"Soon" Is better than no timeframe, but I can't help but feel that's more of a generic PR response than an actual confirmation that were getting the update in the near future.

Indeed. This feels like the kind of "soon" where you take bets with your friends, not the kind of "soon" where you make sure you turn on your PS3 every day starting next week.

I wonder if Dizzy would qualify. Some of the stuff she got is pretty retarded. But then again, everyone more than ever, has some pretty retarded stuff so i guess it balances out.

I feel like part of why shes so good is because the other top tiers got toned down in addition to her buffs. She doesn't seem out of place in terms of balance though, neither does Faust. They both are kind of just 'well here's this character, but better'. More so dizzy than Faust, but the way they are used and how you beat them is the same. Zappa on the other hand looks a bit nutso...

I also think Testament is going to climb tooth and nail back up the tier list haha. Players are starting to get all the new stuff down and it's looking pretty scary.

Frankly I don't see it happening. The more you analyze Testament's new stuff the more you see how limited it is. It just *looks* scary but at the end of the day it's either full of holes or cost him meter to keep applying. It's competent, sure, but really nothing out of the ordinary compared to other characters' average pressure/mixup ability. He still has his solid neutral game/space control though.

That's kind of a silly thing to say. Characters with decent offense and well-above-average neutral game aren't high-tier material? From what I've seen recently, TE is average at everything he's not super good at, meaning by definition pretty strong. Characters don't have to be completely broken in any specific way to be better on average than most characters.

Yeah, but i don't feel he's super good at anything anymore, just more or less decent at everything. Still good, but not as powerful as he once was.

I was just talking about his "scary offense", that's all. Of course you can have an great overall character because of other aspects.

I'm still a little confused why Dizzy is considered a top character

her main buffs were vastly improved oki and a few buffs to her neutral game like FB daggers and autopop bubbles, but in general she still seems to have all the same weaknesses as before. Basically, powerful when it's her turn, and can kind of run away/keepaway against certain characters, but is easily bullied up close and various characters still seem to get in on her easily or keep her out with superior range and pokes, and she still has meager defensive options.

I guess it's a sign of good game balance if a character like that is considered top tier material

Yeah she still has problems of lacking any good defensive options but...

Fish. Fish makes her turn so much more threatening. She gets many more mixup opportunities with it along with it being more of a threat on neutral. And because of FB spears and autopop bubbles it makes getting in on her much harder anyway. Basically the parts she's lacking in is pretty much covered up by her buffs.

Granted, I still don't think she's quite as dumb as AC Eddie or Testament, so there's that...

Fish is a GOD tier which has one big weakness with two wings and huuuuuuuge hurtbox. That's why it's so low in tier list.

I'm curious. Does AC actually use different in-match netcode than P4A/CSEX? I could see it using the same netcode but feeling a lot worse without the features in P4A/CSEX that help smooth that out, like advanced input.

That's not the problem, if that was the problem then we'd just have difficulty inputting stuff. But the netplay in AC like randomly explodes and goes completely to crap (screen freezes, sometimes complete disconnects). Game usually perpetually runs at like 80% speed too.

It's really frustrating because it can work just fine at times, but rarely. I've played a 4 hour set with a dude in the same city as me (4 bars) and we had lots of fun but it still randomly exploded like once out of every 5 matches.

It's actually kind of amusing to play AC netplay while listening to Robo-Ky theme.

I feel it's disturbing to be waiting for someone to join your lobby while the Robo-ky theme is playing. Gives me that desolate feeling that I'm the only one online at the moment (especially because i'm in the EU, so it doesn't happen often that someone with a good connection joins :)).
