Invastion Mode : Season 2 Chat

I’ll leave Invasions being a dogshit mode/the worst mode ever invented by NRS out of this thread.

On topic, I like the Nitara skin. It’s quality. Wish she had an eyepatch though. Also can’t stand Megan Fox’s voice acting, which like you, almost puts me off playing her.

NRS gotta get that Z list celebrity clout though instead of hiring some top VO talent (I guarantee not one person on this planet bought MK1 simply because Megan Fox is in it. Fact)
 
As someone that enjoys invasion mode I wanted to have a new place to talk about it besides the hate thread.



Final Boss Skin.... looks dope AF.

I really like Nitara, but the voice is so hard on the ears I just can't seem to get into her! lol. Real shame.
I also enjoy Invasions, and don't find it anywhere near the "grind" that people make it out to be. Currently I'm about 65% of the way through the second Mesa.

The Nitara skin, is it her Order of Darkness skin, or is that her "Deadly Alliance" skin?
 
I think Invasions is a fun diversion, and season 2 is better so far. I can at least practice combos this time around because the opponents aren't armored and I don't have a million rockets and portals interrupting me. I do wish that playing Invasions taught you do be better at the game though. Like some match where you only do damage by punishing an unsafe string or something like that.

Yeah Season 2 is even better than the 1st one, which is saying a lot. Super fun mode.

Not sure.... I haven't made it through it all yet.... I just saw it linked.

Having to grind through every Mesa again to get to the new content Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck my dick. Invasions is dead as far as I'm concerned. No chance in hell I'm grinding that mode again
let us enjoy things.... we do not all have to have the same taste.... there is a gigantic other thread to bitch and moan and whine.. let the people that like it have a place as well without all the vitriol

I do think the agility mechanic is kind interesting, where they slow down some of the opponents attacks. Maybe not perfect for noobs but I think it helps you learn the reactions when you get to see the move be slower

The removal of the armor has helped save this mode and changed it entirely. As least you can practice combos and play with other characters in a meaningful way. Before you would just have to spam a couple of moves every encounter.

This would really be awesome and make the mode more useful.
 
Removing the majority of armored opponents and the increased run speed have definitely made the slog of getting through the season much easier. I'm on my third Mesa already after a few hours of play. Took me a whole week to get through last season. Here's some klues I've been able to figure out so far and how I unlocked them.

Edit: I also like how Relics are actually interesting and have real use to them now.

(Fire Temple) BODY BLENDER = Kenshi's blender Fatality
(Fire Temple) SPLISH SPLASH = Rain's 112 Brutality
(Sun Do) KRAZY BATSHIT = Nitara's KomBAT Fatality
(Sun Do) HOME RUN = Darrius Kameo Fatality
(Living Forest) BESOS (no clue what that spells) = Sonya Kameo Fatality
(Living Forest) SPICY KETCHUP = Sektor's Flamethrower Kameo Brutality

So it looks like I kept the War Horn talisman from Titan Baraka but only that one, did they say how the carry over worked for Talismans?

If you have the char mastered fully, the invasion boss skin also gets gold and silver palettes unlocked.

Okay after actually sinking more time into season 2 I’ve gotta say I’m enjoying it much more. It’s still not a super great mode but they’re heading in the right direction with some changes so far. I mean the simple fact is I’m enjoying it a bit now and not constantly feeling pissed/disappointed when I play it, so that’s something lol

How do you do that survival task with the big exploding demons running at you... there are things on the floor as well, but hitting them hurts you when then explode and the task says to destroy demons?

Are we supposed to just jump and avoid them?

i do like this skin. I actually like this much better than the default and I do think Megan Fox probably could have done a better voice with proper direction from the Voice Talent director or at least some modulation. Her beehive top looks like Circe from Wonder Woman or like bumble bees are going to fly out of it but it is similar to her og outfit.
