GUILTY GEAR Xrd Rev 2 is released today on PC. Are you playing a top tier?
Why would I play a dead game?
>trying to shill me into buying this game again
I bought the first one and the online died in a week. Why the fuck would I pay for this again?
>>378676971
>PC.
Nice try. Better off buying paperweights. I'll stick to console.
>>378677079
>>378677107
>>378677182
why does /v/ hate gg now? did capcom brainwash everyone.
>>378677641
Because 99% of GG posters are just dick riders
>>378677641
Just people trying to get some easy (You)s at the start of the thread.
>>378676971
Dead game for casuals, no thanks.
>>378676971
Venom is a goooooood boy
>>378676971
>Teresa
Why should we care about a tier list created by a shitty Jam player? Give me one by Machaboo or Nage instead.
>>378677641
Goober Gay is a shit game, /v/ never liked it.
>>378677935
Teresa is a great Jam player. But he sure complains a lot.
>>378676971
>Zato fucking shit tier
Sounds like bullshit desu.
>>378678142
There's no way I'll ever believe a tier list that puts Zato in bottom tier. Chipp in top 3 is debatable, but Zato isn't Potemkin tier.
>>378678351
It's Jam's tier list. Looks like Teresa have easy time against Zato that's why he's there.
>>378676971
Lol this tier list made by an aspie.
>>378678351
>Chipp in top 3 is debatable
Not really. Not anymore anyways. All the top tiers been getting nerfed while Chipp keeps staying the same. The dude was absolutely top 5 for like all of Xrd's life and everyone around him gets their kneecaps busted. There are a lot of things in Teresa's list that are fucking batshit insane, but that's not one of them.
Remember when throws prorate?
*pilebunkers into u're thread*
owo
>>378678736
remember when Jam had damage without 100% tension?
>>378677641
Tekken came out and GG is battling the perception that it's an insanely hard game that might not be worth trying to get into anymore because everyone online is already godlike, which unfortunately for it is true
>>378678693
I'd argue Zato, Sin, and Johnny as top 3
Faust and Sol rounding out top 5 with maybe Millia replacing Sol.
Chipp's biggest flaw is still getting killed by sneezing on him.
>>378679008
And good fucking riddance
>>378678351
>Chipp is debatable
Impossible. Chipp main strength's are things you need to sit down and learn, he's one of the most execution heavy characters I've ever played in my life. And he's by far the most enjoyable to watch. If they nerf him the GG community will have a fucking riot.
>>378676971
How viable are the bottom tiers and is Baiken really that bad?
>>378679178
But that's saying you can even hit him in the first place. Chipp has some of the best mobility in the game and his own damage is nothing to scoff at, plus his oki game is absolutely retarded. Sure, he's a character where most likely you totally wreck shit or completely get raped, but outside of his health he has no downsides and no obvious bad matchups.
>>378679430
Hmmm...Meme answer
>tfw playing through the tutorial with a PS4 controller
>feeling too pressured with everything
>I wanted to main Baiken or Elphelt
How fucked am I?
>>378679565
Tiers literally do not matter in GG.
What did they change about venom that makes him so good now?
Haven't played since vanilla
>>378679693
Looks daijobu
>>378679802
>tiers do not matter in a fighting game
Assuming this isn't bait, can you explain why? I don't know much about GG.
>>378679727
>do a chunk of tutorials, practice a bit, then fuck around in lobbies
>rinse repeat
Learning and losing is part of the fun anon. Soon, you'll be laughing with the big boys.
>>378677641
Piss off, goober.
>>378679863
the biggest changes were BRO and 6P
they also made his combos a lot easier
anyone who calls him top tier is massively overrating him though, he doesn't do enough damage to be good and his chip setups while good will also give your opponent a full tension bar
>>378680076
Every character in GG has crazy bullshit that can win games if you can get your ball rolling even if you are playing a shitty matchup.
On top of that, the balance is really good and top tiers aren't THAT much stronger than bottom tiers.
Tiers basically only matter if you're playing at top tournament level, and even then you see bottom tier characters placing well every now and then in stacked tournaments
>>378676971
Ruined Jack-O's toolset and playstyle.
Rev 2 is dead to me.
>>378680556
Jack-O mains are faggots anyways.
>>378676971
Balls? In my A tier? It's less likely than he thinks in my opinion.
