>>333418934
So what's with the shadow characters that have descriptions?
>>333418872
IR STEER MY HAND FROM YOU
>>333419223
Characters that are yet unrevealed, but are also new to this game so we don't know their names. And for their appeareances, pic related is all we have to go off.
>>333419223
New characters.
>>333419223
They haven't been officially revealed
>>333419223
The leak came from some Chinese guy who saw pictures of the roster or something.
I'm going to main Kula!

If they add your team members cheering in the background it'll be perfect
New trailer tomorrow?

Hopefuly, they were great.
Although I hope they don't get rid of the dialogue boxes, having the two would be a great combination.

Agreed.
>>333420170
South Americans are tanned irl
>>333418934
The original leak (chinese text with mangled translations) is from February 2015.

*Sylvie
Official Invitation team, the one on the left. Doesn't look THAT much like her, does she? That's the reason I implied that even though we have a general idea of how they might look like, those pictures still leave a lot out. Nelson looks a woman there, too.
>>333420416
Got an eye problem? She is the big eyed thing on the Official Invitation team, she looks like that because Athena and her were designed by a different artist, in contrast with the majority of the roster.

Hopefully changed to be a some other NESTS theme so I don't have to play that dumb useless cunt.
>>333422470
Dialogue boxes weren't exclusive to Arcade Mode in XIII though, Story Mode has them and it was in a different manner to boot, Arcade Mode is conversation one-on-one, in Story Mode the whole team talked with each other, although only in select pre-determinted match-ups, unlike Arcade Mode where one character has a thing to say to every other character..
I wonder if a general team structure is going to be Battery/Whatever/Guy with amazing specials so you can burn max mode on the last team member and just use ex moves all day
>>333422602

No.
>>333422602
UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT OF LOVE
>>333422885
Could be. Alternativelly character that can easily combo into max super and cancel it to climax for some good damage will work as anchor too.
The thing that I'm so excited about is the potential of MAX mode actually being varied thing where different characters and different players use it differently.
Will you save up meter until you get in and then pop it mid combo for the extended damage, or do you pop it in neutral so you have easier time to get in ?
Actual potentially interesting decisions that weren't there with HD mode.
But will Iori have saxaphone playing in his theme?
>>333420320
I'm really white though.
Three Thursdays before the event at 25th.
We have time to get to 13th teaser before that.

I wonder if "The King of Fighters" tournament has a comitee or something, ever since Fatal Fury any criminal with enough money can host one.
>>333418737
Me too anon. I just hope the graphics continue to improve.
>>333418603
Geese's stage is best looking one so far, no doubt.
>>333418934
why does Kim look like a pre-teen in this?
>>333424636
Depends by the year. Some times it's set up by one rich and powerful man like Geese and Rugal and some times, after it got more famous, it has been big event set up by corporations.
In same vein, it's sometimes invite only and sometimes more open.
>>333418603
See that's the thing about sprites. They're expensive that it affects animations and moves being in the game. But now that it's 3d...
>>333425001
Yeah, they've been having problems with faces. They're mostly fine, but then you get to Kyo, Kim and Athena and then you remember they don't have any experience doing this 3D stuff.
Reminder that you will NEVER EVER
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8C3-v6Aq7gI
>>333425001
Kim never looked too old for a 32 years old dude actually.
>>333425214
>then you remember they don't have any experience doing this 3D stuff.
Surely you mean experience with SUCCESSFUL 3D stuff.
Back in the nineties SNK tried their hands on 3D fighters more than Capcom actually.
>>333425503
>more than Capcom actually.
Really? The only 3D fighting game from them I can recall right now is Wild Ambition. I guess there's also the Maximum Impact games, but those weren't developed by SNK proper.
>>333425270
Overrated.
The HCBF LK and the timing for the first punch are the hardest parts, rest is just trivial.
>>333425735
Whoa dude, were living under a rock in the nineties?
Fatal Fury Wild Ambition
Samurai Shodown 64
Samurai Shodown Warrior Rage

