Seeing some folks say that you can start downloading on PS4, can someone else check for me? Don't have access to my PS4 right now.
Wait what's wrong with Eliza?

Why do so many people have the game.
Ugh, it feels like years since the last broken street date in Australia.
Last one I remember was Batman: Arkham City. I skipped my lecture and went home with my early copy. Good times.

Yeah man you need to chill.
As long as the arcades are giving Tekken great profit to Bamco, it'll continue to live. Like I said, regardless of how you feel it's still giving them their biggest profit ever in the series. It's not dying with this entry. It's too profitable for them. Relax a bit, regardless of the changes, and just play the game and see how it is.

Just picked up my copy but still waiting for my hori stick to ship. Might just have to fix my TE2 cuz playing pad feels like playing with my feet at this point...
Just checked on mine and nope. NA here.
The EX. Meter and her story line doesn't jive for me nor does her appearance and move set, too similar to Lili and the deceased Anna Williams, same with Akuma's inclusion and how he's canon in the story now.
Scratch that
If Eliza is in, it means my girl Ingrid has a chance. Bring on the ingrid.

Honestly, gameplay-wise I'm sure it's a blast. Can't wait to dive in.
I appreciate the talks off the edge haha. But really, I just want to play it.
I do wish there was a guide though. Going to feel weird not having one filled with my own little notes of homemade combos book marking Yoshi's section.

Yeah I feel you, I mentioned this earlier. Didn't like characters from other universes in SoulCalibur, and don't like Akuma appearing in this one. Feels wrong, takes me out of the game's fiction, and it irks me that he gets a prominent place in the story. But it is what it is.
Probably the only guest character I'd be okay with is Kazuma Kiryu from the Yakuza series.
I saw this video that is a feature overview of Tekken 7 and nothing indicates that there will be online lobby rooms like in Tekken 5 DR Online, Tekken 6 and TTT2, Would they seriously remove such a big feature?

Forreal, only a few more days left and honestly I wonder how often I'll be playing because when I think about this? I think back during the T5DR days. All I was doing is going online, customizing my guys, just having good ol fun. Same with the T6 days. I don't remember much besides Scenario and going online. As long as I got my stuff I'm good but it does suck that it's not a complete package for most. Luckily Tekken Team will do well on the post-game DLC or at least I believe they will.
Same but at this point, it seems the Tekken universe is whatever it wants to be. So bring on the fantasy characters!

Day 1 patch is 534MB for those who are wondering.

Normally guest characters in FG's don't bug me sicne they aren't cannon. Akuma should bother me because of this, but because they went all in on it, by making him a center piece and integrating him so firmly in the story, I'm alright with it just to see how they handle it.

There are lobbies. They're about the same as in TTT2.

Is there a rematch button online?
Are you playing on a 4K TV?

There's a "request revenge match" button, so yeah. You can see it here:

is the campaign as good as netherealms stuff or is it crappy like SFV's?
I agree, and really appreciate the fact that guest characters are optional DLC. Finally, for the first time, I can completely exclude them from my copy of the game...and this feature comes at no additional cost. I don't mind fighting the players that pick them against me online, I just don't want them in my random select, in my vs. CPU battles, or cluttering up my select screen.
I figure the bonus mode is something like Ball or Bowling rather than a full-on story mode or a no-effort add-on like Time Attack...something cute and fun. We did just see Tekken Ball though, in the Wii U version of Tekken Unlimited, so I don't know if they'd bring it back so soon.
Steam pre-load is up.
I'm also gonna try this on my Surface Pro 4 and hope it runs on the lowest settings and at a low resolution. (Hey, SFV works!)
I checked my J-PSN pre-order and the game should be unlocked for play at 11am tomorrow. Man, I wish I had taken off from work now, lol.

