I sympathize with you OP, and would've liked to help, but me and my buddies uninstalled the game over two weeks ago and there is no chance I'm DLing it again, as I don't really care anymore. I'm done with WB and NRS, personally, and it's clear PC is left for dead.
On top, as someone else said, the game spiking only benefits WB/NRS, so I'm not gonna do that. I feel for you guys who still hold on hope, but any remaining hope for the PC version is pretty dead at this point.
Just keep putting extra bucks down on it and you'll have it in no time. I didn't really have the extra coin to spend on a Ps4, but SFV is only coming out on PS4 - so now I have one.
I bought my X1 by putting money down on it every time I walked into Gamestop rather than buying a 360 game. $20, .... $40 there ... the money was there in no time.
That's easy to say for you when you're not in that situation, though. There's literally no way it's worth it for anyone in that situation to do what you're suggesting. Not only is it incredibly dumb to shell out console/PC money for only one game (unless it's a Souls game,) it'll take him ~3 months if he saves all he earns. It's unlikely MKX will even retain enough of its lifespan at that point to be worth investing all this effort for (not that I think it's worth all this simply for MKX in the first place.)
I also think it's silly that if a dev fucks you over after you give them ~$70 your instant reaction/solution is to give them 5x the money right after. No wonder they do this sort of stuff. If only XB1 gets KP3 and Enhanced Online Cross-Platform Play, will you simply just buy the XB1 and think it's fine? You've easily convinced me you are an overprivileged snob (and this is even coming from a resident of Norway!) I even find your suggestion ignorant and borderline insulting.
I have no problem avoiding every WB and NRS product in the future out of principle. In my last ~15 years of PC gaming, this is the only time I've put any company on a personal blacklist. I've never felt this intentionally screwed over by a dev before, and especially not this dishonestly/shadily.
edit: this is likely my last post on the forums, it's already been 1.5 weeks since last i checked in. i'd just like to thank everyone for at least trying to do something about PC, but i simply don't think there's a big enough number of voices or activity.
edit: anyways, thanks for everything, guys. hope i see you pc guys on other games in the future. don't think i'll post much more and i barely visit anymore as there's nothing more for me here.
