What do you think of this comic? And what do you like about the games in general?

In the games that I played at least, I love the world-traveling mode where you beat opponents in different ways and unlock new things that way. And I also like the Character Creation mode in the last few games (especially the fourth Calibur game). PB has been so kind enough to make a lot of characters for many of us RPM members, and that made me love Soul Calibur IV more and more.

I love the whole series, and the first 3 games (Edge, Calibur 1 and 2) are the games I still play since I have access to those games and the consoles they were released for.

Played Soul Edge (Still got a working copy of the PS1 game). And LOVED Edge Master mode.

Soul Calibur 1 had a damn cool Siegfried. Travelling the world collecting points for bonus stuff was fun.

Soul Calibur 2 was alright, should borrow that from a friend sometime.

Never played SC3 and SC4.

Nothing about the Soul Calibur x Star Wars crossover at all in that comic. >.>

I nearly got a hold of Calibur IV (PS3 edition)  during the 50% off sale at a local Gamestop that was conveiniently across a street from a Wal Mart.

I couldn't stand to read more than a page and a half of that comic. It gave me a headache.

But I have Soul Calibur 2, 3, and 4.

That doesn't mean I'm any good at them.
Title: Re: The Soul Edge/Blade/Calibur Thread
Post by: Kit on April 17, 2009, 10:38:55 PM
Well, the only problem I have with Soul Caliber 4 is that once someone gets you on the ground and into a good, ass-whuppin' combo WHILE being on the ground, you can have a crappy time getting back onto your feet.
Other than that I enjoy making naked characters of the forum members here.

I love the Soul Calibur series.  One of my favorite fighting games, and one of the few I'm actually decent in.  Maxi is my primary character.  He's so arrogant and flashy!  XD

Oh, and I'm going to take new pics of all the RPMers I've created with this with my newer, better camera phone or digital camera.  Also, I might tweak some characters around a bit too.  We'll see.

How many RPMers did you make?


Anyway I have all the Soul Calibur except Soul Edge (I gotta try it even just once) and I love this series too! Both the Character Creation mode were great in 3 and 4 but I like the original fighting styles in 3 as it made your character more unique and truly their own character though 4 has better customization (though I hate how the merged the two bottom layers from 3 into 4 making less pants to customize).

I'm pretty good with Taki and Mitsurugi and Siegfried. Though I excel greater with Talim as I like speed characters and strangely pretty good as Voldo despite I don't like the character that much.

I really like to see a Soul Calibur 5 someday soon!

Ah Soul Edge... spent quite a bit of time playing that. With Siegfried mostly, actually. Followed up with Nightmare in whatever later installments, for obvious reasons. I like playing with reach, and playing mind-games with my opponents... great fun.

never played Soul Edge.
played SC1 a couple times.
love SC2 to death.
hate SC3.
SC4 is great.

i find myself using the most Kilik, Mina, Sophie, Cassie, Lizzy, and Amy. and in SC2, Link was unstoppable.

I'm thinking of buying this. But I have a question:

The stuff to build customized characters from (weapons, techniques, armor, body shapes etc)... do you have to earn them or are they available from the start?

Cause I'd rather fight to get them.

Is there also some sort of Edge Master mode? Where you travel the world for missions and such?

You have to earn them.  Also, you have to earn money to buy them.  More become available as you play the game more.  Some you can download as well.  They have specific packs like Halloween & X-Mas packs.

I love the Soul Calibur series, despite only having been around since #2.  :-[  I believe i'm pretty decent at the series, though.

Going on Live with my Rikoh custom character on IV, though (Yun-Seong style), I realized that i'm lacking very much. Most of my battles were against pro players who could hit me once and entrap me in an endless combo.  :(

Nonetheless, I remain vigilant! One day, I shall make my character(s) up to spec, and kick at least SOME ass!

Namco Bandai Games reveals first handheld installment of weapons-based fighter franchise coming to Sony's portable this summer.

