Did you pre-order it?
>>339252907
I never preorder anything
I'll pre-order the pc version.
Is her ass as big as her head?
>>339252907
I'll wait for the PC version
i will when i get the chance, just seeing another KoF game is enough to put a smile on my face
>>339255442
>>339255538
Never ever
>>339252907
sports team as dlc when ?

Why would you play a fighting game on pc?
>>339258459
>paying for online
>>339258623
Console war memes aside fighting games on pc are notorious for dying fast
>>339258623
Nice le meme arrow but it doesn't answer the question.
>>339258885
I don't have a console and I'm not about to buy one for a game
also, I suck at using controllers
>>339259323
Fighting games may honestly not be for you then unless you can play SFV or Melty if thats even still alive
>>339259417
>>339258885
Or Killer Instinct but thats Windows 10
I've never bothered with pre-ordering games, also I don't even have a PS4. All this talk about a PS4.5 is making me wary of getting one, though I'd like to get one in time for Tekken 7 atleast (whenever that's coming out) and I would like to try out KOF14 too
>>339252907
Will be preordering today. I like what we've seen from the 36 character build so far.
Anyone have the webm of Yuri's climax and win screen? It's adorable as fuck.
>>339258729
That's a literal meme. If anything they live more.
> SFV dead or arrival.
> KOF XIV the new hotness.
>>339252907
wiat, i thought it was free...
>>339261245
>sky blue
>coco
Wait, how do you know the name of the songs of each stage?
DLC when ?
>>339256271
Whenever he stops spinning.
>>339262751
What are you talking about most fighting games on pc barely have 200 active players sans SFV and MKX and let's be honest the MKX port is trash
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.
b-burning on the inside...
fucking... when?
SNK please, I ran out of hype
>>339252907
Pre-ordering is cancer.
>>339264279
Maybe with the soundtrack that comes with the special edition of the game.
>>339263549
i want that jacket
>>339258885
I does though.
I want Yuri to sit on my faaaace
>>339255538
Heidern's boss as fuck really and is best Ikari. It's a shame he's not really around as a playable character all that often.
>>339252907
I don't buy shitty waifubait trash, I actually have some respect for my masculinity.
>>339264940
>I actually have some respect for my masculinity.
How can you respect something that doesn't exist?
>>339264940
>I actually have some respect for my masculinity.
Where the hell do you think you are?
>>339252907
Not yet.
>>339252907
her ass and hips are too big
>>339265146
My own personal hell where people are perfectly willing to shell out fifty plus dollars or their foreign equivalent for shitty, half baked waifugames with no content or replay value.
>>339264940
What games does an anon that respects his masculinity buy?
>>339265201
Yes. and?
>>339265247
>no content or replay value
you ARE aware this is a fighting game with 50 characters, yes?
>>339265247
Oh, so you are just baiting-
>>339265405
Don't bother, he is a shitty troll.
>>339265405
Women have no place in fighting games, they are literally only added to force either gender equality or waifus, both of which are disgusting, vile, and destroys fanbases
i wish i could preorder it, Yuri is my waifu.
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.
>>339252907
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. Getting a 120 page art book and three CD's with 60 songs for just $20 more? Sign me the fuck up.
>>339265952
144 page art book.
>>339262980
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.
>>339265540
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.
>>339266105
>So you would rather have fighting games with nothing but men?
It would be more honest
It would be more true to life and not foul feminist inclusionist propaganda.
>>339265516
>That ass pat
Your move, Capcom.
>>339266105
By that description he should just play UFC.
>>339252907
Wow I don't even play SFV but if I had to choose between these 2 games, no way in hell would I choose this ugly-ass King of fighters from what I've seem of both games
>>339266105

