@@philandermcfly6441 suuuuuuure, that explains his "reaction" video on Chris that never happened and the other comments on him on other games like Kof 2002 UM on stream
So this is Max on peak meme mode. The dedication to the meme to the point of actually getting proficient with Chris and enjoying it is truly commendable.
@@jonathansoko1085 I doubt both will be in at launch, the teams with open spots right now are the mystery team, Ash's team and the K' team. Rock and Geese alone wouldn't team up with Ash and K', even with this game doing some odd combinations that sounds far fetched. That leaves mystery team, which would beg the question why Rock is teaming up with Geese?
I thought it was my destiny to have my skull crushed by Shermie's thighs. After playing her for the first time I learned something important. I'm the one that should be crushing people's skulls with her thighs, because man oh man is she super fun to play.
I'm glad that team Orochi is back and from the looks of it, seem to be fun to play. Yashiro and Shermie looks like fun characters to use. And of course, let's not forget Chris, who is now one of Max's mains. Really hope they take the time to improve on the rollback once the beta ends. Definitely saw some hiccups when Max was playing on stream. We can at least agree that this one of the better KoF with online connectivity at launch compared to others.
The fact that this is such an improvement over 14 as far as online gives me hope. Plus the release is about 3 months away. This isnt like battlefield where there were glaring problems you knew couldn't be fixed. Im just really excited
Man this is some of the cleanest online I've seen outside of Guilty Gear Strive matches and I'm not even playing the game in person. Online is really coming a long way in fighting games now. I always used to hate delay-based lag and such in online, which is part of the reason why I never went online for fighting games much (that and getting bodied, but you have to learn somehow). This might start getting me back into playing online. Thanks for the video, Max, this is very helpful. KOF XV is looking to be the best in the series.
So glad Max is finally able to play his favorite character of all time Look like we got special interactions's too !.if a character some kind of relation with the opponent they will do a different intro or voice line. I always loved that from SNK games
Somehow, I knew Max would actually have fun playing as Chris. I didn't think much of him at first either, but now he's a part of one of my main teams with Kyo & Yuri in the UMs and I hope they're still just as good in this game as well.
Maybe its because its a beta and it might be in the main game. I know in older games if you held a button between rounds you could start with a different character
Despite Max's sarcasm and obvious contempt for Chris, he's always been a fun and easy character to play as - even if his old jump CD could be spammed to shit in the 2D games
This is looking pretty damn good! with every trailer the game was improving and now we see the (almost) final result. I just want to see how the "Yuri & Friends" team will play. She's been one of my main since KoF 97!
GG Strive is a great game. I bet a lot on it but never settled with the actual gameplay so I have high hopes for KOFXV. I've played the beta and love it. Just hope the community sticks around for a while so I don't have to go out of my way and go on discord to arrange matches. Otherwise I'm just stuck with Tekken 7 and Street Fighter V which (to me) are great games but it's gotten stale due to how much I've played them.
Chris probably doesn't have the install Super because they are planning to have the Orochi versions of the 3 characters as DLC or as unlockable bosses.
Wasn't this video original titled about him playing Chris? Speaking of which, why does Max hate Chris anyways, is it a lore reason like why some people initially hated Ash, the design, or the gameplay? Then again, people hate Shun'ei and maybe it's cuz I'm a new fan KOF but looking into it, he seems like a cool guy and I like his powers so maybe my opinion isn't valid. But I just wanna know, Max didn't even make a Chris trailer.
@AT Productions Idk. Chris's design is a bit bland imo. Vega is creepy but at least he doesn't pretend to be nice and polite like Chris. I find a guy or girl looking/acting like a nice person with a fake smile being creepier.
Max maybe you can help me out here; what is the purpose of quick max mode? You don't seem to get any more damage than if you just burn ex specials and Quick max mode doesn't give you enough time to abuse ex attacks. But it costs the same amount of meter as neutral max mode and neutral max gives you a lot more time and tod damage
It's useful in situations where a low commitment safe button can be hit confirmed into a low to mid damage combo that can kill. So if one quick max mode combo like a Ex into a super would kill they are very useful considering you fish with a safe poke like a crouching B attack string that is low risk into an easy kill. They in general are good round enders.
@@MrMissingnin44 but you can already do that with ex attacks i feel, and if you just confirm into an ex and anything less than a climax you've spent extra meter to do it. In fact the damage scaling is harsher on quick max so you might be less likely to kill than if you confirm with shatter strike and ex attacks instead
@@Countdownsmiles i get you but they are still safer in the sense of you still having a bit more visual confimation because of everything that has to happen i.e the quick max flash>the auto run as opposed to the hit confirm to pwrhaps mistiming the ex move and dropping the combo. If its anchor vs anchor in a stressful situation that will kill no matter what i would go with the option with a bigger safety net but i do agree about the scaling thing being worse,but again low damage where both options would kill.
@@MrMissingnin44 i see. i guess another thing is that some characters might not have good ex confirms and quick max might be their best option. Most of my time in the demo was spent labbing with kyo but he'll have better confirms than most characters i'd think. I'd still like to see a slight buff to quick max to help it find place in the meta, but i think we'll have to see how the full game plays
7:33 ok am I the only one that see's Kyo's face lookin like a Titan from Attack on Titan here!? It freaked me as aI was trying to watch the video. Also for more detail it looks like his teeth is visible through his intire head
I love KOF, but I noticed that this game lacks visual startup indicators for NeoMax supers, or for Chiziru's case, some sort of visual indicator for the illusions she makes to differentiate from the real one. But all-in-all, GOOD NETCODE!
I had a feeling Max would wind up finding Chris fun. It was the only possible conclusion after how much he played up how little he cared about the character.
Man, Max is so dedicated to trolling about Chris that he actually plays him well and even likes it
know that +
Maybe because he’s a legitimate Chris fan? Duh 🙄
Just takes a little trolling to open your character horizons.
Now he needs to react to the Chris trailer

