>>494805656>Takuma desperately wants his son to hit that
>>494807891Not hard to see why.
>>494807891It isn't hard to understand why
>>494807891Takuma has white fever. Ryo should ignore him and get together with a nice japanese girl like Kasumi.
Joe is gay
>>494810191No, he just gets cockblocked by Billy too much.
I LOVE KOF13
>>494811643Why are Mai, Yuri, and Athena bottomless?
The Kula I hope to see in Kof16...
>>494812973>that face
>>494812973...the Kula I got.
>>494813170Official art btw
>>494813229You got the better Kula.
>>494813170>>494815182What's wrong with it?
>>494813229Now she looks like an actual 14 yo with the exception of the Huge eyes.
>>494815182yeah and so is the shit in kof2k1

>>494817485NEVER EVER FAGGOT

>>494821202It'll taper off once the next character is revealed, but it's kinda hard not to indulge in the newest official look of Mrs. Fatal Fury.
>>494817485After genshin impact collab
>>494825039now furina is someone who looks 14sai unlike kula
>>494809269Reminder that the RyoxKing is mostly a KoF thing (they do have a nice friendship in AoF with Ryo respecting King's strength regardless of gender and King respecting Ryo for that. Depending on the Ending Ryo helped pay for King's brother's surgery)Reminder that Kasumi is loyal and cold as fuck, she was ready to murder Ryo until her mom stopped herReminder that Kasumi gave Ryo her headband setting off the whole let's promise to meet again thing while being all tsun which in animeland is a flag for characters basically being destined for each other
Looking back, i kinda of wonder if SNK could've made more money by exclusively focusing on home consoles after their bankruptcy.Imagine multiple Neogeo games being ported to the GBA, NDS and shit.
>>494818558What's the sauce, senpai? It better not be futa.
>>494826513Anything is better than blowing shitloads of money on amusement parks with Animatronics and making their own failed 3D consoles, so yeah probably.
>>494826513We had to two for GBA and they were pretty good. Especially the second game.
>>494826513they would have lowered their bottom line a good deal more by not spending stupidly on the above mentioned things by other anon, so in a sense, they aren't making more money, but they aren't bleeding it needlessly on dimeless projects when they haven't established their brand at the level needed for an amusement park or whatever to be successfulyou have to be literally disney or nintendo level and not even capcom is that, it was just stupid and arrogant
>>494826745Geitenkun dies of blood loss from seeing cat Shun'ei?
Crystalis remake on the GBA would've been dope.
I want her back.
Why is this trial so hard? I cannot get the first super to come out consistently. It seems like you can't use the HCF to buffer the first QCF, so I'm trying to do it manually using the button hold trick to extend the buffer but 9 times out of 10 it still won't come out and I have no idea why. Am I really too slow? It's his final trial.
>>494833036I got it, I was inputting it too fast, which is the first time I've had this problem across trying a bunch of characters. That was a terrible trial
>>494811243Athena is already pretty much doing a 3some with Kyo and Yuki
>>494833697>Athena is already pretty much doing a 4some with Kyo and Yuki and Dinosaur
>>494833036>>494833412Funniest part of that trial is that skipping the command normals scales the combo less, making it into a TOD.They just taught you a harder combo that does less damage. Welcome to KOF combo trials.
>>494833036Anon, I would just forgo the XV trials for learning combos and just look them up on youtube. The trials are very unoptimal and are sometimes hard with no reward.
>>494848403She's ready to be breeded

We still don't have a confirmed boxer on the roster yet so there still is some glimmer of hope!

