I'm a pretty active kof player, I'm at all the northeast majors and would love to have a beta code because I want kof13 steam to be successful. Also I can stream it.

Hi i'd like to sign up for the beta key giveaway, I'm new to the DC forums but have used the site heavily in the year or so i've been playing 13 and it would be rad if you would pick me. I am competent enough to do HDs, run grabs and alternate guarding when I want but i'm still learning a lot about how to play the game at a high level. I came from 3rd Strike mostly so I have a lot of experience with different versions of games and different netcode implementations wrt fighting games.

I'm from London in the UK but I live in Dundee in Scotland at the moment, I think I would be a good choice because I know players with the beta both within short (< 100 miles) distance and further (london/france/morocco/US) to test with, I have an excellent PC and good connection and finally i'm a professional games programmer for a mobile company and have some experience in netcode development, which should lead to better targeted feedback.

More than any of that though I really want SE to succeed to help the scene grow as it's hard to evangelise for a game and then tell people that the only way they can play it is at sessions, I try to get as many people involved in my area as possible but it can be hard to convince people who can't make it regularly.

I'm a big SNK fan in general having played a lot of the games as best as I can. I know how to connect Takuma's Hien Shppu Kyaku/Zanretsu Ken combo and I recently managed to get a PAL PS2 copy of KOF 98UM after a long time searching. I would love to test this game as I feel it deserves a better netcode than what the console version got but either way I would still play it on Steam even though I owned it on Xbox previously.

My usual KOF XIII team is Billy, Yuri and both Ioris if possible. Sometimes I swap with Robert or Takuma.

I'm also well into fighting games. I like Soul Calibur, Street Fighter, KOF of course and even gave Skullgirls and Guilty Gear a try and found I liked them.

However due to my friend's fightstick dying and my xbox eating my copy of KoFXIII. We havn't  played it anymore sadly. However If im selected to be a beta tester I will do my best to provide feedback and continue to improve my skills.

Hello. I'm... Well. Long time player for any SNKP game, started back in 2000 with KOF 97, 98, 99, all the way to 03 and XI. However, for XIII, I was only able to play on friend's house few time. I'm glad to see more people joining to play this great game and very excited for the possibilities.

I have been searching player side way of improving play though setting, and were testing various of player because of strange connection issue between some players. Order to test it more precisely and get Data for it, I'm hoping to get KOF XIII Beta. I will admit my specs looks somewhat terrible. But I'm hoping to improve over the spec to make it playable.

Would love to get in on this :D I think my bandwidth is enough to test the netcode to its full extent.

I am not a new player, but I am new to the DreamCancel forums. I mostly lurked for a while until now.
I would be a good closed beta tester for SNKPlaymore, because I have a community of strong players from the northwest who are willing to sit with me and test the netcode. Instead of one person's input, you can have the input of many players on the same machine to see what they think about it.

KOF History:
Not new to fighting games, but with the lack of online I've only really been in training room in KOF13. I understand the basics of the game but haven't much match experience. I play a lot of other fighters online (Mainly AE2012 and VF5FS, also play SC5), so I'm used to subpar connections. I'm willing to put a lot of time into testing the beta's netcode, daily.

Hello. My name is Serafim. I am From Portugal.
So first of all i love your website , i like the podcast and kof videos that u put on (it saves time in searching) and thanks for being awesome.

Why i am the right choice? hmm, well i work with steam since 2008. I play kof since kof 97 , i can do hd combos , drive cancel , 1000 dmg combos , etc. Since i work with steam , i can basically help SNK with ports and testing the lag issues but for that i need beta :/

Since I'm Portugal is in the center of the the map (not rly but...) , i can test the all the places in the world ( France , spain , italy , asia , uk , etc). No portuguese got a beta key , so that's why i am here with more beta keys on various countries the more feedback snk gets.

Well now let's get to the specs.

I'm KOF veteran, play SNK games since fatal fury 1 in arcade and play KOF 94 until XIII
Playing KOF XIII competitively, attend some local tournaments
I also actively play online for other fighting games such as Super SF IV AE 2012, Tekken Tag Tournament, and Virtua Fighter 5 on PS3
I want to become beta tester because I really want this KOF XIII to success, it's very good game but lots of people don't play this because of the bad netcode
and I at least can provide detail results for South East Asia area

Thank you!

While I'm not an amazing KOF player I think I'd be a good beta tester since I have a technical background and I know what sorts of things to be testing for. I'm also in the Pacific Northwest which is relatively sparse in terms of KOF players who got into the beta (as far as I know).
