All the cries, complaints and whines have been heard by SNK Playmore and they have announced that these online issues regarding KOF XII have been fixed. This means that super special-spamming players can finally enjoy lag-free victory with their cheap thumb-pressing skills.

According to Shinya Morishita, SNK Director of Japan and US Relations in the recent press release…

“The King of Fighters is one of the most popular fighting game franchises of all time,”… “SNK PLAYMORE and Ignition Entertainment have worked together very closely to ensure that we have addressed all gameplay concerns. We are both committed to supporting quality products and are excited to announce the release of this new gameplay update which allows our fans to continue to enjoy The King of Fighters XII.”

In other words, it’s standard-fare corporate face-saving. Anyway, the new patch will actually fix some pretty annoying issues such as “specifications to the tallying of TrueSkill points in a ranked match, correction to movements of specific character combinations and/or match-ups, and specifications related to in-game chat capability restrictions”

The patch is currently available for Xbox Live subscribers and if you need more information about King of Fighers XII you can visit the Official Website.
