What are all the options on the main menu?

The main menu has had an upgrade since CGoH. This is the new main menu in UAS:

  • Arcade Mode
  • Versus Mode
  • Survival Mode
  • Time Attack Mode
  • Training Mode
  • Play Data Mode
  • Options Mode
  • Shop Mode
  • Gallery Mode
  • Extra Game-(This is unlocked when you beat Arcade mode and collect the yellow letters to make out the message: "Thank You For Playing" during the credits. You can collect these yellow with either Doronjo and her crew (on a bike-they jump), or with Roll (she flies on the screen with her broom. In order to use Roll in the credits, beat Arcade Mode with Roll).
  • Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection Mode-You MUST be connected to the internet in order to play people online. You can either with a router (you can find that online; this is the recommended option) or with Wi-Fi wireless (not recommended).

This is in order. When you hit the start button at the title screen, you are highlighting Arcade Mode.

What is the in-game shop for?

Similar to Marvel V.S. Capcom 2, the more times you play Arcade Mode, Extra Game Mode, Survival Mode, or Time Attack Mode, the more points you earn. In Shop Mode, you can buy artwork, colors three and four for all the characters (note: you must beat Arcade Mode in order to get the additional colors--example: if you want Ryu's 3rd and 4th colors, beat Arcade Mode with Ryu; a message should appear after you beat Arcade Mode with Ryu. Once you get the message, the colors for Ryu should be available for purchase), movies, and information about the roster and the stages.

Are Giants Banned?

  • In the early 2010s, the giants were softbanned, which was a case by case basis, but as of right now giants have no bans against them.
  • This has lead to the "Phampy Clause", which allows a character change under these two specific scenarios
  1. If Player A has already chosen their characters before Player B and Player B choses a giant, then player A gets the opportunity to reselect their characters.
  2. As well, if player A and B play a match using non-giants and player A loses their match and goes to character select and choses a giant, then player B is allowed to change their team.

Are any stages banned?

  • If playing on original Wii Hardware it's highly recommended to stay on Training stage and at the very least avoid Burning Wasteland/Orbital Cargo Bay
  • On Dolphin all stages are acceptable, but Burning Wasteland is soft banned as it causes issues with players who suffer from color blindness as some characters and effects blend into the background. There is also some discrepancy depending on the user's own CPU hardware that may cause players to request to stay on Training Stage to maintain 60FPS but this is a case by case basis.

What are the changes in UAS coming from the previous version of CGOH?

[[[[[This section needs some editing, or a new page, this is purely for archiving at the moment]]]]]]
-------------------------------------------------------------

KEY: [+] = positive change (buff) [-] = negative change (nerf)[*] = unimportant change (no effect on gameplay) [?] = unknown change (unsure if this is a positive or a negative change)


UNIVERSAL/SYSTEM CHANGES-------------------------

+ Throws are more useful (tick throws exist. You can throw someone while they are attacking, can throw after blockstun etc.) - Characters fall faster now. - Megacrash pushes up and away. Can still combo after a megacrash. - Baroque is not as potent + Giant characters cannot be so easily comboed/infinited + characters gain a bit more meter while being hit - cannot force the opponent into a corner after a juggle via the air combo trick

  • Stage-specific music
  • New character select screen (with gear-like selection reels that leave the number of new characters to be included ambiguous)

- Damage scaling on DHCs is more severe, devaluing hyper combinations somewhat + characters now have more proration as their health bars get lower (guts)

KARAS - 236A sword spin special is slightly slower. The difference is barely noticable but it's there. + [4]6B > 236A > 6B is now a 3 hit combo on an airborn opponent. The 6B comes out with no delay. This means he can now wallslam at will without needing to use the chain. + Can combo from 63214A/B/C > 236A wall slam attack. He can pick the opponent up off the ground when they bounce after the hit. - Slide infinite is removed - 5C has more lag - 2C has more lag - 5B may have less range

TEKKAMAN + Charge 46+A moves across the screen VERY quickly now. As fast, as, if not faster than, Ryu’s 236+C. - Due to the change in the pursuit speed, 3C /\ J.B - 28+C - 28+C no longer works.

