PC/Steam Version - Performance, Technical and General Discussion Thread

Raider

I am making this thread for us PC players to discuss everything related to the PC version of the game.
Game is unlocking on Steam in 3 days, so it would be nice to have separated thread for the PC version just like we had one for MKX. You can talk about anything and everything that you wish, technical issues, bugs, performance, post your Steam ID so we can add each other... etc.

Some general info about the PC version:

-System Requirements:

14092

-Pre-load is live on Steam and it's around 64GB.
-Game is using Denuvo "DRM".
-We still don't have any PC gameplay or specific info about the PC version.
 
I'm hoping they have resolution scaling. I have a 4K monitor and would love for the HUD to stay rendered at that resolution, but not quite sure if my 2080 could handle absolutely everything at native 4K/locked 60fps.
 
Wow ppl have there codes alrdy..Ordered from newegg and no code yet..strange..I think this game will run smooth as hell, just like MKX is now.

Your circumstances are dire!
Gonna start my preload tomorrow as well. I think it's gonna be in a good state as well, probably a few bugs here and there but I'm so excited!:)
My steam id goes as following: steamcommunity.com/id/John_NX/ but I'm in Europe.

I'm wondering if pre-load + unpack will be faster than just downloading the game on release... I download at around 102 MB/s but also have an SSD that I'll be unpacking it to so I'm not sure which one will take longer.

Gonna have my roommate boot the game up for me since I get off at 10 PM, which is right when it becomes available. Hopefully it's all booted up when I get home since I want to play all night on release.

Just activated my Premium Edition on Steam. But we still have around 12 hours of waiting. :/
I am hoping for the best when it comes to the port and performance.

Finally available on Steam. But for me it's still unpacking. :/
Same, will take a while for it to be done. Overall maybe more then a hour on my side. More then halfway trough, still faster then to download from scratch for me which took hours.
 
Same, looks like it's unpacking for me as it's at 99% still, despite preloading yesterday. Is there anyway to check more detailed progress? I don't see a bar or anything?

Also, if you're using an nVidia card, they released new drivers a few hours ago that officially support Mortal Kombat 11. The game isn't appearing in GeForce Experience yet, though I assume that's simply because it's still unpacking.

Ok, my first impressions after just 30 minutes of playing:

-Game runs great for me.
-No crashes so far.
-It looks amazing but not much better compared to Injustice 2 (which already looked great btw.)
-I think that there is weird, ugly Film Grain and it can't be turned off in the settings.
-Motion blur is just too much. Turned it off instantly.
-Audio is lower than it should be, just like Injustice 2 when it was released on PC.

Overall i am more than happy so far.

That's good to hear about the performance! Did you happen to have random CTDs with Injustice 2 on PC? I primarily played it on console but I picked up the PC version and while it ran great, it would randomly CTD without any error or anything in Windows event logs. I'm hoping that's not going to happen with MK11.

What kind of hardware are you running? Also, are you running with vsync on?

Yes, i had them in Injustice 2. It started happening after one of the updates. But i also had different GPU during Injustice 2.

So far no crashes, but i am reading a lot of players are reporting that the game is crashing for them.

Cool. I've got a somewhat similar setup.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed I don't get any crashes. Won't be able to unpack or redownload since I'm still at work for another couple of hours :(

"Somewhat similar setup"... lol, thanks for the laughs.

PC doesn't seem to be running on the newest patch, the frame data changes that were implemented on consoles today are not on PC.

So I guess QLOC is responsible for the patches? Does that mean they'll be pushing the dynamic changes (like the Towers and Krypt changes) as well? I wonder how much lag there will be in terms of fixes/changes between Xbox/PS and PC (and Switch).
