I've always thought the poor sales of these KOF XIV DLC costumes are the reason SNK refuses to make outfits for their other games now. But holy shit, it's their own fault. Most of them are boring as fuck. Angel's is hot, but nobody plays her in XIV anyway. Plus, the choices were fucking terrible. Who the hell thought giving Meitenkun a costume before popular chars like Mai or Terry was a good idea?

>>575597046
>Did anybody else think back then we would be getting this type of shit tenfold in XV?
i was expecting snk to finally graduate from bush league and actually have higher output on alt costumes
so little did i know that snk themselves would claim:
>nobody buys costumes *capcom sells many in ur're path*
>it takes half the time of making a full character to make an alt costume (lol)

If this absolute, astonishingly pathetic performance doesn't change the way SNK develops their games and operates in-general, there's actually no hope nor future for this company. Imagine having a game with 5 fucking guest characters, having a ton of retarded marketing that's the most any of their games ever got, and having a DLC schedule that's monthly, yet absolutely no-one gives a shit. In practically no-capacity whatsoever are people other than the same few SNK fans interested.

She was a bottom 3 character before the patch and with the latest patch she's... less bad I guess? Before she quite literally had nothing, could even punish 1 rekka on block. Her gameplan is mostly to just throw out the big fireball and then try to confirm into rekkas

That game killed itself just by being a dogshit game with terrible balance and one of the most boring showings at EVO (every single team was Omni Man + Rex Splods doing the same shit) and on top of that they had to gall to add microtransactions before fixing the game.

I'm trying to pick up COTW and I've never played an SNK game seriously before.
Could you recommend me a character who plays a relatively standard game but who has clear strengths and weaknesses?
I bought the version that has all the season 1 and 2 DLC back when it was on sale.

>>575613672
That’s what they get for copying sf6’s desing.

>>575620654
It was a rhetorical question.
Invincible VS was as relevant as that one game apparently showing how irrelevant CotW is and now people hype up Tokon and Avatar the same.
Now, I doubt that Tokon will crash and burn as hard at least tournaments wise (DBFZ players got to move somewhere).
Regardless, speaking of CotW it was delusional to think that its Season 3 actually competes with other games. No one would ever look at a new season of the game they don't play and decide to play it over shiny new releases. That window of opportunity was over for CotW two seasons ago, okay?
The only important thing that it shows is that SNK is willing to support their game scene even if it is dead relative to other games. It does count for something when you have Western devs abandoning MK1, INVS support or some other Japanese devs giving up on pushing their latest versions of the game such as VF5REVO and DOA6LR. It also lets the game and the company to stay in zeitgeist, even if most people don't really care.

>>575621553
Try Terry. He'll give you the most honest game experience, while being decently strong.

>>575622224
holy shit give it up you fucking autistic retard

Trying to decide on a point char for KOFXV. Who is the best between Shun'ei, Angel, or Vanessa?

>>575622526
Autistic? A little bit.
Retard? Quite a strong word from someone who doesn't want to actually provide actual arguments to why anything I say is wrong.
Everyone, except for the most stupid or the most invested fans, knows and accepts that CotW won't get any more popular than it already is. There are no turnarounds in the space for the games that don't have an already established dormant fanbases.
Saying "CotW is dead because it doesn't get players at new tournaments, despite the S3" is about as meaningful as if you said that "CotW is dead because there's a strong influence of retrograde Mercury" or some shit. You don't even try to figure out why it is still there in the first place, despite being unpopular and abhor people who actually try to figure out the company strategy.

>>575624442
Are you running them as a team? How good are you with them?
Shun is easy to fit in any position, but recently I've seen him on point more.

>>575625935
No, I'm playing Kukri and Luong as mid and anchor. Trying to decide who I want as my first postion character. Other than just knowing the bnbs, I can't really say I'm that great with any of them right now

>>575626514
You can work with Angel, but she's very technical and does better with meter, even if you can run her wherever.
Vanessa is only worth getting in if you really like how she plays.
Shun'ei is the most meta pick out of the three.
You can also try Isla.

Maybe i'm not good enough speak on the game yet but after picking this game up with Rick's release and grinding rank ever since(climbed to gold so far and now aiming for plat) I have to say a lot of the things ppl told me about cotw neutral to convince me to pick it up if i'm not enjoying the nature of drive rush in SF6 was total bullshit.

Like after dealing with this neutral especially run chars, fuck me, i'll take checking drive rush over run jump, run up throw, run up stop outside sweep range and wild punish your run check with a long range poke all while also mixing in jumps, hops, and lighting fast advancing specials that are waaaay too safe.

If it's dead you are beating a dead horse..
All it takes is a few people to get sick of SF6 (happening) and some popular streamers to start playing it more seriously. Gameplay is there imo. There isn't many modern options in this genre unless you like tranny fighters.

Is it true COTW will get a 2v2 mode?

>>575653301
if it isn't, it should
if only because the first game had a 2v1 mode
and it should also get a lane play mode in conjunction with ringout mode
and a more classic fatal fury gameplay mode or classic motw mode
these are merely just flags you can set and they don't even know how to program *that*

>>575652725
>If it's dead you are beating a dead horse..
It is dead in the sense that it won't meaningfully grow the audience and is only there to serve the current one.
Personally, I just enjoy it casually at the moment sometimes, while while waiting for the next game. Of course, looking forward for the single-player updates as well.
>All it takes is a few people to get sick of SF6 (happening) and some popular streamers to start playing it more seriously. Gameplay is there imo. There isn't many modern options in this genre unless you like tranny fighters.
What did people that are sick of MK1 start playing? What did people that are sick of Tekken 8 start playing?
Look, I wish being a better game was enough to be a game people would play over their main passion, but often enough people would either stick with the shitty game they got or take a break from playing seriously altogether rather than switch games.
Dunno if you know about TCGs, but do you know that despite quite shitty state of MTG and YGO both games still got a pretty big audience despite better games being out there? And unlike fighting games, you have to whale a lot to play them.

>>575653301
There will be an official 2v2 tournament, so it should, but we don't know any specifics.

>>575653439
>and it should also get a lane play mode in conjunction with ringout mode
What's crazy is that it isn't like that by default.
Like the game with ringouts had lanes

>get guaranteed punish
>do heavy punch into special move
>special move doesn't come out because heavy punch is 2 hits
i'm having fun with this game but this is driving me crazy

Oh, it will. They'll dumb them down further. What you have to understand is modern devs are lost. Social media's got their minds all fucked up and pulled in so many directions, they don't know what a good fighting game is anymore. Back in the days, they made classic games with far less feedback. Yet now everyone's shouting opinions at them, the games are worse. Logically, it should be the other way around, right? The FGC is legitimately killing smaller games quickly, and bigger games, slowly.

Streamers,
parasocial followers,
reddits,
twitter,
shady developer-influencer relationships,
10 year sunken cost games,
brand worship,

^they are killing the games and poisoning developer decisions, and there's no way back.
