********************
So, how do you do the new stuff on the scaffold to create some sick new highspots, what are the known issues, and what are we planning on adding and improving already for the next update? Read on!
You can still win a Scaffold match the old fashioned way by performing a Special Grapple at the right time and location. It’s almost f’n impossible. So, are intrepid lead programmer, Burning Devil, spent a shit ton of time adding the ability to knock off the scaffold with a strike and win that way as well. Simple? Yes. Easy? Also yes! All you want to do is get your opponent into a standing stunned state near the edge of the scaffold platform and give him a solid strike to watch him fly off the scaffold in real time ragdoll physics reaction. You can even try to set it up juuuuuuuust right to see him smash through a table on the way down or (if you’re really talented) get him to bounce off the top rope New Jack style lol!
HOWEVER! We already see lots of cool areas that we can improve on. So, before you spend your sexy and valuable free time writing up a comment about something we’re already planning for check these notes of known issues for the next update:
-We plan to add the option for you to choose exactly with how much force and in what direction the opponent reacts when he ragdolls.
-For such a big epic moment the scaffold ragdoll could be more dramatic so we’re already planning on adding a dramatic camera option to Ragdoll KO’s similar to what you see when blood happens and the camera zooms in etc.
-We want Screenshot Mode to give you more control over capturing that moment so we intend to extend the screenshot camera options.
-We want to add this INSANELY AWESOME new ragdoll KO mechanic to to other match moments where it could be awesome such as the Cell match, fighting on the entrance stage platforms, and the upcoming ladder match.
Enjoy!
