Yeah man I hear you that sucks…us SNKers in the US are few and far inbetween…competition in the states is hard to find…I’m lucky I have some good old buddies that come to play at my place and play…in NY you dont have anyone??? Maybe in that city but I’m sure some people there play…maybe even the Almighty Wong plays it…(hell he played KOF2k3 and won a tourney for it KNOW THAT MUCH WITH DUO LON/KIM and someone else…)

King Lion(SHIN-the boss) will give you quite a battle…hehehe

And Goodmans monkey spirit thing looks badass in the game…no way they couldve done it on the old hardware…NO WAY…

342

What’s so special about “Purple” Nakoruru?

343

The closest place I can go where I could possibly find some gamers is maybe in Ithaca. I think I may of come across a few SRK members that were from around the Itaca area, but I don’t remember. XD

Oi if only Mame could emulate Atomswave… >_>

I’ll probably end up buying at least NGBC or Tenka though. It’ll be worth the practice to get ahead of the game before they hit the Xbox/Xbox360. XD

344

Thats what I wonder too…with her and Rera being in the game, and being able to play the damn wolf(lol) I wonder…maybe she has exactly the SSIII Bust Nakoruru move list or something…I havent had much time to research on it…but I will know soon enough I can assure you…

I hope Rasetsu Galford doesnt have that broken ass 5 hit infinite from SSIV…hahahahha the one that he literally puts the weapon down to do…

HAHAHAHA…sheer punishment.

Another huge thing…from match vid analysis I dont see way too much difference from Yumeji and Ukyo…same normals from SSV(and some specials dammit), safe as hell, same new move that hits three times max and is safe, all her morphs got taken out, she has some “fake morph move” and super, practically the same damn person and THEY BOTH ARE TOP TIER…for some reasons I just stated…
From some of the latest match vids Genan can best be described as “Vega” now…the wall dive shit he has is abused.

And I wanna do research as to why Sieger is not top tier…goddamn he’s safe on some shit too…I mean I see full screen lunge arm and can’t be punished…his new combo looks deadly but if whiffed you’re fucked. Also abusing the big man Splash shit like Zangief and for him been in since SSII, that to the big ass combo he has where he taunts at the end…brutal… then zone with the Arms…sick…great for trapping and PERFECT FOR TICK DAMAGE.

Iroha…OMFG…shes my new tourney girl…hahahaha(Sheer dominance and control of the air)

Kazuki got beefed up with his combo of doom that can link to his fire pillar super…reason I think he is high tier.

And I’ve seen enough in the match vids to get why Amakusa is tops.

Zankuro is tops for the same shit in SSIII/IV…POWER AND PRIORITY…
Shizumaru seems to be tops based off his damn umbrella float cancel…which is DEADLY FOR MIXUPS APPARENTLY…

Mina…hahaha does anything need to be said about that? If anything this game HELPS HER DAMAGE…bc the damage in these AW games as a whole is reduced…check NeoWave, NGBC, all the damage is dramatically reduced.

Case in point, comparing 2002 to NeoWave super combos from 2002 in NeoWave do less damage…I guess the “heat button” is a way to repair this…

K Groove anyone???

What I dont get is how Charlotte is low tier…she’s been high tier in EVERY SS GAME SHE’S BEEN IN…for the same shit…safeness and FUCKING POKES…she looks the same in the vids…I have to play with her for better analysis.

Also in this game from the latest match vids I have noticed some form of parry exist…

(NO FUCKERS NOT DEFLECT I KNOW WHAT THAT SHIT IS)

Stuff is literally absorbed and there is a blue shadow behind you…

As you can see I’ve been busy with this game…lol

345

Is the damage really reduced or is it just that the lifebar length is shorter? I thought that was the case with Neo Wave. XD

346

I’ll be getting the game for sure thank god for mod ps2s :slight_smile:

347

The damage is reduced…in NeoWave I’ve compared and contrasted…damage is reduced as a whole…

And all bosses thus far in AW ports have their damage reduced…

Playable NW Geese, NW O. Rugal, Neo Dio,Goodman, King Lion, Mizuchi all have their damage reduced dramatically compared to their CPU AI counterparts…

I like this…this makes them TOURNAMENT ELIGIBLE.

I wonder if the GAROU tourney results (Kain and Grant being playable) urged SNK to do this…

Because in 2002 and others on the old hardware YOU KNOW the boss characters would be banned…2002 Rugal and Neo Wave Rugal are SOOOOO NOT THE SAME…
If anyone begs to differ I would be more than happy to explain…

Hahaha…with all this O. And N. discussion here I feel like I’m in the ST thread…

O.Sagat vs. N. Sagat,
"O. 2002 O. Rugal vs. “N"W O.Rugal” where NW O.Rugal is “SERIOUSLY NERFED” lol… NO God like speed Tiger Shots I mean KAISER WAVES and his “priority is seriously nerfed”…lol

348

Is this game still using 24 bit Neo Geo graphics on a 128 bit system? (I havent seen the game yet) If so, I’m definitely gonna pass on this. It’s 2006, theres no excuse for 1988 graphics if thats the case.

