I've spent the past half hour in practice mode with every character except Shinnok unlocked with no problems (knock on wood). Pack 26 just finished downloading, still no story mode available but at least it looks super pretty and runs well.

For those talking about a button-mapping glitch, do you mean you're unable to remap the buttons? Because I'm able to, but the inputs in-game don't correspond to what I'm pressing (like if I press B on my fight stick it still displays as X, X is Y, and so on).

Also, in Injustice (and maybe even MK9, I forget) when you were in practice mode and tagged certain moves/combos to stay on the screen, the directional inputs would switch back and forth depending on which direction you were facing...so far they're static here which is pretty disappointing. Maybe that's something that hasn't been downloaded yet.

Since I haven't tried installing yet, I can't comment on mapping in Mortal Kombat X, but I can tell you in Mortal Kombat (2011), on Xbox 360 and PC, in Practice Mode the displayed inputs showed the default mapping, even if you remapped.

Basically for me, I don't really care what displays, so long as I can remap as I need the layout to be 2, 3, 1, 4, or on a 360 pad, Y, A, X, B if that makes sense.

The weird thing though, is that I had mapped my controller buttons when I downloaded the first playable package. It's as if one of the packages kills that option.

I had put the buttons the way I wanted to, expect I didn't see the negative edge option, and I needed that turned off. Fortunately, you can use the keyboard to enter control input, no problem when you do that, cause you get a different menu for your keyboard, and you can turn off those options there and it will affect controller as well.

If you're looking to change your controller input, best download the first package, and try to do this immediately before you download anything else.

By the way, I can't check on my achievements in the steam window, I can only see the achievements on the store page with community percentage unlock. Is that just me?

Man not being able to change controls is literally sucking 95% of the enjoyment and hype I had for this game. We better get a fix for this quick CTD is completely unacceptable.

Crashing when changing controls and trying to get online. Terrible. This has to be one of the worst pc ports I have ever purchased. Hopefully they are quick to patch.

I reeeeeallly hope they fix the optimization issues over the next few days it's gotten a little better after a few periodic steam restarts but I drop frames on the sky temple map. Loving the story mode though on a positive note.

I think this game is just poorly optimized in general. I have a 3 year old Macbook Pro, but no way should this game be capping out 24-30 fps in 800 x 600 with EVERYTHING turned off.

has anyone noticed after the fixes that there's no transition between you selecting a character and the loading screen anymore?
Those little transitions while facing each other, then the loading screen shows up until the fight begins...
I saw many today earlier.

Not sure where you guys are experiencing problems. Just finished all my downloads and it works perfectly.

Game is looking sexy as fuck. Just be sure to disable DoF. Why is DoF still a thing?

Good to hear, they must have fixed something. About to hop on now. Don't know how much energy I have though... It's 1 am, I've worked all day, and I've offficially crashed from all the caffeine I've consumed.... lol

So now that the game is working and all, am I the only one noticing how awful the optimization is? I'm running a Radeon R9 290, 8GB RAM, and an i5-2500k, and I am not getting close to solid 60fps at all. I tried turning down different settings, and they seem to have no affect on fps gains, whether maxed or at zero. I turned everything down to the minimum-most settings, and I feel like it is only slightly better. What is the deal here?

I just gave story mode a go. I have i7 960 3.2ghz hd 6870 12gb ram. I get 60fps most of the time, However i agree the optimization seems pretty bad. Any xray that happens will crash my game Certain particle effects seem to cause it to crash too.

I played training for 2 hours without much crashing and 1 online match which crashed after the match on the victory screen.

My system isn't the best. I could use a few upgrades sure. The 6870 was given to me when my gtx470 bricked. I couldn't get a stable fps at first with the settings that i wanted. shadow detail is off seemed to help with my fps but the crashes were still happening semi-frequently. I am currently trying to turn down the particle density to see if that will help stop the crashes. I also overclocked this free 6870 a tad and i might bump it up a bit more since it is stable from what i can tell.

I'm sure some things could have been done to prevent these kinds of crashes related to optimization..I waited how long for the game to just be unlocked and now, when it's not crashing, it looks fucking amazing. Then rain xrays me and i have to fight him AGAIN haha fuck...


I'm happy to just be playing though after everything us PC players have been through these past cpl days.

yes i saw your post here and what you are saying is true. Most people are probably like me and either happy to be playing and not reading tym as much anymore, OR having optimization/crash/download issues and are too busy to worrying about everything else.

But the intros on PC currently they just face each other then it instantly goes to loading screen instead of watching them walk away.
I like to think it's just because PC's are so much faster than consoles and most ppl have ssd's that the walk away part on character select screen gets cut off because the game is already loaded and ready to start. haha.
