Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm: Generation

[Chatto]

About the substitution: It did NOT take skill in the last game to use substitution. Everyone was just mashing the sub until it just happened.

I was not among those who complained about that, I had no problem with the mechanics in the older games, but this sub-bar addition brings a new element to this game. You can't just stand there and spam the sub until it happens -> Ultimate to the back. This was the biggest problem in Storm 2. Here the sub is easier to do, but it's also limited, so you can not just mash the button, that way you'll just get screwed.

For another thing, Ultimates are now WAY harder to hit with. And I appreciate that. Now the fights won't be Sub+UltimateX3=Game over. They fixed a lot of issues with the earlier game, but it seems that almost no one is okay with it. If this game sucks so hard, go play Storm 2 or something, I don't care.

My reply is to the sentence marked above:

First of all, people might have had a chance to button smash the substitution but at least they had a fair chance to get away from combos, sure, now people wont use it as much, but what was the point of changing the system? all you are left with now is people who will intentionally make you use all your logs and then smash your soul out with like 40 combos before you get to use a log again.

and the worst thing is, when i play with my friends, if i get caught in a combo, i have NO WAY to get away from it, so i might as well just put down my controller and rest my fingers while my friend is busy beating the heck out of me.

They should have at least added a way for people to get out of the combos..

Other than this it its a cool game

I played the demo of the game, while the demo was piece of cake after getting used to the new system, I can still see how this would be an issue. Since in the demo, the AI is very slow. So I'm worried that everyone will be avoiding each other too much, taking too much distance and throwing shurikens once in a while. Even though it looks "okay" in the gameplay videos, I can see how it would turn into who ever is best at keeping the substitution bar above the opponent's, this means every person has to counter each other constantly.

Hmm, and like you said here, you would get stuck in the combos. It would definitely help if we could custom-select our ninja tools in this matter. For example having a set amount of ninja tools you are able to select, and from that, it would determine your secondary strategy. Be it multiple-shadow-clone-jutsu ninja tool to get away from a constant combo, or pinning your opponent to the ground with needles like Pain does to Naruto in Sage Mode (in the Anime / Manga) - Or something else. I think adding such things would bring more strategy and then the "impossible-to-counter" combos would be more forgiving.

Either way I'm buying the game when it comes out in Europe. Just hope this one doesn't disappoint me as much as the overly abused substitution jutsu did in UNS 2. Generations will definitely be more interesting though, that's what I think (without the overly abused substitution in mind).

Hehe, of course they will intentionally make you use your sub bar. Isn't that like intentionally getting your opponents chakra down so that you could use combos on them in the earlier games? It is true that the sub bar takes a bit too much time to recharge, but at least you can use combos here easier than in the previous titles.

The intent here is that you must be more careful in how you use those limited subs. You can't just rely on getting out of combos all the time, it's your own fault if you get into that situation.

The problem I have with the substitution system isn't the bar, no, but it's the fact that even if you use a substitution you still land right on top of the same attack, causing you to get hit even if you used a sub. Either that or just use your whole bar to avoid one attack. That's just stupid. I mean really. Have you had experience with this kinda stuff? That is my only complaint with the fighting system.

I'm glad the new substitution bar is here. In storm 2 I could NEVER time my block right, so now it's more about strategy, deciding when u should sub or not. Hell, in one of my last fights I saved my last sub instead of using it when in a combo, then my opponent used a team ultimate and I subbed out of the way and used obito's fireball jutsu to finish him off, it was beautiful.
