first for seirah
>>491981321I don't remember her being this big.
>>491982195shes big in lots of places
Terry is just boring. Only Americans like him.
>>491983952As Japanese representation of Americans go, Terry is one of the least offensive out there. Plenty of people around the world think he's cool.
>Roxy and Blue Mary What does Capcom mean by this?
>>491983952Kyocuck cope
>>491984423She'll never ever be playable so she's equatable to a cross-company reference
>>491984423Blue Mary and Joe (and Andy when Mai arrives) are relegated to stage guests, so at least Mary gets something to do. It's not even the first time she sings, either.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3XTuBZiC4w
>>491984764Kyocucks deserve all the grief they get.
>>491982802https://files.catbox.moe/f7hrdu.jpg
>>491984423>>491984894Terry needs to put a baby in her
>>491984894Looking forward to seeing Mai's stage.
>>491985147>Butch's used goods>Anton's used good>Baby, thus tying him down, this restraining his freedomIdk anon, Terry sure loves his freedom. He might be good with just being buddies, but then again who knows what CotW will bring.
>>491984894https://youtube.com/watch?v=vFI7beiDcF4
>>491985659That's just Kotobuki Tsukasa doing Kotobuki Tsukasa things.
>>491985626Terry had to spend like 10 years raising a kid.
>>491983952Fuck you. Terry is based. BASED!!https://youtube.com/watch?v=du9SSLBy7Jk
Terry is based because he got a handful of 14 year old ass.
>>491983952>Cool character design>Cool moves>Draw power from Mother Earth>DadHow can you dislike him?!?
>>491988140>Draw power from Mother EarthCYS should name him honorary haskkeshu.

>>491981102Sex
>>491948028>Barely finished game with roster filler because of digging themselves into a grave with the sprites. Ambition was "Grafix"So yes, it was ambitious.>Mediocre game that cut a shitton of corners to exist at all, 2010s equivalent of KOF94That's KOFXV. XIV created a 50 base character roster and set up a new arc despite being funded by wukong's pocket change. Only for for XV to not follow up on any of it and launch with 11 less characters, I don't get how XV was more ambitious to you. >Only ambition was trying to make the Striker system goodGame was made during while SNK was going to shit, yet they still made it look as good as it did as well as the absurd amount of strikers and references they put in.>LITERAL ASSET FLIPSThey're asset flips alright, but at least they didn't cut down the roster while being one.
I sure hope a boxer gets added to CotW and it's a white girl.
>>491983952This
>>492008683>girlthat's a hag with eggs that expired a long time ago
>>492008683I hope Heavy D! gets added.
>>491983952I like Terry and I'm South American so you might be onto something.
>>492008683BUY ME ALCOHOL NIGGA
>>491984894Aside from Andy, who else could cameo in Mai's stage? Maybe Jubei?
>>492009738He's added to a list of characters set to never return.
Do they really have no chance at all?
>>491988140>Orochi thinks Mother Earth suffering is cause of humanity as a whole waging wars and polluting>turns out it's because practitioners of hakkyokuseiken keep draining her juices>Sacred Treasures and Hakkeshu team up to take down Terry>the world is saved
>>492009646One egg produced a kid, or at least that's what her bio says.
>>492015206The same was said about K9999
https://youtu.be/Hl0D5FK3a50?si=QLGzW65CZbmf7KbOInteresting. And here I thought the Capcom vs. SNK games would be in their own collection.
Kyobros… It just keeps happening…
>>492024015I can't believe... the mascot of SNK is being used to advertise SNK... It's over...
>>492024015Because Kyo isn't in Street Fighter 6. At least he's still acknowledged in the trailer.
>>492024015Terry and Mai are Mr. and Mrs. SNK. In a game collection where the flagship titles are Capcom vs. SNK 1 and 2, of course the SNK characters will be featured up front, and who else than their chief ambassadors?
>>492024015For comparison.
>>492024737even Iori looks confused where Kyo is
>>492023267Project Justice is the sequel right? Why not Rival Schools too?
>>492025210Same with Star Gladiator not being included but it's sequel is.
Lol.
>>492025210>>492025468Probably a case of "if you're going to play any game from this franchise, you might as well play the superior sequel."
So how many online matches will just be A-Groove Bison, Blanka, Vega, and Sakura?
>>492024490Hey Mr. ChatGPT, you do realize that Kyo has always been front and center in these crossovers right? He's always been paired against Ryu too which why people are noticing.
>>492024015WHAT THE FUCK SNK
>>492025701Kyo's not at the front of the SNK zeitgeist anymore, though.
>>492025701thisterry was always ken's rival in the crossover games, and kyo was ryu'snot to mention that this shit >>492024737is hilarious because they put iori there but not kyo
>>492025254This was in the marvel ports too IIRC. I already hate them in modern fighters but I have an even worse feeling about putting them in ports of older fighters. As much as people try and act like it's just an accessibility feature, it absolutely changes the gameplay. Can they really say they're preserving the classics like this?
Duck King vs Mai (COTW)
>>492025671More relevant than ever.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bsHoIAZRBc
>>492025701NTA, but that was likely due to King of Fighters being SNK's flagship series at the time. Especially, since there were no new Fatal Fury or Art of Fighting games at the time either. Now with a new Fatal Fury game coming out, SNK probably wants that to be their flagship series again, while KOF will be more of a side thing.
>>492026483This is a big moment for Terry. He's Street Fighter's first ever guest character, AND he's finally returning to his home franchise after 25 years.
>>492025529WHATNOOOOOOO ODA YOU TRAITOR
>>492026871>OdaRetardbro...
>>492025529Capcom when there’s an unsucked western cock
>>492024015Mai and Terry being the only SNK characters in the poster is so funny
>>492028071It's not just CvS there so there more than I expected
>>492028071Well this isn't just a CvS collection, might as well slap the Street Fighter 6 characters in it if you're going to put SNK
>>492028071Terry and Mai represent Capcom vs. SNK 1 and 2.Every character on that poster represents a specific game in the collection.
This CvS rerelease seems a little anti-climactic given how the FGC would hype it up, but I realize in a broader sense these games probably aren’t that popular.
>>492029137I mean we already knew it was happening, it just happened a bit sooner than most expected.Marvel and Capcom were on shit terms for years so the MVC collection came out of nowhere, SNK and Capcom have been teasing the crossovers for years by now and with the SF6 collab it was more so a matter of when.
>>492026330code?
kek
>>492029137>>492029779The Capcom and SNK collabs were teased as early as the first post-lockdown EVO in 2022.
>>492026483This is just a transitory period until KOFXVI. SNK already said they're only making new Fatal Fury and new Art of Fighting so they can use the characters in the main SNK fighting series, The King of Fighters.
>>492024015Leaked next SNK projects:>new AOF, but with young Terry as the protagonist>new SamSho RPG, but Terry traveled back in time to be the protagonist>new Metal Slug with a new protagonist: Terry Bogard!>World Heroes reboot, but the protagonist is Terry>new Last Blade, but Terry traveled back in time once again to be the protagonist>new Psycho Soldiers game, but rebranded as "Psycho Wolves">NGBC 2 but all the characters are different versions of Terry>Fatal Fury prequel with baby Terry as the protagonist
>>492030117You forgot the sequel to Ikari Warriors, where Heidern hires Terry to save president's other daughter from terrorists.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2HsCiiBgKY
>>492030814Fuck off.
>>492029951I laughed when Oda was like “We’re not doing shit for KoF’s 30th anniversary, the marketing team’s handling that.”
Asian Athena is weird
>>492025210>>492025468It's basically all of their NAOMI/Dreamcast games, except for Capcom Fighting Evolution.
>>492025529The worst timeline...
>>492024015>>492024737It can't be any worse than how Dead or Alive treated most of the characters that weren't Marie Rose and Honoka, right?
>>492032279Maki with man face too
>>492033887Kasumi is still ostensibly the protagonist of DOA, so she's still got that going for her. After all, when Mai showed up, she proclaimed Kasumi as her DOA rival. Literally, Mai's story is just>I hear someone around here is calling herself the number one kunoichi in Japan. Well, Mai Shiranui's got something to say about that.
