26 Upvotes

Will be updated as time goes on.

First, here's a link to the Storm 4 FAQ if you're actually looking for that or got redirected here from modmail or something.

Q: Is there a Discord Server?

A: Yes! https://discord.com/invite/ultimateninja

Q: Does Connections have online Crossplay?

A: Only cross-gen within the same platform. eg: PS4 can play with PS5, but not with Xbox or PC players.

Q: Do we know the DLC characters?

A: They were datamined and currently believed to be Hagoromo, Isshiki, Kurenai, Boruto (Momoshiki), Kawaki (Full karma)

Q: What are all the trophies?

A: https://www.exophase.com/game/naruto-x-boruto-ultimate-ninja-storm-connections-psn/trophies/

Q: What all has changed combat wise?

A: https://www.reddit.com/r/NarutoNinjaStorm/comments/18klsd5/list_of_connections_combat_changes_from_storm_4/?

Q: Why can't I invite friends/make a lobby online?

A:~~ In CC2 fashion, one step forward and 5 steps back. Quick match in both ranked and player/casual match is the only available feature for online play right now.~~ Edit: The Hagoromo patch added custom lobbies on Jan 24, 2024.

Q: Any good content creators for guides or tips?

Q: Can I use the alternate jutsu on supports?

A: Yes, hold/flick the movement stick while calling out your support for them to use their other jutsu.

Q: Why don't my tilt attacks work? Chakra shuriken?

A: Tilts and chakra shuriken were removed.

Q: Does this game have voice chat?

A: Not currently

Q: What's this about defense modifiers?

A: Many characters in Connections have an innate modifier to their defense. The higher the modifier, the less dmg they take.

Q: What are some good characters for online?

A:~~Here's a tier list, but it's made by top level players to reflect the meta at top level play. Just because something is good at top levels of play, doesn't mean it'll be good at beginner level of play, and vice versa. Ultimately, you need to know fundamentals to succeed.

Q: Why won't my characters' customizations show up when I play them?

A: During character select, hit the Square/X button for your saved customization loadouts to pop up.

Q: My game is super laggy/has low fps

A: Disable MSAA completely in the options.

Q: How much damage does X character's jutsu/combo do?

A: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vSeOBqrUJayhzEdgzTRZZl7I0DYkHHDkc9KboJuQ0zcbeGnuTlq3JrqyayNZzbWnaeeb01cJsGHQc11/pubhtml?gid=0&single=true

Q: Why do my controls keep changing?

A: Bug as of the Kawashiki patch. No fix currently; you just have to go back into settings and redo them.

Q: What items does X character have?

A: https://narutostormtools.com/

Question Does Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 Road to Boruto give you the pre-order characters as well?

0 Upvotes

I still can't figure out which characters were actually part of the pre-order bonus (some say Boruto and Sarada, others mention specific versions of Naruto and Sasuke), and whether you can actually get these versions with the Road to Boruto edition or not. Could someone shed some light on this?

Humor My Ninja Storm Connections DLC Picks

Thumbnail
gallery
0 Upvotes

My first pick would be Adam Warlock who i think is an excellent pick. Amado could build him as the perfect cyborg and give him Shibai cells allowing him to use energy manipulation simaler to his origin. He would also be able to fly and heal himself using his cyborb cells. Adams first jutsu could be a burst of energy that drains chakra and his second could use his flight to make you faster. Adams ult would be a storm of energy blast turned into different elements that drown the opponent followed by a high speed flight shotgun burst of energy that damages the soul. Adams ultimate would be auto flight making you faster while healing you slightly of your wounds. Adams jutsu would change to a giant burst of yellow energy simaler to Jubbito with his second being a wave of water around him that freezes on impact. Adam would have 4 abilites on the d-pad allowing him to use all elements by either Firing a ball of fire,Causing a storm of water that slows,Creating a ThunderStorm or making spikes appear out the ground.

Daredevil is a big stretch but he could be a child of the Hyuga and another clan but due to the other clans kekkei genkai it forced the byakugan to be active all the time. He could have trained with might guy which would give him his acrobatic fighting skills and his martial arts. Using the byakugan he can perform the same accuracy that he has in the comics while also sensing anyone near him. Daredevil first justu would be tossing his billy clubs at the ground bouncing them into the enemy causing gaurd break and allowing him to dash at them. Daredevils second ability would allow him to sense any attack and counter it sllowing him to dodge the attack and hit the opponent. Daredevils ult would sink the target into darknes as he hits the target with a flurry of billy club blows before kncoking them back with a kick. Daredevils awakening would give him auto dodge as long as he stands still allowing to to predict and avoid all attacks. Daredevils first ability would be a grapple that attaches onto the target pullin himself to them and unleashing a flurry of billy club blows. Daredevils second ability would allow him to do the same counter but this time he would go into grab the opponent after the inital counter.

