    A little off topic, but did Ver.B get a new intro? I heard that it did, but no one really uploaded anything yet.
    Edit: didn't think it would be up so soon, thanks a lot Reno.

    the intro is not new, there's one new sequence to promote the new single player mode (which has only appeared fucking once... good job Sega) but otherwise it's the same thing.

    Maybe the next thing they will add is throw range interval and/or hit boxes. [​IMG]

    Interesting that Jacky's mid spin kick is -15 normally and -10 from the side!

    Do side hits always give an automatic +5? Or is it proportional? Arbitrary?

    Did I just see a SDE be -5? Is that for real? Very first move of the match.

    EDIT: I remember Konjou saying "How do they make it look so safe!?" While we were watching R matches at WCG Fighter Club. This would certainly explain it...

    Considering the amount of dmg he can do off that move alone (close to 50%) Akria players at this point would be considered retarded to still complain about him. -5...I know what character I will switch to if this games ever comes out just spam SDE all day lol

    The SDE was also shown to have an execution of 15f in the video.

    Now was this because of the 1f "penalty" from the dash input, or has it really been changed from 14f to 15f exe? If the latter, then I can sort-of-maybe understand reducing the recovery on guard to -5.

    They give the adv/dis for escaped throws!

    This is such a wicked tool for training new players! Imagine being able to turn this on in game or in a 2 player dojo & being able to teach a new enthusiast. Imagine fixing all (some!) of the stupid things you did to lose the match you saved.

    I like how the bar turns yellow when there's guaranteed damage to be had.

    -5 is too safe.

    Maybe it's because P was slowed down for most (all?) characters?

    The SDE being -5 doesn't surprise me at all. In R, the reward/risk ratio has been upgraded across the board for all characters. For example, Wolf's [df][df][P]+[K] is safe and nets 70+ points. Goh's knee is safe and can inflict 80+ points damage. Etc.

    Yeah Konjou, listen to your boy [​IMG]

    The new replay option is pretty slick though. A mook would be so easy to do now..

    Yes. Yes you did. Holy fuck. That is.. Broken. I dunno. Doesn't feel like VF anymore. More like tekken 6.5. Defense techniques will be pointless soon.

    I personally like the higher reward / lower risk ratio change in VF5R. It makes the game feel faster and frankly more exciting.

    I don't think defensive techniques are down the drain. I feel like they are on the rise to avoid stuff like that.

    If a move like SDE requires you only do [2][G] fuzzy, which is about as safe as it gets, why do you think there are other 'worse' situations you have to defend after? I really don't know what to think anymore. Only way to get some guaranteed damage thru must be succesful evade then. Kind of like Tekken.

    and ice-9: that kind SDE is basically high reward-no risk.
