[VicKing]

Very Well I Like the changes with BB3. But i ask when will we see a more unpredictable AI?

The game really feels like it's coming together now!!

Now the only characters left are Robo-Fortune and (maybe) Fukua.

The AI will only consider using a BB3 if you have been HIT, or you are BLOCKING A HIT.

Note that the chance for which the AI will activate BB3s is dramatically increased when you are blocking a hit compared to being hit directly. What does this mean for gameplay? Here are some key highlights:

- A true universal counter play now exists against BB3s from the AI: Don't get touched!
- "Turtling" behind your block is much less effective.
- Proactive players who bring the fight to their opponent will be considerably less likely to be hit by BB3s.
- No more BB3 activation from fullscreen before you have a chance to do something.
- NO MORE BB3 ACTIVATIONS FROM FULLSCREEN BEFORE YOU HAVE A CHANCE TO DO SOMETHING.

Does "blocking a hit" also apply to projectiles (Special Moves, last hit of Peacock's ground combo) ?
If so there is still a chance to get bb3'd from full screen without a chance to do anything against it

Agreed man, I am especially thrilled that they picked the Xbox & PS3 colour.

 

[You cant beat D]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS
This fixes so many issues, and i love that the block proficiency debuff idea that me and some guys in the discord talked about became a real thing! Ms fortune looks insane, can't wait to try her out! You guys are doing gods/goddess work, the game wouldn't be the same if we had any other team behind it, thank you so much!

I couldn't agree more, only I would prefer to say that God is helping them make this masterpiece game come true

 

[TasiaChaan]

When is the Maintenance notification will come?

 

[Papyrus1910]

September 24th means tomorrow YEEHAW

 

[Beldr447]

September 24th means tomorrow YEEHAW

They said week of September 24th not September 24th.
She could come the 26 or 27

 

[Kassem Shour]

I have around 8000 theonite crystals ready to be spent on Ms Fortune, I hope that I will get a gold amongst them.

 

[Midnighte]

I'm most excited abt changing your profile fighter so that i can finally not have Cerebella on it being all smug lol

 

[Luke]

That once per combo have been bothering me and I finally know why. So peacock MA special feature is now effectively unusable? Because cool down reset means “spamming” 2-3 special moves in a roll.

So elemental essences can now be bought, or is that still a percentage chance? Kinda undermines the grind a lot of players are doing and have done, doesn't it? Also afraid that it's going into that "p2w" space...
