General/Other - Liu Kang input system hinders Kang: iaFB issues

[RM_Gamer]

This game is horrible when it comes to reading bf inputs. If the game registers your iafb as u u+b f1, the fb won't come out. However, if you do u u+b b f1, the fb will come out. Seems like this game doesn't recognize diagonal inputs. Anybody else have issues doing iafb consitently? I have input shortcuts on but it's still a bitch

Yeah I've noticed that. I used to be able to bang em out with mk9 kang, now I can barely do 1

Yea mk9 was easy and consistent. Just press ub and slide your fingers to press forward. Now I have to do a circular motion on the D pad. The problem with doing circular motions for iafb is that the game might register an ub or uf input

They removed that shortcut in Injustice and carried it over to MK X.
It took some time getting used to, but I have no real issues with it.

I just roll the U B F 1 motion piano-style and it lets me get them out pretty quickly. His recovery on it is still ass as long as it isn't mid-combo, but it's pretty easy once you have the muscle memory down. Granted, I'm on a hitbox which makes it not take too much work.
