Is anyone else noticing their posts being deleted?

All I did was to tell people not to put all their bets on the leaks. Vergeben isn't an all knowing god. If we believe everything before it's confirmed you only set yourself up for disappointment (AKA nintendo switch owners)

The mods have been getting stricter about off-topic or what could be seen as such when there are dedicated topics for those types of things, but I never saw the full post you made that got deleted so I have no idea the context.

Like I told people before and continue to stress, if it doesn't come from my main SCVI source, then take it with a grain of salt.
The Switch source I had I ditched after they claimed it would happen, didn't, then stuck to it still happening and nothing was said by last month.
I figured there was no point in remotely bothering to give them attention passed that point.
The best I can say about that is they might have actually even knew SCVI was a thing, but was trying to rally people into port begging for it since they didn't hear of a Switch version. To their credit, using me to do that for them worked. lmao
People were disappointed, pissed, and still continue to ask if and when that can be a thing.
Mission accomplished if I was simply a cog in their wheel.

As for this supposed former employee and their "leak".... like I continue to try and stress, take it with a grain of salt, but keep it in mind until I hear anything that can confirm or deny any of the contents of what they sent me.
 
Well when they is something as sexy as Zas doing his win pose looking like a boss how can I not lol

This winpose is so sick and so... Zasalamelish. I was honestly secretly a little bit worry that they won't made him right if he's back, since he wasn't in SC since a while i though they would forgot about him and his personality, seems i was totally wrong and i'm glad i was XD

If Setsuka will come back i can't imagine how amazing she will be.

Hi mate - what’s the ‘former employee’ leak I’ve seen mentioned? Apologies, but can you point me to where it’s detailed, or let me know the general gist?

Also, did you have a view on the 4chan leak?
 
Just nervous about Cassandra. I’m a filthy casual and I’ll admit it but even a small roster size has me nervous. More so if Lizardman comes back with S&S too instead of the two axes. DLCervantes and possibly Raph are also questionable at best. Other things should ideally make up for my main concerns so far.
 
I must say from all the gameplay I've seen so far I do love the amount of heart and care put into the game so far. From how the characters interact with each other in and out of the game, to how looks and plays. Its like they are really trying to win back the people who dropped off the series and it feels like a huge love letter to fans.
 
Zasalamels 66BB is that ridiculous rage drive/wager move so I'm quite fearful that it may not be comboable or second hit low.

He still has BT B+K mix up so there's that

Also the animation for 3AB is different and pulls them close leaving him in BT

Also he has Abyss 22AB and A+B
 
Hi all.

As Silent_Joel mentioned, Namco were kind enough to give us some time with the current 6-character build of SCVI on Wednesday.

I mainly focused on Xianghua and have posted some of my findings in her dedicated thread.

Tonight we'll figure out how we're going to update you guys with more general info, possibly in a podcast.

We didn't find out as much as we'd hoped for, but we still have some details re: first impressions, feel, system.

I will probably post it too once I get a chance.

For now I will just say that the game feels really satisfying, it's clear that they have built it with the community demands firmly at the front of their design choices, and that I think fans of SCII are really going to like this game.

I'd describe it in its current shape as SCIV characters in the SCV engine with SCII feel and emphasis on movement.

How are the character movelists? Are they minimal due to the lack of A+K moves, or at least more extensive than SCV's?

Me and Hyrul (@Age_of_Truth ) got invited to Namco UK yesterday to try out the latest build of SCVI (longest 2 weeks wait of our lives). Capped some matches below, not as much as we’d like but still something. Gameplay isn’t the best unfortunately due to some problems with the controller inputs but enjoy anyway. We might do a podcast or something to go over our thoughts etc.


Best set of SCVI media so far, thanks guys. Hope to play with you guys again soon, we haven't played since SCIV!
 
You know alot is being discussed on dlc character posibilitys and so on , but nobody has said anything about this “Zoro” guy and if “2b” actually make it how there all fighting with kitanas am i not correct? We already have “Mitsu”
I thought there bringing in variety no matter how they fight what there using as a weapon is where the variety should be. I would like to see each charachter using his/her own unique weapon.
This is their opportunity to bring the pain even with weapons thinking out the box. Viola zwei was an example of that thinking. Make a character that uses only a shield that transitions from shield to weapon on the fly or chains n sickle. Just saying im looking forward on variety all this talk of samurai type characters has me like aaahhh.

2B's main weapon is a katana but she can use others as well in the game. Her gameplay could be very interesting in SC6.

Well you know 2B is all about weapon switching she doesn't wield only a katana, even thouth she is mostly represented that way. In Nier she uses katanas, 2h swords her fists ,spear (and I think that's all) and she can smoothly transition from one weapon to another

Having the same weapon doesn't mean having the same fighting style. There are already examples of this in past games. Raphael plays different from Amy and Sophitita, Cassandra, and Patroklos play nothing alike.

Something else too, is that Zolo and 2B aren't typical katana users. 2B also uses longswords, spears, combat bracers, and her pod, while Zolo uses 3 blades at once. They wouldn't simply copy Mitsu. 2B might be closer to Ezio, in terms of having multiple weapons

My concern is why we push towards these weird guest characters that dont even fit in the universe. Out if all the possibilities you guys want a character from the year 3000 like really, if there was that one thing that literally sucks you out of the story, its putting 2B in the 16th century.


I would have preferred a character from Tekken or Street Fighter and just call it a day.


They should give you the "parts" to make the guest character in Create-A-Soul like in Soul Calibur 3.

Zoro is literally a pirate swordsman, how the hell does that not fit in the universe? Also, what exactly is the problem with characters that stand out, "fitting" is not an excuse, anyone can literally fit if they give any good explanation, which, considering the characters aren't canon, is very easy.
 
You know who fits pretty well? A resident Witcher.

anyone can literally fit if they give any good explanation,
That's not at all what he means by fitting. Plot makes 0 incentive for guests. He means aesthetically and mechanically. 2B is an android. Zoro is from an anime. Neither of which are too intertwined with SC.

My personal issue with Zoro isn't him fitting (he fits pretty well imo), it's that I don't care for him in the slightest.
