#SNK #KOF #KOK15 #KOFXV #TheKingofFighters
1. Standby Team Members
This feature/mechanic had been gone since KOF98. Your teammates would cheer for you if you land attacks and get angry if you get hit. They'd even jump in to help you, depending on your relationship with them. They also react to certain moves like this
2. Alternative/Classic Costumes
Backup plan for the new costumes we don't like. Also because Mr. Karate II and Wild Wolf is cool

3. Stage Cameos
This is probably a nitpick but I loved finding characters and other references in stage backgrounds. They kind of makes you look forward to every stage. This is also a good trick to draw attention to stage details developers spent hours to polish.

4. Pre-battle Character Dialogue
There were mixed opinion about this SvC style character dialogues, as it had to sacrifice Special Intros between characters. It helps with characterization and story building. I honestly had fun reading them, though Special Intros are also cool!

5. You can pet the animal
Alright guys hear me out, if SNK adds an
option (taunt, win-pose) to pet the animals in
KOFXV, it will be an instant succese. Just
trust me.

6. Colour Customization
Definitely one of the most fun things to do in KOFXiii, which DEFINITELY needs to come back. Not sure how well it will work on modern 2.5D but I'll take that over nothing.

7. Guest Characters
KOF is a crossover of SNK games. After past few collaborations, there's high chance of getting characters/teams from fighting games by other companies. Though many may not like the idea, it will have nothing but positive impact if done correctly.
8. American Sports Team
Them being not playable since KOF98 isn't even funny anymore. Though they were added in multiple mobile games including KOF Allstar, which received great response. Hopefully that means something and give them more chance of coming back.

9. Bonus Stage
Alright this one's a joke, let's move on. (Though Bonus Stages in KOF would be interesting, wouldn't it?)
10. Rugal Bernstein
He's just so iconic that it feels like a piece is missing from KOF. But it was a VERY good decision that SNK kept him out of Ash Saga as he was a bit overused in classic era. If Rugal does indeed return, he should be like an Alt/Bad ending boss, like Adel 2003

11. An Actual 'Story Mode'
KOF's storyline/lore is far by one of the greatest and most of the time they're aren't well expressed via Arcade Mode. Modern 'Story Modes' are a good way to do that. There are multiple ways to execute it while having a separate Arcade Mode.

12. Acceptable Graphics
Most 'actual' fans/players doesn't care about this stuff but it is important to attract new players and also to please fans. But we probably don't need to worry about this as SNK has made huge improvements since KOFXIV, which we saw in SamSho 2019.

13. Quality over Quantity
The base roster is KOFXIV was HUGE, (50characters) while we do get to enjoy more characters I think it'd be best if KOFXV kept its roster 30-45 characters and focus more on the gameplay, balance and small important details and overall, more polished.

14. Cross-play
This is a really important feature to connect playerbase between different consoles and PC. This way people can also buy their copy at ease without the worry of not connecting with their friends. Though this won't be a pleasant experience without no.15 which is...

15. Rollback Netcode (GGPO/Code Mystic)
Good online is a MUST for any multiplayer games. A game's playerbase won't grow and stay alive unless the online experience is fun, no matter good the game is. Good online alone can make a dead game alive, for which we had mutliple examples
Honarable mentions
They are not in the main list as I'm fully expecting them to join the roster of KOFXV. It'd be real shame if they don't.
