QuoteUNCONFIRMED: SNK Playmore announced The King of Fighters XIII will be coming to arcade in April 2010, the game will run on the Taito Type X2 system.
didnt want to make a new topic, regarding it in case it was fake out the eyeballs, but theres a rumoured kof XIII in the works. supposedly kof XII with an added 12months dev time.
maybe it wont be shit.
mod edit: too bad, new topic it is!
Yeah I saw mention of that too, kinda hard to know whether to take it seriously though. Hopefully it's a pleasant surprise this time!
'supposedly' its been in development from the same time as 12 and they released 12 as a feeler for what 13 will be like .
'supposedly' we should just forget about 12 and everyone just come and play XI :P ::)
we will when you get it on ps2
David seems to be missing the fact that everyone has already given up on 12.
lol.......Rich miss this game .......without Birry wong ...
Im ready any time when u ready Rich...gato power... ;D ;D ;D
there you go oro-chan, another chance to try and make a game you like catch on.

makes me wonder if anyone made a david tua edit for 'rog in sf4.
Probably, but Capcom or KOF makers need a Islander in the game. I reckon you could make a very interesting character :)
Are you sure? Capcom DO make very stereotypical characters...
I need examples relating to an islander stereotype please.
Woot! Can't wait. Hopefully KoF13 gets a bit more hype behind it.
Oh, KoFXII was plenty hyped... just didn't live up to it :p

I dont see whats so appealing about playing a drunk dude who only beats up female characters, and then spends half the match in prison.

i bring to you random reports for kof XIII
Quote-Traditional 3v3 team based system
-No more clashing or critical counter.
-New system: Drive Cancel; a special cancel system similar to Roman Cancel or FADC with it's own meter. HyperDrive cancel is a super version of it in which for a limited time allows for infinite DriveCancels.
-EX attacks: Just as it sounds. Each EX attack has an added ability like invincibility or juggle, etc. Yes, there are even EX supers which work essentially like SDMs.
-Returning characters will have more complete movelists
-Mai, King, Yuri, Alternate version of Ash confirmed.
also, billy lewis could be in aka, the blue guy from double dragon. he had the flash kick looking power geyser in rage of the dragons.
EX moves and FADCs, I need to get this lol. I do need another excuse to use my TE though, but it'll probably be $120 and no-one will play it.
I will most likely acquire this.
more notes regarding this. stolen from cyberfanatix.
QuoteSystem notes:
CHANGES FROM THE PREVIOUS VERSION
=================================
GRAPHICS
- Characters are smaller and it's easier to see the full screen.
- As of now there aren't any stages that make it hard to see the characters.
SYSTEM
- All KOFXII systems (CC, sousai, guard attack) have been removed
- BAKUSUTE(?) has probably not been made shorter (wtf is bakusute? it's written in katakana)
- Throws are back to lever + button motion
- Kara cancels are possible again.
GAME SYSTEM
===========
8- way lever + 4 buttons.
COUNTER HITS
Counter hits have a blue effect when they occur, similar to KOFXII but the effect isn't the same.
A few counter hit animations are like KOFXII but the window is short, sort of like the interval between dashing and doing a strong attack.
GUARD CRUSH
Guard meter under the lifebar, your guard drops when it becomes empty. However at the current time it seems to recover much faster than it's lost, so there haven't been that many guard crushes seen. On top of that it looks like the guard crush window is very tight so it's very hard to take advantage of it. Wondering if drive attacks will have a bigger effect on the guard meter.
GUARD CANCEL
Revived from older games. Costs 1 power stock. Does damage, but not possible to KO with it.
STUN
This has also returned. However unlike XI there's no visible stun meter so it's not possible to know when it's going to happen.
POWER GAUGES
Return of multiple power stocks. You get one additional stock per team member that you lose (much like earlier games). Feels like they charge up faster than in previous games.
EX SPECIAL MOVES/DESPERATION MOVES
Use 1 stock to do powered up specials or DMs. The powering up depends on the move - might be more damage, invincibility, etc.
EX specials have a blue shadow sort of effect to them while EX DMs are red (versus yellow for regular DMs)
DRIVE GAUGE
Green gauge above the power gauge. The length increases by 50% every time you lose a character (so that the gauge is twice as long when you're down to your last character). Fills up at about the same rate as the power gauge, so pretty quickly. However, whiffing special moves will not fill the drive gauge (although it still fills the power gauge).
DRIVE CANCEL
Can be used as soon as the drive gauge passes 50%, which means that on your last character it can be used up to four times.
You can cancel special moves as well as command moves that couldn't normally be cancelled into other special moves and DMs.
HYPERDRIVE MODE
Press BC when the drive gauge is maxed out to activate. Your character will have a sort of hazy afterglow and will be able to do as many drive cancels as he wants. The gauge doesn't fall faster if you do a cancel like in '02. However if you take any damage the mode ends.
hmmm.
I guess bakusute could be backstep (dash back), but then you'd expect it to be bakusuteppu...
And you know you must have been onto a winner when all the previous game's mechanics get dropped :P
bastards were onto something with kof XI and they dropped all of it >:(
screen cap of the character select screen. holy crap thats an ugly palette swap for ryo

