Love the positive attitude. I wonder if any of the other XB1 exclusives will have payment systems like this. I may be old school but I like owning physical copies of things, I still buy books in print and stuff. Same with games.
I’m really glad that Mick Gordon passed us a preview of the music. It certainly is going to help me wait until Gamescom. And what is this Shadow Jago thing I’m hearing about?
We don’t know what he actually is, just that he exists.
We’ll likely find out at Gamescom.
I’m kinda both ways.
part of me likes the tactile nature of the physical copy, but the other part of me likes the convenience of digital.
But my understanding is KI is digital only, so… I’ll take the free one.
I always remember the time my friend broke my copies of Resident Evil and Alpha 2 on Sega Saturn after borrowing them and gave me Last Bronx as compensation. I only see the upside in digital after that BS. Will help keep my room from cluttering with shit that I don’t really touch or use much.
Xbone would be a better digital platform if it allowed you to upgrade the HDD. 500GB won’t be enough with the amount of downloading I do
It lets you use any external storage medium. So just plug in an external HDD.
That’s way better than buying a proprietary upgrade any way.
Well, at the risk of veering into console talk, the competition lets you do both. But yeah, storage isn’t really an issue.
I don’t care at this point if you get into system talk as long as you don’t get into a war about it. I just clammed it up for a bit so people would just see that this is a good game in the works that’s being backed by more of the FGC than any big fighting game release I’ve ever seen. I feel that was also very important to bring up and it’s good to see a thread that shows that off rather than the Xbox vs. PS4 crap.
Anyone who says shit to bring up system war style “this system sucks/won’t sell” crap will get flag notifications and/or a ban. It’s nice to talk about systems, but this thread is about Killer Instinct ultimately. Would be the same for any other game. You talk about the game, not the system.
I’ll be updating the front page with new info and how the rules for the thread will work from that point on.
It’s a reason why they’re pushing their Cloud Storage service. But yeah, better just to get an External HDD.
I had fun playing it at EVO, I do hope they decide to keep the bloody violence in it in the end.
August really can’t come fast enough.
Lol at the end, hopefully that meant we’ll also see Orchid during his reveal
So judging by what chief thunder said, this clearly confirms he’s a grappler. lol, i wouldn’t put it past DH to use that as a hint to thunders gameplay.
… i… i dont know how i would feel about a grappler in KI… well hey its a new day so let me stop
just dont bring back tusk…thanks
I love grapplers…I’d hate for CT to be one. It would be a straight THawk rip at that point. I’d rather they introduce new characters to be grapplers as opposed to altering older characters.
“WTF why is TJ Combo kicking me”
- :bluu:
I’m curios how a grapple would work in this engine actually. It could work two ways I think:
- normal command grab. This could be really powerful depending I how much damage it does. As its in breakable.
-grab feeds into combo engine. This makes it just another mixup like an overhead or unblockable. This is good or bad depending on the range/speed of the grab.
By guess is its the latter. And that you can use the grab as an ender/opener/linker like other special moves.
Of the original cast, I do think Chief Thunder would fit the grappler mold best. I can see him tossing dudes with those Tomahawks embedded in them.
