MKX Enhanced Online BETA General Discussion

[DarksydeDash]

I registered as soon as I saw it available and I still haven't got my code Dx

 

[MrProfDrPepper]

Rip me still no code

 

[stamatis]

What about us?the rest EU players?

 

[Pterodactyl]

And it's still closed.

I'm not gonna get my PS4 code ever will I...

Knowing my luck they'll send it to me on the very last day...

I just wanna feel that sweet silky smoothness, damnit.

 

[EMPEROR PRYCE]

Stil no code

 

[stamatis]

It feels good to get kinda back in the swing of things. I've missed TYM (was still around, of course... but you know). When I say I've missed TYM, that means you guys and gals. Without you, we're nothing.

Now tell me,when EU will receive the codes?

 

[Evil Canadian]

cooooodeee

 

[supernumian]

Codeless here, too...
Somebody give me an hug.

Is, the new online, still region locked?

 

[REO]

Here's a video of many of the character changes for those of you who don't feel like digging through a bunch of threads to find info, don't have the beta code, or are just too busy:

The rest of the changes should be in the vid description unless we missed any.

 

[OutworldKeith]

That's what I'm saying. You have characters with much better rewards and both options can be made safe.

f2 is a really good move as a spacing tool. But using takedown to 50/50 with it? You better not get read, is all I say.

It's a good thing to use sparingly. But eventually the person will say fuck it and actually block low. Then you die.

Thank you! People are overreacting for nothing.

I'm not a tournament player so my opinion means nothing lol.

 

[OutworldKeith]

At max range, few characters can punish it. I never talked about anti-airing with it either and cancelling gives it another layer with the slide mixup that leads into great oki now. Have you actually played the beta with the changes or are you just theory fighting and telling everyone who disagrees with you that they're an idiot?

All I said is that its a good move. I disagree with @SaltShaker 's point on the anti-airing thing and believe that's an exaggeration. The conversation was about ninjutsu so obviously there's not going to be a discussion about hellfire. However, I'll be happy to talk about Hellfire and its buffs when you can leave your ego behind and quit acting like you know all there is to know regarding scorpion because you clearly don't.

I don't have an ego. what I said about F2 is very true & it's not as good as he made it seem in his response to my post.
F2 was a special cancel normal since day 1, the slide adds a mixup with petty damage. The risk of using F2 xx Takedown is much higher than the reward. Its no different than 212 & 21 xx Takedown. His oki has ALWAYS been great in Ninjutsu. If anything the sweep buff makes his oki much better because its safe now.

It's no beef B, just don't try and attack me like I don't know my stuff.

 

[OutworldKeith]

For a person who main a character "since day 0" you're not very attune to your character's options, time to go to lab my friend...

& you know that how?

 

[OutworldKeith]

Where did you see me type anything about f2's OH into Takedown? I simply said that f2 was already good and this change that MAY stay has made it even better.

If anyone needs to chill, it's you. You're calling someone (not me, I know) an idiot over a fucking video game. Yet it's others that need to chill?

That's the mixup that makes him so good that has everyone shitting bricks right?

I agreed that F2 is great yes as a spacing tool. What you're saying leads back to my OP, it's better BUT NOT as good as ppl are making it out to be.

Yeah they need to chill because they have no idea what the fuck they're yapping about. Bet half you dudes don't even play the char.

 

[OutworldKeith]

Why do you keep saying only Slide as if he doesn't have a low starter and an OH starter to mix in as a combo starting 50/50?

Looking for a low starter, an OH starter, and an OH to Low TD, while EX Spear can make things safe, and F2 alone is safe on block against a lot of cast, and both lead to another restand, into another 50/50, and slide is + enough now to make oki 50/50's, is what people are talking about. Not just F2~slide in a vacuum.

Hence the reason they made the first hit Mid.

After TP he's like +18 that's where the vortex starts, so in that aspect F2 is great. However, he has to commit to the low in order to get damage. F2 can be made safe from this distance ONLY if he uses the TP cancel (away), or EX Spear.

Please tell me you're not talking about his F4 OH starter? lol Bruh I can go do the dishes & still have enough time to react to that.

When it boils down to it, F2 buffs are not gonna be as good as people think.

but omg those kenshi buffs

omg those raiden buffs... wasnt displacers tele faster?

and where is ravenous buffs?

 

[Linkuei82]

Still no code for me either.

 

[BrieoRobino]

Must be nice to have a code...

 

[Jack Burton]

What the hell does a guy have to do to get some beta codes here?! I heard some people got more than one!

 

[STRYKIE]

F2 is good because.... it was already good at a number of things already. Not because they gave it some welfare mixup that there's systematically no reason to not fuzzy guard. If the first hit of F2 could be stopped and staggered by itself I would maaaaaybe understand, but that's not a thing either.

I will 1000% trade that overhead hit for Takedown being safe. Or even, you know, an actual armored launcher in just 1 variation. Doesn't even have to be Ninjutsu.

 

[CAM THE SAGE]

Sadly I can totally see the top tier of MKX at the end of the game's life being: Leatherface, Smoke, Sektor, Cyrax, Bo, Demo Sonya, and Tremor, or something like that.

I hope I'm wrong!!

I hope ur not long live Tremor and Smoke

Jesus-tittyfucking-Christ I thought that buff was exclusive to commando, but it's universal to all command grabs?

Man, I was creaming my jeans over Kotal's last batch of buffs but I never expected this...

This is good news for Goro and Jason as well I guess.

It also looks cool as fuck.

 

[LaidBackGaming]

Just a general discussion of Beta, Buffs/Nerfs and KP2.

We can't wait for the net-codes to be available for everyone to play. This really is something special

Please like, comment and subscribe. we only want to get better and will accept any criticism

 

[Diamondust]

I got a code last week and nothing happened. Entered it correctly and went into the game, saw nothing different. i still have the same game and cannot get a matchup online. Just sits on " Finding an Oppnent." for decades.

 

[Eldriken]

Five characters with the letter "K" at the beginning of their name were added to the list and Kotal wasn't among them. FUUUUUUUU

Also, welcome back, @STORMS. Glad to see you're back.