>>492026871>>492033509You do know they're probably talking about Capcom Fighting Evolution and not SvC Chaos, which isn't even in the collection, right?
>>492034394Would Senran Kagura and Yumi have be a better comparison? Especially when she made it into BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle and not Asuka.
>>492029951It's over, snk30thanniversarybros...
>>492029951>>492034668It doesn't release until next year.
>>492033509Nothing of value was lost.
>>492034845I love how the Guy one is just his head on Maki's body.
>>492034845>Those lolisDemitri is gonna get cancelled.
>>492034638I can't speak to who is supposed to be Senran Kagura's chief ambassador. All I'll say is that Kyo has been relegated to a second-string ambassador for SNK, alongside Iori and Athena, while Terry and Mai have asserted themselves as the top ambassadors.
>>492035168Maybe those are the ones being removed.
>>492034668>CONGRATULATIONS! YOU WON A KYO KUSANAGI WALLPAPER>Download it at www.kof30th.com
>>492024015>even Shinkiro doesn't give a shit about Kyo anymore
>>492034845All of those excepting the ones actually from Darkstalkers are pretty bad. SNK did Midnight Bliss better...
>>492035489Is that Ian from Smosh?
>>492034668>snk30thanniversarybrosThat's just KoFfags and Kyofags throwing a hissy fit. FF didn't get as much for it's 30th and neither did MS for it's 25th. That's just a tiny taste of what other felt when they didn't get jack shit for 20 years.
>>492035023Hauzer is just his hear on Sakura's friend's body too. At least they acknowledged the Indian Loli from the movie.
>>492036274Has any of SNK's IPs besides KOF gotten anything for their anniversaries?
>>492034845Love this lo-... i mean, r-reference:https://youtube.com/watch?v=bOzdV5nLAHs
>>492036669I think they didn't even get a logo.
>>492036274I'm a Kyofag and even I think people are overreacting.
I wish Last Blade could get a website...
>>492026203Nigga, CvS2 was the originator of Modern Control with EO-ism which ppl legit used online on the xbox version. This is the one boomer game where adding Modern is warranted.
>Kyofags having a tantrum over some drawings even though he's still in CVS and SVC>Meanwhile K'
>>492038671Yeah, CvS 1&2 infamously didn't feature K' or the Ikari Warriors.
>>492038671>>492038892Wasn't K' supposed to be in Capcom All stars or whatever was called?
>>492038892Why was that? At least Match of the Millenium had Leona.>>492039267I thought that was Kyo.
>>492039421Capcom staff picked the roster and I think there were mandates to not include KOF characters that show up past 96
>>492039652That's still no excuse for missing the Ikaris.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nszXkHx5Y-k
>>492040015We could've had Leona vs. Cammy, but noooo.
>>492040015Hell, Athena wasn't even in CvS1, but Vice was for some reason. That was also weird to me, Vice being in these games without Mature. Then XII did the opposite.
Getting there, chuds.
>>492040528I guess they wanted another grappler.
>>492040528And then there was Choi in SVC and Chang in 2003.
How long until Terry and Mai appear in Fortnite? I wouldn't be surprised if they did?
>>492012369Depends on what stage Mai gets. They may go all out and give her her FF2 river raft stage.
HURRICAAAAAANE UPPAAAH
>>492025607Though, they still included both Capcom vs. SNK games and both Power Stone games.
>>492044575Power Stone 1 and 2 are two very different beasts, so it's fair to include both of them.
>>492044575CvS1 is a better game of the two though
>>492039267Yeah. Speaking of, this release could easily have the location test version of that game as a bonus.
>>492045474I just don't like that the Capcom side of the roster is just Street Fighter and Morrigan.
>>492046539I prefer SVC Chaos too, anon.
>>492046539The Morrigan sprite lives on. In 20 years, when Street Fighter 12 receives its first Darkstalkers guest, it will still be the Morrigan sprite.
>>492038542Yeah, especially since CvS2 was also on Gamecube, which doesn't exactly have the best controller for fighting games that aren't Smash Bros. I never played the Gamecube version of Soul Calibur 2 though.
Is it finally time to admit that fighting games aren't supposed to use 6 buttons and CVS Pro is actually better than CVS2?
>>492037998Based Kyobro.
>>492040729Better be modeling some pubes on her, anon.
>>492047945Capcom is adamant 6 buttons still means something by 2024 so we can't just move the fuck on
>>492044034"My bar, Joe! WTF!" - Richard Meyer
>>492039652The story goes the mandate was past 97 but I think you can tell looking at the roster and boss decisions that CVS1 was made as a analogue to KOF94 while CvS2 follows from KOF95 with the development surrounding Rugal. Had they actually gone through with the sprite fg swan song CVS3 for 2002 Capcom briefly pondered on, you can bet Goentiz would have been the SNK boss alongside Ikaris and maybe Chizuru.
>>492046874Tatsunoko vs. Capcom was a big deal because it was the first time Morrigan was playable outside her Darkstalkers sprite.
>>492050909It was also the last game to feature Morrigan's original Japanese voice actress. Later games would replace her with Rie Tanaka.
>>492050909Didn't MVC3 reuse her Tatsunoko model or am I gaslighting myself
Pick one (from Snk)
>>492051618The Athena looks cute. If the Leona cosplayer had some muscle I'd pick her tho.
>>492051618Athena.
Mai is an old and busted hag!
>>492054695Here's hoping. Her FF3-FFWA stance is better. Fuck KoF for never adopting it.
>>492051618Athena is cute, but I'll take Nako.
>>492055695Yeah, FF3 Mai is best Mai, but honestly I'm just tired of the XIII stance. I'd take anything.
Haha they're replacing Kyo, haha they forgot Kyo again. So funny. Reminder to the Terryfags that the new SNK projects, inluding COTW are all building-blocks to SNK's real main franchise, the one that actually took the world by storm The King Of Fighters as confirmed by your savior Oda himself. Enjoy the temporary relevancy Terryfags, cause when KOFXVI hits the scene. It's back to being a glorified cameo with you all.
>>492060201Yeah no shit he's gonna go back to doing nothing in KOF, that's how like 80% of the roster is.Terry won't be any less neglected story wise than Kyo, who'll take a backseat to Shun'ei or whatever other new characters they throw in.
>>492062270Yeah but at least Kyo will be in the cover artwork like he always was :')
Look. There he is.
>>492060201I was gonna write something else, anon but Are you ok?
>>492064324>behind TerryThey know what they're fucking doing
>>492064864What does that say about Ryu being all the way in the back?
>>492065096He's at the top
>>492064324Terrance Bong is front and center as he should be.
>Iori vs Shermie back when Shermie was revealed in XV>Angel vs Maxima and Antonov back when "39 characters" trailer was posted>now Terry vs Kyo/neog/ rivarlies are funny. Surprisingly no waifu wars too.
>>492060201CotW is gonna make a bigger splash in the industry than KOF has the last 20 years. Just wait until Kyo doesn't do anything in KOFXVI because the plot was frozen into an infinite battle against the Hakkeshu where nothing happens
>>492024737Chaos's roster was so weird that I love it
>>492051618Nako and Yuri.Thank you.
>>492069317>MMZ Zero, Mars People, Goddess Athena, Firebrand, and DimitriiHell fucking yeah
>>492067532>>492064826>>492062270Kyo will go back to being front and center in the boxarts, as well as get into crossovers to promote KOFXVI. Street Fighter 6 will be the last time you'll see Terry on anything.>storyTerry is already doing nothing in his series. He'll job to Rock at COTW then sit at the sidelines just like he did in MOTW.
>>492069780>Will go back to>WillI like how you're only theorycrafting as if it's guaranteed when Kyo can't even fucking renew his rivalry in current promo material with Ryu for games that heavily focus on him to begin with. It's not a good look. Kyo's future is going to be constant Sacred Treasures duty fighting Team Orochi and Goenitz while Benimaru gets all the attention
>>492070087>I like how you're only theorycrafting as if it's guaranteed when Kyo can't even fucking renew his rivalry in current promo material with Ryu for games that heavily focus on him to begin with.Yes because they're busy promoting the guy from Smash so they can sell not-his-game.>Kyo's future is going to be constant Sacred Treasures duty fighting Team Orochi and Goenitz.That's more than Terry will get ever get to do on his OWN series again.