he means FULL hd
Those vids made it look clunkier than the last lot of vids.
I thought so at first but the fights with Mai, Yuri, King look a bit better.
The Drive Guage makes this game sound combo'rific....mean
sounds like they're heading back in the right direction

QuoteNew gameplay additions to be seen in the new location test:
Yuri gains Chou Upper.
Chin has a stock system for drinking like Shun from VF.
Ralf gains a new special and an alternate version of his Vulcan punch DM.
Mai gains ground charge Musasabi no Mai.
Andy has a DM version of Hishouken.
King gains crossup with her j.D.
Ash and Shen have their powerup DMs again but they only cost 2 bars.
Guard cancel system from KoF12 returns.
Throw escape goes back to how it used to be in the older games.
NeoMax seems to be an HSDM-ish system in that it requires HyperDrive activated + 3 bars from super meter but doesn't require one have their health in critical. From the demo video with Ash, it looks like they'll be very comboable too.
Story revelation:
Apparently Mature and Vice are dead.
They are just materialized apparitions that have come back to help Iori since it has something to do with this new force screwing around with the Orochi powers.
Other additions:
At least two new stages. One in the Jungle and another in what I assume is New York.
Fuck yeah Vice!
haha fuck, anyone remember hwa jai? from the first fatal fury?
he fills in the last spot on kims team.
intro movie. you get a quick peek at that alternate ash.... at least i think thats him.
footage of neoMAX moves. just seem like this games version of SDMs/ultras whatever.
Ralf @ 1:52-2:02 (doing his best luffy impression)
Joe @ 3:42-3:49 (combination of his 03 LDM and screw upper)
terry @ 3:15 - 3:20 (power geyser wave thing)
Ryo @ 2:40-2:47 (i think its the stun punch hes always had. dont see the full animation cause it trades)
Takuma @ 4:27-4:33 (its freaking misogi)
not that anyone here gives a fuck but k' has been confirmed :P
so far he only has the iron trigger + two follups. no sign of crow bite or minute spike yet, but he better fucking have them.
whatever, plenty of people here are interested in KoF.
You lie! :D
With an avatar like yours I definitely am interested in KOF. Like that game KOF XXX: Ultimate Rape.
and spin off, King of Prison: Stu Goes To Jail
...to meet richard and friends.
Fuck your an idiot Richard. Stu wouldnt be the king of prison. He'd be the dude made to pick the soap up in the shower.

That background looks amazing though! All I want is for this to actually play like a KOF which is where the last one failed. This looks like it plays like KOF2002 and that's what I want, gameplay like 2002 but with graphics that look like they were made this century ;D
I know an online community for this is to much to ask for :'( I'm sure I can con Richard, Lenny and Bill into playing this at my place though and I know Steve will be keen 8)
I dunno, this doesn't look anywhere near as exciting as 2k2 was. It does look more KoF than XII did though.
As for online, going on precedent, it won't be the people that will be the problem, it'll be the netcode!