It is also more powerful than before. + Riot tackles can combo from 6B4B + 5C can be comboed into via 5B + [2]8B and C chainsaw special knocks down on hit. A version does not. + 623AB chainsaw super is much stronger, though still unsafe on hit or block + 3C launches the opponent at a less vertical height and is faster + many more options to combo into level 3 + many more combo options in general + can combo AFTER level 3 super while the opponent is on the ground using 2C, since the launch time is now greater. May even be able to combo the opponent on the way down. + j.5C will combo all 5 hits if done on an airborn opponent

  • Fire effect added to all thruster attacks (visual)

- No more mega crash grabs + jumps with the opponent on a break out, making grabs safe to attempt. - Rocket has been slightly nerfed. It takes longer for them to home in. + Attacks that use the shield (such as riot tackle or 2A) have auto-guard properties. If he is hit during these states he doesn't take damage

GOLD LIGHTAN + 22+Attack covers the whole floor and is slightly stronger + 41236 + B&C knockdown + 5C can combo into 3C - Jabs push opponent away more + golden pimp slap causes knockdown on hit + golden drop kick sends him very far across the screen, making it useful for punishing keep away! + gan combo j.5C into gold crash any time + gold crash hits OTG ? gold crash may possibly hit low

SAKI + Level 3 super is more powerful as is the beam super. + 5C is now cancellable. + J.C is also cancellable allowing her to control space very well with J.C xx 421+A/B/C. + The unblockable version of 5C can be cancelled into 3C for some very damaging aerial raves - The unblockable bullet chain (Unblockable 5C - 5C - 2C) now does around 15,000B damage as opposed to 18,000B damage. + 6C causes the opponent to stagger step and combos into her 214+A/B/C grab. Her assist has not been changed to follow this pattern. - Her lingering sphere shot no longer stays out for as long as before, meaning no infinite. + Her assist know knocks the opponent all the way back across the stage, allowing some characters like Ken to make good use of it.

  • grenades have a fire effect added

IPPATSUMAN + Ippatsuman’s 623+Attack has same properties as Ken’s 623+B/C. + Ippatsuman’s dash~623+attack has same properties as Ken’s 623+B/C. - Several resets actually combo now (examples: charge back, forward+C, 623 super; air combo, j.A, j.A, j.B, j.B, 7, j.A, j.B, j.C, 623 super) which means his damage scales more and he won't be doing as much damage. + He still has a useful reset combo: launch, j.A, j.A, j.B, j.B, 7, j.A, jA, j.C, 623 Super. - his level 3 now eats up meter a lot faster.

DORONJO + 214+Attack seems a lot faster. The rock comes out very quickly. + 623+Attack is faster as well. - 2B has less hit stun, making her attack strings less safe - J.B got nerfed. Has lesser range and the mid-screen re-jump (B) combo no longer works. - Its harder to land 423+B when the opponent is jumping in now.

Probably to accommodate her combo nerfs. - her tree takes longer to explode + jumping rock summon starts lower and therefore hits faster

YATTERMAN-1 + Yatterpellican has been replaced with Yatterwan for 2P colour - 2C has a smaller hitbox - 623+A/B/C all have more recovery + Combos 2C to 6C with ease. - harder to combo into OTG Yatterwan fire breath super

POLIMAR (yes, another spelling change) + On airborne opponents, 236+Attack hits much like the assist version of the attack, thus allowing for easier comboing into charge 46+A and 623+attack, attack, attack. Has no knock away on airborne enemies. + 6C has less knock away and allows easier comboing of 623+attack, attack, attack. + Can combo into all charge 46 A/B/C specials and can dash after + Can combo into his level 3 super off 5C. Either 5C has more stun time or his level 3 super comes out faster.
