Hello all, and welcome to the Killer Instinct FAQ.
|
||
|
|
Because I do not play SFII... but do play MK, I will try to explain
|
||
|
|
everything as if you haven't played either.
|
||
|
|
The game is a Mortal Kombat/Virtual Fighter/Street Fighter type game with
|
||
|
|
graphics that blow em all away. My only current complaint is that it seems
|
||
|
|
impossible to block combo moves, and this gets you killed way too quick for
|
||
|
|
50 cents. (IMHO)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sorry for the big delay I have been swamped. There is some new stuff in
|
||
|
|
here as well as another format change.(last one I, really!)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
See the misc section for release date stuff!

|
* Rounds *

|
**********
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Each player starts with 2 bars of energy to use for the entire game.
|
||
|
|
(Think of it as one LARGE bar but only half is shown onscreen at a time.)
|
||
|
|
Once the first bar is gone, the player falls, gets up and starts to use the
|
||
|
|
second bar of energy. The player who wins the first round gets to keep their
|
||
|
|
remaining energy plus still has the second bar to use. This makes it more
|
||
|
|
fair to the person who wins the first round. So, if you weren't paying
|
||
|
|
attention, and lost big time the first round... chances are very slim for a
|
||
|
|
come-back!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Last Breath: This allows you one last chance for life. You get enough
|
||
|
|
energy to take one more hit! I have one matches using this, and really
|
||
|
|
upset some people! After the voice says 'No Mercy' start rotating your
|
||
|
|
stick and maching buttons, you guy will get back up and start to fight
|
||
|
|
again! You MUST do this before the other person start's doing the no mercy!
|
||
|
|
If you were the winning person and do not want your opponent to come back
|
||
|
|
with his 'Last Breath' you must just hit them again, and forget about the
|
||
|
|
no mercy!
|
||

**********
|
||
|
|
* Combos *
|
||
|
|
**********
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A combo is a consecutive series of hits (punches/kicks/specialty moves)
|
||
|
|
without your opponent being able to retaliate. These are not all confirmed
|
||
|
|
and don't work all the time. I did see Orchid do a Combo Breaker. I don't
|
||
|
|
know how, she just did her Helicopter Kick, and the guy flew back.
|
||
|
|
Each characters combos are discussed in detail on their page of the FAQ.
|
||
|
|
They've given each combo a "name" and when you complete one the game will
|
||
|
|
flash it up on the screen (similar to PR) and speak it, like "Hyper Combo"!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The combo "names are as follows:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3 Hits: Triple
|
||
|
|
4 Hits: Super
|
||
|
|
5 Hits: Hyper
|
||
|
|
6 Hits: Brutal
|
||
|
|
7 Hits: Master
|
||
|
|
8 Hits: Awesome
|
||
|
|
9 Hits: King
|
||
|
|
10 Hits: Monster
|
||
|
|
20 Hits: Ultra!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And they go on......
|
||

* Ultimate Victories *

**********************
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you win without losing your first bar of energy it is considered an
|
||
|
|
"Ultimate Victory" and the character gets a close up animation!
|
||
|
|
These animations are described in each character's section of the FAQ.
|
||
|

|
**************
|
||
|
|
* NO MERCY'S *
|
||
|
|
**************
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
More commonly known as fatalities......
|
||
|
|
When you defeat your opponent the computer yells "NO MERCY" and that is
|
||
|
|
your chance to kill him. (i.e. Finish HIM! from MK) These "No Mercy's"
|
||
|
|
are also described in each character's section of the FAQ.
|

**********
|
||
|
|
* STAGES *
|
||
|
|
**********
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Each game is played on a different stage. Each with its own background
|
||
|
|
picture, music. The players cannot pick which stage to play on , it's
|
||
|
|
randomly selected by the game. The current stages are as follows...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Canyon
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In this stage you are fighting on a rope/log bridge with a huge rock
|
||
|
|
canyon in the background. An interesting effect is that the bridge kinda
|
||
|
|
bounces when you jump on it. The setting sun has the sky turned blazing red
|
||
|
|
and the clouds are streaming towards you like mad. The music for this
|
||
|
|
stage has sort of an American Indian sound to it, with the chanting etc.
|
||
|
|
The main thing to remember on this stage is to avoid being trapped on
|
||
|
|
either end of the bridge since this puts you higher than your opponent and
|
||
|
|
at a serious fighting disadvantage!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- City Rooftop
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This stage has you on the rooftop of a skyscraper in a futuristic city at
|
||
|
|
night. In the background there are various other buildings with flashing
|
||
|
|
red beacons. There are also two billboards, one showing an animated
|
||
|
|
Ultra 64 logo and the other showing a realtime scaled down version of your
|
||
|
|
current fight! There is no high or low ground on this stage, but being
|
||
|
|
trapped in a corner can be pretty damaging. Although the roof looks alot
|
||
|
|
like the ring used in Virtual Fighter you CANNOT knock your opponent off
|
||
|
|
the roof, they merely get cornered.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Castle Rooftop
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Similar to the City Rooftop scene but in this one you are set in more of a
|
||
|
|
medieval time. Sort of a Transylvania feel to it, with bats flying around
|
||
|
|
and lightning flashing....even has a full moon! Again, no high or low
|
||
|
|
ground but watch those corners. And again, you cannot be knocked off the
|
||
|
|
roof.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Boxing Gym
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This one has you in a boxing workout gym with a boxing ring in the
|
||
|
|
background and large punching bags hanging down. This is one of the cooler
|
||
|
|
scenes cause as you and your opponent move back and forth the perspective of
|
||
|
|
the scene changes and you can really see the 3-D effect with the punching
|
||
|
|
bags and all.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Alleyway
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Wow we're out on the streets, fighting amongst the broken down cars and
|
||
|
|
graffiti covered buildings! This scene is also on of the better ones for
|
||
|
|
seeing the 3-D effect of the perspective changes, particularly in the cars
|
||
|
|
in the background. The music here has lots of police sirens going in it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Chateau
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Here you are fighting in a nice cozy little room with a fire going in the
|
||
|
|
fireplace and classic paintings hanging on the walls. Rich maroon velvet
|
||
|
|
drapes and gold chandeliers add to the feel of the room. There is a large
|
||
|
|
wooden door to the far right and stairs leading upwards to the left.
|
||
|
|
Don't get forced onto the stairs, this puts you on higher ground and
|
||
|
|
therefore at a disadvantage.

