KOF XIII: The Highs and Lows of Hyper-Drive mode

[dayside]

This game has the tempo of 98 and functionalities of 2002. both are my fav games. This game combined them XD

[thoroughbred765]

im a kof noob. so HD mode is like a mode where you can freely do moves without chain restrictions?

[WheelsNReels]

@thoroughbred765 HD mode allows for you to chain two specials together--if you cancel a special into another special, it takes a 1 stock of your HD meter (1 of 2) or 50%, since you need full HD meter to activate HD mode, which allows you to chain specials as long as you have meter. EX. King can Drive Cancel Tornado Kick from Trap Shoot twice without HD, but can "infinitely" do it with HD, hope that helps you out!

[newnemesis666]

i was waiting a theme better for KOF in this video :(

[Aerenaeomy]

Nice one ! But you forgot Leona's HD combo starting with low Bx2 !

[saddreamingninja]

Name of this song please any1??

[cmysharingan]

@saddreamingninja The song is Afterglow by Phaeleh ft Soundmouse (the girl singing is Soundmouse)

[saddreamingninja]

@cmysharingan o man haha thanx a lot ;)

[RiotEXE]

@saddreamingninja - he tells you at the end of the video...

[saddreamingninja]

@RiotEXE ooops ha i didnty watch it all ... damn i love KOF

[3arthquak3Slic3]

@Kazuia20 The balance isn't really that bad, Raiden and K' were just over powered as hell. They both got hella nerfed, though. After SF Bore, I'm just happy for a game that promotes rushing down over turtling. I haven't talked to anyone who actually played it who didn't have something good to say about it. I'm totally hype for it.

[3arthquak3Slic3]

@Kazuia20 It's supposed to play 2002 and, from what I've seen, it does.

[thepurplemasher]

@Kazuia20 KOF 13 is gonna be good as well

[3arthquak3Slic3]

This game is going to be so fuckin' sick.

[LuigiBoVerFinal]

If I only waited til the end I would have seen the song title -_- I feel dumb now

[LuigiBoVerFinal]

That song...I MUST HAVE IT!!! What is it?!?!?!?!

[JGBUSI81]

i am a street fighter player, but boy i must say i am drawn to kof now. whats the background song pleeaaasseeee.

[JGBUSI81]

@JGBUSI81 oopps my bad, song title and artist at the end of the video :p

[wuuspigs]

And listen to that nice song.This is going to be great

[XenogearGrahf]

excuse me for my ignorance but what is the difference between easy and hard low? anyway i love your vids!! always enjoying it!!

[thepurplemasher]

Nice video and Nice song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ABXYFightLeague]

So..King has a Venom Strike derived DM? Around @2:37. Madness! Loving her more and more the more I see from her. Still though. Where's the Joe love? lol Nah...fantastic video man! Can't wait to get my hands on this.

[Lioyd1rving]

@ABXYFightLeague Fun fact: the Double Strike was originally a super when it was introduced in Art of Fighting 2, but hadn't been one since.

[ABXYFightLeague]

@Lioyd1rving Ahhh...that is interesting. Thanks for the fun fact Lloyd.

[kyuubiflame]

@Lioyd1rving

fun fact SNK never made games with SUPERS XD

[Lioyd1rving]

@kyuubiflame The way you call super moves is irrelevant. Desperation moves involve low health.

[kyuubiflame]

@Lioyd1rving

DUDE YOU ARE A SNK NOOBLING

go look at the move list from AOF and FF and tell me if they where supers or DMs cause the last 15+ years SNK has been calling the moves that take off alot DMs(Desperation Moves)

and always has been

HDMs(hidden Desperation Moves)

SDMs (super Desperation Moves

DMs(Desperation moves)

and then they renamed hiddens to MAX2

just do your homework and it doesn't what amount of health you have it just depends on the command

1 button DM 2 buttons SDM

[Lioyd1rving]

@kyuubiflame And this is why everyone hates us SNK fans. Also, if you did know your shit, you'd also know that in AOF2, King's DESPERATION move is the Surprise Rose. The Double Strike is her Hissatsuwaza and doesn't demand low health.

