Hope the next KoF MI game is not dead

[Jivatma]

I hope SNK announces the next King of Fighters Maximum impact 3 for ps3.

I love the XII how it looks and plays, dont get me wrong, but the 3D series gave me so much freedom, so much super moves, combos, etc that had hardly any limits.

To be honest we still play KoF MI regulation A ( import ), on the ps3, more than SF 4.

My three main characters...had 6..were Hyena, Terry Bogard, Nightmare Geese.

What's are ya thoughts?

What's are ya thoughts?

Honestly? I hope it stays down. It was a novel idea to try pushing it into 3D and kind of fun to play against others, but the execution was a bit harsh. My gripes on it are mostly from a graphical standpoint though:

- The flashes from every single little thing were distracting. Trying to find a good place to toss in a move that would connect was a bit of a pain when all I could see was glitter and lens flare.

- The renders were pretty, yes. The breast physics had me in a mix of holding my chest in pain and laughing so hard, I fell out of my chair.

- The costumes. Oh god, please.. the vast majority of them did not fit the characters in their personalities, backstories or looks. I've seen about half of them cosplayed too... please, no more.

There's a few other things to it as well, but those are the big 3 offenders. I'll edit this later when I have a bit more time.

The MI games were never good to begin with. Too much stupid infinites/juggles and fighting game physics.

Maximum Impact wasn't too bad. It felt like a mediocre version of Rival Schools but that's still good. What I didn't like was Maximum Impact stealing KoF's yearly title. I can see why they they went with numbers for KoF XI and XII but I didn't like Maximum Impact 2 suddenly becoming KoF 2006.

It was a decent concept (better than any of Mortal Kombat's 3D games), but probably not deserving of a sequel (especially with all the press that KOF XII has been getting lately). The exclusive characters were lame (especially Mignon), the physics were off (especially the slowdown and recovery time associated with being hit by a sweep kick), and the numerous costumes felt like a cheap gimmick (some worked, but most of them looked like they were painted on). I wouldn't rule out a sequel, but SNKP has its' hands full with KOF XII (as well as an almost-assured sequel and a host of dating sims), so I think the Maximum Impact series should be classified as "comatose" (much like the "Mark Of The Wolves" sequel that never came out).

(That says there's a KOFMI 2.5 for the xbox in progress)

Do you guys think that's true? :confused: Does Ignition know something about that?


And more on topic, I really think they should make the last chapter of the Kof MI series to finish the storyplot and then:

a) Either to finish the series for good.

or

b) Change the name to MAXIMUM IMPACT -without naming/putting KOF- you know, to separate it from the KOF universe for good, making more freakish characters, and putting less kof characters, 8or a couple of KOF characters, a couple of AoF characters, a cople of FF characters, as extrass or non important to the plot) and tons off-the-wall-Falcoon-style-characters. And giving it a new gameplay -improved, of course- wouldn't hurt.

Because if you ask me, MI series appeals to another kind of players, wich is good, I mean it also makes SNK-P make money, right? :confused:

For me my main three were Alba Soiree and Duke sometimes I replace Soiree with Richard ^^ but yeah im wondering whatever happened to KOFMIRA2. They even had posters up for it and everything.

Methinks it'd be Reg A.

[Mark_Of_The_Wolves_Terry2]

i like Maximum Impact,but i've always peferred my KOF in 2-D.MI has good graphics but some of the characters are not por-portioned right,most of the new characters are lame(with a few exceptions).and some of the alternate costumes are just plain weird.:confused: i just feel like MI style of gameplay dosen't mesh to well with KOF.i always felt alittle weird playing KOF like i would Virtua Fighter,i know the characters still have there 2-D moves,but it's just not the same with the Virtua Fighter moves included.and im sorry,but im just not a big fan of FALCOON's designs,SHINKIRO will ALWAYS be my favirote artist and SNK artist of all time then HIROAKI after Shinkiro then NONA.:D

[Alba Meira]

Should be RA2 but who knows we havent heard light nor day or that project.

I'm with the a) or: change the graphics to make them look like Hiroaki sama drawned the characters in game!

[Alba Meira]

They just announced this for the PS2 as KOF MI RA2. (As usual it's to be announced but at least there doing something with this)

[Andrea]

I think it might be MI reg A with story mode incluiding endings for B.jenet Ninon Kim XiaoLon and every character that didn't had an ending. sweet.

[LeonaHeidernUser]

I think they shouldn't make this game and make a MI3 or even better: a MOTW 2 or a Last Blade 3

[UltimateRugal999]

I think they shouldn't make this game and make a MI3 or even better: a MOTW 2 or a Last Blade 3

If those 2 come out I'd be the first in line.

[cHuCo]

wow a MOTW 2 sounds nice

:confused::confused:does ignition know anything about this?:confused::confused:

I'd want a KOF armagedon for arcade and PS3 with every KOF character... With every character having new clothes just for the game

And in wich in arcade you could choose with a button the normal outfit, with b the normal outfit with another color, with c button the alternative outfit and with d button the alternative clothes with another color.

And for console the same, but with a beach mode unlockable in wich every character fights in swimsuits .

with their original outfit as console bonus (by pressing start button), ex;: Kyo in 94' outfit, just like Mai, Terry, Athena, etc, Iori in his 95' outfit and so on,

and as a download content in wich you can pay for, the other outfits, like in example for Athena all of her outfits from 95' to XII, and her MI2 outfit, for Kyo his nests outfit and his Ash tales outfit and his MI2 outfit for sale and so on,

and as unlockable content as well extra stuff, like a guitar for Iori, sunglasses for K', tattoos for some character

and color edit mode and stuff,

me thinks something like that would sell ·.·
