Everyone always has an idea of what a character from a certain game should look like. Its just typical opinionated shit just like how C.Viper was too SNK. Which Killer Instinct is basically SF and MK inspired as is. The characters can look any way they want since its inspired by everything. Long as the character is dark or edgy that will fit KI.
Also, people tend to forget that while KI is inspired by some of the most popular fighters out there, it has a reputation for going above and beyond when it comes to character design. In what other fighting game can a living skeleton fight a genetically altered Raptor.
Which brings about a potential realization that newcomers might not be ready for…Sadira, Queen of a guild of assassins and master over arachnids, might be the most normal new fighter coming out.
I have to disagree, Jago is stereotypical “Serious Asian Kung-fu/Ninja man that fights for Honor and other intangible ideals.” In terms of fighting games that is really normal lol.
Yeah KI is like Marvel or Darkstalkers where the character not being a human being is very possible. Sadira’s instinct mode shows off her more demonic side though.
Jago’s story was something like being guided by the tiger spirit to crush Ultratech or something.
His story got interesting when he learned he was deceived.
No, I mean normal NEW fighter; hasn’t been in the game before. With characters like Riptor, Cinder & Spinal, Double Helix has the opportunity to really think outside the box when bringing in the new class; which is why KI fans don’t scoff when zombies, vampires and mutants are brought in as suggestions.
Just for humor, I googled a bit to find out the etymology of Sadira. The name has two meanings:
- Lotus Tree
2)Ostrich running from Water.
It’s also an arabic/Persian name, even though the developers say she is from Thailand.
Would it be totally farfetched to have a Thai person with an arabic/persian name? I know Russian people that have Persian first names and such. Oh well…still better than ninja from Tibet.
okay guys copy past from my post in dh forums
First of all i would like to excuse my english since im french ill try my best here I got some request for the online mode that i think should not be
neglected. First off the option to rematch right away in player matches, i think its crucial since it takes some loading time just to pick same char ect.
I hope since its digital title its faster (maybe someone could anwser that?) but still i relly appreciate little things like that when playing a fighter online.
Second would be the ability to fight a sparring char before someone join ur room (like in blazblue)
Another thing, about traning mode would be nice if could select any stage and select the bmg as well ether bmg for the stage (if theres any?) or char theme.
Search functionality is crucial in online mode ass well. Trussted bad indication like in sf green good red bad ect would be pretty if could be trusteed as some game shows good connection but dosent represent the lag in the actual battle.
And all the others goddies as well ico sentence tittle ect
soory if thoses things have been mentioned before but i want it to share it with u guys i hope the dh team will read this.
PS. for me the rematch option is relly important thats the purpus of my post tanks!!!
Another sweet addition would be to have 2 ultra and maybe i didint pay enuff attention but to me the game feels fluid exept throws they are very clunky (not the throw animation itself but when u break a throw)
I would like the dev team to look at this as well. Health bar seem pretty basic as well (boring) i mean its an health bar lol i get it but still i think it could be tweak a bit before release. Its all those small details that makes a good game. Online should relly not be negleted since its basictly the purpus of the game (xbox live promo with 12 month) they should relly work hard on it and read the forums and gathers as much information and idea as possible to make it a perfect game.
Hope they do a lot of lag test as well can t afford to have a sub par net code brand new console ect relly hope it set the stander higher in therms of smoothness online instead of feeling like BEEN THERE DONE THAT!!
Another thing is when a char is losing the round when they fall on the ground dunno but i feel its a bit weird.
I just wish they will do what ever they can to avoid or fix clunkiness before release (a patch maybe?)
^Couldn’t that have been a single post?
Morgan and tw others from AP I can’t remeber off the top of my head
Isn’t BBCP about to introduce a charge character as a console exclusive?
Lol you guys are OVER-hyping Sadira so bad RN
Of course, she is badass lol 
I might be jumping the gun here, but I think the recent announcement of the SteamOS increased the likelyhood of a Windows KI port.
I hope I’m right.
That seems like a long shot but I would definitely be okay with it.
I don’t think the two things are connected.