>>333425020
>>333424636
What baffles me is why Geese did not put a copyright trademark on the King of Fighters tournament. Fucker could become the Lex Luthor of fighting tournaments in game if he had done that.
>>333422872
No one cares about the story mode though.
>>333426403
To date Geese did not run or organize a single King of Fighters tournament.
>>333426403
Maybe that's why he's back.
>>333426403
>implying he didn't
>implying Rugal, NESTS and whoever it was that organized the 2003, XI and XIII tournaments didn't help Geese make mad dosh
>>333426560
What about Art of Fighting 2 and Fatal Fury?
>>333426490
Did you just type that in a KOF thread?
Are you lost?
>>333426560
...Fatal Fury?
>>333426560
Surely you are limiting yourself to the King of Fighters canon.
>>333426720
You mean those not KoF games? Neither of them were even tournaments.
>>333426859
It doesn't matter that they weren't KOF games, they both had a tournament that was explicitly called The King of Fighters.
>>333426859
The full game title is literally Fatal Fury: King of Fighters
What is wrong with you
>>333426859
>Neither of them were even tournaments.
Dude, no.
>>333426859
Whoa bro, is your knowledge limited to leaks?
>>333426859
>Neither of them were even tournaments.
dude what
>>333426859
>The concept was first introduced in Fatal Fury: King of Fighters, although canonically, the first time a King of Fighters tournament was ever held was in Art of Fighting 2. Recently, the tournament's most prominent appearances are in The King of Fighters series, which was based on the idea developed on both series.
>>333423537
This may be the case depending on the nature of different characters' EX moves. For example, King gets double strike in MAX mode which improves her zoning, but maybe Vice will get her anywhere grab EX sleeve from XIII and be able to combo off of random air-to-airs.
>>333427020
>>333427097
>>333427113
>>333427216
I honestly forgot the tournament plot to Fatal Fury. I only remember it as being a revenge story. I am aware it was called Fatal Fury: King of Fighters.
But in KoF canon Geese hasn't ran a KoF tournament.
>>333426760
But no one cares about the story mode.
>>333427403
King also gets ground bounce to EX tornado kick, which means longer combos.
>>333427572
He did in King of Fighters Ex :^)
>>333427676
>canon
>>333427676
I'm like 98% certain EX isn't canon.
>>333427573
Are you lost good sir?
>>333427757
>>333427758
It's canon to the KOF Ex series.
>>333427574
Huh, didn't know about that.
Anybody know if footage from Nemo's event on Friday is going to be uploaded to YouTube or anything?
>>333427676
EX is not canon even to itself.
>>333428013
Aren't there like 10 sacred treasures instead of 3 in that universe? It feels kinda different when sacred treasure holders outnumber hakkeshu.
Maybe with the final boss of this game, the story will conclude with all these alternate spin offs and timelines converging and we have one single King of Fighters continuity.
>>333428394
>wanting Maximum Impact to be canon
>>333428394
Hopefully not.
I'd rather SNK to do well enough that they can, alongside with KoF, do new Fatal Fury, SamSho and Last Blade.
>>333428240
It's a different set of treasures to the Three Sacred Treasures I think? Not 100% sure about it
>>333428394
Aside from maybe Rock, they pretty much can use whoever they want in the roster anyway though
and the only thing Rock has going for him is lore anyway, him not being in KOF is no big deal
>>333428610
Which is more likely, Rock becoming playable in a mainline KOF game or K9999 making a canon return?
>>333428959
Rock becoming playable in mainline KoF.
All the "he is too young" arguments are bullshit, as it's trivial for KoF to just ignore time and do what it wants. And it already does that.
>>333424586
>someone else loves this version
Goddamn you're my favorite anon right now.
>>333428959
Bringing Rock to KOF canon shits on FF lore which it already does by having Geese be alive.
Bringing K9999 back to KOF canon brings potential legal trouble AND shits on the Nameless fangirls (who apparently exist and outnumber K49's fanbase)
>looks like horse shit
>50+
>made by old broken bought out SNK
>single console exclusive
This game is going to be an ugly unbalanced pile of shit and you people are going to eat it like its a gourmet meal.
>>333429389
KOF messing with the timeline happens before character introductions, like with the AOF cast being the same age as the FF cast and Garou characters appearing in XI looking as old as they are.
Rock is a particular case in which he already appeared as a kid in KOF, and that is settled in stone, KOF has never contradicted itself in-story, they literally had to make another continuity, Maximum Impact, to have Rock playable.
>>333429916
Do you really think KoF might smash SF's ass? Those are some really sweet words, man.
>>333427573
>no one cares about the story mode
>In a series that regularly rotates characters and for a while treated them like they had lives beyond yearly KOF tournaments
>>333430069
There's nothing preventing them to make him playable as a kid.
>>333430134
SFV might be ass but atleast they had the decency of cutting back on things in development instead of rushing them.
KOF14 is going to be garbage.
>>333430186
>Kid Rock
No thanks, daddy cool.
>>333429916
>looks like horseshit

>50+
That's not a bad thing. Having only 12 characters at launch then nickel and dimed over several years for the rest is.
>made by old broken bought out SNK
As opposed to old, broken bought out Capcom?
>single console exclusive
Calm your tits, PCfag. You'll get it in a year or two.
>>333430310
Got something against SNK?
>>333430186
But there is.
- 8 years old.
- Can't fight
>>333430409
>That's not a bad thing.
WOW, nice retort. You got any actual reasons to back that up?
>>333429916
>looks like horse shit
It looksmeh
>50+
KOF has always had big rosters, it's a 3v3 game after all
>made by old broken bought out SNK
They have loads of their talent back. Not trying to start company war shit here but Capcom's the one hemorrhaging talent yet that hasn't stopped people from trusting them, the concerns are even less applicable here.
>single console exclusive
what does that even have to do with anything
that being said I don't doubt that a Steam release will happen down the line
>>333430310
>implying capcom didn't RUSH the everliving shit
What game are we talking about here, again?
>>333430654
Reading comprehension much, faggot?
>>333430524
Either a Capcom fanboy or a PCuck salty he has to wait a year to post goldfaces and "PC WINS AGAIN" threads.
>>333430550
More content > less content
Get what you paid for > Being jewed out
>>333430409
>implying all console warriors are PCfags
Come on, I'm a PCfag and I don't approve of that faggot. If it helps SNK stay afloat, I have no issue with letting XIV be a console exclusive for a while.
>>333430310
Instead of rush, what?
SFV was literally rushed out as a full priced game and we still have some base features that hasn't been implemented yet, well over a month after release.
KOF 14 is currently work in progress, they're improving on things as the trailers goes and we have yet to even see an official release date.
Who's rushing what now?
>>333430750
>More content > less content
Wow, how can I argue with such a flawless statement.
>>333430310
>but atleast they had the decency of cutting back on things in development instead of rushing them.
KOF14 is going to be garbage.
Which is why SFV was released rushed and incomplete?
Ok.
>>333430310
You're probably going to take what I'm saying here as a jab at Capcom, I'll say beforehand that this isn't what this is
SF5 isn't even intended to be a full package. It's the base of a game that they'll fill out over time, that's the buisiness plan they've opted for here. Nothing to do with "rushing" the game here at all.
Games like Tekken and KOF are intended to be full packages from the get go. It's just a different approach companies can take, nothing more or less.
>>333430938
>>333430975
>>333430989
So, SNKfags just can't read properly?
I never said Capcom didn't rush it. Read the fucking post.
>>333431084
>I never said Capcom didn't rush it.
Neither did I, read my fucking post. I'm saying that neither company is rushing anything.
>>333430989
It still costs 60 burgers and it still has nowhere near enough content to justify that price.
>>333431207
Holy crap, no wonder you people are sucking this game up.
You're all literally retarded.
Whatever, I'm out of here.
Okay /v/ who many copies is this game gonna have to sell for it to be considered a success both in and outside of the FGC?
And if this game does well for its intended audience what would the possibility be of getting a Garou game that looked like that Pachinko slot machine?
>>333430989
>>333431084
>literally trying to start shit
Can YOU not read properly? He just said they handle how the push content out differently, nothing about either company rushing.
Just have the gameplay feel like the classic King of Fighters and from what I've been hearing, the people who played it in those Asian tour shows/conventions have been pretty positive on this aspect so far.
Graphics can come later and they're improving bit by bit anyways.
So, what is the issue here?
>>333431502
>what would the possibility be of getting a Garou game that looked like that Pachinko slot machine?
Is this nigger serious?
>>333430654
Remember that SNK is a medium-sized company (with most of its old talent PLUS some of Capcom's old talent as well, re: the 3rd Strike character designer) working full time on XIV and only on XIV. They have enough manpower to produce this single game at the pace they are without rushing things or cutting unnecessary corners. When they tell you something is a work in progress, it means they are working on it and making progress.
Compare that to Capcom that deliberately cut down as much content it could from SFV just to nickel and dime the players as much as possible, banking on a pseudo-freemium (without the free) business model, delays things as long as it can get away with and produces >>333430134 as an end result, with no plans of fixing things anytime soon.
>>333431407
Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out, faggot.
>>333421351
You got an uncensored version of that?
>>333431502
>Okay /v/ who many copies is this game gonna have to sell for it to be considered a success
Only SNK knows that. Will they tell us, like Capcom did? That's the question.
>>333431553
The graphics. That's 99% of the problem here for some reason, despite the majority of good things I've heard about how it plays.
I just want to see if that praise holds up.
>>333431628
>the 3rd Strike character designer
He's at SNK? Most SF3 characters sucked balls.
>>333431502
They said they were happy enough with how their KoF games sold on Steam, so I'd imagine it's not anywhere near the 2 million Capcom wants to make off SFV.
Who is hyped for the stream on the 8th? It'll be at 9pm japan time which isvlike 5 am pacific.
>>333431765