in case others havent seen it yet. dunno why it hasnt been posted yet.
skip to about 3:34 for the actual gameplay.
@ 3:34 - robert/yuri/kyo vs kim/kensou/iori - this one is kinda boring.
@ 8:21 - k'/king/beni vs terry/ryo/kyo - k' looks awesome as always :D you get to see some custom combo-y ish from kyo round the 11:00 mark too
@ 12:51 - robert/yuri/kyo vs athena/elizabeth/ash - elizabeth looks alot better than she was in XII
@ 17:05 - kula/duo/raiden vs terry/ryo/kyo - kula doesnt do much here, just gets kicked in the face by terry and then duo sweeps.
@ 21:17 - kim/takuma/iori vs athena/mature/elizabeth - mature doesnt look too different as far as gameplay goes. takuma looks BEAST... well for one round anyway. seems super easy for elizabeth to connect her super
@ 25:26 - clark/k'/beni vs duo/kula/raiden - at about 29:00 beni zaps himself with ligthning. anyone know what it does? angry scar type of move?
yar.
Holy Cow Hwa Jai is in the roster! Haven't seen him since Fatal Fury 1! And Yuri too. Actually I might get this!
dark ash boss battle. dunno how i feel about blackface :/
:o
look mean ya....n similar enter to da full alchemist world lol ::)
I played it today at club Sega and did okay vs some random guy.
I only had one game and thought it played awesome. Kinda reminds me a bit os CVS2 for some reason. Will be going back tomorrow to play at Club Sega akihabara. They had it at Taito HEY too but the comp and line was crazy.
The palletes for your characters are pretty creative and the game moves fast and looks mint as! Backgrounds also look great. It's lost all of 12's shittiness and plays bananas good so far.
Gonna try again tomorrow. My team was Kim, Ryo and Takuma.
read up on mature and go for her infinite :D

The game just received a new update patch from what I've read. Glitches and infinities gone. So far no reports of any other changes but could be too early to say. Apparently the update was only implemented a few days ago.
yeah, i saw that too
http://shoryuken.com/content/2062-king-fighters-xiii-arcade-update-1-1-live/comments2.html#comments
Getting the hang of this a bit better.
For some reason im having real trouble with Duo Lon's rekkas. The timing is quite strange. Should be the easiest thing in the world but i think i must be spastic mashing or something.
In other news, the combo/EX/drive cancel system is really easy to get into. Managed to land a beast 80% combo with Andy vs the CPU today. And they seem really practical as well. Im gonna try some sweet hyper drive cancels tonight when i head back down there. From the vids ive watched that shit leads to awesome loops/MASSIVE damage.
The dropkick is pretty fucked though. And raiden can juggle a power bomb off of it, as well as punch -> dropkick -> punch -> dropkick.
All the grapplers can do cool stuff. Clark did his autocombo into some kind of air throw on me. I can see im going to be investing A LOT of time into this game.
Sweet Alan. This thread appears to be appropriately titled.
Fuck. Cant land that cool 80% combo with Andy again. And my KOF basics have gone to shit. Cody was giving me the smash at yifans today.
Fuck this game is way more fun than SF4.
Some of the alternate colours are awesome. (Microsoft K' is so hideous its awesome) If you hit start at the palette select screen, some characters have like 10 extra colours.
_b
I'll merge your other post in here too.
It's at Yifan's? Awesome! missed it by a couple of weeks. Will have to check it out next time I'm up north. Hopefully Arcade Edition is out by then too. 8)
I actually am really enjoying this game eh. WAAAAAY moreso than with SF4. Also, in traditional SNK fashion, the bosses are gay.
What a surprise birry, it's a game where attacking is encouraged!
SO tell me Bill. Is drop kick everything I had hoped it would be?
Cant play Raiden to save my own ass. But it seems pretty fucking good.
Ive decided that a guard bar should be in every single fighting game in the world. THATS RIGHT KEEP TURTLING YOU FUCKING WUSSBAGS
so how do these drive cancels work bill? i know they use the drive meter, but thats it.
You pretty much just do another special move during a special move, and it hits.
Eg. Andy can combo C -> f.A -> hcf+k -> qcf+p. The hcf+k -> qcf+p is a drive cancel, but you dont have to do anything special. Also, you CANT drive cancel on block.
Hyper drive cancels are a bit more like max mode/FADC. when you activate EX mode or whatever its called in a combo, your character does a forward dash, which you can cancel with a move Again, heres an Andy example.
C -> f.A -> (3 buttons to activate EX mode)-> C -> f.A ->hcf+k -> qcf+p xx qcb hcf+k xx qcb hcf + AC
The hyper drive cancel to go into EX mode allows Andy to combo a second C -> f.A and also gives him access to his qcb hcf + AC neomax super, which he can cancel his normal super into, much like a kofxi dream cancel.
Actually, drive cancels can basically be summed up as dream cancels, but for special moves.
Takuma has da coolest Anbu Mask.....Yea.... ;D ;D ;D ;D
I really wanna get into this game. Can't wait to try it out when I'm there this December :)
Anyways Bill, I was reading that you've got unlimited amout of Drive Cancels for a period of time while the Hyper Drive meter is full but is that the only time you can cancel? Sorry if that's a KOF noob question, never really played any of the KOFs much except for KOF98.... But I'm total scrub at that and am keen to get an ass whooping at that on GGPO sometime if anyone is keen ;D