So Real Bout makes 30 years next year, the very first year of COTW too!!.Imagine the amazing stuff we are going to receive.
>>494869274You're delusional.
>>494804956God, I wish they come back on KoF 16I think the XVI roster should be>Kyo/Iori/chizuru>Beninaru/Shun/meitenkun>Terry/Andy/Joe>Ryo/Robert/King>Kim/Gang/new character>Ramón/Ángel/tyzok>Athena/Yuri/Mai>Leona/Ralf/Clark>K/kula/whip>Antonov/chang/choi(for joke)>Orochi>Lupng/Blue Mary/Vanesa>Isla/dolores/new character>Krohnen/kukri/new character >Ash/Elizabeth/feng
>>494884725Benimaru wouldn't have reason to team up with Shun again. Now that Otoma has been taken care of, Shun is really just another weird kid in the cast, so Isla would be more likely.>Gang-ilNo thanks. If silly duo is with Antonov, give Kim his sons, since Rock opened possibility for that generation to appear.I'd gladly drop Kula in volcano for Maxima, but if friendly cyborg is too much for people, then Heidern can take her spot. He is obviously getting in anyway, and likes the young crowd.The three agents getting back together after their fall out in KOFXV ending would be really stupid, but then again KOF agents are not known for great intelligence.>Kukri with anyone besides his mom>Krohnen with anyone besides AngelWere you drunk when you typed your post?>FengAs in guest character from Tekken? Or did you mean Shen?
>>494886593>so Isla would be more likely.Beni would depend if Kyo/Iori team up again>KimYeah, the son is a better idea>MaximaWould be great but is the character that the staff and fanbase care the least>Kukri/Krohnen I like Mexico team + Shen back and felt that both of them together would be curious to be together.>FengYeah is Shen, Feng was a Undead Unluck character (Shen too)
>>494890904Kukri and Krohnen are not the kind of personalities to cooperate with each other. Technically, Kukri can team up with anyone that would need services of a weird detective, but Krohnen literally never cared about anyone but Angel, and Angel loves Krohnen, so he would have to be either under some major mind control to be in different team, or sit this one out.
>Ryo Sakazaki rides a bike>Blue Mary picked Terry up on a motorcycle>Kyo Kusanagi has a bike and wears a biker jacket>Chizuru Kagura is a motorcycle racer, places 3rd in official races and does chicken races against biker gangs>Krohnen and Angel are fugitives on the run on their bikesI don't know about the SNK devs much, were there a lot of motorcyclists on the staff? Genuinely asking. Obviously you often give a character a bike for coolness factor, but it seems like this goes a bit further
Zarina redesign in Kof16
>>494896674This movement disgusts me and I don't understand how can someone find it hot.
>>494896285Should we also count Kyo's cousin, Aoi from KOF Kyo? Is that game canon? It was the game where Daimon met his future wife.
>>494890904Kyo and Iori teaming up again would depend on Orochi still being a threat or not.
>>494896285Maxima also likes to take K' out on a ride, but bikes go well with their type of character anyway.I think the recurring presence of motorcycles has to do with the fact it's a symbol of freedom.
>>494897436Go back to the training, Andy.
>>494900705How are you sure it's Andy since Mai isn't the one twerking?
>>494898956Last we saw CYS, they were plotting to kidnap Yuki again, so it really depends if SNK skips straight to repeat of Orochi saga, or honors Rugal's spot as the first.
>>494902225Would that result in them being killed again? I don't know SNK would do it. Since the whole point of this arc was to bring them and other characters back from the dead in the first place.
>>494904763If I had to guess, they are trying to write the same situation so that it goes into another direction. Maybe fail on a smaller scale cause of weak motivation.Out of 8 hakkeshu, Gaidel and Yamazaki don't follow Orochi anymore, while M&V have really grown fond of Iori. Shermie has made a friend in Sylvie, who might be the most forgiving person in the world and really devoted to her friends, and both Shermie and Yashiro don't seem to be entirely focused on their mission now. It really just leaves Chris and Goenitz on fully evil side, and Chris' motivation might be influenced by whatever his buddies decide.
>>494826478>COTW DLC character is Ryo and Kasumi's child using a composite martial art made of Kyokugenryu karate and Todoh Style aikidoYeah, would be cringe.
>>494896674Is it weird that I love girl butts but can't stand twerking?
>>494895725So if Khronen and Angel were to come back as a team, who would be their third member?
>>494914387NamelessKrizalidrebuilt Candy Diamond aiming to teach Kula a lessonan entirely new character called I' (ay-dash) with green hair and fixation on K'Kasumi Todohetc.
>>494914387>>494895725See, trying to argue lore reason because X or Y team are not possible went out of the window on XV when they decided to give Kula brain damage to team up with McLovin and Angel despite the lore saying she should be trying to murder their asses instead, just so they could have 02 NESTS team again. So, if SNK decided to team up McLovin with fucking Kensou and Choi, they will do it and no amount of arguments in a basket weaving forum will make them change their mind.
>>494914387I wouldn't mind Nameless joining again.
>>494915437Kula had brain damage long before that, and it wasn't a happy team. There was honestly no one else that could have teamed up with McLovin and Angel at the time, all the NESTS either had a team and were smarter than Kula (not a high bar, but still...), or were decided to come out as dlc.
>>494916489They still could've come with a slightly more plausible reason for Kula to join than "they promised me ice cream"
>>494914387Heidern (tard wrangling mode)
>>494916776I thought her reasoning was to punish K' and Maxima for being responsible adults and not taking time out of trying to save world to take her to amusement park? Ice cream was just bonus.Come to think of it, why didn't she ask her moms? Not like they ever do anything since NESTS went under.
>>494917393She ran away throwing a tantrum because they didn't take her to the amusement park, McLovin and Angel happen to meet her while she was running away, "kidnapped" her to get back at K' and kept her fed with Ice Cream to keep her quiet
>>494918934Such a nice couple, keeping a child off street and away from suspicious individuals that might try something terrible, like feed her vegetables.
>>494911684No. Twerking depending on how it's done is trashy. Also that Miku doesn't have the most appealing ass.

>>494338173>I have a more relevant question. Do you think SNK will ever have a cool, cultural authentic black american male character in any of their games ever again or is it going to be corny foreigners like Marco & Dolores from here on out?I doubt it, SNK already has picrel characters as K' and Duck King.
>>494918934I wonder what SNK is going to do with Khronen now; he doesn't really have a reason to participate beyond kicking K's ass, and the ending implies he's mellowed out too much for that. Also, he would become an easy target for Heidern's people and NESTS remnants.

KOF beginner here, learning Rugal's combos in KOFXV. The Dreamcancel wiki says 214A leads to an autotimed safejump. What is the framekill, it's not just a forward jump so not sure how it's autotimed

>>494969836Good for you, you got Preecha doing it better in CotW as the boxer representative.
pretty soon it'll be a guy just kicking and punching and that's your boxer rep just becausejust like how brown people over in south america count as black peopleonly in an snk thread
>>494971705Kickboxing is the only boxing that matters anyway.
>>494976561yeah and sn9k sales is all about things that matter
>>494931601He might join just for shit and giggles, as rival to K' and Kyo (who he mistakes for Kusanagi).Having no real reason doesn't stop characters like Terry to participate, they just come up with something silly.A clash with Nameless would probably be too kino for SNK.
>>494979235Depends on how popular he is. That's usually why so many characters come back even if they don't need to.
And here's the thing. SNK can't afford not to claim the urban demographic. And what does the urban demographic want? Boxers! And I mean real actual boxers, that is real black bulls that don't take shit, none of these corny ass little girls like VANESSAAAAAA or fucking cosplay injuns like Rick Strowdivier. And don't give me these outlaws like Marco or Dolores either, black-coded fighters should always be booked as boxers.
>>494960669Who is shun interested in? Just seems like he's annoyed with Isla more than anything.
>>494943858Terry fucked Iori?

