The King Of Fighters XV - SNK's last hope after SamSho2019, 70GB fighting game

As long as KOF XV plays similar to KoF02 it's all good. It's a shame my boy Chin isn't in. I guess I'll go with Clark/Chiziru/Yashiro for starters. Geese and Gato are characters I like too, but they're coming later as DLC.

People said that the saudi prince shit would tone down the sexual shit in the game but I think it turned out the guy was a massive coomer too with a steam account or something (I might be confusing my saudi royal family shit since that thing is a whole web), hope the guy gets a major share over tencent because fuck tencent
I don't play kof to jack off to fictional women. I play it because the gameplay is solid. if porn sells, fine, but it's not the reason why I got into kof
If i can ask then, what gameplay wise don't you like about it? Does it just feel too similar to XIV for you personally because that's understandable if you don't like alot of the stuff XIV incorporated

SNK is going to pump this shit full of dlc so I hope its not just the 4 teams and they leave it at that

I could never get used to pulling out combos from KoF02, personally I think they are harder than XIII

problem with XV is that they toned down the game too much. combos don't need heavy executions now, as any BnB into supers can kill if you have full bar. not like full bar didn't kill in 1 combo in other games but here's this:
-02 and 02um conditions were way fucking hard. you had to run after activating max and it was very tight in many situations, even on corner
-xiii made it easier and added dash after max activation, but added damage scaling and combos took ages to finish
-xiv added literally running after max activation, wall splat CDs and autocombos for more reliable confirms, which was too beginner friendly. but it still had solid XIII-ish combos and they were fun to watch
-xv said fuck complexity and took the SFV route to ease up combo conditions. you had to work your ass up to do damage in 02um and XIII. XV added cancels from LV2 supers into LV3s and every ToD is too simple now.

it's also because I like neutral kof over combo kof and it happened around orochi saga. pretty sure shit already got insane in kof2000 with strikers but 96 still had its own charm with grapplers (those times when command grab whiff wasn't a thing) and 98 with CD neutrals. remember Chris jump CD? yeah

to be honest? mai's marketing was all over the place yes, but it was Eolith that made Angel and reworked on Shermie sprites to make her thick as fuck.

KOF XV readds all of these coomer baits and shows me black woman ass every 5 seconds. I don't want retarded marketing, I want solid KoF that's untouched from shitty Chinese marketing gimmicks

If you are used to newer fighting games, they usually make jumping moves have much more hitstun so its easy to do jumping/hop combos. In more classic games, you will need to time your follow ups earlier.

Toned down combos makes it more like 98, which a lot of people like too. I don't care either way, so long as it's not MVC levels long ass/infinite combos etc.

I'm more used to 98 were you can only really combo from a HK or a HP in the air.

If this is on the unreal engine it'll be much easier to mod for won't it?
Hopefully add a bit more longevity to the game.
It seems a bit bare bones with the high memory size though. Hopefully theres some good stuff tucked away and the devs just havent bothered to optimise it.

Also wish they'd make the main heroes the art of fighting or the fatal fury boys. Actual tough guys, not pure losers like

Kyo = gay boyband guy
K- = gay emo
Ash = gay rentboy
Shun'El = gay scene kid

i've been informed that KOFXV's jukebox doesn't include ASTs.. (arranged soundtrack)

looking at the file size.. how the fuck this game is 70 gigs is beyond me.
The size has put me off this game, 70 gigs for a fighting game with less characters than the previous one is retarded. Also announcing Geese as paid DLC before the game is out is an absolute dick move. As I am not a graphics fags I see absolutely no reason to play this over KOF14.

they swapped some XIV DLCs with core ones instead of improving on the game. making Mary in vanilla roster is a good move but they fucked it up by making Billy a DLC. who tf buys Billy?? he should be busted if that's the case. he was so shit in XIII since he got the dhalsim treatment with his pokes (you can just counter it and he gets the worst trade off)

also a reminder the same game will sell Kim, who's been a playable character since fucking 94. if this ain't a scam then what the fuck is it

They're just shattering expectations
.... expectations of a half decent game
 
apparently the game is out today for Deluxe Edition owners. if you pre-ordered 60 dollars version on console or pc, you'll get the game in next 3 days.

Just got the deluxe version on steam there but cant play it till 17th

Edit: just checked there, its only for consoles.
I like how 2 open betas came out for consoles and not PC, now they release their game earlier for console.

whats the meaning of promoting this game on console so much? doesn't PC have more players? not many people will buy PS4/PS5 for KOFXV, except that one metal slug channel with pedophile tendencies .
 
I used to sell vidya games and vidya game accessories and whenever the Mexicans came into the store there were very probable odds that they were looking for King of Fighters. It was fucking neat.
Funny story, some guy from mexico kicked snk's ass so hard they made angel