A newcomer would be fine. I'd also like it if they revealed Nakoruru.
>>333432292
The rest of the new Hero team. I'm hyped to see Tung back in the spotlight and want to know who or what exactly the pillow child is supposed to be.

jesus christ Robert calm down

SNKP said Steam ports kept them going, so maybe after their deal with Sony runs out.
>>333434879
Damn, so they had plans to keep her going like that.
>>333435754
Glitch obviously.
>>333436908
Not really, after AOF all following instances of King's top blowing off after transitioning to KoF only happened as K.O. effects, she going another around like that never happened again.
>>333420170
because they're Argentinian
>>333420170
the real question here is, why isn't the mexico team short, ugly and fat
>>333428394
I wonder if the KoF XIV final boss looks like DC comic's Anti-Monitor without a helmet, since they're apparently going for a big multiversal event.
It'd be fun if his stage or the alternate world team's were a callback to Ryo's FFS stage, which kind of looked like a sort of limbo where some AoF ended up by accident...
>>333437945
for the same reason Kim isn't an ugly gook and Terry and Andy are perfect aryans instead mordibly ovese murricans; gotta keep the cast clean and pretty, save a few exceptions.
>>333428552
Duke and Chae Lim were fine, as was Lilly's alternate outfit.

From the concept art it kind of looks like a reptilian alien thing, still gotta see a full body shot and how that translates to in-game.
>>333438364
It's a known fact that Ken dyes his hair blonde
>>333421360
>>333421690
These two in the same game when?
>>333438364
Also Ryo hair colors are always inconsistent, in some games he's brown, in other games he's a redhead, in other games he is blond with black eyebrows, etc
>>333439062
I honestly never hope to see ArcSys and SNK doing something together; they just never said anything about each other.
>>333439258
red hair Ryo is worst Ryo
>>333432292
I'm betting on Joe.
Hoping for Daimon/Yuri/Mature/Kensou to close their teams and a newcomer as well.
>>333432952
Think of it this way: SF uses 6 buttons and KoF uses 4, which considering KoF's extra jump options means the executions leans a bit more toward directions than to the attack buttons.
Remember rolls introduce their own rock-paper-scissors factor (roll beats strike beats throw beats roll) for a more mobile alternative to blocking.
>>333439258
It's not as ever changing as you make it to be; even with all the inconsistencies Ryo still has been more consistently blond than anything else at the end of the day.
>>333439258
I want tease Ryo with a centipede!

I imagine there must be bad blood, since when SNK went bankrupt in 2001 some ex SNK people went to work for Sammy who at the time had ArcSys by the balls, the other survivors with Capcom, then by 2004 Sammy got swallowed up by Sega and some ex SNK, ex Sammy people got shoved away again from a sinking ship and went to Capcom

it's always a mess, his artwork was blonde, his ingame sprite was redhead, in AoF 2 onwards he was blonde, in XIII he was a redhead again, in Buriki one he had blonde eyebrows, in wild ambition he had black eyebrows...

I mean, why
>>333440252
XIII's artwork actual depicts Ryo as blonde again, but his sprite didn't change to reflect that oddly enough. Weird considering that Athena had essentially the same design she did in XII, just with different colors, and they bothered to change her sprite for that
>>333440372
I call it Shin-Shinkiro Akuma, or Shin-kiro Akuma for short
>>333439968
THIS WILL BE A MATCH TO REMEMBER
>>333440519
probably a nod to the first AoF, since that's exactly what happened there as well, Ryo's artwork was him all blonde but spritewise he was a redhead
>>333440515

It happens to everyone. Even if you could theoretically beat your dad up, all he has to do is do his dad voice and you cower in the corner like the bitch you are. Like the anon, it's embedded on your genes, and takes a great amount of effort to overcome, even if for a minute.
It baffles me the NGP fighters weren't repacked as some bonus content in modern KOF's; will the end of times come and the NGP games will remain in that plataform only?