Just started playing KoF and I can't get over team building autism. Like if I'm going to use Rugal I need to be able to come up with a reason my other two characters would be teamed with him or just any kind of conceptual throughline
>>495045746Apex KOF team theorycrafting is "is this team conceivably (if not already) canon?" Keep up the struggle.
Between using KoD and Maxima but I can't decide if I think KoD is too much of a meme character and if I actually like Maxima's cyborg redesign or not
>>495043462Maybe add World Heroes characters to All Star Brawl.
>>495049419For a moment i thought you were talking about the Nickelodeon game.
>>495045746Just use a point that can build meter, a mid that can build but also use a bit of it then an anchor for maxmode combo autism.Team building is much simpler than something like Marvel.
>>495053507Gameplay reasons aren't why I'm having trouble. My autismo brain just wants to have a narrative theme in my head for why the characters are teamed up

https://x.com/geoffkeighley/status/1836410639129932086Is SNK not major bros...?
>>495061617Sure that works. I'd probably put Rock instead of Kyo since he's a much better all rounder if you're a tier whore but if you want to run with an all KOF protag team then go for it.
>>495073808Geoff doesnt seem to think so
Close attacks have been the weirdest thing to get used to coming into KoF. I have a hard time just trusting when they're going to come out vs. far ones.

>>495089503Honestly, aside from Jeanne, I think everyone else is on spot, so it's not a big deal.
>>495054596Guess you'll have to wait till December for Mature and Vice to come out. Although you can use any of the Orochi gang, Rugal has Orochi power in his left eye from the time Goenitz beat him. Or Geese, cause evil businessmen (Rugal is arms dealer).

>>495191034And so do XIV and XV
>>495191424None of those came out on current year for current consoles only.
>>495192000Sure but they are still being priced as if they were with half the roster of SZ and pretty pitiful SP modes, XV especially. To not mention the utter bullshit of holding back content from the base game to be sold as the first season of DLC. Something that they are doing again in COTW.
>>495192486COTW is literally giving out the first season for free, that's more than scamco will ever do when selling you more reskins
>>495135041I thought that was obvious?
>Doom posting fucking Sparking Zero and COTW at the same timeDoes he enjoy ANYTHING?
>>495193308Why make it a season instead of putting it on the base game from the start?
>>495195280Because it's not done yet and they don't want to delay the game even further? You're still getting them for free?

>>495208087Does Rock count?
>>495211194No one has suggested Rock has higher potential than Terry. At best, Rock is considered vaguely on par with Terry; it's one of the main reasons B. Jenet specifically recruited Rock for Team Garou in KOFXV - so he could be the team's ringer.
>>495208087...Why should they?

>>495130062The only thing I know about this OVA is that Nakoruru was voiced by Reiko Chiba, the Pteraranger from Zyuranger. She also voiced herself in the Fatal Fury movie, Cham Cham in Samurai Shodown 2 and 4, Moe Habana in the KOF EX series, and appeared in some Neo Geo commercal, including Nakoruru for the Samurai Shodown 2 one.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIweZmX57TQ

Do you guys have any other SNK franchise that you wish maybe get in KoF? Specific teams or characters? Bonus points for finding a way to incorporate them in the lore without just dimension hopping
The Hanzo from Samsho and the Hanzo from World Heroes are actually the same character at different ages.
>>495337164Which Hanzo from SamSho?
>>495337340The original, not Shinzo.
>>495248325Rock and the cooler Rock
>>495304072Hard to say. He's pretty black-looking in his concept art and his old designs are blatantly based around him being a black guy but he's much lighter in-game.
>>495340617Whoops wrong pic, but yeah.
>>495332189bring him, no story, just make him fight the Ikari dudes
>>495341063I just remembered, don't Athena and Kensou make cameos in this game?
>>495343294there's two characters with similar names but that's it
>>495332189I wonder if we'll ever see a World Heroes Team. Hanzo would be obvious but who else?
>>495291326what it means is we haven't not seen them in a long time as we just saw them in kofxvjust because they weren't in motw doesn't mean anything because they're not using motw sprites anywaysame reason jenet isn't really a big deal

>>495332189Burning Fight. Yes, yes, Duke Edwards was in KOF 2000 but he was a Striker only.I'm talking a team consisting of Duke, Ryu Saeba, and Billy King (though the latter two would have to be simply called Saeba and "Bill"; the former would be mistaken for Street Fighter's Ryu while the latter has the forename of Garou Densetsu/Fatal Fury's Billy King and his surname would confuse him for Ryuko no Ken/Art of Fighting's King).
Bros
>>495353424Athena is spelled Atena, Athina is spelled Asina since there's no ti in Japanese. Athina is how Athena is pronounced in modern Greek and English, Psycho Soldier and KOF use the classical pronunciation.
>>495398756Ryu Saeba's name was taken from protagonist of City Hunter, Ryo Saeba, so it's not that he would just be confused for SF Ryu.
>>495399186what even is your point of saying that other than being wrong because words written in japanese don't always reflect their english counterpart's pronunciationand on top of that si is not even hepburn convention as it is moreso kunrei formsi is not even how it sounds when they say it as the character シ sounds like the english pronoun "she"so it'd actually sound like "ah-shee-na" when they say it over thereyou are just trying to win the guinness book world record for having the most wrong moments in history
>>495398756>Burning Fight. Yes, yes, Duke Edwards was in KOF 2000 but he was a Striker only.You forgot one. Duke also appears in NGBC as a super move of Yuki.btw Yuki should have been the protagonist of Kof14/15, he is much better and cool than Shungei. Fuck you, Oda.
>>495312108Please, be not a dark soul clone.
>>495399186Show a picture where Athena is spelled like that in Japanese you fucking inbred EOP retard, it's always been like this SINCE THE FIRST FUCKING GAME YOU IMBECILE>>495400221The dude is a fucking idiot
>>495403413>The dude is a fucking idiothe is, but mainly for saying that there's no ti and yet there's somehow a si in the same system he said there's no ti inbecause in kunrei form, ti and si exist in place of chi and shihe claims that crystalis is where they have some different versions of the characters with different spellings in english and are so written in different characters in japthing is, kensuu is actually how it's written for sie kensou (shii-kensuu)come to find out after some research that the character "asina" is actually written as アシーネ in the jp version of the game which is not even as(h)ina, it's a-shi-neso he just pulled his information from an english wiki
>>495400221I'll try to explain one more time. In English and modern Greek, Athena is pronounced /əˈθiːnə/. It has an aspirated t sound followed by the /i/ vowel. There is no ti/thi/θi in Japanese, so the sibilant shi (spelled si using Nihon shiki romanization) was used instead. That's why her name is spelled Asina (Ashina) in Crystalis. Though her name in Japanese is actually Ashiine, but Athene and Athena are interchangeable.In ancient Greek, Athena was pronounced /a.tʰe̝ˈna/, which is the pronunciation that's used in Japanese (アテーナー), except that the Japanese writing system doesn't account for aspiration, which is why her name is pronounced with an unaspirated テ te. Athena Asamiya's name uses the same spelling, but without the long vowels.
>>495406250>Asina (Ashina)That's a "NE" you fucking retarded EOP
>>495406250>Asina (Ashina) in Crystalislmaoretard
>>495406250You idiot.This character is just a reference but not the same character, that's why her name's spelling is different, it's also an absolute joke that you can give that type of verbose explanation to seem smart yet you can't even read a simple "ネ", something you learn in Japanese 101
>>495408505Did I ever claim she's the same character as Asamiya? I explained how Asina is one way to spell the name of the Greek goddess when accounting for deficiencies in the Japanese writing system and its romanization. And I already said that Athean and Athene are interchangeable, it's the same goddess either way.
>>495406250>>495409727>nathere's no "na" you monolingual newfag
>>495409952>there's no na in Asina
>>495409727>Athean1. That at the end is not a standalone "N"2. You're also ignoring the elongated vowel3. Show a Japanese article where Athena has that alternate spelling (you can't, all you'll find is the Japanese store with that name)https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%82%A2%E3%82%B7%E3%83%BC%E3%83%8D
>>495410017there's no "na" here >>495406250 you fucking inbred EOP retard
>>495410303Athean was a typo, I obviously meant Athena. And there's no point in arguing with someone who doesn't understand that phonetics are separate from written language. Especially when you're trying to argue that Kensuu's girlfriend was just accidentally given the name Asina/Asiine and it has no relation to Athena.

