Not preordering shit until netcode impressions and info at least.
>>
>>339263609
lol if you think the console version has more than that. It's just that you can't see the numbers for console. Fighting games are a niche genre compared to many other games, the only games with decent numbers are the very few big names like SF, MK and Tekken and even then they are omly big compared to fighting games. The hardcore base is the one that matters.

Wonder who they have doing the music for this game because it sounds a hell of a lot better than most of what's been in the series since 2003 or so. That blues/country rock theme for the Fatal Fury Team is pretty damn good and a huge step up from the generic rock tracks they've had for a long time now.

For that $80 Spicy Edition? Hell yeah. Spent $100+ on SFV's collector's edition and it's honestly the only time I felt burned on a pre order. Got a 20-page art book, a 3-day-subscription to Capcom Fighters Twitch (which I'm saving for EVO,) a "sampler" of five songs, some post cards, and a statue of Ryu.

I think in the stage select of recent builds it says the song name.

Also, Saxophone Under the Moon is basically the best song title ever.

So you would rather have fighting games with nothing but men? Some of which are totally jacked and may or may not be half naked rather than looking at some women that may have tight bodies and may or may not be half naked or wear tight form fitting clothes? I don't know man, that sounds pretty gay to me.

>>339265776
The ost so far sounds closer in quality to 99-2000, which is great.

XIII had some great melodies, but the arrangement wasn't too great. This is specially obvious when you compare the XIII arrangements of songs like Arashi 2 and Goodbye Esaka to their original arranged versions.

I am curious to see how masses and reviews and such take on XIV when it comes out.

Even with lacking graphics, I am willing to assume that lots of content, story/arcade mode, unlockables in gallery, tutorial and bunch of other shit will get the game points.
And I feel that SFV being so barebones helps in that, as the amount of stuff XIV will have in comparison will seem huge.
>>
KoF will hit every nostalgia bell with characters that actually resemble what they were in their prime.
SFV looks like literally shite with Orc feet and cartoon caricature style and animation, looks garbo friendo, haven't been able to play Street Fighter because of it, much as i hate to admit it.

I don't expect any fighting game to beat out SF. It's a shitty fact of life, but SF is a necessary pillar for the FGC, the "heart"of it if you will. Most people believe that the people burned by a lack of content in SFV will see KoFXIV and happily buy it. That's not the case, especially considering most casuals only interaction with any game featuring SNK characters was CvS2. The loss of a sale for Capcom is not a copy sold for another fighting game.

The matter of the fact is asking if the visuals are actually as bad as people claim. We understand the animation emulates old KoF titles, but every person that's played the demo has said it looks better in person. We don't know how much better, but it's already an indicator that watching YouTube videos of old builds and trailers is not the way to estimate how the game will look at launch.

It was used a lot early on in SF4 because other stages caused framerate drops in certain instances. Other time it was confirmed that not all the other stages caused that but people just got used to using it I guess.

Isn't she? I can understand if it's Ryo due to his fighting spirit (and role in AoF,) but it's cannon that Yuri is considered to have mastered Kyokugenryu to the point that she adds in moves for fun.

Didn't she get taught a watered down version because takuma was initially against her learning it or somethimg?

I'm pretty sure Robert's about as strong as Ryo is.

I always thought KOF Yuri was weaker than the two due to less formal training (since Takuma refuses to train her any further) and she compensates with all these wacky makeshift techniques that she invents up.

Yuri is a master in her own right, Takuma taught her only the very basics, and within two years she managed to create her own form with no outside help, though as you can tell its geared more towards self defence. Shed probably be considered a genius or prodigy by martial arts standards

If only you were right. Capcom gave so much of a shit that they let them ruin SFV. And once it came out and people bitched, look who they turned to to get it fixed.

I think most people would agree that KOF 98, KOF 2002, and KOF XIII are the highlights of the KOF series, but are there any other KOF games that you guys really like?

I personally love KOF 2000. The assist/stryker system seems like it has a huge amount of potential for combos, and the art/style of the game (backgrounds, OST) is exceptionally on point.

