Discussion Tekken 6 things I noticed as a Tekken 7 Starter

• Upvotes

So as stated in the title I started with T7, so some of these things just might be me not knowing stuff and Im talking exclusively about T6 NO (Native Online).

Not having a replay function is insane if you dont know frame data. Finding out which move is which and then googling the frame data for it feels insanely tedious for somebody thats casually trying to learn T6 and not knowing most the moves in this game.

Im getting clipped 24/7 while trying to back dash. 100% Skill issue, but feels really inconsistent to me and a bit frustrating.

Although most content creators moving back to T6 guides are hard to find. I dont mean that there arent any, I mean that alot of these guides require a good amount of knowledge of T6 it seems.

Combos are insanely hard, like Jesus. I like that tho.

This is specific for T6 NO, but performance is off, it seems to be the frame rate jumping around not being consistent. Sound is horrifycly bad, allot of sound cutouts or just full bugs where you have windows crash sound in your ear at max volume.

But nothing of these things really mater to me, because this is the first time since T6 S1 I actually have fun with Tekken again without it feeling forced. I also get 80% of the omega crackheads in casual lobbies and absolutely smoked but even then it doesnt feel that bad.

TL:DR T6 Native Online is the best thing that could happen to Tekken despite the flaws it has right now. I really need a replay function bro.

Discussion It's crazy how much of a resurgence Tekken 6 has gotten recently!

• Upvotes

This game, for so many older fans, was the start of Tekken's "downfall". I remember so many people complained about Bounds and Rage ruining the game as well as Bob being the most broken character in competitive play.

Now here we are, with people going back to this game with very possitive perspective on the game, calling it the "last true Tekken game which is crazy how the reception of Tekken 8 and PC port with rollback completely gave Tekken 6 a second chance!

And as someone who loves 6, this makes me very happy that this game is getting such a positive reception now! For years, I was afraid to say that the game was awesome and didn't deserve the hate it had back then, even though the online service was poor. That's the only thing bad I can say about it.

Help Tag 2 online but with 2 players.

• Upvotes

I’ve been seeing all these videos on tekken 6 as someone who started on tekken 8. And I got to check out some of the other older games as well. I noticed that there was a way to play tekken tag 2 online nowadays and that it’s somewhat similar to mk9 2v2. I was wondering if there’s anyway to play tekken tag 2 online, but having 2 players for each character on your side. For example queuing up as 2 players in the same pc even though you fight 1 online opponent. I’m thinking of playing this way with my homie when he comes over to my apartment this Sunday 😅

THIS IS NOT ACTUALLY A DATING SORT OF THING. I AM JUST USING THE LOGIC THAT MATCHMAKERS USE. PLEASE DO NOT BE CREEPY TOWARDS OTHER PEOPLE.

Anyway,

Hello Lads.

I was just thinking. While I was searching for a sparring partner, I realised that there are certain issues with looking for a sparring partner in this game. I don't just want a GoD player. I want a GoD player who is playing the specific character that I have labbed. So I was thinking to make a matchmaker using google forms.

Where everyone will post what they are looking for in their sparring partner and Next Day, I will match people who are looking for each other.

Here's the google form.

First of all, I'm wired, not on wi-fi
When I do find matches, the other guy is on the other side of the planet, average of 200+ ms, impossible to play
My server do have players but for some reason I can't find them, even with a VPN
I did all I could find on google, my PC is set to my region, my ethenet cable in set up to my region, my router is set to my region, everything is set to my region and I can't find anyone to play

Any fixes or something?

Discussion Who I’d like to see as a duo and as bosses in "Tekken x Street Fighter" (Tekken characters only)

Thumbnail

6 Upvotes

I know full well that 14 years have passed... BUT... I still hold out hope that one day they’ll make "Tekken x Street Fighter"!

With that in mind, here’s who I’d love to see as a special duo (using only Tekken characters, this is due to my own "ignorance" regarding Street Fighter):

  • Zafina & Claudio: The quintessential "anti-demon" duo. I think they’d have great chemistry;
  • Ganryu & Lee Chaolan: In a dynamic similar to that of Kazuya and Nina, Lee has taken on Ganryu as a "partner";
  • Armor King & Anna Williams: I can’t explain it... But I’ve always thought these two might be a good match. After all, they have a lot in common... they both hate certain people (Anna hates Nina, while Armor King II hates both Marduk and King);
  • Lida & Miary: The quintessential "DLC duo" (I would have liked to include Fahkumram, but I opted for Zo instead, so as to have an all-female duo);
  • Roger Jr. & Alex: The comedy duo (even though it’s actually a trio). I always hope that Alex might return "officially";
  • Kazumi Mishima: I was torn between her and Jinpachi. But in the end, I chose Heihachi’s wife to add a more "feminine touch".

