I would have to assume the online only stuff is just a beta thing.

No offline mode is death for a games tournament viability once people actually start attending in person again.

Aren’t other fighting games online only like sf5 or is this actually the first one?

There's a few that will boot you to the menu if you get d/ced while in online mode (like SFV) or where you can't unlock anything without internet (MK11, fight money in SFV) but can't think of any that will straight up let you not play if there's no connection.

The lobbies are still laggy and unresponsive. Rematch option is nice but they went and made it ft2 instead of infinite rematch.

A lot of the complaints are about butchered characters. Saw a vid of many jump-ins just completely not working against crouched characters lol. This shit gonna have to be delayed.

played a bunch after work, game seems fun though i'm super trash at it. mostly been playing ino, very impressed at the quality of netplay.

[Nitsuki]

Game still feels great but doesn’t feel as free as the first open beta. It’s still a ton of fun either way.

FAB vs Nage had an insane match at Red Bull Kumite, i recommend watching it if you wanna see some crazy ass play with Pot vs Faust.

[Krandor]

It blows my mind every GG how fucking good FAB is

Custom lobbies up to 9 players, online training mode, mission mode (about 120 missions).

Jumps will receive a buff due to negative feedback from previous beta.

Well I feel like between those videos we know who some of the season pass characters are considering how heavily they're featuring them

Jack-O, Goldlewis, That Man/Asuka, and Happy Chaos (the blue guy)

Needs more Baiken though.

July 2021

• Additional Character #1 – New playable character.

August 2021

• Additional Character #2 – New playable character.

After Fall 2021

• Additional Characters #3, #4, and #5 – New playable characters.
• Additional Battle Stages – Two new battle stages.
• Another Story

[Nitsuki]

Character 1 will be totally new to the series, character 2 will be a vet.

[Krandor]

Applying logic based on the perceived story I'd assume

1 - Goldlewis
2 - Jack-O
3/4/5 - Happy Chaos/That Man/idk maybe Johnny

[Nitsuki]

Would make sense if season 1 is tied to the story, tho i don’t think anyone wants Jack-O, but she’s there soooooo yea. We likely won’t see the vets coming back until season 2.

[Moridam]

not terribly surprising since it's the first big offline major to return, but strive @ ceo already capped at 512 entrants

Steam announcement.

In preparation for our upcoming Steam launch, we wanted to share a brief notice regarding 4K resolution support.

Guilty Gear -Strive- does support 4K resolutions, however we are aware the game is experiencing severe slowdowns during specific situations in battle (generally when counter-hitting), and during specific scenes in Story Mode.

At this time, we would like to urge users to refrain from using 4K resolutions for online gameplay, while we continue to fix the issue. However, setting graphics quality to the lowest does help alleviate the issue a little.

We thank you all for your support of Guilty Gear -Strive-, and please stay tuned future updates.