>>495417018>the only difference is stressAnd that difference is very important because Japanese is a phonetic language
>>495417664But there is no stress in Japanese.
>>495418062Not true. If you asked someone for a single word without context, stress or pitch accent can dictate meaning. For instance: hashi and hashí are not the same. Nor is ame and amé the same.
>>495419639>For instance: hashi and hashí are not the same. Nor is ame and amé the same.Yet they are spelled the same way using kana.
>>495421089So it's worse when words aren't even spelled the same way, isn't it?
>>495421545You said it yourself, Japanese is a phonetic language, so foreign words that sound the same would be spelled the same in katakana even if the stress was different.

>>495440695What the fuck
>>495440695honestly pretty baffled by this. Is he voicing someone?
>>495440695Post screencap pls. X is blocked in my shit country.

>>495441449
>>495440695what the actual fuck
>>495440695If he's playable is this the biggest guest character ever?
Don't worry guys. He's probably just being invited to play in a tourney or something for the game. I mean Ronaldo is a big star and is connected to the Saudi Pro league, so using him as advertisement seems like a profitable thing to do. Hopefully, because celebrity guest characters are fucking homosexual.
>>495441630>>495441908Thanks based anons
>>495443027It says joining the game >>495441908I don't think he's gonna be invited to a tourney and this announcement is pretty close to TGS were they will announce him. I want to be wrong but I can totally see the Saudi prince saying he needs to be in the game.
This is SNK's keikaku to see if their fans care enough about sports to bring back the Sports Team in KOF XVITrust the plan
>>495443446But Brian is replaced by a Futbol player
>>495440695Pessi would never
What are going to be Ronaldo's moves?
I don't think he's playable lmao. He'll probably mash some buttons at the TGS tourney
>>495440695GigabasedOnly faggots will get mad at this.
>>495444047If Neymar can win a Tekken tournament, maybe CR knows basic fightan shit.
>>495444248Why not add someone that makes sense? Like Ryu is right there? Or Hell even a pro wrestler if they want to use real stars
>>495444248Only fags like guest characters though, real-world/Celebrity ones being even more subhuman.
>>495440695TSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
SNK made Smart Controls, polished them for months now, and asked for advice from Max DOOD just for this. They want Ronaldo and others to showcase COTW by mashing buttons into cool shit.
>>495444473Because he plays in Saudi Arabia and he's mega famous they don't really care if he fits or not.
>>495443591It will be a new iteration with sports that are more popular with the current SNK audience. Football (Soccer), Baseball, and probably still a boxer, you can say they are the children or protégé of the previous Sports Team members for that sweet sweet continuity
>>495440695Put him in the KOFXVI sports team too, Mohammed bin Salman sama

>Ronaldo is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a forward for and captains both Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr and the Portugal national team.We have to make room for some sorcerer player, the gayest sport of all time, for the Saudis while SNK cultural authentic black chars like Lucky Glauber are just left to sit and rot for decades on end. For fuck sake, why is Michael Max the only FF1 character never to get a re-appearance, or why can't that black guy with the gold fade who was planned for motw 2 be actualized in cotw? Can we please get an actual cool nigga in SNK games instead of voodoo African witches, faggot ass caperoria chars, or some orientalism larp.Like SNK you already have the third world shit hole demographic with cornball chars like Marco so how the hell is adding some sorcerer fag going to help your sales out in NA? We don't give af about faggot ass sport over here. Here is an idea, how about you start adding chars from your backlog that appeal to Black Americans for once. Shit, we are the ones that hold you down the hardest in NA and all the chars that could really appeal to us just get dropped after a single game.
>>495452792
>>495440695This is so fucking amazing I could cry. I hope we get a lot of actual atlethes in the game. Finally the Saudis do something right.

