  • does this look like the face of mercy?
That's awesome.  Diego and Stroheim were some of the only really 'necessary' characters that got left out of ASB.  Add them, F.F. and Speedwagon and you've already got pretty much everyone you need.  Everyone else from that point is just fanservice.  Which I am totally cool with.

I hope they include a couple more Jojolion characters this time around.  At the very least Kyo or Yotsuyu would be fun to play as.

You can easily fill out the empty slots.

=> alessi
=> robber soul
=>petshop
=> devo
=>dio son with manga abilities
=> dio son with the invisible fliers
=>weather report
=>FF
=>spice girl
=>mariah
=>high priestress

sure, thats like six from part 3 but it had a lot of memorable characters.

Don't get me wrong, there's a cubic buttload of less important side characters that could easily be really cool to play as in a game.  I was just saying that Diego and Stroheim are some of the few major characters that didn't make it in the first go-round, so it's good to see them making it in this one.  Much as I'd love to see Devo or Rikiel, I feel like priority should be given to major allies/enemies before the one-shot henchmen. 

That being said, there's not that many left out of characters that fit that bill.  Those two, F.F., Weather Report, Speedwagon, and I guess Risotto Nero are the only ones that come to mind.  Maybe Yukako and Trish too.  After you get the essentials covered, everything else is fair game.

I'm more interested to see how they are going to rape the names for this game's localization.

F.F. stands for Fauna Firearm.  Because plankton.

seeing how japan LOVES the assassination squad, this seems very plausible

i'd personally love to see that, even if he would make for the most annoying zoning character ever

Plankton is both plant and animal matter. Besides, the name's older than Grohl and Co. Worst comes to worst she'll just go by F.F.

Rather than reworking the theme of names I'd prefer they just force in Japanisations, like they've done with the Pillar Men or Green Day/Green Tea. For instance, Aeros Miss instead of Lil' Bomber, Spy's Gull instead of Spicy Lady.

Nice. Who knows if any part 3 will be in like Chaca, Devo, Alessi and etc.
Also wonder if they can use Midler for this. If Capcom did it, why not on this?

while araki designed midler, he might have done under capcom contract os it belonged to capcom, which is weird as heck for japan standars, but we did not get midler in jojo tv 2014 so that might be the case.

So that's why Midler looks different in the anime. I was disappointed on that.
I'm hoping for Midler too.

Hold on, did anyone state if it was going to be a "sequel" to ASB? Because all of the articles that I've seen stated only that it was going to be an "Adventure" game, and not a fighting game. Eh, this needs more clarification.
Here's the translated scan:


I'm just confused by a lot of things, first off CC2 made a whole new engine and they expressed their intent to keep releasing sequels and make a more proper fighting game (As in, more traditional, even though they kept calling it a JoJo game instead of a fighting game), also these scans are announcing some of the the two integral characters missing from ASB for a reason and CC2 are huge JoJo fans so I don't see them giving up the development of the game and full control to Bamco just like that, last but not least, the scans say "Genre: Stylish Tag JoJo Action", wasn't ASB also advertised as "Genre: Stylish JoJo Action"?

On the other hand, the promo material depicts two characters battling at the same time, so it would be an arena fighter like the DBZ games or J-Stars (Even though the scans mention "Tag" and that's not really "Tag"), the fact that CC2 isn't mentioned and that the game isn't "ASB2", "ASB Requiem" or "ASB anything" does imply that the game isn't related to the franchise CC2 wants to establish.

If we get both this and ASB2 that would be amazing, but to be honest if this isn't ASB2 I'll be a bit disappointed since I just want a new ASB2 already (And I'll eat my words if this game ends up being better than ASB) Also a huge issue I have with Arena Fighters is playing splitscreen or needing four systems and internet connection for locals (Since I'm mostly an offline player and that's one of the reasons why there's no Gundam VS scene here, it's too expensive and such a hassle to setup these locally)

Anyways as of now it's very if this game will be a true sequel or not so I'd just wait until confirmation to make a new topic or whatever.

The models are clearly those from ASB, and I don't think that Bamco could just take over those assets from CC2 even if CC2 only developed it for Bamco, something like that has never happened and I'm pretty sure there are contracts and copyrights for that. I'm 90% sure this is ASB2 made by CC2, they just changed the name because the tag system makes it a different game rather than a sequel, like how the Tekken Tag series is separated from regular Tekken iterations. I think they precisely don't want to just make "ASB2", they wanted to make something worth being a new game and not just an update, hence the tag system and the name change. Plus the tag system obviously makes it easier to reproduce stuff from the manga, particularly with unique teams from later parts, of course that supports the need for such a jump.
I'm not too worried, if we forget that CC2 made Naruto, there's no major reason to suspect a change from 2D to Naruto-like 3D gameplay, so far.

The genre for ASB was indeed "stylish JoJo action" but I can't remember if it said "maker : Bandai" or "CC2".
As for the 4 characters at once, I'm pretty sure they simply picked screenshots to showcase the tag system in action, and it'll allow both characters to attack at once, but it won't be 2-on-2 all the time I think. Tag action being a two-pronged attack with both characters, or even just some assist/support type of action. And the Dual Heat Attack is just a way to make use of specific tag teams to "recreate specific manga events".

The only thing I'm worried about is that they always said they had to go with 30 fps instead of 60 because of the "2 characters + 2 Stands", and now we can have twice that much at the same time on screen. Huh, right, that'll work... Good thing it's for PS4 too, but the PS3 version might have issues.
If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

And even then, when they showed the woman on the beach, it did not at all look like Midler's updated design.

DKDC: Yeah my post is pretty much a "expect the best but prepare for the worst" kind of scenario. PlayAsia's listing did say ASB2, also just handling the development to other studio or Bamco's own studio would mean that the new assets could end up looking very inconsistent compared to the old ones.

And yeah, the unstable framerate because of the stand + stand user on screen is a concern (Fatty's HHA slows down the game so much, Avdol's fire effect is up there too), so now having more characters... sure maybe the characters won't be on screen at the same time (Thus, Tag) but still.

Also the scan does mention "Heat Attacks" and I wager this was CC2's "shocking announcement" so there's that too

Ah, right, the "dual heat attack" keeping the name from ASB seems to me like it guarantees that it's still ASB system (CC2, 2D), only with tag.

Hm, the announcement for the playable demo says there will be 7 characters, but it only lists 6 names. Odd. Maybe they're keeping another surprise for that demo ? Nevermind, that Japanese text adds Kakyoin and the translation just forgot him.
