Ammm... That's exactly what some KI players started to do against the Injustice players lol XD. We are sure Injustice is sogood & getting better, the last tournaments just proved it. They are the butthurt ones then. This thread was meant to be about "KI Hating" not "Injustice vs. KI" but KI players started that shit
Learn manuals/counterbreak. Welcome to mindgames
I know manuals/counterbreaks. I'm actually pretty good at this game and I've placed at multiple tournaments. Manuals can be broken, and counterbreaks are a guess that can get you punished. I'm not a very big fan of the combo system. And it causes me to not enjoy the game.
I think the combosystem is genius. Manuals are really hard to get broken if you dont use the same manuals all the time, and if you start guessing, your taking huge risks and your gonna be in alot of trouble.
Yes this weekend I'm gonna sit down w it again and learn spinal
There are punishes. If someone keeps doing stupid shit and you block you can shadow counter, meter isn't scarce in this game. The beauty of it is you can shadow counter normals too. Or alternatively you can combo them if they were negative or w/e. Sure they can break, but you have answers to that too. Counterbreak, use manuals and mix it up, or let them break and study their habbits. No matter how unpredictable people try to be, theres always a pattern. It's a very fast paced game and it is mentally taxing. But to say that there aren't punishes or that punishes are weak is false. A punish is as good as you make it. The META is all about mindgames. Due to the nature of the games mechanics, the better player will win 9 times out of 10. Sure there might be some random lucky guess every now and then but if your are better than your opponent at making reads and downloading your are almost guaranteed to win.
That's actually a pretty good point. I really hope that it works out that way because this game IS good and should get a chance to shine. If the numbers increase with time, that would be amazing. I don't think that's ever happened to a fighting game before, but then again as you said KI is in a bit of a unique situation.
I don't need some giant explanation of how the combo system works. I understand the combo system. I practice this game with Steve, who is one of the best KI players in the SoCal area right now, very frequently. I heavily disagree with the combo system. I don't like the mentality it gives to players. I didn't come in here to get into an argument, just to state my opinion. I'm glad people enjoy this game and that this game is getting the exposure it deserves. I'm probably going to stick to SF and Injustice.
Whatever. I'm curious to know what mentality it is you feel it gives players. Just curious.
It gives them the IDGAF mentality that most online players have. If I'm being completely honest, I play terrible against players like that since I base my gameplay off of mainly reads and counters. And I generally lose to people with that mentality unless I can force myself to adapt. And it's very hard to get a read on someone who isn't doing optimal things, or just doesn't care about the risk/reward in a situation. Which is one of the main reasons I don't enjoy it. I do think the game is extremely entertaining at a high level, and it is very mind game heavy. But I'm not a fan of those types of situations. Like I said, not bashing the game or anything, it's just my opinion.
I totally understand you. These are what I like to call the scumbag players. I've ran into a couple myself. These types of players have no fear or respect for you. They play risky and without calculation, chaotic. I have almost the same mentality to you regarding my approach in this game. Adjusting to these kind of players is rough and mentally taxing. They anger me sometimes but I just play into there game. I stop caring and and stop respecting their options as well.
Nope, no idea New here my mistake, so i guess you win?
i read somewhere that even if you fuck up ryse's quick time events they happen anyway, is that true? Just wondering
Interesting. Yeah I think it looks sweet, I just can't afford an XB1 right now lol. Otherwise I'd have it already
When was KI not an exclusive? Tell me cause I remember it only been a snes and N64 exclusive.
Different times man. I don't think that's a good argument at all
Who cares. This isnt a console war.
