Fatal Failure, City of the Sausage
>>730868304Did they seriously fucking use AI slop for this shit?
>>730868304Is this AI? CGI? Live Action?
>>730868456yup twitter and reddit are fucking PISSED at the ai trailer
>>730868456The space between the landing skids on the helicopter in Geese's segment changes as it flies away (more than the change in perspective would allow), and Geese has a US flag on his left sleeve that isn't present on his in-game model. Also, Blue Mary's in-game model has both belts visible from behind when she's doing her spinning kicks, but you can only see one belt when she's sitting on the bike. That belt is also much thicker in her in-game model than in the AI shot.In short, yes its AI. Sloppy work, as to be expected of anyone who uses the tech.
>>730868456i didn't realize people hated ai this much but pretty much everyone is mad and now theres no more hype for s2 because of it
THEY REALLY USE AI ON THE TRAILER FOR A DEAD GAME WTF.
>>730869524everything that isn't ingame footage is AI
>>730869601>>730869682I hate AI trash but even I know companies will want to cut costs and try to use that shit, but for fucks sake at least make it not be fucking garbage. It's so painfully obvious and looks the same as your average jeet generated slop.
>>730869601lmao peep the replies https://x.com/GuileWinQuote/status/2011808082368577960 its OVER for snk
>when the cheaply made AI characters look better than the ingame modelsJust make the whole thing with AI
Who needs shitty SNK devs when we have AI?
>>730869738Its such a perplexing choice, too. They could have used nothing but in-game footage and it would have been fine. Cheaper, even.
Usage of AI is inevitable unfortunately.But man, this is the laziest job possible for a company. They deserved all shit
>>730869813>snk fans were made to suffer>said by one of the many people who say "oh this game is cool, i will continue to not play it"fuck off
>>730870135i think it's because they're trying to make the game stand out like everyone else but it's not getting any traction all of the shit they've been doing leading up to the game is shit people who dont even play the game scream at them to do but it's not going anywhere granted a part of that is weird decisions from snk themselves
>company owned by literal billionaires use gigantic AI slop trailer to try and safe their failed rebootLMAO how can you be this fucking retarded???Also the entire thing already leaked, Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star is the guest character
I lost it but there was this screencap from the japanese glassdoor with an snk employee who remaines anonymous but was a higher up. He said that although snk has a shitload of money nobody there has any passion for what they're making and the leadership are just awful at managing people. There are staff members that straight up want their names removed from the credits because they're embarrassed to be tied to their games and dont wanna get laughed at by other colleagues from different studios.Its just sad. Snk should have just been left completely alone, or sold to the chinese or something. But brownoids fucking love them too much to let them die. Brand loyalty is hard to kill.
>>730868304>"fighting game of the year" can't afford to produce an actual trailer with their millions of Saudi Dollars that they're blowing to beg competitive players to play City of the Wolves>pumps out AI slop insteadEmbarrassing>>730869682You don't even need to go into this much detail. It's obvious it's AI from the way characters move. AI video is only good at generating slow movement at the moment: so there's a lot of characters staring into the camera, sitting, sitting... and sitting while playing piano..>>730875109Brutal.
>blowing their money on Ronaldo and some Swedish DJ>blowing their money on million dollar tournaments instead of dozens of $10,000 dollar tournaments that actually get normal people to play your game over a long period of time>blowing their money on weird trailers with e-celebs like Speed>blowing their money on promotional boxing matches>AI trailersThis shit should be a case study in how not to market a product
>>730875802>blowing their money on weird trailers with e-celebs like Speed>blowing their money on promotional boxing matchesgetting big name normie streamers and using some sporting event to promote the game was shit even people here kept telling them to do
>>730868304didnt they just do an animated trailer for kenshiro last week?wtf is this lazy shit?
>>730869734>i didn't realize people hated ai this muchHave you been living under a rock?
>>730868304>fatal furythink theyre gonna release a bloody roar too?
>>730876585i mostly mean that i didn't realize that people would get so furious and boycott a game/studio over an ai slop trailer
>>730868304ai sloppa trailer lmaowhat were they thinking breh?
>>730868304POG STATUS?
>>730869734ai will always be soulless sloppa and you will always be a brown jeet.
>>730876702Saudi owned company.
