Yeah, it really is a shame, but the Online quality (or lack thereof) would have hurt the PC version regardless since there's less hardcore players on that platform for fighters.

I think the online could be overlooked because there are plenty of people who play this game online just cause they like MK. I think the amount of PC fighting game casuals who picked up MK and would've stayed is pretty huge. Especially if we directed them to sites like this one. But now we'll never know . . .

It would have also helped the PC community if Pig was able to use his damn PC version during his last Red Hot Sunday Night Stream.

I wasn't around when it happened but it sounds like he had actually fixable problems because it wasn't the crappy port stuff we were dealing with on day 1. I wish he'd take some time and try to fix it but he doesn't seem like the type to. I think @cR slacked is starting a similar thing for PC players though. I think someone is willing to stream it too.

While I personally haven't tried the other versions, from people I know who have I'd say yes.

The major difference is the PC version searches world wide; no region locked, which can sometimes make things seem worse.

Also variable performance can be an issue. Lots of people don't seem to know that the game has to run at 60 FPS rock solid to play correctly. So lots of people have their video settings too high for their machines. You can pretty much tell when you're running sets with someone switching stages, and then you'll hit damn jungle and you get a slide show on the right side of the stage.

I've have MKx for PS4 and PC and there isn't much of a difference. For me PS4 runs better just because my PC isn't top notch and this port isn't great. But if I play someone who should have optimal conditions to play online I see no difference between systems.

I only own the game on PC, but yesterday I played the game on a friends PS4 and found only 50 people in the rooms at around 9:00pm. Is the server usually always this dead on PS4?

It's too soon to get cocky.
I only have PC version, no consoles whatsoever. I've played the PS4 port once when I rented it for an hour. The matches were lagless, only one session ended prematurely due to horrible lag.

This is my first MK online game (MK9 was first but never played online as I bought it a few months ago on discount lol), and it sucks the game has so many issues for being a klassic. The game was horrible upon launch but has gotten better with weekly patches. IDK if I ever really want to get a console 'cuz PC always has better graphics.

I just hope one day NRS / WB can produce quality games both offline and online. Wishful thinking though...

I'm lovin' Q-LOC's patches now. I'm now able to play with all settings on Ultra at 1080p at 60fps. I'm using an R9 280x DirectCU II card by the way.

This has been the most demanding PC fighting game I've played so far. Hopefully Street Fighter V won't be as demanding as MKX.

Online play still sucks, tho. Anybody here using DS3 instead of Xbox 360 pads for the PC? (I hate using sticks for MK or any other Netherrealm games for that matter), it's hard to get used to the DS3 (but it plays better becuz of the D-Pad) since our tournaments here in our country are done on PS4s.

I use a Ps2 controller for PC play. Using an Xtokki converter. Works very well.

I used to use a ps3 controller but i swapped to be able to play on xbox360 using a playstation controller. Way better Dpad

The best mod for Mortal Kombat X!!!!

By the way... when the next update comes? they patched the game again

Unfortunately they are patching weekly, so it would be a lot of work for me to keep up with them. Once they stop patching so frequently, the mod will definitely get updated. I'll tag you whenever I update it.

Amazing! This shows how much goes into the cinematic of each fatality, how the lights and poses are set up in different ways for every different angle that it goes through, really nice. If this can be used in story more, there could be some pretty awesome screenshots to capture.

i understand man thanks for the reply.... i wish there was a way to shut down the uptades for MKX on steam.. that way the mod would last longer

Has anyone had very significant performance drops after the last few patches?
My machine used to be able to run the game at 60fps easily at 1080p, but I booted it up again today and it's completely unplayable even with everything off at really low resolutions.

Weird, i still have no problem running it at 4K with constant 60 fps, everything maxed out.

Check your GPU and CPU usage while playing, you can use for example MSI Afterburner to do that.

I haven't messed with the settings since I got the game to run fine. What's the best way to check if I'm even getting 60fps. The game feels like it's running at that but I just want to make sure. I've been playing on playstation too and nothing feels off unless i'm online.

Are there 269 people who play MKx on PC?

Whens the last time you played? We haven't had a patch in over 2 weeks.
