The 2nd KOFXII Thread (debuting at AM Show in September)

SRK hates so we are never dissapointed.

oooh didnt notice that you could get a cc of of normals.

Momotaro:

LOL,talk about deja vu.This deadlock is the exact thing that happened to SF4.
Gameplay vids are released and the usual rabbling occurs.Then when its announced that the game is coming out sooner that expected the rabble turns into rants and flaming from tourney players (no offense) and so-called fanboys.

But here’s where it gets interesting.The game is released and finally available to fans to try it out.Some people like it,some people hate it,whoop de freakin do!Months later after the heat dies off its released on console.Now critics get to try and review based of their opinion(like it really matters,except for F.Yagami)and fans and tournament players have it in their hands.What’s the point of this long post you say?The point is that the ones who say that they dont like the game(for their own reasons,wont go into detail) will eventually turn the left cheek and play the game.I mean look at Brawl,BlazBlue and SF4.

Now disagree,flame me,spam me if u want!I DONT CARE!But at some point u have to agree that part of what i said is true.All in all,KOF XII looks good and the CC system doesnt seem that bat…AT THE TIME!

P.S. One word describes the Fighting Game Community as a whole…IRONY!

I’d like to introduce you to the space bar. Use of this key might actually make people care about your already stupid view.

DaFeetLee · December 3, 2008, 7:57am

Well. I see spaces. Made by a space bar.

Turbovec · December 3, 2008, 8:14am

lol, I’m just being a jerk. Not using spaces between sentences always annoyed the hell out of me though. :razz:

Momotaro · December 3, 2008, 8:16am

I don’t expect people to care about my two cents. It’s just that some gamers -not all of em- are like that. And Turbovec I’m SORRY if I made a couple of errors in my post, but you have no right to call my view stupid.

Shinjojin · December 3, 2008, 9:16am

Wow, 5 pages of bitching over a freaking system thats not even completed yet. Get a grip, people! :rolleyes:

In case you all have forgotten, this game comes out in April, which is four months from now, FOUR DAMN MONTHS!!! That’s plenty of time for SNK to do a lot of loketests so they can fix the hell out of the mechanics in the game until then. So why don’t we just wait until the complete game is out first BEFORE we make any final judgments, OK?

Anyways, more vids:

Wasn’t clashing also suppose to hurt the person who is using it as a defense?

Does anyone agree that Kyo’s flame effects are looking better, now?

With Clark being HUGE now, it makes me want Shermie back even more… Her and/or Mary.
And if Mary comes back in HD, I say she needs her taunt to be the Belt Hula taunt she has back in 98!

MezzoForte · December 3, 2008, 10:11am

I don’t think any of the fire effects are perfected or fully implemented. It still appears if the flames have no transparency at all, as evidenced by the harsh dark spots that follow. They look nice as they are, but I have a feeling that they’ll look even nicer in the coming months. Speaking of the coming months, give it time people.

comoesa · December 3, 2008, 10:14am

So this is what Third Strike HD Remix would look like…

Riot.EXE · December 3, 2008, 10:30am

Maybe for another dream match, but storyline wise, Shermie is dead. Her team only had one Canon game and that was 1997.

Good fucking god, all this bitchery over something that isn’t done yet…we’re getting a new fighting game in a genre that is struggling to stay alive (thankfully, not as much as Shoot-em-ups/Shmups) and y’all gotta be ungrateful scamps. If it legitimately sucks, we will know when we play it…until then, shut the fuck up and wait. Seriously…it’s like “OH MY GOD, YOU CHANGED SOMETHING! HOW DARE YOU TRY TO KEEP THINGS FRESH! I WANT THE SAME GAME BUT PRETTIER!” (that game in question would now be Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix…but y’all probably bitched about that too.)

