Soul Calibur 6 Discussion

But there was some kind of V-Trigger styled mechanic in the game as far back as July, which could tie into retaining semblances of it and what they could in certain characters. Though I can't say for sure yet if there is definitely a connection between the two, but it would make sense.
> The weapon switch/multiple moveset idea was intentionally meant to be highlighted, exist, and live on in the new character that uses two swords that he can combine together and also fight with that way.

Interesting, and tbh i can't see what they could have done a weapon switch for some characters, the V-trigger mechanics, if it's still a thing could be a more interesting gamedesign direction, since they have more freedom to do what they want for the character and not just limited by the weapon switch.

Really hope they'll do Beta like for Capcom did with SFV, i wanna try this sh*t ASPA!!

I'd like to see a Mace/Lance/Whatever + Tower Shield kind of thing. All of the shields in Soulcalibur are small and light, and while that fits with the game's relatively fast pace, well... I'd like to see what they come up with for a heavier or standard shield.

Side note: it suddenly frustrates me that aPat's Soulcalibur changes forms, when his original form already had a scabbard he could've drawn from...

A mace and shield character would be cool or a flail and shield like the Conqueror from For Honor.

What weapon did Rock use? He used a two-handed Mace right? I think they could have done a lot more than grappling for him, but that's just me.

 

[Menace]

A giant mace, yeah.

 

[minimaxi]

If Daishi was given time to finish the game it would have been the best in the series.

To me it already is (mechanically), but I only started playing seriously from 3

 

[Darkmoonlight]

A giant mace, yeah.

A mace and shield would be super interesting imo.

Does anyone miss the crouching throws that some characters had like Cassandra and Xianguha? I really want to see a female grappler but I'll hold my breath.

Rock originally used an axe from Soul Blade to SC1. It wasn’t until 3 he switched to a giant mace.

The last thing I want to see is Siegfried going from his big ass sword to Xianghua's chinese sword. Maybe him switching to Hilde would be cool lmao.

Lol imagine Sieg using Hilde's style while wielding his zweihänder and Hilde's lance at once

lmao XD or Viola getting Dampierre's weapons

Hopefully

What if the entire roster consists of mimics? What moveset would they actually end up using!?

 

[JohnMcKee]

Anyone getting Voldo's!

Everyone mimics Viola's orb

The bare hand moveset from SE.

Thats the question i ask myself all day long.

I feel like we're discovering some kind of dark secret here. Is Harada's master plan to change SC into Tekken!?

 

[Mage]

I love going to bed and waking up the next morning to 5 or 6 more pages of this beautiful info/speculation, as previously said it feels so weird actually hear stuff about SC.

 

[nickbulamadim]

@Vergeben Can you give us any information or a clue about the other new character at the moment?
Like was that character ever mentioned before on the artbook or on earlier installments?

It's a bit more.... straightforward than that. I don't know how to throw out teases about the character without it being completely or nearly obvious. lol

Since I've only played SC V, I have to ask: what's Dampierre's situation among fans? Is he well liked and would he be missed if he simply didn't show up in SC VI?

I never bought the DLC and played him but man does he have an interesting and unique fighting style, I also like his personality.

Its rather neutral id say, people are just bitching because they think he took the place of zas or whatever.
But there sure are characters that the general audience likes more.