Saw Cody beasting a few people including Bill. I can't tell if it plays good or bad but it looks AMAZING. Use of light is really impressive. The only thing is the characters seem quite small.

Yea unlimited when youre in EX mode or whatever its called. Outside of EX mode each drive cancel costs half your drive meter.

Yea fuck im pretty useless. Cody's basic KOF is ridiculously awesome. He's at the point now where he is SO GOOD at the KOF fundamentals that he can pick up a character he has never played before and be awesome with him. We scrub out trying to pick our characters, and cody just goes random and slaughters people.

Is common when you sees Cody s play all KOF series . I usually spend 2-3 credit just to win hi on 98UM . He's timing of pressing button n command 98%(including reaction) . I guess for those who play with him in SF4is way different than KOF13. Lol cant wait to slaughter me today . ::)
Raiden is fucking ridiculous.
Been watching a few SBO/Tougeki vids. And whenever there is a match where only one player has raiden, raiden always goes last, and ALWAYS reverse OCV's the other team. The only time i have actually seen raiden lose a match in a decent video is in a raiden mirror.
Random shoulder charge/combo into shoulder charge -> dropkick -> s.a -> dropkick ->EX grab/Neomax = 90% damage for only 2 STANDARD meters. Theres no drive cancel in that shit.
Hes the kind of character i want to learn and then NEVER EVER USE except to cheese out someone i dislike.
that is if u can land it :P
Quote from: zosla on November 04, 2010, 08:46:31 AM
that is if u can land it :P
Its easy. Like, dumb easy.
Sort of like landing Ryu j.mp -> ultra in SF4. ITS THAT EASY. You dont even need to time anything. You score one random hit, and then you get 90% damage off of it. Its broken as all hell.
Even without meter, just getting dropkick -> jab -> dropkick is 50% damage.
Look at the last combo in this video.
And you can land the dropkick off of just about anything raiden does. Its insane.
All the characters in the game have a combo that does that much damage. The reason im so hype about raidens is BECUASE its so easy to land.
Drop Kicks madnessssss ;D ;D ;D ;D
Its so broken but SO AWESOME
I bags Raiden. He suits my playstyle.
TBH Weazzy this whole game suits your playstyle. In KOF, the counter to everything is to rush down harder than the other guy.
Some of the tournaments for this game use a really really interesting format.
They use a points based ratio system.
Say youre playing in a "6 point" tournament, like the last Arcade Infinity tournament was. This means that your team can only be worth 6 points total. Each character has a certain number of points based on their tier.
5 Points: Raiden, K'
4 Points: Kyo, Elizabeth, Kula, Andy, Robert
3 Points: Iori, Shen, Takuma, Yuri
2 Points: Kim, Benimaru,
1 Point: Mai, Leona, Terry, Chin, Mature, Ash, King
0 Points: Joe, Athena, Ralf, Ryo, Maxima, Hwa Jai, Vice, Daimon, Duo Lon, Clark, Kensou
So if I wanted a 6 point team, i could use Andy/Ash/Terry. (4+1+1=6) But i wouldnt be allowed to use Raiden/K'/Kyo (5+5+4 =14)
This is a really interesting tournament format. We used something similar for a low tier marvel tourney we had not too long ago.
As far as the tiers go, I haven't played the game enough to comment on them. I know Raiden is top. And im sure K' probably is once people get a bit better. There doesnt really seem to be much difference between the tiers at this point IMO. Besides Raiden because hes so braindead.
So like cvs ratios then...
Yea kind of. Obviously not built into the game. Just an interesting way of playing a tournament so that you see a better mix of characters.
Raiden > Sagat
but AFAIK none of the Raiden players made it to the final of Tougeki? So i guess its not that bad.
Some advices for match up against Raiden I gathered from the web:
1. Rush him down in the first 10 seconds (the time he needs to charge for it to be effective), at least you should make sure your HP is higher then him after the first 10s.
Since its only scary when he's holding both kicks, he can't roll/quick recovery, so setup jumpins more with knockdowns say c.HK and j.CD and do crossup/non-crossup mixups, which is ridiculously hard to see in this game. You can even make it so you don't even know if its a crossup yourself, then hit confirm with light attacks -> combos.
2. After 10s, play defensive run away style, wait for dp or any knockdown, then do the crossup mixup again. Remember never ever do fireball or backstep(if the other guy has the reaction). If your HP is lower than him, then good luck.
3. Character with better matchup against him, because of easy crossup: K, Kyo, Yuri, Iori, etc
4. use Raiden ;D

