I'm thinking about getting this game, how complicated is Johnny?

Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R |OT| Ready to rock on STEAM (with netcode!)
Particularly proud of this, took quite a few tries, what with I-no flying around and wrecking my shit every single time, but....
Now you've just got to do it on arcade mode Order Sol!

Here is a pretty good breakdown of the character it isn't based of the +R version but the concept is the same.

Hahahahahaha! Maybe if I had a mound of cocaine and could actually play well.
Isnt dash cancelling with him pretty much required as well? I found that to be way too difficult for me to get down consistently.

Can someone give me an idea on how the game should be played? This is coming from someone who likes rushdown characters. I can even deal with the Ryu style characters too (If there is any).

Extremely aggressively. Just keep hitting until your controller breaks, then attack the system it's mounted on.

Today I had some good matches with a 3 bar connection. Tops 6 frames of lag.

Anyone want to add me to get some games in? My steam id is simsiriphanh. Probably will be able to play at random times on the weekend and on friday. Want to give my Justass a whirl and see how I can do since she is slow as fuck in this version.
No. Probably for the best with how poor the netcode is.

I actually didn't mind Arcade I-NO in GGXX.
But now? Fucking SNK boss syndrome all up ins.
Even with Millia (one of my better characters) and the difficulty set to beginner, it still took me 3 tries to beat I-NO. The projectiles aren't that big a deal, but when she gets to the last 1/5th health she starts reading all the inputs.
I probably could have saved a few headaches if I remembered to use QCF+D.
Faust on normal? 9+...actually I just gave up. This was after sleeping through the first 9 opponents.

In ACP they disabled insta-kills for her which is fair, but in +R they upped the bullshit through the ceiling.
May went from probably one of the top 5 easiest in vanilla accent core, to being middle-of-the-road, or maybe slightly harder than average in +R. She no longer has all day to confirm off of her j.H, and has to rely a bit more on her tighter charge links, and some height/character-specific air-confirms with her steerable air DP move. Besides combos, her neutral game and pressure is pretty easy to figure out, but her mixup can take some creativity to open people up at high level.
I-No really isn't all that hard, tbh. You just need to know your character's best moves and have patience.
Oh, I wasn't aware of that.
Pretty much what I've noticed. If it's lagged in the character select no matter of "wait for the introduction to finish" will fix it, unlike Blazblue/modern Arc fighters.

I forgot how hard it is to actually play I-No in this game. I can hit HCL FRC but the TK into 6FRC6 is what gets me. I can get it sometimes but I'm nowhere near consistent with it.
Oh well, Order Sol is always there for me. I love how weighty his run and jump feel. Landing combos and rushing down feel so right. Getting into Baiken more since I played her casually in AC and she's also fun but it's a pain trying to hit j.H xx taitami on lightweights in the corner after an airdash.

Brazilian, or just trying to buy with a favourable exchange rate? Looking at the store page, I'm assuming it's just a basic Steam key, with the disclaimer on the left that translates to, "This content uses Steamworks and requires the Steam application for activation, download and installation". Going by that, and this thread in the GGXXACPRSE forum, I can't imagine the nuvvem version would be region-locked.
EDIT: Also, I just checked, and can confirm that the basic Steam store version has a Portuguese option right in the language setting. Seems unlikely that there'd be a alt. Brazilian version floating around.
Reload had some pretty broken stuff in it. +R is polished to the max, and should feel deeper in every way. More characters, more viable applications of meter, more sensible damage, etc.... I highly recommend it if you liked Reload.
Thanks! Online any good? Easy to get games?
I haven't played for a long time, so I'd have to spend a while in SP. I just hope MP isn't dead by the time I get decent.
I'm going to say that the online MP doesn't seem great. Haven't played it as much as the Xbox/PS3 versions, but I think it's the same netcode, which has only been stable for me with people who live within ~500km of here (Eastern Canada). Overall, it falls somewhere in between MK9 and SFIV's netcode IMO, if you've played both of those, but with even fewer features.
Judging by those patch-notes though, the devs are still tweaking things, so maybe it'll be godlike by the time you log on.
(Probably won't be, unless a fan-made netplay mod springs up.)

Have you guys checked out the latest patch? After turning off the V-Sync and the borders coupled with whatever online tweaking they have done, this is feeling much better online. 2 bar connections are actually decent.
Turning the V-sync off turned off whatever was causing the input lag. But tearing. I forced V-sync on Nvidia and haven't noticed any input lag, but it seems tearing still happens randomly but less often than without it. :/
Ran up to like 640 in Survival with Justice and started to notice tearing. Ugh.

Heads up: Steam cloud has been recently patch in.

GG-Gaf, I have two questions regarding the Xbox 360 version off GGAC+R. As I booted up the game recently after a long time, two things came to my attention.
1) the sound quality is very, very bad. Music and effects sound very muffled. It's pretty bad. Is this a known issue? Is it better on PS3 and PC? Might get another version then.
2) I believe the PS2 version of Accent Core Plus (not R), offered older versions of the stages to be selected. Can you unlock those in the XBLA version? Are they maybe included in the Steam port of the game? Just looking for the most complete version

All versions of GGAC+R had to compress everything because of the dumb space limitations of XBLA, so thanks Microsoft for the low quality music and sound effects.
PC is a better version because they fixed some freeze issues in some classic stages.

You can unlock them playing the story mode, I-no boss stage you need to defeat her in arcade mode.