>>492067437>back when "39 characters" trailer was postedyeeeep
>>492028071you have proto kula in the poster too
>>492069780COTW is there just to finish Rock's storyline. Next FF, there will be a new FF protagonist sharing a spotlight with Terry, like all those guys from SamSho that no one cares about share the spotlight with Haohmaru (Shizumaru, Kazuki, Shiki, Asura, Seishiro, Yoshitora, Andrew, Suzuhime, Yashamaru)
>>492024015its Kyover
>>492051618the sakura cosplayer from MIDE-297
>>492073781>there will be a new FF protagonist sharing a spotlight with TerryThat won't happen, they'll just stick with Rock. There's no way SNK is capable of creating one that would go over as well as him nowadays anyways.
More like Straightenkun
>>492074272>there will be a new FF protagonist sharing a spotlight with Terrythey are adding noctis to cotw
More like Shungai
>>492067437I thought Kyo vs. Terry was always a thing, but it used to be other way around. Terry fans complaining about Kyo. Meanwhile, Ryo fans have to watch their boy lose to Mai in Destiny because she's more popular. As for waifu wars, it's no contest who the best girl is.
>>492074354They have the same voice actress. Does that count as selfcest?
>>492074272>There's no way SNK is capable of creating one that would go over as well as him nowadays anyways.They love to think that they do. Just look at Shun and Yasha, this is the future of SNK of today.
>>492067532That will never happen anon
>>492075085I need Athena's crotch/pubes on my face.
>>492076709they are that group of old disconnected adults who run a secondary company that makes secondary versions of more popular products and go like "hey, look, it's a pokerman, don't you like collecting pokermans??? here is a pokerman, we know you will enjoy it!!"like when la gear made their own versions of the reebok pumps
Anyone planning on being a Smart Style player in cotw? I love Modern in SF6 so seeing that it will be in cotw pretty much sold me on the game.
>>492077662No. Spinning your stick around in circles is not hard, just do it.
>>492077662if I run into smart control players in COTW, I'm just picking a zoner like Kain and laming them out until the timer hits 0.I already do this in SF6
>>492078449fuck off, /co/
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-_unC-g_rY
>>492078147It's not about being hard, I just rather not do it if I have the choice because I find it more fun to not do it.
>>492078449Falcoon = Based>>492078675Stay mad, Jenetranny.
>>492077662Maybe I might mess around with it to annoy ppl online but overall, compared to Modern, Smart in cotw just looks so sauceless. It's like if Modern in sf6 was just the SP button & Auto combos and you couldn't do much of anything else.
>>492031524Rip, marketing team ;_;7https://youtu.be/LAjWXvQE2bs
>>492076709Whats wrong with Yasha? Never got the hate for him.>>492077662No.
>>492078449yeah both jenet and mai have somewhat weird faces in COTW. It wouldn't be all that noticeable in a vacuum if it wasn't for KOFXV giving their faces a big blow up in comparison.I was amused reading the #1 Angel hentai guy complaining about it recently. Still better than what Capcom did to Terry's face though
>>492077662>Anyone planning on being a Smart Style player in cotw?Yes. I will give them a go. And then I will go back to tradition controls. Exactly as I did with sf6.
>>492083343Here we go again, pretending that COTW's female faces look bad or something after doing so with XV. But apparently XV has been good this whole time now...
>>492077662I don't think it will be that good for competitive play anon but who knows. I'm too used to classic controls to do it>>492083240>Whats wrong with Yasha?Nothing. You are quoting someone that spends every day talking shit about SNK stuff in this thread.
Don't even hate Terry but i'm sick of seeing him everywhere. Hope Rock or Kyo get used for crossovers next.
>>492083729>Rocknah>Kyosure
>>492083949Why not Rock? He's cool and the maximilians like him and would be "hype" for him as they say.
>>492083240>Whats wrong with Yasha? Never got the hate for him.Nothing? I don't dislike him personally.And I actually like Shun-Ei too, his design goes a bit overboard, but he's fun to play. Too bad his gameplay was a bit TOO fun in his debut game compared to the characters heavily cut-up in XII-XIII, but it's okay now.The point was that the general public doesn't care about new protagonists.You can see a similar trend with all the times Capcom tried to replace Ryu and failed, even with the latest push. In fact, Tekken is probably the only old franchise where this worked.>>492083692>Nothing. You are quoting someone that spends every day talking shit about SNK stuff in this thread.Hey! Don't confuse me with that schizo.
>>492024737>>492024015Kyo is no longer popular nor a main figure.Fucking hell, Benimaru in the last game was more important, plot-wise
>>492083545Was that a sentiment? I've personally always liked he KOFXV faces, mostly. It was KOFXIV that was always ugly to me.
>>492054695
>>492083343i have less of a problem with mai than i do jenet mainly because jenet's is rooted in her jawline and slightly hooked and protruded nose features>>492083545i don't recall saying most of xv's faces don't suck, in fact it's an ongoing narrative for me
Sup
>>492086069If she suffers back aches what about Angel and Shermie?
>>492087131It's "The King of Bogards" now
>>492087864https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHFBsfYrjHo
>>492087809One is a modified human and the other one isn't even human.I'm not seeing Vice or Mature complaining about a backache despise being some of the largest and oldest girls.
>>492087131
>>492088441Shingo's ending has Terry give him his hat.
>>492087131>>492088441I liked the parts where Terry, his rival Iori, and Chizuru took down Goenitz, CYS, and Orochi.
Why did Kyo get Ash Crimson'd by SNK/Capcom?
>>492088778What about Ryo?
>>491983952why do kyofags seethe so much over terry?
When will she be back?
>>492089213NEVER EVER
>>492088778Because the fujos stopped buying SNK games.
>>492024015Terry and Mai are SNK's Ryu and Chun Li. This has been obvious for decades.
>>492089213Theres an Art of Fighting in prototype stage as we speak.She's definitely in.
How do you feel about Terry speaking normal English?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOgqzwzzn4ohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDPhkX2oMmQ
>>492030102>Kyofag cope
>>492088898Wait for AOF4 and you'll see him as the final DLC for tekken 8
>>492089608There's no "SNK's Ryu and Chun-li". Stop saying this retarded shit.
>>492089819I feel the same like I did when KOFMI launched.
>>492090878Is that good or bad?
>>492089819all dubs are shit
>>492091072That's "I'm sticking with Japanese VO"
>>492090624There is. It's Terry and Mai. Keep crying Kyofag.
>>492091482Is that also the case for an American cartoon getting dubbed in Japanese?
>>492091562No there isn't crapcuck. What are you going to tell me Shingo is SNK's Dan? Jin is Bandai's Ryu? or some retarded shit like that?
>>492091710Yes. What people (mostly americans) don't get is that a lot of works are made with the voice delivery in it's native language in mind.
>>492093415Keep seething kyocuck
>>492093415>Shingo is SNK's Dan?According to Capcom, Joe is the Dan
>>492093584I don't think the Japanese would really appreciate you saying that Engrish is the intention
Terry should fuck Yuki.
>>492049365>"Oh! My bar!"
>>492070857>>492069780Do Kyofags get off on their delusions?
>>492094934>they censored "god" to "car" for the snes game because zionists would sue capcom in america
>>492095313That was common in games back in the day to remove religious elements in localization. Like in Castlevania when the cross was called a boomerang and the holy water was called a firebomb.
>>492095773i mean, it was in the arcade game, so it wasn't a local issue, it was an snes issue
Am I the only person who likes Kyo and doesn't have a hateboner for Terry or vice versa?
>>492095925Yeah, like replacing Poison and Roxy with two guys in the SNES version.
>>492096267yeah, that was the only actual censorship they received initially in any part of america, was thatand then the sega cd version with extended clothingit's kind of annoying when people say "they got turned into trannies in america" when that part was initially false and capcom never acknowledged the new half thing in the super famicom version's manual until the capcom classics collection (vol 1)
>>492096082Kyo is the little dog to Terry.
