User blog:Shadowslayer of the northern legion/Shadow fight arena (WIP)

(this blog is being constantly updated and has been passed from an old account of me)

Hello, i'm back again with another blog, this time all about SFA, i'm gonna try and explain everything as best as i can, from weapons to game mechanics, do read carefully though

What will we have in this game, and what's it on?

This game will be entirely PvP focused, unlike SF3 however, it will be on mobile and PC, with a chance it will appear on consoles like PS4 as well, there will also be a story mode, described later in this blog, a battle pass and offline mode will also be included featuring unique rewards, think of it like the event marathons in SF3, clan wars and clan battles will also be included, so it's safe to say plenty of clans will be seen, characters will without a doubt have shadow abilities, but will likely have special abilities as well, be prepared for intense combat

Graphical changes

SF3 already has impressive enough graphics, but SFA has by far the best graphics nekki has done, this is because nekki said they'd be trying to get it on as many platforms as possible and want it to look as good as possible, let's just hope it goes well on mobile as well

Controls

Because of the platforms and screenshots, SFA will likely have swipe to play controls on mobile, and use certain buttons on the keyboard for PC, there is a ranged weapon button on the bottom edges of the screen, likely for ranged weapons

Characters

From what's been said, it seems like every character for SF3 will be included in SFA, each with a unique ability most likely, defender from chapter 5 breathing fire for example, though i wonder how nekki will balance characters like shadow mind or chief, two bosses that were extremely overpowered

Weapons and how they work

Weapons will work fairly differently compared to the other shadow fight games, this is because as said earlier, it's swipe control mechanics, most likely anyways, the two attacks that are pretty much confirmed to be in game are light attacks and heavy/special attacks

Clan wars

It's not exactly confirmed how it would work, but somebody had a good theory on how it'd work, original person: shadow fight fanclub on youtube

"clan wars will last for 3 days, it's like 1vs7 clans so that its a fight available all the time, clan with the most points win, we can see our teammate fighting in the background, but it's a bot" this is a pretty good description, but there is one problem, clan wars likely won't be on all the time, perhaps there could be a 4 hour wait for it, that way each clan can prepare for it, longest wait i can think of is 12 hours

Story mode

The story will be completely focused on the history of characters and untold parts of their stories in the shadow fight universe, nekki calls these, "the adventures" and it makes sense considering we're exploring the character's backstory, though nekki has said how it will work is currently unknown, it's possible some SF2 characters will be included, so we might be able to explore may's backstory

Release date and misc info

An open beta for SFA has been announced by nekki, it will be near the end of the year, likely in December, the release date for the full game is currently unknown, but likely a little bit after the open beta in 2020
