[Nokita]

Day 1 Valkenhayn impressions:

*Rasenwolf command changed to direction + D
With this,the wolf break system has been eliminated apparently.

*2C>6B does not connect on a grounded opponent.

*Nacht rosen>[JB>JA]>2C does not work or its really tight.
Seems like they end up being too low for the 2C to hit.

*JC>air DD is difficult to connect.
Hima isn't sure why.

*w.5B does not launch.
w.5B does not cause float on air hit.

*w.5C is a sweep.

*w.JC is a diagonal kick.

Platinum:

New move is "Happy Magica"

• 41236C
• Is a counter move
• if hit, she will teleport above the opponent

[XDest]

Isn't Cat Spirit Encore after Cat Spirit 3? That's where it's under in the pdf. I think it's just the same move as Cat Spirit One.

[Lord Knight]

litchi 41236A > B and 41236A > C removed

these are still in

[suwave688]

Is Overdrive going to be like x-factor in mvc3 in terms of health and length? It's a huge change in the system. Not too sure how I feel about that... Comboability changes for everyone?

[Juunee]

Drive: Lock-on
Overdrive: Hit Zabito

TL credit to XDest, looks like Bullet has different stances or effects on hit or something similar. I wonder what each of the "engages" does

Dankeschein, here's the movelists for anyone who wants to give a shot at TLing. http://25.media.tumb...do1_r1_1280.png

Just siphoning info off the other thread so my apologies if I don't credit you

[cmdr_nippon]

Tager

• New Move: Air Driver
  
  • 360A
• New Move: Grand Punish
  
  • j.63214A
• Changed Move: Spark Bolt
  
  • Can be performed with 623D

Air Driver is 360 C not A

[Tokkan]

My attempts at romanization.

Wildcat would be Wairudokyatto, not Waddokatto.

Also, the inputs for Serpentine Assault, Frangible Engage and Blackout are 720A, 720D and 1080D (Total of 2580 degrees of churning that stick.)

My Attempt at correction

41236C: Mukuretto Capture

Distortions:
2363214C: Rage Aggressor
720A: Serpentine Assault
-> 720D: Frangible Engage
->-> 1080D: Blackout

No clue what Mukuretto is. But "Wadcut" is Engrish for wadcutter (a kind of bullet), frangible means fragile, snaphance is a springlock for a gun.

[superscience890]

Some random stuff for Bang that I translated

http://jbbs.livedoor.../1326553365/680
623B no longer wall bounces.
j.623B wall stick is shortened
5D is not jump cancelable and doesn't combo into 623B either
6C > j.B > j.4C > j.C > 5A still works on Ragna

http://jbbs.livedoor.../1326553365/687
For all 4 seals you need to get one of each move (!?)

As for 22A、 Works the same way as Rachel's float with the umbrella.

[Isuna]

I just came back from the loketest, and here is my impressions of it. I am not a top player, I am not particulary confortable with most characters and I just watched because you had to wait over an hour to play. So, I warn you that my impressions might be wrong. Beware of Wall of Text.

System

• Overdrive: Lasts about 5 seconds on full health, last about 15 seconds with almost no health.
• Corner bounce: Instead of bouncing off the wall, they instead seem to be stuck to the wall for a little while and then fall straight to the ground. Seemed like it was harder to combo because of this.
• Menu: Menu is completely redesigned. Characters are positioned like asfaik they are in GG. When you select colour, you get to see in-game sprite instead of just rough colour selection.
• Design: Heat Guage is light blue 1~24, green 25~49, red 50~99 and yellow at 100. Rapid cancel looks like a red Faultless Defence.

Overdrives

• Ragna: Blood Kain with no health loss. I think Devour by Darkness does double damage.
• Hakumen: Unbelievably fast magatama gain. I think it would neutralize Mugen drain.
• Tsubaki: Some Install gain, but compared to Hakumen very slow.

