The Official Nightmare Thread for SCV

@Luneth: Siegfried has 17 years more experience now though, and he seems to still have some of SC's power (his CE has him using ice powers). I think that he doesn't need to rely on SC to fight on equal ground with Nighty.

I won't speak for the others, but in my case yes, I know. What about it though? It's as if I were to argue and say "Abyss and Zasalamel is supposedly the same being" when someone wants the former to return, but even though it's true, they were both present in SC3 and played quite differently.

People are talking about the "character" Inferno as the fire creature with random weapons and its unique helicopter moves. It doesn't really matter if he and Nightmare are the same being as both can still be canonically present again (like in SC1), especially since now it has a new host and isn't a "phantom" like in SC3.

I think the return of "Inferno" might be a bit unoriginal though and quite unlikely somehow. It's no big deal with me since I'd think of it as an extra.

To return on topic, I can't help but see that "mouth" on Nightmare's helmet. I personally don't really like that aspect of it, but on a more humor point of view he looks like an evil Optimus Prime.

As for the story, yeah I'm also interested in how the two will interact with each other after 17 years. I also hope that this story mode (developed alongside Cyberconnect2) will have a straightforward "canon" story similar to how it was in MK9, while keeping the arcade mode with the multiple "single character endings". Seriously, seeing Nightmare, for example, in action during story mode cutscenes other than the endings would be a treat.

i get wut u mean i was just making a point that u were playing as him in spirit at least ^^ tho there is still hope that inferno could be a secret boss or that he could be the random character cause i dont think we have a character like olcadan or charade yet.

Oh I see! Well I personally think he doesn't have to be the official random character for SC5 since it always changed from game to game. However, I like the idea of a secret boss because he was indeed kind of one in the SC3 Arcade Edition!

I really wished there were already more gameplay videos of Nightmare. I am so hyped...

EDIT: Wait, there's a new gameplay video in the recent media and according to the comments, Nightmare is used. YES. *goes off to watch it.

EDIT 2: For those who haven't seen it yet:

Nightmare starting at 7:35. agree with Jaxel that he is indeed FAST. His CE is a charge one and seems to have quite some range when charged a bit, unless it's just the camera angle that made the first one seems bigger. It could be a "delay" CE for what I know. I think the first few frames of his CE is a GI as seen near the end of the video.

SWEET SEMEN OF BABY JESUS HIS CE CAN GUARD IMPACT!


...Yeah, I can see Nightmare getting banned. Won't stop me from playing as him. I might even drop Siegfried for him now.
 
So far Project Soul has done a great job with fan feedbacks and such. I think that if there's any characters that need some nerfing, they will be willing to give them additional tests to release a patch later on.
 
A counter CE? Pretty cool
NM looks pretty much unchanged. He's core mechanics are still there. GS and NSS. Aga.
Safer and faster he appears.
 
Is it to early to tell that nightmare SCV is not even ground with sieg anymore he seems better now :P because in my opinion nightmare is better than him now :P
 
The moves look like they have way less range though, which made nightmare way more scary because he seemed to either always be in range or has the ability to close the distance in startling quickness

his dash is still massive in this game, even his backstep has been improved which is a god send. we also need someone to test out if B+K is still around and how much distance does it make.

The range decrease and probably be make up with safer frames but we don't know how safe he is in this game yet.

Exactly. He can play that game even better now cause now unlike before he can also play the "you think I am in range of your attacks? THINK AGAIN!!!" game and his 33B still reachs a fair distance, if not he can use 3AA/44BB or run up and throw or 50/50 33B mixup which he can CE from lol.

And 33B is potentially safe with brave edge. Nice...
 
Nightmare's red mane/hair looks totally unfinished though, it's flapping around like a red blanket right now
 
So Nighty gets a MF CE that has autoGI and fucks you like no other and Sieg gets frost from the fridge! freaking unfair
 
The only time Siegfried was ever cool.

LoL CE has counter gi properties(I assume with the earliest frames)
CE Charges into an unblockable.

Don't get hit by unblockable CE!
