Hope that Under Night in Birth is released to PC.

Someone has to release a good fighter on Steam without GFWL already.

That's absolutely 100% TRUE!

I highly doubt it. It's only little more than a week and the characters are pretty easy to pick up and play. Much like KOF, you can pick up multiple characters and be good with them. This isn't Guilty Gear or Virtua Fighter where every character is like learning Quantum Physics.

Most of the people who come from lets say SF find KoF a bit challenging because of the commands, different jumps and shifting from 6 buttons to 4. There is a lot more to compare and say but what I am trying to get at is, it doesnt matter if the game is hard or easy as long as you enjoy it and Louis I dont think you should worry about the learning curve I personally dont know if the game is challenging or not but even if you start late eventually you'll get there. That's what happened to me in 3rd strike. As long as you enjoy it you'll get there eventually. Many people get discouraged because of the learning curve and it pisses me off. I am not saying your one of them btw.

Guys if you think Mr. KARATE is a problem wait tell you play against a good Takuma, one slip from you and your dead! If he gets a counter hit he, he gets you into an ex Zanretsuken then you can say farewell to your character. Still I dont see that he needs a nerf.

As I said, I play with my brother and friend only. My other family members, they like the game but they think it's hard. As hard as I tried to get them to play, it's just they dont want to invest time into it. Personally online play is Important for me because of the lack of players here.

To tell you the truth it's hard to choose but if I'll choose they would be, for the first category:

1.Ryuji Yamazaki
2.Saisyu Kusanagi
3.Orochi Yashiro
4.Yashiro
5.Lin

The second category:

1.Geese
2.Rugal
3.Krauser
4.Heavy D
5.Krizalid

I think if they will bring "those from the past" it wont be a UM it would be KoF XIV, thats obvious.

NO. to Mr.KARATE nerf.

I prefer giving all the other characters good options and moves like Mr. Karate and the game will be perfect.
he is so fun to play not like many of the simple characters in the game.

Exactly.

This!

Nerfs, is the Capcom's job...

Exactly.

The console version of XIII benefited enormously from K', Raiden, Liz and Kula nerfs. Also, nerfs can actually make a character MORE fun to play because you need to utilize more of their tools, rather than relying on an overpowered all-in-one move. Raiden is a great example of this.

While some minor Karate nerfs might make the game more balanced, I think the game is fine the way it is. (Put another way, Karate is arcade Liz/Kula level, not arcade K'/Raiden level.) I'm fine with SNK focusing their resources on the next KOF, or on another project.

Yeah exactly. Nerfing characters just makes the game worse unless the character was broken. Look at SSF4, some of the characters they nerfed got bad.

Thanks for the light guys. Never heard it was like that. Saw some videos though but well, you cant judge from what you see only I guess.

I'm sorry that I gave that vibe of feeling so down on it. I just wanted to get to know whats about the game and why all the hype about it. Hopefully some RPG players can get into fighting games now because of it.

Enjoy the game guys  .

What baccano said. And it has Akihiko who plays like Vanessa from KOF!

Hey Nilcam. Nice to see you around hope we can see more of you. THANKS!!! for this great forum again.

Man I dont know why all the fuss about P4?! I dont see it as a great fighting game; it's another BB which guilty gear it much better to tell you the truth.

Honestly why all the hype?! someone explain please!

speaking of P4...the horrid XBL play was patched in week 1...which brings me to why i came back to this thread. a good amount of people that i have convinced to try out kof insist that they love it and would play it if only the online was good. thats something we cant really resolve in this thread...or can we? where does the kof community go to be heard? is it too little too late to try and reach out and ask for it to be fixed for the sake of saving the evo hype while its still hype? so many people would main this game if only they could practice it with others more than once a week. petition...? barrage of emails...? twitter...? any ideas?

Your absolutely right here especially for us who are outside the US. The only reason which AE and Marvel 3 are top FGs here is because of their online; I cant express enough how much the online means to us here and to tell you the truth, as hard as I tried to push this game the community here just refused to grow because of the online. Thankfully I have 2 people I play with, thats it and believe me we have a lot of people who play fighting games here. BB's netcode was awesome, I know that they use skipping frames or whatever but it's so good that I can play against anyone no matter the distance; even if it was as good as AE I dont mind it, it was good enough. It's a damn shame that this game gets over shadowed by other games because of it's online and it's the best FG and Game out there. They really need to do something about it in order for it to grow here.

I agree with you that we need to see XIV or a dream match before anything else, and the netcode really needs to get fix... but something that I will love see is a tournament move: 16th or 32th players that will be nice.

One thing! They need to announce something before the high of XIII goes down, I will said before the end of the year.
They just need to said they are working on something and show some pictures.

You got it right bro! they definitely should do that.


EDIT: I am soooooo HYPED!!! for the Japanese tournament!!! ATLAST KoF is getting it's share!

Thanks for the heads up David! Guys if you read the post which is in mmcafe keep reading the post down under hopefully we'll see that Mai player they're talking about and lets hope it'd be big!


BTW heard that SBO this year sucked anyone can confirm that? I saw the 3rd strike tourny not much attendance to that, dont know about the others though.

Who wants KOF XIII Evolution?

I think SNK should focus on updating the console version of XIII with more moves and more characters for the next Evolution tournament and release the game on PSN and XBL a few months before.

I'd prefer if they would refrain from doing that. giving characters just one additional move can change how the whole character functions and easily break the balance of the game. It all seems well planned out as it is, and while i'd gladly see more moves etc in the next installment, it's not worth it to kill this game for it.

Definitely agree with this. Just add 10 new characters, if possible a second gauge for variety and invest on netcode. If they have trouble creating a good netcode they should not release XIV until it is good. From the other hand I'd like to see MI3 or NGBC 2 before XIV. XIII still has a long life.

I agree with this but I'd like to see XIV or a dream match before anything else. They should invest more in the netcode, heck they should revamp it and make it excellent world wide. They should give more attention to the digital market also, especially the PC. If they can bring the game digitally on PSN and XBLA then they can bring it on PC. They should bring their older games also on PSN not just XBLA; I'd like to see KoF2k2UM and 98UM on PSN.

My philosophy is, when you like a character stick to him/her even if "you" think he's bad as long as he's not broken (too weak or too strong).

Choysauce: please dont drop Leona we need more Leonas out there :P and shes not weak bru.
