SVC was a very unusual situation much like CFE, SNK has redeemed themselvs since that time so I don’t think its worth bringing up. Anyhow on to this game…well what more can be said. Easily the best looking 2D fighter i’ve ever seen and I thought 3s was badass.The small character roster doesn’t bother me, Id much rather prefer a game with a completly viable roster as opposed to something with a large amount of characters with lopsided balance like cvs2 or mvc2.
I personally take comfort in the fact that anybody that had a girl touch their penis grew out of the “my game is better your game” phase.
As would I, but KoF 98UM and 2k2 had large and viable rosters.
And I thought CvS2 was pretty balanced. Sure you you see plenty of Sagats, Blankas, and A-Saks but most of the cast sees play in high level fights.
This game better get a lot of Test Locations like NGBC did!
NGBC turned out great because of the large amount of Test Locations it had, even though there were S tier characters, all characters were playable and even tourney winners had different characters they won with, not all Mr. Big or Marco.
Look what happened to XI, little Test Locations = Overpowered Gato and Kula, and every player I face has to have Gato and Kula on their team, GAY :arazz:
Coliseum’s balance wasn’t any better then XI. Kim ended up dominating that game, even more then those two mentioned. Also both games suffered from a ton of chars that were 3s Sean tier.
Then again nearly all 2d fighters have significant balance problems.
this game needs some hitstop
Oh
yeah… I forgot about her origin. Meh, I hate that look on her. Her 95 was great.
Leona still looks bad ass. Can’t change her at all. I like how those moves come out. :wgrin:
…uh mai *is *high res. Didn’t you see her?

I wouldn’t worry about roster at this point. 13 will make up for it. It will be the Dream Match, btw.

tag worked well for SNK’s KoF series. Almost as seamless as TTT or Dead Or Alive 2’s tag system. 2003 especially.

Arc makes GG. Sammy publishes it.

The only thing that bothers me at this moment is the clashing. That shit is a lazy way to deal with priorities and has no place in KOF. But if they are going to leave it in, they at least have to make it less retarded.
Other than that, this looks quite good.
gotta love Shens new throw, reminds me of 3s makoto…which is good
I miss leona’s military issue short shorts.
3S is 10 years old. . .
No you dont.
Finally, some videos that are longer than a couple of minutes. Hot!
Agreed.
10 years indeed, but it’s still as much work to do thoose quality sprites as it was 10 years ago, and it will be still stay that hard in the future.
…and it also doesn’t seems like, that hand drawn cartoon/anime style will ever be outdated.
I don’t get it either; its an obvious compliment. You don’t use words like “epitome” otherwise. Who cares if 3S is 10 years old? Its still pretty much the pinnacle of animation in 2D games (or fighters at least). I mean its not like there’s been some technological advancement that makes hand-drawing frames that much easier now than it was before.
3S is actually so well animated, that it’s rare to see something similar even in a cartoon (or anime). Expect it’s low resolution, it doesn’t seems outdated.
3S is not the epitome of anything animated, besides fighters.
If someone told me my game looked like a 10 year old game, but bigger, I wouldn’t be all that thrilled.
