BlazBlue: General thread.

Will Continuum Shift be released on the PC by the holidays?

I find that very unlikely.

[ahem]

So has CS gotten delayed again yet?

Platinum the Trinity uses Divine Buster That or Starlight Breaker.

That is the most badass Astral Finish ever.

Valkenhayn will finally be released for the 360 on Dec. 7th.

Attention all Blaz Blue tropers. The Character sheet is in serious need of a revamp. As with the Big Page Lock thread over on Wiki talk, The character sheet has been locked down to prevent the possibility of crashing the page and/or site if any more HTML characters are added.

The page NEEDS to be split up into numerous pages, but I'm not sure how we should go about this.

We could either split them up Alphabetically such as

• Blaz Blue AE
• Blaz Blue FJ
• Blaz Blue KO
• Blaz Blue PT
• Blaz Blue UZ

Or...

As complicated as the story is, it might be a better idea to separate them into the faction that each character belongs in.

• Blaz Blue NOL
• Blaz Blue Sector Seven
• Blaz Blue Vigilantes
• Blaz Blue Vagrants
• Blaz Blue Minor Characters

If you have any better name suggestions, please let me know.

For all intents and purposes, Ragna, Rachel, Hakumen, Arakune, Valkenhayn, and Trinity qualify as Vagrants since they aren't affiliated with any one faction, even though Arakune USED to be Sector Seven before the games officially started.

Litchi, Tager, Kokonoe, Lamba-11 and Makoto would make up Sector Seven (despite changes in affiliation made during the story with you know who.)

Bang, Carl, Nirvana, and Taokaka would make up the Vigilantes.

Jin, Noel, Tsubaki, Hazama, and maybe Relius Clover could make up the NOL...

I'm not really quite sure how to qualify Relius, Mu-12, Nu-13, and some of the other spoilerific characters at the end of CS..

Let me know what you think. This NEEDS to be done, and fast.

And nobody plays with me xD

I do like the second option.

Ok, I'll split them up according to affiliation in the story, but I'm open for suggestions on better names. I'm not sure if "Vagrants" is the best word to describe everyone in that category. I know Rachel is an Observer in game, but there's gotta be a better term for them.

I'm also not sure what to do about the story's main antagonists.. how to categorize them. Probably safe to put Mu-12 in with them though.

Nu-13... I don't really know much about her since I've only played CS and not CT.

Nu-13 is definitely an antagonist.

So where would she fit into all this? Maybe I should make a "Antagonists" or "Bosses" character page?

That could work.

Ok, I'll try that out.

• Blaz Blue Antagonists

This will let me move Hazama, Relius, Mu and Nu into that catagory along with the others.

Ok, I'm going to give this a shot.

Why not just split the pages based on how the characters were split on the original page? Like:

• Introduced in Calamity Trigger
• Introduced in Continuum Shift
• NPCS

I think that would be easier and you wouldn't have to come with a title's like Vagrants.

Actually, that's a good idea. Why didn't I think of that? It could work, but most of the characters were introduced in Calamity Trigger, which would make that page still pretty sizable. No telling how much that would free up for the purpose of preventing the pages from crashing anything. on the other hand though, it'll prevent obvious spoilers for specific characters made simply from the fact that a character shows up on a certain page.

I'll test it out to see how it looks.

Well, why not just put the ones that were playable in CT in one page and the ones that became playable in CT in another page then and leave the NPC's for last?

Done, done, and done. Can't believe I was trying to make things overly complicated when such a simple solution was there all along. Thanks for the suggestion of just breaking them up by game.

• BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger
• BlazBlue: Continuum Shift
• BlazBlue: Non-Player Characters

It's not perfect, and most of it is just copy and paste from one page to the next, but the job is done.

... Is Continuum Shift out? D:

I would go out and check if it wasn't for that damned snow.

CS is reportedly out in Europe, and the werewolf Battle Butler is out on XBL for about $3-4. Huzzah.

FRIGGIN FINALLY. But i spent all my MS points on episodes of Soul Eater. Dammit, Arc system.

Wait.

Disregard this.

Another thing I've learned playing online: Valkenhayn or no, a competent Litchi's magical staff can still make a third of your HP just...disappear into thin air before you even get the opportunity to screw up and let her start the combo all over again.

My router decided to stop working with my 360. So no Valkenhayn for me just yet.

Oh, online? I've won ONE match. It's kinda funny, actually. Watching some of my brother's or friend's matches, they pull of intricate combos at insane speeds that just make my jaw drop. The match that i won was against someone just as bad as me, and it was like watching two salarymen get into a slap fight after they had gotten drunk and spent an hour on a roller coaster in comparison. They play the game like a quarter as much as i do. Granted i'm the only one interested in the plot.
