For some clarity;
I've had players begging us to use the patch for a solid week now. It fixes important bugs, stops the Cyborg block infinite. We didn't want to update at this time, but as it turns out our systems will be returning from additional tournaments patched, we can't revert and we are pretty much stuck in this position now. Its either this or the pre-day 1 no patch version. This is what happens when you compete in a "living" game from week to week. Sometimes your character get nerfed. I'm a player too, remember, so I know how much that sucks, but you need to understand that we are doing our best to support this game given the circumstances we are in. Please don't cut us down for trying.
Stage selection - I agree its not great this way at all. That said, we've talked to MANY of you and you all have different ideas as to what the rules actually should be. Its given me no direction, and has lead me to believe that choosing one man's rules over another's will just cause confusion during the tournament for most players as, lets face it, most don't bother to even read the rules.
If you guys had something standard most of you agreed on at this point, it would be easy to accommodate.
Edit - I wanted to add to this for additional clarity; I think we can all agree that button config works pretty damn well in Injustice. Its the "good" kind, you can do it on character select... but the game has been out for how long now and I'm still watching players on streams struggle to setup their buttons and then spend minutes testing them in game, even though the button config IS a test in and of itself. Seeing stuff like this doesn't give me confidence that if we implement a meta set of stage selection rules that people will be able to follow along very well.