Is the Steam version of UM 2002 as good as it looks? It's been sitting in my wishlist for a long time.
>>333442248
Yes.
>>333442248
2k2UM >>>>>> vanilla 2k2
and yeah, performance issue it runs on toasters and the netcode isn't all that bad, it also does not have the issues controllers had with the ps2 title which made the inputs harder to do for some reason
>>333442096
I actually did (and still do) own a NGPC, so I know how great these little games are. But that's my guess as to why they haven't done it.
>>333442248
It's good, but the netcode is pretty so-so, and as a result the online population is quite low. Stuff like this is why I really hope they get the netcode right for XIV
>>333442248
KOKO DESU KA?Yes.
>>333442248
Yes. Was just playing not 5 minutes ago, shit's great.
>>333442517
I should mention that I've generally had better experiences playing online in 02UM Steam than in 98UMFE on Steam
>>333438338
>Duke
Nah. Chae Lim is cool, though.
>>333418934
So will Kensou be wearing a non-faggy outfit this time around?
>>333443206
He seems like he's going back to his plainer blue look he had before XII, and thank God for that.
>>333443206
He's going back to the hoodie so unfortunately no
>>333442684
Duke was one of the few MI characters that actually looked like an SNK character. Badass evil gang leader guy.
I'd rather they keep that up rather than NESTS' Cape guys or Ash Saga's charismaless monsters of the week.
Duke is cool, I could even see him fitting in the FF/AOF universe.
>>333443206
You hating bro? Kensou only wears stylish things, even green kung-fu gettups.
Anyway, he is back to street wear, concept art shows he has some jacket with yellow details.
>>333443206
he's back to the hoodie.
Shame, Kung Fu Kensou was the only time the character was ever cool.
I hope it's a cool hoodie this time, at least.
>>333443206
Kensou and Athena looked their best in XIII.
>>333443520
>Kensou and Athena looked their best in XIII.
>>333443520
True for Athena at least
She looks terrible in XIV, both the artstyle and the costume
>>333443306
>to his plainer blue look
Check again, the yellow detail alone shows his wear is back to street style but not quite the same.
>>333443520
Kensou, yeah maybe (he had that look since XI, right?)
not Athena though, granted I'm biased here in that I don't like her school uniform costumes that much in general
>>333443513
>Shame, Kung Fu Kensou was the only time the character was ever cool.
The classic attire was cool but it seems you never played XI.
>>333443520
athena looked like a bug-eyed mutant but kensou i'll grant you.
>>333443758
Oh, he's getting a new hoodie? Well, nothing can be worse than his gay Psycho Soldier uniform, so bring it.
>>333443758
>>333443851
fuck, if it's true that dragon power is coming back to prominence I hope Kensou gets to be relevant to the plot again. it's about damn time.
>yfw Kensou canonically defeats the final boss
>this will neve rhappen because the new china team has to do it.
>>333443789
>(he had that look since XI, right?)
XII
>>333443584
sorry your tastes are shit. I don't really care for any chinese character SNK has made but the one other time he looked like a martial artist was the best.
>>333443942
Those shoes are horrendous.
>>333443926
Reminder that neither Ash or Elizabeth's teams got to win a single tournament.
>>333443942
He looks like a tryhard dickmuncher.
>>333424046
You don't go outside, you don't count.
>>333443926
That much is obvious since Classic Characters will always open way for the original KOF characters to save the day, still it doesn't mean Kensou can't a do a big thing on the side.
Absolutely no one expected his 99' ending back then.
>>333444054
yeah I know that's where it's from, I meant within KOF specifically
>>333443940
right, my bad
>>333444206
maybe he can beat the Russian boss or the Invitation team or something
>>333444090
yeah, but Ash at least has victories over Chizuru and Iori.
>>333443942
>but the one other time he looked like a martial artist was the best.
This.
In the same way, Kung Fu Athena from 94-98 was the best. 99-2001 were pretty good too, but she went too idol like starting with 2002 and even gained those shit moe eyes in her sprites, and then it's just plain, unispired schoolgirl attires after XI.
At least it's more stylized in XIV, but I want Kung Fu Athena back. She used to feel like a fighter who did some idol work on her spare time, now it's the opposite, just feels like an idol who just happens to fight too.
>>333432952
play KoF
>>333444315
the school uniform is how she debuted actually. snk wanted to use school athena from the beginning but decided against it until around xi.
>>333444090
Elizabeth won XIII.
The only thing that proves otherwise is a citation-less line from the wiki that says Team Japan won it, but anybody can edit the wiki.
>>333444286
>maybe he can beat the Russian boss or the Invitation team or something
Even if Kensou does something in this arc, it doesn't necessarily mean it will be in this game, arcs in KOF last for more than one game.
>>333444450
I know.
But as soon as they adapted the character to a fighting game in '94, they made her actually look like a fighting game character, which was neat.
Ironically, they did the exact opposite to Kensou, considering how he already looked like a fighter and they randomly gave him a hoodie and some gay shorts. Odd.
>>333444471
and what's your proof, bucko
surely you have some, since you're criticizing the wiki for not having any
Why is her eyes so fucked up?
>>333444640
I don't really understand how 94-99 Athena looks anything like a kung fu fighter to be honest. 2000 and 2001 definitely though.
Game wont be 2D so it's shit.
>>333444739
Not that guy, but XIII's intro has Elizabeth fighting on the final stage and she was close enough to the Gate where Ash ended it all for her to get his headband while crying.
>>333444764
Idol life sucks, just ask Sylvie.
>>333444931
here is your (YOU)
>>333444764
Work in progress. Now, specifically, they're using a different eye size and shape for Athena than for the rest of the cast, which clases with the rest of her model.
Same with Sylvie, but huge bug eyes are part of her motif so it works for her.
>>333444764
She looks like the potato girl from Star Ocean 5
new screenshot
>>333444931
do you mean plays as a 2d game, or muh sprites?
>>333444739
Everything in the game implies Elizabeth is the main character, her story and ending are the only ones that actually has anything to do with the final boss and the game's actual plot.
Plus, there's absolutely nothing that suggests Team Japan won it.
The wiki is pretty good for the most part, but I've come across some retarded shit. Like Geese's page saying the REAL final boss in RBFF is "Shadow", and you can only fight him if you're playing as Geese.
Shadow is just non sense fluff for Geese to be fghting himself if you're playing him. Garou did the same shit if you're playing Kain and Grant.
>>333445109
Sylvies eyes are proper, must be the eyeliner. Though I feel Athena's eyes are too spaced out or something.
>>333445273
After they showed XIII's sprites, anything less is a step back. And step backs are always failures.
>>333445273
I'm really, really pleased with the way Robert turned out for this one. The beard and stache make him stand out a lot more and help with facial expression. I just thought his design was really plain and his moveset was weak in XIII.
>>333445415
>XIII's sprites
They are inconsistent, lifeless shit, fuck off.
>>333445415
those sprites almost killd them financially, it took months just to do a single character, and as a result the roster they had planned was completeply impossible. as long as the game plays well I think this is better for them, especially if it means no more roid monsters.
>>333445456
Robert looks pretty good. He looks a little older and more mature, even.
Shame they played it too safe with Ryo, I wish we'd get something closer to the B1/NGBC design.
>>333445415
I guess something like SF's transition to chunky 3D models was a failure all because it didn't have the beautiful sprite animations of SF3? There seems to be a pattern with nice sprites and near financial ruin
>>333445456
I liked his moveset in XIII, but it really was too weak. It's kind of weird that he had so many tools, but ended up near the bottom of the tier list
>>333445456
It sucks they kept the theme of always remodelling Robert while Mr. Karate Ryo has never been in a mainline KoF, Maximum Impact notwhitstanding because it ain't mainline.
>>333445824
Steven Seagal was pretty cool
>>333445591
They have funding from their Chinese masters now, so they shouldn't worry about running out of money. The problem is that they fired all their spriters when they tried to go whole hog on the pachinko meme
>no more roid monstersi think the blocky roid man look worked for Maxima
>>333445701
Yeah. I really like Ryo's younger, more wild look he had in 2002. I guess it's more anime, but it suited him.
>>333445748
I know. I speak as someone who struggled to get Robert going as my 3rd slot. The weird flattened hairline that so many characters had in XIII really rubbed me the wrong way too, and Rob got it real bad.
>>333445950
Now he is fat so Robert must be Johnny Depp.
>>333446027

