Of course Mitsurugi's katana is impervious to lightsabers.

I wish they'd release Soul Calibur on PSN or Xbox Live with net play, and be done with it.

How ya doing, buddy?

In spite of the game's design being influenced by total anime faggotry, my copy of the PS3 LE has been preordered, and I am ready to see how they have managed to ruin the franchise this time around.

My only purpose for playing online is to kill anyone that uses the anime characters.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Can someone tell me why they had to change all of the commands in Soul Calibur III. Naturally, they maintained the horrible command lists for SCIV.

But aside from that, SCIV isn't a fuck-up like II and III. I actually like what they've done with Mitsurugi...some insane shit is coming out of Mist and Relic stance.

I'd want to play online, but it looks like everyone bought the awful 360 version.

The problem is that it isn't a couple of bucks. Isn't Namco charging $10 for a single dumbass paint job in Ace Combat 6. It's ok---I haven't bought any of those jokes. Of course they'll release DLC that will allow you to take the bikini off the girls in create-an-anime-faggot mode. 60 dolla.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I'll have to get the Soul Calibur soundtrack---can't resist. The SCIV soundtrack is garbage, except for a couple of tracks like Halcyon Harbor.

Wow. The online mode is practically worthless---even when I was the host, there were still 1-2 second hiccups.

It's funny how the only character I lost to was Taki, because the network simply cannot keep up with such short-frame attacks. It's also sad when you start blocking Kilik's low 8WR2/8+A sweep one second in advance and you still get hit. And create-a-faggot mode needs to be removed online completely. Can someone tell me why everyone creates a fat nigger with dreadlocks. It's ok. Just ringed you out with Mitsurugi.

FELIPE NO

If you can't win online using Taki, and lose to the likes of Astaroth, you're terrible.

I can GI just fine online, but I'll admit that it really only happens against short frame attacks. Soul Calibur is largely an offensive game, and even more so online---since the lag is so fucking awful, you have to practically "predict" what your opponent is going to do, and buffer data into the network before the other person can. Quicker characters such as Taki and Maxi clearly have the advantage here.

If I'm fighting against the larger characters, I always close the gap by using a strong attack that moves the character a considerable distance forward. I would also imagine that the attacks could be either sidestepped or ducked...

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Online mode is killing me. I am feeling lag even when I'm doing something as simple as 8WR. Throws my entire game off. It's sad when I can't even block or GI Siegfried's strings that end in a low attack. Seems like the frame-intensive stuff like throw break and GI/P need a 2 to 3 second lead time.

In terms of character customization, I hate how you have to put on all kinds of ugly, mismatched gear in order to get the stats you want.

And all those CAS suck compared to my eagle head Mitsurugi.

I've got half of the honors unlocked, but none of them were intentional. I hope to unlock everything in CaS, in the hopes that there is something that will let me make accurate versions of past characters---why does Namco introduce faggotry like Yun-Kimchi, when they might as well bring Hwang (and Li Long) back.

I tried to make Hwang, but 90 percent of the faces were fucking shit (are there even any new faces you can unlock). Also, the style you choose is a complete mirror of the regular character, down to the pose---since Hwang's style is Xianghua's, he looks faggy as hell.

I'll give Namco my money without hesitation if they put more Soul Calibur 1 stuff into CaS---oh nevermind, the DLC is already on the disc.

I think the fact you can't use lightsabers for CaS is a legal thing; they don't even let you change the colors for the Apprentice.

Mitsurugi's 8WR 2/8 A+K is a fucking beast---the range is nearly nonsensical, and people don't expect it.

...are there unlockable items exclusive to the Tower of Lost Faggots mode, or can I just unlock all this with honors.

I was speaking idiomatically.

You get honors by not sucking at the game---dead serious. Half of them should come naturally.

On another note, I'll have to admit that Towers mode is stupid as hell. I've only bothered to play 11 stages, but what is the point of all this wannabe-RPG shit. What happened to challenges that consisted of clever and skilled AI. Now, you put on some gold underwear and an afro so you can hit 5 times as hard. Oh aight.

Can I get Edgemaster Mode from Soul Edge. The 360 version instantly red rings because the music would be too much.

Off the top of my head, Seung Mina has 6A, K and 3K, K. I only trained once with her, and I remember her having a large handful of considerably effective low strikes.

I'm usually able to join a game after selecting quick match a couple of times. I heard that it's better to just create your own room, then limit it to two people to minimize lag, but I'm not sure that actually works, since I've experienced even worse lag in ranked matches.

We should all set up a day to play some matches online. My PSN is TrueHD.

The "DLC" is already on the disc---you are just downloading an unlock key.

Well, the whole point of omitting chat from the actual matches is to cut down on lag.

The online mode is good for fucking around---that's all. A reflex-based game is practically impossible, which is why everyone rushes down their opponent. GIs and quick-frame attacks can shut them up---too bad you can't rely on those online.

The best characters to use online are those with low attacks built into their movesets, and fast unblockables, which can be spammed all day and can't be guarded against. I just got owned by an Amy player---I'm not going to call her cheap because I'm unfamiliar with the character and how she plays offline, but she has an unblockable that seems like it comes out in 2 seconds, and a bunch of spammy regular attacks that not only move her forward, but are super-quick and end in lows.

I was speaking idiomatically.

5 bar connections mean nothing.

In fact, I ran into more "connecting..." messages with 5 bar players.

Isn't Setsuka some cheap bitch. Last I remember, she had low attacks that came out in like, 6 frames.

It's kind of like complaining how Amy isn't strong enough.

I think you're talking about 4K, B. I'm probably the only Mitsurugi player that never uses that move---whenever someone blocks it, I feel like I'm going to get slammed. I know that most players use that to mix things up between 2K, B, but I'd much rather fake the 2K to an extent of actually crouching, then using 1B, B.

I hate all of these fuckin' weeaboo characters that they've been introducing since Soul Calibur II. You know the ones I'm talkin' about---the ones with moves that look like they belong in a TEKKEN game. I wish I could put characters like Talim and Amy in a can, then piss in it. The soul still burns.

Well, the weeaboo characters are unlocked once you beat them in Story (Joke) Mode, but I am pretty sure that the rest (Rock, Sophitia) have to be bought.
