Seems its back to 3-on-3 again. Also Mature and Vice are back in it and looks like Kim has a new stance. It also seems regular teams(Japan, FF, AOF, Kim, etc) might stay the same. And the NFT team is back also.

if you look closely and the competitor select screen, you can also see that New Face team is in the game as well.

Behind Kim team.

It appears that you can also select what teams you fight or something, according to that screen.

Also, from the fuzzy blown up picture, Kim's stance looks a bit more relaxed, almost like Dong Hwan's :S

Looks nifty, I love Vice and Mature, and am glad to see them return.

I wonder, does 3-on-3 mean no strikers? Or will it be selectable, like 2K1? Either way, it's good stuff - I look forward to the Eolith-haters trying to get out of this one.

Vice? Mature? The NFT? 3 on 3? This means either Eolith finally went ahead and ditched some of the old un-favorites, or they got rid pretty much everyone new since 99, or they were lying about the cast count. In any event, I'm pretty exciting.

I don't care about Lucky or Brian, but D isn't gettin in without the other two, so whatever. I agree that Lucky is cheap...at least Brian's moves lag and his speed sucks.

I don't know how Heavy D is cheap considering people can duck out of his superpunch DM.

I've seen a fair few 'character rosters' for 2K2 before, so have become kind of skeptical, however I will say I hope that one is true, as I'm liking it lots.

Plenty of classic characters (Geese!), plus the best of the new bunch - Angel, Seth, Vanessa - and no fucking Lin.

I won't exactly be mourning for May Lee, Bao or Hinako either.

It's cool having Leona as a single character, that goes well with her personality.

Ultima
23rd August 2002, 06:45 AM
I like this lineup too. No Rugal, unfortunately, but I guess I can swap in the awesome Geese in for my boss fetish. Geese is likely to be a much better character as well. Eiji would probably be really cool too (never played him in 95, but that's because I barely played 95)

No Bao, Lin or Hinako? Yamazaki and Billy are back? Sweet. Too bad Maxima, Ramon and K9996241854 are still there, but oh well. I know Racewing will be weeping for the loss of May Lee, but he'll get no pity from me. That boy has problems. :wink I'll miss Xiang-fei, but admittedly she kinda sucked. And I'm estatic that there's no Kasumi. May she rot in hell. Her dad is now officially cooler than her.

ANyway, I'm hoping this is the real line-up. I have my doubts though.

dj_panda
23rd August 2002, 07:08 AM
The 96 team should just the Yagami team and have the boss team as the 96 team.

I guessed they just tossed May Lee and Foxy out the window because they were so game breaking.

Mebbe Rugal as the boss.

Anyway, I guess it's a pretty good cast. hope it's real.

VoidStar
23rd August 2002, 07:10 AM
I'm somewhat skeptical too. Orochi as a normally selectable character? As a replacement for Yashiro? The Hell? Although it could be that's a single mistake.

Anyway, I like it overall myself. A lot of the newer characters I like are returning (although I'll mourn the loss of Hinako and May Lee, dammit, if no one else will), and YAMAZAKI AND BILLY ARE BACK. Yase! :supergrin

(Yeah, even though I like Bao, I'm not attached enough to mourn...)

Internet
23rd August 2002, 09:15 AM
No Jhun either.

Another good character that just fell by the wayside.

Also, anyone who thinks Heavy D is an out of shape, overweight washed up Mr T lookalike, it's cool that you think that way, but it's funny that you missed out on the character with one of the most inovative playstyles in the game.

I loved his shadow combination, which allowed him to have Super-versions of all of his normal attacks. It fucking owned, I would at least have liked to see a character with an equivalent of that.


I'm glad Vice is back though, anyone who's seen me play her knows that she is way over the top in terms of making the game not-fun for her opponents :B Hope they didn't change her :D

I'm glad to see Vice back ... but unlike Internet I do hope they change her, reason being I don't want to play '98 Vice, because I can do that in KOF'98. Maybe not a complete overhaul like Ralf and Heidern got in 2K1, but still a new move/DM or two. And sexy win poses.