[kyuubiflame]

@Lioyd1rving

yep specially the crapcom guys since they since their story doesn't go anywhere LOL

i'll miss illusion dance.....it's so perfect for C.Cing and king is back to her OLD/Original self her clothes rip off just like in AOF XD

i think this is SNKs best work of all time .....been playing since KOF 99 in 00 and never went back to SF ever

[thepurplemasher]

@kyuubiflame I've been liking KOF ever since I played "my" first kof 00/01.

[kyuubiflame]

@thepurplemasher

good i remember the actual first time i touched KOF....it was 97 LOL didn't even know WTF i was playing but i rememebr i picked terry,ryo and ralf LOL FUCK YEA and then when i played 99 i rememeber and that's when i said fuck you crapcom you hold no challenge in fighting games now

[thepurplemasher]

@kyuubiflame Hahaha lol yep.

[ZeroLovesDnb]

Great work DDTC. What's the name of the tack playing over the video?

[Cavintine]

Epic music syncing combos at 1:20 and 2:57

[Spacirelei]

@Cavintine Agreed. Thumbs up to anyone else who can hear a good overlap of gameplay versus music.

[santiagokof]

find this difficult to masturbate

[Mokilok9]

This song is horrible

[xxraiza]

excelleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeent dude, im looking for ash´s tuto

[Winterfang]

Those videos are so sexy I want to stick my penis inside them.

[kyuubiflame]

how do people not not how to play KOF....oh yea they whored out SF for years and didn't even bother till now

[BlackChronosXIII]

@kyuubiflame hey easy wins for us right

[kyuubiflame]

@BlackChronosXIII

most def...i've been getting use to the speed playing on my laptop and i love the new Kensou and yuri :D so they are soo much better now .....it's like playing 98 in HD LOL

[Akumashadow]

Its awesome that upon activation the character dashes close to the opponent to continue punishing the opponent.....KOF XIII is all about extreme offense!!!...

[degeneratesharingan2]

What is the name of the fucking song playing

[abadlime17]

Song name is at the end of the video for those who keep asking.

[Dathen40]

What is the name of the fucking song playing? I have to find it now or I swear I'll break the replay button just to hear it again.

[mstar1]

cool thx for the upload.

Why is the song so godlike though. i wanna watch the vid again with some cognac lol

[zabelzardok]

Song name?

[initialdody]

Question : Any fundamental differences between HD and KOF 2K2 MAX Mode???

[crossedge]

@initialdody HD is easier than 2k2 MAX mode, particularly because when you activate HD, it can do either one of the following:

1. If activated early, the character will autodash

2. If activated late, the character will do a standing C

In 2k2, you have to manually dash in to get the full potential of a MAX combo. Another difference is that in 2k2, you need 2 power stocks to activate MAX mode off a normal (dunno if it's the same in 2k2 UM). HD just requires a full drive.

[Yojimbo19]

@crossedge Truth

[kyuubiflame]

@crossedge agreed the CC combos in 2k2 where retarded to pull off and not cool in a combo at all

[Paur]

@crossedge "2. If activated late, the character will do a standing C"

WAT? WOW, thx for this, I had no idea. I thought my controller was being glitchy or something.

*thumbs up*

[crossedge]

@initialdody Another is that in MAX Mode (at least in original 2k2), the meter is used up if you attempt to cancel a normal that is not normally cancelable. In HD, all normals and command normals are cancelable.

For example, Kyo's 2nd hit in df+D is not normally cancelable. In 2k2, some of the MAX meter is used if you attempt to follow it up with, say, qcf+K. In HD mode, you can cancel it without losing drive meter apart from the usual time limit.

[chipp06]

thanks for the useful vids :D

[To2Dark]

ITCHNNi FUCKIN ITSAAAS 1:00

[Koho7]

@To2Dark

Err it's Ichi-geki Hissatsu (Which roughly translates to Single Deadly Strike/Attack)

[MythKiller77]

Brilliant, thanks for this!
