Ono teases new feature for Street Fighter X Tekken in January

AWWWWWWWWW SNAP SUPER GEMS INCOMING

maybe a combo breaker???

Or a parry

I imagine this new feature will be a redesign/replacement for the pandora mode..

Super SFxT coming out in 11 months with new characters and new gems.

But still no Karin/Mika

#1 I feel you. Gems & Heralds mode incoming.

Press X to win Gem, it'll be pretty expensive though.

are they also gunna announce the characters on the 13th too?

@3

I would LOVE to see parries return. :)

Also

All signs point to something bad happening

It's gonna be Friday the 13th

D:

or hopefully a proper fully-fledged 'no gems mode', so that the game will have a proper chance at being played competitively

how about a gem that lets you parry?

1. X-FACTOR
2. AUTO RAGE QUIT
3. 64 players at the same time!
4. Free SOPA!

Wesker Gem (Day 1 $14.99 DLC)

ANOTHER FEATURE? WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU ONO?!?

how many of you guys still wanna get this even though capcom supports sopa

@ neon6

Everyone.

ANOTHER feature? lolwut

Blanka of course.

hopefully it's a disable gem system feature.

no gem mode : D

#17 I'll get it regardless of who or what they support. Buying a capcom game or not buying a capcom game isn't going to have any impact on SOPA. People think capcom has a ton of pull or something and that boycotting capcom is going to magically stop SOPA.

You want to stop SOPA? go write letters to the ESA and congress or something.

The new feature is probably that thing they mentioned about Custom combo macros at the cost of meter. Press 1 button u do a combo.

More casual friendly features incoming. Mark my words.

#10
agreed

focus cancel?

@23

Truth.

wesker

either

1 roll dice move, randomly ends match and picks a winner out of random
2 multi colored mode, activate a gem and watch your characters flash stupid colors all the way through the match, (woops thats already in there)
3 mega pandora, if your characters health falls below 99% activate pandora for the remainder of match (all attacks do 1000% damage, pandora lasts 500 seconds)

capcom ever heard of less is more, this game is becoming a real jumbled mess

Man you are all so venomous. Wait to talk about the game after it's out.

A "feature" usually isn't a "mechanic" so it's most likely some sort of feature like a replay system or youtube uploading, ect...

@#18
Lol too true.

This is why Capcom can do what ever they want. They'll just keep slapping the fans around while they complain with no real goals in mind.

Let's not even mention that every fighter they've produced after Super is pure $h!t.

It's obviously gonna be Zombie Dan DLC

I really was behind this game.... but now they wanna add MORE.. to whats already there??.. Its too much...what is starting to happen is one big mess.... wanting to do too much in one game is crazy..unless its a tournament mode..then i gotta say im done..Ill wait and see...but my support is slowly dying out....

Maybe they'll actually make the game GOOD? or not R-tarded to look at. Or maybe, just maybe. theyll set the bar higher so this isn't a baby game.

@ #32 true but this community seems to need something to complain about so let them. Odds are that 70% of the complainers will buy the game anyway and STILL complain.

Just how this site seems to go. It would be great if it had a replay system that lets you upload to youtube. Didn't they have that for 3SO?

@33
Really? A lot of people would disagree with you on that. Umvc3 and SSF4AE are the 2 tourney games at the moment. People enjoy to watch and play Umvc3 a lot. You may think it's are pure sh*t, but clearly anyone that people actually care to listen to (J.Wong, Combofiend, Marn, etc.)think differently, and in the end, their opinion counts a lot more than some twat on the internet ;)

Goooooo character creation.

its a new system that makes your wallet lighter

Waaaaaaaah they are adding stuff to a game for free! Waaaah I R CONFUSSEDED. Is this community full of little bitches or what?
I try to give you kids a chance, but honestly you are all just skinny jean wearing limp wristed pussies. Cry some more and stick some more arcade sticks up your ass homos.

focus attacks or parries would be cool. but it could be something new that's never been done before, like a new way to avoid damage.

I really hope there's no combo breaker, being able to get out of combos is the most stupid thing ever, next to hitstun deteriation.

