The King of Fighters: NeoWave Thread!

Current Fighting Games Fighting Game Discussion
81

Well if you guys wanna discuss NW strats etc I’m game…I love Neo Wave…still playing it hardcore nearly one year later…

You can do it here or at Guardcrush.net which I am updating the NW section today complete with the full tier list based on all grooves and a great link for everyone!!:rock: :tup:

The lagging in Angel combos is yet another thing…if you see a glitch vid on a site (forgot it) it shows just that-lagging slow-mo Angel glitch combos…so it may just be a glitch…but if you have the CD version it tends to slow down versus the DVD version.

82

Funny, I should get my Atomiswave board and Neowave (that I got for 95$) this week…

I mainly wanted the board for HnK, but hey, I have Neowave now, playable in VGA :slight_smile:

83

I was contemplating buying a cheap X-Box for NeoWave and the 02/03 collection, but figured that is would be a waste of monye as my PS2 will soon be improt friendly.

84

Damnit, they didn’t get it today

They said to come by Tommorow

Stupid Gamestop!!!

85

any links to matches? im tring to learn seth/saisyu/goro/normal chris any one got any juice on these chars

86

Saisyu…goes as follows:

  1. Super-jump short-hop C
  2. C, qcf+C
  3. dp+A

That’s all you need to know. Especially the first one. His jumping C has more priority than…almost anything; good damage too.

87

To add for Saisyu its Hyperhop C, HH D, or HH b to cross up…add in his Stand C to forward+A to super and you got some very potent stuff!!!

Oh theres some things that beat Saisyus jump C I assure you…but yeah as a whole yeah you are right.

Check that link I posted in guardcrush.net…it will link you to some places that may have match vids…

88

Well, while I’m waiting on this I might as well read up on some strats. Could anybody help me out with improving my Geese (Although I guess it’s technically learning Geese even though I play him in other games)? I’ve been trying to learn him in things like CvS2 and KoF96 as well as some others, but I just can’t seem to get anything solid going on. I’m entirely inconsistent and lacking in effective tactics and it kind of bothers me. Also, I’m thinking of learning Guard Break mode due to having Just defense and it just seems to be more of my style, would that be good for Geese or should I go for something else? Sorry about all the questions, but compared to most people here I’m rather scrubby, especially in SNK fighters.

Edit: After looking at the tier lists over at Guard Crush it seems like my entire planned team (Geese, Terry, Robert) generally benefit the most from Super Cancel mode. That takes care of that I suppose.

89

is there a difference between jump, super jump, low jump, and super low jump? (besides the height obviously)

In CvS2 there is a bit of frame recovery after a low jump so you couldn’t spam attacks and i want to know if the same applies to KOF.

90

Improving your Geese…hahhaa…yes Young Geese is hands down my best character…for starts look at the Other Games thread for starter Geese stuff.

Also I’ll lend to helping all of you out with Geese by posting good Geese stuff from Gamefaqs for starters at Guard crush so get ready.

Ill give you starts at SRK- Geeses best groove hands down is SC Mode…Why?

He has no super cancels. BUT…he doesn’t need them.

He has the best super in the game arguably…Deadly Rave…it is the ultimate Anti Air and punisher…and you start with three of them…

Oh boy about the difference between the jumps…yes there is a difference…dont think of KOF jumps in terms of CVS2…they are not really close…CVS2 got it all wrong with the jumps…they narrowed it down to 2 jumps instead of 4.

In KoF you have the following-
1.Short jump
2.HyperHop
3.Super Jump
4.Normal Jump

HyperHop is the best option of the three and what you see 95% of the time in match vids of any high level KOF(The short jump with Shadows). HyperHop (HH) does not exist in CVS2 and the fact that it doesn’t pissed me off about the game to be blunt.

HH happens by either running and short jumping or lightly tapping superjump forward or backwards (in other words down to upback or down to up-forward)

This makes your moves have more priority than a short jump…which if you get a short jump move vs. a HH move the HH move will win 99% of the time.

Geese Three-part starter section at GuardCrush is up and complete…ask me any questions as I have edited the parts some…and will continue to add more of my flavor/touches/edits to it.

My 3 part Geese stuff should answer all your Geese qs…if not ask me…I been playing him for abut a year now…and like I said he is my best character hands down…perfect for OCVing people if you master him…

I found this at Game Crazy yesterday and I got their last copy.

I’m really surprised this game didn’t go anyplace competitively as it is really good. It reminds me a lot of 2002 the system select really adds some depth to the game. I’ve found nothing extremely broken in it yet. Hopefully since the game has a US release it might get picked up and some tourneys going for it

92

Well, it sounds like I should buy this before XI comes out.
I ned a KoF fix, god-dammit!

93

Thats weird I called EB, and they told me neo wave was cancelled?

94

Wait, wait, this game comes with a hat?

95

Thanks Dark Geese, that should help out a lot. Thankfully I found out my copy of Neowave has shipped today along with the free Terry hat (Shwing!). That means I should get the game by friday. I can hardly wait. goes off to play CvS2 to kill time

96

On the Gamestop and EB site, it said if you pre-order NeoWave, you get a free Terry hat.

I asked the guy at Gamestop if it was happening in stores, he said he didn’t knew, but if it list it on the site, they might get it in the store too.

That game better be in today.

97

Do any of u know if its backwards compatiple with the 360?

98

I just got the hat, and must say it didn’t live up to what I was expecting… but then again it was free, so I shouldn’t have high hopes to begin with.
The front of it looks akward and it is that horrid trucker style cap.
here are some pics

I just went to Gamestop to pick up my copy, and the worker said they just got an e-mail saying they will not be caring Neowave at all!!!

He was pissed off too, since he was a fan and wanted that Terry hat.
So he refunded my 5 dollars.

I just ordered it from Gamestop.com with the free Terry hat they showed.
So I have to wait 7 days more untill I get it:arazz:

Sure no thing…glad I could help you out with the Geese stuff…there is nothing really super broken about the game as a whole…it corrects many things and does a good job of it…but…

Vanessas big combo in 2k2 is now EASIER…you dont even need the f+a anymore…just use (st. Cx2 to HCF+Cxxteleport with b) until meter runs out.

But despite all this she aint the same…some things of hers have obviously been toned down…

Daimon has a new sick Sc trap which is nigh unavoidable…even if you roll…