>>492096859whoops, meant to say, capcom USA never acknowledged it until then
How do you feel about lore and story in most SNK games? I always hear FGC people say that stuff is always background noise regardless if its Tekken/SF/GG and that it shouldn't be given much attention to.
>>492097512I have to agree with the FGC people. These are fighting games. Their main appeal is players beating up their friends or others online or at tournaments with their favorite characters who's skillset and playstyles mesh with them. Their stories does not matter to these players nor should they be that important. Lore is even more irrelevant.
>>492093415Yuri is SNK's SakuraOh, wait...
>>492097512depends on the gamess has some of the better material of snk games just because of the environment and time period alone allowing them the work the story the way they dokof is the sloppiest messiest halfassed shit ever
>>492097512Nishiyama made fighters to tell stories. I think there's more potential, but I don't like the decision to make a shitton of cutscenes be the "story". One or two now and then is fine but when you spend like 4 hours watching a shitty anime like Guilty Gear then I think it fails as a storyEOST is literally what I wanted to see for SP content, just with a South Town overworld. But it's closer to NMH2 than NMH1 so it's no big deal to me
>>492097771Stop samefagging
>>492097810>>492097945>>492097697Then we agree that FF being more focused on story compared to KoF is a good thing? Since CotW is closing out the story of FF.Do you also feel CotW should close out every loose thread from MotW?
>>492097945>but I don't like the decision to make a shitton of cutscenesshitton? which game is thisa shitton of cutscenes is mgs4kof has like a first third, second third, preboss, then postboss and ending, it's overly formulaic and with too much generic stock cutscene usagethink that was all based on the way ff1 did it too
>>492098465>think that was all based on the way ff1 did it tooWell that makes sense given FF gave birth to KoF.
>>492098447>Then we agree that FF being more focused on storyi'd say it has a better platform to execute a story than kof does, to say it's more focused is harder to say because it's not like ff has more cutscenes in generaland in fact games like rbs don't even have but a simple dialogue exchange between two jpegs, most ff endings are just a single pic with some attached comments/dialogue, and it took until motw to get a bit more deep about it
>>492098447Objectively yes I'm tired of brands shitting out half-assed stories that exist to say "stay tuned for the next installment!" because it's just an excuse to not put effort into satisfying the players. It's a bad trait to make you artificially interested in the next installment>>492098465If you paid attention to my post, I said Guilty Gear. I don't really blame SNK games for this issue, if anything they're the opposite issue of not having enough cutscenesFF1 is one of my favorite games because it has perfect cutscene pacing and lets you know enough of what you need to know in order to justify playing the game
>>492099246And now that CotW has more hardware space, they could get even deeper than MotW did.>>492099319The stories for fighting games are not the main priority so you can't exactly blame companies for not putting that much effort into them.
I just remembered this exists.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qJL_uxYQwkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzZ7iL7RWGQ
>>492099951Man the lane system was pretty fun if you didn't suck at the game.
>>492099951Strange to think how that IP will likely be dormant forever.
>>492099319>If you paid attention to my post, I said Guilty Gear.o my bad guess you kinda implied it because i didn't know who nishi was>>492099810>so you can't exactly blame companies for not putting that much effort into them.arcsys put a lot into them especially with blazblue that it's what gets talked about in bb threads instead of lobbies
>>492100502You wish, Kyocuck.
>>492100537>arcsys put a lot into them especially with blazblue that it's what gets talked about in bb threads instead of lobbiesExcept those discussions are with the minority. The majority only care about BB in official settings for the same reason they care about other fighting games. Story is just extra sauce to the meal but it's not exactly needed.
>>492100787I think they were talking about Fighters History. Isn't Data East dead?
>>492100787>>492101050Yes, I was talking about Fighter's History.
>>492101050It kinda is yeah. But we could get a surprise revival.
>>492100945>The majority only care about BB in official settingswhat do you mean, "official settings"the story mode in each bb game is pretty officialand very longand lots and lots and lots of voiced dialogue
>>492101274Official settings in like tournament scenes and such. Like EVO.
We should all get all on our knees and praise and thank CapGAWD for giving SNK the most press they've had since Terry was revealed for Smash Brothers.
Pretty sad Capcucks are so obsessed with SNK games.
>>492101730i'm talking about discussion, most of the people who are ~fans~ of bb don't really play other people~official~ is not some tournament, that's just tournament settings, say that next time so it's not confusingno duh that those people are just focused on winning their only source of income there
>>492088936Babbies used to getting shit yearly, but their guy getting a bit of a joke played on him for a couple months and suddenly it's a travesty.Unlike Kyo they can't take the heat.
>>492103497People can be fans while competing in tournaments. That's a stupid thing to say. If anything, those guys care more about the games than those who only care about the story and lore.
>>492093529LMAOTerrybro btw. I can take a joke at my guy's expense.
>>492103843>Unlike Kyo they can't take the heat.fuck you for making me laugh at this corny joke
>>492104054yeah, it's a stupid thing to say that it's "official", it's not typically OFFICIALLY sanctioned by the company that owns the ip, stop using that word, most tourneys are just allowed because it helps their publicity and nintendo usually dgaf about that publicity because they want to be disney so they go the opposite direction and lol at tourney fags and their "official" settingspeople care more about making money by playing the game at a tournament*misnomerization is not just a mountain in taiwan
>>492096082I prefer Terry and I like Kyo well enough. Some Kyosisters are kinda whiny, though.
>>492104103Why did you reply to your own post, Kyobro?
>>492104285You might actually be autistic.
>>492104702and you are indeed certifiably dumb
>>492088441>>492087131Fuck me you guys beat me to it
I miss the days when Kyo was fighting mutants..
>>492107621There was also that time he fought zombies.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAp2dJkDrsU
>>492105120This piece is funny because it’s obvious Shinkiro wasn’t used to drawing people from that angle.
Kyo sisters confirmed niggers?
>>492105120Terry and Andy actually unironically have the same face here.
>>492109441Oh they want Kyo dead...
>>492109441If only they knew Kyo is racist
>>492114024wtf I like Kyo now
>>492073781>>492098447>>492099319That's what upsets me about the idea of COTW being seen as the last GD/FF game: it's only the second game with Rock as a protagonist. It'll fell anti-climatic to end his story at his second entry, especially if they'll handle anything on Geese's legacy and if there's anything special in the Heinlein bloodline.
>>492111095Kyotards need to get hanged
>>492114731stories don't need to drag on.
>>492114731I don't like the "3 game" structure that KOF has in the slightest. People pretend the Orochi Saga is a trilogy when really it's a duology. Orochi shit starts in 96 and ends in 97. Rugal using "Orochi" powers is incredibly negligible in the grand scheme of things, especially when Iori is boasting about being able to utilize that power in 95 without imploding like he does. Rugal's story arc is also 2 games as a resultMeanwhile the NESTS and Ash Sagas are horrifically unbalanced with the first two games setting up an arc that ends up going completely fubar with the third game in different ways. It's also why people clown on XV being the end of Shun's arc because it left things way too open for most of the roster to need another installment to end these arcs. This is all me bitching about SNK in particular, less said about other fighters like Street Fighter or Tekken, the betterSo no, I don't want CotW to have loose threads. I want fucking answers and if they want to make another Fatal Fury then they better come up with a damn good justification to continue the series instead of just going "Oh, we'll tell you NEXT TIME"
Can we at least replace Terry and Kyo with this fine fellow?
>>492116491We also need to find out more about the Dragon Spirit because iirc, one of the staff in SNK had it planned that Kensou would join Ron and Hizoku in order to get the answers he needs.
>>492111095Ryu - I seek strong opponents. I enjoy the battle.Terry - I seek strong opponents. I enjoy the battle.Kyo - I'm a martial artist because my dad said so. He's a dick.And because of my bloodline, I can throw fire. Please stop involving me.
>>492117719Based Kyo taking a stand
>>492118835A stand to the supporting characters' section LMAO
Say HELLO to the NEW hero team in KOFXVI!