Characters

• Ragna: You don't need Blood Kain for Devour by Darkness, but it does "only" 2200 damage (but double damage in Blood Kain). He has a new overhead-like attack when he transforms his hand like Devour, and hits opponent from above. Maybe this is Blood Schythe on ground.
• Jin: The ice on frozen opponents is MUCH smaller. New Sekkajin hits four times very quickly, but only for 664 by itself. Follow-ups for 25% with yukikaze animation. Musou Senshouzan fly much lower. New J214C is basically a air version of Fubuki, slashing downward. C version cannot be followed up, but D version can be. Air Hiyoku Getsumei shoots more diagonally downwards than you might think, probably only usable in combos.
• Noel: New sexy look. Can transform her pistols into a shotgun that causes corner bounce. Did not see any A Optic Barrels. Flash Hider seems uncomboable. New air attack, she fires diagonally downward with her pistols, with so much hitstop it looks weird. Revolver Blasts chains to this. 2D is completely changed: It has much slower start-up but flies much longer. In fact, it will cross-over close opponents completely. Sometimes 6C>2D works.
• Rachel: Can transform rods into homing cat bats with a propeller in their belly. Seems like they work like the pumpkin in that way that they only have hitboxes while affected by Silpheed.
• Taokaka: Looked like she could do Hexa-Edge mid-air (or something alike, the attacked missed and didn't continue).
• Litchi: Has a special move that moves her across more-than-half-screen and through opponent, which is also an attack at the end.
• Arakune: Can call down a big spider, that hangs on a string and then goes back up. Can be done in front of him, on him or behind him. Also, it seems like he can spit some other type of cloud both on ground and in air.
• Hakumen: Agito quickly kicks downwards. Can be used in the end of his new air combo, as the his old is dead. J2A no longer resets gravity meaning that Hakumen falls very quickly after it. Opponent floats higher when hit by it. JB > J2A > jc JB > J2A is possible, but whether JC hits after that seems unstable. J2A doesn't chain to itself even in corner. Tsubaki doesn't cause slide. Forward throw causes stagger. Shield animation for 6D is much later, makes it look weird. Seems like there is greater hitstop on zanshin guard.
• Tsubaki: Dark Tsubaki is standard colour. Forward throw screen bounces. Seems to have a command throw that does about 960 damage and you can combo of. New super calls upon 8 blades to home in on opponent, but is not guaranteed to come out. If all 8 blades hit it is slightly less than 1600 damage. If all blades are blocked it gives long hitstun as they hit one after one other.
• Hazama: Did not see any Hirentotsu-loops. Possibly 2C floats higher. Chains have new metallic sound effect.
• Makoto: New move seems to bring her forward, like Hell's Fang.
• Relius: Pulls a lever and projectile appears from the floor, at different places. Kinda like a Optic Barrel with less height.
• Amane: Seems to be the most popular of the new charater. Has many attacks with minimum range, so (s)he probably replaces Lambda as the spacer character. Drill gauge seem to increase every time a drill attack is used, even if it misses. On level 3, the special that causes a drill to come out of the ground hits about 30 times and deals over 2000 damage. One super moves her forward and through opponent while attacking. The other is like Spike Chaser but with drills. Seems to be able to charge her drill as well, similar to Tsubaki charging Install.
• Bullet: I could not stop thinking of Bang and Makoto when watching this character, at least if you think of the design. She can charge up to three levels of Heat Up. Her Heat Up dissappears when she presumably uses a drive attack/special. Has an super that brings opponent to corner, the follow-up then returns the middle of the level.
  
• Azrael: Charges a red arua. Charging it seems to be an attack as well. Gets markers on opponent, either on the upper body or lower body or both. The marker is either white or gold. Not sure how this system works, but I think it changes the look of his super.

[Diveman]

Some new Valkenhayn info from Hima's tweeter, is apparently related to Valken's movement which is kinda different (nerfed?)

とりあえずヴァルケンハインは移動のボタン変更もあるが、狼JA>着地D>2Cとか、ガード入れ人戻りとかが全部ニュートラルDじゃないとダメだから、手癖直しに100クレはないと俺はダメな自信がある。ロケテだけで対応するのは流石に厳しいなー。

If someone could translate properly, I can't make out some of the things he says here.

"There are changes Valkenhayn's movement, but WJA > land D > 2C and alike, blocking and turning back to human must be neutral D. So if I can't get over my habits I have confidence that I can play him. It is a little too hard to cope with it during just a loketest."