Weapons-based fighting game fans should be en garde, as Soulcalibur is making its first strike in the world of handheld gaming. Namco Bandai Games America today announced that Soulcalibur: Broken Destiny will be released exclusively on the PlayStation Portable this summer.

Mitsurugi is just as merciless on the PSP.

Using many of the fundamental mechanics of last year's Soulcalibur IV, Broken Destiny will feature a roster of more than 20 fighters. While gamers won't be able to play as Star Wars stand-ins Darth Vader, Yoda, or the Apprentice, the game will attempt to offset those losses with the addition of at least one new character, Dampierre.

Other additions include an expanded version of the character customization feature that let Soulcalibur IV players make a menagerie of unique-looking fighters to go along with the standard cast. Namco Bandai is also bolstering the series' staple arcade, versus, and survival options with a new single-player mode to ease beginners into the higher levels of play. Part-gameplay, part-tutorial, the new mode will feature more than 80 missions designed to teach players the ropes and hone their skills.

Soulcalibur goes portable and we get our first look at the latest addition to Namco's popular fighting franchise.

It has been 10 years since the original Soulcalibur graced the Dreamcast, and now the flashy weapon-based fighting game has moved over to the PlayStation Portable for the first time. Namco Bandai came by to give us a first look at Soulcalibur: Broken Destiny, made specifically for the PSP with many of Soulcalibur IV's features, plus enhancements and new characters. Your favorite Jedi masters, Yoda and Darth Vader, aren't going to make an appearance in this portable version, but we do know that the core cast of Soulcalibur will be included, along with a new member named Dampierre. Details were not given beyond a name, so we're supposed to come up with our own impressions by the character art below.

Director Noriyuki Hiyama from Namco gave us a quick overview of the game and highlighted some of the changes. Our demo consisted of a couple of matches, and we couldn't see much beyond a few initial menus. The character menu looked like it had enough slots for roughly 30 characters, but the final count hasn't been determined yet, since the developers are still working on the roster--there will definitely be more than 20, though. Taki, Mitsurugi, Tira, Astaroth, Ivy, Cassandra, Voldo, Siegfried, and Hilde were our only options for now, so we decided to pit the lethal whip-wielding Ivy against the burly katana-swinging Mitsurugi. As soon as we entered the match, it was like watching SCIV except on a smaller screen. The characters move with the same finesse and grace as they do in the console version, and the detailed visuals and over-the-top, epic-sounding music that SC has always been known for are included here. At this stage in development, the graphics and visual effects are quite impressive on Sony's handheld.

Broken Destiny isn't a port, though; the Project Soul team has built this version specifically to target beginners and novice players with SCIV's content but has added improvements. There will be arcade, versus, and survival modes, as well as a character creation mode, but the only details disclosed at this point are that there will be new parts to play with in the creation mode and that the other modes have been "evolved." What we do know is that a new single-player mode is being implemented to bring new players up to speed and show them the intricacies of the game--almost like an enhanced tutorial system. It is designed to help improve your fighting skills, so newcomers who might be intimidated by the series can find a way to ease into an intense fighting regimen. There are more than 80 exercise missions for you to hone your fighting skills in.

One of the features that Hiyama pointed out was that new lighting effects have been added so that the stages will have different times of day. You could be slicing your way to victory with a glorious sunset at your back instead of winning in broad daylight all the time. Key components of SCIV, like critical finish, soul crush, and armor destruction, are also included but have been improved. Our demo was limited in terms of finding out all the juicy details about the new additions, but we were told that the music was being rearranged so that it could complement the new stages.

There will be ad hoc so players can beat each other senseless in a local match, but we will have to wait to see whether Wi-Fi is a possibility as well. We were impressed with our brief look at Soulcalibur: Broken Destiny and will update you as soon as more information becomes available. The game is currently set to be released exclusively on the PSP this summer.