FACTS
>>492121868but calling her aunty would acknowledge her as andy's wife
>>492122024Man Kyocuck tears taste so damn yummy.
>>492122024Anon, Terry has been showing up in stuff rather than Kyo since before smash. Not just Terry, but others as well.
>>492121868>When they call you an "Old hag"
>>492089608And yet barely anyone knows Mai. Terry got big after smash but really, comparing them to Ryu and Chun li is mean kek. Snk as a whole is a joke, it's sad seeing people fight about who slightly more known
>>492126378>Capcuck delusion
>>492126605it's all they have after how garbage sf6 is and how cotw is going to mog it in quality. crapcom had to beg snk to lend their characters to save that trashheap.
>>492126730Cotw saving snk when the infinitely more popular franchise is barely alive? I'll namefag just to repost this in a year and laugh
To those that want crossover, do you want SNK vs Capcom or King of Fighters vs Street Fighter? You really need to think about this because which one you choose will result in getting characters you want or don't want. Expect 40 characters from each company with a total of 30 of them being character locks (Ryu, Chun Li, Terry, Mai, etc...) so you will only have 25 characters from each company.I personally want King of Fighters vs Street Fighter rather than SNK vs Capcom because the latter will just be filled with the characters that we always play which to me is boring.What do you think?
>>492127542yet here you are on the snk general seething out of your mind over the game that will dab on trash fighter 6 lmao
Inb4 the next KoF come around and they do a DLC pack structure like CotW and Kyo is left as DLC.
>>492127560Roster for something like this doesn't matter, it's guaranteed to succeed. Between metal slug characters, smamsho, NEST and Orochi saga chars, snk can make any combinations and it'd include fan favorites. Same with Capcom What matters is how the game plays, hence MvC2 became huge
>>492128189It's honestly pretty likely to happen.
I love Terry being a dumbass just like how I liked him slapping Kula's ass.
Why bother posting something online at this point?
>>492122024smashfags wont play any kof or any other fighting game in general
>>492130478Can confirm as a TO, none of the smash wanted anything to do with regular fighting games. Not even when I organized a strive tourney were they interested. Same with mk players its like they live in their own safe space bubble.
>>492132546To be fair to Smashfags the game objectively does play different enough that I can understand why people would find Smash fun but not traditional fighters. Even with Ryu, Ken and Terry carrying traditional inputs with them they still play like Smash characters at the end of the dayMK has no excuse I don't know what conditioning Netherrealms has accomplished to make some of the scrubbiest of FGC faggots
>>492130478>>492132546Samefag
>>492128236>Roster for something like this doesn't matter, it's guaranteed to succeed.Oh but it does matter. No point trying to ignore the failing of MvCi because it didn't have X-Men characters.
the death match between these two will be kino
>>492132904incorrect
>>492100945>Story is just extra sauceIs that why fighting games get shat on whenever they release without story modes?
>>492100945>Except those discussions are with the minority.Yeah that's why most players barely break the 10 wins online trophy. You're an idiot. The FGC is all idiots.
>>492141326>>492140218your mad is showing "lorefag", we know you're shit at these games, go read a book, cuck
>>492142459Oh should've figured it's you, concession accepted as usual.
>>492142532>c-concession accepted>being as retarded as the local schizoOkay retard, keep seething about how gameplay comes first before your lorefaggotry
>>492143240Says the faggot seething about shit that doesn't affect him for no reason and making up imaginary arguments to be mad about
>>492130298I tried
>>492143338>Says the faggot seething aboutYou mean the faggot who woke up to seethe about old posts and was so butthurt that he had to respond to them individually? >>492141326>>492140218
>>492144202Here you go again with your mental illness, and you have the gal to call anyone a schizo.Love how everytime you get btfo-ed you immediately resort to "s-samefag!!" and deflect immediately from said subject.
>>492145106Oh right. Forgot screenshot. But of course it's always me, "the lorefag" replying to you. Everyone here who clowns on you is me actually°
>>492145106Are those not your blatantly butthurt posts then? Are you going to deny it? Because if they aren't then why are you responding to me in the first place?You're seething at getting exposed, sorry to see that you're so mad at being made fun of but you're a jokeNext time don't make retarded posts, retard
yeah bro, those mysterious posts seething about the same thing in the same writing style are totally legit, and people call me schizo this is why the game only sells 9k, lorefags don't buy or play games and would rather watch maxdood
>>492145106>>492145289>"no u schizo!" when you were the first one who made a schizo statement>>492142532>Oh should've figured it's youRetards who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones
>>492145302>>492145704This is exceedingly embarrassing even for you, at least make it fun for me and think of more creative ways to deflect. You could've ran away like you always do to try and save face. By the way, how's your anti-singleplayer campaign against COTW going? Last I've checked you were so adamant on it having nothing but an arcade mode? Or are you going to deny that too secondaryfag?
>>492121868Tired joke
>>492127560SNK vs Capcom. I think a team format based on the games and gender would work best. Yes, a lot of characters will be gone, but the cast will be well distributed.>Team KOF (male)Kyo, Iori, Shun'ei>Team KOF (female)Beth, Kula, Isla>Team Fatal Fury (male)Terry, Kim, Alfred >Team Fatal Fury (female) Mai, Blue Mary, Xiangfei>Team AOF (male)Ryo, Lee, John Crawley >Team AOF (female)Yuri, King, Kasumi>Team Garou (male)Rock, Tizoc, Hokutomaru >Team Garou (female)Jenet, Hotaru, Kuan
>>492146082>n-no uIt's only okay when YOU do it huh? Dumb hypocriteKeep crying because the game isn't pandering to idiots like you who don't buy games, you are the one attempting to save face because YOU have always been a joke who cries about the "FGC"Games having story is fine but these games main focus will never be the story, it's always been and will always be gameplay first no matter what, so keep losing, loserMaybe someday you'll learn to do a basic bnb and realize that that, I wouldn't count on that happening anytime soon though
>>492146082>By the way, how's your anti-singleplayer campaign against COTW going? Last I've checked you were so adamant on it having nothing but an arcade mode?Oh yeah, show me an archive link of this, loreschizo
>>492146509I doubt there will be teams, it will be singles like before that you can make into a team.
>>492077662Curious. Who so far looks like they will be the strongest in Smart Style out of the known roster? I can see Rock Howard being solid, one button air fireball and DP is always good to have. Also if his Knuckle super has invincibility than he will be a real menace in neutral once he has a super in stock. And there is no dmg nerf on shortcuts in smart right?
>>492127560SNK vs Capcom, but without characters originated in fighting games at all.Who cares about Terry and Ryu? It's all about Athena vs Arthur ever since they got awful Micronics ports.
>finding a boyfriend to cosplay your ship with youunfathomably based yume
>>492146626>Keep crying because the game isn't pandering to idiots like you who don't buy games, you are the one attempting to save face because YOU have always been a joke who cries about the "FGC"Same regurgitated garbage you've been spewing for months. Why would anyone who doesn't actually play the games even care about the characters or story anyways? And COTW has actual side content so i don't get what you're trying to prove here.>Games having story is fine but these games main focus will never be the story, it's always been and will always be gameplay first no matter what, so keep losing, loserIt's funny how you keep pushing for the idea that I don't care about gameplay when i've literally agreed with you before that gameplay comes first but since you have 0 leverage on me you go on to make up what fits your agenda, this all started because you've randomly started spazzing out about lorefags and maximilians or whatever and you've been accusing me since then for every reply you get. My argument was that it was a main part of their appeal back then, and that COTW will have large side content and it did. Pretty sure you're the one who lost there buddy.>>492146748I don't keep tabs on disingenuous mental institution escapees.
>>492145106>Love how everytime you get btfo-ed you immediately resort to "s-samefag!!" and deflect immediately from said subject.that's some familiar territory when calling every post that shat on kofxv something like that and then saying it's because of the capcom illuminati or arctrannies or anger from lack of sylvie
HOLY SHIT, shut the fuck up retard, no one cares fucking sperg

>>492156353fuck off rooflemonger
When the cotw beta drops, do you think it will get cracked like the SF6 and Tekken beta did?