I think it's an awesome system. Damn I can't wait to find the time to go and play this. Even more I want dates for the console versions!!!!!
Haha Cody I think we read the same websites.
BUT heres the Tougeki/SBO semi final, where a Raiden player gets through to the finals. (Although this wasnt 100% because of his Raiden)
Cant find a vid of the finals unfortunately, but there was definitely a Raiden user IN the finals.

You're probably right cause I only read it once from somewhere I can't even remember, but its still good at least its not 4/4 in the semifinal and the winner isn't a Raiden player......... lol
OTOH, you can notice there are a lot more K's
Yea. There are HEAPS of K's.

You dont really. Its pretty easy to pick up kofxiii. The only person thats awesome at it atm is cody. Hue was beating people on his first day just doing SF4 shit.
Yah this game seems hella easy compared to the other ones it feels like.
I beat some dude that I recognise that used to play down at yiffans on 98 etc.
Holy shit.
Ok, so as youre all probably aware, japanese arcades have already had a patch for kofxiii, removing the glitches and various infinites. But i also just read that after the patch, Raidens uber level 4 drop kick (there are 4 levels of charge. the longer you charge, the better it is, like a TAP) needs to be charged for 25 seconds. TWENTY FIVE SECONDS.
Luckily for us at Yifans, we dont have this patch. And im not sure how long you need to charge for a level 4 dropkick currently.

The level 3 and 4 are the cool ones.
Level 3 is 12 seconds and level 4 is 16 seconds iirc.
Fucking hell. Thats a pretty massive change then. I find it awkward enough trying to play him as is. Although luckily the random burst of 50%+ damage that he gets off of EVERY JUGGLE kind of makes up for it.
Anywho, after a few games today I have decided that my team (which is very different from the one I was originally going to play) will be Takuma, Raiden, and Mature.
Takmua just seemed solid and easy for me to play. I really enjoyed zoning and being annoying with him. I managed to get one pretty sweet combo with him that I was stoked with.
Raiden... well it's Raiden :) Only managed to get the double dropkick once, and it's actually nott as OP as I originally thought. To use it you are basically cutting off your roll, counter roll, counter attack, and HD cancel whatsamahijit for like a fifth of the round. Although hitting one of them is so fucking awesome lol.
Mature is just nice and easy to play. Has a sweet rekka style gameplay, and was pretty similar to what I remember of her in KOF2k2. Was doing jump feirce, standing feirce, rekk x3, cancel into super for pretty sweet damage.
One thing I have to get used to is how different the footsies are in this, well pretty much they almost don't exist lol. Also, meter management seem really interesting in this game given the shitload of different ways you can use it.
So far I'd have to say I really enjoyed it, and at only $1-00 per game its not that bad of a sting to the pocket imo.
Practice mode is now available when you "hold Light Punch and press start"
The technician guy at yifans has changed it to 10 minutes instead of 5mins (Real time, not game time) so I highly recommend people to take the advantage of this before he's changing it back.....
In practice mode, you can do pretty much everything you need in order to pick up the game. HOWEVER, The real challenge is....... defeating ALL the players who play on the other side before you can go to practice mode... it doesn't make much sense but sadly that's how it work lol.............
@BILL : Raiden did 2 combos and each of them does 80-85% HP, that's not too bad, is it.......:P & K is god tier because his flame can BBQ all the haters.
@Lenny: footsies still exist in this game. In fact, it's a fundamental element for most fighting games. Just by using Footsies & mind games, we can still win "not so good players" who play the game for ages. And yeah, I love how they have the cancel gauge & super gauge separately, It's a very interesting system and It definitely hold a lot of potential that needs to be unlocked.
BTW, does anyone ACTUALLY feel any delays when you play ?? I've heard a lot of complaint about this so I have already told the technician guy regarding this issue and he said that he's going to switch something around and test the lag out this coming Monday. So If anyone thinks that they can help, please come by and shout him some advices on how the game should be set as I cannot make it due to my exam time. not sure about Cody.
For some reason, everyone is complaining about lag except cody. I was complaining about it pretty hard myself. But tbh, the more i play it, the more i think it might just be the speed of the game that nobody is used to. I could just be adjusting to the lag though. Its pretty hard to judge actually.
The delay on moves seemed pretty big but not so big when jumping and stuff which makes me think that its just the game not so much the monitors. It really shouldnt have any more lag than the sf4 setup which is a little laggy but doesnt feel as slow as kofxiii. Putting it on a little CRT cabinet well make it less laggy but I think its better for the game to be on the lcd so that people take notcie and hopefully play it.
Good call ben. And tbh I'd rather play it on the LCD anyway because it's prettier.
Fuck man I'm hooked on this shit eh. I'm thinking about schlepping into town today just to play it.
Im working tomorrow, so since there's normally no one down there on a Sunday, I'm gonna sneask down and rock the 10 minute training mode.
Gotta suss out mah dropkicks yo!
Yea i was playing on training mode just now...no one there either finally lol....on takuma,....super dream cancel sooo coool