SNK does it again. Don't even care if the art book is just the in-game gallery. I need my rare Shinki-dinkies in physical form.
>>339266278
this is the hard position KoF14 is in right now. SFV got burned because LOL NO SINGLE PLAYER, but that same audience will scorn KoF because LOL PS2 GRAPHIX
>>339266365
What's wrong, did I trigger you?
>>339266278
>muh graphics
great argument.
SFV sucks, everyone knows it. The only thing they focused on was making slutty costumes for waifu fags, it falls short in every other way.
>>339266624
Nope.
>>339266624
The only person who sounds triggered is this anon >>339265540 to be honest, who seems to be looking for a UFC fighter but doesn't realise it
>>339266617
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.
KoF = grandma's fresh home made biscuits
SFV = Mcdonalds prefrozen, 40 minute old room temp biscuits
I miss old XIV threads where we wouldn't talk about strret fighter.
>>339266854
Sadly, modern gaming "journalists" care more about grafix than gameplay these days.
No PC, no buy.
Who else is hyped for the AoF team trailer?
>>339267107
same but stuff like this always happens you can't even watch a stream without someone complaining about graphics or some thing else
>>339267107
That never happened.
>>339267140
Depends. Of course the mediocre graphics will be seen as detrimental, but it doesn't need to be deal breaker when rest of the package is golden.
>>339267207
SNK always makes ports out the wazoo
>>339267140
no modern game journalist only care about graphics when it comes to fighting games because they wont be able to talk about anything else due to not being able to play them
No matter how good the gameplay is (and it's going to be amazing) there is no excuse for releasing a game in this day and age with such bad visuals
>>339267209
Not anymore. We have video of Yuri already, so hype is gone.
>>339266617
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.
>>339267410
Let me rephrase that then. Who's hyped for the South America trailer?
>>339267207
No PC, no pirate.
>>339267275
Yes it did, back in the teaser trailer days.
>>339267470
The Brazlian team?
I am curious about Zarina.
>>339267650
I want to see people using Nelson right.
>>339267650
I'm curious about her tucan.
>>339267480
the problem is: this thread doesn't really have a strong theme.
Nobody is talking about Joe/Terry reveal or such things. Its just a thread with a loose theme, which leads to people easily being drawn into flame wars.
i really want to see kensou and meitenkun already
>>339265516
Why is she so autistic bros?
>>339267730
You're right, guess I should wait until wednesday.
>>339267407
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.
>>339265776
>hell of a lot better than most of what's been in the series since 2003 or so
>hating on XI's soundtrack
But why, senpai?
>>339252907
> Buying ps4
> Preordering anything ever
Filthy scrubs infesting /v/
>>339268209
Fucking normies right?
Has anyone watched any of the combobreaker matches, is there any good material from there?
>>339252907
>those 3D models
>>339267887
are you an idiot?
>>339267887
Because she's Sakura on crack:
>Sakura trains to be like Ryu
>Could be stronger than Ryu if she trains
>Yuri doesn't train because she's already mastered Kyokugenryu
>Fucks around with the family recipe for martial arts because she's the top dog outside of Takuma.
>>339263609
Even if they were dying faster on PC there's a reason crossplay exists.
>>339267650
I want to see what does her bottom body looks like.
Because the current images don't show it.
Then I can work on my Zarina agenda
I hope we get a long trailer at E3 with BURNING ON THE INSIDE full song
>>339252907
will her top still get ripped off after a special KO? I know King's has already been confirmed.
>>339268630
cross play only exist for 2 games and i dont really see multiple companies using it outside of big ones like capcom or it has someone step in for something like microsoft did for killer instinct
>>339268807
Yes.
>>339268751
I hope the full song doesn't dissapoint.

>With all my heart Uppercut!
I take it that this translator is unfamiliar with the series
>>339268891
Cool. He just need some more hits.
>>339268590
Dan, Yuri, and Oyaji/Go vs. Ryo, Ryu, and Mr. Karate would settle the score once and for all.
>>339265540
Fucking fedora
>>339268891
I'm really glad SNK is taking advantage of the fact that they're using 3D now, but goddamn this and Mature's DM's look weird as hell. Problem here with Ralf's is the amount of time spent on watching the opponent rebound before that final hit.
>>339268891
Did she died?
>>339269153
I hope you don't mean Dan's dead dad when you say Oyaji considering Robert and Buttz are still alive.
>>339258459
Why would you not play a fighting game on PC?
I won't play on consoles until I can use a keyboard to play.

