Forums - Gaming - My thoughts on Tekken Revolution - What are yours?

Played quite a lot, like it. I treat it casual, playing when I have the free coins. The amount of characters and arenas is enough for me, since I only play with King.

When it comes to multi, too many noobs using Marshall Law or Kazuya and only the Special Arts. I usually beat them as I am pretty good and agile with blocking, it still is a pain in the ass.

Hoping for some more updates like the one with Free training mode and Hwoarang.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

Haha, I'm a Kazuya noob!  But I don't spam Special Arts, I just have been playing with him since the original game.  I am pretty rusty, but I actually try to use combos and learn the moves (again, via Arcade lol) instead of spamming moves.

But I can see why Namco included the Special Arts.  For those noobs who haven't played Tekken before, the game might be a little overwhelming.  The series kinda has been criticized for being a little too harsh for newcomers in the past so these moves are a great equalizer of sorts.  But the really good players like you know how to get around it so I don't think it's even close to gamebreaking.

And that's cool. I am not against using Law or Kazuya, far from it (well maybe Law a bit since every second player uses him...) I'm just against using 2 or 3 commands, special art included. I admire every person that plays using skill and combos.

And I'm far from being a good player ;-P I win maybe 60-65% of my fights and am far from mastering King. Got a fight today with a really good King player and he destroyed me 3-1 with amazing chains of grabs and combos, but I wasn't surprised since he had like 140 wins vs my 35 :D

I dislike the coin thing, its not worth it.



I disliked it. It says its free but you need to pay to even play arcade more than once in an hour. Everyone is better off getting tekken 6 or tag 2.

Does anyone realise that this is technically a pre-alpha beta test for Tekken X Street Fighter?

I hate it, none of my favorite fighters isn't there to begin with : Jin, Steve and Xioyuo. And what worse is apparently the fighters unlocking are random!! My first unlock was a robot girl with a chainsaw!
So instead of letting people select their favorite fighters to begin with, Namco force you to fight whoever they give you and pay up to keep playing till you unlock your desired fighters??! (even if it mean a long way)
Seriously fucking dumb idea!!
Stick with TT2 everyone and don't waste your money on this trash!!


All of these guys are unlockables

Look on the bright side, you can at least get yours, I'm a Hwoarang player and he's not here (yet but apparently he's on his way) so I play as Steve

That must be frustrating, but like  Ajescent said, at least they are unlockable.  And I haven't had to pay a cent while playing the game so I don't feel robbed.  For those who want everything quick and painless, yes TT2 is where it's at.  Or you can P2W, but where's the fun in that?  I still think for those who want to go online and fight a couple matches or are interested in the RPG-lite progression in the game, it's not that bad.  Just give us our training mode already Namco! Hehe.



My opinion is that it while not as good as Tekken 6, it is better than Tag 2 because it hasn't really got the bound and juggling mechanic. Sure people do it but less so that before. The extra feature (the shadow moves? not sure what they are actually called) are cool and all but different characters get different advantages from them which is frustrating. Again the game is going down to who you pick as a character. 8/10 I am fighting either Law or Kazuya and of those using Kazuya, most are Devil eye lazer spammers. Asuka still has her counter move so that bad as well.

My character of choice in the series is Lee Chaolan and he's nowhere to be seen. While I can play with all others, I'm learning Leo properly and he translates better in this game than in Tekken 6 or Tag 2. Like I think Dragunov was better in Tekken 6 than he was in Tekken 5 DR.

This all said, it's free and I haven't spent a penny on it, so don't really mind eitherway.



Hmm, pie.

What I noticed, and what is slightly frustrating, is that Kazuya and Law's main 'Special Arts' do this weird go back and then forward movement, meaning it's used in a very spammy way, they attack with something they know I'll block and when they finish and I do my moves, (including lower sweeps) they do their move, my move misses because of their characters back steps and I get hit.

Kazuya's also is teamed up with Lazer a lot, get hit and instantly someone will try and lazer you. Cheap tactic. My friends and I all have a rule, if you get Devil Jin or Kazuya when playing random, Lazers are out... we class it as cheating.

 

Oh well, Lee is never going to be in the game anyway and it anything, if got me playing Tekken 6 again.



Hmm, pie.