Freiza is the easiest to implement into the game. Freiza would be the first evolved 10 tails used in another universe millions of years before naruto. When he evolved he would have killed millions of Ōtsutsuki before being sealed in another dimension by Shibai which is why their are so little of them left. When the shinju evolved thabks to codes calw marks a black box appeared connecting to any claw marks that exist. Thanks to that freiza was able to return through the claw marks left on the dimension by Shibai. He would have all his normal powers euch as energy projection,Telekinesis,Lasers,Deathballs !and flying. His jutsu could be the DeathBeam and his 2nd could be death saucers that track. His ult would be a combo of attacks ending with a death crasher that destroys the world. Freizas awakening would be him increasing his body's mass becoming faster and stronger keeping the same hutsus but gaining a death ball and a Full power blast. He could maybe have skins that show his older forms.

My Second pick who i think is also a perfect pick is Kiyomasa Senji (Crow). He can be a child of The Chinoike Clan which would allow him to make his blood scythes on his arms using Ketsuryūgan. They could explain his looks by saying his mother was from another clan. Crows jutsu would be a running slash with his blood scythes causing the enemy to be knocked back while inflicted minor bleed. Crows second jutsu would have him leap into the air creating a giant ball of slashes causing knockdown and High bleed. Crows ult would be a burst of slashes that dice up the opponent before he creates a giant scythe and uses Void Flash cutting them at high speeds causing high bleed. Crows awakening would be Crow Claw Netting Patter making hexagons form in his scythes making them lighter and more deadlier. Crows just would be a dashing slice that send out a wave of sharp blood and his second would be aoe slashes that leave a sharp net of cuts into the ground that cause bleed. In his awakening he have 2 d-pad attacks one he will be able to use is a giant scythe strike that require a second to use due to the strain. Crows second D-Pad attack would be Invisible Black which is a quick draw of his scythes that travels extremely fast kncoking down the enemy. They bith can be used once per awakening as they do high damage and Invisible Black will be fast. His powers and personality would mesh well with Hidan.

Let me know what you guys thing about these picks.

Question naruto shippuden ninja storm 2 online still active?

Thinking on what game I want to hundred percent next but for this one I would need the online active so asking. Or is it a way I can connect to Xbox/PC servers from PlayStation 3


r/NarutoNinjaStorm 2d ago

Question Is there a way to play VS absolute beginners like me ?

0 Upvotes

I'm playing Connections on PS5, never took the franchise that seriously, always played story modes for the cool battles

Lately tho I wanted to give PVP a try, so I decided which character I wanted to learn (Naruto KCM2) and what the important mechanics were. So far I know what my options with this Naruto are and to use them consistently against bots like his infinite combo, how to hollow step and the hidden techs he has, but I run into the same problem every time I go online

I'm legit ass, with a reaction time of a grandpa and I feel overwhelmed when I'm getting destroyed. I have 0 experience and I know someone who has played seriously for like a week will curbstomp me, and it seems the matchmaking constantly puts me VS players well beyond my nonexistent skill.

Now I know, getting shit on over and over is the best way to learn and notice the mistakes you make, I'm not complaining about that at all, but damn does it feels demoralizing to always queue for a match and lose in less than a minute with the feeling of being completely powerless again and again lmao

So I'm asking... Can I play against complete newbies like me, or do I have to keep things that way until I improve enough to win ?


r/NarutoNinjaStorm 2d ago

Request For the fall update, I really hope they'll bring back some of the stuff that got removed from previous games, such as selectable jutsu, tilts and awakenings

31 Upvotes

Bringing back selectable jutsu and maybe even awakenings would allow us to use tons of cool and unique abilities from the previous games.

Some examples include:

Itachi's and Shisui's canon Susano'o

EMS Sasuke's complete Susano'o

Obito's Juubi awakening

Sage Hashirama's Shin Susenju

Kankuro's salamander awakening

Madara's Uchiha Reflection

Tenten's wind and earth elements (currently she can only use 3 of the 5 elements in her awakening, which is really odd)

Itachi's crow dash

Sage Hashirama's heavenly gates

Edo Minato's Raijin tag

SoSP Naruto's truth seeking orb kick

Rinnegan Tobi's Kamui tilt

Pain's crab summon

All of these are still included in the game files for Connections, so bringing them back should be a really easy thing to do that would add so much more longevity and customizability to the game.

How do you replay the special mission "The White Zetsu Subjugation" in Storm 3

0 Upvotes

Especially the mob battle Naruto vs. White Zetsu?

I have checked the Ninja Timeline, and that mission is not there.

Or maybe does anyone have a save file, PC version, right before that mission starts? Thanks.

Ninja Connection, latest character

0 Upvotes

I have a question, does anyone know how I can download or update Ninja Connection to get the latest character they added? I downloaded the game from a YouTube channel, but I see that they aren't uploading updates on Discord.