>>339261245
That training stage looks boring.
What the hell happened to training Dojo stage?
>>339258459
Better graphix as always
I hope you're aware that you can use a controller on the PC for the past few decades
>>339266262
Anon...
>>339269798
every fighting game has to have SF4-style training stages now for some reason
>>339270214
Stalemate.
Post Shinkiros
>>339270219
disgusting
>>339266939
Did you even play SF5? Because it's fucking good. It's probably my favorite SF game together with 3rd Strike.
Capcom was a dumbfuck who wouldn't actually put a goddamn arcade mode before release, and now there's no fixing the shit storm that ensued.
>>339270219
Capcom just got rid of theirs. It's like SNK fishing for spoiled breadcrumbs.
>>339268590
>she's the top dog outside of Takuma
Let's not go too far with the headcanons, anon.
>>339270886
>Capcom just got rid of theirs.
It's still there in SF5 is it not?
>>339270219
I think the lines help professional players work on something something related to getting gud.
>preordering 3D SNK game
>>339271225
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.
>>339271491
*Over time, I mean.
>>339270975
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.
>>339271695
Didn't she get taught a watered down version because takuma was initially against her learning it or somethimg?
>>339271695
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.
>>339271878
this
unless KOF differs from this point, that's how it was in AOF
>>339268891
Sweet
>>339265516
>short hair
I'm okay with that
>still using her shitty XIII stance and not her standard KoF one
Unforgivable
>>339268208
Most of it is just bland and unremarkable. The best song is Silber/Jyazu's.
>>339271895
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
>>339264817
Me too.
>>339274902
I wonder how strong she would be if she had been taught proper Kyokugen.
>>339275797
Pretty strong most likely but she found a thing that works for her, and shed still be playing catchup to ryo and robert who have been training for years.
XIV on teamsp00ky right now, expect shit commentary
Twitch tv teamsp00ky
>>339268891
Have you ever punched someone so hard the stadium fucking exploded?
>>339276864
Little late there.
Also the gameplay was pretty shit too. At least I felt that the level of play in Stunfest was higher.
>>339264698
I always wished I was fresh like Kyo
>>339267468
The FGC is cancer
Nobody gives a shit about them
>>339265082
BANANA SLAMMED
>>339274902
Pretty much like Sakura's original lore which involved Shadaloo people stalking her and determining how she was a prodigy on her own for learning how to throw hadokens and shit without training at all
Too bad all that went to shit when capcom decided not to update the character style or looks ever again
If they fuck up Geese Ni Katakori then I'm roll cancelling my preorder
>>339252907
Cool PS1 game brah. Go back to playing Overwatch.
>>339277282
>Nobody gives a shit about them
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 won't be so dramatic as to spell gloom and doom for all fighting games but SF at least is already dead.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZCI209opkE
here's my sunday best!
I'm scared it won't be good and SNK will die again. I don't want them dead.
>>339269995
>graphics
Oh cool now you can see yourself be bad and lag against poorfag brazilian players in HD
>>339277584
>(SECRETO)
That's a KoF fan alright
>>339277556
Only Capcom gives a shit about them, look how Sakurai despises them
>>339277789
Fair enough. It is just mainly Capcom but their brand encompasses so much about fighting games that it bears mentioning.
>>339277896
SFxT bombed and SFV is on life support, I say their next big failure will probably kill all expectations Capcom has about milking the FGC
>>339273658
>bland and unremarkable
Sir, we didn't listen to the same XI ost then.
>>339277556
>Capcom gave so much of a shit that they let them ruin SFV.
lol Capcom ruined SFV for themselves. Comp players would have bought it even if it was just a reskinned SFxT on a disc
>>339265516
Yuri is CUTE!
>>339268398
Nope because all they do is play shotos all day so it's boring as fuck
>still a month away from the Official Invitation team trailer
>>339270835
Not him, but no way is SF5 as good as 3rd Strike and 3s is not even my favorite.
>Based ST
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
>>339266385
Not always effective.
>>339279758
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.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKgjOCuW_MU
>>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 funand kinda overpowering with meterto 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.
>>339282281
Good shit.
>>339278516
2000 had the best roster
95 was also fun
Does FE have any kind of playerbase on Steam? I'd love to try it when I get my new stick.
>tfw PS3 Round 1 TE doesn't work on laptop and nothing can be done because integrated motherboard
I guess I could get a new PCB for the stick itself but I have no experience modding and those cost as much as a cheap Hori anyway
>>339283801
>Best roster
>No team USA for Brain Battler aerial shit
>No Vice & Mature
>No Yamazaki and Billy