>>492133193You mean like how CvS1 and CvS2 had the Capcom side be mostly from Street Fighter?
>>492156805Maybe if someone is really bored.
>>492127560The thing is weren't the previous crossovers already Street Fighter vs. King of Fighters, mainly due to the roster being mostly from those two games? Who's to say a futur CvS or SvC wouldn't do the same thing. Though, KOF is already a crossover, so you could probably just count the ones created for it like Kyo, Iori, etc.
>>492156805Speaking of a beta, I'm kinda worried about how a beta will be received by Modern audience. Players today are so used to fighting game betas providing fancy arcade sim lobbies whereas Cotw is going to drop with an old fashion menu based rooms. Players new to SNK titles might find this to be a sign that the game was cheaply made. Hopefully the netcode is 10/10 in the beta.
>>492156805they will probably drop it only for consoles like XV
>>492168028and it will drop the ball on the first beta just like xv
>>492171162the beta was pretty good
I had COVID during the last XV beta.
Burning Fight 2 when?
>>492188741https://youtu.be/-ToF97gsAKA?si=4Azz_lzV1_Pg5WbH
>>492145549Ok lorefag
>Yuri can barely muster one Haoh Shou Kou Ken in AOF3 before getting tiredSo this is the power of Kyokugen prodigy...
>>492200056I thought Yuri wasn't playable in AOF3.
>>492200056She needs another Sakazaki inside her before she can muster enough power
>>492200787She isn't. It's a pre-battle sprite cutscene.She's chasing down Robert with Ryo, and IIRC she was the one who roped Ryo in the whole ordeal.
I love Mai's COTW design!
How would they pull a new AoF? With KoF and FF was easy but the only way with AoF4 is going full 3D Fighter or going to another genre
>>492200056>>492200787She wasn't, and it wasn't a HSGK. In Robert's campaign, in the cutscene before the final match with Wyler, Robert gets bowled over by buffed Wyler. Before he finishes him off, Yuri distracts Wyler with a single Kou'ou Ken, leaving her winded. This gives Robert just enough time to get back up and win the day.https://youtu.be/Esyxx2KHAx8&t=721
Listen, I don't care what side you're on but you have to acknowledge that Terry being pushed while Kyo is abandoned represents SNK disregarding the regions that held them up for years, all to pander to secondary americans. Sickening.
>>492203212
>b-but muh twitter literal who said-Ahh shut the fuck up nerd.
So kofxv is on sale on steam, how's the playerbase, is it active?
>>492203750Does it discredit the central point, though?
>>492204001Doesn't matter, we all know the history here. The problem isn't Terry being there, but more so how SNK always replaces Kyo's place with him while the latter is nowhere to be found like he wasn't the SNK central point of the crossovers.
>>492204489SNK has multiple ambassadors. Terry getting his shine back, including finally returning to his home franchise after a long time away, puts him in a better position to represent his company. Besides, it's not like Kyo isn't there in the marketing.
>>492204742So if Art of Fighting 4 were to come out instead of City of the wolves would it have been okay to plaster Ryo all over crossover game covers instead of Kyo? And to pretend like he was always a focus? Terry can be in the game covers, he just needs to hang out in the back there, next to Mai.
>>492205129Potentially?
>>492203589By this logic, Ryo too.
>>492205757>beats that Duck guy again>sees a promising looking street fighter reminding him of himself at his age>smiles and invites him to a fightMr. Karate II is too based.

>>492203881It's usually around 300-500 which is good enough to still get games in my experience. Don't be intimidated that it's all dedicated players either, there's still a lot of inexperienced people to go up against.
>>492213289Yes, it is honki ni natta Mr. Karate, but the setting of the game kinda allows to call it "Nightmare".

>>492127560The point of the series is to have as many representatives as possible. Why do you think Capcom eventually expanded from Marvel Super Heroes vs Street Fighter into Marvel vs Capcom?So my answer would definitely be SNK vs Capcom. I would like to see obscure characters like from the PS1 3D Samurai Shodown game, or even some Maximum Impact characters in a 2D or 2.5D environment. We did get to see Shiki in SvC Chaos though.
>>492127560SNK vs. Capcom >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> KOF vs. Street FighterIt's more an issue about good taste picking characters that about franchises.You can refrain to both series and still have a shitty roster.
>>492223607Can you believe Juri has NEVER been in a vs. game?
Capcom faggotry has entirely taken over these threads fucking hell.
>>492224556SNK is involved so it's inevitable.
>>492223946She is in SF x Tekken.But who cares, we have the good Yuri.
>>492224556I can't wait for CotW to splinter off KOF faggotry into its own general so we don't need them anymore
>>492224741My bad guess we should've became a Smash and Tekken general when we've had the chance.
>>492226136that's some backseat mod attitude. you're trying to point out how everyone else reacts or behaves. Truth is, Smash, Tekken, and Street Fighter give SNK fans more to talk about. Same for fans of those games.
>>492226809Just because you're talking doesn't mean you're saying anything of value.
>>492227115keep projecting, backseat mod
>>492226468Perfection.
>>492226809What the fuck is a "backseat mod"? We were doing fine with COTW, go back to your threads.
https://x.com/miauneko/status/1828891102809567557
>>492196954Still can't believe we're getting a new AoF game.
>>492223946probably has to do with the fact that by the time she debuted, the "vs" games began to lose their appeal.
>>492226468 Do you guys think she actually likes Kensou beyond just a friend?
>>492232409I've said this in a previous thread, but being an idol would mean she can't date anyone, even if she wanted to.
>>492203212>SNK disregarding the regions that held them up for yearsyou mean the regions that pirated continuously from them while claiming to be their biggest fans and get mad when people like me make fun of the 9k sales flops
>>492232409it's 50/50 tbqh. regardless as the anon that first replied to you, idols are not allowed to date in japan. they take that shit very seriously. no serious idol would even attempt to have a secret lover. they have to remain "pure" in the eyes of their fans.
>>492205129>>492204489>>492203750Keep the tears rolling, Kyobro. Terry has always been the true mascot of SNK. The real OG. Kyo would not exist without Terry.
>>492233061Yet SNK's games have always shat on your Trash Fighter games. There's a reason why that shit died for a decade after the 90s.
>>492202220>How would they pull a new AoF? With KoF and FF was easy but the only way with AoF4 is going full 3D Fighter or going to another genrethey might just do the 3d fighter tbqh. which would be a first for snk.
>>492202220It better be 3D if they want anyone to give a shit.
>>492233765all their latest entries have been in 3d. obviously the new AoF would follow suit.
>>492233894And obviously you're retarded and in desperate need of special care.
>>492234302wow anon. what set you off?
Terry is a character that always get like a different type of level 3/climax super/HDSM/super desperation/critical art/hidden gear/whatever you wanna call a big ass final super move. They never really nailed one that like is iconic like Power Geyser or Buster Wolf.I still think Stardist Ignition from XV is the best one desu. The COTW one is a cool reference to the movie but I feel like it lacks a good final impact and the SF6 one is just goofy specially on how he launches himself like a missile on the CA. The Polish Hammer Power Geysar on the Ash saga was cool but honestly I always felt the ending power just kinda awkward-looking with him just crouching instead of kneeling on the ground
>>492233445oh no, they shat on the state of whether or not people like you prefer kof's gameplay to its own, how terrible, they were cry into their moneyand before you talk about how i care about someone else's money, i wasn't up here calling me a poorfag for not being a fan of paying full price for a bare minimum stripped down, reduced from kofxiv recycled from kofxiv product
>>492232893>>492233138Idols are only worth a damn as teenagers. They lose their appeal once they hit their 20s.
>>492234420they will cry into their money*
>>492234420ESL
>>492234404Your inability to read and understand the context of what 3D means here. Your stupidity is so extreme that it might be contagious, which why I am so pissed off.
>>492234569beat you to the punch m9speaking of money thoi see kofxv is discounted to 12 bucks lmao that's what it should be worth
>>492234419>I still think Stardist Ignition from XV is the best one desu. The COTW one is a cool reference to the movie but I feel like it lacks a good final impactEhhh. The Stardist one isn't bad but I like the CotW one better mostly because I'm a huge OVAfag and it did it's job well enough.
