The King of Fighters XIII/KOF-i News Thread

[T.Bogard]

I know all of this but you know
i really think they spent all these tiem for nothing...
You can see Kof XII failure...i still support SnkP and i dont want them to close their
company but i think they should try to make a different system. I dont really think that copying Sf ex moves system will be a good idea.Sometimes i really think they are afraid of risking a little bit more and i really prefer to wait for more 5 years
for a really good kof than another failure such as XII.Even kof sky stage looks more exciting than kof XIII.I feel said saying something like this because i love snk games
but this is how i really feel

ok sebuneco, stop bitching or I'll be moderating you.

*EDIT Vecta: Parcero, that's not the attitude of a CX Staff. Warning to you too.

Blah blah blah

Ok you said your piece and we get it. You dont like what they are doing now and prob wont like what they will do anytime soon. You talk about "take risk" yet what they did with XII was one of the biggest so far and they are surviving that as we speak. We dont need negativity in these threads (nor fanboyism either) and as i said, you said what you though so there is no need to go on with it. There is no discussion in your posts at all.....

Leave it at that....

Ex moves copyed from SFIII, control+C Control+V from KOF XII

Anything wrong with having the same things as other games? If it's good, it's good, as simple as that, and I believe adding EX moves to any fighting game is a good thing because it adds more depth and strategy to a single move. You might as well say KOF XIII copied other things too such as dashing, jumping, having supers, etc.

raiden and mature in the game ( wtf are they thinking..?),iori with that screwed move
(qcb+ A or C ... where is the good and old school qcb+A or C 3x ?)

That's because you have yet to realize WHY they are in the game. As for Iori, who wants the same moves for over 10 years? Having the same outfit and barely any change in his attacks for over 10 years was bad enough already. He also lost his powers, a good enough reason to start changing him.

Only few chars,i really would like to see oswald again and other cool chars that didnt appear on the previous game.

Why have Oswald in the game? It's the same judgment you gave for Raiden and Mature. In fact, since Mature is in the game, she will obviously play a MUCH larger role than some random human such as Oswald. Few chars? I think you're being a bit too spoiled from all the character hoarding that the old generation KOFs (94-XI) have been doing. Give this new generation KOF that many years and you'll be seeing the amount of characters you're satisfied with.

Just to finish : I really think they made something in a hurry to try to compete with
SSFIV , but again, Snk will lose the fight.Maybe now the company will close and we will only remember of its good and old titles that made our days happy...  

Even if KOF XIII loses to SSFIV, it's surely not the reasons you have mentioned.

Yeah sure...but of course nothing is definitive...maybe this game can chance my point of view.let's wait and see
About something that i wanna see about it are some advanced combos,we couldnt see anything like that until now.Im curious about the possibilities of new combos like kof XII
i hate it but Iori's combo is so beautiful...the only thing that i ask them to change about him is his qcb+ P and put again the old version

Definitely this is not a good reason since he doesnt use flames to make this move...
this move was efficient,so no necessity of taking it from him. and some chars still have moves that they used since kof 94...

Not happening....

[Seubuneco]

Not happening....

I know,i have only to accept it =p

In fact ,you are correct.but for sure, now the story will be a mess,since they putted mature on it...i wanna see how they are going to explain her presence in the game

[T.Bogard]

X-cancel comes from where? document your self : The first game who use special cancel was REAL BOUT FATAL FURY DOMINATED MIND (Final Impact Move) and it was several years ago, about 1997... that CAPCOM take this concept on SFIII, then i should consider this a copycat of the technique and blame capcom for that? i don't think so...

bla bla bla...

[Mad Man from Hell]

So it's Kinda Conformed That Botan , Shroom and the tall guy are new Fighters



and I wonder if Takuma is Shirtless in this one ?

[Persona]

Definitely this is not a good reason since he doesnt use flames to make this move...

As much as I would like to counter this and for the fact that off the top of my head I cannot think of any other special that Iori uses that didn't have flames in them, you bring a reasonable point.

Yes, Botan team almost 100% confirmed as a normal team in my opinion

Thanks ^^.
the change that i really liked was his new grab...kinnda more cruel and kickass,beautiful to see in a match...

[hybridial]

So three all new characters? Nice, I was hoping for something new characters wise.

[OrochiLeonaUK]

There isn't any point in me adding another voice to the chorus, but I'm very much looking forward to seeing how this game works out and I'm stoked that people seem more positive toward it than they did last time.

Lots of great video and pictures coming in, thanks for the links and updates all y'all.

If this confirme that this is the Botan, Shroom, Rimleo team then we could have the last unreveled member of TFTP as mid Boss or even final boss.
(i think that the one calling him "our boss" in the ending of kof2k3 was Ash)

[Venom Yagami]

I really love how Mai looks in the game.....his boobs looks great!!!!!.....

I really don't think this means anything.
