I can’t really think of anything SNKP should add to XII, except maybe adding characters from the Maximum Impact series. I’m not exactly sure if SNK intended on MI to be a ‘reboot’ of the SNK Universe–though Ash’s appearence in Another Day seems to tie both series together.
Anyway, I don’t think the gameplay system should be changed too much, since XI’s system is far more polished than 2003’s.
I dont get it why is not coming to usa but the 3d version is this really suck for snk we fans want it to be in usa but i quest the on;y way is in combo pack
Personally, I want KOF to end. Really–we’re already on the eleventh game in the series normal continuity, not to mention the other games in the franchise (Neowave, MI, EX, etc). We’ve already had 3 story arcs and we’ve played with a whole lot of characters. And we’ve had 3 dream match games (though I don’t consider NeoWave an official dream match; it’s more of a proof of concept). In my opinion, SNK should make one more game in the latest “Ash” story arc then end with a final dream match game.
KOF has been a good series–but perhaps SNKP should retire it so they can concentrate on new fighting series or other series that need updating (like Garou MOTW, Real Bout and AOF).
kof should keep going simply because of it being a series that changes so much as time goes on. its not really a single series of 11 games, but more like 3 series’. after the next couple games, it should take another drastic change and become yet another new series. if they go back and make sequels to their other existing games, they might try to hard to keep it grounded to the previous games, instead of taking new directions every 3 or 4 games
Full - power Ash in some role (final boss, mid-boss, whatever).
Edit: I just thought more about this, and rumours are that Ash might go after K’ next game, so XII might not be the game were he shows his true strength as a playable character (might do that in XIII). That would require 4 games for the current story arc though, something that SNK has never done before - but I think this arc is big enough that it could be stretched out over a fourth game.
The return of Lin to further / conclude the side - story between Duo Lon and Ron that’s been happening in 2K3 and XI.
More awesome story development. IMHO this arc that we’re on right now is the best out of all the KOFs. So many teams are involved in either the main or an important side - story, it’s great.
With regards to continuity, either give Iori a year off, or have him show up depowered (i.e., no flames) to coincide with what Ash did to him at the end of XI.
(This is nit - picking on my part, mostly) More “aesthetically - pleasing” Dream Cancels (if they’re still in the game). Personally Ralph’s dreamcancel from QCF,HCB + P -> Galactica Phantom would look so much better if you had to do it on the last hit of the DM, which knocks them up into the air, and then the Phantom hits them on the way down.
bring back Leona god damn it! One game without her was 1 game too much and make her good. She sucked in 2k3. Bring back 96 Leona
yeah it wouldn’t hurt to up the graphics but I usually not one to complain about graphics. They did good in KOFXI and NGBC
Bring back Goenitz as well maybe
Have chars. be able to heal back energy when u swap them out. While I wonder what the game would be like if ur team mates could jump out and assist MVC2 style…only balanced. Could be good, as long as it didnt work just like the strikers that all did alsmot the same thing.
well than I dont see the point of switching out chars. then. Except if u have built up bar and there’s someone on the team who could make better use of it like your Leader.
