ok today myself and fellow member honeyman went to the loke test...
i took around 7 pages of notes and planned to put them all up but i am not really sure i can be bothered at this point..
my first impression upon seeing the game was:
"this is kof 1 on 1 with slightly better graphics"
remember that is my intial impression the second i saw the game, not having actually played it.
the backgrounds of which there are eight (possibly the final number + any secret stages becoz i mananged to peak of the shoulder of one of the girls timing the matches (vs matches) and she had a little sheet with drawn mock-ups of each stage, only eight were listed) are very sparse and sorta have a sweeping epic kof 2000 bladerunner or star wars influence to them.
they are:
1.
final (tenative final) boss stage in front of an ancient japanese temple where the two characters have a glowing outline to represent standing on the closer side of firelight, looks very cool.
2.
a train yard or something akin to the train yard in 98, looks like it is abandoned though.
3.
the inside a castle or cathedral stage shown in the e3 vid
4.
in a dark looking forest fighting in the water, looks great but again devoid of life... NOTE most of the stages are quite well animated though making them seem more part of the scene than a backdrop.
5.
a stage that reminds me of goenitzs which looks like its in the parthenon or seomthing. again very epic feel with great music and a spinning power crystal in the background and what seems to be jesus with his back to the players.
6.
a star wars type background with some giant machine turning in the background and giant columns that look like part of a giant computer in the foreground...
7. + 8.
cant remember the other two at the moment more as i remember it..
