Soul Calibur 5 Guest/Bonus/CAS Character Discussion

I agree, I just thought to mention it because I never new what became of it. Ezio is enough on his own but at least one more guest Character would be nice. Perhaps like the bonus characters in SCIV only with their own voice/weapon style.

honestly i hope not
We got a guest
For one time is cool and fit
That's enough imho,i hope they use left slots remaining to put in true SC characters
 
Yea I guess i'm not really being true to my point, I like guest characters but they should just be a nice addition and not take away from the series characters (balancing, bringing more importance to their character and tweaking I mean).

1. First off that is older Ezio so with age comes skill (I guess i didn't watch it)
2. I have seen some of his moves like the two vertical sword swings and its hell unsafe if side stepped(not sure on block) and i have almost an eternity to do what ever i want once he misses one swing. He has a couple more slow moves that look cool but if they whiff kiss your ass goodbye.

All that holds true to what i said about him being sloppy with his attacks which is probably why you have to be precise while playing him. If you played the games you would know so don't rely on cutscenes please and thank you.
 
Is simple because sword attacks are a minor part in his SCV moveset,and are supposed to be slow but powerfull (so are not to use at random,but in particular situations),where most of his moves are made with wrist blades,wich are very fast,various and reactive

About the AC part,the game is sloppy,his combat system is sloppy. Ezio concept is't about being sloppy or weak in direct fight. Use the sloppy game engine to judge a char is logic bs,so the cutscene show how Ezio is supposed to move/fight in his creators mind, the character concept
 
He has that slow ass wrist blade stab where he swing his arms in and out too and maybe that shoulder tackle also, you may be able to jump over his roll attack afterwards or punish it with a 2A. Just an observation i haven't played it yet.

AC combat system is not about swinging anyway its about countering your opponents moves and in AC:Brotherhood that was some of the most fluid gameplay i had outside of a fighting game in recent memory.

Which is why i already knew before hand that he wasn't gonna be Natsu fast and I'm happy about it. They stayed true to his style even in the way you should approach fights with him but to say he isn't sloppy is wrong.
 
I really hope they don't add any more guest characters to take up a slot in the roster. I'm perfectly accepting of Ezio anything else they might add would ruin it...they might make an alt. costume for ezio in altair's armor though. I wouldn't mind that.

but yeah no more guest characters...and I think it was even confirmed that we would not be having any more guests (by Tago). so why bother trying to say who we want and who would fit when the decision has already been made? are people just in denial? or in a state of hope that something else will appear. be happy with Ezio and that we didn't/don't get guest characters from galaxies far far away.

as far as bonus characters go does anyone know a list of the artists in charge of drawing for the game. We could look at previous work by them and see if we will be getting any bonus characters in that way. actually do we have any proof that we will be getting bonus characters in this game at all?

cas characters seem like we will get to fight a bunch in the actual story mode. wonder if any of those might be given formulas.
 
SCV will have bonus characters I have no doubt about that. I hope they are more complete styles than in sc3, there were a few that were very tourney capable I.E Lynette But some were just not very good at all...

I know they will have bonus characters because of the fact damp is being released as DLC. I doubt they would make a non guest character dlc, and be a main character in the story. I can't wait to see what we get!

The bonus characters for SCIV were done by guest artists who didn't do any other work for the game. If there are bonus characters again, we'll probably see the same thing. Guest artists doing new characters. Unless the bonus characters this time are just pre-made custom characters, reused from other modes, like most SCIII ones.

Truth be told, as a character I didn't find him that interesting. I've just built my own cross haven't I..? He does have that Halo effect, I'm rather sick of the Master Chief being on
everything. (What must I do for a Halo, COD or Battlefield free bag of chips or soda these days)

Funny, I agree with you. And what Gatsu said above. I've only played the first Assassins Creed, but I thought it was good, what would happen if you were put in a sword fight in real life. If its your actual ass on the line, you'll hang back, block, and wait for an opening, and take full advantage when the opening comes.

Truth to be told, I hate cloud. He doesn't deserve his worship imo. There are other badass characters in fiction that people need to hear about.
I only like Chief in "Arby n' the chief"

Like Jon Snow, Henrietta, Danerys Targeryen, Atlas, Triela, Tyrion Lannister, Lisbeth Salander (off the top of my head, probably because they're what I've read or played most recently).

Actually, Lisbeth Salander is about to get a LOT more popular (at least here in the USA).

EvilBEGONE, Never seen 'Arby n' the Chief,' I'll give it a look though. Also, the early Red vs Blue's are funny.

And speaking of Triela, I should try to make a Custom Character of her.

On that, we can agree. Cloud is what would become the token emo character. Wonder why that is? It is actually somewhat batman's fault.

Not a lot of people realize this, but what they aim for is brooding and not emo. They just go to over board. What they wanted cloud to be was a slightly "edgier" batman. As you can see, they failed miserably.

It's not just Cloud. Everyone from FF7 was nasty except for Aeris and Cait Sith

I could make a comment here about how she (Aeris) just followed Cloud around for his sword and that he failed to give it to her so Sephiroth gave her his instead but that would be mean.

If any final fantasy character would have had a decent (not paste-copy weapon) in Soul Calibur my vote would have went to Yuffie. But I'm glad as hell that no final fantasy characters ended up being guest characters...they for the most part just do not fit in with the world.

As far as bonus characters go I'm kinda hoping they do have some new ones within them.

Honestly, the only accpetable characters in that game were tifa: a strong well made female character with depth and actual Character (gasp!) and vincent: why? Simply put, he has the mysterious thing going for him. Out of the 2 batman wannabes he pulls it off better. Compare him to tifa, he is not well made as a person, but at least he is not an emo, a stereotype, proto naruto or some hick who chucks spears.

I swear if one more person says how much they cried and aeris's death I will stick a blade through their chest. She was your main healer so it did suck but come one already.
 
I'm not crying about her I just said every character in that particular one was nasty except Aeris. Cait Sith did work with the proper set up but his limit break was lame.

Who said I said you were? o.o I was not talking about you in anyway shape or form. It was a broad statement to thos who do so chill xD.

As for every character was nasty except for her I still disagree with that statement. Aeris was a one dimensional character who had neither the time nor ability to be fully fleshed out. Tifa, on the other hand, was very well made. She showed depth, growth and a fully realized ending point to her growth. The only thing I do not like about her is that she has horrid taste in men XD.

Enough about FF. We are talking soul cal here people!

Then why bring up anything about people crying over her and I don't give a flying fuck about story/character progression. I was strictly talking about theis abilities and how they could translate to SCV
