The King of Fighters XIII/KOF-i News Thread

Gunny, I get the feeling that Atlus is now sole proprietor of SNK. Not only as a publisher, but as developer.
Honestly I feel positive vibes about this change.

Finally.

Hopefully, in the long long run, this means that we will get more info/videos of the bosses.

Seriously, there's nothing out there!

Um, I'm pretty sure Atlus USA has not bought out SNK Playmore.

I can totally get behind this, ASW, Atlus... As long as it's someone who has more dedication to their craft nowadays or something, I have lots of fears of KOF still being handled by the body of it's former self SNKP.

For one thing, I can certainly trust Atlus because of how well they promote their titles.

I had to see affinity posting about a rumor that the voices will be rerecorded to fit with Atlus' normal localization standards, I don't know it that is true or not, but I really hope they do get rerecorded.

A troll? On SRK? Nooo.

You must be really bored to start pointing KOF fans to SRK. Ew.

If you must know, I found the link at Dream Cancel...but I didn't know people were afraid of getting cooties from a hyperlink

Anyway this is the gist of the contents of the link:

I have confirmation from someone that collaborates closely with Atlus and the KOF XIII development team about the netcode, I can't say anything, -anything, but when I knew what KOF XIII will use as it's netcode, and I'm a huge skeptic, I became very happy and all I can say is that KOF XIII will have the best netcode of -all-, yes, and it's not an overstatement, ALL console fighting games released till now. News should be coming soon... at an important event somewhere. Sorry people, I can't clear up anything else.

...

I just can't throw out any information yet, but what I know will, hopefully be revealed soon at a coming event. If I say anything it'd be pretty easy to figure out what's going to be. I can say this however, it's something I, as a skeptic and more or less pesimist didn't think was going to happen. It might be KOF's startup point in the US. Actually, it surely will be.

[Gunsmith]

Let's not forget they said something similar about XII's netcode. Let's not get too excited. This guy is building up lots of hype and is known for playing 3S????

[hadoolket]

why are you guys listening to a bunch of words over netplay? at least let the rumor be something about leaked new options or characters or something. this is just plain absurd to even address and we should only bother paying attention to it once we get our hands on the game itself.

Billy Kane added

He's the "Billy" in the unused KOF XII 360 code

Here's hoping for one (or two) more console exclusive characters. (And a KOF XIII 2.0 for NESiCAxLive)

I guess it's only some time before they announce KOF 98 Iori as well..

Who are the others on the code again? Damn, been so long!

So if we're getting Billy and '98 Iori, will we get Eiji as well? LOL
