This game doesn't look good, at all. :/

EDIT: okay, gameplay wise, we can't say much, so the game might be good in this aspect.

But the animations, something on the level of KI would be good.

If the game used sprites would look better.

oh man
chang
my favorite character
the one we all wanted to return
amazing
 
Ugh, those claw marks on Iori attacks... This looks REAL bad.

Even addition of my main, Leona, isn't making this game look good to me.
 
Jesus really.

SNK
"There is No Future"

Remember Metal Slug level of sprites before 6? THAT was the shit. Who are they trying to appeal here?

Probably all the people who think that 2D gaming is dead.
 
The dislike bar on that video shows how people are unhappy.

I want this game to be good, but everything indicates that it will not be.
 
That article makes no sense, King of Fighters XIV is something we have known about for at least a year, if not a couple years. Also, how do Leona and Chang confirm a leaked roster? That's like saying a leaked roster with Cammy and Bison is significant.

That said, I'm really not happy with that roster, Tizoc and Geese are cool, but unless those unnamed characters are cool I have no one else who aren't main stays to care about.

I personally didn't hear about KoF XIV until first teaser so I dunno about this "at least a year".

You also apparently didn't read the article. The interesting thing is that it's Chang in a prisoner uniform, which was mentioned in the list and it seems like a weird detail to just guess and hit.

They confirmed "the new KoF game" they were working on was 3D in December last year and I'm 80% sure that was the second time they confirmed they were working on a new KoF game, the only reason people thought it could be dead was that we didn't get any news after that and then they were acquired.

No, I skimmed the article, so I didn't pick up on that and it is my fault.

hypest thing is probably Kim's Wife if so
she's probably a cutie for justice
 
Fatal Fury villains team (South Town) without Blue Mary? ;_; mah main is sidelined yet again.
 
Chang and Leona appeared on the 2nd video trailer.
Yes?
 
Some translations for the things with ? next to them:

China Team's first member: Nightmare youth
China Team's third member: Pillows juvenile
I can only assume due to who Tung Fu Re is that these are two of his students maybe???

South Town Team's unkown member: New camp home
Uh... I got nothing
 
KOF related and trailer to the cellphone game. If XIV look like that in that trailer nobody would complain about the game's graphics.

Most of the alternate translations for the camp character have military connotations. We're probably gonna see a military official of some kind.
 
Well if they release a third trailer with even better graphics we might even just hope at release the game will have decent ones.

I'm not even a fan of this game but I wanted to get in because of the pixelart. And then this.
 
I dunno... It'd need at least a year of polish before it could compare with current gen titles.

If KoFXIV looked like that, it wouldn't exist because a full game of that would burn cash at an industrial rate.

Roster leak certainly looking likely, god damnit, it saddens me that the more we get, the worse it seems. I'll still hold out for people to actually get their hands on it.

What are the chances Yagami Team won't be as neutered as they were in XIII? Mature was okay at least, but Vice hurts.
 
The replacement of Blue Mary still makes me sad. Was hoping for her to appear in a modern kof
 
Mexico Team is pretty hype at least
rip Orochi team, though
i wanted Shermie and Akihiko but rip

i wanted Shermie
Let's hope for good enough gameplay that it'd be worth following up with a dream match.
I need Yamazaki back, as well as these.

I see Elizabeth's team is gone, too. Eh.

The two new team's sound interesting, at the least
 
yoyoyoyoyoyoyoyo
YO

you telling me the man without the plan
the puncher of punchers
the glorious blondie SHEN MOTHAFUCKIN' WOO
ain't gonna be coming back?!?!
 
Also a bit surpised only Tizoc is getting in from Garou. Also no Lon. I'll live, but he seemed a consistent char to lose
 
Yeah, he's been replaced.

I'm sorry.
I don't understand.
he got replaced with a lame version of Leo Kliesen?
 
You guys better hope they'll add DLC characters, but it's probably gonna be limited.
Were looking at a 50 character roster. This has to be a dream match because that's the biggest roster story-wise (without counting home console extras). Making a story for 16 teams is a bit nuts (NEST saga got away with that because teams of 4).

Better start send letters to SNK playmore like you're giving Goku your energy.