I was watching a KOF 2000 TAS earlier and it completely blew me away

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQjYDn2I__c
P.S. anyone want to Fightcade?
>>
>>339277556
How'd they ruin it aside from MUH SINGLE PLAYER CONTENT? Because I never see people on /v/ bitching about the actual gameplay when they say it's ruined, just whining that they don't have a shitty story mode or whatever.
>>
>>339278172
SFV came out in the half finished state it did because they prioritized adjustments suggested by the community over making a competent product for themselves. I'm not saying it's not their fault, but it was tripping over themselves to please their fans that did the game in.
>>
>>339278115
It's fucking garbage. Can you actually remember what the Japan or Fatal Fury teams ahd as music? What about the Ikari Warriors? The only good KoF soundtrack since 2000 is 02UM and even that has some shit/generic songs (Yagami Team; shitty arrangement of Bloody)
>>
>>339277789
He does?
>>
>>339278554
The roster sucks and almost every character has an identical frame trap/pressure focused gameplan. V triggers are just a rip off of KoF universal installs (albeit with some character specific depth) and the trimming out of close range unique normals was just lazy. It's a bad game, anon. Not worth anywhere near $60 in any case.
>>
>>339278637

>Capcom has been doing this for years
>SFV turns out bad and it's the comp players fault

No, capcom rushed it out for investors. Blaming comp players only makes you look like some shitter crying over no arcade mode.
>>
>>339278516
But XIII was ass
>>
>>339278516
98 is my favorite since I truly learned how to git gud with it learning how to play everyone

99 I learned how to play it properly on arcades but the roll system was awful and the roster limited

00 was broken because fucking strikers and infinites with easy 100% combos

01 was just bad in every aspect

02 was good but the balance was fucked up, also everyone on steroids and speed fucked as well, they thought that giving mostly everyone easy chainable lows and easing the combo timming would somehow make for a good game, roster also suffers, still, 2nd most decent game after 98

03 was shit, XI got fucked with the tag system, XII didn't exist, XIII is okay but the touch of death combos easily doable and the game revolving around HD combos just fucked everything over again

I'd say 98 vanilla is the best followed by 02 UM and XIII/09 then XI for me
>>
>>339278554
game trying to be always connected cause of currency earning you buy DLCs for, to point it fucked up some local tournaments here and there cause of disconnect from servers during LOCAL multiplayer
>>
>>339278516
2000 because of the hype as fuck selection screen music
XI because it's the last game with classic sprites and the best cast in the entire series, also great OST

Too bad 14's OST sound less than stellar
>>
>>339278516

I like 2000 as well.
>>
>>339278962
No, XI got fucked by Kula/Gato/Oswald
>>
>>339278516
'99 and 2000 are pretty fun if broken games and have probably the best non-dream match rosters in the series.
>>
>>339278759
>XI Japan, FF, Ikari themes are shit
>02UM Yagami and Bloody are shit
Okay, sir. I like '96-'97-'98-'99 OSTs just as much as you do (maybe not '00 though), but let's just agree to disagree.

'01-OG '02-'03-Neowave-XII were shit though and XIII is just consistently mediocre-to-okay.
>>
>>339278975
Shit tastes, XIV 's music sounds great so far.
>>
>>339279201
XIII's is shit simply for having the absolute worst rendition of Geese's theme ever.
>>
>>339278769

He patched stuff people did before one of the games came out even though it was something used in competitive play, because fuck them

He has outright said how his game doesn't aim for their demographic

And remember how nintendo wanted smash not to be streamed at evo at first but quickly changed their tune when everyone was egging them

They despise the FGC but can't do anything about them because money
>>
>>339278962
>and speed fucked as well
I liked 02UM's speed, going back to the other games feels fucking weird to me now
>>
>>339279236
Any samples somewhere? I could be wrong and just heard the worst ones
>>
>>339279413
Kim's theme is GOAT.

Mexico's and Yagami's are based as fuck.

Just watch Stunfest tourney vids, the sound quality is excellent, not to mention higher levels of play.
>>
>>339279141
I found the team swapping easy infinites a worse threat than Kula/Gato/Oswald, even though they were unbalanced as fuck nothing was worse than watching your health bar go because you got hit by the touch of death on an easily reproduceable combo just because some faggot wanted to make MvC2 without tagging cooldown as long as you had the bar for it
>>
>>339279413
The clearest you are going to hear are the new team trailers. Saxaphone under moon sounds spectacular and The new esaka theme is good. Mexico stage from what ive heard of it is pretty chill. FF team's is just another rendition of their XIII one, not my favorite
>>
>>339279349
Not really different from other XIII themes.

Each Promise is the only good one in that game.
>>
>>339279201
The problem is that seemingly most of the old sound guys left after 2000 and the results show because there's no life or creativity in the soundtracks. The "arranged" soundtrack for XI (I don't even remember if XIII had one) sounds basically exactly the same with some very, very minor tweaks to the songs but nothing to justify calling it a different soundtrack.

02UM's soundtrack is generally pretty good, it's just that some songs kind of suck because the composers really went all in on the hard rock and some times it just didn't work (no jazzy theme for Yagami Team is just dumb) but a lot of their other songs are really good. Pretty Girls Team, Igniz, Fatal Fury, AOF, Women, Agents, Orochi New Face Team, Kula/Foxy/Angel and probably some others I'm forgetting all have really good themes.
>>
>>339279712
Each promise is top tier yes, but something is wrong with you if you thought AoF's theme and Second Joker werent great.
>>
>>339279367
A part of me wonders if he just resents them for wanting more games that are a product of unhealthily obsessive overworking like Melee

You can really tell the difference with Arashi no Saxophone in XIII compared to the '96 AST. The saxophonist for the former is so fucking bad.
>>
>>339278759
The Ikari Team music is the best track from XI.