>That feel when pre-ordered the Special Edition
I think the extras are worth the price.
>>339284313
>the debut of lin and hinako, the playable debut of seth, the third best athena design, a buttload of striker cameos
its pretty up there roster wise, only the dream matches and maybe xi come close (and xi roster wasnt that good i just like leftfield additions like jyazu)
>>339285325
>Lin, Seth
>Good characters
Don't do this to yourself
>>339270214
disgusting. dont know how you can guys can be attracted to such a huge ass.
>>339282450
Iori was already a living nightmare. He's by far and away the single best character in OG 98.
>>339283941
>Does FE have any kind of playerbase on Steam?
not really
the netcode is kind of ass
you can get matches in KOF13 on Steam fairly regularly, but you'll need to actively go and friend people if you want to play the UMs
>>339285574
dunno about Lin, but Seth is cool as fuck
>>339285325
>short hair Athena
>good
pls
>>339285574
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.
>>339286281
I'm bummed the only one to return is Ramon, the worst one by far. His moveset was a clusterfuck of shit
>>339283142
Basically listen to Casiopeia, T-Square (and its variant names) and Yellow Magic Orchestra if you want the basis of all Jap vidya music from the '80s (YMO) and '90s (Casiopeia and T-Square).
>>339284813
>that one kid who bodyga'd to school
>>339286604
I've played a good Ramon before. He's loads of fun.
>>339284813
I want that pre-order.
>>339286692
>>339286604
He's better than Vanessa is in 02UM, isn't he?
>>339287518
It's easy to be better than Vanessa in 02UM since they nerfed her to the ground, I hear.
>>339278554
The gameplay is still slow as fuck

That photo is probably out of date
>>339288973
Also am I the only mad one that they didn't get her to voice Nakoruru for KoF14?
Instead they got somebody else...I think it's the one from Tenka which sucks
>SNK used to be on the bleeding edge of aesthetics and beauty in games design
>2016 and this subpar shit is being praised

>>339280603
Man it must suck dick to be him in that regard. Kinda feel bad for the guy.
>>339289305
at least she still voice's king right?
>>339289359
Nobody's praising the graphics this time around.
We'd all much rather have sprites, but
>money
>>339289450
Not sure
>>339289305
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.
>>339289359
>2016 and this subpar shit is being praised
No? The transition away from sprites fucking sucks, you'd have to be an idiot to not see why they did that though.
>>339289621
i know kyo's old actor said that the was thinking that he wouldn't be able to pull it off anymorei remember reading something a long time ago that not being able to voice kyo was one of his biggest fears
>>339289559
I don't really mind the 3D approach even though I have my pixel bias. Beauty isn't limited to one style or one approach.
I just wish they didn't phone it in, make a fucking effort and start exploring how to make some interesting 3D stages.
I mean Capcom VS SNK 2 had 3D stages and they still had a pretty interesting design
>>339289359

It's been 6 years.
To me he sounds like the same guy. And I know this doesn't mean much on an anonymous image board, but I'm pretty good at picking out voice actors usually.
But if it turns out not to be, I'm disappointed too.