349

Nope…all their AW titles use different graphics…Tenkas looks really nice…NeoWave is really the only one where the sprites AINT EVEN TOUCHED UP…(all of them)

Tenka and Battle Coliseum have the sprites touched up and look cleaner…

Tenka looks very nice…

and IMO as does NGBC…they are not just “tests” for the hardware as NeoWave was…

350

now after watching the new nicotine matches I wanna play as him. OH man so awesome.

351

Yeah I know…he rocks with his launcher combo…good for setups and still has his projectiles from SSII, and you saw the one where he fought Charlotte right??? Believe this…both HIM AND CHARLOTTE ARE LOW TIER!!!

I think Nicotines damage (as in he takes damage not to well) has something to do with it.

In that same vid Charlotte hit him with a Crossover AB attack,cr.a/b, to slide Special and on poor Nico=40% damage.

But yeah he looks like fun!!!

352

Ok, so games I should get are SStenka, NGBC(Im getting this today I think). Is this all? What other fighters have been released lately? Is that new metal slug out for ps2 yet? Also, my ps2 is modded, I can play jap games on it right? My kof MI is japanese :frowning:

353

MSlug 5/(6 I think with Ralf and Clark??) isnt out yet for PS2 I dont think…thats about it for right now that I should think…if you get those two you should be fine…you already have the Rumblefish right???

354

Nah, I never got a chance to play those games. Mslug 6 is out for arcades though right, and its on the atomis wave format right?

355

Sieger’s problem is all of his mix-ups are too high risk. First of all, his full screen lunge arm isn’t safe, any character with a full screen projectile or lunge-type attack can punish it, which is like 90% of the cast. It’s safe against a select few characters–sometimes it can be used successfully as a meaty attack for chip damage. Anyway, Sieger’s mixup involves going in at you with an overhead or a slide to air combo. It’s hard to block sometimes, but if you block any of it, free combo. The risk is typically not in his favor.

The reason Kazuki is good is because he has the best Ten combo starter in the game. It has the best range out of any of them, and if it hits you get to combo BBC into his Fire grab. Each of Kazuki’s moves have four levels, the weakest can be done without any fire but successfully powerful moves require the fireball next to him to be lit up bigger. With a fully charged fire (only takes three charges to be full) you can combo A+B, BBC level 4 fire grab for 50% damage. You typically get two safe fire-build ups off a knockdown, so yeah, it’s pretty easy to charge. The thing that makes Kazuki’s A+B in Ten so great is that you can punish so much stuff with it. It will connect after blocking almost any character’s overhead, special move, or heavy weapon attack.

Amakusa’s Rengoku (flaming ball from air) is so good that you basically have to use Ten against him to stand a chance. In other grooves, if you successfully block it the most damage you can get is a throw but in Ten you can connect an A+B combo starter so it isn’t worth doing random Rengoku. However, since you have control over the Rengoku, you can react to how your opponent is blocking and connect it very consistently no matter what. However, it’s too risky to do against a Ten spirits user, so in that case you only do Rengoku after you land a super (since they can’t A+B combo starter without their weapon).

That is one of the “Ken” spirit’s special abilities. Forward or Backward + E button puts a shadow beneath you, Down + E button puts a shadow above you, and E button by itself puts a shadow in front of you. If an attack hits the shadow, the shadow absorbs the attack and you get a small frame advantage (usually enough to land a short or jab into super, or just super by itself). Ken seems to be the best overall groove right now because of the ability to store a super, the speed at which the meter builds, and the ability to parry/get guaranteed hits where you can’t normally.

356

Excellent…thanks a lot Fubarduck…addressed many of my concerns!!!
Yeah I knew his Rengoku was Crossup, I didnt think they were spamming it like noobs…

To Mystic :Yessir it(MS6) is on the AW format…I wouldnt worry thought we will get it soon enough…and all of this is bc Sammy is already ditching the AW for a like Naomi board…so that means ever better graphics for SNK in the future…thats why all this shit IMO is being released so soon after the arcade release…

Unless SNK is gonna pull a Namco-“NeoGeo Battle Coliseum: DARK RESSURECTION IGNIZ RETURNS!!!” lol

357

Naomi board, will most likely mean 3d backgrounds, IE mvc2 cvs2. I dont think its a good idea, besides like making the supers more cool looking.

358

Yeah I agree but in the end we will see…but yes you do have good points…bc my first thought was MVC2…lol

359

Pretty graphics is nice, but I wish they would draw some damn blood.

360

Oh boy…oh boy oh boy…takes a deep breath Man I know you are not like some guy named ABSTER on the Neo-Geo.com forums site…geez…he spent like the whole SST thread ARGUING about the lack of blood and how he wont even PLAY THE DAMN GAME BC IT DOESNT HAVE BLOOD…lol

But I figure you aint like that for sure…lol
