Played the patch. Works great. I've been getting flawless matches. Everyone in the room went bananas when they tried it. A good day.

Can't wait to try it myself. Party mode has worked well enough. I hope I'll have to eat my words about how the netcode was gonna be shit.

I finally got around to getting online post-patch. It's definitely much better. There can still be some difficulty establishing a connection, but once it did, all the matches were fine.
I'm trying to playing a Samurai Shodown team of Bandeiras, Nakoruru, and Leona, but Bandeiras is really hard to play effectively when you don't have setups/traps for the entire cast. I'm thinking of swapping him for Kukri or Mian at least in the short term.

Hi guys, it's been a while. Lurked now and then but life just got too busy to stay active on forums for me.
Anyway, holy shit 62 pages. What's the general concensus here of the game? I'm sure the NG purists hate it...
Me? I don't LOVE it, but there hasn't been a new SNK game in a while so I will play it and I do like it quite a bit despite some very strong issues I have with the game.
Anyway, the best part for me is that this is the beginning of a new era of SNK games. Like it or not, SNK is back.
PS: F*** Nokururu!!

Sum it up. Looks kinda crappy/ok, plays great. Netcode is decent. Many annoyed they went to 3d.

Similar look as well.
I can confirm, this worked fine for me on a buddy's system.

I got to lpay a couple hours of this at a friend's place this week, and was pretty pleasantly surprised. It plays like a middle-of-the-road King of Fighters. Not mind-blowing, but nothing was botched, and I usually take a while to warm up to new fighting games. The transition to 3D went as well as I could've reasonably expected. Again, doesn't look beautiful, but not bad by any means. A lot of special moves feel like they are closer-range than I would've expected, but I think I feel that way about most KOF games after playing more Capcom-y fighters. This is a solid B- in my book, and that rating will probably go up once I've had more time with it.
Oh, and it has an actual character roster, unlike Street Fighter 5. I'd WAY sooner buy KOF 14 than SFV; KOF is a complete game right out of the box, whereas SFV has that nickle-and-dime shit. $30 just to unlock the first 5 additional characters comes out to $6, or one burrito, per character. No thank you.

Got to play it. The graphics are very inconsistent. Some stages look nice, but some stages look like crap(Antonov stage). It could use more texture detail on the characters and stages, and it would look a lot better. Online play, even after the patch is not on SFV level, sadly. It's still inconsistent, but hey, at least you get the full game with more content and tons of characters day 1 with no DLC BS. The gameplay is what you would expect, but I find it to be too floaty and slow paced. It lacks that solid feel of past KOF games like KOF 98 where moves look like it has the impact and extra oomph/pop.

Glad the patch has addressed two major issues with legacy controller support (even though I use a PS4 Hori stick) and online. They did this pretty fast and I am happier with SNK these days.
Good God I have a lot to learn with this game. There are so many brutal combos and crazy armor tricks with some characters that I will be going in blind if I try to fight people online that know what they are doing right now, lol. As for the floatyness and pace of the game. Yeah, it isn't KOF 98 2D fast but it feels just fine to me. That shit didn't stop me from playing Samurai Shodown 1 and 2, or Art of Fighting 3 that were worse with it, lol. Hell, I feel SFV has some weird delay with doing hard punches and kicks that feels off (going against Bison with his V-Trigger, fucking christ).

For those having trouble with Nakoruru, gato_ray is posting videos for ways to punish her crouch HP.
Also, in case you missed the post earlier, you can do a forward guard roll after her annu mutsube follow up for full punish (needs a meter though). You can also hit her with some attacks like Terry's Crack Shot while she is clinging on the bird.
And, lol:
