Day 1 Patch Coming for MKX (Update is confirmed w/ PreLoad)

[RiverHB]

I can't think of 1 game that hasn't had a day 1 patch. Par for the course.

 

[CrimsonShadow]

Why are you guys getting a bad taste? This has been the case with every single last-gen NRS game AND hyped up high traffic games.

How'd the patch impact what you were saying about the online experience earlier?

 

[BRUTALITY]

rumour has it will first check for existing MKX data prior to release date and consoles with such data will be bricked i. a following patch. sorry guys! bad luck!

 

[BRUTALITY]

This always worries me when I see this right from the start.

yeah lets not hold our breath, if this online was legit they would have marketted the hell out of it. cant wait to play IGAU netcode 2.0

I downloaded "a" patch 20 hours ago. The connection was horrible but I had played against one person all the way in dubai with whom I always have a mediocre connection at best. I'll see if there is another patch right now.

Why is everyone suprised?

Day 1 patches are the norm now

Im betting the reason the coins where so easy to obtain was so reviewers didn't have to grind all day

Games are sent to press long before release date. And in that time there are plenty of things to find, especially in our generation of games when games are so much more complicated to make.

 

[Kim0z]

With this patch you get less koins than before, also i noticed that I no longer have access to online rooms, I can play ranked tho, can anyone who already have the game confirm that?

 

[Zatoichi]

Yeah, just what I need, a day one, 2GB update. Getting fed up with these day one patches.

 

[Brutal Chimney]

this isnt the same as a knee jerk reaction patch people, calm down.

 

[mrkareemruiz]

Can you download the patch now, so people can see if D'Vorah and Johnny are broken and need fixing?

 

[Eddy Wang]

The new patch probably adds better Ai for NPCs
more moves balanced around stamina.
Skarlet model for later DLC in the game (lol sure not)

 

[WakeUp DP]

What are NPCs?

 

[lionheart21]

What are NPCs?

NPC=Non-Playable Character

So Kabal isn't playable?

So Kabal isn't playable?

Unless he's DLC at some point, he is not.

You preorder it digitally and the patch along with the game begin downloading the Sunday before release.

Jesus, how many GB would the actual game be if this type of update is 2GB? I don't have the fastest internet, I have crappy Century Link.

The game is around 32GB

 

[Vagrant]

This is where my hope in TYM comments goes to die.

 

[xWildx]

Not surprising at all.

 

[Barrogh]

It's ok. Remember that the community at large haven't even started to "test" the game. Practice shows that no realistic amount of closed testing will net you results compared to what entire community can do, be it technical or gameplay aspect.

Just look at MikeZ's example. I hope for adequate support from NRS too.

Well.. they can improve online stability via updates now. Maybe the online will be good this time around.

Let's be honest, just how many patches from NRS had patch notes without these words?

 

[NoobHunter420]

if you already have the game add me on ps4 so that you can shareplay the game with me

According to the psn game page it's 33.5GB

I truly hope that we wont see another patch before Christmas.
