KOF fans have much to be excited about. Atlus and SNK-Playmore have released the highly anticipated patch for The King of Fighters XIII today.
After listening to gamers, both Atlus and SNK-Playmore collaborated on repairing numerous issues that affected online matches.
The patch addresses many issues and even includes bug fixes for “NESTS-Style” Kyo and Iori with the Power of Flames.
The latest patch includes:
- ◊ Ranked Match Filtering: One of the most requested additions, players may now set conditions for their opponent’s connection. When a player who doesn’t meet the standby conditions tries to enter the Ranked match, a warning message will be displayed and the match cancelled.
- ◊ Improved Filtering: Filtering functionality in general has seen dramatic improvements. Previously, certain connection data was not filtered sufficiently and the player had a chance of connecting to opponents with poor connection quality. Now, more aggressive filtering should ensure that players are only matched with opponents who meet their filter settings.
- ◊ Improved Connection Antenna: The computation behind the players’ connection antenna, the meter indicating the quality of a player’s connection, has been improved, resulting in a more accurate and consistent measurement.
- ◊ Temporarily Saved Custom Match Settings: Players may continue searching for opponents with the same settings as long as the player remains in the PLAYER MATCH/RANKED MATCH menu.
- ◊ Character-specific Bug Fixes: “NESTS-Style” Kyo and Iori with the Power of Flames no longer become unresponsive under certain circumstances.
- ◊ Additional refinements, fixes, and more!
The KOF XIII patch is currently available for Playstation 3 and will be available soon for Xbox Live .