He's got bling. And that's the best "royal" design I have seen in awhile.

But now I need a PSP.. srsly. Just for select fighters, platformers, RPGs, and movies. Soul Calibur PSP is one of them, I do hope that SCPSP contains online battling~

But the PSP fighter outbreak is just like a certain flu that's making a ruckus.

Hmmmm, I don't think so.  I can't think of her off the top of my head anyway.

Also, I might try to construct more RPMers tonight.  Feel free to link to your character, and I'll see what I can do.

I've been thinking on and off about getting into SC. 3 did a lot to turn me away, after enjoying myself a good deal in SC1 and 2.

I might get it...eventually. After I clear up some other games in my backlog, and have room for ANOTHER FG this summer.  8D

UPDATE: I took some somewhat better pictures of Ciel, Kit, and Tsukagami, and also added Karai & Ibuki (Akira's character) as well.  I couldn't do Akira well enough, so I made Ibuki instead.  Also put an updated Sky Child on there too.  LoL, enjoy!

I'm sadder that all we got in its place was a crappy mission mode mostly made for gaining new custom parts and a "story mode" that's really just a shorter Arcade Mode and is the only mode in the game to utilize the potentially-awesome tag-team style of play and has actual ending cutscenes to "justify" beating the game with every single character in this mode.  B(

Here are two examples of the full Goddess Armor, which is what I think you think the Leviathan Armor is.  I have one of my own characters fully decked in the armor, cept for the helmet! The different between the two is the chest piece.  The first one is the Goddess Cuirass, which I think is the true addition to the armor, and the second is the Goddess' Blessing.  I prefer the second, being that the Goddess Cuirass does not allow you to have Chain Mail as an undergarment.  That's just me though.

Nope, the Leviathan armor is a full set for men only. You get it in the last 10 stages of the tower or by achieving 30+ honors I think.

I ended up getting about 27 honors in the game. I've been meaning to go for 30, but I play the game very infrequently now. I still can't get used to the control scheme of the game, so I end up just button-mashing most of the time, which works not too well.

17 years after SCIV? Interesting, instead of a few months or weeks from the previous entries though I'm curious on to what the characters will look like now that 17 years have passed.

By the way are the Bonus characters not coming back? I wish they do, but give them original fighting styles (the copy and paste thing just doesn't feel right for such unique characters).

Looking forward to seeing what they have up their sleeves.
Title: Re: The Soul Edge/Blade/Calibur Thread
Post by: Solar on May 11, 2011, 11:42:24 PM
Thinking about modes that should be in the game (other than Weapon Master of course) I remembered about SC2 Arcade's Conquest mode, and now I really want a new version of it with online. For anyone that doesn't know what that mode is, in SC2 it pretty much went like:

-You create a profile
-You choose a character and a nation (3 options in this case)
-You choose an opposite nation to attack and the profile of someone from that nation and then fight the ghost of 9 other players close to its skill and finally the one you chose. You rank up the same way as in Weapon Master in the console and the game stores your stats (attack, defense, you know, the usual).
-The more you win the more you conquer of the opposite country, so I guess you could say it ends up being some sort of tug of war for territory.

Now imagine if they somehow brought that mode back updated for online play, maybe even without the necessity of using ghosts.
Title: Re: The Soul Edge/Blade/Calibur Thread
Post by: VirusChris on May 12, 2011, 12:01:16 AM
Ah I remember that! Quite fun and I picked Talim with the profile name "AERO" at my College's Arcade of the game which unfortunately gotten taken away to somewhere I don't know many months after joining the College (I think it was about a year or 1.5 years before the school got rid of it). I still had to pay with quarters but it was a fun overall experience with the game and I've improved as a Talim player (though I main Mitsurugi now). Also wasn't there FOUR, not three nations to choose from? 'Cause I remember the colors red, blue, green, and yellow for each nation but I could be wrong.