>>730876782where did i say i liked ai bro. i just find it lazy as fuck more than anything but i was surprised at the visceral hatred for it. check this out for example https://old.reddit.com/r/Fighters/comments/1qdnkae/i_think_im_giving_up_on_cotw/
>>730868304>all hype for the game's release killed by the soccer player>all hype for kenshiro killed by sloppa trailersnk: sandbagging world champions
>>730868304I used to think that Game Freak was the zenith of having the biggest juxtaposition between the amount of cash they have vs. the actual quality of their stuff, but SNK and their oil money is seriously giving them a run for their money
>>730876672>i didn't realize that people would get so furious and boycott a game/studio over an ai slop trailerI'll ask again. Have you been living under a rock for the past few months?
>>730870135CEOs are pushing ai use so they can talk about how their company has "increased ai usage by xx%" which guarantees retarded boomer shareholder interest.
>>730877005it was just a 90 second trailer previewing some characters i didn't expect it to get this much visceral anger towards it. so maybe i have been i guess
>>730868304Lmao fatal slop
>>730868304So the two last one are going to be Tekken characters right?
>>730875802The marketing for this game feels like they're drugged out of their fucking gourds, this board would've exploded if something like this happened to a more popular IP
>>730877741This is the alternative to AI videos
>>730877741i wouldnt be surprised if some saudi nepo hire was made head of marketing. then again it's not like snk isnt perfectly capable of limitless retardation on their own
>>Fighting Game of the Year>Fatal Fury: City of the WolvesOda won big league.
>>730868304>"Well, we already know who's gonna be in the season pass, but might as well check out the trailer-"
>>730868304ai slop lmao
>>730877741>this board would've exploded if something like this happened to a more popular IPIt's a good showing regarding the difference that actual brand-power makes, Cammy's leotard alone is more popular than literally everything that SNK has, and then SNK themselves are trying to make these controversial plays like they're a world-famous company with millions of people who will buy their stuff on principle
Landon Ricketts???
>>730868304>no MessiYOU HAD ONE FUCKING JOB!!!!
>>730868304What a fucking sausage fest of a game.
>>730868304Why libtard hate ai?
>>730876719>washed out eceleb has shit takeDoes he still get anal over pogchamp?
>>730868304Looks badassI will now support your game
why the fuck is Kim the only one with a realistic style? did they really ask chat GPT for a trailer
>>730868304Looks good but what's with all this hate?This is no different from cgi
Yes let's criticize SNK for using AI in a trailer for this game and not for completely selling out to Saudi Arabia for literally nothing, destroying their whole legacy because some Middle Eastern oil barons were bored.
>>730884035Its ok when harada and every other fightan dev did i guess
>>730884035Better this than having at the hands of Jews like their competition.
>>730870125ai gen her blowing me down then
>>730869734Only third worlders are okay with AI sloppa
At this point I'm convinced companies just throw some AI-generated in there for free publicity because they know nobody would really give a shit about a fighting game's season 2 but a trailer full of AI slop which is universally loathed? Headlines and social media reach all over the place that wouldn't care otherwise.
>>730886050that sounds about right. use any spark to get people over
>>730868456Post-XIII SNK might be the most incompetent company I've ever seen and CotW is like the ultimate expression of their utter incompetence. The only good thing about this entire fucking game is Mary's design.>>730874228CotW needs to be studied in marketing classes. They've done literally everything wrong.
>>730881602Messi WOULD NEVER
>>730886912part of that course is going to be dont listen to retards with fanbases that dont care about your product
>>730881602Messi is too good for this shit show
ai is based
>>730887241Messi couldn't handle being punched by a shitposting DJ just like he couldn't handle the Argie league or the Premier.
>>730875109>or sold to the chineseIt was sold to the Chinese. SNK's timeline since 2000 basically looks like this.>SNK goes bankrupt in 2000, its IPs are bought bought a Korean company called Eolith>Under Eolith they make KoFs 2001 and 2002 and Metal Slug 4>SNK's IPs are then bought from Eolith by Playmore which was a separate company set up by SNK's founder; company is renamed SNK Playmore and this is all aroud 2003ish>SNK Playmore goes around for a while until KoFs 12 and 13>They decide that they need to make their graphics lookbetter without abandoning their 2D roots>The specific sprite process they use for the games, however, is so retarded and time consuming and expensive (they're creating 3D models and then tracing them) that it basically kills the company again>SNK Playmore decides to focus on pachinko since they don't have money for game development>Chinese company comes along and buys them, they make KoF XIV and then divest themselves of the pachinko business and possibly some of the pachislot characters in the process>They're owned by a Chinese company until the Saudi prince's company buys them in 2022 and that's where things are at right now
>>730869734Vocal minority.