What would you do if you made something for children with all your effort and love to be played in a comfortable environment just to have fun and suddenly saw a bunch of apes and fat neckbeards obsessing over your stuff turning it into scorn central trying to step over each other competitively to the point of making it unhealthy, that said they had to suck it up, remember how they are aiming to the FGC now despite Sakurai's objections
>>
>>339278516
2002 is bad.
>>
>>339279758
Well, XI arranged soundtrack is one of those times when the original one just sounds better. The AST was watered down with too much eletronic samples and the guitars were less heavy. But overall, I can't deny XI themes are energetic and catchy as fuck, almost like in the ole days.

I like the experimental approach in 02UM OST and how they went all out on the hard rock shit. That was like my dream KOF OST. It's my favorite but I can understand if some themes don't fit for some fans.

>>339279890
Okay, I did stretch it a bit. I like Second Joker and some other songs (but not AOF's, sorry bro), but the rest is pretty forgettable.
>>
>>339280621
Nope, unless you're one of those people who insist that KOF isn't good unless it's as close to 98 as possible
>>
Where i can find the Mexico Team Stage Theme from KOF XIV?
>>
>>339280198
Yeah, it's a shame if SNK isn't getting some of the old AST performers to do the music this time. There's really no excuse not to have Jun Kajiwara (who was the guitarist on their stuff starting with Fatal Fury Special) and the like to do that. IIRC the guy who played drums on most of their '90s ASTs (they had really good drumming) was Nobuo Eguchi.

And yeah, the saxophonist they SNK used for their '90s ASTs was Osamu Koike who was also the saxophonist on Tank! so yeah not using him is really fucking stupid.
>>
>>339281134
they all possibly might be retired
>>
>>339281134
"Tank!"? Holy shit, where did you find all that info?

Got some other trivia?
>>
>>339280871
vanilla 02 was pretty bad
02UM was significantly better
>>
>>339281457
This, UM brought forward much needed change, except of course reskinning tetsuo, fucking niggers
>>
>>339281230
Most of them are still active musicians, most of them are session musicians and the like.

>>339281350
SNK wiki has a list of different composers and some performers so it wound up being something I came across looking up stuff from the different performers after finding out who they were.

Kajiwara's was the guitarist on the Budokai games and Star Ocean 3 for instance. Divine Spirit of Language is pretty obviously his work right from the opening guitar bit which, if you've listened to enough of the more rock-oriented SNK songs, stands out.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlV1hsOd_WA

I guess another interesting little fact is that Akira Jimbo did drum work on a few of the '90s ASTs (AOF3 and KoF '96). He's a pretty famous jazz fusion drummer with Casiopeia (fun fact: Casiopeia was one of Shoji Meguro's big influences) and did the ending theme for Tonari no Seki-kun.

>>339278962
>I'd say 98 vanilla is the best
What about UM and UMFE?
>>
>>339282151
I didn't mind Nameless. Tetsuo was cooler but Nameless was fine too I feel. Biased because he's fun and kinda overpowering with meter to play though.
>>
>>339282151
Nameless is such a shitty design.
>>
>>339282285
I didn't like the changes it brought forward which were mostly balance issues, UM fucked the tiers more and made krauser and iori living nightmare, UMFE made Iori a living nightmare and thankfully nerfed krauser, but nerfed him into shit, they basically tried to reinvent the wheel
>>
>>339282285
UM is unbalanced, but UMFE is the best unless you really liked chris having a stupid air CD
>>
Anybody wanna play KOF2002UM on Steam?
>>
>>339282450
Krauser is NOT shit in FE, Hes still good just not by far the single best character in the game. Iori is Iori so its nothing new, im more bothered by the nerfs kyo got for no reason. I still like FE most because of the buffs they gave to the entire cast. They really should have removed that unblockable bug though.

Lin's over-the-top as hell, makes me think that he was planned to be a boss at one point and then dropped.

Seth's fine, fun moveset too. Sucks that the Agent Team never became mainstays, they're all really cool and distinctive in look and feel amongst the rest of KOF's cast.

I'm bummed the only one to return is Ramon, the worst one by far. His moveset was a clusterfuck of shit

It seems like SNK replaced a lot of their voice talent which sucks. Capcom shifts voice actors around for Street Fighter quite a bit but a lot of these characters have had the same VAs since they were introduced.
