I hope to load this FAQ full of info on the game, from the basics of play to the most complicated of moves. This game is simply awesome and I plan to make this and its "companion" King of Fighters R-2 FAQ a force to be reckoned with! ;) |-----REVIEW----- |Overall - 10/10 | To put it simply, this game is perfect. Everything about | it has been honed over uncountable installments of this | classic series, and this is the climax of all SNK's great | work. | |Music - 10/10 | The music is awesome. Every one of the dozens of | characters actually has their own theme! There is music | to fit all tastes. Take for example Billy Kane's | industrial/techno, KMFDM-ish music compared to Blue | Mary's jazz theme. And with the near four dozen characters | there is bound to be at least song you like! | |Graphics- 10/10 | The character sprites are simply amazing. Tons of | bright, vibrant colors and smooth animation that far | surpass even the game's arcade counterparts! I have | seen comparison screen shots of '99 and the arcade '98 | side by side and the difference is astounding. The | fluidness of the animation frames is great. The frame | rate is garunteed to be the best you've seen in a 2d | fighter except maybe the DC version of Marvel vs. | Capcom. | |Control - 9/10 | The control is also a feat to behold. For those | of you who think that only Capcom can make a decent | fighting engine... you are dead wrong. The control is | extremely fluid, and beats the crap out of previous | SNK fighters. |---------------- ==================================================================================== PART 3 - BASICS !! More info coming to this section soon !! -----Extra Vs. Advanced Mode----- There are some important differences between the two modes, and the one you choose will ultimately affect the outcome of the battle. Most of you will want to use Advanced mode. Advantages/Disadvantages of Extra: (+) In Extra mode you can build up your Power meter, without actually having to fight. (+) You can use infinite Desperation moves when low in life. (+) If your bar is Maxed and you are low in life it is the same as "Power MAX" so you can do your Super Desperation Moves. (-) You can only "store" one Desperation move at a time. (-) Once fully charged, you have a limited time to use your Desperation move or else you have to recharge. Advantages/Disadvantages of Advanced: (+) You don't have to leave yourself open to earn your Desperation Move. (+) You can "store" multiple Desperation moves. (+) You can use "Power MAX" without being low in life. (-) May take a while to get your Power Gauge up depending on how the fight goes. -----Power MAX----- To activate "Power MAX" you have to be in Advanced mode and press all four of the attack buttons. This will take up one level of your Power Gauge. What this does, is your Desperation moves will do more damage, and will usually look much more extravagant(called Super Desperation Moves). Unfortunatly, you have a limited time to pull off the move, before you go back to normal. This is a great technique for any beginner to master the use and timing of. Note that in Extra mode you can only do Super Desperation Moves when you are low and life and your Power Gauge is up. -----Strong Attack----- You can do a "Strong Attack" by pressing both HP and HK at the same time. This is generally a move such as a drop kick or shoulder charge, or just a large punch, that can be used to do damage like a normal move. Thought I would mention it for those of you who have never played a King of Fighters game before and can't read the Japanese Instructions. :) -----Dodging & Rolling----- Depending on whether you choose "Advanced" or "Extra you get a different evasion technique you can use by pressing both LK and LP at the same time. Extra gives you a dodge, that allows you side step an attack. Advanced gives a roll, that you can use to get by moves, get behind an opponent, etc. I am admittedly not very good with these techniques, so if you feel you can elaborate more on them, please send me an e-mail. ==================================================================================== PART 3 - CHARACTERS & MOVES More details and such about the moves coming later. There are tons of characters in this game and it will take me some time to get everything up. I now have everything up from the book, as well as all the moves for every character that was also in King of Fighters R-2. I am currently working on adding the moves unlisted in the book, and descriptions for the various moves. NOTE: It will take me a while to translate the move names in Kanji, as the text is so small in the book because of the number of characters they didn't add the little Hiragana notes above the Kanji characters. ========== KEY ====================================================== UB = Up & Back U = Up UF = Up Forward P = Any Punch B = Back F = Forward K = Any Kick DB = Down & Back D = Down DF = Down & Forward * = Desperation Move ===================================================================== +----------------------------------------------------------------+ | (MOVE NAME) (COMMAND MOTION) | | === | | [ MOVE DESCRIPTION, note not all moves have this yet.

Also, the SDM ] | | [ version will run through almost every attack I've seen ] | | [ thrown at it, and does a good 55-65% or so damage! ] | |----------------------------------------------------------------| | * Gravity Storm D,DF,F,D,DF,F+P | | === | | [ Leona does several (very) short range kicks, and if one ] | | [ connects she will enter into a series of attacks. The SDM ] | | [ version will do more opening kicks so you get a better ] | | [ chance to connect, and it does more damage as usual. ] | |----------------------------------------------------------------| |== Notable Attacks =============================================| | | | Overhead Kick F+LK | | - This is a good move as it will hit ducking opponents even | | when they are blocking if you are close enough. | | | |----------------------------------------------------------------| |== Notable Combos ==============================================| | | | Grand Saber into Moon Slash | | - A simple combo to pull off and does some good damage for | | its ease. Simply do the LK version of the Grand Saber and | | start charging Down for the Moon Slash, wait a second for | | the opponent to start falling from the peak of being | | knocked upwards then "complete" the Moon Slash(either | | strength). | | | +----------------------------------------------------------------+ +----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ___ ___ _ ___ | | | _ \/ _ \| | | __| Ralf | | | /| || |_ | _| | | |_|_\|_|_||___||_| | | | +----------------------------------------------------------------+ | Gatling Attack Charge B,F+P | | === | | [ Punch combo ending in an uppercut.

