Man is it me or do a lot of the old supers in this game look more plain. Example whats up with kims hou ou kyaku and terrys oh my shit geyser???(what ever the name is) they lost the shadows....


I suppose its only a little thing but still kinda dumb i think.

Autogaurd never was a saving grace with me since it rarely actually helped me. That and the fact I hate that garbage anyway. Sounds like good news to me.

Don't care for the SF style shadows effect either. Now if the pause that appears upon execution bites the dust, it'll be like true old school SNK and I, for one, welcome that. This game might end up surpassing Vampire for a enjoyable past time if it weren't for those annoying super cancels.

well its not like you really use the autogaurd its just that its there....i dunno its like when i play as kyo im not like always trying just to go through moves with it or anything...but the fact is when its there you sorta feel safe(man that sounded dumb)..i dunno its there just as a extra measure of precaution......IT SHOULD STILL BE THERE!!!!!...

take ryos fist flash(foward,back,foward punch) well this move got block anamations back in 99....did it make it to powerfull???...no you still use it the same way that you used to but its there and i guess you sorta just have that bit of protection now....

perhaps if they made kyo punch combos faster(which i wouldn't like but...)like say combo from a standing lp i wouldn't mind that much...but that isn't the case....aslo besides appearing to lose his autogaurd kyo new version(the stuff you can do at the end) of the punch combos are sorta lame anyway.


i suppose shit happens but its just frustrating to see that i seem to already dislike this game without even have played it.

another one eh?....well i like shadows i think there pretty cool.....i guess im not to in love with the pause effect....but its there for dramatic porpuses i presume...perhaps if only certain supers had a pause before them...


super cancling yes that has also gotten on my nerves as of late as I find it pretty stupid....i think i'd like it better just to have it like a extra mode or advanced mode.....or how the supers were in 99.(K'.......man K' just benifted so well from that game system.)

Kyo losing the auto-guard is a little dissapointing but he is still as deadly as ever.I don't quite like his SDM throw super.He sounds like an iori rip-off doing that.Yeah man,i too like the shadows when doing the super.

Sup Yall,

This my very first post here....

I havin been playin KOF2k1 at my Uncle's arcade. It is the shiit. U have to get used to it though and play for awhile and learn al the moves.

Angel is tight as hell and K9999 is good addition to ur team. May lee is great too.

My Team is K'/K9999/Angel/May Lee, Vanessa, Iori, Kula, or Joe.

K' is basically the same maybe slightly faster but that happens every year for him. His Crow bite has super range. He is my fav KOF char.

K9999 is great. At first I thought he would be lame but he is tight. His "Shell" DM is anti-air beast, if u catch somein the corner with it make sure u do it twice. His uppercut doesnt leave the ground. His machine gun DM is OK but rarely hits. His "fireball" is dust and looks like Sol Badguy's Gun Flame from GGX. His "nasty arm SDM" is the shit. 50 percent damage. 25 percent BD.

ANGEL is a goddess. She fights like no other character EVER. All of he specials are chains. One of her Dms and her SDM have to be part of that chain to come out. Royalty Test for the rebel is clean it Rivals Chain Drive SDM. I havent seen her counter super but she has one it doesnt have to be chained tho.

May Lee not Mei Lei is a TKD killa. Dong wouldve been better but oh well. She is tight. IF YOU LIKE OLD SCHOOL KIM OR JHUN THEN PICK MAY LEE. She has both of thier moves basically put together. She uses 2 stances. She has a move like Kim's old super that kicked you up, I dont kno the name. Its a Dm for her. She also has a air rush super that is tight but looks kinda gooofy. Her SDM is the Shiiiiaaaaat! She does a SuPER jump kick thing. It's kinda like Leona Grenade SDM thing but its a kick. She lands on the side of u and does some hand gestures then u blow up but its tight. Some of her stance switch combos are tight tooo.

Vanessa is the same nuthin new but Her intro with Ramon is funny.

Iori is like his 2k form but he can link his DMs to make it look like ONE super. He cant go under fbs but most fbs are low to the ground anyway.

I gave up on KYo and switched to Iori.

Kula is the same.

Joe has a new super but its nuthin spetacular. Now he has 4 DMs. Clark stole his super kick.

OK oops.........

I just confired that Clark doesnt have a super kick. Someone lied to me when they told me that.

Sorry folks I shouldnt have reported till I confirmed it.

<IMG SRC="smilies/frown.gif" border="0"> My Bad...Oh well........

Well anyways............

May-Lee's Super kick is tight.

Coming in late to this discussion, I know, but I still haven't played this game yet.

Is it just me, or do some characters not know when to shut up and quit when they do their DMs? Judging from the movies, there are a lot of DMs (especially for Ignis) where the character starts hitting you, and keeps hitting you for about 25-30 minutes, pausing dramatically 2 or 3 times? That looks damned annoying. Anyone who's playing in arcades... you guys finding that you're standing around waiting for DMs to finish?

well i was watching some of the ending for kof2k1 yesterday and some combo vids...and i have come to another conculsion about the game...now grated i still havn't played it but here is a new opinion on it...

This game is dumb....i mean honestly I look at this game and for everything i like there is something stupid and just plain silly...i mean i was watching the korea ending and i was like.....this is a silly game.......perhaps this will just be wrote off some how.....it didn't help that i don't care for the art style ethier.....im looking at this and im like geez....im a better artist than this.(sorry if the artist who did the game reads this but i don't care for the stlye.....again sorry)It just is annyoing to look at. Kinda like masami O something can't remember his last name..he did fatal fury...it just is annyoing to look at...not that any of you before metioned guys arn't good but its just not my style..also i don't care for the music ethier......

anyway kof2k1 you are a silly game.

Hey, I told you KoF is KoF. Of course it's going to be perfect and all. I'll still play it. Hell, I didn't pre-order it for nothing. As long as it's KoF, I'll buy it, like I've done with all of the other KoF games I own. I won't know how the music sounds until I get the OST in the mail. I order that too. I'll admit though, I'm not much of a fan on the art either. It ain't Shinkiro's art, I'll tell ya that. But, I'm sure when you play 2k1, you'll change your mind.
