Shen Woo / The Pros and Cons of Shen Woooooo...

« on: April 09, 2012, 10:57:34 PM »

This thread is to share your opinion on Shen's general gameplay advantages and disadvantages, which may be added to his wiki page here: http://dreamcancel.com/wiki/index.php?title=Shen_Woo_%28XIII%29

Ok, I will start:

Pros:

* High damage output

* High comeback probability factor, best anchor in the game

* Can spend little meter towards a high damage combo

* Solid ground and jumping normals

* Can deal with projectiles fairly well (negate them, EX move and dm's can go through them)

* Easy combo execution

Cons:

* Can't do much with no meter

* Can't confirm many combos from a low attack (only HD combos, d.b > d.a > hcb~f +P, etc.)

* Has trouble anti-airing angled jump-ins outside of the front of his head (CABC is an option but is 2 stocks)

* Has trouble punishing opponents moves, a lot of moves have slow start-up

Anyone agree or disagree with any points?

Feel free to make up your own list!

Character Discussion / Character Discussion board rules

« on: April 03, 2012, 12:03:59 AM »

1.) Feel free to add threads to character sections you feel that are very specific or pertaining to one topic or subject. Like for example:

"Kim video thread" or "HD combo thread"

"Kyo's Matchup Thread"

or even something very specific like this: http://dreamcancel.com/forum/index.php?topic=1870.0

But don't make duplicate threads on the same topic.

Also feel free to make your own character guides on anything you feel is helpful or important to know. For example a guide on Kyo's normals, a guide on how to properly do Benimaru's lightening loops, Athena's butt loop combo, EX Iori's free cancel, etc.

2.) This boards are for character discussion only. Off topic threads like online/offline matchmaking, fan art, discussion about other games, etc. etc. go elsewhere.

3.) If you are a member of the wiki editing team be sure to post your additions related to the character pages you are editing in the 'console' thread or their 'wiki building' thread if there is one.

4.) Understand that whatever information you post or share here MAY be used for the KOFXIII wiki. You will be credited.

5.) Have fun sharing and contributing information here! Thanks to everyone that answers questions too.

General Discussion / Dream Cancel KOFXIII Wiki Community Project Thread

« on: March 22, 2012, 08:55:19 PM »

This thread is for those currently working on the DC KOFXIII wiki, and people who may be interested in joining the editing team.

http://dreamcancel.com/wiki/index.php?title=The_King_of_Fighters_XIII

For current members, here are the rules

1.) No plagiarizing from other guides or wikis. Members found doing this will have their editing rights revoked.

2.) If you are banned from the forums for any reason, your editing rights will be revoked.

3.) Only contribute and edit pages for characters that you are focusing on or that you main. Don't worry about editing another characters page that you aren't learning or playing with.

4.) Be sure to document your contribution plans and edits in the character thread. Either their wiki building thread or main console thread. If you have a video you want to add to a page, post it in the video thread first. If you have any helpful images you feel may be worth contributing, post them for which ever character it features, in the character thread. If its images on system information or mechanics, post them in this thread.

5.) Be sure to credit members who has contributed information in the character threads that you are adding to a page. Example: http://dreamcancel.com/wiki/index.php?title=Benimaru_Nikaido_%28XIII%29#Contributors

6.) Be open to any feedback or constructive criticism you may receive in the character threads from any information or edits you may have done to any pages. Be open and free to share any feedback in those threads as well. Catch any kind of mistakes or useless information, and report them in the the thread.

7.) Again, ANY feedback or questions on any character pages should be discussed in their respective character threads.

8.) Any feedback or questions or the wiki as a whole should be discussed in this thread.

9.) Be sure to keep the formatting and organization in the pages the way it currently is. If you are having trouble trouble editing the wiki or have any technical questions, feel free to ask them here. If you have any ideas for much better design or organization for the pages, feel free to express them with us.

10.) When writing, please stay away from first person references and perspectives (use of the words "I", "my", "me" etc.)

11.) Make sure to use factual statements. Don't add things you aren't sure of 100% or have not tested out (or has been tested out with evidence by someone else).

12.) Stay away from adding storyline details to any pages.

13.) Use letter notation for movements (ex. qcf, hcb, etc). Not number notation (236, 214).

As of right now we do have character pages that are being worked on by dreamcancel members:

Pages that are currently abandoned that need further work:

Goro

Andy

Takuma

Vice

King

If you will like to help any of the members above with their pages, communicate with them in the character thread for the pages they are working on: http://dreamcancel.com/forum/index.php?board=6.0

To look at recent changes to the wiki, check out this page: http://dreamcancel.com/wiki/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges

If you are interested in joining the wiki team, send me a PM with a username, temporary password, email and optional real name. Also, provide a brief detail on what exactly you will like to contribute, if its system information, work on certain character pages, etc. The mod team and myself will take a look at your posting history to see how active you are in the forums and what kind of things you contribute gameplay wise, if it either questions/answers or combos, strats, etc.

