Even tho Nokato has a bit of an aggressive tone, I agree with pretty much everything he has said.
I heard it’s not doing well there either because of the cabinet pricing. But haven’t talked about it in months so dunno if it picked up.
So…because I don’t want KOFXII to look like SF4 there’s a problem? When you make a thread, people have a right to express their opinion–if you want to take it out of context fine–but seriously the only people who cry and whine about shit NOT being 3-D are Americans. I don’t see why KOFXII needs to have over-rendered, over-exaggerated models, clunky, and even slower gameplay to appease to people who can’t appreciate the game as is.
So yeah, I got angry because people feel that everything needs to look shitty. Not once did I say Japanese people were better than Americans–I simply said that when it comes to games in terms of aesthetics–Americans always cry and moan because shit isn’t latest next gen 3-D bullshit while other countries are more accepting to sincere projects.
You can go ahead and take what I say the wrong way all you want–don’t get mad at me because I don’t agree with making the game shitty by going 2.5D.
People should learn how to appreciate something good without making it look like shit. You want an American game, go play something else.
The SF4 vs KOF argument is not really relevent IMO, KOF12 has the better gameplay IMO but Capcom was smart in how they marketted SF4. Granted, I do agree that SF4 has ugly visuals in addition to being a boring game to play…but they they targetted the largest consumer base and it has been paying off.
it’s obvious you are some kind of 3rd rate illustrator and the shift to 3d is jeopardizing your future career. But it is no reason to hate on 3d. 3d is the way of the future and unless the economy picks up fast, You’d have to be retarded to invest that much money into drawing sprites. AT THE END OF THE DAY it’s all about the bottom line. These new kids just getting out of college wondering why nobody cares about their ideas need to understand, Art is dead. 3d is cheaper and more versatile. Those sprites could have been done in 3d easily. Look at the God Of War promo shots, they are all real time rendered, not pixel art.
I don’t know why people keep comparing my 2.5 idea with tekken or whatever the fuck. It’s supposed to look like TvC and TvC looks “badass” imagine if it were developed for the PS3 rather than the wii…
as for you guys neg repping me, must be nice to do it anonymously you pussies
except you projectj you put your name in the rep so you have balls (albeit little mincey faggot balls)
- If I negged you, you would know.
- I’m not some 3rd rate illustrator and I’m in the Sequential Art field–so I’m not crying because 3D makes more money. Who gives a fuck about it being simple and easy it looks like shit. And if it looks like shit, people shouldn’t be so quick to love it. TVC looks wooden, and terrible as well and would’ve looked better if it were hand-drawn. Just because you can’t appreciate hand-drawn doesn’t mean that everyone should follow suit with you.
You treat art like a used car salesman.
cool post.
I love Garou and SFIII is a great looking game (so is martial masters)
but it’s finished, 2d is done. It had the last 20 years of gaming by the balls. It’s time to move on to better things (like 2.5d)
speaking of mexico
didn’t they make that badass neo geo Rage of the Dragons
another great 2d game.
I’d rather have a KOF XII with 10 characters but that each character had twice as many sprites, if you’re not going to go 3d. I’d be happier that way.
That’s just me.
If that were true then explain successful sales on BB? Looks like KOF is achieving the same thing. It might be dead to your ignorant ass but not to the fighter fan and those that like good games.
Just cause you discovered the fighting genre last week doesnt make you right.
hedonist:
So under that logic…People shouldn’t paint by hand anymore–because of Photoshop. People shouldn’t make home cooked meals because of the TV Dinner.
Are you fucking retarded? Who cares how OLD something is–if its still workable then you should use it. Why should it matter how old it is–hand drawn animation still looks better in most cases than terrible half-assed 3-D movies and I prefer it over the crap that people go to the movies to see.
Studios like Studio 4C, Madhouse, Ghibli, Gainax–they STILL do things hand-drawn and it trumps the 3-D talking movie bullshit, or other crap people clamor over. It doesn’t matter if something has been around for a while–you don’t treat a particular facet of art like a goddamned fashion trend.
Fucking 09’ers. Jeez.
i dont know why, but i have the strong feeling that hedonist thinks that Twilight is the hot sauce, and that all the movies should made like that from now on, cuz is successful, and everyone likes it , so its the future 
why are you still here
go make yourself a tv dinner
@hecatom
coming from someone who thinks dark knight is the hot sauce. god that fucking movie was lame- a 2 1/2 hour borefest with a butchered story
but hey it got 90% on rotten tomatoes, so it must be good!
@project
BB is successful not because of it’s 2d but because it’s a great innovative fighting game. Not a stripped down shell of one.
KOF XII used the traditional method which means upscaling and make pixles easly visible. KOF XII sprites are 4 times the size of pervious KOF sprites which makes them 340x496. the Neo Geo had a display resolution of 320x224 four times that is 1280x896. Blazblue zooms out so the pixles aren’t visible.
SF3 Ryu sprite is 78x111 upscaled that by 2 and you get 156x222, upscaled it by 3 and you get 234x333.
this is a update from my pervious post. Blazblue’s coloring method combine with zooming out makes the pixles less visible. Blazblue blue is upscaled then zoomout.
I seriously hate people like you. I seriously…fucking…do.
You’re new generation asshole and you don’t appreciate shit.
The End.I thought KOFXII would be upscaled then zoomed out but when I saw the zoom I realized it’s the other way around and pretty much lost SNK my $60.
Nice, living up to that 09ers rep.
good… an asian hater, nothing out of the ordinary there. You hate Americans so much move somewhere else you douche.
the end.
Fuck you, you unintelligent, misinformed bitch.
I actually do plan on moving out of the States --just so I don’t have to dealing with artless, shameless fucks just like you. Its people like you that have made me want to leave here anyway.
I’m a douche because I like hand drawn sprites over 3-D bullshit…because I like things because I like them, not because G4 tells me to.
Eat a dick.
you know it
if you are going to do 2d sprites, do them in high rez.
3 years to draw those sprites my ass. 3 months maybe.
god lord, just add that fucking tool to your ignore list
