Someone finally pointed out how dumb safe armored heat engagers are, good god.

[@Perry_Talion]

I hate them too. The safe heat smashes are just as horrible on other characters too. oof. Even if you block the low version there is no payoff.

[@SnowflakeSSQ]

So cheap. And for some reason almost every character has them (ofc not Kazuya)

[@jumpfold]

But if you think about it, it would just be an easier way to point boost for those that do it. Permanent bans from ranked is my vote. 3 violations, you're banned. They can still play player matches because it's just funny for them to plug there.

quick match not having infinite matches is terrorism

Thank you, I was just about to say this. It wasn't in T7 so I assumed it was just accidentally left out. It's sad to see such a banger of a song not included in the jukebox.

Steve is voiced by the same guy they rerecorded all the lines for Tekken 8. It’s the first game to not reuse any of the voice work in a really long time.

[@omegaweapon116]

Jun and DJ's heat smashes are just crazy. They turn into damn Street Fighter characters temporarily

[@KingQuetzal]

Jun isn't even that bad. Sure it heals a bit on block, but on hit it isn't even a full heal like some (or is it all?) other characters.

[@Adieu_tk]

​@KingQuetzal it's the fact that it's 2 hits, the second one tracks, it can be used in combos and is a full screen whiff or movement punisher

[@omegaweapon116]

@@Adieu_tk and it wall splats

[@KingQuetzal]

@@omegaweapon116 Yeah, I don't think it's that crazy. Just hold back if you are that scared. She has no low combo starters. If you play mid/close range with frequent side stepping and step the first heat burst shot the second is launch punishable as well. Just have to play around it a bit, much easier than characters who gain a ton of +frames while in heat. She basically doesn't gain any frames from heat so having some phantom pressure isn't even that crazy.

[@UltimaMan]

As a British person, what is Steve's accent? I've lived in England my whole life, and I've never met anyone who sounds like him. It's like a bad impression of an English accent.

[@simpson6700]

i really don't understand how this entire plugging situation can be so hard. at the beginning of a match have both players send the match ID to a server to ensure they are in a match, then when one player loses connection have the other player send a signal to the server, have the server send a signal to both players and wait for a return signal. whoever's signal doesn't return gets a lose, the win streak is ended and the server will remember the amount of times that player has quit, after X amount of quits within a timeframe they will either be removed from ranked matchmaking, get a timeout, or get thrown into a queue with other quitters only, whoever's signal returns gets a win, if neither player returns a signal it's neither a lose nor a win. this can even be done on a P2P fighting game, since most online games have matchmaking servers that hands off the connection to the P2P system once the connection is established.

[@simpson6700]

same goes for costume cheaters, at the beginning of a match check if all costume settings are within limits. if they are not, check by how much, see if we're dealing with a cheater or a rounding error. if it's a suspected cheater put them on a list, see if this happens more often and how consistent the values are. if it looks like a rounding error just put those values within the limits.

[@craigfletcher-zn8kl]

Right,makes it unplayable for me while I've got sf6 for easily finding long sets.

[@sviat37]

You forgot a very important thing, that Training Mode won't save your "recording" and "select move to play" options, so everytime you play a match or change anything that reloads the mode, everything gets deleted. This was a problem since Tekken 7 release, it just more noticeable now because we can use Training Mode while searching for a match, so it makes half of the Training Mode useless, you just don't have time to re-record everything after each match and it's so annoying. I think more people should talk about this, no other games besides Tekken does this in Training Mode.

Ranked could be a 30+ minute video on its own. 😂 Since T6, I stopped caring as much. I put what I consider a decent rank on (purple ranks), then I just play casually.

[@Seifer_PT]

Thanks for mentioning nerfed backdash. It looks like after 8 years they still haven't gotten the message. But who am I kidding? Even if they buffed it, they would just give Reina ff2 a jetpack, which you can purchase from the Tekken Shop. Not to worry, since I could just plug, should I run into it in ranked. Thanks for the video.

[@sleepenjoyer-on2dr]

I honestly wish Heat wasn't a thing in general. Rage and Rage art are enough. You just can't focus on fundamentals properly anymore, so many moves and heat smashes are absurdly strong that it ruins the notorious difficulty of Tekken. I had a much harder time ranking up in SF6 than in Tekken 8.

[@Fetenepi]

Let's not forget homing grabs. I could think of a lot more gaming sins for T8.

