The Tekken 7 petition for a better game.

This petition is for those players out there in the world who are outside the Tekken hardcore fan base. This petition is for those who thought that Tekken 6 was a crushing disappointment and wants a better Tekken experience for Tekken 7.

Reasons for this Petition

In the last game Tekken 6, for a die-hard Tekken fan, this might have been a great game. However, not everyone is a die-hard Tekken fan. There are many other gamers besides the hardcore Tekken fan base who enjoys the game play of the Tekken franchise. Those people outside the Tekken fan base have played Tekken 6 and find the game to be very disappointing. These people are known as causal gamers. Any causal gamer that is not a die-hard Tekken fan finds Tekken 6 to be one of the most disappointing games in the new generation era. The game was nightmare and the upcoming paragraphs explain why the game was nightmare. However Namco, gamers outside of the Tekken fan base will give you another chance to satisfy their gaming experience in Tekken 7.

Scenario Campaign mode

First of all, Scenario Campaign mode was the worst thing that could ever happen in Tekken 6. Forcing this mode into the main game of Tekken 6 was dreadful. Scenario Campaign mode should not been the main mode to unlock everything in the game. It felt like a bad 3d imitation of Fighting Force or Streets of Rage. The player was forced to endure this mode to unlock everything in the game. That was horrible Namco. You, Namco are chasing away gamers outside the Tekken fan base and some of the Tekken fans. The player loses interest after losing a stage in Scenario Campaign mode a ton of times. Was Scenario Campaign mode the only thing that Tekken 6 has to offer to make serious money? That should not be the case in Tekken 7.

Other ways to earn gold.

There should be other ways to make serious gold. In Tekken 5 DR for the Play station Portable system, Dojo mode was a great way to make money. Another mode that should allow players to make serious gold in Tekken 7 should be Tekken ball from Tekken 3. Allow the player to have Tekken ball back in Tekken 7 as a bonus feature. Gamers whether causal or part of the Tekken fan base will not tolerate Scenario Campaign mode. Especially, if it has little or no target system or part of the main game to unlock everything. This is not trilling to have little or no target system to hit the enemies that come out of nowhere. In addition, this should not become the only way to unlock the story for characters. Namco, bring back the Tekken 5 way of unlocking the story mode. Namco you need to take Tekken 6's Scenario Campaign (without the behind-the-back camera) and do not incorporate it into the main game in Tekken 7. This mode should only be optional to the player.

Ranking system and online play

In addition, the ranking system in Tekken 6 was downright intolerable. Players whom played Tekken 5 DR online for PS3 had a better experience because of the ranking system. Players in Tekken 5 DR online had the freedom to rank up in that game online and offline. In Tekken 6 once a player reaches First Dan, the player is forced to play online to continue to rank up. That is unfair to anyone who doesn't wish to participate on online activates in Tekken 6. Furthermore, the players experience online can become unplayable and, it can lag even after numerous of patches were uploaded. Players whether casual or part of the Tekken fan base will not tolerate playing a lagging online all day just to rank up in Tekken 7. Namco please return the ranking system like it was in Tekken 5 DR online in the new game Tekken 7. Online should be treated like a bonus feature in Tekken 7. Do not force player to only play online to rank up. That is a major turn off and will drive away sales to Tekken 7.

Game play

Moreover, the player should not be trapped in the corner in endless juggles in Tekken 7. Namco if you wish to keep the bounce system and the rage mode please allow a juggle escape move. This is only fair to have a juggle escape move for Tekken 7. This will balance things out in Tekken 7. The juggle escape should only be used once per round in Tekken 7. The player should also have a guard breaker attack to stop coward players from blocking attacks all day. Players should go all out and not stand around blocking attacks in a match. If these two features juggle escape and guard breaker was incorporate, Tekken 7 will be more enjoyable to all gamers who play with honor.

Tag Team and other modes that should be in Tekken 7

The fact that Tekken 6 still doesn't have a tag battle system is inexcusable. Since Tekken 5 and 6 already feature most of the characters from the entire series, Tag battle mode should also be incorporated in Tekken 7. If Dead or Alive can do it, Tekken can do it as well. To continue, the tag team mode should be like it was in Soul Calibur 4.Players should been able to switch out characters as much as see fit. Whoever team is eliminated loses. Like before, Dojo mode needs to return because that allows the player to practice more. Create Dojo mode similar to Virtual fighter 5's quest mode. Allow the player to fight in different Dojos and conquer Dojos in Tekken 7. It is a more enjoyable experience to make the gold in Dojo mode than in Scenario Campaign mode. Practice mode also needs some new features. First, place command attack back in Tekken 7. With command attack, the player can see if the moves or combs that they are doing are correct. Demo mode allows a player to see the attack or combinations in action. This feature was a good point in Tekken 6. This needs to be kept in the game for Tekken 7. Another feature that needs to come is Ghost simulation. Downloading a Ghost in Tekken 6 was a good feature however; players would have to wait in Ghost battle to play against the downloaded ghost. What if the ghost that was downloaded was available in practice mode? That is basically Ghost simulation. If this happened than players will know what to expect in an online battle with the ghost of the tough rivals that they encounter.

