In all seriousness, aren't NRS not responsible for the port? Was it not handle by another developer? If so, Warner Bros. maybe the ones in need of contacting, correct me if I'm wrong.

Going to play SF5 and GG and hope that even though we don't get to test it that maybe it will be implemented sometime in the future. It's disappointing cause I do want to play the game, but thankfully other good fighting games are coming out so I honestly don't care much anymore. KI, UNIB, GG and SF5 are going to be way more than enough to entertain me. NRS had kinda already killed any hope I had with the current state of the game. I got excited when I heard the GGPO news because of the potential revival of online play and perhaps their reputation, then instantly got reminded how little they care about PC, so it died very very quickly. On the positive side, maybe Injustice 2 will have good netcode and be decent on PC?

Let me start by saying I'm a PC gamer, and have been since 1997.

Quit fucking buying games on PC! The game developers are going to continually shit all over you. PC gaming is slowly dying and they know this. They just want to squeeze every last penny from it before they completely move on. YOU as a consumer should understand this by now as it's been happening for years. You cant fight the future, you just have to adapt.

If you want to use a keyboard and mouse, buy a XIM4 and move on. I use it for Battlefront and have never been happier.

That's utter nonsense. PC gaming is actually growing with more console only games coming to PC, developers are taking it more seriously (except for NRS).
 
I'm a PC player and while it had a bad launch it is frickn awesome now and in many ways I feel it is superior to the console versions.

That being said.... excluding PC from the beta is the ONLY correct decision by NRS.

PC is extremely hard to develop for, due to the huge range of hardware and on top of that there is actual porting that needs to be done. It makes all the sense in the world for the drastic changes to be sorted out on console and then ported to PC.

I have zero doubt the PC port will come with KP2 and the netcode update... but NRS is making the correct choice for the community in doing console first.

I don't care about PC not getting the beta testing and I understand it.

What I don't like is them completely ignoring it instead of just a quick mention on the FAQ page for example, and not responding to people asking about the PC version.

lol. I don't want to feed you too much troll food but PC gaming is not dying. Dota 2 has 12 million players, CSGo, Civ5, Blizzard titles. And there are good fighting games on the platform ghost girls, GGXrd, etc. The winners of last years Dota 2 international took home 7 million dollars. Something tells me you don't spend most of your time playing games on PC.

I just got a XIM4 myself like 2 weeks ago. One of the best purchases I've made for gaming. PC is a wasteland for multiplayer on most triple A titles. I love KB+M and hate controller so I never switched before this, but now that I have I am so glad as the player base on PS4 is so ridiculously larger. If you are playing multiplayer games on PC for anything that's also on console you are missing out in most cases.
 
Given they dropped patch support for the WiiU version of Injustice for the same reason, I don't see how it would be surprising if they did the same for Microsoft Windows in MKX.

nope, we should definitely keep blowing up boon and tyler about this. Since they've always been so responsive on PC port matters in the past.

This mean you don't like me?
God damn, can y'all wait until KP2 is out for anybody before we start with the pitchforks?




Trufenix = 7 characters
Laos_boy = 7 characters

Fenix = Phoenix = Phoenix Arizona.

Phoenix Arizona = West = Texas.

Laos is from Texas.

y = mx + b

y= yall

yall = mx + b

If x is the 7 characters,

yall = m7 + b

b in MKX is back. As in bf2 being back forward 2.

Back on the number line is negative.

m7 + -b = m7 minus 1.

yall = m6.

Kitana = 6 characters.

M= mournful.

Mournful Kitana = Laos Boy's main.

LAOS BOY = TRUFENIX HIDEY CONFIRMED!


@Laos_boy You've been figured out, you son of a bitch! Bet 'yall' didn't see THAT coming didja?!

@Espio infract away. You can thank me via PM.

Is that sarcasm? What do you expect me to do? Go talk to some random twitter account for WB games, a company responsible for 5 bazillion games and gets probably more tweets in an hour than I've tweeted in my entire life, or try to contact the studio directly responsible for making the game and its community managers who are supposed to be talking to us?

I like you but GTFO with that passive aggressive bullshit.

The player base alone is enough to show you where customer loyalties lie: Back in November, Black Ops 3 average players playing peaked at 60,000 for PC, while PS4 at the same time peaked at 800,000. Battlefront currently peaks at 100,000 users on PS4 while PC has 11,000.

The numbers are very telling. Now add in the crazy amount of hackers, and the cost to build a gaming rig...why the fuck do you think kids go with consoles?

YES! After having such great success with XIM4, I will probably never buy another shooter on PC. Feels like home.

You do what you want. I just don't see the point. And you can call me passive aggressive for trolling up your thread but really neither of us is accomplishing anything. This is not the first itme this has happened. 18 months ago it was tell us about the pc port. A year ago it was tell us about goro. 9 months ago it was tell us about old gen port. 6 months ago it was when is pc getting dlc/patched. 3 months ago it was tell us about kp2. Now its tell us why your trailers don't have steam logos.

These are not answers Boon, Edwards, Paolo, or ANYBODY on this forum are qualified or capable of answering. WB will announce answer it when they are good and ready and there's not one thing you or I or anyone here can do to change that.

Alrighty, well let me elaborate a bit on my previous post.

Any cross platform title is more likely to be better on console, with better support, and a bigger player base. PC versions seem to be the last fucking thing the developers care about in those instances.

As for the other games you listed, which were designed to be played on nothing but PC ( you forgot LoL)...of course they have big numbers. They're great games. What do you suppose would have happened if they were all cross platform? Do you think the majority of players would have picked up the titles on PC?

Tell that to the MOBA (million dollar tournaments), RTS, and MMORPG markets. Good luck
I'm not arguing the interest. I think the big tournaments are cool as shit. I love watching when I get the chance, but if PC gaming is such a large market, why are so many games ported over?

... wtf? I guess rather than say it's dying, just say developers for multi-platforms have publishers that don't care. Most devs take pride in their work, and hardly ever want to push out a piece of trash or dissappoint their fans. But publishers, they'll push something optimized for the console masses, then PC gets leftovers. Not all times its like this though.