I do hope they have something like that back with online player! Think of the fun that will be! ^_^


I honestly hope they're going to have at least one new character that dual wields swords with fast pace action and attacks! I love dual-wielding and they got it close with Algol and Shura, but not quite and Cervantes is a dual-wielder it's not the style I'm looking for. Something like Lloyd for the Tales Of series but unique to that character.

Well even if it doesn't happen I'll still get the game! I really wish I could've gotten the chance to play the original Soul Edge video game...

I'm hoping to see at least half or more of the original roster to come back, and if Ivy comes back (I never really was a big fan of hers) they might have to put more "less-revealing" clothes on her.

And I believe that Angol Fear won't be coming back either for obvious reasons if you think about leaving the last 3 Bonus Character as possible return to the series. It was quoted that "Shura won't be coming back" but never said the "Bonus Characters won't be coming back" which hints or possible suggest they would make a comeback... and please give them original styles, I loved them but they need fighting moves to define them.


Also do you think they'll add Dampierre in SCV? I wouldn't mind if he got included, he was such an interesting character!

I've already pre-order the game for the Xbox 360 so I'm all set to pick up the game when it comes out on release date if there's going to be a Midnight release. I think I'm going to try out the Character Creation Mode first then Story Mode! I can't wait to see what I can make!

I wonder if the CaC will have a Story Mode again or a better one at that.

I wonder if there's going to be more new characters to the game, hoping a true dual-wielding sword user (I don't consider Cervantes as a true twin sword user).
What are you guys going to do first when you get the game?

Interesting video! Thanks VixyNyan! :)


Something I like to point out is that the character Dampierre is an exclusive DLC character ONLY if you pre-order from BestBuy. Yup, if you want to get him as soon as you get the game you have to reserve a copy at BestBuy to get him. The GameStop exclusive is an Ivy Valentine bobble head figure, which isn't worth it to me.

It's possible has a pay later DLC in the future, but given how long it took for the Vader/Yoda DLC for the opposite took I rather get him right away. So I canceled my pre-order at GameStop and now have reserved a copy at my local BestBuy which is right near my GameStop store, but this time I picked the PS3 version as I'm thinking I have Soul Calibur on my 360 downloaed, Soul Calibur 2 for Gamecube, Soul Calibur 3 for PS2 (which is the only Console version), and Soul Calibur 4 for 360 so I said "Eh, what the heck? I rather have free online gameplay if I want to fight online and I have a wired connection for my PS3" and I like to expand on my PS3 collection.

If you want Dampierre early you have to pre-order at BestBuy!

Soulcalibur V Is Ready To Go, Dampierre DLC Exclusive To Best Buy (http://www.siliconera.com/2012/01/04/soulcalibur-v-is-ready-to-go-dampierre-dlc-exclusive-to-best-buy/)

PS: I was sorely ticked upon hearing it as I already plan to use my Reward Points from GameStop to take off $50 from my pre-order copy when it arrived so it will be paid in full with the money I already put down for the reserve.

Thanks for posting the videos Vixy! I haven't the first ones yet, but they were a nice treat! Though it kinda sucks that Pat, Pyrrha, and ZWEI are the only confirmed player characters for Story Mode. Aren't we allowed to use different characters in Story Mode with their own adventures like in old SC games? I kinda wanted something akin to SCIII (which I think had the best Story Mode, but then again I haven't played Soul Edge the first of Soul series games so I can't comment on that) with the cinematic experience the first two trailers gave.

Also it doesn't appear that our Created Characters will have a Story Mode this time around, unlike SCIII's Chronicles of the Sword Mode (which I liked very much though I wish it was a bit faster) and SCIV's inclusion of CaS into Story Mode with them getting either or both Soul Swords. I'm hoping there's more modes in, but oh well. I could just use VS Mode and make up a Story for my CaS cast.

