It is cool that they finally put Aris in a Soul Calibur game though.

There was a popular GD-ROM for Dreamcast that had CvS2, 3S and MvC2 all on it. I think it was called TDO2?

The best thing about doing this was that Capcom and SNK's and FIRE PRO WRESTLING's (and several other but not all Dreamcast games) had ADX files as their music tracks so it was relatively easy to customize their soundtracks.

UNIST is fun. Whip Girl is cool. That's all, really.

Apparently there's more than two people interested in playing it in my local scene so maybe we can make it a staple at the meetups.

After making a drunk purchase during Evo of a Terry Bogard hat I finally loaded up KOF13 on Steam. After DBFZ and T7 this feels uhh really hard to play and for fuckin around I think I'll hop back to Tekken. Looks real cool though after not playing a FF since SNES! And retroactive mad props to the tourney players for being crazy good.

i would like terry to be in tekken, i guess with geese already in tekken its unlikely they will double dip into snk for more guest characters at least he is coming to fexl i suppose.

22 characters in that list. There should be at least one more to reveal, two if Tira's space only appears after download (and assuming Inferno's space doesn't appear after unlock). I do remember early on hearing a rumor about Maxi having a boyfriend, which tracks with him having a "sword brother" on his pirate crew before Astaroth killed them.

Cervantes is 100% in because when they were previewing the Create-A-Soul feature they showed off a custom character with his moveset, which would be really weird otherwise.

I guess keeping the ability to doll up the base characters is good but no prepackaged alternates does suck, but that seems to be the trend nowadays. I just hope there isnt paid dlc for more pretty princess dress up items because I will angrily buy it.

This is an old post, but the first season pass is Tira, three other characters, and two customization gear sets. They're still nailing down what the other three characters are gonna be, but they're open to another guest.

Also, you can share your created characters, so I'm looking forward to Create a Soul side events.

Yeeeeaaahhh.... You'll be pretty hard-pressed to find players just starting out in that game too. There are a couple though.

The game is kind of hard compared to other KoFs, but if you're used to other KoFs you can kind of get away with playing it like you play older ones, it just doesn't work as well. If you do stick with it, I recommend learning a couple of combos per character: meterless BnB, preferably from a low light, meterless punish combo, good damage combo for 1 or 2 bars, and a useful drive cancel. After learning those basics you can kind of freestyle with the combos and see where EX moves fit and where they don't, but there's a lot more to the combo system than in most fighting games. Don't even bother touching HD combos at first.

As for execution, if you've never played a KoF it's pretty difficult. Know that most combos don't require timing with any degree of proficiency and all of the difficulty stems from complex motions done relatively quickly. There are exceptions to this, but the vast majority don't need timing. You can hold the punch or kick button at the end of the motion to have the special move you're trying to do come out on the first possible frame; this so-called "button-hold trick" is tremendously useful during combos. So for Kyo's BnB, for example, you can do cr.B, cr.A, df+D cancelled into qcf+D, which has to be done really quickly from df+D, and then you do his run grab (hcb+K). There's no timing required for the run grab. As you're finishing up the qcf+D upkicks, just do hcb+K and hold the kick button, and it'll come out when it can, within reason. You can't do it IMMEDIATELY, but it gives you a ton of leeway on the combo.

Or, barring that, play Shen and don't worry about hard combos for damage. As HoboWithAShotgun told me when I was getting into the game, BIG MAN PUNCHES. BIG MAN DAMAGE.

Let me know if you want to actually learn a bit about the game though. The difficulty of the game has become a bit overblown over the years, but it is still pretty difficult. It was my first fighting game that I learned, alongside SFIV, so you can go from complete beginner to not terrible with it. It just takes a lot of effort.

str8 mercin burgers my nigga
a lot of ppl keep saying that if the moves and stuff are in the create a fighter option they would be in the game but SC is infamous for putting things in from fighters that arnt actually in the game and letting you make something close to the real thing.

Maybe. Algol's wasn't and he looks like he fills the same role as Evil Wizard Fighting Game Final Boss. You'll probably still be able to play pretty princess with him, just not make him into the other races.
