Let's talk: MKX on PC

Juxtapose

Master
I use a stick, so I would definitely say it's the game. I may be making this up in my mind, but I wasn't dropping any combos on the PS4, where on the PC version there were some considerable hiccups. The PC version never really lagged for me, but my inputs weren't consistent and I just blamed it on my abilities. Not an issue on PS4 version.
Interesting. Offline, I take it?

Normalize grab immunity.
So I've noticed that whenever I crash in training mode, it usually happens when I get really repetitive. Anytime I do something over and over again to practice timing or spacing it crashes. I don't know if doing quick repetitive inputs is the cause or if it's just coincidence. Just figured I put my observation here.

For any interested, I just filed a bug report with WBIE on the Training Crash.

Also, just thought of something: This patch changed replay recording and gave an option to turn it on and off.

Has anyone tried turning it off, and then going to training? See if it still crashes.

I know it doesn't "record" training sessions, but you never know.

It's all so very confusing.
So we are still massively behind on patchs..

Oh well, I'm out of mkx folks. I'll drop in every few weeks to check on things, but unless drsstoc changes come around shrug

As I understand it, no, we are not massively behind.

We are one patch behind I think, and said patch has been out on consoles for less than a week.

If we follow the last trend with the Tanya Patch and balance changes, we should get it tomorrow, but we'll see.

I was under the impression nthat that Patch had been out a.lot longer than a week. Obviously I was wrong, so we aren't as bad as I thought.. If we keep pairity with consoles with a week or so delay that's not that bad,

But the bugs and performance issues remain.

I didn't mean to sound whiney and dramatic, and I am.still interested in mkx and want to really enjoy the game, but with the very weak. Buggy and sporadic structure (or lack of) to the game right now, I feel like I might be better off just setting it aside and checking back occasionally , waiting for the game to hit its stride on pc

With us only actually being a week behind though, I'll def give it some time and see how mkx runs and such before making a definate decision.

Your mothers main.
Any NA players wanna do some Predator mirrors later today? Since practice mode is not working I would like to get some time in with him and just mess around a bit. I have a good wired connection and am always looking for new people to play.

No worries; most everyone is frustrated overall with the port for obvious reasons.

But yeah, a week isn't bad actually, so long as it remains roughly around that point. My only concern with the Jul. 2nd patch is I heard it contained prep for Tremor. If so, and the rumour that these patches aren't released because they don't want PC players cracking the characters before they are available is true, we might have to wait a bit.

Of course, this is all speculation. All we know is we're presently one balance patch behind, and more patches for the game are planned (since Tremor is still to come).

Interestingly I've been watching a video from GamerBlake since he picked up Kitana, uploaded on the 6th, and it seems walk outs are missing there too.

I believe this is the Xbox One, and it's online matches.

Perhaps the walk out animations aren't "missing" from the PC version then.

The smart stuff!
Guys, have you tried this affinity workaround that prevents overloading 2 CPUs? I do it all the time, and I have no problems with freezing. I'm not certain if that's the case, though. Could be that I just got lucky with the patch.

So I must confirm that, to my dismay, the PS4 version is just leaps and bounds better than the PC version. Not only in patches, graphics, available features, and players, but also in actual inputs. I haven't played this well at MKX in... forever.

Since there's several other PS4 games I'm looking into, this purchase was very justifiable. And I got it for 400$ tax in.
graphic are way better on pc. Everything else is trash

You're one of the lucky ones, I guess. And before you go on the "your PC is probably trash" tangent, I'll save you the embarrassment by telling you that it isn't. Graphics are still optimized perfectly for PS4 and it shows. Graphics are definitely not "way better" on PC, they are barely at parity if you are extremely lucky (and I mean lucky, as I've seen many people with GTX 970s/980s that can't run the game correctly).

Hey Guys,

Posted this in another thread and was pointed to this thread. I have not been receiving any Profile or Faction points while playing online, I only receive War Points. Does anyone know what is up with this? It still happens after a 24 hour break, I don't play for hours everyday.

Also I have had zero problems with running this on my mid range build FX6350 @4.5GHz, 8GB RAM @2133MHz, XFX 7950 Ghost Black Edition. Runs maxed out at 1080p, using Vsync 76FPS stable.

Thanks.

First of all for MOST players game runs ok. Obviously those idk 100 maybe even 500 who has problems are the loudest on Steam forums but that doesn't change the fact that for most PC owners it works more or less ok.

As for graphics don't kid yourself. MK X at 4K with FXAA on PC looks way better then on PS4 or X1 for that matter. Im playing at those settings and i also have PS4 and in terms of graphics there isn't really much to compare here.

And just to be clear - yes, PC port kinda suck, HVS sucks even more but if it goes about the graphics MK X on PC >>> PS4/X1.

im talking strictly on a visual aspect not performance. PC's will almost always have better graphics than consoles. Whether they are optimal for game play, that is a different discussion. That's something that is addressed in the porting of the game; in which MKX's PC port is shit.

And yes, to reiterate again, they are way better even if you dont have a GTX 970/980. I dont have one still and it blows PS4 graphics out of the water.

Could you try not disrespecting someone else because you expect an insult. Everyone isnt without manners or respect.

I don't know if this is relevant since a new patch/DLC has been released, but recently when I tried loading the DeadWoods stage, the camera mod wasn't working for me and the game would even close/crash. Not sure if it was a problem on my end or if other people got this too.

Anyways, great mod dude!
