Did I mention there's hardly any freedom in the way you can combo in this game? the worst offender by far is the 5F autofire that makes dropping your combos flat out impossible. Where's the fun in playing competitively when the game doesn't allow any mistakes from either end? oh yeah, and negative penalty is retarded. Backdash once too many times and now you take 2x damage. THIS IS A PERFECT WAY TO REWARD SOMEONE FOR PLAYING SMART.

I don't remember much about the changes made from CT to CS so excuse me if I'm a little off, but above all this game is just boring as shit.
I'm not going to argue about what you know about the game, but everything is situational in most cases, what you consider "easy" might not be so easy for other players, so please keep that in mind. As for Negative Penalty, even players who get hit with it aren't really suffering until they actually DO get hit...Jin is a primary offender of Negative Penalty, yet he still manages to get 3k on average, at least in CS2...

If it's food for thought, the recent location tests for BBCS2+ are saying that there's greater pushback on Barrier blocking both on the ground and in the air, so that sounds like good news for people who hate dealing with constant combo pressure. Lots of buffs for characters recently too. Not sure if they'll stay though.
The world would be a better place if there were less shooters and more dot-eaters.

By the way, is there another BB/fighting games thread on those forums to discuss the actual games, strategy and such, or should I go ahead and invade here? I've been playing for about two weeks with Jin and my PSR is around 70 or so (I wonder how bad that is) but I still can't figure out special move combo timing in this game :|

Better Barrier blocking sounds very, very good to my ears! When would you expect the console ports to get patched after the arcade update?

Yeah I would suggest either BlazBlue.com or Dustloop.com for advice on fighting games. Or SRK forums possibly.
