Killer Instinct XB1: Season 2 hits October 15th. 20 dollars for Combo, 40 dollars for Ultra

I also hope this “22nd” shipment means we will get it by then and not shipping out on the 22nd. MadCatz has been giving us blue balls too long on this. Today better be the day we hear about when they are going to ship. I might have to /self if we get another tweet this evening stating “WE JUST WANT TO ANNOUNCE THAT WE WILL HAVE MORE INFO ABOUT THE TE2 SHIPMENTS NEXT WEEK THANKS FOR YOUR PATIENCE!”.

Between these sticks, Shadow Jago and my fav character Fulgore I’ll have more than enough blue balls to put on the tree this Xmas.

Oh and yeah I’ll be very vocal about another “announcement of our announcement”.

I think they will have out-Capcom’ed Capcom if they do that again.

Umm … not sure what to make of this video, that shows the tail end of a 241 or so hit ultra combo with Jago.

Does that mean there are infinites or something? Or I’m wondering if it was all setup with the opponent and it incorporated a lot of counter breakers to drain the entire life bar. I noticed it didn’t show the end of the combo where it gives you the damage.

Nah man, the Announcement of an Announcement is the Square-Enix special. Capcom only picked up the trade.

@purbeast, without ultra assist I’ve never seen a combo go higher than 50 something hits. Unless Jago’s instinct mode allows for some dumb long combos, don’t see how it would work without multiple counter breakers (since those reset KV each time).

Most likely counter breaker assisted. Counter breaks would be the easiest way to rack up combo numbers. Even if it wasn’t, chances are the combo eventually becomes predictable and easy to break. The KV system should prevent infinites in some similarity to how MVC2’s spin out prevents an infinite after so many hits.

So KI is no longer KI. Who would be the best player to use if you’re going to pre launch tournament?

KI is a KI that’s actually making an attempt to be a serviceable fighter and not just riding on presentation alone.

And Jago/Wulf.

We already went through this with SFIV and Marvel. You’re not going to get what you remember to a tee. Its play the old games or step up to change.

Jago and Sabrewulf are the most accessible as far as their basic gameplan. Everyone else will take you more grinding to unlock a decent amount of potential.

Dammit I have a back ordered 1 and quantity 1, I’m canceling it and picking it up on the 13th at a local gamestop and it will save me at least $30 in shipping. Pad for me is just fine for now.

Um, alright, I’m pretty pissed if mine is backordered. I checked this morning, had 0 for backordered. I just checked right now, and have 1 for backordered.

I ordered on October 10th literally like within an hour of them taking preorders.

This is starting to look worse and worse.

Chances are they’ll ALL be “backordered”. You realize this right?

Well the fact that they are changing numbers from 0 to 1 in the backordered column makes me wonder. I probably wouldn’t even care about this had the people on double helix forums talked about it.

Pretty much.

Doesn’t mean the game will be bad though.Peronsally between the matches I’ve seen with jago,Lara,nightwolf,glacius and everyone else…the game is looking very promising.

Shadow Jago was just revealed!!

Shadow Jago sounded like the most obvious palette swap and he is lol. They said he’s not finished so there’s that, but yeah, nothing special.

Not like they could’ve made him too much of an individual character since he was only gonna be available to a select few people anyway.

AHAAAAAAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaa

OH WOW - I can’t believe they’re giving us such an awesome deal like… GIVING US A REGULAR FIGHTING GAME LIKE ANY OTHER THE WAY WE’RE SUPPOSED TO HAVE IT, but only if you have demonstrated to be a loyal shit-eating customer for a decade. WOW I FEEL SO PRIVELEGED. Allow me to show my gratitude to you, Microsoft, for repaying me, the loyal customer, after a decade of raping my bank account, and my rights as a paying customer, with a middle finger, and mucus in your face, as I walk off to do my gaming on a PC, as I have grown up, stopped giving a shit about all the latest stupid video games of my childhood I never look back on. So feel free to bait the rose-spectacled manchildren with a never ending trail of shiny toy parts that leads to a living room monitored by the NSA as you milk this obviously so-so fighting game you’re hyping the shit out of on the worst console ever released in history.

Shadow jago has to be the worse palette swap ever.

It’s like going to the color edit in CVS and making ryu have white hair and then calling him"oni ryu"…

Ok NOW he looks like Nightwolf… well Nightbear lol.

Cool costume.

was really hoping S. Jago would be a little more unique :frowning:
