Did the patch come out yet? If so is there patch notes lying around?

[Kuzu]

You guys realize the patch is only for Arcades and probably won't hit consoles for a few more months right?

 

Speaking of, yo Warp, you should play me

Dunno if this has been already posted, but here's a GDC video of how Arc System achieved the cell shading in Guilty Gear Xrd. Pretty interesting if you ask me. (Thanks Gaf.)

 

 

Note: the video is nearly an hour long. If you've got the time, make sure to pull up a pillow and get comfy.

[Jin.]

Speaking of the steam release, would anyone be interesting in actually getting it and playing it here? I want to get into GG but I've got no PS4, this seems like a solid purchase considering it's my first one.

[Dantemustdie00]

Yay, get to play with my girl Baiken,,y boy Johnny, and my Gear Dizzy......all three of which should've been in Xrd....still salty over that.

[Silencer226]

Got some footage of Jack-O and Johnny guys.

 

 

 

Jack-O is kind of weird, but she looks like she'd be fun to use.  ...If all else fails, nice ass. >.>

[Kuzu]

So Arc Revolution(Japanese tournament for Arcsys' games) revealed the opening to Revelator and a new character...well not new per se:

 

 

 

Also, the Arcade release date is confirmed for August 25th.

[Pompadour]

With the recent Revelator news this past month, looks like this thread needs some updating!

First though… so I’m fairly new to Guilty Gear.  But man, two games in, and I’m already in love. If there’s anything I adore, it’s elaborate over-the-top characters and designs, with fun, confusing cheesy plots that go all out… and Guilty Gear provides just that, and more. I just wish I found out about it sooner.

I’m a pretty casual player though, only playing Xrd with friends on Steam. I do enjoy the fighting mechanics though, and and I absolutely LOVE the visuals. I have never been a fan of cell shaded graphics, but they’re gorgeous here… and STILL trick my eyes into thinking it’s all sprite work. Amazing stuff there.

Of all the characters I’ve played, I seem to be attached to Zato=1/Eddie the most, and Ky close behind. I latched onto Zato just from the character alone, but his fighting style is proving to be one I really like. Plus... I can never seem to escape Takehito Koyasu, no matter where I go. I just have to accept this fact. :')

----

Anyways, I’ve been keeping up with Revelator news, and three new characters have been announced since the last update here. In addition to Johnny, Jack ‘O, and Jam, Dizzy is a confirmed playable character, and will be revealed soon enough. In the mean time, a brand new character by the name of Kun Haehyun has been revealed, appearing as a large, muscular elderly martial artist… who just happens to be a young woman hiding in an artificial body.



I don't even understand, but I love it.

In most recent news - and recent as in "happened just yesterday" - Raven has been revealed to be playable as well. No clear scans yet, but the thumbnail still shows a good bit of info.



From what it sounds like, he's a complete masochist who's gimmick involves his attacks becoming stronger the more he gets hurt. I have no idea how that'll play, but going by these images alone... I think he has an advantage by making every opponent too uncomfortable to even land a hit, haha.

And also yes, that is dizzy's silhouette on the upper-right.

[Pauly-kun]

I was very sure that Raven is the sixth confirmed character, while Dizzy will be the last to be added, I think they want to have the best for the last, due to how complex her animations in 2D were. (Saying that because Sprites are far more complex to do than 3D models.)