>>339289872
>I just wish they didn't phone it in, make a fucking effort and start exploring how to make some interesting 3D stages.
Whoa buddy, let's not make ridiculous claims here. Maybe you don't like the XIV stages, but I fucking love them. They are dripping in classic SNK design sensibilities, Derelict Church could have been a Garou stage, Neo Esaka and Navajo Land are amazing throwbacks to classic stages (although I would like if Neo Esaka had spectators in the background), Iguazu Falls look beautiful as fuck, Geese's tower is super cinematic looking and has AMAZING lighting effects going on with the rain and the lightning and the overall darker look, I love the stages.
>I mean Capcom VS SNK 2 had 3D stages and they still had a pretty interesting design
This too. I mean if you like them alright that's fine, but I don't care for any of these stages. I think the mix between low res 2D sprites and high res 3D backgrounds looks really stupid, all of the stages are really simple and barren, and none of them are particularly cool or interesting to me. This is something I have a problem with in all of Capcom's early 3D backgrounds of the time like with MvC2 as well. They don't seem to fit the game at all, they're just there. Like why the hell would people be fighting in the middle of the desert with dune buggies are driving all over the place? It doesn't seem appropriate, it seems like Capcom was like HEY WE CAN DO 3D LET'S DO RANDOM VIDEO GAME SHIT NOW. Not a fan.
>>339290049
Fuck you, CVS2 Ryu was the best. Everything sounded properly enunciated, meaty and raw
And don't even get me started on fucking Evil Ryu, holy shit
Just found out it's a ps4 exclusive, what the fuckkk
>>339291465
It's not the same guy. IIRC it was mentioned in previous threads that SNK never even tried to contact him
>>339293838
What the fuck. That's... heartbreaking.
>>339292638
While we're on the topic of XIV stages, was the Masquerade stage shown off in anything but screenshots?
>go on snk wiki out of curiosity
>get to ralf
>he's rowdy and angry to cover up the fact that he witnessed a lot of fucked up shit during war and drinks away his sorrows
>>339292638
Impressive how they managed to create that stage with 7 polygons total
>>339289359
The designs of stages and characters is still great, the animation are still full of character and style.
In the ways it matters to me, the game looks pretty good.
>>339294157
I'm pretty sure it's in trailers, don't know if it has been in a playable build yet.
>>339294230
Maybe he was captured by the Mars People at some point, like how it happened with Marco in MS3.
>>339294157
It has been shown in trailers with Kukri and Sylvie.
>>339294230
Man, poor guy.
>>339290226
Honestly I wouldn't want the animation to be too smooth(because of gameplay reasons aka animation lag) I just would like handpainted backgrounds with hand-drawn characters
>>339290226
>>339290376
Also
>Japs
>Animation Masters
Puhleeeeeze
Surely you fucking jest
These fuckers and their budget cuts
But animating for a game is much easier(and cost effective) than it is for a show...tho once again if the animation is too smooth the gameplay will feel slow as shit like Street Fighter 3
>>339295878
Of course most TV Shows have shit animation except on some very particular scenes
However there are lot's of films with excellent fucking animation

but I never told that to anyone in real life

>>339294230

That shit can't compare with the West's best stuff
Therefore Japan is far from the "Animation Masters"
>>339296732It's okayas far as entry-level rap-rock goes anyway.It's one of the better songs in their 1st albumwhich doesn't say much.What is worse though is all those wannabe LP rip-off that came out afterwards, amping up the cheese to 11, from something that was already cheesy enough.In the end though, it will always just sounds like an inferior Freak on a Leash.

I don't get the complaints that 98UM fucked with the balance as OG 98 was super unbalanced anyways, so it's just same shit, but different.
>>339297353
yeah, sure
and I'm queen of England
>>339297828
Don't forget that women die giving birth to Yagami children too.
To be honest him taking his flames back after losing them sort of throws a wrench in all of that. I still don't really get why he did that but for him actually being an edgelord (whereas up to that point it was debatable)
>>339298176
I just watched his team's ending again, if he had rejected the flames then his entire clan's history would be erased or something. I didn't think Iori cared about that, but idk. Either way he's probably too far gone to be saved at this point, so it doesn't surprise me that he chose the flames and kept the curse.
>>339298681
Not history, but the curse would have been gone or something like that.
>>339298681
He became an Orochi addict, poor guy.
>tfw there will never be a storyline with Iori as a good guy where he's a cool saxophone player who joins KOF to promote his music and spread good vibes everywhere
>>339296768
>Macross
Thats cheating and you know it
>>339298802
In that case, I assume that Iori's orochi blood and shit makes him prioritize being able to kill Kyo over anything else.