F,D,DF+K | | === | | [ Billy launches himself up off the screen and then comes ] | | [ down doing damage. A good move, but do not rely on it too ] | | [ much. It has very specialized uses, such as jumping over ] | | [ "super fireballs" like Takuma's and the Kaiser Wave from ] | | [ Rugal. ] | |----------------------------------------------------------------| | ??? D,DB,B+P | | === | | [ This version of Billy's anti-air attack.

P(Repeatedly) | | === | | [ As usual for one of the "P Repeatedly" moves, this is a ] | | [ rapidly done attack, in this case with Billy's cane. LP ] | | [ will make him spin the cane around himself, which is good ] | | [ for comboing for LOTS of damage when you catch the enemy ] | | [ in the corner. HP will make him poke forward with his ] | | [ cane rapidly, if you want a little range. This is a good ] | | [ move to keep the opponent back a little. ] | |----------------------------------------------------------------| | * ??? D,DF,F,DF,D,DB,B+P | | === | | [ Billy spins his cane around creating fire, then launches ] | | [ a large spinning fireball.

D,DF,F,D,DF,F+P | | === | | [ Billy spins his cane around creating fire, then hits the ] | | [ ground in front of him making a pillar of fire. ] | | [ Essentially this move is used for the same purpose I use ] | | [ the above DM, but as it is meant for this purpose it has ] | | [ a larger range. ] | |----------------------------------------------------------------| |== Notable Attacks =============================================| | | | Fish Toss (Close)F+HP | | - Standard Throw.

D,DF,F,D,DF,F+P | | === | | [ This has got to be one of the coolest looking moves in ] | | [ the game! However, looks aren't everything and this is a ] | | [ very mediocre DM.

(In Air)D,DF,F+K | | === | | [ Shermie will flip forward(jumping higher in the process) ] | | [ and a lightning "barrier" will form around the bottom of ] | | [ her feet and will go through most any move. Unfourtunatly ] | | [ because of the height the flip part takes you to it takes ] | | [ away quite a bit from a great move. I suggest hopping ] | | [ backwards(B,B) and then doing the move while in the air. ] | | [ This keeps you low due to it is just a hop, but still ] | | [ allows you to do the move as it counts you as "in air". ] | |----------------------------------------------------------------| | ??? B,DB,D,DF,F+K or P | | === | | [ This is a cool move. Shermie will blow a kiss and ] | | [ depending on the button you use a lightning ball will ] | | [ appear at different locations on screen.

D,DF,F,D,DF,F+K | | === | | [ Shermie is surrounded by lightning and fly across the ] | | [ screen feet first like an arrow. The SDM version will ] | | [ make two "lightning clones"(for lack of a better term) go ] | | [ across the screen with her, covering more area and doing ] | | [ significantly more damage.

Characters with secret versions of them include: Kyo Kusanagi(from KoF '94) Terry Bogard(from Real Bout 2) Andy Bogard(from Real Bout 2) Joe Higashi(from Real Bout 2) Ryo Sakazaki(from Art of Fighting/KoF '94) Robert Garcia(from Art of Fighting/KoF '94) Yuri Sakazaki(from Art of Fighting/KoF '94) Mai Shiranui(from Real Bout 2) Billy Kane(from Real Bout 2) Orochi Yashiro Orochi Shermie Orochi Chris Omega Rugal -----SECRET STAGES----- Similar to the characters, some stages even have their own special versions. Just hold down "Start" while selecting certain stages. -----EXTRA SURVIVAL MODE----- Hold down "Start" and press "A" over Survival Mode. To do this you may have to beat it once normally first. You will know if you are in the alternate survival mode if you fight characters alone instead of as teams. -----EARNING THE "VISUALS"----- Through fighting you can earn points with which you can view "Visuals" which are just a series of pictures. This option can be found under "Neo Geo Pocket", just go to upload and select Point Plus to get credit for your points you have earned. Then, go to download and you can look at the different pictures you have enough points to view. Note the following. Each character can only get 100 points max. In other words, to get every picture, you must master all the characters. The following is not set in stone, but this is what I THINK is the number of points you get for various things: Win - 1 point DM Finish - 1 point Perfect - 3 points Beat Omega Rugal - 5 points Under 10 Seconds - 20 points The Rugal one I am *really* unsure about, but when I got a perfect with a DM finish on him with Orochi Yashiro I suddenly had 10 points, instead of the 5 I would normally earn from that. Again I will say it though, these numbers may not be correct. There is a page that gives the numbers on SNK Japan's site, and that is where I got the under 10 seconds one, but I may have mistranslated. I will test it out before the next update. -----EASY WAY TO GET THE VISUALS----- Not really a secret, but something worth mentioning. The amount of points you get in no way relies upon the game's settings. In other words you can turn your Power Meter to MAX, the difficulty to easy, and then rack up the points with no problems whatsoever! ;) ==================================================================================== PART 5 - KING OF FIGHTERS R-2 _ _ ___ ___ __ | |/ / ___ | __| | _ \ _ /_ \ | < / _ \| _| | /|_| / / |_|\_\\___/|_| |_|_\ /___| Well, I don't have the NGP-DC Link Cable personally, but I thought I would go ahead and lay out the relation between R-2 and '99 based on what various friends have told me. Right off let me say, it seems to be commonly thought you can upload your Making Mode character from R-2... well you can not. Sucks doesn't it? The only thing that you can do via the link is upload points from R-2 to get the visuals... Frankly, I have no idea why SNK would include something as worthless as this for something they have hyped as much as the NGP-DC relationship. ---Added on 7/08/99--- New info has come up on this that was told to me about a week ago but I forgot to update here. You can also download special skills to your Making Mode character from '99 characters you have 100 points with.
