Alright, you guys are right. You’ve proven me to be a Terry fraud.
I need to get back on 98 and 02 before I think about saying anything Terry related in a game, I have to learn a character’s history before I can think of legitimately representing them.
Also, this gif is really tiny and terrible, but we can confirm a few things.
-Probably going to be 97 Terry.
-f.A special cancel (I forget if he had this in 97/98, just know he doesn’t in XIII)
-Power Charge launches and juggles, which even if they nerf so you can’t loop it, means he will probably get damage.
Terry’s f.A is special and super cancelable in both 97 and 98, even as a stand alone move. I treat it like a Ralf Far C, albeit pretty slow and pretty punishable, but I do it when people don’t really expect it and maximize my spacing and probability that it’ll connect with an opponent. Then from contact I cancel usually into power wave, and with f.A on block most people get frametrapped by the power wave as they try to press something or jump after blocking f.A. In XIII I like the speed of f.A and that it’s a single hit so I don’t have to sweet spot it for the “cancel,” but that’s the thing it can’t cancel into specials unless in HD mode.
97 Terry would be too good since there are more things he can hit reset with after Power Charge and if you whiff cr.A or st.A he can juggle into another Power Charge, hence the infinite. I’d be fine if he was 1 to 1 98 or 98um Terry. It would be cool if he can instant overhead the whole cast instead of just mid-height crouchers like in 97 and 98 though.
Well might as well get some gameplay discussion in since I’m bored.
I think Shanwoo needs a command grab buff (faster normals would be cool too and it would be dope if he could do something out of his command roll) because I feel sad when you see it whiff or just barely be able to punish an opponent. A lot of times, if someone does a block string, you would think they are just close enough to grab, then you just find out it’s just short. I also still don’t know why he doesn’t have a CD while everyone else I tried has one.
I have most trouble Linn the most at the moment. Mostly because her fireball is damn fast and she recovers quickly too. Her pressure is really strong and her buttons like her jab seem really fast, she also seems to confirm easy off them into a full combo. I still didn’t have some decent sets against a lot of the cast yet though.
I find planting bombs with CoolB fun, but his victory dance burns my eyes, so I actually regret using him at times. Though I honestly never took the time to truly learn him, I think the idea of planting bombs is fun.
Well, I sort of liked Buster Wolf in KOF XI, because I could cancel power charge phase II on it, but I doubt here it will be the case.
I don’t know, you could like any move you want, but I can’t help to think Buster Wolf is over rated as hell.
I have no problems with Shanwoo’s grabs, because I only use them to finish combos. He’s not supposed to be a grappler (use Ray, in any case), I think, I use him more as a mix-up character, but yeah, he needs drastic buffs in almost every department.
His tools feel very scarce and insufficent when you fight honchos like Brazel, Claire, Ell Blue or Linn. I know he has some auto-block on standing C, but it’s just like nothing against those characters’s start-ups, insane priorities and invincibility.
He’s easily the most neglected character of all the roster. Remember when he seemed to be cool and had this Clark-like ‘gattling attack’?

Sadly, they’re saying they’ll probably give Andre (an upcoming boxer) this move; what will lead to abandon Shanwoo even more.
Oh, yeah, Linn’s jabs and shorts can even combo into themselves, I’ve been getting affitionate to do jab only/short only fights.
His whole model is pretty weird, with those gigantic eyes. And I find his alternate costume even more irritating.
Wow, why would they remove a whole move like that? Even if they give it to someone else, it’s not like sharing one move with someone else would hurt variety.
Holy crap the animation in that trailer looks so much better than how the game looks now. If everything was animated like that this would seriously be one of the best looking fighters out right now.
delbuster wolf…
Yeah. They had to cut down animation to improve online performance.
That doesn’t make any sense and I refuse to believe such an absurdity.
Does to me.
Why else would Namco remove lots of visual ambience (fish and spectators on the boat and school stages leap to mind) from TTT2 only while online if not to reduce lag?
…
This is gonna bite me in the ass.
i think it was more like they were trying to emulate the animation style of classic 2d games
EXPECTED: You have to pay more points than you can earn in a single month to use the SNK characters.
I don’t think it would be that bad if they have the weekend achievements. I was able to permanently buy a character and have some points left over for doing 5 ranked matches on friday and saturday for 8000 points, and I have points left over to rent someone if I wanted to. I think Shirley is the most expensive at the moment. Doesn’t she need like 9900 points for a permanent buy? If they price Terry and Benimaru in that range it would take you a weekend and some matches to get that.
Shirley, Sheva, Brazel and Ameth are the most expensive ones (3900 30-days rent; 9900 permanent purchase). Most characters are 2900 month rent, 7900 (iirc) permanent purchase; there are others like Panda, Prayuth, and I don’t remember which others, that are cheaper (1900 rent and 6900 purchase, again, iirc).
In case of Shirley, Sheva and Brazel, I guess that’s because they’re too damn broken, while Ameth… well, I don’t think there’s need to explain why.
And yes, I guess SNK characters will be like 9000 to rent, 15000 to purchase, I still don’t know if I’m going to try to buy them, it also depends on what they will do with Sheva.

i think the top tiers would be like this:
s tier:
ameth claire ell blue
a+ tier:
legend sheva lynn brazel
Brazel would be S Tier, no doubt. And what about Arashi? He’s a nightmare :S

Add me in the game !!

I am tired of waiting for free key so I ended up bought the key from the website that charge expensive service fee just for a digital key lol. I just can’t take waiting for free key. But anyway since I did bought some extra for my friends and well. Regardless I have 4 key left if anyone want to buy it from me P.M me. I am reasonable until the last key (which i may even put it on ebay for bid) but anyway other wise the 1st 3 people would get reasonable price.