For everyone that is being patient and not bitching about the new KoF…I salute you and give you Respect Knuckles for life.

c001357 · December 3, 2008, 4:43pm

I guess it’s because we care.

arstal · December 3, 2008, 4:46pm

great. Now people are whining about whining. Some people here do know their KOF (not many, but a few)- and they can see the potential problems. We don’t need people telling us not to point out potential problems. Yeah, I complain about SNK shit not getting love when it’s good- but newsflash: SNK shit is rarely good. When they get it right it’s awesome, but they’re like the Adam Dunn of fighting game makers- they’ll hit home runs, but they strike out most of the time and hit about .220, and look ugly in the process.

Yeah, “This game is going to suck for sure. I won’t play it” is one thing. “These are big problems, I won’t be surprised if the game sucks” is another. If you want fanboyism about SNK, you picked the wrong site. Go pick one of the SNK fanboy forums. (Not going after anyone in here specifically with that)

Most people on SRK are tourney vets who can smell BS when they see it. Yes, the genre doesn’t get a lot of good games, but we already HAVE some good games. Having a bad game in there isn’t going to help things out.

great post. some dumb asses just dont get it. we whine BECAUSE we care and want the best game possible. i mean wtf are these guys thinking? we whine because we hate the game and want it to fail? or because we dont get enough attention otherwise?

any of you morons ever wonder how they improved newer games over older games? because they change it accordingly to the fans wishes and took out BS that might ruin a game. ive had a neo since begin 90’s, and have played kof competetivelly since the first kof came out. why would i need to bash a series i love?

also, i bashed the SS series a lot, why? cause it used to be my favorite series ever, they just fucked it up. and honestly, most of us dont want something like that to happen to kof. especially now that snkp is pouring all their money in to this game. another reason we DONT want it to fail. only thing we CAN do is point out the things we think are wrong with the game. wtf is wrong with that?

Hate to say it but MUSOLINI & arstal are right. Guess I couldn’t say much because I’ve just recently got into KOF.

c001357 · December 3, 2008, 5:26pm

I think autoguard moves would be a great counter to the clashing feature. :wonder:

Return_of_Shiki · December 3, 2008, 5:42pm

The problem isn’t so much the complaining but the people who are doing the complaining.
Namely, people like you.

We’ve known about clashing, etc. for quite some time now, and yet only recently you’ve started complaining about it when just before you were riding SNK’s nuts because XII wasn’t going to be like XI.

Shameless hypocrite, myopic idiot, or both? You decide.
The SNK community is full of more shit than Rosie O’ Donnell’s colon.

3:30 and 3:53 are interesting.

MUSOLINI · December 3, 2008, 6:26pm

shit eye, what can i say? you got shitty eyes, thats what i do know.

now for your points mr dumb ass. first of, i aint riding shit moron. now, if you actually knew how to read you wouldnt even need to post bullshit like this. we got rid of strikers, tags, armour mode and bc mode, and now we get CC in return. you know, the kind of bullshit people LIKE YOU enjoy.

just cause we like certain things in a game, doesnt mean we need to lift that game to new hights in all areas. there where things XII did that where a good descision IMO, now theres like 2 things about the game that i might not like. and your saying, wtf are you saying exactly moron…? cause like usually, you dont make a lot of fucking sense. but whats new?

kyored · December 3, 2008, 7:07pm

MUSOLINI & arstal had to give you guys rep. I’m a old kof vet and the last few pages (besides the vids) are nothing but fanboy bs. People just throw out the fact the this game is on a new system hardware which means :(less characters , less/no story, and new gameplay formula) cause they’re creating it from scratch.

this is the same thing they did when they moved form MVS hardware to Atomiswave

kof neowave was the 1st (same as XII) then later on you’ll get a game like kof XI next.

Wellman · December 3, 2008, 8:44pm

Shit can we just focus on XII?

It ain’t likely folk will change their minds about tags at this point wherever they stand on the argument. The fact is SNK switched back to this method so complaining about isn’t going to help, especially with this game in which SNKP is essentially building a 2D fighting game from scratch for the first time in over a decade. So lets focus on what we have here and afterward compare how it will compare to previous games.