I am also a fan of Robert 'Orlando Bloom' Garcia. His looks are more in line with the 'European businessman' character setting.
>>333445824
I hope we get evil businessman Robert (bottom right) as an alt costume in XIV, assuming there are alts
I'd also love to see this bit of concept art realized as an outfit for Ryo
>>333446140
Then what was NGBC Robert? Antonio Banderas? He's really got a "latin lover" look with the open shirt and the samba-like idle pose.yes i know Banderas is Spanish
>>333446027
The roid look was specifically bad on Ralf and Clark but the others were fine.
>>333446140
I think he's a bit more Orlando Bloom though
>>333446453

The official sponsors are:
KOF 94 and 95: Rugal
KOF 96: Chizuru (she also built the stadium with her family money)
KOF 97: probably Satella View (the TV Network, not the SNES add-on)
KOF 99: Krizalid (NESTS)
KOF 2000: Clone Zero
KOF 2001: Master NESTS
KOF 2003: Adelheid and Rose
KOF XI: Magaki
KOF XIII: Rose (mind-controlled by Botan)
>>333427572
In KOF 94, the opening narration mentions "past tournaments", so it's implied Geese and Krauser hosted those.
>>333446453
That look would have worked great in a FF/AOF game.
Too old school for modern kof.

>>333445273
Did they always have differently-colored Haoh sho ko kens? Or is one of them the SDM version?
>>333445273
Is it just me or do Robert's pants look better?
>>333446868
Don't worry, you're not the only one that loathes the XII/XIII redesigns.
>>333446815
>Too old school for modern kof.
If this meant anything Terry literally wouldn't be in any KoF game, his design is the definition of nineties.
>>333445591
The sprites were gorgeous overall, but I feel like they might have caused even more damage than people realize. Several characters were straight-up missing moves, like Yuri's super slash, which I would guess was due to how much each frame was costing them. The art direction was hit or miss with me personally.
I'm not a fan of the brick shithouse approach they took with Terry, Ralf and Clark, and I didn't like the round, flattened look a number of characters had in their portrait art either, Robert and Andy in particular. Their hairlines looked like they were machined on and their hair was ironed on to their scalps. The flame effect they used for Iori, Ash and Kyo looked like shit too.
I liked XIII a lot, but I'm still glad they're moving on past it.
>>333446868
As someone who disliked many XIII redesigns, I thought Goro was fine.
He was always pretty bland, and I think the more stylized look did wonders to him.
>>333446875

Eh, I liked that look on him more than the old sprite.
>i am surprised more people don't dislike xii's nona abominations.
They were definitely very stylized, especially compared to the (relatively) realistically-proportioned sprites in previous KoF games.
>>333446912
in 98 Ryo has blue haoh sho ko kens, and Robert has orange ones. No difference in their SDM versions
>>333446337
I largely just like that his face has a distinct shape and attitude to it, and his hair has more volume and detail that stands out. I like Robert but he looked like a default create-a-character in XIII, and his nuthin' fancy moveset didn't help.
Glad to see they're doing him justice this time.
>>333447059
Even he looks more modern in XIV.
Though that Ryo looks even more old school than Classic Terry, like Lenny Creston levels of old school
>>333446027
>chinks
>putting money in for a quality product
You do know you are talking about a chink company owning SNK right? Chinks are notorious for being cheap and ruthless. If SNK doesn't deliver good results with XIV I'm sure they'll be the ones to bury SNK themselves. They've been doing wonders with what little budget they have. Let's say that they did have the budget to do 2D, they would have to start from scratch since Xiii sprites just wouldn't hold up to standards. The sprites themselves are sub HD, and as previously stated are ridiculously expensive and time consuming. The reason they went 3D was said by Oda himself that they couldn't find enough talented people who could do spritework and who could keep up with the production schedule. Fuck I love me some sprites too, but unless SNK becomes as famous and successful as it was in the 90's it would only kill them like xiii nearly did.
>>333446836
Are you joking or new? I'm honestly not sure.