>>495452649They can market it without putting him in the game.
I just hate having to deal with anachronistic bullshit like this. All the stupid costume bloat in SFV, all the guests in MK. It's just obnoxious to play against and makes me not want to buy your game. Ultimately doesn't matter because the amount of sales they'll get because of this far outweigh people like me. Just sucks to see shit you loved so cheapened.
CotW makes me want the timeline for the AoF and FF parts of KoF to advance already, Ryo as Mr Karate 2, Terry with his older look in a team with Rock, make some of these pairs get together already, they've been stagnant for too long

This is the stupidest, most soulless collaboration of all time. You can tell it's all driven by that Prince.If they want publicity they should've gotten done a video game collaboration.
>>495467108>get the most popular athlete in the world to play some matches of your game>most soulless collaboration of all timewhat?
>>495467360You know that I'm not talking the possibility of him playing the game you disingenuous snarky parasite.
>>495467108I dunno, it's funny in a "so bad it's good" kind of way.

>>495444473Ronaldo would beat the shit out of that homeless bum Ryu though
>>495467108>This is the stupidest, most soulless collaboration of all time.That was 2B in Granblue
>>495466551Since when is Chizuru an idol? Might as well bring back Mignon Beart or make up a new character.
>>495467108it's not really the problem i haveit's that if there's this big of a sports celebrity doing something with it, now the game really needs to meet and go above and beyond the standard as a game package, because if it's not really much then there'll be quite the visible panning by the would-be new audience
>>495467958he left snk like 2 or 3 years ago anon
>>495468590What about Negan in Tekken 7?
>>495468590>Soulcalibur 5 director sticks 2B in the game>leaves Bamco, goes to Cygames>sticks 2B in Granblue VersusI don't care for the character but I respect his commitment honestly
>>495468673She dances a lot and a shrine maiden is kind of a very ancient idol, a little bit look I had to pick a 3rd member and she is the close enough to the theme
>>495468826Negan is at least a suprise. 2B is a collab whore
>>495468996I guess it won't be long until she shows up in KOF.
>>495468590Hell no. At least that's a video game character, many people who like Nier are weebs too so the Granblue crossover is perfect.
>>495470589Granblue also isn't a stranger to crossovers either. The mobile game had collabs with Street Fighter, Sakura Wars, One Piece, Detective Conan, Cardcaptor Sakura, Code Geass, and even SamSho.
>>495473789HA!Saved.

>>495476373The best one
>ronaldo joining cotwoh god>speed 9/10 would stream the game making more normies aware of cotwgod strike me down now
what really makes me lol is that the one trailer that's simply a vague hint for what's to come has more production value in it than snk has had in its entire life since kofxiv
>>495441449I'm sorry about that. Not the X being blocked but being in Brazil.
>>495477340Isn't that exactly what SNK wants?
>>495477419we should take bets on how long it'll be before some brazilian gang beheads him before he gets to touch cotw
>>495477568Why would that happen?
I hope this make SNK very very popular because I want more fanfiction of their games to read...
>>495477340>>495477476They weren't joking about that top 10 publisher spot
>>495477951We all thought SNK was gonna do "honest" shit and näively hope for the best, but this shows that they clearly know what they are doing even if reaching top10 is nearly impossible.
>>495450102but KOF is shit anon, literally the best case scenario
>>495478386>We all thoughtno i didn'ti'm still going to completely shit on a game if it fails to meet the standards i've set for it

>>495478601What exactly did you think they were going to do?
>>495478646That sounds like a fun read actually lol.
>>495478646I trust the fujos to not write fics about Ronaldo hopefully...

>Yeah, i just did that. So?
>>495480679in a short way of putting ita game package that says "we're a big deal" and not just because you got a celeb to play with youfor an extreme examplesay i got this same celebrity to join in on the atari e.t. gameyou're just polishing a turd and you might be decking it up with some tasty frosting, but the core part of it still is just a piece of shitthis is nothing but a market gimmickin a little bit of detailthe game can't just be a regular arcade fighting game, esp not with that roster size, it has to show that the devs really threw it just cool shit to spice the overall game up with extras that make it become more than just an average snk fighting game, like you've already (supposedly) brought back the arm wrestling bonus stage, if you resign and say "nothing, you don't know game development, it's not linear, blah blah blah", you've already defeated yourself and my potential interest, and the only people to keep their interest in it are snkfags and people just hoping to get away from sf6, right before they walk back to sf6 anywaylike for example, a simple thingsometimes at a panda express getting extra entrees or eggroll for free occasionallygo to a retail store and the wagecuck happens to have product knowledge beyond his shit pay that makes you wonder why he's working in a shit retail store instead of in a real placeyou can't go global top 10 if your ongoing prerogative is to eternally damn yourself to making a bare minimum game thonot saying outright copy capcom, but even then, capcom did things i said snk should have done right after i said snk should have done them first, and a good portion of the ideas came from stuff that's in OTHER fighting games before sf6take risks with ideas and maybe fail doing so, just at least throw them ideas in there to seebut i'm sure someone will talk about "playing it safe" like they don't have some money mark's financial safety net people claim snk has
>>495483065>if you resign and say "nothingshit, forgot to put in one line that was supposed to precede it, which was "but what else can they throw in"anyway, the problem with you asking me such a question is that it's not some simple answer of "hey add crossplay/rollback/blah blah", that's really just a flex seal kind of answerthere isn't going to be kind of simple one-note answer from me
>>495483531>there isn't going to be kind of simplethat was messyw/e
>>495440695No way, is this really his account?
>>495484237if it isn't him then he sure has a lot of followers for a fake account
>>495440992He is on the Saudi payroll, so it's not outside the realm of possibility.
>>495484575This is fucking surreal.
>>495485402i don't even know the guy because i don't follow foodbowlbut going back to my earlier posts, like hey, what if it's like a fatal fury soccer sidegame in cotw as a bonusto much of you, it's a "waste of dev time that they could have totally used on an extra character or two" like that can't be done in parallel by the people actually making the character data, like it's just all the programmers doing one thing at a time in serialto someone like me, it's "something extra"
>>495486151Well people like you are fucking morons. Whatever hypothetical group of people you imagine working on Ronaldo could be put on an actual Fatal Fury character, hence wasted slot
>>495487168nah that's you
>>495487168whatever it takes to make an SNK game be played over two weeks, KOF players are fucking fightcade monkeys that don't spend money on games and they finally finished their blender course to make their FGs look good, and not like SFEX3 on PS2, they are not taking any chances
>>495488319well in all fairnessi seen a lotta peeps learn all the tools to blender and they models still fugly af and that's just their "style"

