Apart from having cool guest characters like Darth Vader and Yoda, Soul Calibur IV will also be introducing a very cool system of battle damage, whereby character’s will lose part of their clothing/armor as they take on damage.
Here’s a trailer of the game showing snippets of the battle damage system in action:
Does that mean if I hit Darth Vader really really hard, his helmet will drop off? =P
OH YEAH MORE NAKO – May 22, 10:00 AM Love the martial arts demo part! – May 22, 9:59 AM Too bad I don't have money. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF – May 22, 9:59 AM
Interesting, Triumphant Excalibur is probably one of those that I regretted I passed on, good thing they are re-releasing it! – May 22, 9:37 AM I missed the eclipse because it was cloudy outside TT__TT – May 22, 9:58 AM
Did they ever show Darth Vaders face in Star Wars?
Destructible clothes, huh? So, basically Ivy will look the same after receiving attacks?
Vader’s face was shown at the end of the last movie.
@Hei: Yea he was old lol
Loving the battle damage, very Ikki Tousen lol. This is totally unfair i might add how the hell are you supposed to win when the game has Darth Vader in it, his lightsabre is just gonna cleave through swords, not to mention faces. I reckon he is just in it to take off peoples clothes off for the enjoyment of it. Who needs a sword with an eyeball when you have a Lightsabre?
darth was humpty dumpty under that helmet (O.O) << charlie brown ROFL!
i do like soul calibur, i wanna knocked girls clothes off!
…I am expecting some Siegfried manservice. >.>
Clarification is needed.
Destructible clothes is a very wrong term. The actual subsystem is known as armor break. You are supposed to be able to break through opponents’ armor when a certain gauge fills up. Certainly, for the females, this means clothes since they were originally looking to do it for fanservice. But yeah, against any decent player, it is going to be difficult to be doing this on a regular basis. You also have three “layers” of armor to break before the opponent cannot block (or something, unclear details right now).
This is not a common phenomenon you are going to see in-game all the time unless you play against someone who blocks all the time and has no idea how to play.
Such a fanservice haha Well at least the for the girls. Its an interesting twist to the game….I guess I cant play with my friends little brother anymore hahaha
LOL. I’d play this game just to get hit!
