Also, this roster leak happened like in Jan-Feb. So, that means they likely had a while. Plus, I remember reading something at one point about how they started on XIV in 2012, though I can't seem to find that article right now.

Well, this seems to give some credence to an old leak, that had the following: China Team: 恶魇青年 (?), 糖葫芦 (Tung Fu Rue), 枕头少年 (?) Japan Team: 草蕹京 (Kyo Kusanagi), 二阶堂红丸 (Benimaru Nikaido), 大门五郎 (Goro Daimon) Fatal Fury Team: Terry Bogard, Andy Bogard, 东丈 (Joe Higashi) Art of Fighting Team: 坂崎良 (Ryo Sakazaki), Robert Garcia, 坂崎百合 (Yuri Sakazaki) K’ Team: K’, Maxima, Kula Diamond Kim Team: 金家藩 (Kim Kaphwan), 他师父 (Kim’s Master), 他师母 (Kim’s Wife) Criminal Team: 犯人陈 (Prisoner Chang Koehan), 犯人蔡 (Prisoner Choi Bounge), 新人囚犯 (Newcomer Prisoner) Women Fighters Team: 不知火舞 (Mai Shiranui), King, Alice Ikari Team: Ralf Jones, Clark Still, Leona Heidern Psycho Soldier Team: Athena Asamiya, 椎拳崇 (Sie Kensou), 摸元斋 (Chin Gentsai) Yagami Team: 八神庵 (Iori Yagami), Mature, Vice Mexico Team: Ramon, Angel, Tizoc Palace Wan Team: 脸谱女 (Acting Mask Girl), 电属性少女歌手 (Teenage Girl Singer with Electric Element), 神秘兜帽男 (Mysterious Hooded Man) South Town Team: Geese Howard, Billy Kane, 营家新人 (?) South America Team: 巴西忍者 (Brazilian Ninja), 残障拳击手 (Handicap Boxer), 拉丁美女 (Pretty Latin Girl) Alternate World Team: 娜可露露 (Nakoruru), Love Heart, 龙娘 (Mui Mui) Mid-boss: 俄罗斯富豪 (Russian Billionaire) Final Boss: 人形态非人类物种 (Non-Human Species)

Oh, I know, I felt the same way with Last Blade 2. I was just like "What?! Holy shit!" And sent the news to all my fighter buddies.

KOF14 will have 16 teams and 50 characters according to that Playstation Experience show. Showed additional characters, like Ralf Jones, Billy Kane, Kula Diamond, and Angel.

Fang got shown: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cy1oO_OpuYA Also, the 6 DLC characters were confirmed as the ones we already knew.

Wait, Dengeki handled well? I messed with the game and brought it back to the store, because it felt really wonky to play. It wasn't fluid at all, and a lot of moves had weird feeling inputs (and that comes from a KOF fan).

Yes indeed it still does. Yatagarasu has better production value.

Does this game look like a jank-as-hell freeware game still?

"2002 aside"? I mean, I agree 14 looks awful, but, why the jab at 2002? 2002UM was great.

Sony's footing KOF14, so it's coming out on PS4. That's as much as we know about releases. But, it stands to reason it'd come straight to PS4 in that case, and probably an arcade revision later.

SRK is reporting a roster leak. If this is true, i'm even more sad, because this roster is awesome http://shoryuken.com/2015/11/04/king-of-fighters-xivs-roster-may-have-leaked-months-ago/

Anyone still want to try and tell me that this game looks fine, or that it doesn't matter when it looks this awful?

Dumbing down SF's gameplay and using really crappy models worked for SF4, maybe they're hoping the same combination of stupid-simple gameplay and terrible models works in KOF14?

Just saying, resource data for 6 characters were also found in the beta for SF5. These specific 6 characters are Ibuki, Alex, Urien, Juri, Guile, and Balrog. Considering they mentioned 6 characters to be added, and there were 6 characters in the files, leads me to think these are the DLC. There were also 2 character files labeled "TUT" and "FAN" (all of the character files are abbreviated, 3 letter names), but none for "ZEN", so I think Zen might be "FAN". To be more specific about the resource data found, it detailed the amount of bones in the character model, and the amount of triangles used for the models. The models for each of these 6 character files I mentioned were around the same as Ryu's, usually higher actually, though sometimes slightly less.

I couldn't find a character theme option. Did I miss something?

Whenever you input the command to dash, you have 1 specific frame you must input the punch on. If you do, it increases in damage, range, and has less recovery.

Karin's really good and has answers for most anything, and playing as only Ken is super lame

I like KOF normally, these graphics are just like, PS2 quality.

And now it's considered playable? Graphics aren't changing much. GG KOF14, you look horrible. Hope you play good.

I'm glad I got to support this. I loved Fighting is Magic and was really sad when it got stopped. I STILL hate this stupid name, but, i'm glad it came together.

This one's been up for several hours and is being hosted by EB Games Brazil. So, I think it'll stay up.

Street Fighter V's Laura got a trailer, and she looks absolutely glorious. Definitely my favorite newcomer so far.

I'm going to see who gets announced before I decide. Currently i'd say Hibiki, but, i'm going to be all about Jubei, regardless of gameplay style, should he be announced. Even if he's not, there's no guarantee I won't just absolutely love someone new besides Hibiki.

You know, I actually like Zangief, and i'm loving his new tools (except that super, get that shit out of here), but, my reaction was this: GOD FUCKING DAMMIT!!!!!!!! Was supposed to be Alex (far more interesting grappler) and Urien, not Zangief and (most likely revealed at NYCC) Guile for the last 2 returning character slots. Here's hoping the last 2 new characters just blow me away, because this roster is super weak right now. Seemingly 8 SF2 characters in a roster of 16? I'm liking a lot of changes to the returning characters, mind you, but just...Jesus, SF3 got no one, and neither did 4 (not that I particularly want anyone from 4 other than Decapre and maybe El Fuerte, but still). SF2 is not THAT damn good that we needed all this. It really should have been an relatively even split between the games, like so: SF2: Ryu, Chun, Bison SFA: Nash, Mika, Karin SF3: Alex, Urien, Sean (SI/GI or NG Sean, not 3S Sean) SF4: El Fuerte, Decapre, Juri SF5: Necalli, Rashid, "Laura", "Zen" Still keeps within 16 characters, more even split to represent all parts of the series, etc.

Just wanted to say that the game unlocks on Steam at 9PM EDT tomorrow. This is an unusually late time.