What are the difference between 98 and 02UM between the roster and the movesets? Looks like players jump more and combos are longer (besides BC mode).
>"You can't touch this cuck"
>>339306312
The system is different in many ways. If you want the specific intricate details you want to read the wiki articles on Dreamcancel and SRK.
>>339301889
>Nameless in another kof never
>Nameless with K9999 skin never
>>339306312
Not sure on the specifics, bit 02UM is your best bet if you want to be able to jump right into XIV easier.
>>339271695
She learned Kyokugenryuu at a usable level in a year (between AoF1 and AoF2, and that gets referenced in her XIII dialog with (NESTS) Kyo), but one just have to compare her animations to the Kyokugenryuu men's to see they feel a lot less firm, for lack of a better word - so she makes up for it with her own twists, which she keeps replacing every few games.
what makes kasumi so good in 02um
>>339289872
no one is phoning anything in. you don't just go from making primarily 2d based games to 1080p 3d games without some growing pains.
despite all that, the gameplay still feels like kof.
>>339308435
good buttons
high damage
safe shit
tools for everything
pretty much the same reasons iori is good in 98
>>339308435
Everything
>>339304003
Tierwhores take out all the fun in spectating.
>>339308680
I don't like her aerial normals as much as Iori, granted she doesn't need to jump much since all her play is on the ground, her only useful aerial shit is delayed CD and D for jump ins, plus she can't start from lows easily like iori into huge ass combos so that's a plus

When you're playing for money why would you not pick strong characters. Even then I have to disagree, the high tier characters are usually the ones that have the hypest craziest shit to watch, like Nameless max mode combos into OTG drill.
>>339308962
I don't get the "huge 100% combo == hype" -thing.
You can get combo videos off youtube and stuff in those is way more technically impressive than average match combos.
Meanwhile what gets me excited is playing neutral, and situation where both players have multiple options of what they can do, as then I'm constantly on the edge "what will each of the players do, who will go in and with what."
Stuff like that.
THANK YOU BASED CLARK
CLARK STOPPING THE WAIFU MENANCE
>>339308962
But there is nothing more hype in kof like watching Clark own someone's soul.
>>339309449
It's not so much the fact that the combo is long as much as it just looks cool. Have you seen Nameless's max mode shit? He's flying all over the place and then ends by picking you up off the ground. OTGs exist in KOF sure but they aren't a hugely common par tof every characte'rs moveset.
Also the top tier characters tend to have good tools in neutral too especially 98 Iori and Daimon, so that makes for exciting moments.
The cases where I enjoy watching low tiers is when they are backed by someone very skilled that makes them work and reach heights they normally don't, or wins horrible matchups with them.

Not impressed.
Oh, also, I'm not the anon wishing for low tier characters, I totally accept that people play to win and pick high tier characters that's what it takes.
I just expressed my opinion about what's hype in spectating a match.
>Nobody uses Kasumi's counters

what you just said isn't really mutually exclusive to what >>339308962 is saying though

>>339270835
The game is INCREDIBLY shallow. The entire game is just throw mixups with one viable playstyle. Even if you ignore the barely functional servers, no content, several barely functional characters, shit graphics, inbuilt input delay AND the fact that there's no players. The game is shit.

>>339320620
It's hard to tell anymore with how many people on /v/ shit up threads by calling games bad because they don't have story mode or a certain character.
I don't think XIV will be like SFV, KOF and SF are so different fundamentally that I can't see this being another SFV case.
>>339320461
The pose is hot but the angle ruins it, I hope that someday they make this kind of pose again.
>>339320059
Nearly every top level player who had a chance to play it has said it is very fun. And this game doesn't look like it has sacrificed much if at all mechanically coming from KOFXIV. You still get an HD-style activation autodash, a stupid shit damage Persona autocombo that looks like a chain you can't normally do manually for some reason, Neomax renamed to Climaxes, EX moves don't take standard meter but just deplete from the activation meter and can only be used in MAX mode...
I think the only thing you MIGHT complain about is alternate guard being gone (but actually good riddance, that was annoying) and backturn being gone on crossups.
But honestly, lots of KOF players were actually sick of HD combos so you get something a little less but similar, as it'd be like a mix between MAX mode combos from 2k2 and HD from XIII. A lot shorter than HD combos.
And you can cancel certain things to the next level move, like special -> DM -> Climax.
The standard KOF players are generally saying it feels like a real KOF again, whereas they had issues about saying that with KOFXIII because it was more like a combo game.