I'd say on par with GG Xrd / Rev. / 2. . It has just the right amount of Tekken humor, and it's interestingly interactive with a giant summary about the whole saga (and gazillions of unlockables, such as previous games cutscenes, other media etc).
Honestly, I don't like MK's campaign that much, it revolves way too much around QTE for my tastes.
BTW, I don't know why you guys don't like Akuma... It blends in perfectly and makes a hell lot of sense in the story.
have you done any of the side stories? How are they? I know they're short but are they still quality in your opinion?
Um did we watch the same story? He actually provides no story relevance besides being a
training dummy for the mishimas
The side stories are worse with the only redeeming factor being if you care at all about these two.
Nina and Steve finally get closure
the joke characters become even bigger jokes, and characters that weren't joke characters became jokes.
But knowing that harada will be providing DLC, these will have continuing chapters, because they seem unfinished.
So, Yoshimitsu + Infinite Azure is pretty much a shout out to Bloodborne IMO. lol Seriously, Azure is pretty much the exact same place you fight Rom at. And Yoshi looks all Great One'd up.
Dat price!
Dat price!
I asked ROM to be modded in
Do it guys
Bloodborne's legacy still rings true.
I want in on this
Though MKX had only a few QTEs, Injustice 2 has none at least.

Tekken is an Oedipal tragedy. The very reason why Akuma is in the game is not only an interesting take on the love-hate relationship between Kazuya and Heihachi (since
he's here to kill them both
Kazumi has asked for her own son to be murdered
It's basically the love triangle component that has been missing from the series, considering that
Kazuya has always wanted to avenge his mother by killing his father
It's a great family story and this mode is a fitting conclusion to the saga.
Regarding the side stories, they are in the true spirit of Tekken arcade ending cutscenes for the past 20 years.
shhhh don't grant us eyes.
using a greek term and format doesnt' save the game from a bad story.
All of the sudden, we are expected to feel bad for Heihachi. The story hardly focuses on Jin or any other character for the matter, Jun is still no where to be found, they aren't sure if they are keeping the storyline from tekken 4 canon or not if the devil gene is indeed a gene or something supernatural, and the omitting of classic characters for story reasons are reasons I've yet to see since we have a damn octopus riding a gender ambigious character that gets shuffled between female and male by the developer.
And no this isn't classic tekken endings, there is more questions than answers, more confusion than clarity, and the endings lead us on to us believing there will be more to the story. This is all I can hope for from the DLC. But the character episodes alone are the worse Tekken has seen since Tekken Tag Tournament 1 which wasn't canon so the story not making sense was fine. There are more joke endings than ever for characters which is why I'm led to believe that hopefully the characters that haven't returned yet will come and be in the next bracket of fighters hopefully expanding the storyline for the character episodes.

I agree with you there are still unanswered questions but I enjoyed the ride very much

I didn't... lol but to each their own. The gameplay is superb, I hope and pray the DLC answers a lot of questions and we don't have to wait for Tekken 8 to get answers.

Question: is Tekken 7 going to be mechanically convoluted as a SFV or even an Injustice 2?
Besides the rage arts, and moves that provide super armor and cork screw juggles, no. Game is easier if you learn basic juggles, spacing and which moves are safe and unsafe on block.
Tekken is less mechanics and execution and more memorization. The new characters in particular have a lot less moves than the older folks and are designed to be pretty easy to pick up and play.
Havent you not actually played the story tho?
I watched the whole thing including character episodes so I wouldn't be hyped when going into it expecting it to be amazing. I'm glad I did. I'm not bothered by spoilers unless its The Last Guardian.

I am legit dumb with the fighting genre. I just don't have a knack for it. I can't deny how much value is wrapped in that $40 sale though

Yo, fuck these character battles/endings.
What did they do to you, Yoshi?
Edit: that ain't passion for your characters and their fans, I'm sorry. Holy shit.

But the story is more than just cutscenes. I guess Im just going into the story mode for the entire experience and not just the story telling angle. The interactivity of the battles and the cutscenes seems really interesting to me imo and unless delp refutes this, it seems(at least from trailers) that it would provide a big part of the enjoyment of the story mode overall.
Side stories are the completely unknown bit to me, so I cant really say anything there.
