Soul Calibur VI: General discussion

Congrats! I've done this too, and it's a good feeling, but... are you still missing a few titles? I am.

And also this one I'm pretty sure, the orange one, no clue what it is though:

Congrats on the success. Yeah, I'm still missing a few. The same 2 as you, as well as Fu-Ma Shadows and the same one you're mission above Transcendent Blademaster. No idea what it correlates to. I'm guessing they're ones you'd get on a fully evil playthrough? Not sure. I've only done the holy playthrough so far. Although I assume the one related to Nightmare would be the one that was only available during a set point in the storyline. The titles above that would go alongside Absolute Monarch and what-not are for beating Arcade. Wooden for bronze time, the ones like Night Wolf for silver time, and ones like Absolute Monarch are gold as expected. Everything from easy to legendary difficulties.

Fu-Ma's Shadow was a random encounter with Taki I had in the Mediterranean Sea area, while I was exploration traveling here and there and everywhere fighting The Duel and other encounters trying to get Astral Fissures to pop to master all styles. I've done both good and evil routes, and took the evil choice on Nightmare, and I didn't get the Nightmare purple title. The other purple title would appear to be related to Voldo, but I fully did his quest as well, so I don't know what that's about. Thanks for the tip, but I'm aware of the arcade ones being on top that I'm missing, I just haven't gotten around to doing them. The only ones that are mysteries are the three Libra ones. Especially the one above Transcendent Blademaster. Unless it's something like get all the other titles or something like that.

Interesting. I wonder what caused that battle to spawn for Taki. If that level 60 fight with Nightmare wasn't it for his, and I've no idea if I missed anything for Voldo, so either the titles aren't properly unlocking, or else we've somehow managed to miss a few things. Guess Libra's gonna eat more time than I wanted it to.

I can say with complete confidence they stand a much greater chance of getting a season pass purchase from me if the remaining slots are guests rather than any other missing SC character.

One major weakness this roster has is new characters. Usually new games has more fresh faces than this. Guests are essentially new characters if only for a single game but still new. They are like more valuable, less risky versions of new characters.

It’s major weakness, is it’s had to clean up the mess SCV made which seems to be getting there on a lower budget to boot.

Reading your response is giving me the impression you’re quite new to the series?
Problems need to be fixed first before you create “new ones”.

Guests aren’t normally as fleshed as out as the mainstay cast and their appearances are singular to the instalment in question.
2B IS another guest and a smart choice financially.

But depending on guest characters isn’t a good idea.
Soulcalibur really doesn’t need to be an IP Orgy to satisfy casual consumers that’s what CAS is for.
With the pull they have now they can expand on their own merits.

Fleshed out characters that have their own submechanic I.e Yun, Setsuka, Hilde is what the game needs.
I’ve lived on this game since it got released and one thing that has really impressed me is the movesets are really small, but the care and attention that’s been put into how it works makes the game extremely fun to play.

If you want more guests PLEASE for the love of the holy sword, play Smash bros.
 
I met online a Sophie wearing 100% Tira clothes, and even her hear was Tira's. Looked so weird lol

AND AGAIN! are you making lizards with dicks or giving female CAS characters nipples ??? if not YOU ARE GOOD!!! god is it really that hard to understand what is not appropriate. of course they wont say literally "hey guys stop giving your creations dicks!!!" because they assume we understand what "appropriate" is.

Cool so i'm still allowed:
My stero-type black character called 'CrimePays'
My huge ugly hairy male character dressed as a female called 'TypicalTrans'
My white skinhead neo-nazi character with a swassticka tattoo on his chest called 'holocauster'
Thanks for clearing that up for me my dude

Yes, I have made a non-erect nude male and nude female who both look beautiful and realistic in design. My question is - does it say in the terms and conditions that nudity from their CaS system is unacceptable? Yes, I know that common knowledge would be that you can't have nude characters online in a game that doesn't list it in its rating, but it seems reasonable to allow us to create what we want given their flexible system.
 
Having trouble with a mission. It's the one where you defeat a gang or something. Have to fight two skeletons before fighting a sorceress. It says I can't defeat enemies until I'm soul charged. Now the bar is filled up and I activated soul charge, but anytime I try a soul charge move... it doesn't work..

Ugh. Any help?
 