Despite all the bonkers broken bullshit, I love 2000 and XI. Especially XI because that was almost the closest I got gud to getting gud. And it had a really strong version of K' and Shingo too.
I also love 97 a lot. Partly because I got very hype seeing a tournament match of it on Cable TV (via a Chinese channel).
>>339322913
The publishers are VERY GOOD at negotiating.
>>339322597
Capcom hires a lot fresh talent so they don't have an expensive payroll and contracts things off to low bidders
The only expensive people on their payroll are probably marketers with MBAs or some shit
I mean they hired ComboFiend to help codesign the mechanics for the game
Ono doesn't really know anything about game design, he's just a producer ie he lets executives spit on him and he goes out there with a smile trying to talk high of a product he helped convince the Capcom board of execs (and Sony) to budget and he can't even have any control over the fucking design and probably thank god, I wonder if the SFxT gems shit was his idea
>>339322971
Well, it seems Atlus USA has done something good for once.
>>339322828
Honestly, KOF is more visually appealing. It doesn't have a lot of post-processing garbage and the models/textures are really improved in the 36-character build compared to earlier footage. They also have good material simulation, Beni's leather pants come to mind right away.
Why don't people like this one over the previous 2 games?
>>339323004
Ono is a sound guy, that's all he did before somehow becoming producer for the SF series

I can understand that. KOF14 might look a generation behind, but I think I prefer a style I like a generation behind than a current generation update of a style I wasn't much of a fan of
Like SF5 isn't SF4 bad, but at best it's a minor improvement over the same style

I know, I mean he is probably a decent programmermost likely not even anywhere near the skill level Iwata wasfor at least knowing how to do system level stuff that he needed to do for that kind of work, but he definitely hasn't a single clue about design and honestly I just feel sorry for the fact that he's a fucking doormat to his bosses and he has to pretend something is better than it really is
And he has to deal with idiot directors and designers who oftentimes have stupid concepts and he invariably nods and goes YESU THAT SOUNDU PLETTY GOODU TSU ME NOT THAT I HAVE A SAYU ORU ANYTHINGU
I mean SNK has rehired people they lost before and to want to go back to work for SNK? They must really have a strong passion for the things SNK does or owns
Capcom on the other hand, it's like they simply hired people who were looking for a job LIKE THE ATTITUDE OF A STANDARD AMERICAN JUST WANTING MONEY AND NOT CARING ABOUT THEIR JOB, they don't have that strong bond that SNK employees do to SNK's franchises, and I'm sure a lot of them get paid even less than a Capcom employee
You might not see it aesthetically, but overall you can see the love and passion behind KOFXIV

Character Select artwork(by Nona I think) were considered bad to many along with the music. Gameplay makes strikers broken as fuck since they don't have much of a restriction than previous games. Not to mention a few things that come to mind infinites, glitches, and Igniz being difficult as fuck. As much as I like playing 2001, I can at least admit it was a terrible KoF game.

You mean decent damage.
>retarded throws
Oh look, throws that are actually good.
>horrendous balance
Every game has balance issues. Fortunately, damage output helps alleviates them. Though the thing is, it's also counterpick-heavy. You either like that or hate it. I don't mind it.
You see, I usually play old school FGs so shit like that is the usual for me. Very far from the watered down crap of post-Ono SF.

Not him, but as a KOF and SF fan, where's the problem?
>>339324358
Not that random. The window is pretty small. I mean, you do get dizzied quickly already and damage is already high. What's the difference?
>>339323228
2001 is easily and widely received as the worst KOF ever made
>>339268891
>dat scream during KO
>>339321057
The problem with KoF14 from what I played is that MAX is going to be too strong.
The game gives meter basically for free and you can covert it from any random hit. Punishing will be totally free and there's no reason not to just do a poke and activate because even if they block it's safe and if it hits you get 50%+ for a super easy EX move>EX move>Normal Move>Super cancel combo.
It will make the game quite brainless because everyone will just go 'oh that's unsafe' and hit H to max, or even worse just poke with far normals and hit MAX every time to either convert or get free pressure for a bar
>>339324671
Worse than 12? Or is 12 just dark history that people forget about.
>>339324898
12 was simply incomplete. It was still a functional fighter.
2001 was just a mess.
>>339324846
It's still a work in progress game, so who knows, they might tweak the MAX stuff, or at least the rate you get meter. I imagine the latter would be somewhat easier to scale, like you could increase the amount of meter required to reach one stock (the HUD displays a percentage of what's filled, afterall, so it's not hard to code).
The only problem I might have is that Iori still is too fucking strong with high damage compared to everyone else. It really IS classic KOF.
>>339324846
Maybe for your last character. Max mode's duration is different depending on which character you're on.
