GUILTY GEAR 2 -OVERTURE- news & patch notes

・Added Mouse & Keyboard control type http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/22556326/2bd259f52da95c36c5b2feaf7640cdf038acdd7c.jpg *The full size guide can be found in the store page, under "View the quick reference". Players can access this control type by Left-clicking at the title screen, with the "PUSH START" display. Do note that if you proceed via a controller button, the game will recognise it as a controller type input, and likewise a keyboard button will register as a pure Keyboard only (no mouse) control type. For Keyboard&Mouse control configuration type, depending on the different sequence of the game, the "Confirm" button may either be Left Click, the Enter key or the Space key. Also, the Enter key is used to mark yourself as Ready for online game modes. Press the Backspace key to exit the player room. ・Allow stages to be selectable in online mode Previously players can only choose the weather conditions, but now players can choose both the Stage and the Weather separately.

We would like to apologize for the lack of elaboration on certain elements newly introduced to the game yesterday. The details are as follows: ・Network Indicator (aka Antenna) will now be displayed in the search results. http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/22556326/94f4e843bb41f43a59017aab345b965b66b8ce5d.png With regards to the above new introduction, we have implemented 2 new displays for the search result. RTT: Stands for "Round Trip Time", where it measures the time taken for data to travel to and fro between 2 players. The number is represented in milliseconds. This term is also commonly known as the "ping". CQ: Stands for "Connection Quality", where it displays the stability of the connection between 2 players.
