King of Fighters XIII – NESTS Kyo R.E.D. Kick Bug

It turns out that there is a moderately game breaking bug in one of King of Fighters XIII’s new DLC characters. If you manage to connect with a command grab on the first frames of NESTS Kyo’s R.E.D. Kick, the command throw and kick will happen at the same time. The result is a throw animation being executed without Kyo in the thrower’s hands, and a Kyo that stays in an animation freeze infinitely. While stuck in this frozen state, Kyo is totally vulnerable. Any hits landed on him count as part of a combo and his life meter will still drop. It’s essentially a free win for the command thrower. Check out this video of the bug in action from Nico Nico Douga.

      Yeah, I’m thinking that’s what’s going to happen as well – put the fix in with the Mr. Karate update.

    I can’t wait for the capcom zealot hypocritical comments to come about.

    Desk finds a fuckton of glitches for MvC3 that fuck the game up: “Haha, awesome. Pretty funny!”

    A glitch is found in KOF 13: “THIS GAME FUCKING SUCKS. SNK IS SHIT”

      What, you mean this *wasn’t* found by Desk?  I thought he was the God of Fighting Game Glitches™!

    funny.  But how often would this happen in a real match.  I don’t find myself using red kicks unless I’m pressuring someone or going over fireballs.   I can’t see myself using this after an empty jump.

    • Anonymous

      the empty jump is there for timing purposes, so the players know when to execute the command throw and re-enact the glitch.

        Actually me and a friend accidentally did this last Tuesday (had a KoF party for NESTS Kyo, since it’s my buds favorite.) However, had my throw connected properly, he would have been dead anyways because he had so little health. Just went up and hit him with a single HK afterwards, dead.

      Me and a friend actually managed to do it by accident first day it was released. He hosted a mini-KoF party in celebration of NESTS Kyo coming out (one of his favs) so he got played a lot that night. I managed to trigger it doing a throw with Leona, he was one hit from death though so it wasn’t that big a deal. Only happened that one time, but it’s not like we ever intentionally attempted it.

    Not a bug, totally intentional. It’s a reference to the Hero Team ending in KoF 2001 where Goro threw Kyo and he flew through the air in a static pose.

    This will never happen unless you literally force it to occur. Stop whining, game is fine.

    Oh well, SNK’s been really nice about fixing bugs and stuff in KOF XIII.

    Not too big of a problem.
