KOF XIV General Discussion - King of Fighters XIV Arcade Ver. Burn 2 Fight cabinets from Taito!

[Hawkingbird]

I dunno. I think at least one member of China team will have a brand new hero (like KOF94 introduced Kyo, NESTS Chronicles introduced K’, Ash saga introduced Ash/Elisabeth)

perhaps 1 spot in China team, 1 spot in Criminal team, 1 spot in South Town team could be reserved for a previous SNK character. but Palace Wan team looks to be made up of completely new fighters, as well as South America team,

but I dunno why they would pick Fighter’s History (which was sued for resembling SF too much) over something more creative like WORLD HEROES for character(s) to add to KOFXIV. well yea World Heroes does have a bunch of characters that are too over the top, but I think 1 or 2 of them would be compatible with KOF character designs .

They tried to sue, data east never actually got sued, kinda ironic when you look at yun and yang who are a complete rip off of lee

If it is a fighters history character and they are on the chinese team it can only be lee or felin, and she was a terrible character i dont see it being her, I dont see how it can be anybody on geeses team either

I would like to see Liu Yungmie in the Korean team. SNK would be able to play it however they want.

I hope the non-human species final boss is the Ox from Fighters History Dynamite

I hope it’s Rugal and Geese

How is that a non-human species character? Or are you moving away from the leak?

Hey how come SNK isn’t including any maximum impact characters.

I don’t think that would be a good idea considering XIV’s reputation for being maximum impact 3.

[Hawkingbird]

None of the characters created for the spin-off games make the jump to the main series. The characters from GBA games don’t get any love either.

[ReoGeoSRK]

Which is dumb because they have some good designs. I hate how SNK sometimes only focuses on the series from 94-2002 while ignoring everything else.

Maybe it’s because the 94-2002 characters are more well known(I’m not sure though). Or maybe in terms of GBA games is that they want to steer away from characters that were not on their own consoles during it’s lifetime(still not sure).

[Virtua_Leon]

I think it’s safe to assume that any fighters history character would probably undergo massive redesigns if they get included. On that note I love the way the game plays because it’s basically SF2 except with chain combos.

If it’s felin i’ll wear i got beasted by reogeosrk @98 avatar for a month

GBA games were ports of 99 and 2000 with a new storyline and a couple original characters.

KOF is SNK Smash, expect anyone from any of their franchuses .

I know, I was just referring to those characters themselves(but I see how it is confusing).
Ah, how I miss KOF R-2

the KOFMI characters are in the same state of the characters from SFEX.
different rights owners (Falcoon and not snk)

SNK owns the characters as they appeared on the KoF x Fatal Fury mobile card game.

[affinity]

those greedy selfish idiots really don’t care about the fans. If I owned those characters, I’d let SNKP have them instead of having them just sit there in stasis unused. though of course I wouldn’t want MI characters over the leaked hinted newcomers that KOFXIV could be getting. anyways even if SNKP had the rights to MI characters, I don’t think they would use them for a KOF unless it’s a dreammatch between sagas.

in a way it’s good SNKP doesn’t have MI characters, that lets them focus on making better and newer characters instead of just excessively copy/pasting previous characters in the portfolio. with the way KOF XIV is going now, there’s looking to be at least 8 brand new fresh faces in the roster, two of the teams being 100% brand new as well, that’s MASSIVE big deal considering the average KOF used to only add like 3-4 brand new characters on average. and KOFXIV is more than doubling that, counting the new story bosses as well.

Like they would let Falcoon own rights to characters.

[SoleChris]

U guys think we getting a new trailer at the keynote on the 19th? I think it’s possible however I’m not getting my hopes up for a new playable build. You are not fooling me again SNK!

[Hadoking]

Yes, definitely . I’m sure It’s gonna be new. Go for it man!

[Leebee_Link]

Alba looked like a fucking douche (alt costume was fine tho) but his moveset was cool as hell. I would totally like to see him in a 2D KOF.
