I still cry myself to sleep at night because of my inaction. :cry:
 
SRK member Arc-Rail has taken the time to translate the recent Capcom Japan Developer Blog post regarding Yang. It's a great read for anyone interested in Yang's move set and abilities. This is the first part of more translations to come next week.


-About Yang No. 1-
Greetings. This is the Developer Blog.
The release date for new costumes on home consoles has been announced. We put our all into making them, so please do enjoy these as well!
This time brings us the younger brother of the twins, Yang. I'd like to talk about his normal moves.

General Concept
As in SFIII:3S, his image is similar to Yun's. SSF4 AE's tuning continues that approach.
He fights with quick attacks at short to medium range, stopping the enemy from acting with closely spaced strings. He is a character who pressures his opponent with a combination of strikes and grabs.
The potential of his short-range moves is extraordinarily high, so "how to get close to the opponent" should be an important point.
Since his debut his physical strength has been below average, so he cannot afford to take heavy damage. Please be cautious of this.

Normal Attacks
Like Yun, Yang has the same lineup of normal moves that he did in SFIII:3S.
From among those, I think I'll bring up a few for representative purposes.

Standing Light Punch has significantly short recovery time, and a long reach compared to most light attacks.
It can be used as a poke, and leads to various combos on hit.

Close Medium Kick: like in SFIII:3S, connecting with this will put the opponent into a juggle state for follow-up damage.
Once again, it can be jump-canceled on hit or block in order to continue your offense.

Crouching Medium Kick is central to his offense, Yang's attack of choice.
Like in SFIII:3S, it is special-cancelable, comboing into Tourou Zan (mantis slashes) for example. I think you will find quite a lot of chances to make use of this.

From long range, Yang can use Far Hard Punch as a poke. It takes a little while to extend, but you can aim to land some good hits at the fingertip area.

Unique Attacks (Command Normals)
Yang has 2 Unique Attacks: Senpuukyaku (whirlwind leg) and Raigekishuu (thunderbolt kick).
The position at which these brothers can start the dive for their Raigekishuu is similar to Rufus's dive - it won't come out at extremely low altitudes, but the Light, Medium, and Hard versions will descend at varying angles. You may want to make skilled use of these dives to take the fight to close quarters.
Senpuukyaku is an off-the-ground overhead move. You can use it to evade a low attack while scoring a hit.

Target Combos
There are 3 target combos for Yang.
TC1 (Towards-jump Medium Kick -> Down-Towards + Medium Kick),
TC2 (Standing Medium Punch -> Standing Hard Punch -> Back + Hard Punch),
TC3 (Standing Light Kick -> Standing Medium Kick -> Standing Hard Kick).

TC1 is a Target Combo from Towards-jump Medium kick.
If you use the two strikes skillfully to land a hit on an opponent below you, you'll earn some considerable frame advantage.

TC2 is common to both brothers.
The final hit, activated with Back + Hard Punch, is super-cancelable.

TC3 starts with a Light Kick, so since it comes out fast, there are many opportunities to use this Target Combo.
If all the hits are blocked, Hard Kick will push the opponent back a good distance, so it can be difficult for them to land a counterattack.
TC3 once more includes Standing Medium Kick, but in this game it can be jump canceled. Please look for the possibilities that come from this.

[quote name='Esper']I think I'll see a resurgence of Makoto players popping up online.[/QUOTE]

Maybe they will outnumber the Ryu players! =D ... =| ... =(

I hate it when I have to fight the same character 8/10, it gets oooold. How can so many people play the same character the exact same way with zero originality? No variety!
 
[quote name='Mr. Beef']Looks like Justin finally got his revenge against Gamerbee. :O[/QUOTE]

But, gamerbee got back his revenge in losers final. Gamerbee ended up winning the tournament coming out of losers final and beating momochi.
 
[quote name='Jimbo Slice']Man that SSF4 vid was pretty rad. Some of those combos are insane to pull off, let alone online.[/QUOTE]

'dat japanese internet, I WANT IT! I know it won't solve much considering how far away players are from each other in the USA compared to Japan... but still!

[quote name='PhrostByte']I don't even notice that many Ryus online. I see tons of Guile, Bison... uhhhhhhh.......... some Ken I guess.[/QUOTE]

Lucky.
 
[quote name='PhrostByte']Eh.. not quite. I'd rather fight Ryu than Guile or Bison. Those are my most difficult matchups I think.[/QUOTE]

The Ken population seemed to have slowly shifted to Ryu near the middle/end of SFIV, so it's been a non-stop onslaught. Guile and Bison would be a nice change of pace, but then I'd end up getting sick of them and eventually hating on them too. The cycle would start all over, but at least I wouldn't hate Ryu anymore.
 
A good Ryu is pretty much the only thing that really intimidates me online. Actually, I finally came across an Ibuki that knew what the fuck was up and it was pretty embarrassing for me.
 
hey markman, where can i play tekken in tokyo? there's too many arcades and i want to fight a variety of people, not just one dude who dodges me anyway

On the Yamanote line, go to Sugamo. There's Game Carrot Sugamo which is HELLA close off the train station exit.

You can't miss it. It looks like this:

It goes underground. It's near a pachinko parlor.

That's where NO Respect plays and a lot of top tokyo players.

Also in Shinjuku there is joybox, but that's a shit hole of an arcade. I'd recommend Game Carrot over all (for TEKKEN).

Have fun!
 
arg. sugamo is on the other side. i'm near akihabara...

and tonight is my last night...

...sleep early, or play tekken? i bought a card and i only used it to play the computer, haha....

Tekken >>> Sleep, come on, you know this, bro. . .
 
kainzero! It's not that bad, just tough it out on the train

OH YEA sorry, I didn't mean to ignore the WWE thing.

:)

I won't say anything yet.
 
Totally worth it at that price... I think I'm going to wait out the third costume pack since Blanka is the last costume to be released. :(

Might not even care about the game enough at the time to get it.
 
[quote name='JEKKI']Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright

most hypest fighting game ever.

EVER!![/QUOTE]

GET HYPE! Day 1

[quote name='Mr. Beef']The complete character costume pack for Vanilla SFIV is three bucks and some change on PSN. It's tempting as fuck...[/QUOTE]

That's about as much as Chac's lawyerin' fees.

Madness.

How long is the complete pack on sale on psn? If its a glitch i hope its still there by tonight.


I just realized that its still probably glitched for me to buy the complete pack since i used the classic pack code way back when.

At least a week, most likely. It's in the PSN Sales section, or whatever they call their sales section. I don't even remember what a lot of the Vanilla alt. costumes look like.

Damn have you been online alot lately or something? I'd say you are on less frequently than I am. I've been playing alot of Starcraft 2 so I'm on the 360 alot less. I'll check on xbox.com to see if youre on more often and we can throw down before you go away man.
