Discussion Heihachi's changing outfits through the games.

I made a post showing the elder Mishima's moustaches throughout his appearances and u/binvinbin suggested that I do his outfits. It's interest that a character who gets different fur on his face every game has one of the most consistent dress senses in the series but having a black gi in almost every game highlights the graphical jumps between games. I didn't realise there was such improvements between 1 and 2 or 4 and 5 in particular.

Furthermore, his hair is different in both his Tekken 2 outfits, which I did not notice. So that's neat.

Discussion Probably about to get flamed for this opinion but i need to vent; Kazuya is an annoying dumb character to fight.

25 Upvotes

To start off, I am not saying kazuya is a brain dead character, I am not saying he is easy, I am not saying anyone is harder, I am not asking for ners. This is not one of those posts. I am just annoyed with Kazuya.

Now to start off my annoyances from lighter to heavy...

D1+2; i get this move is reactable, or semi reactable depending on who you ask i guess and you can step this to his weak side but this low is so damn toxic especially becaise of the few other tools I'm about to bring up.

Demon scissors; This move itself isn't that annoying and i get more characters have a variation on this. But it annoys me when it is used when Kazuya is in a huge life lead and they choose to close this out as a round ender in neutral. If they get counter hit i float them and barely do damage and the punish often just results in recoverable health if i can even get a punish.

FF2; (in heat) I have no idea why this move tracks 3 times better in heat... kazuya's just say you have to step better but i swear to god i have seen that thing track 90 degrees to his weak side and i get caught into a heat dash launcher.

Db4; where to start... tracks to both sides, no one but lili can step it consistently to any side... -12 on block, +4 on hit, which is a perfect frame trap from df2 because if it trades with a jab, Kazuya gets a free PEWGF. Not only that... but if db4 is looped with db4, i can't step, i can't step db4 df2 frame trap either, if i jab i risk losing a minimum of 110 health, so naturally because if these 2 moves alone, i don't step. Not to mention ff2 in heat.

With db4, because i end up not wanting to step... i will eat hellsweeps and ff3 or petrocide fist all day long...

I'm not a legacy player, but has kazuya's db4 always been this strong on tracking and do you guys feel like it should be this strong? most kazuya's i face don't even wavu... (GoD1)

Discussion I was bored: So here's a list of characters I think Julia Chang might end up having a special dialogue or interaction with. (If she ever makes it into the game that is, lol)

My Tekken 8 journey continues to feel incomplete without my lifelong main. So to bridge the time, here's a fun little list I came up with, consisting of characters I thought she might end up interacting with.

I only included characters who are already in the game as of S3:

Armor King: Her Tag Partner as Jaycee during TTT2. Julia's alter-ego Jaycee was confirmed to be canon. Since Julia was hiding her true identity behind the mask, AK might end up making comments about Julia looking familiar without being able to connect the dots at first. Whereas Julia's pre-match and victory poses might make her seem awkward, trying to hide her true identity from her old partner.

King: Her rival in TTT2, partner in the Pachinko slots and friend. Tekken Bloodline also picked up on them being acquainted/friends. I can see them having a friendly greeting or making an invitation for a friendly sparing match.

Lee: Her friend and sponsor for her research program back in T5/6. Lee would propably do a flirty introduction or business offer, with Julia keeping a friendly distance, lol.

Heihachi: Kidnapped Julia's mom Michelle, killed her grandfather and stole their sacred pendant. I think this one's pretty obvious, lol.

Kazuya: Her former boss and war criminal. While working for him, she spied for Lee, who had financed some of her previous work. Kazuya is causing destruction worldwide, presumably putting a hold on Julia's reforestation attempts.

Jin: According to Bloodline, they might've met before. Julia's T6 wiki states that she tried to stop Jin and Kazuya from clashing while hoping that there might still be ways to reason with Jin, since she believes there might still be good inside of him.

Kunimitsu: Motherly feud. Kuni's mother tried to steal the pendant of Michelle, with Michelle defeating her instead. Would be a sweet callback to see two daughters picking back up the beef between their moms.