You'd be surprised, but for everything SNK is lacking right now in detailing skin on different characters, they're doing some mad shit with the clothing. You can even look at Benimaru's "Thank you" clip in one of the last teasers and you'll see actual creases on his pants as he moves. Think part of the flak SNK is getting is that the clothing and accessories just simply outshine the skin that's on every character, but even that's improving with Ryo having visible veins and muscles on his body.

>>333448607
I just went back through all the teasers and I'm actually starting to dig the clean, sharp look they're going for. I'm also really impressed with how fast and snappy it's looking. I'm hoping it can run that fast on final release.
Also, holy shit I must have missed the 8th because I was not aware of how radical Vice was shaping up to be. Terry could still use some work though.

>>333449358
To be fair, they showed it off WAY too early. They didn't even really have significant gameplay to show us at that reveal. They'd have been better off just showing the logo until they had cleaned up a bit. It was just an announcement trailer, after all.

I didn't care since they said they were doing models for the next KoF like fucking years ago, I was upset because it looked like utter garbage in the first trailer, looks fine now though.
>>333449358
SNK Playmore even has a playlist dedicated to all the KoFXIV teasers. Weird to go back to the first one and see how it had around 1000 more dislikes than likes. Comments were even disabled. Funny enough though, the only channel who hosted that trailer that had more likes than dislikes was IGN, for some reason.

sorry man, roster was leaked and she's not on it.
>>333449645
I agree. Some characters were straight-up missing moves, to the point where I had to re-think my main team.
Also, was anyone new actually added for XII or XIII? If so, I've forgotten. The cast felt really limited after a while.

>>333450039

>>333449110
Are you the same as >>333443520?
If so, fuck (YOU)
>>333450336
They said it wouldn't be impossible for them to go back to sprites someday, but that it'd have to wait until SNKP as a whole is doing better. On top of that, they also mentioned (in regards to KoF) that doing sprite art is even more difficult these days because most students study 3D modeling versus 2D art/animation. It was literally a "there's no one who draws shit anymore" reason alongside their whole financial situation.
>>333450139
Claw Iori.
WHAAAOOooooOOOHHH
>>333450663
Personally I would rather they keep doing models just because they can recycle them and do alternate costumes more consistently. Remember that the reason they rehashed animations for so long is because it meant they could put most of their workload into new moves and characters. If they went back to sprites then they would most likely have a small roster to begin with and work their way up with each game. I guess they could wait till the next arc to do this though, then it would make sense.

Joe got cockteased during geese, so I imagine he'll be one of the ones shown.
>>333450989
>yfw from now on every trailer will have a character with a very brief appearance like Joe did, teasing them for the next trailer.
>>333450903
Pure love
>>333450525
With how long Rugal spends blown up, who's cucking who in the end?
>>333450885
Claw Iori was a selectable alt though with a totally different moveset, albeit a blander design.
>>333450885
>Also new Ralf if this applies.
I wish he kept JETTO GATORINGU, that has a dope super.
>>333451227
Other way around man, claw Iori was in XII and arcade XIII and then flame Iori was brought back as a DLC characters in console XIII. Semantics though.
>>333451215
>implying Rugal didn't hit it and quit it.
I fell in love with her when she was revealed at PSX
Literally, no other female vidya character did this to me.
>>333451072
That already happened with Angel and Ralf, they appeared before their actual trailers.
>>333451340
Anon please, they're raising two beautiful daughters together
>>333451114

