so heat is pretty much a failure

[BeastKingSmash]

poorly received , almost everybody hates it, doesn't add any value to the game,

I wonder what Harada must be thinking right now, i wonder if he feels like a fool for adding this dumb mechanic in the game

[unclassified]

casuals who never played a tekken game seriously before like it.

no just casuals, Kazuya mains love heat because they love stealing rounds with demon paw heat engager into forced 50-50 hellsweep- ff4

this is why TMM loves heat , some people love stealing rounds with braindead garbage

but i'm not one of these people , i don't want to steal rounds, i want to earn my wins by outsmarting the opponent not by forcing him to guess for his life , only cowards enjoy winning by robberies

[BeastKingSmash]

some people love heat for the free wins, all they care about is the win , they don't care how as long as they win, this is a pathetic mentality to have if you ask me i call this the sweat mentality

The only reason why heat is not well-received (including my opinion) is because of its ungabunga properties. Heat smashes should be unsafe (launch punishable), they should be high risk high reward because it's crazy how safe they are on block while having hard wall/floor break properties. Some are suicide like Lars' if your opponent is on rage but if it works and if it breaks the floor, you can get ready to eat an EASY combo that will take 75/85% of your life (and I know this because I have done such thing). Good that they nerfed heat activation, now it doesn't steal your turn as much as before and it can't even k.o. anymore, good that heat dashes have been nerfed so that they are only +5 instead of +17, but not good that heat smashes are still soooooo safe...

And imo players should be able to do EITHER heat smash or rage art, just as in TK7 when players could choose between rage drive and rage art, and doing either of them would drain rage. The only thing that TK8 needs for now is to make it more tactical and less ungabunga

[BeastKingSmash]

all i know is heat engagers should NOT combo, how many rounds i lost just because the guy mashed his heat button while i was doing something and caught me in mid air and he juggled me to the wall....such a stupid panic button should NEVER combo, EVER EVER EVER.

[Skaluk]

i'm just deleted tekken 8 because it's just so bad to play against characters with good heat smashes and even after that they have 50/50 game wtf?
i just don't want to play in this game while it's here.
At least they need to make heat smash unsafe

[Spirit]

yes i hate the heat system too. game would be better without it or at least remove the 1 second cutscene when press activate

[Wipkonijntje]

also don't let heat engager enable another string.

[Backburner]

I have more issues with Rage Art. I just hate it when someone uses it combined with a combo. First they destroy your HP with a strong combo, then they use rage art, and when they do that, 80% of your full HP is gone.

[Wipkonijntje]

doesn't RA in a combo lower the damage by like 75%?

[Jellybrah]

Theres worse things than heat > the unending combo's into wall combos into guaranteed hits before wakeup. When combo others i just know they are thinking the same "why am i watching a videogame and not playing?"

it's the guranteed hits before wakeup that annoy me, they should either scale with combo or whiff if executed within a certain timeframe - free extra unscaled damage on an already 50-60% combo is stupid

^this 100%

also lows in heat Including smash should be able to be parried for the people who can react to it & or read it.

its so bs you can't wake up press u to cancel ws then df parry all cause of some sudden magical properties on Kazuyas foot.