No.
A little to obvious there andy
actually if u think I was being serious then.....
it was for Bill exclusively LOL, u knwo how its liek with the lag and u no!!! where is the humor bitches.
;D ;D ;D
Lag is serious business.
So serious that I didn't spell it 'srs bzns'
I can do Andy's loop 100% from the left side, but have trouble getting the super to come out at the end.
I can get the super out 100% from the right side, but have trouble doing the loop. FML.
Overall though, im pretty happy with how my Andy is progressing combo-wise
K's loop im having a bit of trouble with. I cant seem to cancel his uppercut into his qcb+k properly.
Shen is pretty cool. I think ill rock him as my 3rd for the time being. Although Terry is also pretty cool. Maybe i should just drop K' and stop being a tier whore.
just pick the characters that suit your style and have fun with them. Who cares about tier list......
Tier list is for pro gamers anyway.......... casual players like us won't make a different lol....
I'm getting better at this game.... but too bad, I'm leaving very soon >.<" So, lose to me all you want coz after next week, you can't lose to me anymore........ ^_^
Are you coming tomorrow Bill ?? I will show you my triple Killer team.
Ill be in tomorrow around 11-12 and at like 4:30-6
fuck u Hue, give me a call when u finish ur exams, cao!!!!
Also Hue, if you're using team KKK, then you need to have all white costumes. Or its not cool.
Fuck mature is annoying. Safe rekkas. Infinite. And I'm pretty sure nothing beats her j.CD air to air. Wouldn't mind it if she wasn't such a boring character design. Yes. I'm salty.

Haha. Hue managed to zone me out in fucking KOF. >_<
remember, there is no right way of playing a fighting game Billy san.

Haha. Yea. Its my own fault. When im playing im not really trying to win, im just trying to land AWESOME COMBOS. And given how much Hue loves winning, im never gonna beat him (or anyone really) if i keep playing like that.
But combos are so awesome. SO AWESOME.
Well..... you should just go to practice mode and do combos if that's what you want and don't have to challenge me....next time you challenge me, I will just let you win so that you can show me those "Awesome combos" against a dummy.
Another advise, you don't go to better players such as Daigo and says: "Play me and I will show you my awesome combos" you will be lucky if you can land a 2 hit combo on him.....
And no, I've never love winning against boring players...... I'd rather lose to good player than win boring games, Fact #1, I was the only one who keep challenging Cody even though the level different in KOF is pretty large, Fact #2, I lost many games on purposes so that the not so good players can get to practice, I was smashing some KOF players yesterday but after 5 win I saw no point in keep winning so I let them win and went to play 3rd strike. So if you wanna make some statement about me, please make so they are correct.
If you were talking about my 1st day playing KOF then yes, I didn't want to lose simply because I was just under the impression of my fundamental skill could beat all the players that had more advantages in that game. All I can say is: They know how to play KOF, but they don't know how to play fighting games.
I'm not a pro gamer nor a talent player, but seeing there's just too many worse players than me limit their potential by making up excuses make me sad and disappointed.