That's a lewd Yukari
Somone have the "King butt" pic?
Never been able to fap to King but by god i couldn't think of anything else in bed yesterday
>>333452309
Fuck off
>>333450937
>I didn't like any of those characters. At all.
Fuck you.
>mfw no new trailer
The 6 trailer was the one that introduce all the character up to that point. From 1 to 5 it was just the character doing a move and nothing more..
>>333449358
Me too, I was one those people.
>>333452309
She has a better butt in old KOF.
>>333452436
Hey, I never said they were bad. Just not for me.
>>333452580
Bitches like them big hands.
ALONE ON A WEDNESDAY NIGHT?
MAYBE I CAN BE YOUR GIRLFRIEND.
>>333449358
>>333452608
Yeah,i think a lot of us where really mad to see what a loved franchise was turned up. Watching this https://youtu.be/2nn7MzYNqJg
Made me realize how much the game has.improved.
>>333452608
>actually wanted this to happen years ago due to sprites affecting game balance and roster
>finally happens and KOF goes 3d
>a bit skeptical, but decide gonna buy it anyway for the gameplay and not the graphics
>game actually looks good now
>mfw
Everything went better than expected.
>>333452654
>mfw all those shitty mobile games had art of king like this
>>333449358
>>333452608
Yeah, I'll admit the initial reveal made me pretty mad too. I wasn't part of the "NO SPRITES NO BUY" army, but holy shit that trailer looked ridiculously awful and I don't know why they thought that shit was a good idea at all.
>>333452920
>finally happens and KOF goes 3d
What about maximum impact?
>>333452654
Yea but they just don't do it for me for some reason
>>333453031
That wasn't team based was it? Dunno if they added any foreground mechanics.
But that game wasn't a part of the mainline kof.
>Kyo
>Ralf (and by extension, Clark)
>Terry
>Ryo
>Athena
We already got the big five of the founding franchises, seeing Nakoruru join them as the SS rep will be great, I hope she's in the next trailer.
>>333452920
It did, I'm glad that kof's transition to 3d looks good so far, I know they did the MI games, but they weren't very good, this looks much better.
>>333453031
>mfw falcoon's maximum impact abominations are in the anime
>>333453450
because it's a maximum impact anime, in fact it's even canon to the mi series.
>>333448726
WE WUZ GG'S N SHEIT
I still hate Kyo and terry's redesign so fucking much
>>333453310
Clark was also shown in the trailers.
I'm still mad that he hasn't been shown to have his teeth sparkle when doing his backbreaker (yet).
Holding out hope.
>>333453569
Terry is ok though
>>333453569
Terry's isn't a redesign, it's just his FF1 look updated with fresher colors and a different logo on his hat.
>>333453569
I can understand hating Kyo, his current outfit sucks compared to his Ash saga clothes and his face is still fucked, but what's wrong with Terry?
>>333453569
What its to hate about Terry??? It's a nod to his original FF costume. He looks good ok it.
>>333453656
>>333453657
>>333453689
>>333453776
I stand by what I said about Kyo, I guess I'm hard to terry, but he looks to anime for my liking and I never had that vibe before
>>333453569
Kyo is a faggot, so it works.
>>333453689
Not him but Terry's face is sort of doughey still, and I'm still a big fan of his old 90's-ass sleeveless jacket. I'm confident he'll improve over time though, and it's nothing major.
>>333453894
but he has a girlfriend anon
>>333453862
>too anime
i got some bad news for you fampai
>>333453894
No, Iori is the faggot. He'd play Kyo's saxophone if he let him.
>>333454092
Then why does he act like a bigger clownshoes than even K'?
>>333453862
He looks anything.but "animeish".
It's just that the change take you by surprise since it's seems you didn't know about the costume being a FF1 referenxe
>>333454104
iori had a girlfriend too but fujos killed her
>>333454151
cause he's a cocky jackass just like k'. maybe benimaru is fucking his gf behind his back because he's a bad boyfriend. idk man.
>>333449921
DELETE THIS
>>333454092
We watched that last night. Shit's all over the place in terms of QUALITY
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPvPsPk1r44
>>333454325
Nah, Benimaru wouldn't do that. He decided not to fuck Kula because she's young and stupid.
Benimaru is a good boy.
>>333454007
He looks like old Terry to me senpai
>>333454363
Hello?
>>333454437
yeah but he also said he'd try again in 5 years.
>>333454370
It's 90's Masami Obari what do you spect
>>333454539
Well, if she doesn't stop being stupid in 5 years then that's her fault.
>>333454660
I dunno, but watching them find new ways to fuck up Mai's face in every scene was pretty great. >>333452667
Terry looks great, I don't know what y'all complaining about.
>FF1 Terry
Even if you don't get the "reference", XIV is basically just his usual design with longer sleeves.
Kyo fucking sucks though, doesn't even look like Kyo. His redesign is part of the reason I got so mad at the first trailer, not even the graphics.
Gay Kyo made me think everybody else would look unrecognizable and gay too, good thing I was wrong, most redesigns are pretty great.
Some characters are the best they've been.
I think I'm going to play Kula and Nakoruru. Not sure on last character yet.
>>333454830
>y'all
It's just one guy, dude. I do agree with what you've said about Kyo, though. That shit was fucking unacceptable. He looks better now, but he's got quite a long way to go until he looks like Kyo.
>>333453862
What the fuck are you talking about he looks the same as he always has.
>>333454869
Luong looks great to me, and I'm looking forward to seeing how Angel plays this time. 3rd slot always has to wait until I can get hands on though.
>>333455231
Disregard that, I'm a fag, I though you meant Ryo. Kyo still looks off yeah.
>>333455026
He doesn't look "better" in fact he looks worse now. Left pic its from Sylvie trailer.
>>333455447
Oh god. He doesn't even look like Kyo. How do you let that happen.
>>333455447
So it's either Chinese idol with Michael-Jackson-syndrome or Alan Ruck. Huh.
>>333455447
He looks better in comparison to the first trailer.
I mean, even if you liked the face he had back then, it doesn't change that they somehow got his hair color completely wrong.
>>333455447
Just give him his split haircut back so there's at least some resemblance to the man known as Kyo
>>333455447
holy fuck, my sides
>those child molester eyes
>those michael jackson lips
>that dull expression
>that god awful hair
it's not even a matter of the graphics, that design choice is just fundamentally wrong. most of the other characters look acceptable but this is just bad.
>>333455568
Kyos hair was black in the 1st trailer. That was unforgivable.
>>333455447
What's with the tick eyebrows now?
I seriously don't get what they're trying to do with Kyo, they keep tinkering or sometimes overhauling his face every trailer, but he never looks like himself.
They know it looks off, but they don't seem to realize why, they just gotta make Kyo look like Kyo, it's that simple.
Just give him Kim's head and make a more rugged out head for Kim, and it's all fixed.
>>333455026
>It's just one guy
Right here, yeah
But I've seen people complain about Terry in other threads and other sites too. I'm surprised, I think Terry looks pretty great.