The Ronaldo tweet is at 20 million views
>>495492863He’s like the most famous athlete I think he also played on the most popular soccer team too.
>>495494140He's one of the single biggest soccer stars in the world. Lots of people follow Ronaldo on principle.
Hoping cancel culture works for once and Twitter gets SNK to walk this shit back
Dear SNK, fuck you for making this boss. This fucker is beyond bullshit.
>>495440695I AM SO HYPED.
Will Iori ever have a team of people that actually wants to team up with him and not just join for an ulterior purpose, reluctantly, or a "common goal" kind of deal?
>>495498735Unlike K', nobody actually likes Iori in spite his dickheadedness.
>>495498735I always felt that they brought back Vice and Mature in XIII, so they could be his teammates and nothing else.
>>495498735Nope. It's either sneks or Sacred Treasures. Leona teaming up with Iori is also never happening.
>>495498869To be fair, unlike K', Iori does have tendency to try murdering his team mates (and sometimes succeeds).
>>495499825Kula probably would under certain, easily arranged, conditions.
Why did Billy and Eiji team up with Iori that one time?>RivalsI meant in universe.
>>495492863I'm starting to think having him as a playable character would be a good idea...
>>495504085Geese told Billy to spy on Iori, Eiji is a hired gun to fill a slot.
>>495504505Why would Geese be interested in Iori?
>>495498273Kouryuu is one of the easiest SNK bosses, cute newfag
>>495504585Geese at the time was interested in power of Orochi
>>495498735Genuinely, unless it's the Three Sacred Treasures or Mature and Vice tormenting him, Iori would go solo if possible. The one time he wasn't either of those three is when he was with the Agents (Vanessa, Seth, Ramon) in 2001, and that time, they were just trailing behind him to lead them to Kyo.
You morons keep talking about the views on his tweet like he doesn't have over 100 million followers. 20 million is probably the minimum
Not even really a soccer kind of guy, but this is hysterical. Gotta be honest, never thought I'd see something like this.The butthurt that it's causing is pretty funny too.
>>495440695>>495463546RONALDO COTW 3D MODEL LEAKED
Top left is ronaldo
PELE WHEN
>>495473789>>495476373>>495508175Imagine asking Oda to nerf fucking Ronaldo in COTW in 2025...Really crazy timeline, bros.
>>495498735It's possible, they would just have to give Iori a character arc, characters going through arcs tend to be very susceptible to teammates. It would probably need to be new characters that don't have much baggage with IoriTheir first team up would be the usual for Iori "teaming up for convenience or common goal", but then they would still be together for a 2nd team up, and then by the 3rd they would have grown a soft spot for each other, thus becoming the default Iori team from now on (like how Kyo's default team is Benimaru and Goro)My idea was a gothic lolita small French girl and a Totoro-like robot created by NESTS to counter Iori in case he became a threat to their Kyo clones but was never activated until now
>>495508796>gothic lolita small French girlSylvie>Totoro-like robotterrible idea
>>495509337Sylvie is not french nor is she gothic (plus the girl would be kinda gloomy unlike Sylvie), the Totoro-like robot would just be visually similar
>>495509749Sylvie is officially French (that SNK doesn't bother to show character's nationality in their design is another pair of gloves), and her XV outfit is most definitely gothic lolita with a bit of Sylvie twist.https://www.snk-corp.co.jp/us/games/kof-xv/characters/characters_sylvie.phpIf people don't like Maxima, why do you think they will like your childhood OC? Totoro is fun to watch on rainy afternoon, but that design would be terrible in a fighting game.
>>495450102>>instead of spending some of the oil money to support Kof15 so as not to look incomplete and deliver a nice and respectful 30th anniversary, they prefer to give everything to Ronaldo, already a multimillionaire, to try to sell Oda's wet dream game which in the end should not even exceed 300K units sold>Bravo, Oda! SNK AAA company in 2033!It's hilarious how fucking salty you are.
>>495510248I see. Well, I guess it could still be an emo girl from another countryI've never watched Totoro or any Ghibli movie, I said "Totoro-like" because I was picturing a more friendly looking robot rather than human robot like Candy or a Nu-Maxima but with a robot-head, I thought it would be a good contrast
>>495477951There's no amount of celebrity marketing that will put SNK in the top 10 if they keep releasing mediocre games with mediocre support. The company needs to be restructured with actually competent devs.
>>495508796I think I know what you're looking for.
>>495510912This. Not even Ronaldo will change the fact that COTW looks like shit and is absolutely inferior to other fighting games of this generation.
>>495510912>>495514778That's what I've been saying for a long time. Big budget + incompetent direction = mediocre gameConcord burned 400 million and died in less than 2 weeks. Okay, Oda is not woke, but seeing how he "finished" Kof15, I would never trust him to take on such responsibility of becoming AAA in 10 years. I'm not salty, just realistic. The Netmarble team did a much better job with Kofas than SNK did with Kof15. I would trust them.
>>495514778>and is absolutely inferior to other fighting games of this generation.The game is not even out yet.
>>495504298I doubt it will be his likeness, but rather a new character from Portugal origin with him as the VA.

I HATE HIS STUPID FUCKING COMBO WHERE HE CAN JUST EAT A WHOLE FUCKING 4/5ths of my life bar in three fucking hits. FUCK HIM.