[@zosazsatara5889]

What do you mean by homing grabs?

[@eutimiolongoria4696]

Other 3-D games like DoA and Virtua Fighter had great tracking on throws. It was a solid counter play option without having to commit to a slow full circular (homing). I am actually glad throws have more tracking in this game.

[@zato-1766]

Yea I don't get that. King neutral now is a lot of run up grab because that shit is homing for no reason. They already buffed grabs by making them uncountable when you parry or PC so why did they also need to be homing? I feel like it's a noob crutch but at the same time all they've done is just made learning guardbreaks that much more important and therefore the game is overall less accessible.

I would like for stages to change randomly after each fight in Ghost Battle Mode. It gets boring fighting 10- 20 matches in the same stage currently.

[@Manley156]

2:55 I mean this is unequivocally untrue. Frame dropping on your end is entirely dictated by your own device and both players connection to the server. Their bad connection can affect your match, but not their Pc's ability to produce proper framerates.

[@princekanbatsu2301]

i would definitely add heat bursts having infinite range in neutral minus a few selected characters. And yeah the netcode is terrible, the rollback occurs every single match at a average of 2/3 rollback frames which make any movement action look like mini teleporting LOL

My experience: Finding matches take 30 minutes in almost every rank. Shitty netcode Game crashes all the time. Can't play 1 match without crashing with my titan x and i9900k pc Broken characters. Grabs broken. Can't backdash avoid, can't jump avoid, can't sidestep avoid, unreactable and grabs break armor moves 100% guaranteed your health +more People plug 80% of the time and loses nothing Shitty ranking system

[@nerooyeye2196]

I think the matchmaking problem is a You thing The netcode has been decent so far on my side The pc port needs some work Broken characters are a part of every fighting game at launch(I'm not saying its a good thing but just cut t8 some slack on that one) I agree that grabs don't need to track, but other than that, they're alright. The sidestepping and backdashing problem sounds like skill issue cuz movement is better in this game The ranking system is actually shitty and pluggers are indeed a problem

[@Shadow-gz2hg]

Agree on the netcode part, it's slightly better than T7 netcode but worse than SF6 netcode. But the excuse I always get is Tekken is 3D game so having good netcode is harder🙃

I would like to have a quick queue button - just press and it loads into previous matchmaking characters/stage. Skipping 5 seconds of animations. I'd like to have a legitimate quit match button. Heat activation cutscenes take me out of the game flow. Yes, it was mentioned, but I want a button to queue for tekken ball online. SF6 also dropped that 'ball'. Unfortunately they went the SF6 route with real money currency not matching prices for costumes. I hate with a passion when you can't drop ranks on loss. Just let me play with the players of my skill, instead of only pushing me up! I wanted to have battlepass. To reward me for playing. But that's just my preference. And above all else - let me have an option for only default outfits. My goodness! Like Soul Calibur 6 learned that lesson and added the setting.

[@CountChokcula]

Why TF would you want Eliza or Chloe? Two extremely annoying characters. Kuni is basically victor, but Victor is probably better balanced

[@CountChokcula]

I have neutral feelings on heat and rage arts at a high level. However, at a low to intermediate level, I find heat and rage to be incredibly scrubby most of the time; most people are dumb with it and die or kill you from hitting two buttons from mashing to death.

[@Yami_Oni]

@@CountChokcula I mean Eliza is my main, I love her design, her gameplay (even if she is bottom 3), dark magic, etc. so I definitely want her back. Lucky Chloe is my friend’s main, plus she is pretty fun to fight against, and interesting as a character. T7 Kunimitsu is literally the daughter of legacy Kunimitsu, they kinda made it big deal. Plus she is cute, fun to fight against, and play as. Also Noctis is who Victor replaced, and Victor is braindead and definitely not balanced at all.

[@Yami_Oni]

@@CountChokcula even at high level I think they are stupid mechanics. (Rage arts if anything should be combo enders only.) Seeing any high level player use heat burst to extend a combo is boring and ugly (plus throws off the pace of combat.) Heat Engagers also being tied on typical legacy good moves is annoying as hell. Honestly Rage Arts and Heat Burst as mechanics have been making players have terrible fundamentals and lack understanding of movement, punishing etc. and is causing the game to suffer. Honestly if Tekken 7 had Tekken 8’s netcode, and sidestepping. I would be back in Tekken 7.