Dammit, now I need to go back and play '98 some more. I always suspected from watching people use him that Heavy D was an interesting character to play as (way more so than his teammates). :| I always conveniently forgot to try him, though, when I was actually playing the game.

Maybe Eolith could have shuffled the teams around a little more if they had the courage to get rid of an ultra-popular character like fucking Ramon. Fuck, I'd rather have a team made up of Bao, Riot of the Blood Bao, and Noob Saibao than see Ramon in another game.

Since Iori booted Ramon off his team at the end of 2k1, I thought -- hoped -- that the bouncing green midget was gone forever and Team Yagami would be Iori/Seth/Vanessa.

They could have teamed up Mature and Vice with Foxy for a "Dead Women's Team" instead. :p

Actually, yeah, this crossed my mind too. The Rugal-as-boss, the Shingo-as-secret challenger, EX versions .... a little too close for my liking.

I guess they just knew '98 was popular and tried to stick by it.

Frietstof
24th August 2002, 04:55 PM
Yes, but surely THEY (ugh) could have thought of something closer to the whole NESTS chapter? A toned down Krizalid, Zero, Ignis team would have been nice (think kof 96 Geese, Kraus, Big), and that mysterious lady and Long as final bosses. I love Billy and Yamazaki and the whole new face team, but what are they doing in the game when Jhun, Bao, Foxy etc. have about 20.000 more reasons to be there in the first place?

I'm with Friet, this looks just like Kof98 with the 96' boss team instead of the sports team. Oh, and custom combos. . . yay. Well, i guess it's every anti99-2k1 kof'ers dream I guess.

I guess this means Jhun is never coming back and Chang / Choi will never die. . . damn.

Heh, actually, I am indifferent towards Takuma, and ironically, it was that move that seemed so cool to me. Seems like it has its applications, and since they are changing his personality to a close quarters Karate-ka like they did to Ryo, it seems fitting.

Panther or OT or one of those did a 2K2 FAQ, we bashed em for it (well, we all know how it goes). The game isn't out yet - hell we just learned that it's 95 style Kyo, not the old one. Don't waste time making an FAQ for a game which isn't out yet and doesn't have all the details revealed. While Gunsmith and KMegura are two big contributors to King of Fighters on the internet, it's absolutely pointless to bother with a 2K2 FAQ now.

But onto other matters - now I'm not trying to sound like a faggot (much) - but when do you guys reckon this will be emulated? I mean, presuming the encryption is the same as 2K1, and thus a non-factor - what sort of time frame are we looking at?

Well, if all goes well, we'll be looking at a KoF 2001 scenario where it was dumped and released on the net right after it was released on home console (MVS).

If all goes gay, we'll be looking at a RotD scenario where it was dumped right after it was released on home console (MVS), but is being hoarded by gay singaporean dumpers and hasn't been released yet.

You can bet that if the same group who dumped KoF 2000 (Neo-0), dumps KoF 2002, it'll be released immediately, but they take a while longer than the Asian dumpers.

Also, I was thinking more along the lines of "developed on current hardware + released on popular consoles + ad campaign so people know it's out there"

But here's a horrible thought: What if they developed on current hardware, but neglected to do anything else sane, like marketing it, or releasing home ports? Then we couldn't even emulate it. x_x yeeaaaarch.

I hope this game will usher in a new golden age of Angel hentai...my meager collection is "used up."

In other news: There are now THREE 2K2 FAQs at Gamefaqs. (http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/neogeo/game/33590.html)

Cherrn: Yeah, but there was some sort of weird quibble regarding the pose... Darky (olol) was one of the few who chose the "totally ludicrous" side of the argument.

In any case, yay pointless trivia.

what? Someone chose her alternate colours, so in Orochi mode, her skin turns blue ( :|, I know). The only thing that resembles skin colour now is her outfit, therefore making you believe she was fighting in her bare buttocks :D
