Killer Instinct announced for XBOX ONE!!!!!

Yoooooooooooooooo! That s#%t was off the hook!!!!

It's a shame that such an awesome game is getting weighed down by Mircosoft BS. It would be a crime against the FGC if this game stays an Xbone exclusive.

What's wrong with Orchid's design,Eclipso? I think she looks gorgeous.

I don't actually mind her look (sans the goggles on her head, horrible excuse for a customization item) but its not very "secret agent". Not that two skin tight outfits were very "secret agent" but they had an opportunity to do so.

I watched the hour long stream, Sadira looks good.
 
Sadira looks pretty badass. I like her spider theme. but I kind of wish that developers would stop sexing up all of their female characters. With some characters would it make sense. Like Christy from DOA. She's a stripper. haha. Orchid looks okay
 
Because of this game I am really considering on getting an Xbone. Sadira looks awesome. If I do get this game I might main her and Jago.
 
Pre-judging mains is kind of dumb in my opinion. Like... I plan on using Glacius. But I may or may not like him enough to main. I always see people claiming mains but they usually don't follow through with it.

I think DH is staying true to the source material as a way to avoid pissing people off.

Jago looks to be the strongest character so far. He has good zoning, nice range on his normals, solid mixups, and a badarse uppercut special.
 
Yeah, Maybe TOO MUCH mobility. Might be Batman J2 all over again. But we'll see.

I agree, they are adding in a totally new element to KI with her, its either going to mesh well and lay the foundation for KI4 (assuming good sales and good gameplay) or she could be broken and not work in the system.

Lol, the first thing I thought about when I saw this chick was Batman. Her cross up potential is scary.

According to the developers, she's weak on the ground so she needs to be in the air to do any real damage.
 
Does anyone know any example of an input string for combos? I was wondering how difficult it would be to execute them. Hopefully it's somewhere around the same as Injustice. As long as it's not like Street Fighter then I'd be happy.
 
KI combos are very easy to do. Nowhere near SF links.
The difficult part is varying them to make sure they don't get broken. So in addition to having to know how to open up your opponent, you also need to know multiple bnbs to keep them from C-C-C-C-COMBO BREAKing your shit.

And with the new one adding Counter Breakers, you also need to know the best gaps in your bnbs to throw out a counter.
 
So probably on the same difficulty level to execute as Injustice or MK, but you need a lot more knowledge with various combos as well as the opponents so you know when you can break and such. That sounds good to me. I have experience with that in the DOA games, since most of my game plan was countering with holds. I was fcking pro at it in DOA4. haha
 
Yeah, a lot like DoA. With Counter Breakers being like throwing someone's Hold attempt.



Really in depth video about the gameplay




I'm actually going to buy an X1 before a PS4. Only because there's nothing that interests me for Sony's launch, but I know it'll be my main console.
 
Sadly, this the only next-gen game that has piqued my interest. However, one game isn't enough to buy an X1, let alone close to launch. With their whole free-to-pay...ergh play... business model, I might as well wait until the game is close to its final form.
