Haha and now after watching the whole interview he didn't even bring it up. That dog knows his place in front of Master Boon!
Angsty Joe is the consummate reviewer to the casuals -- you could tell him that the 'proof' of the Earth being flat was DLC, and he'd buy it!
Honestly people expected it because it’s been a long time due again from requests. It may of been least played but it was still very fun and played. It was just very unbalanced on mk9. It has huge potential and many people want it back. Just because you don’t understand it, doesn’t mean it shouldn’t. (I also really enjoy the story mode!) But co-op is what’s keeps games alive for me and friends as versing each other gets abit boring. Will still play it for a while though!
It might've been played, but compared to other modes? I don't think anybody expected it besides the vocal minority of people who've been gunning for it for some reasons. The moment Ed Boon said it was the least played mode in Mortal Kombat 9, should've told people to stop getting their hopes up for it.
It’s really not a handful I’ve seen loads of requests and petitions, but you do you.
But where were the people who played it then?
There were plenty of people who played it, especially offline which Ed isn’t talking about. Not to mention online was exploited by unbalanced mess. Petitions,polls,threads also don’t lie sis xBut where were the people who played it then?
The numbers don't lie sis. That's on that.
Arguing isn't gonna change the fact that it's not in, or that those resources could go to much better uses that a wider audience of people would find enjoyable.
The time they would have spent trying to balance tag mode, can now go into balancing and tweaking 1v1 play. Which is clearly where their priorities lie, as it should, considering the importance of tournaments and so on.I’m not arguing I’m just stating it is very requested. And it’s no secret NRS focus on the pro comp scene more than anything, so I wouldn’t expect anything less. A side mode wouldn’t of hurt, keeping 1v1 as the focus again atleast offline has more to it for friends.Arguing isn't gonna change the fact that it's not in, or that those resources could go to much better uses that a wider audience of people would find enjoyable.
I'm not bashing tag mode, hon. I couldn't care less. But, if Ed says that they'd rather put those resources to something else then that's their decision and a good one at that.
Unfortunately, Ed didn't say "longest," he said biggest. Which in dev speak could mean anything.
Literally, it's salesman's semantics for "most co$tly". I'd have preferred he'd spent Warner Brothers' infinite resources on a co-op story mode (think: "dramatic battle" / 1v2, 2v2), and not a one-hit-wonder, YouTube viewable cut-scene parade... I've already got MK: Conquest if I want to see bad CGI and C-grade acting.
i mean i believe i heard some where that gear augments increase the damage of specials but that stuff is just for casual play anyway
The thing is they say it's optional because it's only offline however it's necessary to deal with if we want more customisation options... So not exactly optional. I'd love to be able to turn off Augments offline as well as online.
