Why does KOF XII suck so much? (Was "So KOF XII is delayed?")

[hanafuda]

Why on earth is the PS3's save file copy protected?

 

[Billkwando]

Game plays fine in Japan, so net code is not entirely 'fucked'.

Dude, Japan's just one big LAN.

That's like taking a gun with no sights, shooting a barrel at point-blank range, and then saying "See? The aim isn't entirely 'fucked'."


Edit: I wanted to make a joke about Tokyo Eyes, but I didn't think anybody here might've seen it. Also, has anybody actually asked Bobak to change the title?

 

[LWK]

Looking at hanafuda's sig makes me wanna play KOF XII.

Oh wait up, nm.

 

[Giby]

D, we need to have another meet.

 

[LWK]

Yeah man, i'm about ready for that to. Pick a day. Maybe you and jaime can teach me some things about KOF XII. I have never had a single serious offline match in it, which is just ashame, cause FYCN, aka Caleb won't touch it.

 

[Metal Slugnuts]

Well I'm glad I have local people to play.

I guess the clan's fucked though.

And man, there is nothing wrong with your attitude or direction for wanting to learn this game. This is nobody's fault but SNKP's, and ignition can't fix it either, but they've been cool enough to try.

Unlike SNKP who won't even be respectful enough to issue a formal apology for such a letdown, but instead holidays like golden week fly by while the companies biggest release of the decade sits around, getting horrible attention from critics and major review sites shunning it constantly. Seriously, they act like they completely don't give a shit, even about profits or anything, none of it makes sense. They really should have stepped up here. Even fucking SEGA apologized regarding there dip in quality, so its time for SNKP to follow suit and start being a professional company again.

If they haven't learned by now how to make a online game good for americans, they just screwed up.

You know what I wanna see? The employee's of SNKP playing this game online over here.

This whole situation shows terrible disrespect for us as human beings, a complete lack of even bothering to learn the market they are spitting a ton of games into. Like really, I can't believe how stupid this whole thing is. I feel like someone's senile grandparents released this game.

The first step to getting to know us is to have better public relations. For christ sakes one of SFIV's CREATORS, Ono was at evo giving out autographs and having fun with fans. Why the hell is the SNK fanbase so terribly disrespected? I can't think of more loyal fans who deserve better attention.

Here here

I was a huge cheerleader of XII for the past two months, but it's ridiculous how many people are complaining without a peep from SNKP.

I wonder if they feel even less obligated for the US market now that SNKPA is gone...just shoveling shit to Ignition and saying "sell this".

 

[Blue Steel]

Obviously they don't care.

The online experience for me is decent at times and bad at others. I'm not really sure how much better it is. Now I can actually play sometimes, but it's not perfect. I wish they'd release more DLC and improve the game, but I doubt they will. Hopefully my girlfriend will play this with me soon.

Oh I bet she'll be jigglin' yo joystick

So are you a battop or a balltop?

I'm not holding my breath for DLC unless Ignition puts its foot down. It's not like SNKP is the only developer they're publishing.

 

[LWK]

I may not be buying anymore games from this company unless they address the whole KOF XII situation with a huge turnaround. At this point, its even beyond insulting.

It took you until now to realise that? wow.

 

[LWK]

You know damn well I knew about that prior to even saying that, what I said is true to this situation more though. They released some solid ps2 compiles and that is fact. This release though was a total fuck up, same with cardfighters. At least they addressed cardfighters.

 

[Lovergoat]

What's the logic behind all this talk of SNKP sucking balls and Ignition being the dogs bollocks? Has the world really turned on its head and publishers suddenly want longer development times and developers want to rush things out for a quick sale?

 

[Blue Steel]

Just had a match with hanafuda and it was good (at least for me). Hanafuda didn't have his headset on, so I'm curious to see what he thought.

 

[kernow]

SNKP has sucked balls since forever.

 

[Lovergoat]

Well yeah, I get that. But why does the sun shine out of Ignitions arse?

Just switched to a Slim and had yet to set up the headset. Sorted now.

Glad to hear it was good for you. It was pretty smooth for me but it felt like I was behind you all the time. Hard to explain. Didnt help that my random team gave me Mature. No idea what I am doing with her!

I never realised you could host a rank match and invite friends to it. Thought that was for player matches only.

Catch you again soon.
