@ 2:35, Dragunov's ff+3 now has a slow-mo effect when it connects.

I'm guessing this is just an added visual flourish like the camera cuts we saw in T6/TTT2 for some moves (like Feng's shoulder or Paul's death fist).

Edit: actually, I think this may be a thing with all homing moves. Really cool if so.
Yea, looks intentional, maybe a counter hit indicator on some moves.

Believes Dragon Quest is a franchise managed by Sony
Do we know what kind of hardware they are using to make the game? What arcade boards if any?

It looks pretty deliberate to me. A framerate drop would appear choppy, nothing like that.

No. Framerate is choppy if game is synced to speed with frame skip otherwise it appears in slow motion.

On that ruins stage game clearly goes slomo during regular gameplay.

There are a lot of slowdowns/framerate issues in this location test, but the instance they're talking about is intentional, the camera is still moving during the frozen animation(zooming in a bit), it's not a technical issue.

That is obviously intentional.

I mean the game has obvious slowdown in regular gameplay in this early version.
 
The animation quality is very good. The ground damage effects are still too much. I like that the environment damage is permanent though.

Oh man Tekken 7!

Not sure how I feel about those slow motion counter hits or those super finishers or whatever they're called. Hope they don't draw too much inspiration from Revolution, I didn't like that one, but I ain't judging anything until I can actually play it myself. Besides it looks like it might be a while until release so who knows what'll change by then. Also it's hard to judge the graphics from the low quality off-screen footage and it looks like the game is still filled with T6/TTT2 assets at the moment. At least the character renders are.
Also Claudio looks too much like a ridiculous anime character and Catalina isn't doing anything for me either.

Anyway, can't wait to play it myself! Or at least see more of it for now. :p
Hopefully we'll get a release date soonish for console
and PC!

Surprised to read it framedrops to 30fps, even if it's in beta state. You'd think framerate would be one of the first things they lock down in a fighter. Now I'm wondering if we'll get yet another sub-HD Tekken game on consoles. :p

Looks okay, I can't really judge visuals based on these gifs. :p But at first glance I don't see much of an upgrade.
 
lmao, game isn't done yet graphically.

well, i believe it when i see it. I'm soured by all these modern "test versions" that turn out to be 99% complete anyways.

I wouldn't expect a big jump in graphics after this releases in 6 months to arcades. They might redo the old character portrait images for the character select but thats it :D

AND i'm sour that TAG2 wasn't released for Vita too :(

No point optimizing unfinished assets, this isn't a console beta, the game still have a long way to go. They're doing it this early during development because they're changing a lot of stuff/adding new mechanics and they want to test fans reactions before committing.

What's Claudio nationality?

Based on his name I'm expecting either Italian or Portuguese. Please be portuguese.

I think he's Italian. There's a poster of him with The Colosseum in the background.

In any case, he ought to be speaking his native tongue, right? Any reports from the location test regarding that? Or is it just too noisy?

Backdash definitely looks super nerfed but maybe it's a different command now? Harada said they wanted it to be easier.

ffs, we had a huge empire, second only to the british. Why are portuguese never represented?

It disturbs me how not even in Soulcalibur we're represented and we have one of the deadliest bojutsu/sword fighting styles...

Doubt there's even a portuguese fighter in any fighting games...

yep, but we dont really have a weaponless fighting style, maybe if its a portuguese character with some random martial art, not like its a first in tekken

anyway, where my boy Jin at, maybe next loketest

Claudio sounds italian.

So they ported the entire T6 engine to UE or what is the deal here?

Nevertheless, it looks like T6/TTT2 with more particle effects, I was expecting something a little more... new.

Still waiting on the reboot of the franchise. I liked what they did with 4 even if the combat engine was strange :S
