any DBFZ fans playing Blazblue Cross Tag beta right now?
Game looks hella fun, if you enjoy anime 2D fighters
netcode seems pretty decent
TL; DR - I'll almost certainly try the game out, but if it turns out as crazy and over-the-top offensively as the beta made it look, Ill probably enjoy watching it @ tourney rather than playing it.
I'm going to probably check it out, because I am unable to not buy, and at least try, all new 'major' FGs that release.. but from what I have seen of the beta I don't think it will be a game for me all said and done.
Of course it's early and it's just a beta, but the game AS ITS UNDERSTOOD RIGHT NOW looks to be a little too insane for me to enjoy playing. The overriding theme I kept seeing from people who had gotten extended time with it was basically 'if you think it'll work, it probably will', and that's awesome in many respects, but a lot of what I was seeing coming out were very high damage combos into legit 4 way 'hard-to-blockable' into the same situation... With rounds ending in the blink of an eye. Couple that with the scramble-into-hitconfirm neutral with HUGE moves and normals that cover enormo sections of the screen.. and you have a game I will absolutely enjoy watching, but never want to personally play.
There's nothing wrong with that style of game at all, hell DBFz is very much along those lines itself, but BBCT looks like it pushes those aspects even further than dbfz does. From a
personal standpoint I prefer games with a more measured pace, longer rounds and with less of an over-all scrambly feel.
Obv these opinions, observations and impressions are based entirely on what we know/have seen of the BETA. So the game, our understanding of it, the meta that will dominate and everything else in between is subject to change drastically with time.
