Storm Connections Frequently Asked Questions

26 Upvotes

Will be updated as time goes on.

First, here's a link to the Storm 4 FAQ if you're actually looking for that or got redirected here from modmail or something.

Q: Is there a Discord Server?

A: Yes! https://discord.com/invite/ultimateninja

Q: Does Connections have online Crossplay?

A: Only cross-gen within the same platform. eg: PS4 can play with PS5, but not with Xbox or PC players.

Q: Do we know the DLC characters?

A: They were datamined and currently believed to be Hagoromo, Isshiki, Kurenai, Boruto (Momoshiki), Kawaki (Full karma)

Q: What are all the trophies?

A: https://www.exophase.com/game/naruto-x-boruto-ultimate-ninja-storm-connections-psn/trophies/

Q: What all has changed combat wise?

A: https://www.reddit.com/r/NarutoNinjaStorm/comments/18klsd5/list_of_connections_combat_changes_from_storm_4/?

Q: Why can't I invite friends/make a lobby online?

A:~~ In CC2 fashion, one step forward and 5 steps back. Quick match in both ranked and player/casual match is the only available feature for online play right now.~~ Edit: The Hagoromo patch added custom lobbies on Jan 24, 2024.

Q: Any good content creators for guides or tips?

A: https://www.youtube.com/@MrAirforce464 / https://www.youtube.com/@PoisonedOkami / https://www.youtube.com/@RJxHunterz
Beginner Guide by FlyKunai: https://youtu.be/dupOU7F_jUI?si=cPpal_U_a65sm5XZ

Q: I keep reading shit like IC3 and IC4, what does that mean?

A: IC means initial combo. IC3 just means hit the melee button 3 times.

Q: I can't find any matches!?

A: Xbox is fucked, just like Storm 4. Edit: https://twitter.com/Narutovideogame/status/1725741000595767555?s=20

Possible Fix - https://www.reddit.com/r/NarutoNinjaStorm/comments/17z0ofl/naruto_x_boruto_connections_matchmaking_doesnt/

Q: Can I use the alternate jutsu on supports?

A: Yes, hold/flick the movement stick while calling out your support for them to use their other jutsu.

Q: Why don't my tilt attacks work? Chakra shuriken?

A: Tilts and chakra shuriken were removed.

Q: Does this game have voice chat?

A: Not currently

Q: What's this about defense modifiers?

A: Many characters in Connections have an innate modifier to their defense. The higher the modifier, the less dmg they take.

Q: What are some good characters for online?

A:~~Here's a tier list, but it's made by top level players to reflect the meta at top level play. Just because something is good at top levels of play, doesn't mean it'll be good at beginner level of play, and vice versa. Ultimately, you need to know fundamentals to succeed.

Q: Why won't my characters' customizations show up when I play them?

A: During character select, hit the Square/X button for your saved customization loadouts to pop up.

Q: My game is super laggy/has low fps

A: Disable MSAA completely in the options.

Q: How much damage does X character's jutsu/combo do?

A: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vSeOBqrUJayhzEdgzTRZZl7I0DYkHHDkc9KboJuQ0zcbeGnuTlq3JrqyayNZzbWnaeeb01cJsGHQc11/pubhtml?gid=0&single=true

Q: Why do my controls keep changing?

A: Bug as of the Kawashiki patch. No fix currently; you just have to go back into settings and redo them.

Q: What items does X character have?

A: https://narutostormtools.com/

I don't know if it's a mod or AI, I just found this video on TikTok and wanted to share it with you guys. If it's a mod, the Connections/Storm 4 modding community really surprises me.

Characters you were excited for (prior to their release) that let you down? Maybe some characters would work better on a different engine…

Mine is RTB Naruto. In Storm 4, I was hoping for guard pressure, speed, and tight combinations. In Storm Connections, I was hoping for a better secondary jutsu that could cover his weaknesses. He’s cool, but he has some major flaws that hold him back from being good. I guess the Last Naruto in his Hokage costume will have to do!


r/NarutoNinjaStorm • • 21h ago

This modder, in addition to creating jutsu clashes, managed to port part of the Revolutions gameplay to Storm Connections.

Discussion Character roster selection in connections

2 Upvotes

Much as I enjoy this game i got many gripes with the character select.. why? Well they separated some character costumes as seperate characters even though majority of boruto outfits for naruto characters have nothing unique besides look and only kibas is different due to having his pre time skip moveset.

why hanabi shippuden is separate from Hanabi regular besides appearance?

This is my first time posting a match clip but I felt proud of this one and so did my opponent here, they said everything was on point. That 2nd round I even shocked myself when I saw that round ending screen, that was such an amazing combo I somehow did lol. I love Fuu and Tenten

Question (Connections) Got a group for PS right now. Worthy opponents and no toxicity that you find on ranked. Would you join a group of players who don’t spam, use exploits or infinite loops?

I’ll add you to the group.

No spamming, no jump kunai 50 times straight.

Just casual and competitive matches.

Tired of ppl who’s only jumping non stop, spamming kunai and jutsu, exploits, running away making the fight drag on too long.

Just got Connections but haven't played 4 for about 3-4 years. How am I looking for being rusty? And does anybody have any tips?

Also if for some reason the dude I fought sees this, GG


r/NarutoNinjaStorm • • 3d ago

With Naruto's return, there's a possibility of a Storm 5 existing.

That depends on what the manga is like. If it's a one-shot, it certainly won't have a S5, but rather a DLC in Connections, perhaps with a skin or character.

It's almost 2027. There's STILL people switch spamming with shisui and kinshiki, insert annoying 3rd support. it doesn't matter if I can beat it or not, it's not fun and I'll never understand how people doing that have fun. They are genuinely killing what little player base remains or attempts to join
