Now it's time to get your friends interested by showing it off. It's much improved.
SNK really needs to make some good graphic for the reveal trailer of Gar.... their next game, KOF 14 is the game with the ps2 era graphic not the one with a big roaster or good mechanic.
And those ps2 jokes sigh
Triggered
I'm in Italy and I can't ddl the patch with my US account

It should work, that's weird. I'm using one despite being in EU and had no issue. It downloads upon launching the game though, not automatically this time apparently.

Damn that looks really different from before. And WAY better.

Wow, now I want to buy this game. Looks so much better than what they had before.
A bunch of people were claiming the game as it was originally revealed (and some even at release) looked like a PS2 game.

Looks good. The graphics never bothered me, but it's nice to see developers improve on the visuals after release. I don't think I've ever seen this happen before. Props to SNK.
Was gonna wait until the SFV plat was finished to jump back in, but I guess I should start later this week.

I don't know about that... but it definitely looks a lot better.
Lighting goes a really long way and the game seriously lacked a good lighting engine. That was a large part of why it looked like an early PS3 game.
I still think the lighting could be better. More plush. It's kind of harsh right now.
See Mario Kart 8 for what godlike lighting can do.
A silly exaggeration. Obviously KOF14 has much more detail and a higher polygon count and it's rendering at 1080p, not 480i.
Utterly ridiculous! It looked more like a Dreamcast game.
Yo they gave Billy a Terry color palette.
The upgrade is pretty significant, the game looks legit solid now.
Checked various characters that looked iffy in close ups before and the difference is like night and day. Alice looks fantastic now.
Effects such as hits, energy, fireballs etc have been upgraded as well.
There are various other tweaks as well, such as Kyo's body now giving off flames during the startup of the SDM version of Orochinagi like in the older games.

Shame it doesn't deal damage like in the old games.
I take this patch is only cosmetic? no balance changes discovered yet?
Neo_G confirmed that there are no balance changes in this patch.
Whelp, I've got error message when searching room and creating room. No online for me ! (EU version)

And :
Looks like various characters had their colors refreshed aside from the two new ones.
Angel for example had all of them changed aside from the default one. So she basically has five new colors.
Yas!
And yeah, online is having issues for me too.

SNK mainly focused on characters & content for this game much more so than graphics, obviously. KOF XIV was their first modern 3D game, after all (or should we say, 2.5D).
When development of KOF XV begins, they can easily focus more on the graphics since they've already made 50 characters & another Kyo skin in 3D while including some more characters that didn't get the 3D treatment yet.
The ironic thing about that is that everyone is saying that KOF XIII looks better, yet the character models, etc. are in 480i (or 480p), lmao.