Which version are you guys gettings? This time around I'm getting the PS3 Collection's Edition from BestBuy, which is pre-order, as to follow a strange trend I have with the series (SCI - Xbox 360Arcade, SCII - Gamecube, SCIII - PS2, SCIV - 360, SCV - PS3). Maybe I'll see you guys online! That would be awesome!


Oh, by the way Vixy I got Dazzle DVD Recorder HD for a Christmas Present so I'll be able to post pictures and videos of my gameplay like you! ^_^
I asked for either one, both normal or HD, since they're the same and my parents picked the one they thought best.

I can't wait to show our my CaS to you guys!

The last four characters revealed for SCV on the bottom row:

Alpha Patkrolos - Soul Calibur-wielding Patkrolos, minus shield, with Setsuka moveset (confirmed)
Omega/Evil Pyrrha (rumored to have Sophitia's moveset)
Inferno Kilik (rumor to be in and rumored to be a Male only mimic character)
Angel Sophitia/Elysia (rumored to be a Female only mimic character, appears in Soul Calibur V New Trailer 1 posted by Vixy after the 3min mark)

Can't post videos of it due to a copyright claim by Association of Copyright for Computer Software.

Here's links to download the video to the Alpha Patroklos gameplay:
http://www.megavideo.com/?d=L643INQI

Get it while it's hot!

So there we have it... this is the final (semi-confirmed) character roster list:
* Patroklos
* Z.W.E.I.
* Leixia
* Natsu
* Ezio
* Raphael
* Viola
* Pyrrha
* Siegfried
* Hilde
* Xiba
* Ivy
* Cervantes
* Aeon
* Tira
* Nightmare
* Mitsurugi
* Maxi
* Yoshimitsu
* Dampierre
* Voldo
* Astaroth
* Alpha Patroklos (Setsuka moveset)
* Angel Sophitia/Elysium (Female Mimic)
* Edge Master (All Mimic)
* Algol
* Inferno Kilik (Male Mimic)
* Omega/Evil Pyrrha (Sophitia moveset)


Then again there's no proof that the two mimic characters, the mimic male or female, are going to be playable. So Angel Sophitia/Elysium and Inferno Kilik could more or less be playable with a different moveset.
Your thoughts people?

My thought is that Kilik looks badass but it feels really lazy if they really are all mimics, even if it's mimics of the characters not in the game as some say.
Title: Re: The Soul Edge/Blade/Calibur Thread
Post by: VirusChris on January 21, 2012, 02:43:30 AM
Well the mimic part isn't TOTALLY confirmed yet, but it seems that way. Also I like Kilik's Phoenix motif for his costume, very cool. And going what other people have theorizes, it is the new Nightmare might be Hilde's father given that her father disappear and the new Nightmare is serving a royal and since Hilde's father is a king he knows how royalty works out and such.

Also I have some speculations on why some characters aren't returning in Soul Calibur 5.

I had this bobbling in my head for sometime and I came up with some reasonable excuses why some characters didn't return for Soul Calibur 5, given the story of SCV and the stories of the past characters. This is just me theorizing, so take as you will but it by no means is canon or possible not even close to what the developers have in mind. Let me start.

Yun-seong: The reason why Yun-seong doesn't come back is the easiest one, he original left on his journey to find Soul Edge, right? The was the reason I believe... and it was to get Soul Edge to help him end the war as he felt powerless to save his country. Now from Mitsurigi's story, he rush back home because he heard about the war coming to a close and wishes to take part of it but when he arrived it was over. Yun-seong mentions that Mitsuirigi is an enemy of his country so which leads me to believe that the war ended, the very war that Yun-seong wanted to win to save his country.

Seeing as the war is done there's no point of searching for Soul Edge so he heads home and completes his training at his old schoo.

Talim: The reason I believe Talim doesn't return was so she could purify the powers of the Soul Swords, return them to their true forms or removing their power take it as you well. And because of the events of SCIV the Soul Swords seemingly lost their power for 17 years and Talim has no reason to look for them again as their, in a sense, purify or their power removed like she wanted. It's possible she followed Yun-seong or return home to take care of her village and people and become a proper Wind Priestress.

