Drop

[NotaHero21]

I have been wondering for sometime now. There has been little discussion as to what exactly the drop gauge will mean for dream drop distance as far as game-play goes. Now I for one have a feeling that it may have something to do with Sora and Riku's jumping around like ninjas. I don't much have a basis for this claim and don't support it to much but it kinda seems fees able. I say that because If they do implement the deck command again then it will be unlikely that the drop gauge will effect combat. What do you guys think? What is the drop?

i think its like the drive gauge

and those fast paced moving attacks are the new drive forms/command styles

I'm thinking maybe the drop gauge could be a stamina bar, like when it runs out, your character dies(drops) and maybe you switch to the other one for a while.
Meh, maybe that's a retarded idea.
I think I like yours better.
EDIT: ^ I think Silver Soul may be right. I wonder what command styles they could come up with, though.

thats actually an awesome idea

as you progress, your gauge get bigger
and you get more time with each char.

Or, the gauge gets smaller as the story progresses. Now THAT would be a challenge.

I think the term 'drop' means another character drops in and takes the other's place. The drop gauge might mean there's a limit to how many times you can change characters. Of course, it can probably be refilled like most gauges.

It's been confirmed that you can't manually switch.

I'm taking drop in the most literal sense of the word: falling.

Dont be so fast to call it a retarded idea, in fact this is along the line of what I think they are using it for. And personally it seems like a great one.

how wil riku and sora move about the world were not in the castle
no gummiship or corridor of darkness
mabey drop is there means of getting where

I like the idea that when the drop gauge fills up, you can do all that crazy acrobatic stuff we saw in the trailer...Like Dlinks and MP and stuff.

 

[Oracle Spockanort]

Well, I think it will be something like the Focus bar, but it will be more integrated with the system. It will act as something like the Drives or Command Styles. Definitely has something to do with the cool jumping and spinning they do.

 

[NotaHero21]

If it is indeed a part of the combat system I will be a bit worried. I like the idea of the crazy bar being for something other then over powering the player. It cool and all but the focus bar and drive gauge have served to make the latest KH titles to easy. With the exception I suppose being BBS as I still enjoyed the boss fights in that game. But I chalk that up to the deck command system.

Agreed, and Nomura's already mentioned "a Sora that falls" so...

It would be most pleasing to hear if it was actually confirmed, I haven't read anything about it as of yet but i'm entitled to be wrong. A tag system has me happier then before, as I said before as long as they aren't providing retardedly strong power ups.

I have two guesses.

1. Another version of overclock from Re:coded which is way more insanely powerful. Everytime you get a higher number (1.5 - 2.0) you get powerful new commands that have to do with Dream, Drop, and Distance. (or at least Drop)

2. You drop with power.