>>378679595
None of that matters when one combo takes 2/3 of his health. Even the best Chipp players can't avoid damage in every match. Yes, he has a ton of tools, great damage, good oki, etc, but he's outclassed by Zato, Sin, Johnny, and arguably more.
>>378676971
I see you Miku.
Any newfags want to play together Rev2 on PC?
Is Kum worth purchasing? What are the chances that she would be MY CHARACTER despite being a newcomer to the series and not really loving how anyone else I've tried yet plays? I don't want to have to spend $10 Canadian dollars on top of the $25 for the Rev 2 update.
For reference I really liked playing Testament in AC.
>>378679863
His 2H isn't shit now (first hit is a low, thank god for more mix-up options)
>>378680076
As far as GG goes, and I suppose fighting games in generals, tier lists made by top players are meant as measurement for other top players. It's like if everyone judged GG when they haven't been able to understand their character's core stuff (much how like /v/ hates how hard it is learn fighting games and gives an unfair conclusion based on their limited knowledge and would rather learn fucking LoL).
Arc has especially made sure everyone's attacks, universal mechanics, and whatnot always have 2 answers for 1 situation so that you're never stuck in a loop of mix-ups or stuck blocking for 20 seconds. Only if you have the knowledge that is.Personally, I think they've been too strict with the balance of the game and should loosen up a little.
>>378681015
I'm shit, and will continue to be shit since I never keep playing. Hopefully that changes this time.
Post ID?
I've never played a Guilty Gear game before, but Jam looks super cute and from what I understand she's a rushdown character which I really like.
How hard is she to learn?
Weird, why did they decide to release REV2 early? I mean its cool and all, but why?
>>378676971
>Millia on C
Losing haircopter was that bad?
>>378681043
She is a fat shoto character
>>378681015
I'd probably shit on everyone in this thread
>that fucking shamisen in the background during baiken's IK
fuck
>>378681043
>Kum has ball oki
>has an overhead and a fake overhead that goes low
>oh yea, that overhead can be special cancelled into a low
Wtf, he's doesn't have Millia mix-up, but that stuff is dirty
>>378681510
Wtf is a shoto in GG? Does she play like a SF shoto? If so, why, and how does that even play out in GG?
>>378680772
Okay I guess Akuma isn't actually the best character in ST because he dies in 3 pokes.
>>378681735
Alright that sounds pretty retarded, so I'll check her out. Thanks
So what is the difference between buying REVELATOR and then the REV 2 upgrade package versus buying the full game of REV 2 on PS4? Does the full game of REV 2 include all the colors and characters?
>>378681207
/ragiewagie/
>>378681523
You probably would since we just got it today.
>>378681803
shoto is fireballs n uppercuts. Like sol
>>378676971
Damn nip and their abbreviation
So RV is for Raven and RA is for Ram Valentine right?
I would be surprised if it was the other way around
From that tier list, thing that stand out the most is how Millia, Zato, and Sol can be anything below B when they were always consistently A or S before.
>>378681627
It's neat, they should add some flavor to other characters' IK themes too
>>378681386
They changed how pin works and it's much harder for her to get knockdowns off of air combos.
>>378681334
Release before Tekken, maybe?
>>378681334
They didnt? It was June 1st JST.
>>378681294
The hard part about her is getting in and staying there because her range is shit but her pressure is strong. She's ok execution wise. She also has amazing corner carry I this iteration
You have ten seconds
To describe each characters playstyle as shitty as possible
Any other /literallyneverplayedbefore/ tiers on Rev2 EU Steam?
>>378681903
ST and GG are so different that the comparison is silly. ST doesn't have the type of mobility or defensive options that GG does. That being said, I'm not super familiar with the meta of ST and would need to look at that stuff to see why Akuma is top tier and all that shit.
something is really off in Rev 2. Its more laggier . Rev 1 was solid and no stuttery.
>>378681803
You can charge and alter the trajectory of the hadouken mid flight with 4 and 6.
Dp and tatsu have extra motions and charge stances that add other properties and animations to the move.
>>378682987
when you press a button you might deal damage
>>378682987

