Xuandou Zhiwang, Chinese Free to Play fighting game (Currently in closed beta)

Start up the game with the joystick plugged in.

In the options, there are 4 tabs under the top header that says “Setting”. Click on the third tab.

You’'ll see the joystick layout. Click up and starting mapping your directions and buttons. The left side should be obvious. The keys on the right goes as follows:

top left: A
top right: B
bottom left: C
bottom right: D

What did people put for their identity number? I don’t have a passport so i couldn’t use mine even if i wanted to.

Where did you get the key for the game? I tried the site using the tips given in previous posts, but it still fails.
It’s nice to have tested with one of the accounts posted pages ago, but you know how it is, is not the own account.

Sorry for some possible errors, english is not my primary language.

Did you see the post about purchasing keys?

Yes, I read. But I have not read anything about having accomplished. Perhaps inattention on my part. So I thought I’d ask if it was the other way or seller.

Ill sell you a key once I get them. 7 are coming my way very soon. So hit me up!

EDIT!

And the keys are IN! I have 7 keys available right now if anyone is interested in one. 3 of them however are already accounted for (You know who you are) So I only have 4 keys remaining. First come first serve.

As is costing one? Before asking for some confirmation.

Ok so I activated the key and tried to login with my details and Im presented with this message:

What do I do here?

I think you need to reference this post. Ignore everything about scoring lights but steps 1 and 5 are the important ones here.

Just launched the game and played a match thanks to Cutwest. So now can someone explains to me WHY the game is playing Usher inside the menus ? :'D

China has weird taste in music. You can replace the lobby songs by replacing the files or you can turn music off. Word of warning, if you replace the files, the next time the game updates the old lobby songs will be back.

splendid my account is lock for 24. just when i got the key.

Thanks JohnGrimm.

Im in…! With hardly any characters lol need to level up and unlock them.

Has any English speaker been able to record or stream this?

Funny you say that because I’m streaming it right now. If I can get people on to get some casuals going I’ll do that.

@JohnGrimm link to your stream dude.

How can I lower the video settings? I want to play this on my netbook.

so gave my key to my freind and it worked.

Whoops, well I ended it now, but it’s twitch.tv/johnxuandou. I didn’t realize I forgot to link.

Did a stream session for french viewers too tonight. The game is fun but not that fun in my opinion. It’s a mixed bag of old kof and new kof, and it taste weird. To list a bit :

  • Jumps and hitstun during hops is the same as kof 13, very easy to combo.
  • Normal moves have the exact same feeling that the kof series has, as well as movement
  • There is no free juggle as you have in XI/XIII. For ex after a jump CD counter, you can’t do a second jump CD
  • Some characters have EX moves, but they are just gimmick and do not give free juggle state too
  • The meter system is like kof 97 where you break a meter to acces beter supers. Nice but kinda oldschool.
  • Throw is on A + C so you can whiff throw and there is no option select of throws
  • Netcode is awesome, truly awesome
  • The launcher is ok too
  • Music is shit, as sounds and voice acting
  • Art is ok, but in game it’s very character specific. Some moves are well animated, other aren’t. But both are often ugly and the fact they copy other moves does not compensate the bad tech/art.

Globally the game looks like it was made by a group of technicians after someone told them “copy kof !”. They copied it very, very well, the feeling is identical, but beside the art robberry, you can feel they do not know how to do fighting games. Many things points toward this :

  • The moves they copy are often worse than the original because they don’t use it right. For exemple a character has the stand HK of Morrigan (when she raises her leg vertically) and it does not “feel” right as HK in kof are often used for short/rapid footsies, not anti-air (you have down HP for this, or you do a HP like Mature/Vice with long startup and a lot of active frames and 45° angle) so the move is basically useless. There are many exemples of this kind of mistake where the devs thought it was cool looking… But it’s not “logic” witht he kof mechanics or the animation is not ok with the speed given ot the use you have from it.
  • The activation of the super meter is like in kof 97 except it’s SUPER long and dangerous, so you never use it. For ex you can’t dodge a DP, activate the meter bar, and punish, it takes too much time. And as the game does a lot of damage normally, you don’t feel the need of using it.
  • They often use a move and change it a bit and doing that, they remove all the charisma of the move. For ex the super of the hero of the game has a final uppercut that looks exactly like Kyo 2000 HDM uppercut or kof XIII EX kyo neomax. But in kof, it’s ONE hit, one BIG impact, with a big freeze to make you notice you took something HARD in the face. In XDZW, the move is the same but the game records 5 to 7 hits with no impact, no feeling. It’s not even logical from graphical point of view. Many moves have this problem.
  • Characters are most of the time, shit. They seem to lack a purpose. You sometimes pick a character and wonder for a whole match what is he about. Of course the feilong clone is pushing, the hero has rekkas and DP… But some are lacking a purpose and ambition.
  • The game lacks polish, and has a kind of “we don’t care” touch that you rarely find in japanese games. The projects lacks ambition and a badass producer behind it to push forward in my opinion.

So I trully hope the SNK characters will have fresh air, and that instead of money, SNKP made a deal with Tencent to take techno to port KOFXIII on PC with he same launcher, same netcode and same optimisation. If they do this it would be trully fantastic.

My final feeling when a friend asked me about the game is that… I regret it’s not someone else who’s doing it. I think it’s kind of sum everything up.
