Anyone picking up the Hori T7 arcade stick as well?

This stick is very expensive! RM 700+ if not mistaken

I'm going to use back my Tekken 6 HRAP stick for Tekken 7

Sold my HRAP 3 long ago and stopped fighting games for a while. Now coming back to them, I'm debating between the HRAP 4 Kai and the T7.

Alright... game is in my hands. Some early impressions;

Arcade mode is an absolute joke. Each character has like 2 paragraphs of prologue and then a 10 seconds ending which isn't even CG. What makes it worse is that the Arcade mode isn't like before where you choose a character and fight through 10 or so stages to beat the boss at the end. No, it's basically gives you one or two fights based on the prologue scenario for the chosen character and wham, that's it!

There's an actual "story" mode of course and I would say it's passable. Nothing near the likes of Injustice 2 at all though. Also a lot of characters were omitted where as in T6 and T5, almost EVERY character had a role (no matter how silly it was) in the story.

That's my gripe aside, the mechanics is really a return to form. Definitely getting a lot of T5 and T3 vibes here. Playing on the Pro, so it's almost a dead locked 60fps (there are a few drops during stage transitions but since they cannot be interacted with, it's fine). Played a few online matches and the load times are pretty long though, heard there will be a patch to speed things up on this but not sure when that's coming.

Wow Reviewer copy??

Yup.

Really digging the game thus far aside from a few downfalls. While the content is no where near Injustice 2, I think what is available in T7 is adequate.

Now I'm just bracing myself for when the game unlocks for everyone in a few hours, THEN I can judge how well the online will be. At this moment, I'm just getting my ass kicked by people from shoryuken or I'm beating people from IGN (go figure, button mashers).

That's good. I'm waiting for the steam copy. I hope poor ass laptop can handle the graphics.

Already preordered the collector's edition. Can't wait!!

GH is having lucky draw in the morning, fingers crossed if I win something

Well, here's some bad news from my end;

I tried playing for about 2+ hours yesterday night and guess what? Out of 28 matches, I only got into 11 matches without being REJECTED.

Yes, you read that right. The whole ranked match system in T7 online is kind of a silly situation. Because people WILL reject you if you are higher rank than them (like even if you're just one level higher lol) or if they see they are fighting a character they don't like, this takes FOREVER to find a freaking match. Currently, it's a pussified cest pool of players now on ranked matches.

Harada has acknowledged this "issue" and says that they will change it in due time (whenever that is). But honestly, this shouldn't have been an issue in the first place. It's an inherent design flaw that waste people's time.

Hope there's an update in the future

How's the lag and latency?

U r using 100 Mbps unifi line right?

I am using 100 Mbps at home

Don't know when that update is coming. Harada says on his twitter that it is intended so that beginners can play ranked matches.
That makes no sense what so ever when there's a mode for non-ranked match where ALL beginners should go to in the first place lol.

Fairly okay, not IJ2 stable however. But generally playable for most of the matches I've managed not to be rejected in. I'm on a 100mbps line yes.

that 600mb day 1 patch didn't fix that???

Collected my game already

Get ready for the next battle

See u all online

There's nothing to fix, the mode is DESIGNED like that. All Harada said is that they will "adjust" it in due time.

From where??

ohhh got that...I hope they make it like TTT2 matchmaking

From an online seller.. COD at his place.. Hehe
