Care to elaborate? I bought the game (I live in Italy, not many people play fighting games offline here...), the game claimed it had online but I refuse to call it such (at the beginning I thought it was just my shitty connection but I've tested it on MUCH better ones and it still is unplayable). Have I no right to be angry? Should I just be grateful because they are implementing a feature the game should have had 9 months ago??It's posts like this that make me feel good we are MKs smallest fan base.
Those questions are loaded, in context.Care to elaborate?

Tragically, the butthurt are blind to reason. I never said the netplay wasn't an issue, i never said you have no right to be upset, I never said this wasn't overdue.Care to elaborate?

I think the fact that they successfully went through two ESL seasons proves that it wasn't broken and unplayable, just bad.the game claimed it had online but I refuse to call it such
The major concern is not that MKX can't do good online matches, but that if your set up is anything less than optimal (which it isn't, in most territories outside the us) it cannot compensate. People with shit connections get "good" games all the time in other games. In MKX, they get a big fat dick in their mouth.I think the fact that they successfully went through two ESL seasons proves that it wasn't broken and unplayable, just bad.
Whether or not that is a bad thing is entirely subjective.they get a big fat dick in their mouth.
I'm all for the occasional mouth dicking but I feel under the circumstances a little foreplay is warranted.Whether or not that is a bad thing is entirely subjective.
you are right and wrong, cause they said you can't fix the netcode itself for the game, thats why they are making a new engine for the beta, thats why only 4 are playable. its huge work for nrs, so probs to them <3That's weird... I could of sworn that certain community members stated several times that it was not technically possible to change the netcode on an already produced game. That some people were very adamant about their programming knowledge and expertise on the subject. I had thought that they were misinformed uneducated statements, or perhaps just blatant lies in order to look "smart". Maybe I just imagined it, that couldn't of actually happened... or did it?
I'm just dead nowthats why they are making a new engine for the beta