[HiagoX]

There's some Makoto loketest info compiled here.

[Akira-Shiro]

Carl Fermata minimum damage buffed from 900=>1.2k

[Jackie Chandler]

I'm not sure what it's formally called, but there should probably be mention of Platinum's new item, the present. It's shown in the trailer at 2:16 here. It's also worth noting that Platinum has three presents left when there's one on the ground, which probably implies she gains four to use whenever she loads the item.

[xlolxlolx]

if you use a move with same move proration twice in a combo "same attack combo" shows up on the screen

[Skye]

Arakune

5d no longer jump cancellable
5b and 6b no longer jump cancellable on block
2b > 2a gatling gone
2b > 5b gatling added
j.c > j.d gatling gone

[Isuna]

I'm not sure what it's formally called, but there should probably be mention of Platinum's new item, the present.

Oh yeah, forgot that one. The presents act likes mines and activates when opponent is on them, an attack springs out of it. It seems to activate even if opponent is teching, missing them. I think it quite good damage.

I was looking at the Japanese BBS, and found some new stuff:

Relius

• 22A/B/C, the projectile is in fact low, but has slow start-up.
• 6B>6C gatling removed

Also I forgot to mention yesterday that Ragna's Dead Spike now spawns from the sword and moves forward, instead of appearing from the ground. It looks ridicolous and it seems to miss opponent in corner combos, but its range is longer.

Edit: Also It's not over yet doesn't give stagger anymore! It throws opponent far away. I think it still is possible to rapid to dash 5C. It corner bounces, so I guess it i still useful in corner.

[SoWL]

A friend of mine pointed out this great Bullet write-up, so I couldn't walk away without translating it:
http://jbbs.livedoor.../1344171071/142

5A, 2A – the usual jabs
6A – an overhead, similar to Bang’s 5C
2B – the usual low-hitting kick
5B – a kick, similar to P4U Naoto’s 5B
6B – a kick upwards
5C – a fiery strike forward, may be FC
2C – a long-reaching kick, probably hits low
6C – an ankle strike
3C – a kick after a short delay, hits low

jA – the usual punch
jB – a kick, similar to Hazama’s jB
jC – a strike with both legs, floor-bounces on counter-hit

Drive: Lock-On
Generates a ring around Bullet.
The ring follows the enemy and hits them when they get into it.
If it hits the enemy, Bullet enters the Heat-Up state. It makes the ring bigger and changes some of the moves’ properties.
There seems to be 2 or 3 levels of Heat-Up.

5D – hits mid, but the start-up is very fast
2D – hits low
6D – an overhead
jD – a dive kick, Bullet falls to the ground along with the enemy

Wadcut Engage
A follow-up for the D attacks, blows the enemy away with fire. If it hits, it raises the Heat-Up level. Wall-bounces on counter-hit.

236A – Flint Shooter
Spinning fireball shot. It charges for a moment, and then explodes.

623B – Cutting Shear
A command grab. Seems to have some start-up invul.

41236B - Miquelet Capture
A running grab. Covers about half a screen.

(j)623C – Snap Hans Fist
Bullet makes a low jump and grabs the enemy in midair.

214D – Afterburner
Bullet wraps herself in flames and gains the Heat-Up state.

2363214C – Rage Aggressor
May lack invul frames, since it got interrupted with a jab. Probably can’t follow it up with a combo?

Her regular throws can’t be combo’ed from, but you can follow it up with 5B in the Heat-Up state.

Alas, no info on the seven-spin super yet.

[Skye]

Arakune

5d > 3c gatling added.

[Skye]

Arakune.

2c multihits now
A bug is summoned behind the opponent now (need better translation/could be wrong)
5D has repeat move proration, now dash cancellable (?)
f.g knocks down (?)
j.a can pick up from j.d (???)
3c has an altered hitbox

Feel free to offer a better translation.

http://jbbs.livedoor.../1323941831/l50

[Isuna]

Arakune.
A bug is summoned behind the opponent now (need better translation/could be wrong)

I can confirm that one bug appeared from behind and bouncing on the floor before hitting opponent.
By the way, I think 6D lost it hitbox again, at least 2C doesn't chain into 6D.
