I didnt know it and also wasnt trying it. really thought its a overhead rule. lol i guess
What? I kinda quit with pc gaming. In MK11 it also was 30fps and it was crazy shitty, some moder fixed it. (Bless this guy) After a while they (QLOC) fixed it and you didnt need a fan-patch every update(!).

Now you tell me, MK1 on PC still has a 30fps lock in cutscenes? Also the entire story mode?
Ranked on ps5 is also so much more fun because bigger poll of not so strong players like me.
At least PC is getting crossplay, i guess ...
But i agree, this game feels really not polished. I found so many errors in the command list, still to this day even tho every patch they fix stuff there. Winterfatal has the command hold R2,dd but its actually R2,ff and brutals have the wrong button displayed. I really wonder how you can have there so many errors with any QA ... fire and forget implementation ...
Every DLC even main MK roster only gets 1 outfit rest 8-10$DLC or will we get only 1 the entire lifespan of the game? oh boy ... man the direction is clear to see but I just dont want to see it, such a great franchise ...

Honestly, working in the games industry in general seems like a no-win situation.
I don’t have an issue with using health as one of the ways to help augment balance. But if they’re using it as the only method of balance, I’m not necessarily a big fan of that. My issues with the health values is that some of them just don’t make sense to me. Like Geras should have the least amount of health in the game, yet he only has 50 less than the default 700. The main reason being because he has very easy access to replenish his health multiple times a round which effectively means he, more often than not, will have the most health in the game. AND you also factor in that he’s a very good character on top of that, so those reasons combined should put him at the least amount of HP. Then we look at Quan Chi and Nitara, both in which have the lowest base HP in the game at 600 each. I understand the reasoning for Nitara is similar to the main reason Geras’ health is lowered. But, she doesn’t have the added benefit of being a super strong (top tier) character. That said, I don’t really know much about Nitara. I’ve only ever used her in her combo Trials and the only ones I’ve played against were horrible, and hardly any competitive player uses her. With Quan Chi, him having 600 HP also doesn’t make much sense. A lot of balancing decisions made about Quantum Chimichanga don’t make a whole lot of sense honestly. But, I know he just released, so maybe we just haven’t discovered why these decisions were made yet.
So many good points here. I've been saying it from the very beginning, Geras will be getting "better" as more players getting more familiar with him since he's a complicated character. He's an insane character that I could see being fair even at 900hp. Nitara is also an insane character; she has MK9 Kabal lvl of mobility and high damage but she's also complicated and requires high execution. Idk if she deserves the 900hp but she's crazy on paper, and maybe as the game matures she'll rise up.
Yeah Geras is kinda like C.Viper in Vanilla SF4. Everyone thought she was low tier or at best mid tier, but it was due to not much representation and her requiring more execution and her having a bit more depth to her. Then she shot up to I think like either the best or top 3 in the tier list without her even getting any buffs. Now, no one has said Geras is low tier but I definitely agree that he has been creeping up the ranks since release.
That's a very good argument. Lots of gatekeeping in her moves. On launch that move used to cost 50hp
They should probably loosen up the leash on her a bit or give her more hp.
I dont disagree really, if anything I just wish her wakeup was a mid, it doesnt combo unless you have Motaro or Kung Lao, and then it heavily scales down the follow up.
I'd be cautious to do that. The idea of a highly mobile character that gets punished for taking a hit gels with having a bad wakeup. And since Kameos are a thing, if it was a mid she could essentially always have a way off the ground.
Yeah, it's happening on every platform. Some change they made had knock-on effects that broke something related to connections. That's basically what I was talking about here:
In addition to this, they need to have a sound play when a player is found. You get the cymbal crash (or whatever it is) when it shows who the opponent is, but not when a connection is found. There's been plenty of times that due to the somewhat long-ish wait times, i'm not staring at the screen constantly looking at that oh-so pretty picture and don't realise i've been matched so it gets cancelled.
Idk if I like that. I'm personally quite pleased with what we have right now. I would definitely add a sound when a match is found though. That's a strange omission.
Because of ping <150ms? Well that's what it always used to be. Even if it was 100, just something to stop the game waiting for input when there's no need to. Hell they could even have a custom option, set a number in settings and anything under that gets automatically accepted.
Oh yeah. I'm not suggesting what we have right now is perfect or ideal either. I would prefer an actual filter where I can filter out the connections I don't want to be matched with. Let's say, flip a toggle if you don't want to be matched against wifi players and another toggle for max ping. For me, 100ms is max latency I'm comfortable playing but I know other players have different preferences so it would be preferable if NRS didn't lock us under a global ping.
