A.B.A. is also goinna be in this, which is really good because she was introduced in a somewhat bad game (Kinda like Ingrid in Evolution...). A.B.A. also has her own stage...

I hope that they tweaked her a little bit cause she is really hard to play after she runs out of Blood Packs (I know she has a command grab where she absorbs the enemy's life by impaling her key into them but its still pretty hard after she has no more blood packs).

That thread at SRK will probably be updated a billion times so I suggest checking in once in a while.

July 8:

This was posted by Kyosuke Kagami, over at Orochinagi Forums, showing off an art of Holy Order Sol/Holy Knight Sol.

http://www.romancancel.com/slash.jpg

Also, I myself came across a movelist for Holy Sol a while back. And it seems like he may be some sort of a hidden character, he looks cooler than regular sol, and plays similar to him-

July 10:
List Changed from the one found in Orochinagi forums (as this one is more accurate). And some other new info included

General Changes
"
- The title is now Guilty Gear XX Slash, with the #Reload being dropped completely.
- There is a new background, it appears to be Order Sol's stage. It appears to be the interior of a castle or cathedral, with statues on either side of the fighting area and a large window in the center background, where light shines in.
- There is now a version of the Japanese colony which appears to be during the morning with a generally green colorset.
- Zepp is now flying low through clouds.
- Dizzy's stage is now at fall time. (?)
- Various new alternate palletes. Robo-Ky now has the MKII pallete as an alternate.
- New win icons.
- FD knockback has increased.
- Burst apparantly looks a bit different now.
- Not just with FD, but knockback in general is greater.
- Something about the priority for FD and throw input being different.

Order-Sol New Character!
"

General
"
- Of course, this is Sol from back during the Crusades, when he was a Holy Knight. He wears his Sacred Order uniform, as seen in several artworks.
- He doesn't weild the Fuuenken (Fireseal Sword), but rather a different sword, most likely the one from the various artworks of him.
- His portrait is in the center ring, just below Sol and Ky's, where the "XX" placeholder portrait was in the previous loke test.
- He doesn't yet have his taunts or winposes, apparantly.
- His IK is apprantly all new, but I'm guessing it could also be his IK from the original GG, as he seems to be a throwback to the first game in a lot of ways.
- His stance and most of his normal moves are about the same as the standard Sol, but a few of them are different. His JD is a kick of some sort, and some other moves changed too...

Charge Guage
Order-Sol has a "Charge Guage" in addition to the Tension Guage, which is situated just above the standard Tension Guage. This works in a way similair to the the original GG's guage, allowing him to build the guage and, in turn, power his attacks up. The attacks can be powered up to at most three ranks higher. Using these higher-powered moves consumes the Charge Guage.

Special Moves

Block Head Buster :: 236+P
- Physical attack technique similair to the body blow in Tyrant Rave. It's like a short-range version of Fafnir, and causes the flame to leap a short distance from the blade's handle. At higher ranks, it can reach halfway across the screen.

Gun Blaze :: 214+S
- Like the sliding part of Grand Viper, with a fairly short distance. Sol slides forward and a column of fire erupts where he passed, damaging the enemy with his "trail". At higher ranks, it has additional hits, more like Grand Viper.

Rocket :: 236+S
- Technique like a low, long-distance, rushing Fafnir. It has additional hits at higher ranks.

Storm Viper :: 623+S (Air OK)
- Like Volcanic Viper, except it doesn't go as high, only as high as a S VV. As the ranks increase, it adds an additional attack and knockdown.

Bandit Revolver Prototype :: 236+K (Air OK)
- At rank 1, it only does one hit, but as it gets higher, it does more.

Charge :: 63214+D (Hold Down)
- Sol poses and yells, filling his Charge Guage. It's pretty slow though.

Action Charge :: 22+D (After special move) (Air OK)
- The main way for filling the charge guage, you use it after special moves, like a combo. It charges much quicker, and can even be done in midair. Depending on how the special move hit the enemy (guarded, missed, etc.), the amount gained may vary.
- Works with Blockhead Buster, Gun Blades, and Rocket.

Charge Burst :: HS (During Charge)
- Consumes Charge Guage to perform a move like the Psych-Burst.

Overdrives

Savage Fang :: 632146+P
- Can supposedly be canceled during the installation frame. The higher your rank, the more flames that are released.

Tyrant Rave ver Ù (Omega) :: 632146+HS
- Only a single hit at rank 1. It gains an additional hit for each additional rank; 2=2 hits, 3=3 hits.

A.B.A New Character!
"
General
- A.B.A is about the same as she was in Isuka.
- Her recovery time for transfusions needed for her to change modes has apparantly decreased.
- Because she hasn't really changed, I won't repost her entire movelist from Isuka.
- She has new win quotes against certain characters.

Instant Kill
Darkness of Ignorance :: 236236+HS
- No description, but it's supposed to be "shocking" and takes a long time.
- It can be done in any of her modes.

I played the last GG that came out on PS2. I think it was called GG XX. It was absolute dog****. I'm a fan of the Guilty Gear series, but they tried to make it Super Guilty Gear Smash Brothers Melee with the 4 player capabilities. To get a better picture of how bad I thought this game was, I rented it and I felt I should have gotten my money back.

I loved GG X, but if this new one is anything like the piece of crap I played, I'm not looking forward to it.

 

[-JLN-]

^I think that would be Guilty Gear Isuka you're talking about? Never played it myself. Played Guilty Gear X and Guilty Gear XX Reload though, and they owned. The speed of the games makes the fighting extremely intense; I generally don't like 2d fighters anymore, but I love GG games. Plus, the music rocks big time.

 

[Xenogias]

Guilty Gear Isuka was crap.

Guilty Gear XX#Reload (The Xbox version) is better (Sammy ****ed up the PS2 version of GGXX by leaving out many moves that were supposed to be there - Xbox version has more missions and features anyway).

Guilty Gear XX#Reload Slash is goinna seem like a rehash of GGXX#Reload but its got just enough new gameplay elements and features (and 2 new characters) to make it somewhat new.

Though if you ask me their doing the same thing Capcom did was SF2 Series.
