Tekken 6 Update 1.03 < PREMIUM ⇒ >

Tekken 6 Update 1.03 was a significant post-launch patch released in January 2010

Did 1.03 Fix Tekken 6?

The short answer: Partially.

• Expand pressure strings slightly; exploit improved move frame data for safer pressure.
• Re-optimize combos for higher damage or easier execution.

• Bob’s Dominance: Bob, the new speed-weight character, was virtually unstoppable. His d+1+2 launcher and wall carry were considered broken.
• Infinite Stages: Some stages had invisible walls that didn’t function correctly, leading to infinite combos.
• Netcode Desyncs: Online ranked matches frequently desynchronized, causing both players to see different outcomes.
• Save Exploits: Players could disconnect without penalty, corrupting leaderboards.
