asdf I can't pull of IKs because my keyboard won't read four keypresses at once

You can set one of the L or R buttons to all four keys in the in-game config. That's what I did

Nothing is greater than May's IK.

Testament and Johnny's IK's are the only things in the game capable of slaying Slayer. :V

I still say May's IK is impossible to do. And look here there's a mission that requires it. RAWR.

Edit: Holy shit

I knew Faust was kinda messed up even before I played but... somehow he has far surpassed my expectations.

Seriously what

Welp, after 1 day of having downloaded the game, I managed to do this:

Takes real skill to do this on the first try, yo. :V

My survival runs in order:
Order-Sol: 320
Jam: 420
Faust: 668
Ky: 760
:V

Granted, I played for 2 days in arcade first.

So I found out that they released Guilty Gear Accent Core Plus for PSP. Even more reason for me to want a PSP now. @_@

Suikama · « **Reply #40 on:** December 13, 2009, 01:38:30 AM »

AAAAAAAARRRRGGGG How the hell do I beat I-No? I can't avoid the attack that covers the whole screen and I can't block it either. Perfect blocking eats my tension immediately and I can't jump over it...

Also is it just me or is my damage reduced for this fight?

EDIT: FINALLY AFTER 6 CONTINUES. Landed one IK when I had 0% and then spammed 6HS because it always seems to hit her derp derp

RainfallYoshi · « **Reply #41 on:** December 13, 2009, 03:42:40 AM »

Boss I-No is a MEGA BITCH.

All I can say for one of Dizzy's story paths: K have fun lol.

Stuffman · « **Reply #42 on:** December 13, 2009, 03:49:53 AM »

That huge attack I-No does is called Megalomania. It has three modes:

Sine: Fills the screen with a sine wave. Get to a safespot and carefully move closer as the wave moves. This is a good opportunity to declare your IK if you're doing badly in the round.

Wave: Makes a huge wave that dips down then upward. Get to the far corner ASAP and duck.

Spread: This is a short burst that fills the whole screen. You need to get right up against I-No and double jump over it right as she fires it.

She can also Roman Cancel any of these patterns into any other, forcing you to switch. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DISRUPT THIS ATTACK. There is absolutely not a single thing you can do to evade it except in the ways described above. Hitting her, jumping behind it, etc will just make it go insane and hit everywhere and kill you.

Jana · « **Reply #43 on:** December 13, 2009, 04:01:48 AM »

Also worth noting is that IKs won't work on I-No during Megalomania. You'll just waste your Tension meter.

After knowing how to properly deal with it, Megalomania can serve as a breather for you to gather your wits about you for the actual fighting after the dodging. I don't know how it is in this PC version, but I-No would use Megalomania whenever 25% of her life bar is taken. It's possible to cheat a bit by making her life bar jump from just over 75% to just under 50% with a high-powered attack, but it isn't worth risking a lost round over. This also means that getting to each Megalomania is harder as the fight goes on and I-No's defense increases with life loss. It's much easier to get her from 100% to 75% than from 25% to 0%, which is why the 25% Megalomania is a great time for a breather.

Stuffman · « **Reply #44 on:** December 13, 2009, 09:25:30 AM »

As a side note, I think it might be impossible for Potemkin to avoid the sine pattern since he's so huge. The wave pattern isn't easy to get away from either, since he lacks any way to move backward quickly.

Mounting Jaggis · « **Reply #45 on:** December 13, 2009, 11:51:17 PM »

I just IK immediately after she finished the Megalomania with Potemkin. She dashed towards me both times I did it.

We actually have that game back home (my sister asked my mom to buy for her on Christmas a few years ago). I will attest to the fact that the IK system is incredibly broken and that boss fight is pretty hard to win without abusing it yourself.

Not to mention what a godly SPECIAL move Imperial Ray is. Christ, she wasn't so much an SNK boss as she was a shmup boss.

Or, you could pick Chipp and try doing this for major bragging rights.

Just as planned.

Also, my copy of the first Guilty Gear finally shipped yesterday. this sums up my feelings nicely.

Jam-Kiske · « **Reply #53 on:** December 24, 2009, 09:26:15 PM »

Like Jan says I got that game as a Christmas present like 4 years ago.
I had it beat with like half the cast but my memory card disappeared... I don't think I'm going to even try to do that all again... >>;

Chainsaw Guitar · « **Reply #54 on:** December 30, 2009, 01:55:25 AM »

Playing older GG games will just make you worse anyways. But then again, you play Sol & Ky, and they haven't really changed that much. Sol is just Terry Bogard with a toy sword, and Ky almost always deals lolReimu damage. Unless he's up against Testament at which point well... *sigh* (._. )

Got to level 930 in survival with A.B.A today before being destroyed by Gold Dizzy.

You know you're addicted to Guilty Gear when...

Playing Castlevania: SotN, you encounter the Phantom Skull enemies and leave the area immediately fearing that the next boss is Testament. :V
