I was playing yesterday. Every one had bad ping according the the 4 green dot in Join Room. I was disconnected lots o time. It was really painful. The lag bug me so much. I had a record of 187-21 in tag. Now im at 207-37 because of the lag.

Also the MAJOR issue is that you cannot select new DLC character if the oppenent dont have it. Its think really stupid. ITs a patch, thay should have the programation in there game to be able to see it, but not play it. I think more people would buy the DLC if they are getting owned by a skarlet or rain but not being able to play it.

What you think guys ?

I found that the Skarlet Compatibility Pack ... a free download on xbox live, give acces to Cyrax and Sektor skins and it also giv the player the opotunity to fight againts skarlet. If you dont have this pack, skarlet wont be available for the people who own it. I think this (Skarlet Compatibility Pack) should be download automaticly. Why should we pay for exra character if we cannot use then all the time online ?
Is there a official mk forum where I can give this suggestion to the conceptor ?

I think its even more silly to care what your online record is. Why? because of the complaints you have. Online has never mattered, they are casuals. thats it.

But trust me, NRS knows about these issues and are working to fix the issues the best they can.

The main reason the packs aren't yet mandatory is that not everyone has the up to 85 or so megs to download the compatibility packs (which will end up being a few hundred megs after a few dlc characters. There are a lot of Xbox users who own "arcade" or "core" units along with people with full 20gig or just broken harddrives.

This should get better in a few days as more word spreads about the "hey, you should go get the FREE comparability pack with free alts skins" and the only people left without it are ones that can't save it.

The in game dlc available now banners before the main menu will work better with Kenshi and so on. Some problems with Skarlet's have been identified and they aren't showing up for some people who don't have them installed.

If it's still a problem after that, it will be revisited.

No but seriously, he is right. I cant even pick my costumes online, dude.

And the compatibility pack should be a forced download.

If its not important or silly, can you explain me why they keep track of you record then ? If its casual, there should be a way to reset the stats.