>>730875802Don't forget all the money thrown at CHINGER CHANGER THE BIGGEST ROCK FANBOY EVER and he played the game for like 5 minutes, basically said he didn't care about it and went back to jerking off to Sephiroth or whatever the fuck it is he does.
>>730876947It's fairly obvious that SNK the studio doesn't have money or if they do the higher ups spend it on literally everything but actual game development. MBS throwing money into a prize pool or forcing his favorite celebrities into the game doesn't mean he's forking over infinite money to fund top tier development. If he was, they might be able to make games that look like they came out after 2015.
>>730887954>Don't forget all the money thrown at CHINGER CHANGER THE BIGGEST ROCK FANBOY EVER and he played the game for like 5 minutes, basically said he didn't care about it and went back to jerking off to Sephiroth or whatever the fuck it is he does.To be fair Max has never been a big fan of SNK games, he was a Rock fanboy, and not because of Garou, but because of Capcom vs SNK 2.
for ai slop this isn't that terribleway better than what multi jillion dollar coca cola did
>>730887954>Don't forget all the money thrown at CHINGER CHANGER THE BIGGEST ROCK FANBOY EVERthey also keep sponsoring other fighting game youtubers (that play fighting games unlike max) but every time you can see that it's a sponsorship and not a genuine video
>Jae HoonHe should have been in the game to begin with. Fuck you sandniggers. I still will not buy it
>>730888497It is actually sad that we can look at the Playmore era and call it more soulful than current SNK, christ.
snk being retarded with ai slop aside blue mary looks cute
>>730868304Honestly kinda based. It'll weed out all the fake SNK fans so only the true fans will stay too. This is the kind of gatekeeping we need and it's how I know SNK will stay based unlike Capcom and ArcSoi
>>730893652It won't even be that. This is like that CoD boycott. None of these losers can help themselves
>>730893652it's even funnier, they're defending SNK artists when the artists themselves are sharing the trailer lmao
>>730868304>gen AI sloppa
No KSI or IShowSpeed, no buy.
>>730884035I do not care about that at all.
>>730893652>It'll weed out all the fake SNK fans so only the true fans will stay too.at this point I think all the true fans are just Fightcade boomers still playing '98
>>730894341the true fans barely post online, not even joking
Is this pass gonna be free like the first one? Or do we actually pay for it this time? I'll just CreamAPI it anyway
>>730895701It's paid. Season 1 was free because of the special edition which is the only way to buy the game. Yep time to crack the DLCs.
Does it even matter? it's just a trailer, it's not like the actual gameplay is made by AI, isn't it?
>>730868456>>730869601>>730869813>>730869682>>730876782>>730886912>AI LE BADDDDyou are brown and trans
>>730868304That's fucking embarassing, but didn't this game gigaflop? I almost can't blame them for making this trailer as cheaply as possible
>>730897270It won fighting game of the year.
>>730870125ok so which tools do people use to make these? I Know Grok can but the censorship is beyond retarded. One second it'll allow anything and one gen later the same prompt gets blocked. Feels like some indian is watching what I'm generating in real time>>730897323Wasn't it the only new fighting game that year?
>>730896229>make them pay from now on to boost salesYeah, surely that will work lol
>>730897351>>Wasn't it the only new fighting game that year?No it had to go up against the incredible Hunter x Hunter Nen Impact, re-releases of old games as collections, and 2XKO which isn't even properly released yet but somehow was named
>>730868304>every other company gets hung when they used AI>they do the same thing tooI'm genuinely confused. What did they think would happen?
>>730899368i do hope that sex with makoto will happen to me one day
>>730899631One day, anon.
>>730897351>Wasn't it the only new fighting game that year?2XKO (somehow included) and Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O., plus a couple of compilations.