>>492234696anon take your meds for a second. if you meant 3d arena brawler, you should have said so. it's your own fault for not being clear.
>>492234419Power Stream is honestly really coolXIII fucked up the move by removing the cool jumping frame
>>492234420Yet you are in this general for those games seething over them. What does that say about you? Is Trash Fighter 6 not good enough for you?
>>492234892You dumb animal i'm literally replying to someone who was talking about a 3D FIGHTER >>492202220 . My God kill yourself.
>>492235010Why doesn't Terry use the Power Stream super special in later games?
>>492235117anon your post was not clear enough so the fault lies with you. it's ok. you made a mistake.
>>492235223They replaced it with Trinity Geyser on XIII, which it looks like it but its not really that popular and from there it just kinda changed all over the place.
>>492235046>What does that say about you?that i'm awesome and full of dimesmeanwhile you like your favorite company are dimeless
>>492235412So SNK really did try butchering the move and then scrapped it. Sad. Power Stream was pretty damn powerful too.
>>492235359Do not reply to me anymore subhuman I don't want to catch your stupid.
>>492235442Full of dimes and yet comes here to cry about the games he doesn't like.
>>492235627you really need to calm down. you're this angry over a mistake you made.
>>492235672>yet comes here to cry about the games he doesn't like.nah thats youi come here to be awesome just like the miz
AoF4 should have Robert as one of the villains. Let Ryo and Yuri team up with someone else.
>>492235989You're not breaking up the bros for life.
>>492236546Sometimes bros must fight each other to grow. Sometimes that fight needs to be high stakes. Ryo and Robert must fight.
>>492236696to the death, and the loser gets decapitated and the victor experiences the quickening
>>492235529>>492235010>>492234419All Stars had the right idea when it came to a final supper for terry imo
>>492237028>final supperdead man walking
>>492237028>a mobile game did what a console game could notEven sadder.
>>492236993Now you get me. Ryo vs. Robert will be the highlight of AoF4.
>>492237270them mobile game companies hire talented visual directors/artists
>>492237478Saudi Prince needs to take notes
>>492237574it also helps tho that the gacha dev pace is more dripfeed iterative stuff rather than having some kind of need to do a lot of things to make a deadline and them peeps prefer that kind of less stressful scheduling
>>492233061>he doesn't even know about the special program SNk ran in LatAm to make cabinets more affordablenot all of them pirated you dumb newfag retard
>>492238090Yeah. Perhaps it's a business model that SNK could seriously dip their toes into. May even be more lucrative for them.
>>492238657So you're saying less characters to start with and more DLC? Like start with a handful of characters and then drip feed content as time goes on turning games into more of a service. I suppose in a way for example KoF can start with like 3 or so teams then release a team every few months by the time they get to the size of a typical KoF they could have a couple years worth of content.
>>492239469>So you're saying less charactersjust say that, it's music to the ears of those who say smaller roster = easier to balance, like how kofxv is clearly less balanced now than it was when it first released
>>492239469They'd have more time to fine tune gameplay aspects and even get certain feedback from users on what they want added and such. Probably harder to do with console game development
>>492239601Nice point there, stud. Why don't you make up more things why don't you, fancypants?
>>492239990make what things up, it's totes true that smaller rosters = easier to balance, an anon said soalso it's said that people prefer to pay extra for dripfeed content rather than get a bigger game in one packageman, imagine if final fantasy 7's three discs on ps1 were all sold separately each for 60 dollars, squareenix would be swimming in all the money! noone would dare ask them why they did that way when there's mgs
>>492237028SNK has lost it's creativity the moment they imploded
>>492240570They are trying to return to those days back in the 90s.
>>492237028this looks ok until the shitty ending
>>492240807still waiting for them to do an annual kof and iterations of fatal fury and other games on the side all the matter of less than a decade
>>492240470You are actually pretty dishonest here that it's funny, blondie.
>>492240901Hey dumbfuck. We got Samsho revival, Fatal Fury revival and now getting an Art of Fighting revival. On top of that, there was the latest King of Fighter game and even some weird spinoffs like Heroines as well. SNK is trying. Just let them sort out of Saudi money.SNK already said they were gonna take a break from fighting games after CotW to do more revivals of their IPs like Psycho Soldier.
How can someone have so much free time to spend shitposting this thread every single day...
>>492241356Their SF threads are dying.
>>492240470They're doing that right now for $70, they just made the mistake of releasing it exclusively on PS5
>>492241103>no annual kof>take a break from fighting games>returning to those days back in the 90skwab
>>492241531You clearly weren't born in the 90s.
>>492241614well duh grampsyou musta been alive since the big bang like bob dole
>>492234539Well, Athena is 18. So, I guess her time is almost up.
>>492241973Whatever you say, fool. You know nothing of SNK's golden era.
>>492242037Obviously. She has a few more years before she's replaced with younger idols for the mass to jerk off to. Athena can either become an actress like most former idols do or go be a housewife to some rich businessman.
>>492242116>You know nothing of SNK's golden era.neither does snk kek what a bitch
>>492234419My favorite Terry super aside from those two is Star Dunk Volcano from XIV.
>>492242579SF6 sucks.
>>492242727>Star Dunk Volcano from XIV.I see you're a man of taste.
>>492237028I think that works better as the level two super for buster wolf rather than as its own super, if only because the recent 3d versions of buster wolf look pretty awkward with Terry just posing for a few seconds on the second hit as explosions just hit the opponent while they float in the air until they get launched away.
>>492242730in all the dimes and snk just sucks in air so bad that the first three rows passed out from oxygen deprivationwould be funny if it wasn't so sad
>>492122024You know what? Just so you don't say if came out of the blue, the story mode for SNK vs Capcom 3 and Capcom vs SNK 3 will involve a proper epic with Terry and Dante as the heroes who save the world. With Nero, Rock, Ryo and Leon as the core of the Hero Party.
>>492242950>>492242730
>>492243217Terry and Ryu
>>492234419>>492242727my favorite was always power stream from xi
>>492242915Nah that feels like a disservice for the move imo.
Good, fuck yearly KoFs. It turns it into the Madden/FIFA/COD of FGs and made KoFags into spoiled babies that don't like it when another game gets the spotlight for once. There should be a gap between KoFs to make it special. In fact should have put in at least one more game before putting out XV. It's a good thing that they're working on CotW and it's a good thing they're willing to dip their toes into non-fighters. It'll give them experience in other fields and make their catalogue and expertise more robust so that in case they take another financial hit or if some important devs ever leave they'll have something else to fall back on. Relying on FGs, and after the bankruptcy most of those being KoFs, for so long made SNK weaker in the long run. It's nothing more than a crutch.
>>492243532It's why I was mindboggled that anon wanted to go back to yearly KoFs. It's like he wasn't even around when that was a thing and how that helped SNK.
>>492243217damn i almost thought i was in the imas taba much more soulful product than gay-oh-eff lmao
>>492243532you sound like a butthurt fatal fury fag
Why does this guy who hates SNK games post on the SNK general?
>>492244158Fatal Fury made your franchise. If KOF actually made money, FF wouldn't have been dead for 25 years>>492244214He claims to just hate XV for being cheaply produced which is weird, because all KOFs are cheaply produced
>>492244158Seethe. Fatal Fury gave birth to King of Fighters. Know your place.
Diversity in their game selection and more expertise will definitely help, but you know what will give them that extra push? Cunny.
>>492244517>When Bamco makes infinitely more money than Capcom or SNK because cunny pipeline juices their JP revenueI think Capcom missed the memo tho since Lily looks like a daz3D pedo render you find on the depths of Pixiv
>It really was a seething Fatal Fury fagLMAO, you're getting a new game after 20 years, why so mad?
>>492244741No one's mad. If anything everyone's excited a real fighting game is coming out after 20 years of KOF slop that barely made back their cheap budgets
>>492244374And Street Fighter gave birth to Fatal Fury, know your place, newfag
Do you think they'll ever add rollback to KOFXIII's steam release or would they make a new port?
