i know what you're talking about and from my experience it has been because i may have done it too early, but it looks like it should of hit.

Yeah, it appears that way, but the thing is I always do the rdp + B at the earliest moment and never see it whiff in training mode.

I really hate it when this happens, not only do I waste a golden opportunity and meter, I also get put in the corner....

Has anyone noticed that rdp B sometimes whiffs after the upkicks near the corner?  The opponent seem to have some sort of wall bounce and just fly over Kyo causing the rdp B to whiff...

I've seen it a couple times myself.  The last time I saw it, I was fighting a Kula.  We were close to the corner, but not close enough to do a corner juggle combo.  So after I landed a close C, I hit confirmed into df D, activate HD mode, C, df D (2 hits), hcb K to push her into the corner, followed by qcf D, then I did the rdp B at the earliest moment and ready to pull off Kyo's killer corner combo, but then rdp B just whiffed and I wasted the entire HD bar.

I can't remember the other conditions where I saw it, but they were all during actual player matches, and if I remember correctly, I've seen it happen with or without HD mode and also saw it happen exactly at the corner once.  I've practiced the combo literally hundreds of times in practice mode, but I don't think I remember it happening in practice mode.

Anyone know more about this?

If I lived closer to Framingham, I'll go to Games Underground a lot.  Last time I was there, I spent the whole time playing drummania in the back and kind of gave up on the KOF tourney.  lol

I'm having trouble stopping opponent's hop pressure.  Normally with other characters I would use st A at hop distance to preempt hop attacks, but Iori's standing A and B are both kind of crappy...  So for Iori I would use Cr C instead.  However, Cr C is kind of slow and has a lot of recovery, so it has to be timed correctly. 

How do you guys deal with hop pressures?

So... anyone else's player data get erased lol?

I was playing a level 8 and all of a sudden after one match he turned into a level one, mine was still the same. I then turn the system off but when I come back a little while later I'm in the same boat, I'm a level 1 and all my stats have started from scratch.

Billy and Saiki are still unlocked but all the unlocked colors have been lost.

Fuck.

Something similar happened to me several times - The other side's stats are reset in the middle of a long set.  When that happens, their names are blanked out and the win loss stats within the room don't add up.  However, my stats have never been reset.  I did suspect they increased my loss numbers by about 10 games once.  It probably happened during the glitch where the game attributed my opponent's losses to me by error.

Anyways, I actually don't mind having my stats reset.  A lot of people come into my room, saw my level, and leave immediately.

Yeah, sure.  It's possible we live too far apart for a decent connection.  Add me on Xbox and we'll find out.

Yes, definitely.  I feel like it has more to do with my cable internet connection.  My speed is unstable when my neighbors start streaming netflix during peek hours and weekends. 

KOF XIII PS3 version took the 5th place of sales ranking of gamer.com.tw.

Well, the KOF series has always been huge in Asia.  I'm more curious to see how well the game sells in North America.

I know how you feel.  I played a lot of matches vs my friend and it bumped my player level up pretty high.  If I wait 30 mins for someone to join, chances are they leave immediately anyway. 

Me and you should play together, we connected decently didn't we?  I won't use Kula, I promise.

I believe we played the other day and I left after one match.    The connection was weird that day that I was dropping combos left and right. 

Perhaps we can play again some other time?

Jaguar, which room are you?

We were running kof for a while, but we switched over to something else.  There is little interest of kof in my crew...