The thread is slow as fuck despite being an open invitation to shitpost about AI. Literally no one cares about anything SNK.
>>730902089>Literally no one cares about anything SNK./neog/ loves KoF15 though.
>>730869734People have always been mad about this shitARK got raked over the coals last year when they made an AI slop trailer for their new DLC, pretty sure the original upload got taken down over the backlash because I can only find reuploadshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_tgm2Y873U
>>730903089Because they're retarded. XV is a shity game.
>>730884035>Yes let's criticize SNK for using AI in a trailerThe people criticizing SNK for using AI on a simple trailer are the same ones criticizing SNK for everything on this game, the artstyle, the Ronaldo / Ganacci issue (I agree with this one though, especially Ronaldo's inclusion) including things like B. Jenet's "mannish" face, Blue Mary's "fat" face in this very same trailer.Probably half are redditors who hate the Arab, and /neog/ posters who hate this game because it's delaying the next KoFslop.
>>730896432AI shilling niggers are more likely to be brown.
>>730899368The conceptual reward of being able to cut costs like this makes it, in the eyes of CEOs at least, worth pushing despite the backlash because if enough companies do it maybe the frog will eventually get boiled and people will stop complaining. IF they can get people to eat the slop they'll be able to cut so many costs everywhere, and they're willing to endure the ridicule as long as they think they can succeed at getting people to accept the slop eventually
>>730904032CotW is a bad game in every way, yes. Mindbogglingly stupid marketing, generationally outdated graphics, ugly visual direction, taking all the worst parts of SFDix and modern KoF and smashing them together in a game that appeals to absoluely nobody but a small subset Chinese hyper-autists, wretched cast, all of the new characters are shit, even the story bits (Mr. Big was actually le good the whole time and Akbars himself to take out Jack) are retarded.There is nothing at all about this game that is good. It's an embarassment.
>>730904563>(Mr. Big was actually le good the whole time and Akbars himself to take out Jack)Even the story for COTW straight up feels like they just barfed out something from ChatGPT, it's so bizarre>mfw all that bad blood and cursed energy shit Rock has going on is because he's very distantly Chinese on his dad's side
>>730869734They should, if you want to jerk of to your own AI porn videos or chat bot, be my guest. Don't fucking shove it down my throat and expect for me to give you money pretending you did anything worth of praise when a machine did all the work. Poorly I can add.
>>730899368>retardboomer ceo sends down a mandate that x% of business MUST be done by ai>cant use it in production>cant use it in inter-business dealings, finance or anywhere with legal liability >which leaves...marketing?
>>730878545why is his hair blue?
>>730904563I can't help but notice you glossed over the gameplay in a really vague fashion but were specific in your other critiques.
>>730887954Max was never sponsored and openly showed his disdain for Ronaldo being in the game. Where are you retards getting all this crap?
>>730905771There's nothing vague. It's modern KoF style unga gameplay focused on rushdown and high damage combos with lots of EX moves and supers strung together. Because they decided that it needed a Dixesque Drive system, you're actively punished for playing any other way because defense is complete dogshit unless you know how to parry/red parry and the combo system is also complicated even more by having to incorporate feints and brakes into them. The only good characters are the ones who can take advantage of the systems in the most abusive ways i.e. Hokutomaru and Hotaru or are made for setplay autists (Kain).It's a game that's not at all friendly to anyone who isn't already deep into KoF. Is that specific enough for you faggot?
>>730869734ai is in its majority soulless slopI mean look at this shit, this is the kind of opening the drama novellas here in my shithole country are having nowhttps://youtu.be/hpcHuGzdnGwthis is the shit we used to havehttps://youtu.be/4A2nMVAqC4Qi don't even watch these, my parent do and they found it so fucking jarring they weren't able to not notice it
>>730868304>AiFurther proof this game is going towards the shitter.
>>730870135I hate how right you are.
...
I'm convinced this was done for engagement bait by someone that truly belives that any publicity is good publicity even though Ronaldo's inclusion proved the contrary.
>>730870135I think these corpos are trying as hard as they can to justify the use of AI, so they shove it in everything and try to convince their bosses that its not a waste and that they need it and they're saving money from using it. They probably talk AI up so much and all of its uses so they can't just not deliver on that, and here we are.