>>333455447
Inb4 they make this another Kyo clone because of how little he actually resembles Kyo
>>333455447
You guys always talk about Kyo, but I feel like Iori also looks off, especially when he talked in the 5th trailer. Them two, Athena, and Kula still need some heavy work imo.
>>333456038
>it was the long lost Kyo-3 all along
I'd believe it.
>>333456024
Guys usually have thick eyebrows. Especially if they're japanese.
>>333456091
>Kula
Are you high? Kula easily has the best model in the game
>>333456275
Her face looks odd.
>>333456024
I really hope they can figure out Kyo in time.
>But I've seen people complain about Terry in other threads and other sites too.
Really? That's weird. Maybe he looks a little too pale? I don't know, I can't really see what's wrong with him.
>>333456038
I'd take that at least,
>>333456091
Iori does look a bit off
>>333452654
no, she doesn't.
>>333456347
>Maybe he looks a little too pale?
Everybody does, to be honest. (Characters with dark skin apart)
I think that's one of the problems with the graphics, the clothes are super detailed and shiny, but their skin is not only under detailed, but also pale.
>>333456407
>>333456038
The real Kyo is taking his time to actually graduate, I guess.
>>333456583
Maybe he needs a wider chin
>>333456330
I don't see it. If anything I'd fix Athena's face by making it look like Kula.
>>333456758
I actually think it's because they toned down his pompadour. I love the new outfit but his hair obeying normal physics is absolutely haram.
>>333456703
Their skin looks off because it's too smooth without 'skin-like' textures. The skin in the char select screen renders look good to me >>333456583
>>333456583
I don't know, I think Iori looks great here.
>>333456583
Duck mouth kyo and iori
>>333456703
>The real Kyo is taking his time to actually graduate,
>Kyo
>Finishing school
>>333456330
She always had that moeblob face even in '00
>>333456758
Fuck no, that jaw was the worst part of that shitty OVA. And it was already a shitty OVA to begin with.
>>333456703
>The real Kyo is taking his time to actually graduate
Nah, he's probably boning Yuki in some dark alley somewhere.
>>333456984
Why not? At least then he'd become a high school dropout and never have to study again
>>333455447
At least they are trying to fix him now, but damn, watching that first trailer was like living a nightmare.
It's funny how of all the characters, it was Kyo the most fucked up.
k's team won 2003 right? i heard he was the one that beat mukai, is that true?also does kula have an innie or outie belly button in canon
>>333457279
>being this much of a pervert
>>333456794
Then maybe you're the blind one.
>>333455447
What trailer is the right picture from? It's definitely not trailer 1, nor is it any of the ones after Sylvie. Is it an edit?
>>333453776
>but
I'd like it better if they didn't decorate his clothes like he shops at the buckle. But yeah. I'm okay with the design.
>>333457032
>>333456794
It's not the face, it's her expression here. Makes her look a bit uncanny.
most of the characters are based on their xiii moves, correct? do we know if ralf and clark are the same or if they are based on older versions? ralf seemed like his new moves in the trailers.
Do you guys think Nelson has Vitiligo or is just a tattoo?
>>333457956
I think it's some facepaint shit.
>>333440164
>HE NEVER STOPS TALKING
holy shit
I'd forgotten about that.
>>333422398
>brit to inbred
you what? brits are inbreds
>>333457956
I think it's a scar. It must be somehow connected with his cybernetic arm.
>>333455447
he's probably right in the middle of being worked on
his face changes like every trailer
>>333457956
You can't have a reasonable lighter-shade tattoo (yes, "white ink" tattoos are a thing but they look hideous and degrade super quickly)
>>333457956
It seems to go all the way up to his hair, and I'm not sure why you'd use flesh-tone face paint. Might actually be vitiligo.
>>333456091
I didn't like Iori in the first trailer, but he looks ok now.
>>333457956
Maybe he's just really dirty and needs a shower. The white part is his actual skin colour.
>>333457906
AFAIK most of them actually got old moves back
>>333458117
>>333457956
I also assumed it was scarring from the accident that took his arm. He has those patterns on his torso too.
>>333458117
idk burning scars are more pink than white and also make the skin wrinkle a lot, I say vitiligo looks more likely since the color looks too natural for pain and his skin looks to plain for a scar.
Next thread better have a trailer
>>333456091
Kyo and Iori were hit the hardest by the transition imo. They both look like aliens. I kind of wish they retained some of their muscle at least. Everyone else looks fine.
Why does Another Duke look exactly the same as the Russian midboss except for the white lines on his eyes and the cigar
What's the meaning of this, SNK
>>333439968
>>333440164
>tfw no CvS3
>>333448036
benimaru is the only one that looks fine with the face
>>333457817
fucking kula the underage cock teasing slut.
when is someone going to fucking draw her getting fucked by a horse or dog? like come the fuck on its the current year and still no fucking bestiality porn of her yet! god damn some nerd somewhere better fucking get on that
>>333458909
Well, SFxT has SF4 models with Tekken. I wonder how SFV and KoFXIV would look together.
>>333458509
To be fair, if they wanted to design burn scars they probably wouldn't follow realistic guidelines. I agree that it looks like it could be vitiligo though.
>>333458909
Good. I don't want another game where Capcom makes all but a handful of the SNK characters play like shit.
>>333459006
maybe she's grown up now since she doesn't have foxy and diana with her anymore.
>>333458870
>Duke is also from Russia
Well, there we have it.
>>333446453
That's so '80s action movie.
I'f pick up Ryo just for that costume.
>>333449473
XII sprites suck.
They're not even high res.
>>333458909
Good. SNK deserves to shine alone.
>>333459086
>two capcom grooves have rolls even though capcom fighters never had rolling
that was some bullshit
>>333459086
But TvC and even SFxT had the other franchise's characters play really well.
>>333459383
>garou's resolution lower than fatal fury
that can't be rightcan it?
>>333459710
That's true, but those aren't CVS. I'd like to believe that a CVS3 would be better to the SNK characters since they have a new team but CVS1 and 2 turned me off.
>>333459541
Outside of very specific character exclusive rolls the only capcom figther I remember that had rolls for everybody was Jojo's bizarre adventure Heritage for the future
Goodbye thread.
>>333459006
Seek help nigga
I'm not even joking, literally seek help
I know where we are, but still
you look like you need help
t. anon
>>333459710
They jinxed the SNK characters out of beef and bad blood
Jealous cunts
>>333459541
Ken and Akuma actually had a retarded looking little gay roll in the alpha games
It was shit though, it's not how SNK rolls
>>333459818
That's why I'd hope for a CvS 3.
>>333453776
I miss having tickets to the gun show.
Here's hoping it sells well enough and they have some alt costumes down the line.
>>333460060
>it was shit
that roll was crazy strong. it was mostly for mixups and combos though, not like KOF rolls.
