Since day 1. Except the regular asshats that came with drive by posts like "double helix suxs"

Technically the game looks great. Shame about the recent 720p news. My two biggest problems are the character designs (Jago & Glacius look awful to me, I've always said that). And some of the individual moves the characters have (not really the biggest deal).

Awful?

Needs more DOA:U in it.
 
How can they offer a soundtrack when they have so many players to add that gets its own music with its stage you will have to wait until it is '' complete ''

Depressingly valid point right here.

I guess they could have added what they have as a "Killer Cuts sampler" of sorts to the $40 package.

I'd like to think that I'm not a "regular asshat", but I definitely wasn't sure about Double Helix initially. That's all changed now though, based on what they've shown. The team have my full respect.

1. Do it like the Skillgirls Kickstarter did: Update the new tracks to the Soundtrack download as they are released.

2. Killer Cuts: Volume 1 with S1, Volume 2 with S2, etc...

Digital Products can be updated on the fly. There's no technical reason why a digital Killer Cuts couldn't be dynamically updated in a variety of ways.
 
Based on what you guys know so far, who do you think you will main? I'm probably going with Wulf myself. I love the way he plays, totally fits me.

Glacius so far. Which is funny, as he was probably my least favourite character in the original. Amazing redesign imo.

Sabrewulf was my main in original Killer Instinct followed by Orchid. So this time round I'll stick with Sabrewulf and try the Spider Witch woman out too.
 
Any chance of season 2 ultra edition including KI 2 arcade? Would love to be able to play both arcade versions!

Also I'm guessing they will focus on KI 1 characters for season 1 (+ Sadira) and we will see Tusk, Maya and/or Kim Wu in season 2.
 
I couldn't "figure out" Glacius. I'm sure people will be great with him but he didn't click with me.

Yea, I have considered that may be a problem. I have a tendency to pick characters that I think look cool, and then try to figure the whole 'how to win' aspect later. Hell I picked Makoto for the initial release of Super Street Fighter 4, it can't be any worse than that was lol.

This would be great to have as another $40 package.
 
For now, Primary main Thunder, Secondary Glacius. They both were my favorites in KI1, and both updates make them into unique characters that fill a lot of nuances I always look for in my character choices.

Plus Thunders Stage and music are some of my favorites so far, and we all know that Characters are powered up when fighting in their own stages! It's an unspoken truth.
 
Glacius is really creepy and I love his design, but I don't think I am a good enough of a player to manage him. Probably Wulf since I am going to mash the shit out of this game ;)
He also has the best stage, fact.
 
Probably Sabrewulf for me at least at first, though usually in fighting games i tend to main female characters for the most part. So i am keeping an eye on Sadira's full reveal.
 
Is it true that Rare is overseen this project?

NOPE.

But the project is in good hands since Carter Pewterschmidt Ken Lobb is on board:

I know they have input with Ken Lobb and some of the original developers. The original (forgot their names) composers are giving Mick their approval every time he comes out with a soundtrack for the game.

So while DH is on top of things working on this game, spiritually Rare is involved.

All about the 22nd!!!

Sadira, for certain, as of right now. I love the quick and agile characters. I've been maining Vega since he was able to be picked, if that explains why I am so drawn to Sadira (from what we've seen).

I played Sabrewulf in the old game, and I really want to play him in this one too. Thunder looks fun as well, so they will be the first ones I try.
 
So I have finally made the decision and pre ordered an Xbox 1. Now my hype for this game is rapidly increasing. Shame about the character limits but still going to loads of fun never the less.

I have the fondest memories of my older brother utterly destroying me as I tried to play Sabre on the snes when I was about 6 years old. Good times.

Now years later I am the bigger gamer and definitely the more active fighting game player, time to turn the table on him.

Fulgore, then Fulgore and maybe Fulgore too. Oh yeah! I forgot to mention Fulgore. Then maybe Spinal or Thunder.
 
Really liking the alternate color options and yeah I'm pretty pumped about classic character skins, can't wait to see those.
 
Observing the new Glacius model a bit more, he looks more refined and solid than earlier. I'm warming up to it.

I wanna see a combo video. No commentary, no background, just a good five minute exhibition of combos for each characters that the devs/pros come up with. As many streams as I see, I feel as if they're not even breaking grounds with the game. Just like a morsel everyday aha.
 
Just checked out that video from late on the last page going over character colors and soon. Oh man... Is it November 22nd yet? So hype!
