KOF XIII 7th General Thread: Evo 2012 countdown edition

[Tyrant292]

Thanks SolidShark.

Guys I have a question, this may not be important for some people but here goes; is there any chance that KoF XIII will come to the PC as a digital download e.g. steam? Well I think it would do good for the game and profit SNK and I dont think it would cost them much.

Doubt it'll come to PC at all, legally. There is a petition for it though: http://petitionbureau.org/kofxiiipc

Man, thats a bummer really. We as a community and SNK as a company could really profit from that, as I said I dont think it'll cost them much; SF4 did good on PC, because of that they brought SFxT on PC too but their mistake was they used games for windows live.

Interesting. Eventhubs community has their own tier list for XIII: http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2012/apr/29/eventhubs-community-tiers-poll-king-fighters-13/#comments

And if you're going to be in Japan this weekend, they've got a Climax tournament (not sure if this was mentioned elsewhere): http://orochinagi.com/2012/04/kof-xiii-climax-tournament-shinjuku-carnival

SNK knows it will just get pirated to hell and back.

I guess valve shouldn't have released portal 2 on PC then.

SF4 got pirated but even so it did sell and capcom are still releasing their fighting games on PC.

Read the petition statement, you'll see that SSF4 AE is the 4th most played game of games for windows live

Pretty sure that's the point he was making.

And Xxenace, that doesn't stop you from playing with them in all your other games.

I got a question anyone knows how to fight against Benimaru? I lost to Benimaru during Tournament way to many times. I'm asking how to play against him and any weaknesses I should look out for.

Depends on who you're using of course. I haven't played that many Beni's because of a lack of decent players online  but these are the big things that piss me off and give me trouble:

Beni's st.D. It's an amazingly good poke and he's totally safe after doing it and it's going to beat a lot of your pokes. It reminds me a lot of Chun Li's st.HP in 3S, it's a really broken and stupidly good poke. I discovered that Billy's cr.A beats it but it's just a matter of figuring out what you can do to beat that specific move if you're dealing with a Beni player who wants to play footsies like that.

Another problem with Beni is his amazing air game. He's got a great crossup, air fireballs, drills, etc. What I do is if I see him jump at me I tend to neutral jump and counter with whatever he does or use a really good AA like Billy's EX Upkicks. If Beni knocks you down and does an air EX Fireball you could just block it, if he tries to hit you you can do an EX wakeup that goes through the fireball, or I think you can AB Roll out.

Is it possible we can rename this topic to Evolution Edition now that MLG has come and gone?

Also, I know Evo announced 30 countries will be representing it this year and Digi brought up a good point in another forum, that KoF13 is one of the reasons why so many countries are coming out this year. I can't wait to see the level of play for this game at Evo.
