We need more KOF XII players in Seattle

So did anybody buy this game yet? I really really hope Mature and Elizabeth weren’t the only additional console characters they added…

I heard it wasn’t out till the 29th? Ill look into it tonight after work, and ill buy it if it has been released.

The game is already out. Billy just got it

I did buy it.

Mature and Betty is it.

It’s okay tho. Cause Betty is hella raw.

She’s easy high tier.

They didn’t list 2 of her moves.

Her movelist is like…

qcf+P-Overpowered slap attack that in CC combos does way too much damage. Can be used as a Ghetto AA. C version is 2 hits and moves her a bit forward. Don’t see the use of the C version tho really. You can juggle stuff from it.
qcf+K-Kinda a dandy step. Unsure what it is used for other than to cancel sweep into during a CC combo midscreen.
qcb+K-Another Dandy step. Cept backwards. I hope it’s invincible or something.
B+D-Dodge. Haven’t tested it too much.
hcb,f+P-For some reason she has one of the best grabs in the game. Combos easy, great range and does good damage.
qcfqcf+P-Her Benimaru wannabe super. You can juggle after it for even more damage.

Her Corner damage is insane.

Mature is the other way around.

It feels like her throw range is slightly bigger than normal. But that just might be me imaging things. She only has 2 specials that I can find thus far.

qcb+K-Iori’s running slash. It’s like the same move but slightly worse.
dp+P-Front flip. Hit punch again to throw out an attack. Has cool cross up gimmicks she can do with it. Still fairly basic.
Her super is the Rugal one.

She seems very low damage overall. But her mix ups seem like they might be up there for the best.

Online… It’s the same damn thing as BB’s prepatch and they are about to patch it to make it better.

So basically whoever Arc bought their netcode from SNK bought it too.

That is gross. Out of everybody they could’ve possibly added from the KOF universe they only added Mature and Elizabeth? Good shit SNK.

Believe it when I see it.

KOF98UM and Garou had terrible netcode too, KOFXII makes three strikes.

98UM and Garou are like x20 worse than this. It’s still unacceptable tho. I definitely get the point. BB was bad before the patch too tho. I’m going to give it time. Maybe they’ll wise up and fix it. Wishful thinking.

In their defense, Elizabeth is pretty tight.

Still no excuse for a lack of K’, fuck that noise!

cristian had it right, this game is weak nigga and you are too if you play it ahahahaha j/k guys i havent even played it yet…i passed it up the last 5 times i went to gw to play tekken so im the gross one

The Taiwanese player is pretty buff. He’ll give you a two character lead and then scrap the fuck out of you with Kyo. He should me a nice hit-into-throw combo with Raiden that does a good chunk of damage.

This game made kinda like SFIV more since you don’t need to time your shit like you do in XII, haha.

So Vince where did you pick this up already? I’m gonna hit up Fred Meyers before work and then BestBuy tomorrow if I don’t get it today.

Hey Nate (or anyone else who knows how to play this) can you teach me how to play this game before NWM? :china:

EDIT: NVM I HATE THIS GAME…

There’s something wrong, here…

Wait, what the fuck is up with the thread title? WTF?
Everybody knows exactly what the thread title SHOULD have been.

Nooooooo! Why yoo h8?

Dear shadowless. I had that conversation with nolander already! It very much seems like kof12 is hit or miss completely anyways, so if i attempt to limit it to just seattle this thread would be dead by now.

edit: if zach wants to change the title to what it SHOULD of been, I don’t mind.
I don’t think I have the power to do it,

I can usually hype over KoF, and I gotta say after a couple of plays at GW I’m really not feeling this game. It’s so slow. Is there a speed setting for the console version?

I’m now finally falling asleep, Vince just left.

Yea… The Game is extremely hit or miss. A lot of fun tho. Me and Nate figured out the best CC combos for a couple characters. That was a fun session tho. Stupid Kim.

If you or Vince could actually explain this game to me in person someday before NWM maybe I’ll come to like it, but for now it makes no sense and I hate it, lol.

I’m with Paul here. From what I’ve played, it just feels half-assed. Tons of specials are gone, replaced by a funky dial-a-combo CC system, normal priority seems totally weird even compared to old KoF games, and special properties on what were great moves before are just gone now, totally ruining some characters. In short, it’s so different from previous KoF iterations and other 2d fighters in general that it feels totally alien to me, and I can’t really enjoy it.

AND BENIMARU CAN’T SPIN ON HIS HEAD!!!

It just isn’t KoF without hairstand spins. =/