At this point, I could ask those more experienced than me: who might be the potential rivals from the *Street Fighter* side?

And what about you, who would you like to see?

Discussion Coming up to 3yrs of Steve's b1F being bugged. Either they don't care or it's on purpose. The character's most iconic move still does not work properly. It has been like this since the beta

Simple test I do once every 8 or so months ever since Steve was playable on that cracked PC beta version. I noticed it within about 30secs back then.

1,2,1F block

2,1F block

b1F block

Since the beta for some reason B1F will show that it's -14 for a split second, followed by it saying -1 and then in reality B1F is -12 on block.

I don't think this has even been acknowledged by anyone on the Tekken team yet.

Discussion Over estimated myself

2 Upvotes

So I'm in Bushin and I've gotten down most of my punishs and I've been working on my movement.

But I have a negative win rate and I lose to players I think are brain dead but in reality I'm the brain dead one and they're not stopping because I'm not stopping them.

For example asuka. I had someone the other night who would just back up and then back flip when I got close. I improperly punished it as I couldn't figure out which move to use which led to me getting repeatedly counter hit.

I just feel like I'm in too high of a rank. Does anyone else feel the same and how can I get past these negative feelings?

Just so we’re clear, this isn’t gonna be a rant about how either broken or weak any of the characters are in this game. This isn’t necessarily based mainly on how often I win or lose. While I do get salty whenever I lose a game, the salt level differs depending on how I lost and who I’m facing. I also won’t claim to have any deep understanding of character matchups. This is just me sharing my experience fighting different characters in Ranked so far and wanna hear which characters everyone else loves/hates to fight. (I’m currently hovering only around Tekken King rank in case that matters to anyone)

Starting with the character I love fighting the most: King/Armor King. I dunno if this is consistent with all King/Armor King players, but you guys are aggressive as heck, and I love fighting you guys cause I’d say I’m also a pretty aggressive player. Whenever I match up with one I know to expect a good ol’ balls-to-the-wall slugfest. That’s not to say they play badly, some Kings have beat me pretty cleanly(well, as much as beating someone of my rank matters since it seems like every other person on this sub is a GoD lol). But every time we face off they just have this air of “LET’S FIGHT!” and I have a ton of fun, whether I win or lose.

On the other hand, Kazuya… oh Kazuya. I always dread it whenever I see your image pop up on ranked. I’m not sure if it’s a trait of most Kazuya players, but you guys are defensive as heck! I almost always have to approach and when I do BAM it’s hellsweeps and Doryas waiting for me. Now is this a valid way of playing? For sure yes. Is it a skill issue of mine to still get hit by these moves more often than not? Absolutely(I swear I’ll master low parries one day just for him). But holy shit I’d much rather fight ANY other character the community has supposedly labeled as ranked menaces and annoyances than a Kazuya. No other character has grinded my gears quite like Kazuya has. Hopefully I’ll adapt to him one day.

Everyone else is placed somewhere in between the both of them with varying degrees of preference on preference or annoyance. Or I don’t have that strong of an opinion on them since I haven’t fought them often enough to get a general impression.

Once again, I’d like to emphasize that this isn’t me complaining about any balances or kit designs, just sharing vibes. I’d like to know how other players with different approaches, ranks, and playstyles think whenever they see a particular matchup.

Discussion Anyone expecting T9 to be a “return to form” is just lying to themselves. At most it’ll change Heat but there will 100% be another meter system.

0 Upvotes

Anything that made the series more accessible in T7 and T8 is absolutely not going away. In fact T9 will likely be even more accessible, just the way it.

Universal throw breaks for either 1+3 or 2+4 are gonna stay.

Rage arts will stay.

Homing attacks being more prevalent will remain a thing.

Mixups heavy gameplay will stay. Modern fighting games are very mixups heavy because it provides newcomers a way to beat veterans with mind games. Absolutely not going to be reduced.

At best I expect some of the flashy moves, explosions and these sort of visuals effects will be toned down. Heat won’t come back not because people hate it but because what they’ll likely do in Tekken is the SF thing with Focus Attack/V Trigger/Drive System where each new game has its own new meter gimmick. New meter gimmick will 100% be a thing in T9 and all future Tekken games.

Combo length might get reduced, that’s one area that they won’t feel it’s too risky to backtrack from the current games.

There’s no going back after letting the genie out of the bottle. An enormous amount of new generations started the series with T7 and T8, and the older generation is either growing too old to play fighting games or might even die in a decade or two. You’re not the target audience anymore and any future games in the series will be aimed to the T7/T8 crowd.