whens zappa?
>>378682987
Unga
>>378682987
Best character has a super saiyan form
>>378683091
I think it was like this at the start of Sign and Rev1 too but it got patched
>>378682987
Pot - you try to get in but you won't, fuck you
Johnny - throw out random unga +50 normals and mist cancel until something hits and convert to 50%
Faust - who needs skills when you got rng

>>378677641
Just pcbros salty that no one plays fightes on pcs
>>378685238
They were raped by capcom.
>>378685284
Unknown, we could get info around Evo or maybe E3. Several characters have been teased through the story mode such as Anji.
>>378685238
Just another crossboarder shitting up a vidya thread
>>378676971
Nah, Im playing Slayer and may try to learn one either Baiken or Answer.
>>378685563
>>378685238
You know someone needs to relax their anus when they use a meme when the regular word would be more applicable.
Anyone want to play Guilty Gear on steam? Day 1 Baiken here, let's make a lobby?
How long is this gonna be active on PC?
>>378685965
Make a lobby I'll join
>>378686026
1 month at best
>>378686026
Like 3 to 4 weeks, then every one worth a grain of salt goes back to consoles because no nips play pc
Just like every fighter that is not skull girls or sfv
>>378686026
i have never not seen a lobby up on regular revelator
>>378679078
You mean injustice 2 came out.
Is that Leo Whitefang dude a viable character?
If I get into GG, its only gonna be because of that guy.
>>378686656
Yeah he's good if you like really fast rushdown and mixups he's your guy
>>378686656
He's a pubstomper. You'll win against shitters easily but struggle with better players.
>>378676971
I bought rev1 on sale right before rev2 came out and was playing the demo. First GG and so far I am liking Chipp, Faust, Jam, and Sin. I also kind of like Baiken, Answer, and Bedman and am trying to pick who I want to play.
>>378686892
>Liking Chipp
Mi negro. You'll learn to love the speed.
>>378686892
Bedman is tough to learn due to his unorthodox airdashes. Have fun with whoever you pick though.
>>378686026
until rev3 if you actually care about the game
1 week if you're a memer buying it to be epic
>>378687054
>>378687197
In the demo I played Baiken and Chipp alot but I have trouble doing the 623 style inputs on my fightstick so I can't do B's 8623S, idk what it is called and I think that is the input (still learning the numpad shit and other terms). Also is it normal for there to be no one online, haven't been able to find an open lobby even on launch day, or does everyone just do ranked (im on ps4)
>>378679178
>>378680772
lmao dude just hit him lmao just block lmao don't nerf my retarded character who's worst matchup is 6-4 in his favor
Any turtle-like playstyle characters?
Baiken is that low?
Well fuck.
Which new characters does this DLC add? Zappa? Testament? RoboKy?
This new lobby system is retarded. These big ass lobbies with little arcade cabinets... The matches take SO MUCH LONGER to load and there is no rematch option.
>>378689023
Fuck tiers just play
>still no lobbies
Dead game.
>>378690079
Host one, I'll join it.
>>378689473
The big world lobbies were always like that from what I can remember. Player rooms were always preferable when it came to grinding matches.
>>378689473
the same old player lobbies are still there if you don't like the 64man lobbies
ROOM UP IF YOU ARE IN NORTH AMERICA
d8no
>>378689473
I've just been playing in regular lobbies desu.
>>378677641
They permanently lost by business when they thought it was ok to charge people for dlc they were giving away for free at launch. I can't believe I bought all those shit BB and XX ports just to have the "privileged" of being gouged on Xrd. Fuck em.
>>378688835
What the fuck are you even talking about?

Okay, well, when Chipp wins EVO, I'll concede that he's top tier.He won't, Machaboo is winning again this year.

