New Bang feels fantastic. Being able to jD out of any confirm makes things so much easier. With that and the new web nail you really have to try not to get 4 seals now.
The 5A-2B gatling also gave him a ton of new goofy combo paths. I've been practicing double side switch combos in the corner.

I should try that on the monitor I'm currently using and see what happens. Didn't have it when CP came out. But CP Extend and Hotline Miami 1 on PS4 are the only games that this happens with and I see the border showing up in preview videos, so I doubt that the monitor is the reason why.
Just noticed something I else need to try- The PS4 has a Display Area setting under the Sound and Screen options menu. This setting allows you to manually-scale the picture for certain applications. Maybe this is why I'm getting that border. Would be awesome if this works!
It was indeed the PS4's internal scaler that was making the border appear. Now the game is full-screen, although it looks slightly blurrier this way. I guess this isn't a true 1080P game, which makes sense...BB has always been 720P, IIRC.
Tried online and nobody wanted to play with me. I guess my connection was scaring them off. Managed to play one match against a Japanese player. It was OK. I had much better luck with the Japanese Calamity Trigger on the 360 back in 2009 in comparison. But I have a way to make my connection better and will try again that way.

I'm guessing this is all from the JP version. Aksys' is still a few months away?
Wonder how bad Tsubaki's nerf beating is this time.

Yeah, JP. US version comes out 6/30, I think. If I remember correctly from Goro's and Dora's tierlists, Tsubaki was pretty firmly in the middle. I think the only characters unanimously bottom on both were Terumi and Amane.

Ah, That's unfortunate...
I'll fight for both of us.
You can thank head mod of Fighting Gaf, Shouta, for that.

I have a question for anyone who played Hazama in CP or is going to in CPEX. How important is it to know the 2A/5A > 5C > 3C > 214D~66B > 66 5A etc. string? I've always been interested and I can do pretty much everything else of his consistently, but that combo, especially online, has always eluded me. Could I still play him at a decent level without having that down, or is it considered an integral thing to know?
Pretty important if you want the best meterless mid-screen damage. It's awkwardly easy to do offline. Just do the dash input quickly before you think you need to and press 5A, it's as if he'll just magically slide. Don't go by look, go by feel.
Like Uraizen said, pretty important. Also make sure you have all of his drive movements down in neutral. Too many new Hazama players forget that pressing D a second time before it fully extends gives him a lot more options that's hard for the opponent to predict.

Yeah, honestly what made me want to play with him was screwing around with his drive positioning. Looked like a lot of fun. I'll fool around with it a bit more and see if it becomes second nature. Is the timing drastically different for big/small characters or is it more or less cast consistent?
If he doesn't work out I guess I'll just fool around with Nu for my full-screen character. I miss CP1 Nu already.

I asked Mori personally at EVO. He laughed and said it wasn't likely. He's too small.
Mori's very nice, though. I said make him like Yoda and he laughed.
I don't remember having to readjust on different sized characters. I haven't fought the whole cast with Hazama back in BBCP, but all the stuff seemed universal from what I remember.
Nah, it's not character specific, I've never had to adjust my timing.
Izayoi's like A, Hakumen's not good.
Edit: Dora thinks Hakumen is good though while some other players don't.. I haven't been following how Hakumen is in this version, so I don't know.
I'm dropping Litchi for Izayoi. I think I'm okay with Litchi's changes, but Izayoi has always seemed really fun to me, so I figure now is a good time to try learning her.

Ask him about Nine for me this year.
Then link him to a gameplay video of Dormammu and say "yeah, she should play like this". K?
I am and I cried tears of joy when I saw an invite system.
If the Hakuman ain't good I ain't buyin'.
This bandwagon was only built for one. Everybody else, get off.

Good to hear. How about Azrael?
For people asking about character strength, look at his:

I did. He just grinned.
Nine's a sure bet.
God damn it, Silva.
Kokonoe too though
Izayoi is better now? Awwww shit. Chances are I'll main someone new though. That always happens to me with each entry. CT was Noel, CS was Hazama, CSEX was Relius, CP was Izayoi.
I don't really care that Izayoi is better now. She was already my sub in vanilla, and I've been considering trying her out as a main for quite a while. Some of Litchi's changes, while fair, make her seem less fun to play to me, so now seemed like a good time to actually try out Izayoi as a main.

Pfft, imitators to the Yayoi crown. The Izayoi is just a tool, and a tool is nothing without spirit.
No BB at CEO. Guess I'm not going.
Do Aksys just go out of their way to poorly time BB releases or what?
I don't expect anyone to get that reference.

ArcSys are the cocks here. It takes them too god damned long to release an update. I have no idea what happened to the release dates, though. I want to know what happened to the localization times, too.
CT was 1 week apart, CS was a month, CP was... it doesn't even matter

I think it has a lot to do with Aksys outsourcing their localizations.
Actually it has a lot to do with ArcSys keeping arcade operators happy and pushing that model out way ahead of console business :v

What happened to Mu?
They can piss them off a little to please their western fans. What are they going to do about it?