Who cares? Everyone is gonna boycot this game anyway after that SOPA news, right?

@43 I'm getting a feeling we will get that, everything we've seen so far are ways to deliver damage, something along the lines of parry or focus attack to stop the beating.

@44 Oh sure.Because boycotting a game from a company will help stop the SOPA bill...Oh wait.

How odd. I'd argue this game has too many features and is beginning to resemble a poorly designed mish-mash of half-baked and fickle ideas.

If anything they'd do well to cut back on a lot of the crap and focus their efforts on solidifying the wealth of content and features this game already boats. Hell, a lot of this game's filler could be axed entirely rather than have it added to.

@ 46

I remember a few days back in another topic how almost everyone was screaming that they wouldn't buy anything from Capcom anymore.

Doesn't matter to me, I'm not spending my money on this anyway.
Gems & easy combo system / No Balrog & no Dan = no buy for me.

Way too many mechanics - the fighting game

I expect it to be either Gambit or Omega Tom Hanks.

Anything less will be a SEVERE disappointment...

Well a feature doesn't have to be a game mechanic , it could be a new mode like say a MK9 Styled Story mode perhaps??? Cause id really like one :L

@48

You're a retard.

"No Balrog & no Dan = no buy for me."

Way to kill the precipice of your entire post with that stupid remark, haha

@43: Something that allows your opponent to start a combo is fine, but not something that allows them to stop you mid-combo.

@44: This game comes out in march, just how ****ing long will it take for this ****ing thing to blow over? And no, I don't believe in boycotting things like this, seems about as effective as communism: Might work on paper, but not IRL.

I meant @45, not @43*. Need to be able to edit my posts...

Awaiting random tripping during dashes.

@ 52

Me not spending the little money that I've got on a SF game that doesn't have my favorite characters in it makes me a retard?
Thumbs up to you!

come on Mika and Juri !

HELL YEAH CMOOON CAPCOM SUPRISEE MEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@56 Lol no.The fact that you've said that your gonna boycot the game,yet you said "No Balrog & no Dan = no buy for me." is what makes you a retard.Congratulations,you just contradicted yourself.

People find anything to complain and argue about, I bet some people here would argue with a stop sign. Let's just wait until the game comes out and see how it is.

@ 60

You must be more stupid than I thought. I never said that I was gonna boycot the game. I wasn't planning on buying it from the moment they said that Dan wasn't going to be in it.

uh oh. been trying to find ways to not get highly pisedabout this game. fingers crossed for some good news. Can't handle anymore bad. lol

@17

I'm buying it used or not at all.

#60 so since you decided to not buy the game since dan was confirmed not in it, which was MONTHS ago you still decide to read about SFxT news and comment on it for what reason? If you had no interest since the beginning why are you showing interest now by commenting on this post?

^ meant at #62

@ flungdungfar

Because I try to read all the SF related news. Maybe they'll announce new characters, you never know what's gonna happen.

My guess is that it's a more complex grapple system, with multiple guesses to escape grapple strings. I think that would be cool.

#5, #7, #14, #15, #40
HAHAHAHA

#12, #21, #22
would be nice

#44
Yes

No Hype. Gems. SFxT Supports SOPA.

A few motto's for a portion of the FGC

"Fighting Games - If they are fun then they are sh!t"
or
"Fighting Games - No time for fun when there a W's to get"
or
"Fighting Games - Serious Business, Casuals need not apply"
Now just to give you guys what you want Capcom Motto's
" Capcom - All else fails make a new disc and charge 40"
" Capcom - It's called DLC not DLFree"
" Capcom - If at first you don't succeed super, hyper edition again"

SAMURAI

You should tend to want you favorite characters to stay away from the stinkers. This game is losing all types of appeal.

I know that boycotting Capcom probably won't stop SOPA all on its own, but I just hope people don't neglect the fact that we need to do SOMETHING to stop it.

I'm really worried about SOPA itself slipping under the radar like Protect IP already almost did.

I know this may seem like a lot to ask, but why don't you guys wait to see what it is before passing judgement?

#73
Woah woah woah mister don't you try and bring rationality in this comments section. That ain't how we roll up in here.