If you are currently part of the wiki team for a while but haven't contributed anything so far...you better start working soon because I will start revoking rights if you have contributed little to nothing and you aren't active. Here is an current active users list: http://dreamcancel.com/wiki/index.php?title=Special:ActiveUsers

Thanks to everyone currently working on the wiki, your work is greatly appreciated. It is a community and team effort, and lets keep it that way.

Online Matchmaking / KOFXIII Blue/Green Bar Search Connection List

« on: February 03, 2012, 09:02:19 PM »

For those who have been playing online in KOFXIII with the patch have found some good connections those with blue (4 bars) or green (3) bar connections.

1.) Post up your psn or XBL game handle, with your area (country, state/province/region), and a speed or pingtest from www.speedtest.net.

2.) In your post, write:

4/Blue Bars



3/Green Bars



2/Yellow

---

You will edit these with players to who you have found good connections with. Swap gamertags for you can play and arrange matches in the future.

Also, try exchanging lobby hosts to see if there is any difference in connection.

remember to forward your ps3 ports (TCP: 5223, UDP: 3478, 3479, 3658), and turn off those torrents, lol. Wired connections ONLY.

EDIT: You can also try disabling upnp in your ps3 network settings under internet connection settings. I tried it with a local friend who we had green/3 bars with (for some odd reason) and it boosted us to blue/4 bars. The results may vary.

Ex Kyo / EX Kyo (NESTS) Combo Thread

« on: January 12, 2012, 08:28:04 PM »

http://dreamcancel.com/wiki/index.php?title=NESTS_Kyo_%28XIII%29#Combos

If you got em, we want them. Mid-screen, corner, mention how many stocks and drives it takes, share damage values, if it ends in a hard knockdown or not, if its character specific, etc. It would be best to keep things on the more practical side, but if you have anything crazy feel free to share.

Post them up, share them and they will be added and you will be credited on the wiki.

thanks in advance.

EDIT: This is what I have so far:

Mid-Screen

No Stock, No Drive Gauge -

- d.B x 2, s.B, df+D = 167 dmg, 5 hits

- d.B x 2, s.B, dp+C = 180 dmg, 5 hits

- d.B, s.B, qcf+B, rdp+B = 188 dmg, 5 hits, hard knockdown

- d.B x 2, s.B, [qcf+A, qcf+A, B] = 200 dmg, 6 hits

- d.B, s.B, [qcf+A, qcf+A, A] = 180 dmg, 6 hits, hard knockdown


A jump attack can be added before these following combos

- s.C, f+B, hcb+K = 250 dmg, 5 hits, hard knockdown

- s.C, f+B, rdp+B = 166 dmg, 3 hits, hard knockdown

- s.C, f+B, [qcf+C, hcb+P, f+P, dp+P] = 257 dmg, 6 hits

- s.C, df+D = 162 dmg, 3 hits

- s.C, [qcf+A, qcf+A, B] = 199 dmg, 4 hits

- s.C, [qcf+C, hcb+P, f+C, dp+C] = 260 dmg, 6 hits

- s.C, rdp+B = 136 dmg, 2 hits, hard knockdown

- s.C, hcb+D = 225 dmg, 4 hits, hard knockdown


No Stock, 1+ Drive Gauge -

- d.B x 2, s.B, [qcf+A, qcf+A] [DC], rdp+B = 195 dmg, 6 hits, hard knockdown

- d.B x 2, s.B, [qcf+A, qcf+A] [DC], hcb+K = 269 dmg, 8 hits, hard knockdown

Takuma Sakazaki / The s.C, F+B, db~f+K Thread

« on: December 30, 2011, 04:35:29 PM »

This thread is for people having trouble with this little combo, and for people that have mastered it and want to share how they got it down.

The way I have personally for myself got this down so far is doing the downback charge BEFORE the F+B kick even comes out, then pressing forward and kick almost near the end of the F+B hit activation and its animation. Actually, I had to purposely miss the db~f+K a few times then tighten up the time less late to get it on time.

The only way I have found out that it isn't coming out if I didn't properly start the db charge on time, before the F+B even begins animating.

Fyi, if you are having trouble with this string, that does not mean you should ditch Takuma forever. He has other combos involving his s.C, F+B...you can do his qcf~hcb+P super, his f, hcf+P super or is qcf+K, etc. etc..