Both Character Customization and Character Creation

Finally the main reason why this petition was made, Character creation needs to be incorporated in Tekken 7despite what die-hard Tekken fans say. For die-hard Tekken fans character customization might have been okay. However, for other players who have played other games such as Soul Calibur 4, the character customization in Tekken 6 was too limited. Players that are not a part of the hardcore fan base are sick and tired of not being about to create a character in the Tekken franchise. Tekken 6 only having character customization is no fun and very unappealing to other players that are not a die-hard Tekken fan. The players can only customize in game characters and the items in the game are way too expensive and limited. In Tekken 6 the player was unable to change the color skin of the character and was stuck with whoever was in the game. Players have experienced Soul Calibur 4. The items where cheaper and the player was allow to change the color of the items that were purchase as much as they see fit. Namco you try to fool the player with tricks like selling the same item with different colors in Tekken 6. That is unacceptable. Tekken 7 needs both character customization and character creation. If hardcore Tekken fans do not like the idea to create their own characters they do not have to. This mode is also another bonus feature for the game. This is for players that are not die-hard Tekken fans. Namco you did this perfectly in Soul Calibur 4 why can't Tekken 7 have the same or better features than Soul Calibur? If Tekken 7 had both features, players can finally put to rest Soul Calibur 4. The players outside the die-hard fan base want to make a representation of themselves and their made up characters that they imagined. Character Creation brings massive replay value to any game regardless how good or bad a game is. Character Creation will not break the game play experience of Tekken 7. Players will still be able to play the old traditional Tekken. Character Creation in Tekken 7 will not affect the sales of Tekken 7. The sales can only go up and possibly allow Tekken 7 to become the best fighting game for whatever year this game comes out. Gamers outside the Tekken fan base just want to create characters that have unique features but have the fighting of a pre-existing character. In Tekken 7 the player should have the right to create his or her own unique character. The character creation mode should be like Soul Calibur 4 but with more features.

Character Creation description

The player should have the right to create a character and customize the custom characters face similar to White Knight Chronicles or Saints row 2. In both games players can create who or whatever they wish. If this was incorporated in Tekken 7 this will allow players to be original and different from other competitors. Second please allow the player to change the facial hair, skin color, size, age, gender, clothing, jewelry, hair personally and voice for the created character. A story mode for the created character is not required for full enjoyment. Tekken 7 should not only appeal to Tekken fans. That is what happened in Tekken 6 and that was disappointing for anyone outside the Tekken fan base. Players paid full price for a game and it turned out to be a major letdown. Tekken 7 needs to appeal to everyone who is going to purchase it not just the hardcore Tekken fan. If Tekken 7 does not appeal to everyone outside the fan base it will result to another major disappointment and will be an act of closing the Tekken franchise to only the Tekken hardcore fan base. Namco by allowing character creation in Tekken 7 will appeal to other players who do not play Tekken on a daily bases. In addition, character creation will motivate newcomers to practice more with their custom characters. Please, do not just put character customization Namco or Tekken 7 will be ignored by other players that are not a part of the hardcore fan base. Players that are not a part of the Tekken fan base wish to see character creation in Tekken 7. Namco, if you wish to see high profits in Tekken 7 please incorporated character creation.

Petition closing statement

In summary of this petition Tekken 6 made many players outside the hardcore Tekken fan base not play it because of the following reasons. First reason, Tekken 6 was disappointing because it made the player play Scenario Campaign mode to unlock everything in Tekken 6. The mode lacked a strong target system for players to attack the enemies in the game. This should only be a bonus feature in Tekken 7. In addition to the Scenario Campaign mode disappointment, the player was not allowed to rank up offline. Without the offline ranking system the player will never receive the extra practice needed to fight players online. This was dreadful for the Tekken fans who loved Tekken 5 DR online. Also not having Dojo mode in Tekken 6 was another crushing disappointment for the Tekken fan. Dojo mode will be a more enjoyable way to make money in Tekken 7. Furthermore, Tekken 6 was disappointing because it do not allow players outside the Tekken fan base to create their own characters. Remember, Namco character creation can only help out your sales and profits for Tekken 7 not harm them. Now with all of the features that were mentioned , this petition is set for Tekken 7 to be the best fighting game of the new generation. Tekken 7 needs to appeal to everyone not just the diehard Tekken fans. Namco, if you fail to satisfy the demands of this petition in Tekken 7, this will result in another defeat for the Tekken franchise and lost in profits and sales. All who support this petition are waiting for a better game in Tekken 7. If Tekken 7 is the last game for the Tekken franchise, let it become the best game and not the worst like Tekken 6 was.
