MKX XL Patch 1.12 is Now Live on PSN & XBL

[SaltShaker]

Haha wow paulo.. I wish top players were the ones to do balance changes.. He has shown time and time again, he does not know How to balance for higher level gameplay.
A clear example is when he makes changes to characters to make certain links easier which were never hard to begin with

Fully agree. I'm playing right now with CyberSub in the lab just mind blown that this character was passed through like this, pulling out free drones with great recovery and continuing the combo, divekick with NO whiff recovery at all, godlike normal that goes half screen and is + on block with a drone and pops up on hit, Hardtoblockables, armor breaking setups, puddle freeze setups, etc etc 100, but Sektor was hammered in almost every viable category he had. Why? Because he would have been a likely top tier zoner? Could they not do slight tweaks like with Smoke (who also got buffs) instead of a hammer? I can't make sense of it. He's easily the weakest Borg, it's not even close.

I would pay an extra $20 if it helped top players work as a team balancing the game. This is ridiculous to say the least.

Yeppp. From +9 to -13. Leaves you right in their face for them to do their favorite combo on you. If Jacqui does her D3 at max range, Sektor does reversal, she can S1 punish. That's how close your -13 is. It's his only armored WU also. Still 15% no pop up.

Yep.

So let me get This straight, hes a zoning character and then they butcher his zoning. Then they go ahead and complétely destroy his only get off me move.... Very competentent balancing by paulo

That's not right...that just gives you 30 easy fatality tokens.

I got Kabuki Jo doing this code

Wait triborg is out already?

 

[Frank3nst3in]

I could be wrong, but probably not. :/

Thanks BTW any place were I can find the official patch notes??

 

[Desperdicio]

Does this patch include the EO? Sorry if this was said in the comments; I only checked the first page.

Online was bound to change. Invitation beta kept out noobs who use wireless from across their house with a signal strength of 10. Smfh all KOH matches I do will be with friends that I know have good internet. If I do a public KOH and el lag /wifi/ own loading torrents shows up and I see the lag going to leave the KOH room ,ale a private and invite those I trust that are not using Burger King / crappy wifi

I wish the beta stays open for those of us that just want to play good matches lol.....

 

[Matix218]

Anymore feedback from people who have the update regarding the quality of the online matches with the new netcode? Specifically people who had the beta to see how it compares?

 

[ChaosTheory]

Are the guys having negative experiences (compared to the beta) playing just anybody who shows up in Ranked or whatever? Is there a way to see the ping fluctuating to perhaps ID wifi users?

Exactly. That's one of my main issues. It's not even a launcher and his only armor (useless air charge armor doesn't count). The UpRocket is slow enough now that if they're standing already, on reaction they can run and cover more than half of the screen before you recover. Reminds me of ducking Balanced Kenshi Telefurry and running. If they were going to Nerf all of that his one arnor move shouldn't be full combo punishable with ease. Not with his design. It's turned into "amazing design and strong character, but still not better than Cyber Sub or Takeda" to "decent at best zoning and hope to get a chance to poke out of pressure when they get inside, non launching unsafe armor too risky, can't get up". Not gonna argue it should stay +9, but -13 is so extreme a Nerf that it doesn't take a Sonic Fox to see that.

Combined with the slower straight rockets, slower UpRockets, less damage overall, and huge EX Flame Nerf Sektor will be Mid tier at best. Tools are just not strong enough compared to the roster. While the other Borgs will run rampant and old characters were left super strong or got buffs lol. Pathetic.

No, I've had the game for a while though so I played both "MKXL patch" and I'm playing the "updated patch" version now.

You still have options to show ping numbers. So far connection has seemed as good as it did in the beta, even better actually

 

[Airvidal]

The practice stage has a new song, sounds pretty cool

Now that's what I want to hear!

 

[ChaosTheory]

Is that ping number constantly moving like real time?

Full disclosure, I don't know exactly how ping and all that shit works.

The experiences of the MKXL patch that I spoke of are with Rank and room lobbies. Yes they are "randoms" as you call it. The pings I'm dealing with are between 80-130. In the beta if I ran into this amount of ping the game had to no lag and barely noticeable The game is still playable. I'm just saying the online experience is not what I experienced in the beta. The lag is clearly noticeable vs the beta where it was almost unnoticeable.

Nrs has multiple high level players working there. How can you complain about a character that hasn't technically been released yet? And lbsh, if shinnok had a safe wakeup you would lose your mind lol.

You havent posted in a while. Did you realllly just lurk to then come out and talk crap to me Haha wow cowboy. And they make it seem like paulo has they final say in everything. And shinnok already has strong zoning and his armored wakeup leads to a full combo.

didn't they say in the kombat Kast that the online update was not coming out with the XL launch, though they were hoping it would?

They said it may or may not. But it made it.

So maybe sektor has strong zoning?

 

[Rathalos]

I haven't gotten a chance to play the actual release yet.

When you guys are talking about lag? Do you mean input delay or general rollback jitteryness?

You shouldn't be getting any inputdelay past the 3 frames of set delay.
Unless on really bad connections auto adjust now.

 

[Onilordasmodeus]

Hey guys!! Can somebody tell me if PC users are getting the patch?? I now we are not getting the characters but the new changes either??

PC isn't getting this patch. The PC version was done by a 3rd party, not NRS.

 

[Tweedy]

If you're having super laggy games every time, it's because your connection is bad. Nothing will fix a bad connection.