Seong Mina: I think her reason is easy to explain as well. The whole point of her journey was to search for Yun-seong and bring him back home, and stop him from attaining Soul Edge as she knows it is an evil sword that will corrupt him. With both Soul Swords gone and the war over which was the reason why Yun-seong went after Soul Edge in the first place he returned home with Seong Mina back to the dojo. Also she is to be wed to Hwang, right? So she's probably married and raising a family no, and with the Soul Swords gone she has no reason to travel again.

Zasalamel: This one is a tricky one and I'm not sure this justifies his reasons for not returning to SCV. By the end of SCIII and by the events SCIV, Zasalamel is intrigued by the process of man in the future as he saw a vision about an airplane and how man learn how to create air travel and wishes to see what other marvelous things mankind will make in the future. Originally using the Soul Swords to end his immortal life, he now wishes to stay immortal to see how far mankind will go and such there's no reason for him to watch over the Soul Swords and start exploring the world and help push mankind to a greater future and push their limits beyond (like in his SCIV ending).

Cassandra: Honestly... I have nothing on this one. She's mostly likely alive, but she does want to protect the bonds of her family and the only reason I can think of why she isn't around is because she's searching for Tira for murdering her sister (mostly likely if Sophitia really did die) and search for Pyrrha. I think she left the care of Patroklos to her brother-in-law Rothion but didn't hear of his illness and death until much later and by the time Patroklos is gone, raising himself and joining an army. With no clues left she continues to search for the one that destroyed the bonds of her family and looks for her long-lost niece.


That's it! I believe these sound plausible enough to be the reason why these characters were omitted from the story. Your thoughts people?

Also it seems like, or possible fan speculations, that the characters I mention above could be available as DLC or their styles will be DLC.

Quote
If you look closely, you can see that Kilik is wielding several different weapons aside from his usual rod. This seems to confirm the rumors that Kilik will be a mimic character, copying the move sets of all the male characters. A leaked photo of a female character depicting a similar looking mask, named Elysium, seems to suggest then that she'll mimic the moves of the female characters then.

Has anyone else been playing SCV yet?

I played through the Story mode and the offline modes mostly. I haven't played online yet. It's fun for the most part. I did make a few characters in the Character Creation mode including a Mari Makinami in her school uniform (sort of). Is it just me or is there less items to use in it than in Soul Calibur 3 and 4?

You have to unlock the rest of them by leveling up and every two levels you get new creation items, but yeah it does feel less and you start out with 65% of the creation items. They plan to release more through DLC. I have the PS3 version, which version did you get?

I've beaten Story Mode already and unlocked all characters, and I've finished Legendary Souls which took me 43 minutes to beat... damn AI. I haven't played online yet either and I'm trying to practicing using Mitsurigi and the Devil Jin style CaS which the WGF is tough to perform correctly.

Here's my character from Soul Calibur V's Create-a-Soul Mode, Chris Corona, who uses the Soul of Devil Jin:

Come on, your Sakura Matou right? You should have a much upbeat attitude than that! XD
But yeah Dampierre will be available at a much later date, sometime in March/April seeing the DLC list for February was revealed. Also practice makes perfect, I'm still trying to get the Devil Jin WGF fast input command down! Getting closer as I'm pulling it off more but no in consecutive order.

I also have a PS3, would you like to buddy up?

Don't know much about him, but yeah it's a good CaS character version of him there.

It's very hard to find the right kind of gear to get his cloak/jacket or whatever and because of the jacket I couldn't add a belt... how does that crash with the jacket?! Makes no sense, I think there are people who wear jackets AND belts at the same time.

Makes no sense that a belt can't be wore under a jacket in the Creation Mode.

