Holy shit!! Fulgore has definitely gotten some Predator moments with his attacks especially at between 0:56-1:01. Might gonna be my character to pick up on as my secondary main (right behind Chief Thunder).

And also I can't wait til King of Hill-esque mode comes out.
 
Here is the stream they did playing him yesterday.

Not so sure I like the idea of the Nuke meter for a few reasons:
1. Puts him at a immediate disadvantage
2. This type of meter becoming a gimmick in the future with other characters.
Obviously ill wait and see when he drops on the 9th.

aesthetically I like the look, I think his blades are a bit over exaggerated but not a big deal.

He's like Quan Chi in MK9. When he's meterless, he isn't that good. Not bad, just not that good. But once he gets meter he becomes a beast. No other character will have a meter like Fulgore's.
 
Man, this game is dying faster than I expected. Where's the hype?
I think the fact that so many folks keep losing all their progress is slowly killing the enthusiasm for this game. I bought an Xbox One and KI a few ago and it was great, up until I found out the game will randomly delete all your progress. It's very heartbreaking to lose all those hours spent unlocking stuff, leveling up, etc. Double Helix has known about this problem for a while, but have conveniently ignored it. They were even asked about it in Friday's Fulgore stream, but blew it off.

This is irrefutable proof that Nintendo KI is better than Microsoft KI.

Filthyrich answered this already in a thread on DH. You must go to the main ki screen before you exit the game or you might get the data loss glitch

That is still inexcusable! Devs who know about glitches like that and do nothing to fix it are no better than Jerry Sandusky working in a day care!

What he explained with the controller swapping between player 1 and player 2 didn't account for my situation. Many others have had several different experiences with this glitch. It doesn't just happen when switching controllers. In my case, the game crashed back to the Xbox One dashboard, and when I started the game back up, my progress was gone.

"Anytime you don't exit from the main menu" <- that's the glitch, even if you were on an online match and it froze on you, you may face data loss.

No, the glitch is that they programmed save management in their game extremely poor. Players should never have to use a workaround to enjoy their game, especially if the game crashes and you're not given a chance to use said workaround. A hotfix should've been released a long time ago when the problem was first identified. I have never seen or heard of a game reset progress at such an absurd level as Killer Instinct. You literally worry about playing for fear of it crashing and losing your progress. And the fact that this has been going on since launch is just ludicrous!

And Microsoft shares some of the blame in this debacle, as well. Giving players no way to manage save data on the Xbox One is ridiculous. If we could backup our saves or retrieve older saves from the cloud, the issue wouldn't be as dire as it is right now.

KI being released in lots of little pieces to meet launch date raised some red flags. The whole "release now, patch later" is annoying enough, but DH not owning up to the problem is not going to do them any favors.

I think with Fulgore, you have to be smart with your zoning since your projectile specials will drain some of its Nuke Meter (Fulgore's version of the Shadow Meter) and timing your nuke charging. Also, I'm a bit shocked that Spinal is the anti-Fulgore with his draining shield.
