/trap character?
Definitely smells like a trap.

Dang! Xrd continues to amaze me. I really like her character design, it's so unique. Her move animations are just, stunning! (Love that standing idle animation.) If she plays anything like Testament, that'll be cool, I always enjoy playing as him.
Can't wait to try her out. I hope we don't have to wait too long for this version's console release.

Still waiting on any footage of Johnny.

All the Jack-O' footage was from one person. Maybe the others need to get home before they can upload.

First: I still can't believe this is 3D.
Second: I still can't believe this is Unreal 3...or even Unreal at all.

I wonder if this means it'll be DLC for Xrd on consoles. Wary of buying the game off European PSN if it could be made obsolete quite soon.
Well, the greatest takeaway from all the informations they've given about the artstyle is that it's all old technology, what it really needed to get there was a strong art direction and effort.

so there's a new system for dust forward follow up, you can do it even from mid screen now, it will act like CH fafnir, and it's normal cancellable so someone said you can do 5HS 5HS 5HS for example
the new blitz attack will make the opponent into a new crumpling state?
acho will do a tourney on sunday, old characters+ johnny and jack-o' only if i'm not mistaken, hopefully will have a stream

Really? Michael Jackson? Explains a bit.
Cool design, will try out when it hits my area. Only location test I got was Dissidia.
Edit: We need to see Jack-o on her back-o.

It seems there are some balance changes after all, but we don't have details. I've only seen something about sword setups for Ramlethal and that Leo's damage output has been nerfed.
This guy has translated a lot of stuff about Johnny. He seems super good at the moment.

Also, a lot of screens from the loketest:

I seriously can't tell if that's hand-drawn or polygonal, and I love being able to say that.
It really looks amazing, even more now that the graphics got an update.
Also characters now have battle damage, like scratches and dirt on the clothes.
Some stuff from that Famitsu article, translated by Dustloop users:
Last page of the Famitsu article has an interview with Daisuke and he drops some info bits.
- Johnny was the most requested character, so they decided to add him.
- Jack-O' is imaged after a toy box. It's cute and has all sorts of cool stuff popping out from it. Jack-O' is a character series has yet to see.
- Elphelt brought elements from FPS-games. Jack-O' brings elements from RTS-games.
- Updates on the graphics:
Shaders on the characters have been changed.
Rim light has been added (a light to ensure the character's borderlines stand out)
Contrast and colors on a character changes in different stages.
"Point light source" has also been added (Gunflame shines in a dark stage and when it hits the opponent they also start to shine from the flames)
- Would like to hold as many loketests as possible. Listening to people's opinion and adjusting just once doesn't necessarily lead to a good result.
- REVELATOR's story starts after the events of SIGN's story mode. "Merciless Apocalypse" finally makes its move...
- REVELATOR's story is supposed to settle everything else than the fight between "That Man"

Is Jack-O supposed to be 'trolling'? I'm not liking how she's so cheerful :V
Uh...what do mean by that last part? Is it intended to resolve the That Man stuff or will it just lead into the That Man stuff and simply finish up the story for Xrd?

So 2 more characters? Wonder if the 4th one will be one of the metal masked groups or
Raven!
Also make Pot's Cr. S like XX AC+R damnit!
Oh so the 3rd part of Xrd will finish off the whole That Man hunt?
Seems to be the idea.
I dont like dlc but hey, the game BOMBED.
Given how insane it looks, it is the most beautifully crafted game i have ever seen.
Gotta help them.
Ideally , arcade would be jack o and Johnny and one boss (maybe masked tentacle guy from pachinko), console would have those plus one character ( dizzy )
Hopefully two dlc characters. Even tho they mentioned not wanting to make the old cast dlc.
As i said, Ky also HAS to be changed given the gigantic spoiler at the end of SIGN. Afraid he might be a new version entirely if they dont update him.
Also, so far, all designs and characters have been close (not identical) to the pachinko designs.
Dizzy and Johnny were there, as well as Jam and Bridget. So i d say they are the two next candidates.
Only missing robit ky baiken and testament and it d be amazing. For part 3 .

Really? Is he implied in the story mode or something? Zappa would definitely influence me to jump in.

It didn't do well on PS4/PS3?! THat's a shame, wonder why not many PS4 owners got it =/ See this is why you need an 'easy input' mode for all fighting games now.
Consoles are dead in Japan and no one outside of Japan (maybe even in Japan?) really cares about anime fighters. Yea you can link Persona sales but that game sold to Persona fans, not fighting game fans.
At least that's my take on it. MKX sold very well so it's not like PS4 people aren't buying fighting games.
I can't believe there's still no Johnny footage. the fuck??
Problem with webm is that Safari doesn't care for them.

The poor sales are the reason I wonder if this is going to be a DLC update and not a new disc / SKU. Can't see how Arc can keep doing that while their market shrinks.

All that talk about engine tweaks pretty much confirms even more than that the game won't be DLC for Sign owners.
Which seems like they added for Revelator, actually.