Fuck fuck fuck. I didnt mean any offense by anything i said. Sorry if I came across like some salty wanker.
If i lose, I lose because im worse. Plain and simple. I know this. Im not making any excuses. Im just saying that if i want to beat people, i need to stop trying to land combos and do dumb stuff and actually try to learn the game.
Honestly Hue, i have a lot of respect for you, and i know you respect your opponents, beginner or otherwise. I honestly wasnt trying to insult you or anything. Sorry If saying shit about how you 'like winning' came across this way. Ill delete it if you like. I seriously didnt mean anything by it. But I can totally understand it was a dumb disrespectful thing for me to post. I apologise for that.
For real, im sorry if anything i said sounded like i was insulting you. I wasn't. This is a big misunderstanding.
Nah don't listen Hue. Bill was talking shit about you all day today at yiffan's. He was like "Fuck Hue!" he's a scrub. And I said to Bill "nah Bill, Hue's a cool, kind, caring, and handsome guy.". Then Bill told me to shut up or he'd kill me, and then he wrote "Hue = Penis" on a chair at the bus stop.
All good Bill, I can never hate someone like you. You are a lot more awesome than me, personality wise.
And I LOL at Lenny's story.
Cheers Hue.
I felt like such an asshole. This must be what being Lenny feels like.
@Lenny,
**winks, Shadow steps, Ambush,Premeditation, Shadow Dance, Cheapshot, Ambush, Ambush, Cheapshot, Ambush, Ambush, Kidneyshot and Ambush till to death^^
Trinket.
You should probably take all your points out of murderous intent and precision and put them into deadly brew, imp recuperate and relentless strikes. Probably should take your points from ruthlessness and put em in deadened nerves too.

keep your dirty WoW talk out of this please, or make your own fucking topic.
cunts.

I also like to land awesome combos, but I feel more of a accomplishment when I find a obscure chance to land it,
instead of doing it from big openings or *blindfold + *rush lol

fuck beans k's neomax is so awesome :D
iori seems to be my best character atm. sad that he cant combo into his 'grab' without a DC though. cant get my cool neomax combo on :(
and fuck beans i need to look up some terry combos.
Do this one richard.
I think im gonna drop elisabeth for terry. Hes a touch slow, but he's nice and easy to use. BUSTAH WURRF
Rockin the Terry/Robert/Andy atm.
oh bro, im only using terry for his awesome neomax :D
which i think need full drive meter and 3 levels.
Fuck this game is fun. If only i could use Duo Lon from the right side as well as the left side, i'd be golden.
Here you go BirDiiieeEE woooOOOng .....Epic video same pattern in Allll KOF series " how to kick BOSS ASSSSSS"
What i did In Yifan Couple weeks ago ...i get close to the Boss( 1st and last boss ) distant like the video link above. I cancel Light punch or LIGHT Kick just to let the boss auto guard . The boss will always attack you after u did anything stupid ( just to stop u doing super or any punishing ). Basically the boss always defense 1st then attack .
Then u block and then crouching high kick the knock down opponent . ( the same combo again and again then congratulation u beat the Boss LOL)
Sumarise :
Crouching or standing lk ( hold arcade stick down to block any attack ) then crouching HK ) . This is it Benwork way . So Enjoy LOL.... ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
oh dear :/

Neithan from Bas Gros Poing is reporting that Masaaki Kukineo, producer of KOF XII and XIII, left SNKPlaymore in November. This news creates some doubt about the port of KOF XIII. Furthermore, sources within SNKP are reporting that the new president, Ryo Mizufune, wants to shut down the video game division and focus on licensing instead, such as porting old titles and creating pachinko games and figures. With the lack of news regarding the console release of XIII, the future for King of Fighters is looking bleak.
Yeah there was an interview on Eventhubs not long ago saying something similar :(
You have GOT to be fucking joking.
