Well I didnt actually say that was my reason for not playing KOF, I was just pointing out one of the things about the series that turns me off. Theres also no scene for SNK fighters in the US. On top of the game just being a bore to watch compared to the other fighters that are out.
KOF always struck me as [S]mexican[/S] flashy Street Fighter so I’m a bit confused by this. I don’t know KOF XII and XIII look quite pretty in action kinda wish 13 would have the silly zoom and confetti effect from 12 when you scored the critical counter hit, but of course make it for activating that new bar thingy.
Not gonna be able to make it tomorrow’s tourney since its my sister’s birthday, but I should be able to show up at EZ this upcoming Friday. Anyone trying to get some practice on UMvC3 as much as me?
What’s up man. Check us out on the Facebook group. The Charlotte group is always doing things. I have Bar Fights every Wednesday night and tourneys every week.
Let me know if you don’t have a facebook account. The guys from Greensboro come down almost every Wednesday. We can see about getting you a car pool with them
Gonna put it out there that the KOF netcode is certainly “alright”. I definitely am going to place it at that solid SF4 level. Definitely not as good as BB has had it and I feel 3SO was alright except for the mass amount of idiots with misconfigured routers online. So I would put it below those two, above the first MVC3 and around SF4.
Really? That is a bold statement cause SF4 netcode is really, really good when connected to someone that has a good connection. I can connect to guys in NY that have fiber and it’s like we are playing offline almost.
I sure hope it’s good. I don’t think they can afford for it not to be. That explains why there is no spectator mode
At first I was like “Whaaa? We talking about the same game that has Ryuko-ranbu and beam supers?” But I had to sit and think about it. While KOF has the capacity for a certain amount of craziness, one valid complaint about the older games is that hitsparks and hitstun has a certain amount of visual “softness” to it that lacked impact and downplays the gameplay. XIII seems as if they took that complaint to heart and specifically made things more flashy. However, I’d argue that they may have over did it since some visual effects seem to clash a bit/detract from the sprites.
Damnit Jimmy how you gonna beat me twice and then get third? You were farming me for wins so you could place, you jerk :lol:
I think I can say this with good confidence after playing more people in UMVC3, games more broke than vanilla ever was. XF3 is still stupid. Wesker is retarded. Doom is stupid. Vergil is amazing. Ghost Rider is a cheap son of a bitch. Doctor Strange book super is fucking retarded. They may have nerfed the gay stuff from vanilla but there’s plenty more new gay stuff for people to rage about.
If I drop one more combo into being foot dived into death with doom having like 4 hours to OTG, I’m gonna lose it.
I’m gonna have to test this to make sure but I’m pretty sure if doom connects j.S you can put down your stick buy a cup of coffee and a bagel come back pick up your stick and not drop the combo.