Tough luck for SFxT, theres plenty of great party games out there that will easily out sell this party game.

who the heck cares about features...you promised us new characters, so announce them...keep you promisses goddamit!...

#75 Alright look I don't think you realize that the name alone will sell this game. Not everyone is interested in the politics of the FGC nor do they give a flying F@ck what capcom's business plan is. They just want to play the game and I can tell you of many a person that is picking this game up just because it is Street Fighter vs Tekken. They could give less of a f#ck who they picked so long as most of em are from Street Fighter 2 which is the game they played. I really wish you guys knew how small of a drop in the bucket you are. Whatever you want to call it "sheep buying into capcom's crap" or whatever this game will sell whether you like it or not. Now think about it Capcom sells mayyyyyybe 3 million of these games and only 500 of you don't buy the game or hell even a thousand of you don't buy it you are a small and I mean micro sized small drop in the bucket. I don't like every decision they made with the game but I'm gonna pick it up because I like fighting games and I love both these franchises.

#77, Cool story bro.

alternative mode or costumes.

I can't believe how many people are crying about more "features". You all are goddamn insane. Chill the hell out until you actually know what they are announcing.

THe new feature will be tripping

That "new feature" of upper-cutting the sh*t out of Ken looks sweet as hell! Hope it works on Ryu as well. Neckbreakering fatalities.... I'm sold!

@Everyone

I'm pretty sure they already confirmed a "Combo Breaker" type function. I think it slid under the radar because of the Gems.

They showed it at the same time with the Charge Cancel for reversal/counter hit properties.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Also, "casuals" should have a real easy time figuring all this stuff out lol. I'm a FG Vet and my head is spinning!

Im waiting for the game to fully come out this MARCH to see what will the problems be. Compare those problems to MVC3 and SF4 just to see if they consistently make the same mistake (if its a mistake) to push out the next $40 game. I will rent/ borrow the game but I aint giving them $60.

Lol at this point, I really only come to Eventhubs to read the comments. Hilarious.

Anyways, can't wait to see what else they have in store.

There are way too many damn features. I thought the builds before the gems would have been acceptable to release.

While I'm still excited for this game, I think I will be way more critical of it than I originally wanted to be. More features means more potentially BAD ideas that ruin the game. So if not every one of these arbitrary "new features" is worthwhile, that will definitely be the end of my hope in Capcom Fighters. SFIV was good, MVC3 was beyond mediocre, and I am starting to really be on the fence with what to expect from SFXT.

The way to improve a game is not add more and more features. It's about perfecting a few GREAT features to start with that stand the test of time and adding in new ideas that serve a purpose to the existing features and push the game forward.

@ 38

How about you try to form your own opinion rather than ride the d!ck and hang on the nuts oh Wong and gang. Be a self respecting human being rather than a cheer leader.

SOPA gem.

MvC3: So barebones, Cashcom should look to MK9, just look at all the modes and features it has! GOTY!

SFXT: WTF Capcom, there's too many things in this game, keep it simple!

Capcom can't win.

wow you guys whine allot.

SFXT featuring KILLER INSTINCT

Geez People not even knowing what the damn feature is yet and already raging...

SFXT featuring SNK

SFXT featuring MUGEN okay im done

hmm....i wonder how much this feature will cost me?

prolly nothing

@89

QFT

Ok so let me get this straight, when capcom decides to put a few features in a game and charge us money for DLC that would add features, it's bad. But when they decide to fill a game with features that we want plus a couple more to keep us happy, its still a bad thing?

http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lvr...

gems hate, sopa hate, features hate, dlc hate, character hate.

You keep hating im buying this game and playing the sh!t out of it... no doubt you will stop the hate and buy the game and then hate on it some more. Why bother, just go play another genre and hate on that too.

Well I gotta admit im super excited about this game but in all honesty they have revealed enough features to span over like 4 average street fighter games. So why add more? Spend there time adding more fighters to the roster instead of slapping in more features when the features we have already is a big mess.
I'd prefer by features they mean modes and characters and not another pointless thing slapped onto the game

I think they are talking about modes rather than a new mechanic though
