New SNK games on the way

I see HyperHop being here to stay…if you don’t like HyperHop then I suggest you join us over at the NGBC thread…:lovin:

And help me form my petition to SNKP for NGBC2…

Join us in our quest!

NGBC, while a solid fighter from what little I’ve experienced of it, has its own set of probs- namely in the roster (too many main characters)…

Hyperhop I don’t mind per se, it’s just with the speed of the game it makes it almost DOA-ish (a game that is too fast for its own good)

Personally, I think that if they made the game slower, it’d just feel sluggish and stupid.

I’m definetly excited. XII coming seems a little early to me since I haven’t even played XI yet, since the game can’t be found anywhere near where I live. I’m picking up KOF2006 this weekend, and if the 3D SS plays AT LEAST like the MI series, it’ll work just fine in my opinion. I think SNKP moving into 3D is a smart move for them as it allows them to compete and make some money for once. I also hope they bring back the new faces team and redo my favorite song in KOF ever: Bloody.

“Was CvS2 bad because all the sprites other than like…five sucked (and they did. The only good ones were Rock, Geese, Kyo, Maki and Eagle.)”

Heh, I think thats a bit harsh. I don’t like Capcom’s style, but I’d say half of the games’ sprites were well done… or at least they looked like they fit in the game. The only bad ones were all of the SFA characters (less Chun li) and Morrigon… I thought the rest fit. I guess to be fair Playmore reused some sprites for SVC Chaos, but they looked like they fit in with the new sprites they made for the game. The gripe with CvS2 is they don’t even look like they belong in the same game sometimes.

The problem is what you can do after a hyperhop in kof.

I mean, hops are ok in Garou, CvS2, Last Blade 2…I don’t understand why they have to be so dumb in kof.

Yes you can hit people out of hops but that won’t stop anybody…they will keep abusing it because the risk is relatively low and the reward is TOO FUCKING BIG.
I don’t like that.

If HHs have to be this powerful they should at least be harder to perform…just for a change I would like to see a kof game that is about skill.

Well but the thing is that those that are exposed to HH play have no problem stopping it as a whole…I know I don’t…

There’s more than a couple of ways to stop HH abuse…Esp if they decide to do the HH’s normals early and they are overpowered normals…don’t fear…

As I say if there is a will there’s a way…

In NGBC2 should it come out per se then I am sure we will get a more diversified cast than what it already has.

Since it is the first it was mainly formed to compete with Cap F. Evo…and it succeeded in annihilating it with the # of characters alone and the replayability/fun factor…now if they make a sequel they can give us more random characters like Kisarah etc…:lovin:

Holy DAMN the damage and stun in that game are high! :rofl:

I mean, wow, I knew the game was broken but that’s just ridiculous. I’m so that all that nonsense was fixed in later games.

the DS games were not a joke…

Tomorrow : Falcoon will talk about Card Fighter DS.

what the fudge are you talking about? Capcom and SNKP rivalery days are long gone now. They dont even compete with each other anymore and your saying capcom made CFJ to compete with NGBC. Dude, your one lameass SNK fanboy alright. Capcom and SNK rivalery days ended when the fighting game scene die and when Capcom vs. SNK came out. It seems like you really want SNKP to win in the fighting game department, well let me tell you something Dark Geese, their not even close to winning when 5 of their games cant even beat Tekken 5.

And when did shoryuken.com get flooded with all these noobies that dont know jack about fighting games? You noobs need to learn a fact that releasing 3 fighting games every year means the company aint got no other projects to work on, their desperate, or they cant come up with any new stuff at all to begin with. I swear you SNK fanboys really dont know anything about the video game industry or about fighting games periodly. No problem i dont blame you guys cause you guys seem to be all late bloomers that started to get into fighting games when the scene is nearly dead already.

Am im the only elder in here that has something good to say?:sad:

arranged mode of 98 = Answer’s bullshit propaganda and lack of knowledge of fighting games.

This article says that today at the TGS snk announce they are finally going to overhaul the graphics engine of the game and that we are going to get new sprites. I imagine they will be high res. Now all we need is for them to animate them better and this thing could rival guilty gear.

Well being the SNK fanboy he is DG never says that SNK made SEVERAL titles back in the day to compete with SF2(AOF, FF, KOF) and that MOTW was SNK answer to Third Strike. No you’re not the only “elder” around here nobody doesn’t wanna argue with DG for the sake of having to read one of his long winded responses. Tekken sucks BTW…

Lol@KOF98’s Arrange mode oh lordy…here comes Answer with “OMFG LIEK I TOLD YOUZ!”

98, despite being the ST of the KOF series, did have its BS factor- if arrange mode fixes it, I’d be all for it, as long as they don’t overdo it. Best way to fix would be bugfixes, damage nerfs for some chars, and buffs for others…

The only chars in 98 that can really be called “broke” are Iori and Goro, and Goro has some matchups where he loses.

baaa

humbug?

No they can argue all they want AF…I will be ready to go at it…and depending I can either keep it long or short…depends on what they ask.

And why don’t you guys just acknowledge this stuff instead of making sarcastic little comments about it…thats what gets into these heated debaucles…

THINK ABOUT IT.

Acknowledge what?

Anydamnedway Cyberfanatix overhauled with the SNK news and has a shitload of pics…

I’m surprised more people haven’t commented on the fact that SNK is finally going to redo the sprites in KOF XII. Maybe they’re still recovering from head explosions.

Earlier in this thread, I said that SNK wasn’t going to incorporate new sprites with the new Taito hardware. I am so glad I was wrong.

Graphics? who gives a fuck? A solid game is all that matters.