You don't need to use Soul Charge moves iirc, just be in Soul Charge. As for why SC moves aren't going off, I guess just double-check your inputs? There is some extreme input buffering going on so it's probably causing that.
 
Regarding Dampieree - I won't miss him if he never returns, as I don't really like joke characters and would prefer if resources would be used to add more classic/new/guest characters to the game instead. BUT they must add all his equipment to the CaS at some point: top hat, mustache, everything.
About DLC - I don't think they would add new cannon characters through that, why do that if they can be saved for SCVII (also I doubt that we'll get all veterans back too for the same reason - they need stuff left for SCVII) and on top of that are not guaranteed to sale unlike guests and veterans?
Also, even though I would always prefer a returning character to a guest, I wouldn't mind a full guest SP if those guests will be fitting within SC world and their styles are usable in CaS. I mean, it certainly could help the sales looking at how some people reacted "now I'm buying this game" to 2B and we need that for SCVI to not be the end of the legend of souls and swords.

Well the bar is yellow, so it's activated. But when I hit my opponent he doesn't die. And that's by not using soul charged moves.

He's down to 0 health as well...

"Your soul gauge fills more quickly, but you cannot defeat an opponent unless soul charged. Defeat all opponents!"

I feel like an idiot playing this game. Even looking at the moves list, it's all so confusing.

You have to enter the soul charge state and hit them while in soul charge with any attacks. To enter soul charge you need to have three full bars press your super atrack thing button while holding away from your opponent on the directional pad.

You'll know your in soul charge because your weapon will start glowing your alignment color and your soul charge bar will change color and start draining.

Three full bars makes a soul charge? So not just one? How do I get three full bars, I can only get it to two. My sword is glowing my alignment color and the bar is yellow at "2" bars.

https://gyazo.com/125262018cf1024512fa666ad945c3e9 Like Sophitia's here? That just means you have metre (2 full bars), but you're not using it.

In this picture, you can see how Mitsu's bar is now whitish blue and his weapon is glowing:

https://gyazo.com/ee177d78de1df1c9ce7614272f5075a2
This means Mitsu is Soul Charged, which as Ardenwolf said, is activated by pressing 4+ABK, or away from your opponent + Critical Edge button.
Also when Ardenwolf said you need "3 full bars" I believe they were talking about the singular segments of the bar/metre, so confusion is now occurring based on terminology so let's clean this up:

A bar/metre is the thing that fills with green over the course of the fight. When you reach 2 full bars/metres it caps out and becomes yellow. This means nothing other than it's full and can no longer be gained until you spend some. Ardenwolf meant that you need 1 full metre to use Soul Charge (1 metre is made of 4 segments).

Any attack while in this mode should kill your opponent provided it does enough damage, it's not a case of "they have full life but one soul charged move will kill them".

If you're meeting all these conditions but still having the issue, reply back and we'll explore further options. For now it seems you're a bit confused on whether or not you're actually soul charged. Which character do you play?

Some people do refer to the segments of the metre as bars, but since other people use bar/metre interchangeably it can lead to this kind of situation, thus I refer to the smaller bits as segments rather than bars. Spares everyone really.

Bruh if you think a nazi symbol is "appropriate" then you deserve a ban and Bamco is totally in their right to ban your ass. its not a hard concept like i said they are not gona explain what "appropriate" is cus when you bought the game you should be old enough to understand that making racist symbols and giving characters genitals is not "appropriate".

in other words BE NICE AND JUST DONT BE A DICK IF YOU DONT WANT A BAN!!!

Yeah no, i'm not dealing with this bullshit of page after page on this thread of people telling me "she's in get over it" or "its what is best for the series". Conveniently drawing a line that ends with 2B and ONLY 2B. A fucking technological android gets shoehorned into a medeival fantasy game and dont even get me started on the balance implications of her pod and how the hell that will work. Clearly NB crossed a line and said "Fuck it, we need those sales." Well guess what kids? If i gotta look forward to swarms of 2B online, you can deal with your mains not making the roster in season 1.

From a business perspective it could make sense to prioritize pulling as many people as they can from outside first, THEN worry about missing favorites. Separating them like that would increase their chances of selling more season passes and DLCs in general i think.

Because hey, you know... its more money for them and its what is "best for the series".
