I’ve had instances where I’ve been holding block and hit by mids, but I think that’s just a case of dropped inputs. Only happened against WiFi players...

I was surprised by how many WiFi players there really were out there, including lot of players with a reasonable amount of skill too. People who should know better, really. People who have made the effort shouldn’t be forced to play against people who haven’t. And as nice as the forced first...

With Kano, in ranked and tourney play, you’re mostly be up against Ripper as, right now, Dirtbag isn’t strong enough. Basically, beyond learning the punishes for each move, the thing to remember with Kano is that he has an option for every situation, but most of the time that’s all; one option...

All of Johnny’s mids will whiff on stand block

My issue with this is that NRS could defend this as intentional and not fix it. 16bit defended this very thing in MKX Just keep this in mind when we talk about hitbox/hurtbox fixes. There’s no guarantee we’ll get them

I went from being disappointed to loving it. Never played a Souls game, so it wasn’t that I didn’t like the changes from DS, but I was sold on the idea that success was built on mastering the game’s patterns and only that, and didn’t appreciate that it was designed with levelling up in mind...

I’ve got a lot of experience with SFV. Despite a few outliers, the game is very well balanced in its current iteration. I’ve found that most characters can find answers to most situations if labbed, and a lot of moves that seem overpowered have built in weaknesses. The issue is often that you...

I think the best you can hope for is something along the lines of Tekken 7 or SFV:AE, where the characters are divided into tiers, but the gaps between the tiers are much closer than other games. Both of those games have their top tiers, but there’s a wide variety of characters in tournaments...

I meant in this thread

I think onscreen icons are the answer to your second point. That could be tricky though, as they would need to be big enough to be discernible, whilst being discreet enough to not intrude with the game play. Or just have them clearly displayed on the load screen?

I don’t disagree. Like I said, I want custom variations for the depth they afford.

This I don’t disagree with. UMvC3 is a lot of fun, and I want MK11 to be as enjoyable in the long term. I believe custom variations are the key to that, and if certain combinations turn out to be broken, NRS have the option of balancing the point values of the moves to tone things down, rather...

I’m surprised that nobody has pointed this out yet, but UMvC3 doesn’t have a reputation as being all that well balanced. I want customs to be made tourney legal, and I believe that customisation could help to balance character out as different combinations could be used to counterpick the...

Yes, it’s tight. I don’t find F344 too bad, but 244 can be a problem at times. I find sliding my thumb from 2 to 4 helps with consistency

I’ve gotten the others occasionally, throw ones more often than the f43 one. They tend to come as a pleasant surprise mid match as I don’t always see the failed throw break notification. I had hoped that KB’s would be more strategic across the board, which seemed to be the case with the early...

No you don’t

Ok, so I’ve dicked around with Dirtbag, come up short, and then on a whim tested a couple of things with the custom moves. I now suspect that Molotov is meant to be combined with Bio Magnetic trap to be truly effective. BMT can be set up safely, prevents jumping and can be on the screen the same...

Do we have statements from the devs confirming this?

Does anybody know if there’s a way to decline all wi-fi connections in ranked? Current settings make it so that if it’s green bars then I’m forced to play, but of course green bars on WiFi means very little

If you cancel into Molotov from the move with the largest cancel window (I think it’s f2, with about 50 frames cancel window), it gives you around 20 frames before the move comes out. The only way I can see this being even remotely viable as a set up is if the opponent has absolutely no...
