New footage, 12 minutes of Swamp thing by IGN

[CrazyFingers]

They heard all the armchair game designers here who said it was broken after watching a trailer and nerfed it.

Or maybe the armchair game designers were just...wrong.

I cannot imagine at this point that NRS takes anything we say on this forum pre-release seriously. That would be more horrifying than any decision NRS has ever independently made.

Thanks for sharing! Promoted.

The restand for green thumb doesn't seem very...good. and his wakeup move seems to be that AA move unless the meaties the opponent is doing are just super off timed (doesn't look like that tho)

Also i think trait has a mechanic with placing the garden because in one bit he only places 2 "tiles" but in another he like 3 or 4 out at once.

He looks neat, but he really does not look like the grappler I'm looking for. Maybe Bane got some new tools or Cheetah will turn out to be awesome.

Do you guys think that sliding uppercut thing is a special or a button? I don't remember seeing it referenced in the breakdown video.

Trait needs to be reworked and buffed slightly

on the same spectrum of saying it's op, we can't be saying shit is terrible either. We know so little about him still.

It's a special, he can MB it and he uses it mid string multiple times.

huh, what do ya know, kind of similar with being big dude with not a ton of facial features and a lot of...wet, textures.

Also, the mentioning of the Black Mercy was a nice touch not gonna lie.

 

[navaroNe]

Cool footage. He's looking pretty floaty for such a large character but I like what I see so far

 

[JnTonioo]

im ready i need the game now

 

[1man3letters]

also havnt seen it mentioned but his sweep is also different than the tyler video. doesnt hit twice :/

hard to know which of the two is the most update to date build

it could be the same model just different textures

The most powerful super.

Yup. Win pose is still badass.

Post-patch Tremor knows that feel bro,

I was originally disappointed by how the vine grab seems to be duckable, but it makes sense when you factor in the Swamp Thing trait. If you can't jump or dash when in the grass, then that vine grab would be free in some situations.

That's good attention to detail, so well done, NRS!

 

[Raiderhorn]

Swamp Thing looks gorgeous. And that Vine Swing does HELLA damage especially MB

 

[Thingy]

Expect me to break it down in another post.

What he really means...

 

[MKF30]

Looks pretty solid, he's slower yet effective but not broken. He looks like quite a few moves on whiff from mid to close range will be crazy punishable. I'm loving his trait into pressure within that area as well as his AA shoulder trees. In a game with no block button and higher cross overs, that will come in handy.

The most powerful super.

Is someone throwing a garbage pail at him?

Black Canary lost the ability to extend combos with the special where she jumps off you and continues the combo with a jump kick. Now that mb special resets you and she can choose to cross you up or not

@3:40 she combos off it. I think the person playing canary was just inputting it too late.
