Bug Fixes

Input

[p]- Resolved issues with multiple controllers and controller rebindings that would lead to the game being softlocked.[/p][p]- Fixed issue where a single input would process as a double input on some menus.[/p]

Training Mode

[p]Fixed issue where setting the bar value for STAR meter would lock you at that number of bars (thus providing functionally infinite meter). The meter will now reset to the specified bar amount after a short period of time.[/p]

Virtual Frontier

[p]- Resolved multiple softlocks and unintended gameplay behaviors related to final bosses.[/p][p]- Removed or reworked several fights that could result in the game softlocking.[/p][p]- Fixed issue where the rewards menu would not show up after the first fight.[/p][p]- Resolved bug that would cause you to lose fights if you won while at 1 HP.[/p][p]- Fixed issue where Shion’s shop would sometimes display text in Japanese even when the game language is set to English.[/p]

Visuals

[p]- Fixed visual bugs related to several character cosplays.[/p][p]- Minor adjustments made to various animations.[/p]

Online

[p]- Reworked the demo system. This should allow for easier resolution of desyncs in the future.[/p]

Battle

[p]- Added the round start input buffer to offline matches to match online behavior.[/p][p]- Adjusted corner physics to prevent multiple corner steal setups.[/p][p]- Fixed bug where buffered jumps would sometimes come out 1 frame late. This would previously result in some characters being grabbed out of their first frame of jump startup.[/p][p]- Fixed bug where all armored moves had infinite armor. The moves will now have the intended number of armored hits. New armor values for moves are marked under their respective characters in the “Battle Updates” section.[/p][p]- Fixed bug where losses were not properly recorded. Win/loss information has been reset.[/p]
