I was just about to make a thread talking about this, good thing someone responded to this one and put it at the top. I must've sent a tweet to every MK team member on Twitter thanking them for the fixes. People are quick to ask questions and complain to them, I think it'd be appreciated by those who work hard on this game to hear they're getting some results.
Now for my somewhat brief review on the netcode fix. Before the patch, MK was unplayable for me online on the 360(I have both systems and MK for both, but most of my time is spent on the 360). The lag was so bad to the point where I was convinced that it wasn't just the netcode causing the issues. I was getting excessive slow motion type lag and dropped inputs, it was so frustrating. So after calling my company and having them send someone over to check it out, they confirmed that everything was good and my online connections should be fine. I never got excessive lag for any other game, so I just stopped playing MK online and waited patiently for the patch.
Now after the patch, I haven't got one match with loads of lag and my inputs aren't being dropped or delayed. Even packed King of the Hill rooms are running smooth for everyone in the lobby(unless someone has a crap connection). I am finally having a lot of fun with this game online. Just like everyone else, I have been getting a lot of desyncs at the selection screen and while that's a big problem, I'll take it without complaining since I don't have to deal with the previous problems anymore. I trust NetherRealm studios to get their online perfected by time the next character DLC is due out, and when that happens, MK9=GOAT fighting game...of course in my own bias opinion.
