SNK registers "KOF" trademark

The one game where he came out in wasn’t even made by SNK

Kind of sad it will be 3d, I love 2d sprites.

They’re awful. Gameplay might be half good, but the designs are awkward and annoying, and that Cheng with his weird moves and goddamn screechy voice… Can’t stand for him! >____<

Nah. I’d prefer Lee over Choi, Jubei is not much exciting and we already have seen what Tung can do, I don’t expect the three of them in a “team” LOL, there are way many more options to include.

There’s no need of Rick because Vanessa surpassed his popularity, Heavy D! would be cool but why not the whole USA Sports Team instead? Axel and Mickey were never anything special.

You better not be fucking around.

Niggas hatin’ on Cheng. I personally want a BIG GUYS Team with Cheng, Chang, and Karnov.

All three have really irritating voices and mannerisms. Bring on some Tizoc, better.

Terry is recognizable to non fighter fans, he is #1 and Iori would be #2. Kyo has always been the average Japanese male design with a few change ups. But yes he is still in the stable of most popular peeps.

Has it been confirmed that it will be in 3D? All I remember seeing was them hiring for 3D modelers, but they might just need 3D modelers to provide the base for the characters the same way they did with KOFXIII. At least, that’s what I’m hoping for. They might just need some new, cheap, expendable labor to come in and make low-detail 3D models while their 2D artists, who they might have kept, do the real work.

I don’t think anything has been confirmed whatsoever.

The hardege.org article this image is from suggests that it is highly likely to be a new Maximum Impact game.

P.S.: I remember a time when quoting images was a deadly sin on here. Tut tut

At this point fuck sprites. I don’t care what they do, just do something cheap so they can do a lot and not go broke. ASW has shown that 3D can play damn near frame perfect to 2D and not feel like shit, so I’m on board with anything.

The 3D used in that Pachinko trailer for Samsho actually looks pretty good to me. If it were an actual game, I would be excited for it.

IF they can do it, then sure, but I’d rather play KOF’94 Rebout than any of SNK’s previous 3D efforts. They have a lot to prove when it comes to the third dimension.

Oh yeah, I forgot… Rob Python. XI had Gai Tendo and Silber, Rob would be an awesome addition, either to the boxer team or maybe a full blown Buriki team.

You know, maybe they can work out a deal to use Xrd’s graphics engine? I bet its expensive technology but if they want to make a great 2D looking 2.5D thatll probably be the best way to go.

It uses the Unreal engine, not expensive and probably takes less work than how they made the latest KOF games sprites

I’d play it regardless of quality… :expressionless:

I would too, but for how long is the real question. :frowning:

Then King of Fighters XII(12) is for you.

They should add Dexter from Dexter’s lab for good measure. My team would be Athena, King/‘K’, and Dexter

lol at staying with sprites, those days are over

The next game will have 3D models; anything that’s a level or 2 above complete garbage would be a pleasant surprise coming from SNKP. Best case scenario it will at least play alright.
