but knowing ArcSystem, they'll probably release something like BBCP...2 ...EX with all the additional DLC characters for free and new content

^just arcades for now on Japan
release date for platform release has yet to be announced as far as I know EDIT: also, jourdal uploaded the stream from yesterday god damn Arakune's still so powerful. Is it just me or does he curse people more easily now? not really a fan of the new sound effects, but I guess it'll grow on me once I've played it I kinda like the new pacing of the game too, it's so much faster than it was before

Visually speaking, CP looks quite neat, and that's with low res video, so the sprites are definitely working well in that regard. I still have a lot of troubles with the art cut and the UI in general, which looks... less cutting edge, and more retro/amateurish.
What actually annoyed me to no end was the SFX and sound tracks. Really, the SFX for the moves and characters being hit are blunt, disruptive and sounds like some old SFX from a beat'em up or a rythm game. It really doesn't bode too well. Meanwhile, most soundtracks remixes are... quite bland: they have a very slow intro, and we get extremely discreet instruments and pace not flowing too well, which is even worse as the game is much faster in term of pace. Voice acting in general is a bit of a hit or miss: I guess it will take time to get used with a "calmer" ragna, although trollzama sounds a bit goofy/in his own world than really trolling compared to CS era. The narrator is... well, better pronunciation, but the tone is like as if we were in a bingo/fair or something: I can't exactly take her seriously with the chara name or the "WIN!". It sounds as superficial and creepy as League of Legends narrator. In term of presentation, I guess it is really half half for me, more on the negative side... Gameplay wise, I'm quite surprised that the burst/overdrive point can regenerate during the same round, so I'm curious if it will just give more advantage for combo char to the detriment of heavy hitters. Meanwhile, the flow of the game looks a tad too rushy imho, but I guess there is plenty of time to make balance left and right: sure, CT and CS required too much input for long ass combo, but here, it often looks like a bunch of skirmishes everywhere. Oh, and Arakune's curse active after only 3 hits is scary as hell.

Also with regards to music, I think the Six Heroes theme is pretty awesome. It plays in matches that feature any combination of Hakumen, Valk, Platinum and Hazama (except mirror matches) and it's just really epic. Blood Pain (mirror match theme) also actually sounds good this time, unlike CT/CS where it was extremely painful to listen to. |

The only remix track I don't like so far is Taokaka's. The violin intro...
I havn't heard all of them but I definitely like the new intro for a few of the songs. P.S. I see that they redrew the Astral Finish for Relius vs Tsubaki.

Azrael's astral is of the most manliest fucking things I've seen in this series so far. Not even Tager or Bang's astrals reach that level of awesomeness.
Now he just needs a kanji printed on his back and then he'd be the perfect expy of Akuma.

Amane's AF= Dimitri's Midnight Bliss Pedo version. BTW, what the hell happened to Hakumen? Looked like he was going to show her his "kinky" side. Quote:
EDIT: Weird, smiles aren't showing up at all. |

How the heck could people listen to the BGM with all those SFX going on?
On the gameplay part, I think it's a huge improvement. No one love to watch long ass air combo in tournament (lolz Litchi).
