VF5R Kage Changes

Dammit! Looks like I'll have to finally learn the damn move.

Ogi, on normal hit does /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/f.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/f.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif+/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif float or knock down (as if done in an air combo)? Is it /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/f.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/f.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif+/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif > /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif > /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/d.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif+/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif or /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/f.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/f.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif+/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif > /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/d.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif+/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif? Also, can you comment on how the speed, range and recovery compare to the move in VF5 ver. C? Thanks!!

 

WOW~
nice info about KAGE~
thanks for the posting 0gi~ /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

I think Kage still belongs to high rank character; however, compare with VF5, maybe a little bit dropped but it's not a big deal~

 

normal hit combo possible.

(like u use 66p+k on crouching opp, if hit u can keep comboing)

like 66p+k p 2p+kk, does decent dmg.

range is okish it seems, not short. recovery is ok, small disadv, i think its same as in 5.

when that move hits, it feels like his old vf4 chop...

the speed of the move, i think its even fast as in 5. maybe they change? i dont know. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif

 

Range looks really bad. Look at his side kick now!

 

NOOOOOOO!!!!! I'm a Kage player, and the tremendous nerfing...they might have well have removed him.

 

You may have to stop playing video games altogether this is such a travesty!

 

Gensic is right: "...they might have well have removed him." They should only bring back Kage in VF6 if he's going to be in the upper tiers.
Lower tier Kage: we don't want him! /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/mad.gif
Other characters can and should be nerfed but never Kage.
For crying out loud, he's a ninja! /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cry.gif

 

1) Hey so does TFT combos still allows 2p+k for a connecter for 60+ damages now?
such as in vf5 - TFT -> 2p+k -> 4pk -> 6_pp4pk for 63dmg

2) I forgot where I saw it, but someone said dpod is easier to execute in 5R, is this true? If so, whats the difference?

 

That is good news. It's great the way it is imho.

 

sorry for asking what might be a silly question,
but what string is kage doing at 1:48 in the highkickradio jeff vs kage vid posted in this thread earlier?
he does a punch and kick (hm?) into shipp. is it a new move or a new ani?

 

hmmmmm... we all have 2 learn him new... that sux... i think... maybe its fun... we will see...

 

I went through the trouble of skimming through the thread and saw nothing about this

A couple of times in the vid Kage catches Akiras knee with JM kick-reversal.

 

Huh ? The back flip jump (~1:06) has been slowed down a lot ! Or ?

 

Suits me. Almost all of the moves that have been changed were moves with which I've taken issue, and I'm glad to see that Mr. I'm Ridiculously Too Powerful has been changed. It seems like they've just taken that 'for fuck's sake that move is so broken!' factor away from most of his stuff, which means that people will have to play that bit harder and depend on their skill to win instead of just falling back on Kage's silly moves list.

I just hope we get a console version...
