No, the combos aren't scripted in MvC3.  There are certain attacks in the game that do 30, or 40 hits max, those are scripted, but not the entire 120 hit combo.  SCV just sucked.  That's why it went under.

From how you're talking, you're going to absolutely hate Tekken 7.

And, Tekken is still like how you described at first.  Only people who don't know how to play allow themselves to get hit by combo after combo.  People who know how to play are going to have more proper defense, and look for counter attacks, which deal more than usual damage.  Paul's Pheonix smasher  on rage + counter hit does about 1/3 damage, from a single attack, for example.  If you're hit by that 3 times, you lose.  But, if you were silly enough to get hit by it 3 times, you deserved to lose anyway.

However, I've bought Tekken 5 so many times.  Once on PSP, twice on PS2, and again on PS3.  I have problems getting into it, because some characters are missing attacks.  But, Tekken 5 has combos that deal 60%+ health too.

I should have been more precise. Bound was the issue. 'Bound' broke Tag 2. Juggling is a standard Tekken thing but it used to be skill that allowed you to do it but bound made it a game mechanic. In 6 it wasn't much of an issue because Tag didn't exist but it felt like they made it easier for some characters than other, Lars being designed for it, while older generation characters didn't translate as well. Lars was bloody confusing to block against, you see, he'd start telegraphic an attack, swing his arms and that's a low attack? What?

I never minded Paul with Rage, but rage is only when your health is low, it's already a risk to be in that situation. If you are, most likely that you'll lose the match anyway. Anyway, according to gameplay, you lose rage if you perform a rage art, so not spamming as you mention above.

I may well hate Tekken 7 (I expect I won't as at first I wasn't fussed on 6 but love it now), Tekken Revolution was okay with no bound at all it played more like 5 but the flash moves also broke that. The fade-in-out ones could be spammed to a ridiculous level.



Hmm, pie.