Look like we got special interactions's too !.if a character some kind of relation with the opponent they will do a different intro or voice line. I always loved that from SNK games

As much as I dislike Chris, looks like they improved his gameplay.
Still, not a fan of him.

I'm so happy for Max, he can finally play his most awaited main, Chris.
2 things I want: The option to change team order when rematching, and not having to wait for the timer if I decline a rematch
Maybe its because its a beta and it might be in the main game. I know in older games if you held a button between rounds you could start with a different character
@@mrblackhouseprez Just saying things I want to see. I liked the beta and I want it to be the best game it can be.

Don't think that Chris was Bart Simpson. I think he was using kid Rock Howard's colors.
In addition, those colors on Chris can be either Bart Simpson or Number 4 from KND

Max's Chris trolling is so many layers deep I don't even think he knows if he likes Chris or not. It's also making me cry-laugh loudly
do anyone noticed the change in defend sound from the defend sound shown in Demo when Terry's Trailer was released?
Narrative of Self is the result of a feedback loop between “Separate Self” & Cosmos. 🎈
It's about time Max for you to use the power of Orochi!!
Kyo with that red jacket is looking FIRE
Pun intended
Friendship with Rock Howard ended. Now Chris is my new best friend.
Do anybody know if the Heavenly Gods team are gonna have their OROCHI form with the different movesets ?
They need to fix the 6-7 rollback frames at the start of the fight then go back to normal at the second round for the rest of the game bug.
Damn! This game looks good! I really want to play it.
Has Chris _always_ had "anime speed lines?" 😏 I only ever played the New Faces Team's "Orochi" forms.
yup, always did
Yes. The Orochi forms were always the boring versions.
@@Fusso i beg to differ
7:54 her stance is somewhere in between Phoenix wright and Swiper No Swiping.
So when's the Chris cosplay happening
Did they change Kyo's voice? It sounds weird and I don't recognize it :(
Chris probably doesn't have the install Super because they are planning to have the Orochi versions of the 3 characters as DLC or as unlockable bosses.
OHHH so this is where that girl with hair over eyes comes from
Saw a bunch of rule34 of her back in the day, Good stuff
4:10 I like the Killua Zoldyck alt from Chris here
“My name is Bart Simpson. Go to hell!” -Bart Simpson 2021
hahahaha dem Chris on yellow hair and orange shirt wid blue shorts.
reminds mi of young Rock.
NAAAANNNIIIIIIIII??
These were so much fun to watch!!

Design and personality.
He is creepy.

Chris is that kind of dude who you would hate to love and love to hate
Like Athena, only without the urge to ragequit the moment I hear "Psycho Ball". But yeah, Chris is way too fun to be this annoying.
I’m taking my privates to Suplex City thanks to Shermie.
Ah yes, Maxmillian Dood, the Chris fan
Max what Arcade stick do you use? Does anyone have recommendations? I have a ps5
Dude try order a hitbox or mixbox for your ps5
Qanba has some good ones in not absurd prices. You can always go to Hori too.
Hori Fighting Edge works with PS5 just update the firmware (it's available on their site). But yeah, I recommend mixbox/hitbox for KOF.
Was playing not wired, and out of about 30 matchups or so, only dropped one that disconnected. Using PS4 slim.
I was thinking about picking up a new game... Vice and Beni are so cool. Do KOF players use interference mods like in Marvel?
Max uses Chris
Max MAINS CHRIS
Got us in the first half, not gonna lie.

What say you of Arc System's DNF Duel???
Even at rollback frame 7 it seemed pretty smooth and without delay
This just makes me want learn the game even though I’ve been playing for a long time never truly learned kof mechanics like that.
I'm going to risk it all for Sherme
Kyo doesn't sound pissed of
Maybe it's the new voice actor
Loving the fact that Chris having alt colors to look like Bart Simpson.
"Doing KoF14 stuff!" -> looks more like Kyo's stuff in general, really xD
P.S. Damn, Yashiro looks sexy!

I knew Max would like Chris, he might not like his design but he's fun AF to play.
At the ring stage. Am I the only one who gets Tekken vibes from the BGM on that stage?
That Chris orange and blue alt color is a reference to Rock Howard xD

The beginning of the battle ost sounds so much like "awe of she".

Aww I had a completely unfounded hope that Max was playing Shermie from the thumbnail
Wassup Max? Good matches bro! :)
Does kyo have a fireball in kof xv?
Is Shun'Ei the Groh of this game?
