Dashing

The people have spoken, and even though the poll is still available it's clear where the interest is going.

So here you go: Dashing!


Double-tap either left or right to dash foward or backwards. Dashing can be used as a way to move quickly around the arena. Defensively, it can help you step out quickly out of a short range attack. Offensively, it can rush you into your opponent for a fast approach and then combo with a few good hits.

First Open Poll

As you might have noticed, there's a poll up there for you to say what you'll like to be developed for the new Beta 05. Remember that it's still a Beta release, so not all details of your selection might be fully available but at least there will be more developed than the other option from the poll.

The poll closes on October 4th.

If you selected option 'Other' then please comment on this post about what it is you'll like to see.

New Beta Previews

Although there isn't an exact date for its release, the Closed Beta 05 is under development and will inlcude new stuff, some of them are:


Dynamic display that shows what are you listening to

Even though the fact that you can use external mp3 music in the game has been announced already it was yet to be implemented. This images correspond to the lower left corners of the menu screen showing the name and artist performing the song. This block appears for a short while to show the player what he/she is listening to and then fades away. Something very similar to what you've seen on menu screen of EA games.


Blocking


The image speaks for itself, the concept of blocking your opponents attacks can't be missing on a fighting game. Will it allow in the future to have several effects such as Parrys and Counters? Only time will tell.


New Moves


Here we have Betaman using his special attack with Down + B, the next Beta will most surely include even more moves!
