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

i forget that the japanese apparently like killer instinct (not that it’s a bad thing)

Come to think of it, has there been any sword fighters in kof?

Playable? Foxy from KOF 2001/2002UM I guess

Non-playable? plenty

Kinda forgot about her and yes I meant playable.

Yamazaki uses a knife if that counts, oh and Hanzo hattori from Maximum Impact.

I hope either the new Southtown character or newcomer prisoner is a sukeban (female delinquent)

SNK has never added a character like this in KOF before, plus they can have another “edgy” female.

She could be like this

For some reason I don’t see the last member of the South Town team being a girl, much less some female delinquent. I mean why would Geese be with some random delinquent, Billy fills that role just fine. Besides we already have plenty of female newcomers, it wouldn’t be a tragedy to have one less

That would work if Southtown was in japan. An american femal delinquent wouldn’t look like that. Here’s hoping that this may be the debut of the first black female character in KOF.

That’s very sexist.

There shouldn’t be a limit to how many female characters a game should have, honestly don’t understand why some players think there should be in the first place.

Also it’s not just about another female character, it’s about the overall archetype. And I’m sure there could be a reason to have a female delinquent (or someone like that) in the Southtown team.

And it was just a suggestion. PS I also said a character like this could be for the prison team.

I always thought Foxy was a light-skinned black woman. but I would gladly welcome more women of color in kof~

I don’t think it’s sexist from a business perspective. You would want to have around a 50/50 ratio of male / female if you want to cater to both audiences. Naturally this cannot be ideally realized as there will be males who pick females and vice versa. I wouldn’t see it as a limit to how many “X” characters there are but rather that it is in around the same boundaries as the other gender as Insurance. But as it is now the roster is around 27 males to 32 (5 characters possible) to 17 possibly 22 females. Brazillian Ninja, Cyborg Boxer, Pillow Child, Newcomer Prisoner and new Southtown Character are viable to both genders at this point. It wouldn’t hurt to make any of them female as the roster is currently in favor of male characters ratio wise.

I’m basing this on the Roster Visualization made by AT_Ryo_Sakazaki

Having no connection to any king of fighter characters just looking at that picture, Tizoc, Chang and Mai’s titties are the only ones that stand out to me. I am not a fan of their character design for the most part, nothing wrong with them, just not what I find visually appealing.

So going into this game I am hoping that Brazilian Ninja and Cyborg Boxer are dope, or some of those female characters I know nothing about have dope designs because not too excited by what was seen thus far… (oh the chic with the peoples elbow)

Guess it wasn’t a good decision for me to start with KOF XIII then, as I never played a single KOF game prior to that

That sounds amazing, man. This series can always benefit from additional exposure from and for the community, even though EVO might have helped 13 already

Quit overreacting. What I said wasn’t sexist. I never said that there were too many female newcomers, I never said the last South Town team member couldn’t be a girl, and I never said there had to be a limit on female cast members. All I said was that I don’t THINK(objective thought and opinion) the last South Town team member will be female and if there were no female newcomers besides the ones we know about(Alice, Kim’s master’s wife, acting mask girl, Chinese idol,pretty Latin girl, Nakaruru, Love Heart and Mui Mui) it would not be a tragedy. All I was saying is that having only 8 out of 19 new characters being female is not the end of the world.

[quote=“Bubba_da_genius, post:3335, topic:176463”]

I WASN’T EVEN OVERREACTING

It just seemed like you implied that the game had enough females as it was based off what you said before. Especially mentioning the gender ratio when it wasn’t even brought up by me to begin with.

You’re forgiven, just try to word your post clearer next time.

Gato is fucking retarded in Garou. I have to play against a stomp canceling one and.man that asshole always sitting on meter :rofl:

Man looking at that picture of the roster gets me hyped, looking like a great roster. Cant wait to try some of the newcomers!

[quote=“Monkey66, post:3336, topic:176463”]

I’m forgiven? I didn’t do anything. You’re the one who unjustly called me sexist. And I did say the game had enough women, just like it has enough men so it wouldn’t be anything to wine about if say the Brazilian ninja was a girl. Which by the way still isn’t sexist. It would only be sexist if I was to imply that the game needed to follow a ratio placing one gender over the other or that there was a such thing as too many of either(which I am not). So by calling me sexist, you did in fact overreact.
But it’s ok. I forgive you :wink:

Does Pillow Child uses a Dakimakura?
That would be dope.

Laban: I’m gonna be home in like 4 hours. If you’re on or not busy let’s do our set. I would like a FT10 and I want you to pick your main guys, like the team you would pick in a tournament. I’ll be using my main team of kyo,ryo and benimaru. Don’t hold back I tend to learn better after sessions like this.
