Another Ratio match, I can’t tell at first glance if it’s related to the previous vid since I haven’t checked it up on nico and I am actually yet to see anything.

    I’ve heard this comment before actually, and I think a lot of people agree on having them there, but not so much on having them interfere. However I think getting the gameplay fixed first is more of a priority right now…

  2. TripleMMM says:

    Touche, Francois. But my focus was meant that I can actually see them standing near the fight like they used to from 94 to 98, rather than see them coming out of no where (or off camera) since 99. To me that made/helped KOF felt visually unique than the rest of fighting games (even if it’s just a little), atleast to my eyes…

    (Should I be asking this for the next on show?)

  3. That’s…. KOF 99

  4. TripleMMM says:

    Forgot to mention (albeit everybody else said this ages ago), after seeing the inactive teammates gazing the the fight on the sideline, made me wondered if SNK ever going to implement that again. And maybe instead of them jump in the fray just to break you from a grab/dizzy state, couldn’t they also jump in when the opponent reaches a certain amount of combos or something?

  5. …. You can tell that I am drunk judging by the previous comment, right?

  6. It’s the same concept of ratio as CvS 1, but instead of the game to force you a fixed ratio the ratios are a common ratio chart is created from strats and opinions of the community that plays the game

    ratio basically means each character is assigned a number. When u pik a team u can’t go over a certain total number. IOW u can’t pick a team full of top tiers since their combined numbers will be over the “ratio limit”.

    What’s this ‘Ratio’ thing you’re mentioning? I looked for more info at the boards to no avail. 🙁 I feel such a n00b.

    …Or maybe ON needs to give more data about ’98 FE. 0;)

  9. Gunsmith says:

    I think many people didn’t like team USA because simply because they weren’t shotokan characters i.e. didn’t know how to play with them.

  10. Personally down here EVERYONE loved the USA sports team back then in 94. It was the only team of big guys ready to break your bones with Heidern’s Team coming into a satisfying second place in that regard… So either everyone mained them or it was their “alter team”. When 98 came out they looked so stupidly awkward, but many people still played with them out of the still lasting love that the team had left from 94′.

    When I connected to the internet and realized that people hated them, I couldn’t believe my eyes. In fact from time to time we even argue within the closed circle on how is it possible to someone to dislike these guys.

  11. TripleMMM says:

    Love seeing Lucky getting some love, I can’t understand why his team is so hated, him especially!

  12. giga_d says:

    I love ratio matches. . . if only this could happen on 2k2um. Ain’t about Kasumi, Nameless and K on the same team 😀

  13. The Finals are uploaded in the forum.
