KOF XIII General Discussion/Rant Thread

[Toxic Avanger]

Dear diary, the game actually started to distribution in my city roughly the 19, however due to the local business nature stores don't pack many copies of each game regardless of what game it is, and as such the copies of the game have become something incredible rare and stores that carry few copies of the game sell them out in 12 hours or so. As such, I have spent my free time the last few days walking throughout a record setting heat wave from store to store just to hear a "comeback tomorrow, it should arrive by then", or "it's sold out already".

Right now I'm gonna bathe, and re-live the painful process again.

Also, I know that I shouldn't be surprised, but it's quite obvious that the game has been completely raped already, so if you follow sprite rip sites you might be in for a treat, or something. So thank you Xbald, for being such a easy to rape console.

I still dont have my copy

[Fuu]

I still dont have my copy :(

By the power of wind, ship faster, my package!

[Perfect Stranger]

Online play is just terrible for me
Also: If I create an arcade match, and I find out that the challenger has a shite connection to me, I can't turn down the fight request? SO FUCKING TERRIBLE.

[Toxic Avanger]

Dear diary.....



Now only Dark Chaotix is left.

[kadosho]

Oo, is that.. no way that can't be that cel from the 3rd FF ova.


Who doesn't love Mai? C'mon! (*I actually love her new voice, gives her a bit more of a feline type of sound..)
Mature and Vice are also fun to play, but I rarely see anyone play them. ;=; so sad
King players? A few, but I managed to sneak in a few good matches.
Going to practice some more before I go online next time.

[Fuu]

I don't have the game either, that was a "me too" post

Wait Mai doesn't sound 50 anymore? *Cancels order*

[ZeroSoulreaver]

I feel bad for those of you who still don't have the game yet .

I was trying to play Duo Lon but can't since Mature rekkas are killing my hands. Not sure how I'd do with 2 rekka chars on the same team.
Just waiting on a new part for my TE stick since the stupid square gate is hindering. It should be here by Dec 1st just in time for Ex Iori.

Anyway, been doing trials for everyone in my main team and Ash's flame kick cancel into ex genie is really annoying. I can get it down only 20% of the time and then can't land the rest of the combo when I do. The timing is just so fast it seems. Oh well, ill break it down and figure it out.

[Anti-K']

Who doesn't love Mai? C'mon!

*slowly raises hand*

I haven't had too much trouble with lag, mostly because I play only local opponents.

[kadosho]

For those of you stuck, and unsure how to move on through Story mode. Visit here http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showthread.php?p=4713557
No spoilers given, just tips on what teams to choose, to unlock more scenes.

*Now more to find! Select scene 12, with team AOF, finish bout, then you can watch scene 21
**Try different teams through scene 12, perhaps it unlocks more cutscenes? Will update with more progress.

[Fat Cat Lim]

Ugh, my online matches have been terrible. Lag, lag everywhere.

Think I'll try hooking up a lan cable instead of playing wirelessly...

[ZeroSoulreaver]

It's weird, some days I have bad lag and others I don't. Today and yesterday I played a few decent connections and a few bad connections yet they all say 3-4 bars. I notice that the "delay" display bars are broken or something because most of the time it changes every 5 mins. I don't know what that's all about.

The lag really kills my gameplay since I play characters who rely on good timing. It's like the slightest hiccup is instant death for me.

[PyroRyuken]

It seems like everyone's having lag issues :c. I can't get any matches above 1 bar connections no matter how hard I try. I even have re sync my connection with people between character fights. Even the character selection screen lags LOL. I find myself putting in another fighter like BB where I can get online matches with practically zero lag.

[Dark_Chaotix]

is BB code that good?

[hadoolket]

it's a lot more responsible than kof's in general, and that's not just because of the input window leniency, you can try out moving around and you can see how responsive it is

kofxiii's responsiveness is quite a few frames slower

i have quite a few losses because i'm not used to the latency yet, so i've been trying to get used to it in the meantime diligently so

but snkplaymore needs to fix this, and not atlus, whom everyone seems wanting to blame instead
