T8: Games/Rules Discussion

Let’s see, XI should defenitely be the KOF game used, it has been out for import for quite sometime and IMO, the best King of Fighters out.

With regards to the second point, I defenitely agree with you, with Slash being the main. I’d hate to leave out the people who play/pratice Slash and simply cannot get the oppurtunity to play/practice Accent Core, to have to play it at T8.

In any case, that’s my opinion.

but you’re a scrub, so your opinions are useless by default. <3

You’re on, but only if there’s a Venn Diagram side tournament as well.

…uh…no 02. That game is crap. GGPO with that. If you gonna mention a pre XI KoF: make it 98 or bust. Still, I second XI.

…that went well.

flow charts are enabled

blah, blah, blah, screw you motherfuckers and your elitist nonsense.

–kof–
kofxi should really be the main for KOF
we can always make a tournment before T8 to see the result

wts wrong for having a tournement with new games? why do we have to move so slow becuz the arcade aren’t keeping up to date? if we have to play old games every T tournament we will always fall behind

kofxi was out since 05, but we have to make other version as main just becuz our local arcade aren’t doing shit for us?

:rofl: You tell em Herb :rofl:

Please note, if people are serious about having KOF XI at T8, the game must still meet the 16 player requirement. I personally don’t feel this game will get anywhere close to that mark. I’d really like people who are definitely entering to post up so we can project some numbers for it.

It was already agreed between Stephen and I that Slash will be the main GG game at T8. The fact of the matter is that not everyone will have ready access to AC, regardless of the six weeks between release and T8. Slash is the game most have practiced on and thus will be the main game. Accent Core will still be a side game and there’s nothing stopping every GG/ player from entering that too.

I’m DOWN… for KoF XI and Virtua Fighter 5.

…that went well.

also down for KoF XI

and excel macros.

you need to find someone more scrubby than you in order to talk mad shit. I started talking mad shit soon after I met justin. :rofl:

For real, oh man, there are people much worse than me. They hide in shadows somewhere.

…and if by the off chance XI doesn’t make the 16 player requirement, I’d be glad to include it as side tournament I’d run at T8. (I was already planning to, anyway.)

it only counts when they join srk and post.

Stop making up rules, noobles.

…that went well? =/

I lol’d. :lol:

Yeah I’d have to agree with the better choice being to sponsor GGXX/ as the main attraction over AC.

…no, fuck you. You can’t spell. Get your own sandwich.

Justin, make with the location already hahahaha.

…that went well.

-Really hard decision here. I myself would like it to be AC, however, many people wont have access to it. Even if i were to assume everybody gets it on release date (may 31st), 1 and a half month to learn AC may or may not be enough depending on how hardcore the person practices. And I would guess that once a person gets a hold of AC, its unlikely they’ll want to spend serious time on slash again, after all, why play an old outdated game?
-For myself, if AC was available, i would be unwilling to spend time to learn my update my main character for AC, then play slash with it, so i may just end up just training my main character for AC, then pick someone that i have a decent knowledge about for slash. Im not sure about others on this one tho. but if people do think like this, then the tournament would be pointless if we dont use our best character. Theres a big difference between AC and slash for all characters so its quite hard to switch between games and play at our best consistently.
-Making AC the main tournament is the more “professional” thing since its the most updated game. Making slash is more “considerate” since more people has access.
-I think its still to early to say for sure whether AC or / should be made the main event for ggxx. Console release dates can change (for better or worse), more arcades may start importing AC, allowing more players to have access to it before T8 and practice. Posting slash/AC main now may attract or discourage players from coming, depending on which one they like.

Hell why do i always end up making huge posts, whatever, they’re all things that i THINK should be considered?

Conclusion:
I’d like AC to be main and slash to be side but if majority of players prefer slash, then slash should be main. Whatever’s better for the majority.

This is siq, DD. Bring it. I want to see it.

…that went well.

Yeah, and them I’m stuck with a $700 paperweight after the tourney.

Lol Stephen made a logo for himself.

…wait a sec. DG…I saw that Sony Style artwork at Humber! That was damn good too. How much is that for XI now so far?

…that went well.
