IC Card System:
Essentially the same thing as SF4 Arcade's card system.
- Battle Records
- Replays
- Ranking
You can also do the following with your card (along with a cellphone, seems like):
- Event battles
- Unlock Questionnaire
- Tags
- Selecting your operator
- Selecting BGM
- Changing your nickname
- Changing your Gauge Layout
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
System Changes:
- The Cost Gauge is once again 6000, similar to the GvG series. (Initially 1000, similar to SEED VS series)
- Currently there are 4 tiers of unit costs: 3000, 2500, 2000, 1000
- Cost Over returns from GvG despite its initial absence in the first few location tests.
- Awakening returns in the form of Extreme Burst, which will be covered in a bit.
- Assists have been removed. However, some units have an assist type attack, but not all units have this.
- NEXT Dash also returns from GvGN, it is now part of the Extreme Actions that you can perform.
- All units now can shield guard.
- Transforming is now a bit faster.
- Projectile speed had been increased.
- Overall boost durations have been decreased. (Or rather, you eat up boost much faster. Units can only perform up to 4 cancels now.)
- Landing works the same as GvGN.
- However, if you land without any boost left, the boost gauge will display overheat and you will be stuck on the ground for a longer duration of time. Currently, the delay is around 1.7x~.
Extreme Action:
- The new "system" in EXVS.
- You may cancel your actions with a BD input. (aka NEXT Dash)
- You can cancel out of melee attacks with a step, jump or even a shield guard.
- Step Cancel returns from the SEED VS series. For people who don't know what Step Cancel is, please visit the AvZ/AvZ2 FAQs.
- While Step Cancel returns, its functionality have been reduced.
- Essentially, Extreme Action is Nerfed ND + Nerfed Step Can + Parts of SPEED awaken. (From AvZ2)
Extreme Burst: (EX Burst)
- The new awaken, activated via abc when the gauge is over half full. The awakening process is similar to AvZ2.
- Different units have different effects while in EX Burst. For example: God and Dragon goes into Meikyo Shisui during EX Burst. Cherudim and 00 goes into TRANS-AM.
- When EX Burst is activated, the unit's boost and weapon ammo are all recovered. (Similar to how Awakening worked before)
- During EX Burst, the unit will receive roughly a 1.8x attack buff, a 0.5x defense buff.
- Some units have a special attack during EX Burst, which can be accessed if you press abc again during EX Burst.
