Here I got some more rumors about kof2k1 from Japanese Neo sites and Eolith Korean boards...

1.The total number of characters are 41

2.There are 5 edit characters (similar to kof 97 style).
They are Kyo, Iori, Diana, Foxy and Candy.

3.K' team - K', Maxima, Whip , Gerald (nests?)??

4.Majority of new characters are original rather than
ex-snk fighters from RB,FF, and AOF.

5.Again...no Heidern in Ikari team this year, but
they have new girl fighter call Elen (uses marshal arts??).

Telling you again this is only rumor and not
officially confirmed news...
Well...thats all for now...

I'd like to see a new outfit for Iori, something like another Iori's outfit in 2000.

I think the possibility of this rumour being true is very low because 41 characters is more than enough and return of foxy, candy and diana sounds like a totally made up rumour. even if they are coming then why don't they form a team with Kula instead of all of them appearing in edit. Names of two characters (Elen and Gerald) leaked out at this point of time doesn't sound true either.

anyway, the rumour is still cool to hear. bring on good hopes! <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

--->
Kof 2000 had 34+ Kula and Zero which makes 36 already.
I don't think entry of 5 more characters are too much.

you are right, but what...if they are secret mid-boss characters,
then it makes sense....

Kof 97 had
-2 playable edit characters (Shingo& Iori)
-3 hidden edit characters (O.Iori, O.Leona, and Orochi: Japan only)
and
-One hidden teams (O.Yashiro, O.Shermie, and O.Chris)

Its quite a lot..I think..
Kof 21 is possibly the last episode of Nests story, which makes it
similar to 97's the end of Orochi saga. Considering 97 had 5 edit char.
plus one secret teams, there are no reasons why there can't be more than
2~3 edit characters.


Names of two characters (Elen and Gerald) leaked out at this point of
time doesn't sof ound true either.

I agree with you for that one, but we'll have to see...

anyway, the rumour is still cool to hear. bring on good hopes!

Yeah...thats true..

I'm not trying to say this rumor is accurate.

I brought it, because I thought this one makes at least
more sense while many others just talking about returning
characters which rather looks like individual wish list for me
than rumors.

Eolith now got a license for kof, which means the license of
all the new characters will belong to them. Even if SNK returns
and take kof back, they'll still got the right to use those new
characters for their future fighting games.
This is chance for Eolith to get know-how of making fighting games
and advertising their characters in kof before the release of their
own titles. I think Eolith will put more original characters than
using old characters, and above rumor says exactly same things.

You forgot 94 Kyo. I'll continue to wait until I see some pictures myself, though I really hope that the info on the Ikari team is true. Never liked Heidern.

In kof 2000 is the only KOF that didn´t put Characters from another series of SNK (Strikers no count) so is improbably that KOF 2001 haven,t another that the typical (I hear about the return of Yamazaki, probably in the side of N.E.S.T.S) <IMG SRC="smilies/spock.gif" border="0"> .

No Ikari team?

NOOO! NOOOOOOOO!!!

That would suck. Where would we be without the comedy of Ralf and Clark? Or the killing machine that is Leona?

I hate that rumor.

Hey...

The rumor doesn't say there will be no Ikari team... <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

It just says no Heidern in Ikari team for kof2001.

Anyhow, its still only rumor and we will have to wait and see.

Oh, my bad. But having Heidern in the Ikari team WOULD be incredibly cheap, if you think about it. Maybe someone new in the team to replace Whip would be cool, though. Like maybe another rogue NESTS cyborg from a squadron rivalling Maxima's, or something.

Come on, that would be cool. It'd make the team incredibly CHEAP, yes, but it'd be cool.

No..Rain not really <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

If I thought so, I could simply delete the post.

I don't find any problem with it.

Think I was just a bit too ehthusiastic to reply, because its the topic brought by me.
