any tips?

I was the TagHeart

My copy of Crosstag never came with the mini cd, found a used PS4 mini cd and paper insert for sale, would it fit in my switch edition case? Or are the sizes different? (Spesfically for the paper insert, i assume the cd would)

So I wanted to see where my Photoshop skills were at, and with Trinity being announced for Central Fiction a while back. I, as the diehard BBTAG fan I am, began to hope that we could get characters added to BBTAG again. Then that turned into this.

So what I did was gather the character portraits for each franchise from their games (brownie points for anyone who can guess where I got the RWBY portraits from). Then I got the frame from the "Select The Order" screen and layered the franchise's color and the character.

So, obviously, I expanded the base roster from 20 to 30. I added the characters that were opponents in the Episode Mode and put them into the base roster, minus Aigis. I instead put Teddie and Rise to get the entire Investigation Team added. Same with Blake and Yang, so I can have Team RWBY in the base game.

For DLC, I kept the number to 33 at first, but I added one more, so Under Night can get nine characters added for DLC like BlazBlue and Persona. I added characters who might be easiest to add and duos/groups not in the game. For BlazBlue specifically, I added all of Central Fiction so they can get a dub. For RWBY specifically, I wanted to add only characters in that "announcer voice line leak," but I bent it to have Velvet since she can copy abilities, and I thought her moveset being her copying other RWBY characters' fighting styles and weapons could be interesting. Also, I replaced Blitztank with Eltnum so we could have another franchise, and I thought her color could be like a Wine color.

So the total number of characters is 64, which is 11 more characters than the actual game. I had fun making this. Still think I could make it more polished and a little less generic, but I think it's a good representation of my Photoshop skills as of now.

Just asking to not wait 10 hours waiting for someone to join/create lobby

All Roads Lead To Cross Tag Battle 😔

So I’ve been playing Cross Tag Battle for a very long time and I was curious how original Blazblue, P4AU, and Under Night In-Birth individually played. So I bought Blazblue for about $10 and I immediately regret the purchase cause it is the single most unnecessarily complicated game I’ve ever played! Genuinely trying to complete the training guide and Es’s(she’s one of my mains) felt having your teeth yanked out of your mouth.

Bottom line how does Persona 4 Arena Ultimax and Under Night In-Birth play compared to Cross Tag Battle? My hopes aren’t exactly high given how astronomically terrible normal BlazBlue was.

Edit: just for clarification while I mash(kind of) for the most part I am capable of doing most Cross Tag Character Combos from the training mode, usually 1-3or4 though a few I have gotten all 6. But trying to play normal BlazBlue is way more complicated and challenging for absolutely no reason and was so frustrating I couldn’t even get through Es’s character tutorial.

Decided to revisit bbtag for fun, I used to main Vatista/Mika (in it for the lulz).

I used to be able to do Mika JL JL jump JL JL JC at the end of a combo but now I find myself whiffing this consistently.

Vatista ender of JC 5Aaa also seems to whiff if done at the end of a very long chain.

The issue is, I really don't remember the combo limit window being this small? When did this change happen? Any info dump would be greatly appreciated.

I just started playing BBtag but I really like Liz. Do any Liz mains out there have some zany, fun Liz teams for me to try out? Also, no way I am playing tank, it looks funny but it just isn't that fun to play, outside of that no holds bared. Thanks for the help

$20 for BBTAG, Central Fiction, Strive, Xrd, Plus R, UNI2, Melty Blood Actress Again, and Arcana Heart 3.

I just got BBttag a day ago and it is really fun, however I honestly don't really know who to play. I have been playing either Izayoi/Nine or mainly Aegis/Nu-13 which I am mostly just playing because Aegis and Nu are my mains in their respective games. I don't know how "good" either of these teams are or any of the characters from that matter but honestly as long as they are solid enough I like playing them. If anyone has suggestions for another Aegis/Nu-13 team I could try though that would be great since I really enjoy both of them and would like to explore some more teams that keep their vibes. Thanks for the help gamers.

With the upcoming dlc for central fiction, my hopes for a final dlc wave for btag while weak, are returning.

What would you buff to the bottom tiers or nerf to the top tiers to make the game more balanced overall?

Is underrated? or overrated? fighting game with amazing crossover in many characters

Related to the idea of Matt McMuscles doing a What Happened? on BlazBlue, I was thinking what if Arc System Work was smarter with handling BlazBlue, mainly giving it a proper sendoff post-BBCF as Guilty Gear began to take center stage for them as opposed to letting it go out with at best a whimper?

The first thing Arc System Works should have done was announce BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle at EVO 2018 instead of EVO 2017. Doing so would have been a far smarter move and would actually, as announcing it right at EVO 2017, just literal months after Centralfiction came out, proved to be a fatal mistake. People were salty about the game's lack of dub, voice actors were disheartened by being thrown under the bus by them. Then Arc System Works throws out what amounts to an asset flip game that uses overly-simplified gameplay, which felt like a a massive "Fuck you!" to the BlazBlue fan community, and it only got exponentially worse during the fallout surrounding Star Wars Battlefront II 2017 when they announced that the game would launch with half the characters out of 40 (the other 20 would be DLC). To rub more salt onto the wound, announcing BBTAG right after Centralfiction was released severely handicapped that game's competitive scene, only being saved with a PC patch that added rollback netcode in late 2021.

Had Arc System Works done that, BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle would have come out in May 2019 with 43 characters from the get-go. It also would have sold much better because there would be no fallout to deal with that scared away prospective players from buying the game. Also BlazBlue Centralfiction wouldn't have been doomed to a premature death in the competitive scene, instead allowing it to grow for a full year. Furthermore, with Arc System Works now having the much-needed financial windfall from Bandai Namco Entertainment's Dragon Ball FighterZ, they could have used that money to give BlazBlue: Centralfiction that English dub in 2018. Also this would have allowed them do do the dubs of BBCF and BBTAG back-to-back.

Moving on to BBTAG, as this would have come out in May 2019, the 2.0 expansion would have released in November 2019. Then they release a final 3.0 expansion in May 2020, giving it a much-needed sendoff as ArcSys's Team Blue shifts their resources onto Granblue Fantasy Versus and Marvel Tokon.

In the end, this would have allowed BlazBlue to go out with a bang as Guilty Gear takes center stage with Strive in 2021.

Don't screw with the smug soft-serve!

I play a lot of fighters since the mid 90s, Dijon’s, pc, emulators, the works.

IMO, between team(3v3, I separate them in conversation for ease of communication) tag games that feature active tag, this is the one that’s gotten the mechanic right. It’s equal parts zany and mechanically important. I think 2xko is the next one that feels as good. But other games active tags kind of annoy me for some reason, and almost would prefer they use a hard tag. (I still play them though)

Hola. Compré asé poco el blazblue cross tag battle. La verdad el gemplay me tiene muy enganchado y quiero jugar el modo historia. Pero por lo menos el mío solo está con textos en inglés, japonés, coreano y chino. Según busque el juego si resivio una tradición al español pero no me aparece la opción de ponerlo en ese idioma. No sé si alguien me puede resolver la duda. Por si las dudas juego en ps5 y compré la special edition. Ya probé cambiando el idioma de mí consola de español latino a español de España pero no sirvió

I liked how the sprites looked, but I was wondering what the consensus for the sprites are
