I've decided that the only thing I really want beyond the normal shit is Ein to be unlockable. I don't care if he's exactly as he was in 4 (just give him his Neo outfit from 3) but put him in goddamnit.

Lol. Having EIN back would be awesome and it would certainly make alot of players happy.

Who do you guys think we will see next week ? Rig or Mila ?
Its gonna be a new character. :D
should be awesome!

Hmm, I think we'll be seeing 2 new characters along with a Tag Trailer, "the pictures we seen from IGN"...Bass and Tina doing a Tag grab to Kokoro so it's safe to say she'll have an actual partner as well such as "Eliot, Brad Wong, or her half sister Helena"?

So it's possible we could see like 3 characters.

The last tweet specifically said "a character new to the series", so it's probably going to be a VF character, or a brand new one.

All of the tag stuff was shown at E3. The only "new" characters in that build were Sarah and Bass. As I recall, Akira was Kokoro's tag partner.

If the next reveal is a brand new character, I will be stoked... more so than if it was Helena.

I have not played KoF13, but I was also under the impression it had lackluster net code.
the netcode is not as bad as people make it sound, in fact you can get really good matches in with 2 bar connections, but when it does lag...it lags badly.
I've had the same experience SCV's netcode, it's better netcode internationally...then again, I mostly play people closer to home so...*shrugs*

It's not unplayable is what im saying.

Gonna go ahead and disagree with this. 2 bars is unplayable. I had at least 1 second of button delay on 2 bars. I mean this literally. It is not hyperbole. I counted. KoF is barely playable with 3 bars. I've yet to see 4 bars, even post patch, with people I have amazing connections with in every other fighter.

KoF's netcode is terribad and shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence as SC5's amazing online play except to mention the opposite ends of the spectrum.

Thank you. You just made my day.

I have a strong feeling the new character reveal will be Rig. I think they'll leave the females for last to generate hype. As long as shes not like ... 7 years old or something. >___>

I want TKD, Team Ninja.

I think it's time you gave in and added a Korean.

Koreans are awesome.
^This.

And if it's a chick, don't make her look like she's a lost member of the Amazoness Quartet from Sailor Moon Super S using Rita Repulsa's hairstyle either! I want someone more like Chae Lim, dad-gummit! Chae Lim!

It's honestly not even that bad lol. I was able to hit confirm and do HD combo's online in 3-4 bars with Ash Crimson (who is probably one of the hardest characters to do combo's with, including he's a charge character). There were others who were able to do the same with the characters they've played. So maybe you had a different experience -shrugs-



These were online btw.... Before the patch.

On topic though. I think it's about time for a TKD fighter as well >.> Bi Rain as a guest character lol.

lol...My girlfriend loves Bi Rain. She has an arcade stick with his abs on it.

Sarah has some TKD like moves already too. =P

Yeah, but I want to see Team Ninja's take on TKD. It's the difference between Brad Wong and Shun Di. Both drunken style, but for me, Wong's animation and style is much better and more fun to watch.

I doubt any of the new characters will be Korean if Rig and Mila are their real names.

Because BRAD Wong sounds like a drunken boxing practitioner? :p

And I think people said that rig, at least, is a placeholder name used in previous DoA games.

Did a name search/meaning generator thingie.

Mila came up with a Russian origin for a female name ( :eek: Bayman's squeeze ).

Rig could be male or female with a swedish origin, guess we'll see.

I'm down for a DOA Chae Lim/May Lee, but Sarah does seem like she has that covered atm.

Her last name is Ho. She had just received her MA.

Many jokes were had.

The worst part is how damn comfortable this thing is to use. lol. I use it all the time. Got funny looks at a gathering I took it to so I could test it out.

I wouldn't say that. Koko and Akira are plenty different. If Shun Di were in DoA, he and Brad would be very different.

If Sarah and Hwoarang were in the same game, they'd be very different. Hell, Hwaorang and Baek are both TKD, but each is very unique. It's entirely possible to have a different take on the same fighting style. :D
