TEKKEN 7 |OT| How I killed your mother

The online and matchmaking is too fucked up for me to enjoy this. I don't mind getting beat, but I dislike going into a beginner tournament where it's all beginners and one guy -- still listed as a beginner, somehow, even though it shows he's won a ton of tournaments -- just perfects everyone. That's not fun and you don't get any better as a player.

I just fought a guy that had won multiple tournaments ... and it showed he's had a single win. Yep, somehow he's able to win all these tournaments by beating a single person. No wonder the matching is screwed.

I don't think the tournaments count towards ranking, so the person you're talking about has probably never played a ranked match. A flaw of the tournament matching I guess.

no need to repeat 3-0ing noobs, i've got bigger fish to fry. Someone furiously sending me invites and proceeding to start shit talking amuses the hell out of me.

It's basic etiquette to run someone back if you win and they ask for it.

As for calling people noobs? Grow up.

If y'all are looking for a good track to replace the garbage tracks in G.Corp Helipad(Night) then look no further than Karma from Tekken 6.

Playing in New Zealand on PS4 and after three days I still haven't been able to get a single online match of any kind. Is there some kind of issue I'm not aware of? Is it my region? Is just nobody playing? Seems really weird.

It's a widespread issue on PS4. Tournaments work for some people, everything else is still borked on PS4.

I have been getting my ass handed to me online on PC. Maybe I should switch back from Hwoarang to my old main Eddie.

Well damn, that sucks

What the FUCK is up with story mode Chapter 14?

I can reliably bait Devil Kazuya's super in his second stage, then punish, but it seems the third stage he just slaps me around until I die. Do I bait the super or not? How fucking long do the expect me to hold out?
I thought this was a cleverly designed fight when I got this far, now I think it's just bullshit.

EDIT: I guess I'm actually supposed to fight back, contrary to the last stage...

I just finished the story mode and if
if they indeed kill heihachi for good then I am going to be really sad about it. after telling his story, it seems he was the only one that is not evil. wtf

I know exactly how you feeI. It truly feels like I lost because I got outplayed, not because of any bullshit.
I'm so relaxed too, it's really bizarre. In SFV, MKX and injustice 2 all games I am very used to and quite (imo) good ish at... I'm stressin, nervous sweating lol I don't feel overly happy or relaxed when I play despite liking those games a lot.

Tekken?

No sweating, no stressing I feel happy. Got my ass whooped and idgaf, I am learning and it was fun.

The one thing I am struggling with is the movement, blocking, juggle combos and general weight of each fighter. But I'll, get there.

Game feels like a rubiks cube

Just because he had reasons doesn't make him not a horrible guy, it just made his motives a bit more understandable.

Man, this story is absolutely crazy in the sense that a old Japanese man, a blonde woman who speaks English, and some anime man from France can speak three entirely different languages and follow each other exactly.

Like, when in the world would Heihachi have the time to learn other languages?

But I digress; haven't tried online to see if it got fixed yet, but I'm still making it through story mode and some Treasure Battle. Katarina is too good, but I'm starting to check out the other characters. Holy fuck, Master Raven seems pretty cool

Man, what did they do to poor Asuka's face in this one. Looks wider or something, and more plasticky, almost like a DoA character. All that stress over her dad's dojo must be getting to her.

Also, none of the women except for
Nina and Kazumi
have major involvement in the plot. Asuka is a Kazama and yet
she's relegated again to half-assed catfight plots
. You can do better than this, Harada.

Tekken 6 had a great soundtrack. I also liked Urban Warzone and Temple Grounds.

I like a lot of tracks from this franchise, but my fave OST are probably T1, T4 and T6.

Love the PS4 version for Jukebox feature.
 
Tekken is more system based. You don't have resources that carry over. You get three rounds. You get largely the same case with similar tools between them. Movement becomes a defensive aspect that you have to learn. There's a lot of room to feel like you can make it.

That being said, its harder when you go up the ranks since Tekken is fairly legacy based, so those with more time have a better chance of winning. But since you won't meet those people for a while, there isn't much stress. Everyone is on the same page right now for newbies. It's kinda nice that way tbh
 
ughh the hori fight commander is horrible for this game. At least in practice mode. Resetting position and changing the commands requires you to press the touchpad plus a button, but this controller doesnt have a touchpad button. WHY THE FUCKING TOUCHPAD HARADA?! ughhh

But out of the 3. he seems to be the only one that is normal. also from my understanding Jin is still a good guy and planning to kill him self or get killed by someone when he kill his father.

Still the dude was from Tekken 1. killing him is really stupid. here is hope he didn't die from the volcano . or comes back as a devil him self or something. the drama needs to continue. we didn't ask for this :/

The ending of this game is the exact same as Tekken 1 and the upcoming Jin v Kazuya plot they've done twice before, so I wouldn't worry about Heihachi not coming back.

I'm honestly not super into the customization stuff in this game. None of the models or textures look anywhere near as detailed as the typical costumes and most of the models just look stretched as hell applied to the characters, especially with the way all the t-shirts flare out at the bottom. I get that customizable stuff is always gonna look a little less polished than a hand-crafted model, but it's still kind of a bummer. Both the women and men have impossibly huge cartoony chests that trying to stretch a normal looking t-shirt or jacket or whatever over is just impossible to make look right.

Loving the game, but god damn treasure mode is infuriating at times. You can get a hot streak going and then you just get destroyed by fucking Panda of all things.

We got any DLC character predictions?

I'm predicting 5 characters (including Devil girl whatever her name is), so the 4 that I reckon we're getting are:

- Mokujin (with the ability to deck him out to look like Combot)
- Ryu (it's going to happen, Akuma is amazing in this game and fits so well in the canon, Ryu has got to show up)
- Lei Chaolan (because of course)
- KENNY OMEGA

Apparently that sucks for you if you are playing some fellow Gaffers, they will give you the finger and run with the W.
Not all that shocking though.
Interweb cool guy/hard ass and all.