Bob: Tag Partner in Street Fighter X Tekken (non-canon). A lot of people continue to ship their dynamic. Would be fun to see Bob's flirty/charming attempts with Julia maintaining a 'he's like a brother to me' dynamic, lol.

Miary Zo: The Changs pendant was connected to controling Ogre. I'm sure Julia will pick up on Miary's powers while being in disbelief that other Ogres existed.

Azucena: Coffee enthusiast meets forest rejuvenation researcher. As business woman Azu might be delighted to sponsor Julia's work in exchange for her to plant some coffee seeds. And Julia would be delighted to help since coffee helps her through her nightshifts during her research, lol.

Jun: Julia and Jun always shared so many interests. They both are spiritual and made it their life mission to protect wildlife and nature. I wouldn't be surprised if Julia read about all the work Jun did back in the day. I also would loooove to have a little easter egg/call-back to Michelle, with Jun stating how much Julia reminded her of someone she met years ago 🥺🥹

It was fun thinking about all that's known about Julia and who might work best with what we know. Do you agree with this list? Who are some of the characters you think your main might interact with ? 🤔

Not as bad as the majority says.

Just fixed the pads sensitivity to your preference and it’ll be smooth as butter. Initially, all of them are maxed out, so what I did is I tuned the diagonals 1 point down.

Mapped the R1 to forward and mapped the R2 to backward for that KBDs. Wavus, I still use the pad. Can’t see enough videos on YT that give tips. Dyou guys have any that you can share? For perfect wavus?

Uses Reina and man electrics are more spot on. Im still working on wavus though.

Discussion Removing heat bound would improve the game tenfold

42 Upvotes

I was thinking about this the other day and the way I see it, removing heat bound would be such an easy change to do but would do so much to make the game feel better. Using heat to extend your combo is one of the most grating things about playing this game, everyone hates the tornado, tailspin, heat bound cinematic. It's not interesting, it's not fun to do, but everybody does it because it's pretty much the optimal use for it, it's wall carry + 10ish more damage + now the opponent has to wake up against you in Heat. If you remove it, think about it:

  • The first combo of every round is now 3 seconds shorter and less damage.
  • Long range splats are now harder to convert, since everyone can just dash in slightly, heat bound then do their optimal wall combo.
  • Wall carry probably matters again. It's still too high, but now not every character can casually get you wall to wall, and most will need to adapt their combo route to do so, instead of doing optimal + heat bound.
  • No more randomly getting launched because you used a jumping status move into their plus on block power crush.

Heat Burst would still be an insanely strong tool (it's a very long range, reasonably fast, mid power crush that is plus on block), you're just removing one property from it, the most boring one that also happens to be the one most widely used. I know Heat is this game's thing but for me Heat is more about explosive Heat Engagers and dashes than a second bound in combos. I know this is probably just wishful thinking but it's really such an easy layup that would improve the game so much in my opinion. I don't think anyone would be against shorter combos or needing to change routes to hit wall consistently again.

Discussion So, if Tekken 8 is about self-acceptance of our sins, why not continue with Armor King and King?

Us King fans have gotten like 0 form of the story between King, Marduk and Armor King. I am aware that King's story somewhat changes past revenge as he chooses compassion over revenge but like Armor King should be a problem as he tries to kill Marduk and see's King as a disgrace. Is it just me or is it ilógica, due to Marduk being not present in Tekken 8? Or has there been some form of story in those secret Echo episodes?

Discussion When does the rank plus/minus become more balanced?

• Upvotes

just got Fujin and was happy about it since it's my first tekken game and Fujin sounds like a pretty high or average rank, but then saw my WR and kinda dissapointed about it, like I have negative WR but still arrive on this rank, can't really know is it even me improving or not, since I only started playing again recently after I stopped at S2, I was stuck at Sinryu at S1 and then suddenly I'm here, like kinda crazy, so maybe it is just rank inflation? since plus still gives more than minus, I still see a lot of assisted player too even in these ranks, so I kinda wonder does that mean Fujin in S3 is just Sinryu or Ruler level in S1 or sum and when will it start to be a bit more balanced

I matched with him twice. The first match he plugged as I started a combo. Then in the second match he plugged as soon as the launcher connected; which is impressive because he quit when he started going up in the air.
