Crowd Reacts to BBTag Announcement at Evo Japan 2019

[@NihongoGamer]

I’m just gonna pin this here because it’s important to me. This is the 9am slot for grand finals day so being a thinner crowd is pretty normal. Also, the weird seating arrangements for EVO Japan meant a majority of the audience with regular price tickets couldn’t sit at the front. So the front of the audience looked 1/4 full all day for all grand finals while the cheaper seats were more full at the back and in the 2nd/3rd floor gallery. From being there in person I definitely wouldn’t describe BBTag as “dead” so I hope the video here doesn’t make it seem that way. Audience behind me sounded quite excited at the announcement! I’m looking forward to the new characters :)

[@kylewarne1265]

[@mrhobs]

People just like to pronounce everything dead. Whether its a defense mechanism (preparing for the worst), or because they're trying to bring down a franchise that competes with their preferred game, I am not sure, maybe some of each.

The standard seating was all the way at the back. The front seats didn't fill up up until Tekken and Street Fighter.

[@vulkin8824]

A game doesnt need to have an overbooked seated competition and a huge player base to not be dead. It's kind of annoying seeing people go so hard on it for being "dead" just because there isn't an entire concert audience screaming at the top of their lungs. This isn't overwatch, the player base is just consistent and niche. Nothing more than that but definitely nothing less.

[@containeduniverse]

@Vulkin The game is dead *because* it's watered-down.

[@vulkin8824]

@@containeduniverse how so?

[@containeduniverse]

@@vulkin8824 1. The characters from the 3 fighting franchises have been severely butchered for no logically sound reason except to try to reinvent the wheel for some nonexistent casual player base. These are already established characters with unique play-styles. The overall purpose for each was already put in place. Normals, specials, supers, combos, status effects, etc. are already done to allow the character to succeed in their own unique way. Going in and taking away characters functionality because of lame excuses like having 3 assist makes up for it is the most foolish thing I've ever heard. Most assist are garbage and when a character on a team dies, the lone character is even more in trouble because a bunch of their neutral tools (designed so they can fight properly) are either not in the game or placed behind unneeded auto-combos (We already have chain combos). It's the equivalent of removing Akuma's Dragon Punch and teleport, placing his Demon Flip behind an auto-combo route and removing 40% of his normal attacks. Every character doesn't need a universal overhead, anti-air or sweep. The fact that some characters have these and others don't is what makes match-ups more interesting. Homogenizing when it's not needed. It's f--cking backwards that they made a game engine and shoehorned established characters into it instead of the other way around. They can't place a bunch of their assets into this limited engine, but a game like Marvel can put ALL of these characters untouched into it's engine. SMH When fans of these 3 games saw the trailer last year, the first thing that comes to mind is they get to used the characters they're familiar with on teams. NO other team fighter in existence waters down characters to the point they become "someone else". Long-time fans have been betrayed and the game has caused a separation in the ArcSys/anime-fighter player-base instead of bringing all of them together. What reason does Japan have to invest in such a game when they have highly competitive communities in all of the mainline games where their favorites have all of their tools? That is why the large majority of those players pay this game no mind at all. 2. The game is a cluttered mess. They placed the Under-Night camera on this game and it's a big limitation to freedom. Character's air options are limited because they placed an invisible barrier above one screen space. The Unist camera can work in a 1v1, but a 2v2 with all characters constantly on the screen? It's one of the main reason certain teams are so dominant. There's no space to move vertically. It's doesn't even make sense. You can go vertically higher when you do air combos, but when using a super jump that's designed to allow for higher jumping, you're not allowed the properly use of that function. That lack of functionally screws up a massive amount of BB and P4 characters. Hazama can't move around with chains, Jubei can't dip and dodge, Yosuke can't glide, Izayoi can't fly and confuse. SMH Every other team game with super jumps has the camera following the jumping character. You can't even launch an air counter attack in this game.

[@david2618]

@@containeduniverse I agree, but I play BBTag because I don't get matches in Central fiction.

[@containeduniverse]

@@david2618 That's because ArcSys keeps making weak networking tools that don't work for a *global* community. Also, BBtag is a newer game. BBCF's last update was over a year ago. I get the feeling they're trying to push BBCF out in favor of BBtag. That's going to be a disaster because people that like BBCF will just take their business elsewhere.

I'm definetly excited I will have reason to play BBTag for awhile again and hope people give arcana a try, after knowing about it. And the fact that I will get more MAAB players to play now, that it'll be on international steam, and gives hope to a ps4 international port it deserves. and examu gets some free money it definetly could use 6th fate, I'll make a prediction. Chaos Code. based on the fact that light blue matches some of the light parts of CC logo. and the fact that its another super under rated ASW licenced game that can use free promotion this game might give it.
