The Killer Instinct Thread


Recommended Posts

Technically the KI2013/KI3 thread but if someone wants to come in here and wax nostalgic about KI Gold, I'm not gonna stop 'em. Odds are I'll probably join in.

 

Figured I could make a thread even if it seems like it is myself and @FlyingVeplaying for now. Theoretically we can stop shitting up the SFV thread with posts about KI, though we all know that isn't going to happen. 

 

Anyone with a passing interest or who wants to try something new: join in!

 

KI2013 has:

 

  • A huge roster with lots of playstyle variance
  • A siiiiiiick soundtrack - all the stage music is bangin
  • A F2P client on Windows/Xbox, and a less-than-full-price Steam version that comes with everything, so its a cheap (to no) buy in
  • Low system requirements - if your rig can run SFV it can definitely handle this game
  • Cross play between all versions in lobbies so we can all punch each other
  • Excellent rollback netcode so we can all punch each other with confidence that the punches will come out
  • A phenomenal resource in http://ki.infil.net/ - gaze upon it and realize how good a FG resource site can be
  • Lightning fast rematches - no waiting for the next battleattleattttle.....here

 

I've been away from the game long enough that I'm effectively fresh meat, and while Ve seems like a shark in this game he's still winding up. So we can enjoy all kind of learning a game together and mashing buttons. Or one of you who is a secret grandmaster at this game can tear through us like a chainsaw through a kindergarten. The matches are fast enough that it doesn't matter!

 

The important thing is that we all play together. And that at least one of us plays Rash so they can loop his taunts once a session.

That Blasted Salami has started a serise looking at each character.  They're writtern by Infil and Lemon, short and very useful.  

 

 

I played KI for a bit when it was announced for EVO online and there were more people playing at a lower level.  Once you get your head around the combo system and the possibilities that come from that, both for offence and defence it's a really fun game.  I'd be happy have some games but I'm guessing you guys are in America?  I'm in the UK, so times and connections will probably be a bit iffy.

This game should have been crap, I mean KI1 & 2, despite being fun are not very good games. However, not only is is good, but it’s one of the best fighting games of the last 10 years.

 

On that not anyone up for games tonight? @GetTheTables @Vhozite or whoever else has the game that I didn’t tag?