Hey there, guys! I manage to create the Servants from the Fate/stay night game in Creation Mode using what I've unlocked so far for CaS parts and I made a video of the Servants fighting each other as CPU vs CPU with the Very Hard difficulty on. Funny thing is this is the second recorded of the fights and the first time around the same order of Servants I picked had the opposite opponent winning instead (ex: 1st record Lancer beats Archer, 2nd record Archer beats Lancer, etc...).

Please note that I haven't unlocked the Elf Ear CaS part yet, need to be Player Level 46 to get it and I was LV30 when I recorded this, so Caster is Elf Earless in this video.

It was tricky figuring out what part suited the best to recreate the Fate/stay night characters' look the best as some parts removed other or changed some parts of how the outfit looked. And I sucked at picking voices I bet, really there isn't a lot of options and I can't seem to get the right kind of voice even though the dialogues seem to fit the characters perfectly.


Here's the video:
[youtube]A4nRwcJWxs4[/youtube]


However I like to say the video quality is... lagging to say the least. Upon recording it a second time, the same audio lag exist so the audio is delayed which makes it annoying to watch and listen when the video and audio don't sych up.

I'm trying to fix this problem in Pinnacle Studio 14, but no one seems to want to help or know how to fix it. I've tried different settings for recording, but the lag is still there, so I don't know if it's my laptop (then again I have it running a lot so maybe a break in between and starting it up then record will make it better) or I might need to replace the PS3 wires for video and audio as the cable is slightly broken if you move it out of place you hear static instead of perfect sound and the screen darkens.

If you know how to fix the video/audio lag in Pinnacle Studio 14 so I can record perfect HD videos, please contract me or tell me in this thread.

Enjoy and please tell me what you think!

I don't know much about Soul Calibur's fighting and customization options, but the servants and weapons look pretty much as close as can be. I'm impressed you were this thorough, no character looked out of place in my eyes. Maybe you can try creating Tsukihime characters as well, when you get the chance.

Although that might be more of a challenge, as most of them are not armored.

Thanks! I haven't unlocked all the CaS parts yet, but when I unlock a few more I might attempt making the Tsukihime characters. I hope I'll have a few slots left to make them, it's going to be awhile. Also some weapons, like the ones Archer is using, cannot be edited so I had to stick it with what it had and pick which was kinda close to the style and color of their weapons.

Not all CaS parts have armor on them, but it will be tough to recreate with what I got and how limited the CaS system can be at times.

I got both versions of Akiha done. ^_^
And I just see your post Archetype.

I'll post the next videos of them, and the Fate/Zero cast I made as well, after I get to Player Level 53 so I can get that apron CaS part for Kohaku and Hisui as it's the last part I need to add. Also I even made Shirou and Rin as well!

Currently working on the Touhou cast and I'm running out of room.
I'm making Reimu (done), Yukari (done), Sanae (semi-done), Marisa, Alice, Yuyuko, Youmu, Reisen, Remilia, Sakuya, Hong Meiling, Flandre, Patchouli, Koakuma, Aya, Orin, Okuu, Yuka, Suika, and Yuugi.

I'll probably have them done by tomorrow and upload the videos on YouTube (which I hope doesn't take too long).

Just to let everyone know I've got Remilia, Sakuya, Hong Meiling, Patchouli, Flandre, Koakuma, Aya, Orin, and Cirno left to make. Good dear lord I'm almost done AND I ran out of slots... that's a first for me. :<
I got carried away... and I did the best I could with the CaS parts I have available and that is in the game... I wish the business suit was still in the game, it would be perfect for Reisen to wear and I can't seem to find a good shirt for her to wear that seems "normal" on her without coming off weird and out-of-place. I wish Namco gave Project Soul more time to work on this, it would've shined even more along with more CaS parts.

By the way are the Angel Wings DLC? I had to use the Demon/Devil Wings for Okuu, which do not fit her "hell raven" look at all.
Once I'm done I'll upload videos based on each series of the characters to YouTube. Hopefully I'll be done by tonight!