THE WINNER IS... RONALDO "Nice fight, Terry. Your Power Geyser is strong but heaven is on my side."
>>495499825>Leona teaming up with Iori is also never happening.but what about that team of yamazaki/iori/leona LOL
>>495522438>Big budget + incompetent direction = mediocre gameyeah just look at aewthe son of a billionaire spends all that money his dad gives away to him to burn, way more than wwe spends, and he can't even draw half the audience to it because his product is poor>>495510383>2033 copies sold>>495508507would rather ask him to nerf jenet's manface

>>495530000 (checked)No Alfred, keep doomposting
>>495141217Seeing Kenny there is weird since as far as I know, he's a Capcom fanboy. Either he jumped ship or someone there bribed him or something.

>>495531701>picOH NO NO NO NO It's over...
I don't know what's the "best" course of action, to make Ronaldo a character, a skin, or something like an announcer.

>>495533392 ur dad
>>495524313They're not new, they're KoF XV models revamped. You look at this game and you can clearly see the KoFXV in it. And they might look good maybe by 2016 standards, this is not a 2025 game.
>>495531701The guy holding the poster definitely looks like he needs his HD checked.

>>495545486no
COTW will fail because it won't have a shitty free-roaming chat lobby like what majority of FGs since SF6 are doing. It will be docked on reviews as being outdated.
>>495547850Tekken only has it for a singleplayer mode no one plays. What's the problem?
>>495547850kill yourself zoomer
What other athletes should they put in the game? I'm so excited about Ronaldo being playable, I really hope every season pass has 1 real life legend. Hope they put Mike Tyson in, or Jake Paul if he beats him. Lebron?
>>495549851mike tyson has to medically nerf himself in order for jake paul to even have a chance
>>495549851Kill yourself
Why are KOF players so obsessed with people "giving KOF a chance" specially in NA social media? can't they just assume that their game is niche and not that big of a deal instead of making the "you have to learn 3 characters in marvel too" comparison? It's embarassing
>>495552309>Why are KOF players so obsessed with people "giving KOF a chance" specially in NA social media?Because the series went on ice for a couple of years after XIII bombed hard, it's the proto-MVCI for SNK if you really think about it. That's why there were some people that bought XIV despite its visuals because they didn't want KOF to be forever shelved again.>can't they just assume that their game is niche and not that big of a deal instead of making the "you have to learn 3 characters in marvel too" comparison? It's embarassingOne of KOF's more common complaints is the 3 characters necessity, I think people deep down acknowledge that Marvel and FighterZ have a very low skill floor required to get started whereas with KOF you need a bit more understanding to really get started since there isn't any magic series type combos in KOF, it's all just a chain system with a hierarchy which might seem simple but its not "mash your face on the pad" simple like magic series styled combos.
>>495552309maybe because they want more than just the same 5 people to play against all the time in a game that sold only 9k copies
>>495549851they should just go all out. slap in michael jordan, tom brady, tiger woods, federer, lebron, phelps, bruce lee, jackie chan, and michael jackson.
>>495554039and owen wilsonas marmaduke
>>495552309Imagine we get a Ranma team as a guest in the next KOF. Ranma, Akane, and I guess the third would be either Ryoga or Shampoo.

>>495554441I'd honestly would love to see Kodachi, her usage of all the rhythimic gymnastic accessories like the ribbon, hoop, ball and clubs has incredible potential to give her an unique playstyle. It's baffling that since then we never got a fighting character that tried to capitalize on that concept.

>Reeeeeeeee Why don't people play our games? It's not fair! Just because the matchmaking is broken and there's no single player content? That's no excuse!!!1!
>>495553220Why can't they just assume that it didn't happen? magic series having lower skill floor is kinda bullshit and a very obvious cope, you can get your ass destroyed on those games and people still play them, KOF doen't have that kind of success because context, competition or the games aren't that good, is that simple, people should enjoy it as it is instead of having a pathetic victim complex about it

I'm starting to think you guys don't actually like SNK.
>>495555832So name it, what PS3 game looks like COTW?
>>495561480MVC3
>>495561312I sure don't :)
>>495561760How are they alike?
>>495561312modern snk has no magicor magic johnson either

>>495565448Including being tossed out the window?
>>495566006Maybe?
>>495557041Looking at the cash EA Sports makes for less, that's no excuse indeed.We need King of Fighters 2025 with the same roster and the Ultimate Team gacha mode for new and altenative versions of a character. And the story mode should be in a form of a built-in pachinko game.
>>495563784We don't need emergency shitposting when Tekken is superior in everything.

>>495570635>>495572394wtf it said it didn't post
Take notes, Oda.
>>495557191>the games aren't that goodNah, KOFXV is super fun, it's just a total scam. It doesn't matter how good the gameplay itself is, nobody wants to pay 60 dollars for something with just as much if not less content than other fighters that go for 40.
>>495573338I rather have them pander to the Saudis than to China.
>next KoF>Sports Team is Ronaldo, Shohei Ohtani and LeBron James
>>495573338hey, at least kofxv has a 9 in the sales figure at all
>>495574586Why include LeBooty? He's never won a real ring, how could he ever win a KOF tournament?
>>495574064>It's super fun>also, total scam
>>495574064that's why you only buy it when it's 15 or lessit's not worth giving it anymore than that

>>495579397Sorry, I meant 40-50. I'm mostly just referring to Strive which is 40, MK1 which is 50, and Granblue Versus which is 50 with a free version. All of these are much better deals than KOFXV, even if a lot of people think they're not as fun.

