Tekken

Anybody here play Tekken Tag Tournament 2 or Tekken Revolution? It's a 3-d fighting game instead of the regular 2-d, so it's a lot different than most other fighting games. Just wanted to see if I can relate to somebody on these forums.

  • I used to play TR. Thought about picking up TTT2 but I don't actually like tag mechanics. I'll wait for the next Tekken.

    I'm old school and used Michelle and Yoshi. Lei is okay too. Since they weren't in TR, I went with Lili until I unlocked Alisa. Now I pretty much only use Alisa.

    I stopped playing because it became way too grindy to unlock new characters. I kinda wanted to try out the new vampire girl but way too lazy to earn gift points.

    Who do you use?

    I play tekken... Card tournament.
    :p
  • I got into Tekken 6 a while back... Lee was my guy, dat snap kick!
  • Paul is currently my main. He was my childhood favorite so I stuck with him lol. I got TT2 after I got tired of the 5 coin system in TR, so I made yoshimitsu my secondary in TT2, but dropped him after a while, so I'm currently learning heihachi and his ewgf. I used to play card tournament too lol.

    Sixth times the charm I guess lol. I'll probably download it again if I have the space since it was pretty fun.
  • Is that game any good? I kinda avoided it because the 3d graphics made it look like a huge battery drainer.

    Yes it is. It's different and involves luck and planning. It could take up a lot of your time by how much you need to be invested in it to get a good deck, which you could only improve through trial and error. It does drain the battery, but slower than I expected it too.

    Battery use isn't too bad

    also the update got delayed again looooooooool surprise surprise

    if you start playing it let me know, there's a lot of newbie mistakes I can help you avoid
    i.e. playing ling or yoshi
  • Lol. I've been using Paul and have a few good cards in my deck, but before I stopped playing a while ago, I remember Ling and Yoshi being the most abused ones with their cards abilities. I don't if that has changed, but I used to hate fighting them.
  • Hmm, I'm tempted. What's the time commitment like? Can't be worse than mpq, right?
  • It mostly depends on how much you like it. It takes up a lot of time if you want to become decent in it.

    if you want to be a top 200 player
    about $200 or ~4-5 months of f2p
    can be a little less if you know what you're doing beforehand and miss out on noob mistakes

    top play is kinda stressful though, it's a lot of fun when you're just starting out and putting together your collection and figuring out deck builds

    only tournaments are weekly things with 1 fight per week! minimum requirement , so the time commitment is as much or as little as you put into it