Posted on: February 07, 2012, 08:25:01 PM
OK, I finally got them uploaded! My Create-a-Soul Recreations of the characters from Fate/stay night, Fate/Zero, Fate/Extra, Tsukihime, and Touhou! Sorry about the quality of the video, I didn't want to record the audio from the game so I change the settings to remove them (I have no idea why the Custom options couldn't do it) so the quality of the video is a little mucky at first but you can still view the models just as accurately.

(You know I could've just UNPLUG the audio cables on the Dazzle to record without audio, wasn't thinking ahead of time about that. Common sense Chris! Well now I know so I'll be prepared next time).

Soul Calibur V: Tsukihime CaS Cast (You know I LOVE how King Records has nothing to do with Ali Project and the music got removed. >:3 )

Soul Calibur V: Touhou CaS Cast

Took, I think, over 20 hours for YouTube to upload them all so sorry if taking my time with these. Please tell me what you think of my recreations with the options I had to make sure they are as close as possible with the limitations the CaS system had!

Enjoy!

Everyone looks great to me. I think I like Gilgamesh and Arcueid the most (sorry Saber). I wish all the male body types weren't so big and muscular, Shiki and Shirou need to look skinny. And Fate/Zero Lancer looks like he has a dead cockroach on his face.

... Speaking of Shiki, mind creating Ryougi as well?

Oh brother... I have to delete someone or create a new save file. I have to create a new User to do that or was it something else? I completely ran out of the 50 character slots so far. I really wish at this point we can add more character slots by using the console's memory space... and possible have a separate character slots for customize the SC cast.

And that's suppose to be Zero Lancer's Beauty Mark, but sadly that's the SMALLEST size available for it.

And you're not the only one to ask about Shiki Ryougi as well. I wonder what others think of my CaS Cast?

You can delete one of the versions of Akiha.

And that's suppose to be Zero Lancer's Beauty Mark, but sadly that's the SMALLEST size available for it.

I know that's his mark, but you'd think character customization would have a standard mole.

Well seeing as it's a RECOLOR of Akiha, I guess I can go with the CRV version of Akiha. I'll just write down the formula I used to make her and the picture setup too.

I'll post a picture of Shiki Ryougi as soon as possible... by the way, do you like Fate/Extra? Might I interest you in my fanfic version of it? Some people enjoy it very much and it's up to 6 chapters so far with focuses mainly on the MC and Caster as the Servants with a few extra twists not in the game as well.

Good work as always, but there's one thing I don't like about Shiki. Her hair doesn't sit well with me, also she only uses one knife.

Sadly there's not a lot of options for Female Hairstyles, and there isn't any character that simply use one knife and Natsu's fighting style is the closest. Gotta work with what I got.

Post by: Sapphire Knight on March 07, 2012, 12:26:41 AM
Hmm... Now that I think about it, since Elysium, the spirit of Soul Calibur, is an Edgemaster of female characters, I believe that they should've made Nightmare, the spirit of Soul Edge, into the Edgemaster of male characters instead of Kilik.

Title: Soul Calibur II HD Online (Fall 2013, PSN and XBLA)
Post by: ViperAcidZX on July 22, 2013, 06:16:19 PM
I hope I don't get banned for bringing up news in this thread...

Quote from: Joystiq
We're honestly a little disappointed that the debut trailer for SoulCalibur 2 HD Online doesn't welcome us back to anything, like say, a historical stage of some sort, but we are pretty jazzed about how good these updated character models and arenas look. We're also still looking for confirmation as to whether any souls still burn.

When the game launches on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 sometime this fall, its fresh online mode will be powered by "brand new netcode overseen by the Project Soul development team," according to the press release tucked away after the break. The game will also feature every mode from the original version, including the epic single-player "Weapon Master" mode and its dozens of hours of infuriatingly difficult content.