>>492244984Neither of those
>>492244859SFI is pure kusoge and SFII had no influence on Fatal Fury other than making FF2 worse than it needed to beAt least if anything FF AND KOF had better first installments than SF did
>wahh "we" suddenly hate KOFWho are these fucking tourists?>>492244984Maybe it'll be one of those 30 super secret anniversary things

I was contemplating grabbing it but I barely touch SF6 and Tekken 8 as it is. I'm frequently loading up 2002 or SamShoVPerfect on the MiSTer FPGA instead to play with friends if we do play an SNK game.
>>492258320In that case she better start learning how to make baozhi because Kensou is gonna need dinner once he gets home from work. Her eggs have a timer on them and they ain't getting any fresher.
>>492259117JAV/gravure model route it is then
>>492202379>Bobby...
Kyo this… Terry that… in all honesty Iori would have been a better character to represent SNK in crossover titles. Not only is he a saxophone playing babe, he is also shoto-esque, has rekkas, and a command grab.
>>492259810He did get into a crossover.
>>492259810>would have beenNewbro....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSb4FNSQxZo

>>492260216>>492260239I’m talking of right now, it should have been Iori not terry. I already knew of arcana blood because thief arthur was in heroines.
>>492259810woman hands typed this post
>>492262925I'm astounded people think Iori is even good looking. He looks ugly and gay, and behaves like a mentally ill homosexual. Female Iorifags are also quite the experience.

>>492267872Who said that, newbro? Learn to read between the lines, most of us are aware that KOF changed the input sometimes but, that's irrelevant to the picture
>>492263545>tfw you get paired up with a tranny in 2003/XIII's endings
>>492268034This is a lot of cope about SNK's recent shotofication of Terry
>>492268197...and then there's garbage like preecha
>>492268239>recent
Terry is not a shoto.Shoto is about specials and gameplan not about inputs.
>>49225894917 bucks is quite cheap
Finally got storm collectibles, I found the for half their asking price now I have to lurk for terry and geese I’m so happy… I wish SNK did more figures or at the very least statues
>>492244859Bow down to your fore bearer. Deedeedeedeedeedee deedee dee dee
>>492234419It's hard to make a compelling cinematic super because hitting someone and then playing a cutscene will always be less engaging than actual moves, especially with how much utility and combo depth his other more iconic supers provide.
>>492276217I agree with this. Personally feel like cinematic supers shouldn't exist because after the first time you've seen them they lose all luster. I don't get excited every time I see Zangief nailing someone with a spinning piledriver but with DYNAMIC CAMERA ANGLES and it detracts from the fight. I strongly believe this is why the old 2D sprite-based SNK fighters are still better than the new games, even if I am pretty hype about CotW (even if a big part of me feels like I really shouldn't be.)
Cinematic supers are ok if they last less than 2 seconds.
>>492280636Example? How "cinematic" can you really be in 2 seconds?
>>492280791nta but Kof13 https://youtube.com/watch?v=LdiazH9ILWMOf course there is a reason. It was expensive to make. But they managed to add it anyway and it worked well. For me, ~5 seconds of climax should be enough in modern FGs. Anything beyond that will be anime.

>>492295724All future fighting games are going to have easy inputs aren't they.
>>492308580Easy inputs have existed long before, but Street Fighter 6 has kicked in the door and forced it into the mainstream.
>>492308370Faggot
>>492286472I feel sorry for the marketing department, they have to work with what they got, and they got nothing.
>>492259810>saxophoneHe plays a guitar.
>>492309125But why did it get over now? I remember critics trashing CvS2 EO when they implemented easy controls with one reviewer saying performing a hadoken without doing the motion is lame & empty. What changed in the zeitgeist to erode this attitude and why did it happen now.
>>492312870>But why did it get over now?Because it's Street Fighter. That's it.
>>492311275Seethe bitch
>>492312870>>492313095Also, there's been more than enough complaining about fighting games' infamous barrier of entry over the years, so making games genuinely appealing to newcomers is the new great issue of our age in the world of fighting games.
>>492312870I can't imagine what it's like playing CvS2 on a Gamecube controller with regular inputs. There was also Super Street Fighter IV on the 3DS which let you use the touch screen for special moves, which made charge characters like Guile broken.
>>492295724Interesting, they're using the DP motion for Rising Tackle that some KOF games used and not the charge motion.
>>492242727That one likes a good final impact imo.Same problem with the COTW one
>>492312870Because you can get youtubers playing without being scared by the perceived execution barrier.Now literally all the big japanese youtubers play Street Fighter 6 "competitively" (even if they're just competing with one another) and that's just free marketing
>>492313095I feel like in the SF4 era it would be impossible to push something like Modern and have it actually be allowed for Rank & Tournament play. The backlash would be far too great against it. Something changed in the culture in recent years to make easy inputs acceptable in a way they never were in the past.
>>492322365It wasn't an issue at the time because people were more concerned with ending the FGC dark ages, which SF4 did by making fighting games cool again. It was about getting back into the swing of things, and there was no concern about accessibility at the time because SF4 brought so much new blood into the scene on its own. From there, the needs of the community have progressed, with different issues taking priority. Online functionality was always a concern, but the pandemic and the lockdown massively sped things up. Now we've come back to one of the old bugbears of the genre: accessibility and retention for new players, i.e. getting new players and keeping them around.
>>492276415>>492276217This is all done for stream viewers not for players
would a cvs3 even be good for snk? sure it brings hype, exposure and everything, but looking at the previous games it's just gonna be an off-brand street fighter with the entire playerbase just being capcom drones.
>>492328820Crossovers don't exist anymore, MVCI and BBXTB killed them
>>492328820Eh not really. The previous crossovers didn't do much for them. Most of the rewards would go to whichever company develops crossover since they'd be keeping most of the profits since they put in most of the legwork.
>>492328820Nope, as these SNK "fans" tend to only support those made by Capcom instead. Sorta like how so many of them praise KOF13 as the best, yet they didn't show up for the Global Match edition.
>>492329473>Crossovers don't exist anymoreKoF bros...
>>492328820it would only work if the other side that's crossing over actually exhibits an appealing product to more than just its niche nerd fanbase
>>492332858CotW sweep soon
>>492254150Always makes me kek
>>492332851Are these the same people who only care about Terry, Mai, Geese, and Rock and no one else?
>>492336228Probably. Basically only the characters they were featured in CVS2.
>>492336228Weird considering Geese missed XIII and Rock was only added in the following game, which many of these XIII fans hate.
>>492328820Marvel vs Capcom didn't really do much to bring in the tiny remaining marvel fans outside of games because the fanbases are too segregated, and Tatsunoko vs Capcom while it did bring interest to Tatsunoko's works the audience was still primarily vs players.SNK isn't gonna get THAT MUCH outside of its characters getting more of a spotlight but that's really it. Most fanbases are more contained within their series or companies and don't generally overlap especially within fighting games.
Why would he do this. There's no call for that.
>>492337403/co/ still talks about mvc every now and then tho
>>492338017He's just a silly little guy.
Mukai is gay
>>492322365Unironically it's because of perceived hard to execute games like SF4 and KOF 13 why the stigma around simple controls started to die off. In the wake of those games you had things like Rising thunder come out and it's selling point was being motionless and having no hard combos.
How's the mission mode in the kof UM games on sale? Are they fun? From what I can tell they're basically the game's tutorial before moving on to preset cpu fights where you only get 1 character.
The zeitgeist totally moved.In the XIII years people wanted MORE hard controls. People wanted to ban pad players that binded triple punch/kicks to a single button.I can't find the video but a guy asked to Arc Systems more difficulty, he thought BlazBlue was too simple.
>Highschool girl ending>2 hags in their 40s and a third worlder that dropped out of school

>>492355379where do I find hags like this?
>>492355379Athena is forever 18 (except 94). So Yuri is the only one that stands out.
>>492357159Yeah, Yuri is 20 in KOF. Which is actually the same age as Kyo.
>>492357917isn’t Yuri older than Mai
