I agree it would be cool to see what Countries are top on the leader-boards. I just checked on Xbox and the number 1 player is from Mexico. I actually played this guy not too long ago he bodied me . We had a 3 bar connection that actually felt like a 3 bar so that was good.

OT: I hope that SNK actually does something to improve the netcode and it isn't just a fix on the connection evaluation deal.

Goddamn it Atlus\SNKP.. We have waited almost 3 long years to play this game, and still we CAN NOT.. Can't you at least give us a release date? we are SO tired of waiting... It's seems everything about this game needs waiting!

Same. a release date would be ideal plus the patch is needed.

[Strifesterz0r]

The game is really unplayable for me and like 85-90% of the costumers, if not more..
Come on, they would have remade FF7 in less time! (kof13 time + waiting for patch and prolly waiting for another patch since this patch will only fix 5%.)

Remember! The XII got netcode patch too. After teh patch i did not see any difference. I had the 1600 online match. It was a pain in the ass. NOT AGAIN PLEASE SNKP!!!!!

I know i dont have super internet connection, but every ps3 online game is very playable except XII and XIII

Considering the time they have spent on porting the game, I doubt they will be able to come up with a better online play. Not so soon anyway. I wouldn't have my hopes up.

[Fight_Fan]

Well, that answered my question... No update yet... I'll check back... Whenever i check back...

[Hideki-Motosuwa]

The fact that you guys are trying to rush them to put this patch out is hilarious. I would rather them take their time and get this thing done right with no problems rather than rush it out at the demand of the community and have it fail yet again like with KOFXII.

So off hand, be patient and stop hounding them to get the thing done. Spend your time on practice mode and such to get ready when the online patch comes.......at least that way you're doing something productive with your time in KOF rather than waiting and whining about it only to find your game is scrubby when you get online.

[djsiegfried]

we are waiting...

[Strifesterz0r]

Call us anything but you can't say we are not patient.
And how are we rushing the patch? they already took a lot of time.

Hey, voice of reason.

I did all that during 12... What did it get me? Though im sure you werent directing your statement at me, since im not rushing anybody. I just simply check in to see for updates.

As far as im concerned, this was a 12 issue, carried over to 13... If they didnt fix it in that time frame, they wont fix it at all. Thats my honest opinion...

Too many fighting games out there right now, to get all beat up over this one having bad netcode. As is, they are the under dog trying to get a following...

Atlus announced the upcoming patch on the 19th of December, literally right before the holidays, which only really ended last week. Are you contending that SNKP and Atlus should be able to develop, test, submit and have Sony and Microsoft both sign off on an update within the space of less than two weeks? Especially considering that most of the staff at all of those companies might well have been out of the office?

I'm not an apologist for the netcode but get some perspective, for crying out loud.

[Reiki.Kito]

Sooo...When exactly at 1/10 will we be able to purchase said DLC?

[thiefofhearts82]

Stressing and bitching about it wont get it here any faster... No point in the anxiety.. I have faith in the fact its certainly coming and i have high hopes... Or maybe my judgement is clouded by how much i adore this game....

[JAVH]

Netcode was developed mainly for asians connections, people living in China also says KOF XII works very well. SNKP could do a very good netcode, but its necesary developers travel to occident for work in these connections.

[Reiki.Kito]

Speaking of good news: The DLC came a full two hours before expected and life is good! Hoping to see these guys hit center stage in some tournaments.

Another note: At the rate they're going with DLC, I expect there will be more coming. Can't imagine them blowing their whole content in two months for a quick turn on the profits. Might be something to talk about on top of a netcode patch? Other than that, I don't think the netcode has immensely impacted the push its having in the FGC. For one, it's at EVO. Two, it's almost always got a spot on alot of popular streams (Some not so popular ones ONLY run KOF XIII footage), and a lot of people are getting knee deep in the game.

Whichever way you slice it, it's making good traction even though the netcode's not even close to as good as was promised. Just food for thought.

[Knorkx]

Just bought it finally. I am surprised to see that there does not seem to be any option to play king of fighters in a 1 vs 1 match (single match) online? Is this correct? Will it be corrected, too in the patch?

[djsiegfried]

1vs1 is not KOF style, i think...

[Knorkx]

I know it isnt the "KOF Style" but it was always a regular option, also in the older KOF Arcade games (see ggpo / kaillera and such).

[Zerrminator]

It probably has more to do with focusing the community on embracing the 3on3 team style of KOF gameplay that's been around since 94 and keeping leaderboard rankings straight forward.

[Strifesterz0r]

I am all in for 1 vs 1 online!
