Just got back after spending an hour at the loc test. I only got to play once. All the characters were playable.
Eiji- They just took his 95 sprite and touched it up. He's got new kick animations though.
Nobody played Duck.
All the stages were the same. There was one that I didn't see at the last loc test. It was very Fatal Fury Special Terry stage. There's a beach in the background and you are in some sort of grassy area. GIs are on the side hanging out. It looks incredible.
There is was a lot of canceling. I saw one person cancel a SDM into a MaxSDM. Eiji could cancel his fire ball into his super fireball.
Doulong is back and bitchy as ever.
Kula has a cool looking Icicle (or however you spell that word) air projectile.
Very impressed. This looks a LOT better than noe wave and it's running on the same hardward.
This summer, NBC, SStenka, Hokutonoken, and K0FXI for atomis wave. Things are looking better.
