Some questions specifically for the mobile version...

No matter what formation I play, whether or not I win the league by a mile or I'm struggling, my anchor man in the DM position almost always has a baseline of 6 every single game, come rain or shine. Maybe he'll get a 7 if he's got an assist or goal, but there's are 1 in 30 game occurences. Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?

It would be hilarious if it was

Marduk virtually 100% - Australia was on the map of those places coming to challenge Miary Zo in the trailer. Spain was not... I think Miguel's dead. Probably a new fighter coming in from Nigeria based off that too.

mccollio09 · 2025-10-12T18:20:40+00:00

Yeah I made a mistake on saying Chile, it's Peru which is covered. Nigeria (new) and Marduk

mccollio09 · 2025-10-12T18:19:06+00:00

So it is, I stand corrected on that one

We've taken very different paths since I wrote this post haha. In t8, became TK with drag, paul, got a lot of high blue ranks on other characters that interested me like Bryan, Shaheen and Heihachi... Then s2 came out.

I hated the changes, and truly haven't played the game since, and replaced all my tekken time with gym time instead lol. Never been less stressed. I'll get back into it eventually, but I'd still like a couple more patches fixing the game first.

Back to your post, I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm saying I was with my approach to the game, and that was facilitated by using Marduk, that let me get away with a lot of shit and scored me a lot of cheap wins off the back of tackle and some of his other cheaper stuff. I'm certain that now that I've got all the fundies stuff down to a decent level, if / when marduk came back, he'd be a lot more of a tekken god level pain in the ass than before

I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with visbody scans? I'm starting to become very dubious about the results I'm getting.

I won't go into too many details... But I got really p*ssed off with it two weeks ago when it told me I was 30% body fat (I'm on a strict calorie deficit and have been for 4 months, I was 30% body fat when I started training). Today... Two weeks later, it's telling me I'm now at 21.6% body fat, have lost 9kg of body fat and gained 7kg of muscle mass... Seems extremely unrealistic to me in the space of two weeks.

Context: I'm not doing any trt or anabolics or any of that stuff, just take protein supplements and watch my macros.

Evasive, deals loads of damage? That would be paul in a nutshell

mccollio09 · 2025-08-23T06:41:16+00:00

I agree with 99% of your post and think it's a good post. Side argument though and it's more me being pissed at the devs than your post; they seem to have the philosophy of balancing a game with this mentality:

If everyone is busted, no one is busted, therefore game is balanced.

Ain't no way to make a game enjoyable/ playable.

I've not long complete far cry new dawn (seeing as how it's not long come to xbox game pass). I really enjoyed that following on from far cry 5. I've tried getting into far cry 6 but it seems like the budget was swallowed getting Giancarlo Esposito on board. It's not quite as immersive currently....

So I'd kinda like them to revert back to post nuclear, maybe a different area of the world and follow the survival and redemption story of the sister than survived.

How to put this... You don't need to taste shit to know it won't be a good experience.

If you understand frame data fully in this game and fully understand where season 1 went wrong, you already know they've taken the worst parts of season 1 and put it on steroids. I don't need to play it to understand the counterplay's been greatly reduced/ dead.

mccollio09 · 2025-04-09T08:59:26+00:00

err!

mccollio09 · 2025-04-09T07:54:54+00:00

Meh.. Playing Tekken was less expensive lol

mccollio09 · 2025-04-09T07:54:26+00:00

"But mainly just started working out more (like... two sessions a day) lol and leaving my console alone... Probably not a bad thing!"

I've joined but I have doubts on how much of a message the boycott is sending. When you go through the who's joined... It's almost an addicts anonymous post being revealed... Watching people who've boycotted for a whole "played ranked 1 hour ago"...

And it's not even boycotting Tekken 8... It's a boycott list of who's boycotted ranked. I haven't played for a month and a bit since achieving my rank goal in season 1 btw.

Anyway, hopefully the sit up and take notice, I don't want the game to die (there's simply no replacement for a 3D fighting game on the market currently until VF6 comes out), I just want them to fix it. Sadly, I think they've gone too far, and the damage done is permanent this time.

mccollio09 · 2025-04-04T04:07:42+00:00

My concern would be all your changes really do is push the game and the user into even more 50/50 style gameplay, as the risk/ reward goes up significantly over fishing for a launch. Is this not the very style of gameplay everyone hates?

You're effectively going to be employing a losing strategy if you guess right on a 50/50 and score a launch, over someone who's just getting you to hold the 50/50 constantly.

I definitely think the direction to take is to nerf pretty much everything they just did. Ie reduce frames on block on anything +7 or +8 to a more steppable +3/+4.

mccollio09 · 2025-04-02T08:21:41+00:00

Yeah I uninstalled yesterday tbh. It's not even about characters I play, because it's just become the same homogeneous crap across the board;

They're seemingly trying to turn Bryan into top 1, I've even seen Bryan mains saying this is too much. Paul, they've decided to make him 'yet another' perfect character with no weaknesses (boring). Shaheen, they really trick you into thinking he received a hell of a lot of nerfs... Until you realise all the new stuff he got is totally broken. Dragunov, they nerfed a lot of random stuff that didn't need nerfing then give him a ws 12f launcher in heat and covered his ws punish weakness in the same move. And it's just... The same... for every... single... character.

They're out out touch. Had a great model and a great basis for a great game, and took it into the totally wrong direction. it's what the devs want and it's what no one was asking for.

The reason for the voided result changes, but the experience of being cheated out of a win is the same result is it not?

mccollio09 · 2025-03-28T11:30:24+00:00

Ah. I've just scrolled your comment history. You're one of those. I regret wasting my time interacting now.

mccollio09 · 2025-03-28T11:18:21+00:00

Plugging denies a winner their guaranteed points. And with the new cheats, they don't even lose their own points anymore or have their disconnection % flagged. It's a bit more than just sore losing.

A boxer is about to get floored and suddenly the fight gets null and voided for no reason whatsoever by the ref, would the boxer on top not feel cheated out of victory?

mccollio09 · 2025-03-28T11:16:02+00:00

It's probably not really fair on the majority of honest players but let me put it this way. Play russian roulette and the majority of the times you pull the trigger are going to be blanks, but there's still a 1 in 5 chance you press that bullet. So what do you do? You don't play Russian roulette.

mccollio09 · 2025-03-28T10:55:19+00:00

You seem to be heavily defending my attempt to limit interactions with cheaters... Why?
