Finally got a chance to play the game. Went over a bunch of topics that I wanted to touch on.

Whoa, you have an account! I actually just started watching videos from your channel. ^^
Thanks for the videos from the streams!
Ya, had it for 2 months but I'm not a forum person like I used to be 7 years ago.

Good videos man, it's always nice to get different perspectives on it. Pretty cool how you were teaching people too, GET THEM HYPED!
Were you at the Toronto Best Buy by any chance?
Thursday sure can't come soon enough.Ready to see some Orchid action.
I am still more curious about Shadow Jago , people say its just skin but from what they have been saying , it is like extra character.
I wonder if that means that it is like a Shoto in street fighter and will be more broken than the real Jago with like teleport , air fireball etc.

Cool videos, man. I also could not do the quarter circle moves on the dpad when I played it, I had to use the sticks for that. I wonder if that's just a bug or unfinished driver/software, it seems to not register the angled inputs.

Yes, i'm soo excited for Orchid! I want to know how she'll play already! Then the classic costumes and tease of the 7th character!
Also, I wouldn't mind Shadow Jago being an equivalent to Evil Ryu. It'd be another character to play. XP
I am sure they will, maybe Max or Filthie can chime in?.
Just to note - the sticks are totally fine and because they are a bit looser, you don't accidentily jump all the time like with the 360 pad.

You HAVE to make one with a particle blast!
And maybe one with Chief Thunder leaving behind a pile of victims.

I thought it did. When I played it at an event I think I was switching between d-pad and sticks. But then again I'm not a massive fighting game player and it might be why I lost all the games I played with the standard Xbox One controller
Another question around the arcade stick and a KI nub:
As a newcomer to the KI series (and fighters in general I suppose), would it be beneficial to start playing with a controller to get the hang of things, or will it be immediately better if I just start learning the game/mechanics/moves/combos using a stick right off the bat?

They haven't given much detail on the game, period! Can't wait for my day one 12 month Xbox LIVE code, which comes with a Shadow Jago skin, then to see that 'exclusive' offer included in the season pass too.
But no, no download size released. Really wish they'd start announcing stuff for first-party titles.

Wait, I think its says 4GB is needed for KI on the 12 months of XBox live gold thing
KI is the one game where they released a ton of info already. Everything what's in there is pretty much known.
Checked MS Store, EB Games and other local retailers. None of 'em make mention of what is needed.
I should not of posted something half-assed. What I meant was what they are doing with it. There's a few editions, some season pass thing with a second season pass confirmed (?) and what it says on the day one 12 month code.
Still have no clue whatsoever as to what Killer Instinct: Round One is. If it's the F2P version which can be downloaded from Xbox LIVE, well they could of simply said that rather than advertise it as some exclusive.
I'm just really confused with what they're doing with this game right now.
that is the stream lol
2 hours of orchid, costume accessories, dojo etc
hoping the skins show up

Good video. I agree with pretty much everything he said. I would be really surprised if DH actually keep Orchid turning into the fire cat, I think it's more likely she'll be able to summon it to attack independently. Video also reminded me how badly DH screwed up Glacius
but at least there are classic costume options.Thomasorus

Thanks to Microsoft France, we have KI in Paris Games Week. Except it's an old build without Sadira, and that the official madcatz sticks are not working with the Xbox One because the consoles were not updated.
Had to play with a pad, enjoyed it, but seriously... Ok it's not Titanfall or Ryse, but a bit of serious would have been appreciated.

I think we will be in for a fan boy freak out if she doesn't morph into a cat
just like me if fulgore doesn't have an almost identical moveset to KI1 (ok I really just want his charge dash... Sogood)
Sticks are expensive and the first one you buy is always a gamble so starting out with the controller is probably the safer bet.
However, I think building skill and muscle memory is a bit easier/faster with a stick. The inputs are just naturally more precise and predictable, especially when you're just starting out.
It's more fun as well which helped me endure some of the early frustration that came with jumping into online matches with no skill whatsoever.
The experience is different enough that it's entirely possible to hate the entire genre when played with a controller and absolutely love it when played with an arcade stick. That's pretty much exactly what happened in my case.
Thanks - this is exactly the reason I'm thinking of getting the KI stick on launch day. I've played lots of fighting games in the past but have never ever bothered to learn moves or combos and I think the controller barrier is possibly the reason why.

If you can deal with the hefty price tag you should definitely get the stick. You'll be happy you did in the long run.
Also, KI in my opinion is very beginner friendly. Once you wrap your head around how the combo system works you'll pretty much be able to play any character and have a lot of fun.
Yes, I'd like to think the dpad is fine but maybe what I played on was a buggy dev kit. I know some people prefer a dpad. Hopefully it was only a developer kit problem.
To add to the above, think of KI as a platform like rock band
round one is really just the first set of characters
if they were to hit season 4, there would be more new characters than returning characters
I'm hoping they at least hit season 3 as they'd have a pretty good roster by that point and a LOT of new characters... That's when we see DH creativity really take over especially if they are prioritizing old over new

Most likely the customization items they have been talking about. Further guess is the usual gallery items, maybe music and what not.
I wish Mad Catz would announce Orchid Fightpad like that Chun Li one that they did in the past.
I am one of those people that prefer fightpads.A fightpad with Orchid and another one with Fulgore would be nice.(Fulgore one could be released later to celebrate him coming out.)
Yeah I'd buy a fightpad but I'm not interested in a fight stick at all. Joysticks never sat well with me.
Well shit, all this time i was thinking it was two separate things. Can't wait!
