KOFXIV Announced for 2016

[Shiranui_ninja]

I don't regret to not have King. We knew that 25th's build was going to have 24 playable characters and we have 34 characters revealed... I wonder why they left out some characters wich we never seen, like Angel, Ralf or Geese, or Kukri who I was expectig to see. It would have been cool to have them instead characters we already saw in previous builds. But maybe it's just because they are buggy or not ready for gameplay.

Rather, I am surprised that we got characters from trailers were just released. From the screenshot of the 24 roster I thought I saw a "2 members and a random" theme but guess that was just me.

Angel and Ralf were some of the earliest revealed characters and they are absent from the new build while Mai and Banderas are present even though they were revealed just last week.

So it doesn't look like they are revealing characters based on their total completion rate, and nor did it effect their decision on whom to include in the new build.

I would guess the Monday trailer will be part of the broadcasted show.

I thought about this possibility and I wouldn't mind, launching a trailer this way was spectacular at PSE in December :D

[The Fluke]

It might be the simple fact that some characters just need more tweaking than others to play well. New characters will certainly need more work than old characters but for example ralf in 13 isn't too fantastic so they're probably changing him up a bit again. I hope he gets his command throw back.

Has there been any word on PAX? Or has it even started yet? Time zones are weird, it's evening here when I'm writing this :/

[shinefist]

Not a sausage yet.. Upon thinking about it, I think it was a silly idear to have the demo at pax followed by the hype of the Osaka reveal 2 days later. Maybe people actually thought "why would I go to pax if they going to do a big reveal and have lots of new info on monday"

I guess snkp have to market the game still.

I'm not that hype for pax either really, afew of us stated that afew posts ago. Unless the players are gonna try new things out then we have seen it all before really.

[Custle]

Shame. I'd like to hear more experiences of how the game feels, sounds and looks. Well, PAX still isn't over yet and Monday sounds promising

Hnnhg... I wonder can I sleep tonight? So much anticipation. Or maybe it is just the new puppy that likes wake me up at 5 a.m.

Anyways, stream should start at 6 p.m JST. So for me it is 12 p.m Glad I can watch the stream, but I presume they will speak Japanese, but at least I can watch

So much Hori's. Are those the new model with Hayabusa buttons.... STOP TEASING ME!

[Diavle]

I really hope people pick the new characters a lot.

[The Fluke]

Interesting.. I'm considering getting a new hori stick for ps4 so colour me intrigued. I'm also considering a ps4. My Kuro buttons are sort of breaking down. They keep working with no problems but their rims are actually breaking apart. I can actually push two of them into the box. GO RAPID PUNCHES!

In the UK it starts at 10 am. Wish SNKP on having a great first stream. All I want is them to show the full game systems with some video examples so we get an idear on what we have on our hands, anything else is a bonus.

I'm expecting something different for them to show, like certain moves can cancel into other moves. I know you cannot do this but they could make it so you could just do one cancel per combo. Or cancels take up a whole stock. This cannot break the game.

This is just my guess on what they'll do.

Damn this feels like Christmas when I was 7 lol
