everything f2p


pay 10 for combos?

 

[ascii42]

It will be characters as well. Im totally fine with that long as there is an arcade mode. Dont want to play always online.

Guess the question is, how much per character? Tekken certainly has a ton of them.

 

[Loris146]

Wait what ?

 

[TheSeks]

So, for those of us that don't follow Tekken: What is this exactly? TTT2 or T6 or?

 

[Lizzie McGuire]

Tekken F2P.

 

[akaoni]

I'm not overly familiar with Tekken stages but they didn't look like Tag 2, seemed like Tekken 6.

 

[Dahbomb]

Let's wait to see what model they have in mind before we jump to conclusions. Worst come we can always go back to TTT2. My guess is that this is just the F2P version of TTT2.

 

[LiveFromKyoto]

Tekken rocks. In.

 

[Zukuu]

I always wondered how you can do a Free To Play Fighting game, so you can attract more players to the genre. Kinda like MOBAs are free to play.

 

[Pooya]

no more announcements in the video for those who watched?

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

I'm in. Saw gameplay looks cool.

No they're Tag 2 stages

 

[The_Monk]

Europe love too fellow GAFfer?

 

[raven777]

I am more surprised at the release date than F2P

 

[Stone Ocean]

Well that was completely the fuck outta nowhere. I'm pleased.

 

[Silky]

Eww.

DOA Ultimate is doing it like... you get 4 characters to use free of charge and can play online with other people and etc, but you have to pay for story mode (14.99~) and other characters (3.99 each). You can play on all modes except story too.

The commercial was so awkward on TV tbh for Tekken Revolution, lol.

 

[Drencrom]

This could be pretty cool, hopefully it isn't pay2win.

 

[Khezu]

I didn't see any tagging, but it was only like 6 seconds of gameplay, so w/e.

 

[Ron K]

Yeah those are definitely Tag 2 stages. Moonlit Wilderness (T5 stage) and the Cathedral (T6 stage I think, but different)

 

[ethomaz]

Sounds like a great ideia

Don't think that approach works. That's nothing more than a demo imo. It could be done like LOL, but I dunno how well you could implement a rotation system on a console.

I actually thought about this for quite some time, and came up with a few approaches that could be viable.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Definitely interested in this.

Why do I have a 360 stick... Does anyone have good recommendations for a 360 to PS3 controller converter?

 

[GrayFoxPL]

Wonder if the new special smudges are only for the trailer or in game. Looks to have different filter too. Didn't see any taggin.

 

[zeopower6]

Well, the difference is that you're able to play in all the modes and play online with people with the F2P version, lol. At least, I don't remember many fighting game demos allowing online multiplayer... D:

A demo doesn't give you full online modes. In DoA5's F2P case I believe you can set any character as a training dummy, something like that.

If you main one of the free characters you basically don't have to pay a single cent.

 

[TheSeks]

That's what they're planning on doing. Rotating characters on sale for less than they're normally on sale for and a preview, IIRC.

I think it could work. There are quite a few players to stick to one character over the course of the game. Giving them the option to download a base game then download that specific character might be more interesting to them than paying out $60 for the entire thing.

 

[jett]

Nice, although I wonder how much content will be free.

 

[StuBurns]

Buy Hwoarang and you're done.

Awesome.

I believe they will make free character this weekend kind of events so people can try it before buying by those events. IMO it works nice.

 

[kick51]

DOA already beat them to it .

true but now we have a good f2p fighter

[RK9039]

There doesn't seem to be any tagging going on, but the stages are definitely from Tag 2.

Whatever this is, I want it.

 

[NotLiquid]

Tekken Evolution |OT| Free To Punch

 

[Majmun]

Oh, another free game.

Spoiler

PS+ has spoiled me

 

[Miles Quaritch]

A F2P fighter? Could be interesting, I assume they'll make money selling costumes, stages, etc?

You get the full game outside of story mode + 4 characters to use those modes with. You can unlock costumes, play their combo trials, tutorial, tag mode, arcade battle, time attack, online mode, training, record matches and upload to youtube, etc. . .

true but now we have a good f2p fighter

Game didn't look like Tekken 5 to me.

 

[legacyzero]

Free to play certainly is getting a lot of steam now if even the Fighting Genre is getting in on it.

 

[Izick]

Worldwide?

 

[TomcatTheLion]

I wonder if this was the "unannounced fighting game" that Harada was supposed to present at E3?

Probably not. Interested in seeing more of it though.

 

[Horseress]

Tekken Evolution |OT| Free To Punch

LOL that's a great title indeed

 

[0xCA2]

Awesome!

 

[raven777]

I think this is it.

I doubt they will announce tekken 7 or TXSF at E3

 

[SolarPowered]

I r confused.

 

[Vazra]

true but now we have a good f2p fighter

I enjoyed DOA5 a whole lot more than TTT2 so there is that.

 

[Izick]

I think this is it.

I doubt they will announce tekken 7 or TXSF at E3

I'm holding out hope for a new Soul Claibur.

THE SOUL STILL BURNS

 

[Alienous]

I suppose Free To Play is much closer to the arcade model than a $60/£40 game.

 

[Zonic]

Wow, so soon? Guess this was the E3 fighting game surprise. Might as well try this out & see if I can get into the series.

Question remains how much content you'll get for free, especially after hearing about DoA5U Core Fighter.

 

[Zukuu]

I mean for a free to play fighting game.
Limiting the base to 4 characters = demo mode imo. That's just not how fighting games work.
