Win At All Cost
This next patch will render our PC's completely inoperable until you download the 60 gig patch thats supposed to fix this one.

Oh, and just be warned your update for Install 29 is 10.8 gigs. If you needed more proof that HVS are a bunch of clowns, their idea of patching is "download the entire updated game again".
 
You are 100% correct! On the surface, the patch did absolutely nothing. Hope it at the very least fixes something, like 20 gigs worth of crashes and instability.
Yeah it wasn't a patch. Its a glitch with Steam thats been reported by a bunch of people for a bunch of different games. Basically just reinstalls the entire game. The version number is the exact same, and no new patch is coming until June 2nd with Tanya
 
Awesome. This is a lot of fun. If I may suggest something, would be possible to create a feature to freeze frame? Like a hotkey that when pressed the game "pause" but you still fly around... maybe even a "next frame" key as well. That is something the camera hack for SF4 has and its really cool to enable you to take crazy action screenshots. Thanks for the mod anyway. It's fantastic already as it is.
Cheers
 
So the PC version of Mortal Kombat X has yet another widespread, game breaking bug. Shocking I know. Everytime I boot up Steam the game just reinstalls itself, and I cant play online or with any of my main characters in training until the entire reinstall finishes. I've heard this actually might be a Steam problem and not a High Voltage/NRS problem, but I dont really care whose fault it is, I just want a solution.

Obviously having a huge game like MKX reinstall every time I boot up isnt ideal. Uninstalling the game and never playing again wouldnt really my preference either. I absolutely love the gameplay itself and I have fun every time I boot it up. But the PC port has been a catastrophe from day 1. Its beyond embarrassing.

Does anyone have a solution for this? Or has anyone else run into the same reinstall loop? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can't you guys just mod it or do some magic to where it runs perfectly with no problems, ever? Because master race?

On-topic: This may be the worst port I've witnessed of any game in recent memory. Sorry, guys.>.<

I had this problem too over the last 2 days, and here's what seemed to fix it:
  1. Completely uninstall your local MKX copy.
    1. Right click on Mortal Kombat X in Steam, and click "delete local data."
    2. Delete the local MKX user data folder (<steam-folder>/userdata/<user-id>/307780).
    3. Delete the (<steam-folder>/steamapps/common/MK10) folder.
    4. Empty the Recycle Bin.
  2. Exit Steam completely (right click and exit from the Windows tray).
  3. Reopen Steam.
  4. Reinstall MKX.
One telltale sign that something different was happening was that Steam said it was downloading 32 GB at once instead of each install package separately in 1-4 GB chunks. The app page will still show Mortal Kombat Install Part 01-29, though, so don't worry about that.

Hope this helps!

Don't tease. If we had NRS dev tools, the outcome would probably kill console play outside of tournaments, and MK9 would get that final patch it needed. Problem is, WB isn't about to give someone else reign over their intellectual property when it may cost them a little money in the end.


You must have missed the USFIV port to PS4. If that company isn't bankrupt by now, then capitalism has failed us all.
