KoF XIII General Discussion: Part II

Yeah the matches with that system were really sick and fast as hell, one of the reasons why i still play XI even today in my PS2 (with SF3).

I would like the tag system in the next KOF game with the traditional 3v3 system as a different option.

ehh I wasn’t a fan of the tag system. It’s kinda the reason why I wasn’t a fan of 03 and XI. Actually that’s the main reason I wasn’t so big on it. I probably wouldn’t have bothered if both games had characters I wanted to play badly.

Well i had a blast playing with the new characters especially Oswald (INB4 “he is OP lollolol”), the garou team was a real nice addition for me with Hayate, Gai, etc, i loved my main team with Eiji, Oswald and Kasumi and sometimes Hotaru, maybe i was bored with the same characters :confused:

My only problem? the graphics, hell even Art of Fighting 3 and RB2 looks better.

They went back to 98/2002-style mechanics because those games are always the ones that are played the most. It would be cool to see them do something different for a future game, though.

is it just me or does the game read the forward inputs really fast? like i get a punish with iori/shen and i try to cl.FP f.A/B and i clearly press fp then hold forward but i still get throw out. not sure if this is common amongst kof games but it’s just a lil somethin i need to get used to i suppose

also can/how do u neomax from leona’s lvl1 vslasher/air super. i cant land it from her ground super and lvl 2v-slasher but i cant ever seem to cancel from lvl1 :confused:

So… is it just me, or is EX Mr. Karate NOT yet available on PSN, in spite of today having been his ostensive release date?

Am I the only one who had my PS3 on at midnight last night trying to d/l that shit?

Edit: FML so 360 gets it today and I have to wait another 2 days, assuming I read that Japanese correctly >_<…

Did PSN update yet? Sometimes they don’t completely update for a few hours… like… 7pm est

I think PSN isn’t getting it until the 12th.

Normals have 4 frames of delay so if you hit forward during this, you’ll get a throw.


You were right, he’s available now. The sky is not falling. You may return to your lives, people.

Lol Mr. karate is really fun, you can dash after :qcf::hp: and cancel DP with AC if you play right you can stay forever near the opponent, the invinsible semi-proyectile is really versatile, i will play more with him i like rushdown characters a lot.

God Damn Son, EX Kyo even has armor on his idle animation!

Online has been the absolute most awful experience in all my life today. And a good bit of it is thanks to the players!

If you leave after you get a win or a loss, even if it’s against a player you have a good, solid connection with: You are the problem. Everytime I find someone good to play against - whether they OCV me or not - they leave. Only 1 bars want to play with me.

Aside from that, there’s this one message that has been with me. It’s been repeated to me several times today, so it’s hard for me to forget this message. This message gives me strength at times, and weakens me at others.

This message:

Spoiler

The room has reached its capacity.

It’s time to venture online. All my teams are finally complete. Got EX Kyo and the man is boss. Easiest HD combos too. I’ve been working on K’s… It’s hard to believe I couldn’t do his BC combos in 02 when it’s pretty much the same damn thing. Gotta work on HD activation from lows too. Also another character I’m warming up to is a former favorite: Terry Bogard. I doubt he’ll be a character I’ll put a lot of time into but I do like his normals as such stD, crC, fwd+A, far C. Kinda reminds me of Ralf with their range. They do seem to be a bit on the slow side though and his damage without meter is meh.

I wish you could use regular and EX characters on the same team. Really liking Mr. Karate the most out of the EX characters but, I still like Takuma w/ mask more.

Gonna have to come up with a 2nd team, haha.

Lol, yea it sucks at times. I wish I could pick both Iori’s. Like how back in the day I wish I could pick Yashiro & O.Yashiro.

OK… I’m going to ask a question here, that might sound dumb, but it’s a problem that I have with both Mr. Karate and Takuma…

I do F+LK xx qcf+LP… Why do I keep getting the super?

Maybe you’re hitting down back to start the qcf?

turn on input display

Tried that.

I’m hitting F+LP, D, D/F, F+P

I need to go to neutral for quite a moment to NOT have the super come out.

Is F, D/F, D, D/F, F+P a shortcut for the super? That could be it too, but I wont be home for another 12 hours or so to test it.

F+LK you can cancel pretty late, so that might be your best bet unless it doesn’t combo or just buffer F+LK sooner off whatever normal you do before
