Loona said, April 30, 2010, 07:36:38 pmI'm not sure if K's flames can be taken by Ash so Kyo would keep his, but him being in the game at least hasn't shot down that possibility completely, we'll see...There's still Kusanagi running around, IIRC. If Ash is gonna get all three of the powers, he could just steal his.Also I honestly don't get what's with all the Maxima hate.

SO I HERD U LIEK TROPEZ? ...'k, sorry, couldn't resist that one.But yeah, I have to agree here--Maxima's been K''s partner for, like, ever. If SNK's going to do a more-or-less "classic" lineup for most of the teams, it's appropriate that at least Maxy teams up with K' again. Really don't see the reason for the hate.Plus, he's got a f___ing cannon in his chest. Isn't that cool? ???

Did I miss something?Masculine adult males are usually unpopular in fighting games for some reason.The fact that Maxima is much harder to use than K', Kula and Whip is possibly another factor.
Beatrice said, April 30, 2010, 07:52:34 pmThere's still Saisyu who is 10 times more awesome than Kyo. oyaji team in KOFXIV callin it now
But of course. Especially considering XIV is inevitably gonna be a dream match. Which should actually quell the complaints of many people as THIS is where they'll see their favorite characters converted.Even...Rugal...

But I don't mind him being in the game. Hell I didn't like a lot of characters in the game right now, until I saw them in action. Now I'm all on board. I hope Kula is edited enough to play a bit less like K'. She needs more supers.

As long as SNK at least paves the way for the characters that I am comfortable with, I personally couldn't care less. That being said, I'm against Maxima for the most part because I find his design uninspired and rather incongruous in comparison to the rest of the KoF cast.
Maxima is from one of SNK's official games rather than being made up. Well, that and Daraku Tenshi. But he's still based on SOMETHING. He has a decent amount of story behind him, it's not just tagging along after K' like shen tags after ash. He has his own background as to why he is involved.None of his moves are contrived (except the 2k2UM HSDM, that thing is awful) and his moveset holds together as someone who just overpowers you. Unlike Shen as well, despite being a powerhouse he hasn't attempted to take that particular spotlight away from Ralf and holds his own by mixing up the grappling and heavy hits.I am interested in how he will look in XIII style, they made an awesome job with K', perhaps the whole outfit will change a bit.
Maxima isn't fully inculpable in comparison to Ralf, though. Ralf himself isn't particularly 100% pugilism(he has some grapples and general heavy hits/counters/etc, although part of that may be courtesy of Clark)
K' has returned...So either the final characters were Kula, Adel or Maxima. Either 3 of them is fine with me.