>>495580520The only expectation i had for KoF XV was a good online, which i wasn't given at the time.Also, reply to me directly, FAGGOT!
>>495583724K'ek so mad
COTW and SF6
>>495583724so theoretically, if the game was a steaming pile of turd gameplay wise, had like 4 characters (because smaller roster = easier to balance, i don't know game development, it's nonlinear, etc), the rest of the game had to be paid 200 dollars extra for, and you only had training stage, but it had good online, it'd have met your expectationsjames cameron was right, the bar has gone too low
>>495584907Why does it always have to be on the extremes with you people?
>>495575715More fun than any shaft fighter put out in the last 20 years that's for sure

I used to think KIM was literally a made up BS character being made too OP.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKEbws4QhEkActually taekwondo fighters do KIM shit IRL.lmao.
>>495591307Why are you always so retarded?
>>495591957It's a fun sparking way to start a conversation.
>>495561312Liking SNK is hating SNK
>>495595576Why?
>>495597008Classic love and hate.
>>495564880"General consumers" are as real as "modern audiences", they're both fake as shit.
>>495600006cool bosnian kid lyrics
Just learned that kensou fights using breakdance, that's cool.
>>495601042learned from the best (raygun)
>>495600208Doesn't mean I'm wrong. Whoever made that little comic needs to eat shit and fuck off.
>>495601571and more bosnian kid lyricsgonna cuss in the mic tonight
>>495597008because SNK has made absolute dogshit desitions and you can't cheer a videogame company like its a fucking soccer team, if they fuck up I hate them is that simple

>coomerthis place has been invaded by retardera and discord
>>495591307>Local channer finds out an ancient martial art actually exists and is still practiced today.
>>495604267>ancient
Teams you want to see have a real shake up in their members for the next KOF?>Team K'>Team Ikari WarriorsThey already work together anyway so why not swap out some members? Maxima with the Ikari Warriors, maybe Leona or Heidern join K', idk, just change them up, they consistently had 2 of their 3 members be the same every entry they've been
>>495606493already stated what i'd do in an earlier thread
>>495606493Besides the ones you mentioned, Team Fatal Fury.
>>495604687>The first organised development of Taekwondo martial arts training is thought to be around the first Century on the peninsula of Korea over 2000 years ago when the Three Kingdoms (Silla, Goguryeo and Baekje) ruled.
>>495608035taekwondo was made in WW2 from some ancient techniques.lolmost of eastern martials arts are 80 years old.
>>495606493The only way I can see them shaking up the Ikari Warriors is if they don't have either Ralf or Clark apart of it. I don't know if they'll do it. It would be like a Fatal Fury Team without Terry.
>>495608138I'll concede to that.
>>495508796Iori did have a gothic lolita on his team once.
>>495611345>ywn see this character in a new game
>>495612045It's a waste of design, but not a waste a of character.Story was the worst part of KOFEX series, even if the second game plays surprisingly well.
>>495603131>desitionsShut the FUCK UP, Pedro
>>495611345Since it seems like we are heading up to a multiverse event, it's possible she comes back next games
>>495612729>potentially owned by another company and not snk
>>495606493Sylvie in Team K' would be fun, they just adopt another remnant of NESTS and she gets to have some more friends, K'-Kula-Sylvie also would be a fun elemental trio, but I'm fine if it was Maxima instead of Kula either way (can always put her on Team Women Fighters)
>>495617718K' and Maxima are inseparable.
>>495621991Like I said, I'm fine with either
Probably would be too many teams I involving this side of KoF, but I don't care>Team K'K' - Maxima - Sylvie>Team Ikari ValkyriesLeona - Whip - Kula>Team Secret OpsAdelheid - Diana - Seth (or Gaidel if he is alive)>DLC: Team Ikari WarriorsHeidern - Ralf - Clark
>>495625237>>DLC: Team Ikari Warriors>Heidern - Ralf - ClarkAbsolutely fucking not, Ralf and Clark are evergreens and should stay that way.
>>495626062Nta, but that's an existing team from 94, and it didn't hurt Ralf and Clark's image one bit. In fact, it's a very popular choice.
>>495626524It's Ralf and Clark being DLC that's the problem, hell Heidern shouldn't be DLC again either. This isn't even like Kim getting sidelined in XV, this is practically the Ikari warrior duo getting benched.
>>495621991Nah, let K' grow up and be a big boy without needing Maxima around to handle social outings for him for once. Having to actually be the defacto responsible adult instead of shrinking away behind his tsun act for once on a team would be good for K'
>>495626062Mainstays should be allowed to miss being in the base roster at least 1 time, as treat *reminisces about Mai and Kim joining only later in XI and XV*
>>495626672oh god, I didn't even see the dlc before team name. But I wouldn't worry, all three are too popular to be benched, and the rule is that it's Adelheid that gets the shaft. Can't even imagine they would make Diana playable after giving up on it ages ago.
>>495626948No, and this is already fucking shit that this happens,I could tell you to bench Terry Bogard and you would rightfully call me retarded for even suggesting that. Ralf and Clark are as important as Terry and Ryo to KOF, and leaving those 2 to DLC is just fucking wrong. Plus who would be the consistent punch character if Ralf was DLC? Hell, who would take up the grappler mantle? Since Daimon doesn't consistently appear in KOFs.You're not gonna seriously suggest CYS and their Orochi forms to take up the mantle are you?
>>495625237Fuck no, one of the worst issues of XV roster is how Ikari-heavy it is. They need to get less spots, no more.
>>495626672nothing wrong with dlc! in fact, it is for post game release support hoyp!
>>495626825Even without Maxima, I can't imagine they would ever write K' as anything but usual tsun. They just gave up on the character once he was no longer the protagonist, same as with others. You'd sooner have Sylvie literally dragging him into the tournament.
>>495627303Terry is Mr. SNK, a bit different than Ralf and Clark as iconic as they are. And it's not like they can't add other punchy or grappler characters, either by returning old ones or making new ones, would be beneficial too since these are a bit underrepresented so the more the merrier in the long run
>>495617718They've been doing some light teasing with Yuri teaming up with Kula for a while. This could be an opportunity to have them grow up and expand their stories beyond the same old same old. And both VAs have the range to make it work as well.
>>495603532Me and my wife Vanessa
>>495630369Is this like Hinako asking Kyo to let her join the Japan Team in her win quote against him?>>495633721Your Vanessa's husband?
>>495627347Get ready for more Ikaris in Gaidel saga in Kof16
>>495633985Yes
>>495633985That goes both ways in their case.
>>495611345>>495612729>>495614158Just give her the "K9999 treatment". Done.
>>495634013You're being very optimistic, I don't expect him sooner than KOF23.