Your character is controlled using 6 buttons and 1 joystick.
|
||
|
|
The top row of buttons are high attacks/punchs and the row bottom are low
|
||
|
|
attacks/kicks. To keep the move list simple I will use the numbers 1-6 to
|
||
|
|
represent button presses. Below is the map.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1 2 3
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4 5 6
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you have played the SF games then the buttons are:
|
||
|
|
1 = Jab Punch 2 = Middle Punch 3 = Fierce Punch
|
||
|
|
4 = Jab Kick 5 = Middle Kick 6 = Fierce Kick
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Pull Back (away from opponent) to block.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To explain joystick movements I will use the following:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
F = Forward B = back D = Down U = Up
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
QCT= quarter circle towards QCB = quarter circle back
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
HCT = half circle towards HCB = half circle back
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I've found that not all moves are quarter or half circle.
|
||
|
|
There are moves that seem to require a 3/4 circle from back to top.
|
||
|
|
For these I will use 3/4CF. (for 3/4 circle forward, from back to top)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Almost all the characters have a move using QCT and Punch, I just do not
|
||
|
|
know exactly what they all do. (yet)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Almost all moves that start off with Back need to charge for a few seconds!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Moves with * in front of them have not yet been confirmed by myself, or more
|
||
|
|
than one person. As I try them, or anyone else (besides the person who gives
|
||
|
|
them to me in the first place)says they worked I will take off the *. I am
|
||
|
|
not saying I don't trust people..., I just don't want to get flamed by
|
||
|
|
people saying "Your FAQ says this, and it doesn't work, and I lost,and..."
|
||
|
|
So let me know if you can confirm a move!

|

a little too plastic-like for me.

Description:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
She wears a green jumpsuit and wields two little sticks (sorta like nunchuks
|
||
|
|
without the chain). These sticks glow when she hits and can magically
|
||
|
|
lengthen to about 3' so the can be used like a sword for some of her
|
||
|
|
specialty moves. She moves very quickly but, her moves seem too easy to
|
||
|
|
block, and not do much damage. But, I have seen her do some killer combos!

well as missle attacks.

|
Invisible: QCB,3 This turns him into just a few flames. He is

|
Jago will NOT be in the final release.
|
||
|
|
The game was designed in Europe, and just created here.
|
||
|
|
Glacius has 3 No Mercy's.
|
||
|
|
The game is on a hard drive... well almost.
|
||
|
|
I have been told, to make updates easier, currently it's on a CD rom.
|
||
|
|
This explains the delays at the beginning of play.
|
||
|
|
And yes it will change, before it's released!
|
||
|
|
There will be 14 total stages in the final release!

********
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Since nobody (at a certain game company) wants to say what version the
|
||
|
|
current one is, I don't know what bugs are in what version.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sometimes when on the roof stage, a player will get knocked into the air
|
||
|
|
with the camera angle from above looking down. The camera is about 50 feet
|
||
|
|
in the air, and there is NO body floating around up there. All you see is
|
||
|
|
the one person still on the ground. If the person on the ground is Chief
|
||
|
|
Thunder, he can keep doing the Flying Head Butt, and keep this invisible
|
||
|
|
body in the air!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Also if you get stuck in the corner... and the Chief keeps headbutting
|
||
|
|
you into the air... your stuck till you die.(and then some)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Not known, but most likely a hardware bug that is also in SOME MK II
|
||
|
|
machines, nobody will be able to move. The characters just stand there.
|
||
|
|
If you hit the machine (near the joystick's) this will free them up.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Not all 'No Mercy's' work on all characters. Either the animation for these
|
||
|
|
are not completed, or you must use a different 'No Mercy' on that person.

Release Dates:(yea) The game is being made slowly, and is being shipped to
|
||
|
|
all the BIG aracdes, and will go into super mass shipping by DEC 1st. So
|
||
|
|
All the little arcade everywhere will start to see it then!

Appologies for the lack of descriptions, like I said before I have been
|
||
|
|
swamped. Version 3.1 of this (hopefully out next week!) will be much more
|
||
|
|
descriptive. I just needed to get the format change done, and a few new
|
||
|
|
additions!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If anyone can fill in the blanks let me know! I am in touch with a Midway
|
||
|
|
rep... Hopefully we will get some inside info.
