This patch brings updated animations for a number of characters and substantial gameplay balances.
Read the full detail changelog here.
Character Animations
Roy and many character animations in the game have been improved.
Turn Animations
Characters now turn when they are crossed up.
Start Distance
Decreased the distance that players start from each other, still generally out of strike range.
Push Back
Decreased push back speed factor, characters will push back slightly slower (same total distance, spread out over more frames).
Damage
Adjusted damage scaling:
- Old: [1.0, 0.8, 0.6, 0.5, 0.4, 0.3]
- New: [1.0, 0.85, 0.7, 0.55, 0.4, 0.3, 0.2]
Falls off slightly slower but has a greater max reduction.
Camera
Adjusted battle camera movement for less vertical movement (when characters are airborne) but while also tilting up a bit more, should be an improvement and look more smooth.
Meter
T-meter is no longer gained by a constant amount. First bar comes faster than before, second bar slightly faster, third bar slower.
Attack Translation Scale
Increased the attack translation scale value from equal push, to favoring the attacker. This is a value that determines how far to push both characters when they come in physical contact while one is in an attack. Previously set to 0.5 so that both characters are pushed the same (effectively disabled, same as normal behaviour). Set to 1.0, the non-attacking character will be pushed for the full amount and the attacker will be pushed none. Will look substantially improved using moves that have a lot of movement point-blank.
Throw Stun Invul
Increased throw stun invul from 3 to 4 frames. Characters coming out of hit / block stun, air resets, or getting up from a knockdown will have an additional frame of not being able to be thrown. Because of this, using a 4f move while being pressured should always allow the defender to defeat a throw instead of losing to it.
Resets
- Decreased juggle value to zero - resets will always hit
- Decreased corner push back - easier to stay in / cross under in the corner
- Adjusted reset arc - slightly more frames higher up but harder to cross under low
ATC
- Now moves slightly forward on use during active / followthrough, has no net movement change if fully recovers
- Increased meter gain on success
DTC
Now moves slightly forward on use.
JTC
- Restricted input to only MP + MK, can no longer hold a direction
- Adjusted movement for both hop / dash versions
- Adjusted active frame hit boxes and duration
- Adjusted hit boxes
- Adjusted advantage
Air Normals
Disabled lower-body hurt box during startup state of all airborne normals.
Ground Normals
Rebalanced frame advantage for many normals (DTC included) in order to significantly reduce the amount of -4, -1, +1, and +4 situations. These moments are a bit of a grey area at the moment where the advantaged player is forced to choose their fastest attack (4f attack) in order to get the punish, interrupt, frame trap, or combo. Most of these situations have been adjusted into -5, -2, +2, +5 so that 5f moves can be used more effectively and not trade as often.
Sweeps
Adjusted all sweep frame data so that when blocked, cannot have their extended followthrough frames punished by 4f moves.
Throws
- Decreased throw range
- Standardized leniency for DTC input on most throws
Jumps
All characters have had their jump frames reduced by one and jump arcs slightly lowered (Tyara lost 3).