Well, there goes my interest
>>378696093
This is GG. Every character is good. This just says which character you'll have to work more with.
>>378694783
He wouldn't miss EVOafter winning last year, right?
Picking up the upgrade after playing sign a lot and not bothering with the other DLC until now. How do I axl
What the fuck did they do to Baiken?
>>378696129
So, there is hope after all. As long as there is hope, i won't have to go back to street fighter V
Do people play in the world lobbies at all on PC? Room disconnects are obnoxious.
>>378692668
Machaboo's showing some weakspots now, so Im still willing to bet Samitto or Omito have a chance to snipe that title
I love Elphelt!
>>378696245
I've been playing him for a couple of days.
6K when you think they want to jump
2P/5P are great for spacing, 5P can be low profiled by a lot of characters dash, so watch out for that.
Mostly what you want to do is try to make them jump by using 2P/5P/Rensen then cash in when they do jump with 6K, jK CH, etc into 2S > sj > jHS > jD > Bomber
If they get close, Axl's DP is good because it will send them fullscreen and make them have to work hard to get back in, 2K is good to since it leads into 2D > Rensen, which can be RC'd into damage.
His command throw is also really good when you conditioned them with meaties. Shadow strike is also really good as a way to throw people off, on counter hit you can 6K > 2S > sj > jHS > jD > Bomber
>>378676971
>Xrd Sign
>Xrd Revelator
Xrd Revelator 2
No, fuck off. I'm done, I'm out. I barely thought getting Revelator was worth it, I'm not shelling out this much cash for 2 fucking characters. I don't care if the game is """cheaper"""" if you already have Relevator, its still a fucking rip off. Wow, $30 for 2 characters instead of the usual $60?! How generous!
Not that it fucking matters anyway, I've played a grand total of two (2) games online in Revelator on PS4. The online was dead back then, it sure as fuck isn't going to magically come back alive now. I've genuinely had more luck playing fighting games 70% of you never of even heard of like Chaos Code when it comes to playing games so Guilty Gear can fucking fall over and die for all I care.
>>378696701
It's shaping up to be a good EVO. I'd be surprised if any non Jap got top 8 this year.
>>378696598
Then turn them off fucktard
I have a Sony Playstation 4 and a Personal Computer.
I'm trash at all games, but I'm especially trash at fighting games. I'm very proud of this.
Should I buy the console version or the PC version?
>>378697082
Buy a PS4 so that it will finally have some games
>>378697082
Go with what you prefer, though PS4 will likely have a more active community

>>378698726
imma take a quick shower, but if the lobby is up i'll be down to play
>>378698931
>>378699035
Alright give me 5mins and i'll make one
>>378697082
Japs and other experienced people play on console. Id like to think sfv refugees and total newbies and secondaries play on steam so theres very good chance youre gonna be playing on the same level as everyone else provided pubstompers arent around.
Who's the best for a new player out of Ky, Elphelt, Raven, or May?
>>378699456
All of them but Ky is the most intuitive while Raven is the strongest and most braindead gameplay wise
>>378699456
Ky, though the others aren't awful choices. May is a charge input character, so if you're used to qcf inputs, it takes a bit to get used to.
>>378699456
doing may setups is hard I think, elp you might get some bad habits, ky is pretty well rounded and raven is easy mode.
Steam Rev2 NA
ID: clhk
>>378677641
Because vanilla ggxrd died within a week on the pc. You faggots praise the game yet never play it regularly
>>378699626
You're still doing qcf and qcb on May anyways.
>>378699873
Vanilla died on pc because rev was out on consoles. There wasnt any point. Now that the pc and console gap is moving closer, and asw abolished totally new games for patches, theres more incentive now.
>>378700058
So now Rev2less can play with Rev2 players?
>>378680556
What'd they do?
Is it even worth it to get Rev2 on PC? Do people primarily play on PC?
>>378700586
>>378699420
The skill level on pc is lower so there's more push for totally new players to get it on steam
>>378699886
but she gets most of her damage off charge dolphins

You're right, I should've been clearer.

Is Faust a good beginner character? Completely new to the series and, more or less, to fighting games as a whole, and he's the one I found most interesting when I first watched any footage.
Also, any general advice for a beginner?

Faust is ok but he is harder to combo with. You could try with the character you like first.
>>378707495

>>>378678693
>Dude was absolutely top 5
>Has bad matchups against arguably the 3 most played characters in the cast
>the other 2 are still highly played
This is why he isn't top tier. His matchups against the mid tiers are great, he fucks up characters like Axl/Ino/Venom etc, but then you get to the ones like Johnny, Sin, Kum, Slayer, Leo and arguably Sol, he has no way to safely play neutral. Slayer will force his way into you eventually and then he just needs the one guess and you're dead. Leo will try and do the same except be a bit morecrazy, Kum mixes you up one and you die. Sol doesn't let you safejump him for free unless you're absolutely perfect with your timing (I think Sol matchup might be chipp adv now in rev2 due to 5k nerfs but who knows yet). Sin spews damage, 6P is the god and he can beat you at every range. I'd write more but it's 4:30am and I feel like death.
