I really think they're doing whatever they can to make sure 21122 for EB does not get touched before touching it. Perhaps they think his gameplay is too much centered around it to give him options elsewhere that might bust him or make him shit.
This right here is the only patch i care about Its sad that KI has godly online yet mkx has mad issues imo . Nrs needs to stop nerfing and buffing and fix their online play.
Lbsh online play is important we deserve a next gen online experience. Imo boon or someone should talk to iron galaxy and jack their netcode. Mkx is shit online imo.
Edit: thanks for not fucking sub up anymore. Seriously i am shocked
I quoted this because I was talking to SpabRog on Twitter and as much as he loves MKX, he hates how frequent the hotfixes and patches are becoming and when talked about netcode, he agreed with me that netcode is extremely important for a game's survival.
It's not even a matter of how many players go to your scenes. How do you get more players and keep your large numbers up as a game ages or gets less interesting to newcomers? The online has to be good. Tutorials and all that stuff.
I don't wanna hear the whole "Well NRS is tryi--" No. Stop. Stop and think for one second.
They had issues in MK9 and IGAU with netcode. With the fact that they had to outsource the game via WBGames (who's more to blame with your PC port because they didn't want NRS working on it or the last gen versions, just THESE two ones.) this should of actually been easier. Why is it that XBOne users are still having issues playing? PSN has matches that have such variable frame delay I cannot tell if that connection is one I wanna play in, yet forced because the game read it as a Green bar and not a yellow...
Why not outsource the netcode too? It's time for answers, as a consumer, if I want to buy your products in the future, am I not owed the right to know why UE3 cannot run rollback netcode? If not, why not use UE4? You cannot tell me they had to use UE3 because they were "licensed" to. Pretty sure they could've upgraded to UE4 if they wanted, they just knew it wouldn't work for last gen... Speaking of last gen, where is it? Some people I knew held off on buying a new console because they could play their game on it. Why the lack of info?
And I'm gonna be dead honest: WB Games might of been the WORST spot for MK to fall to. Yes, you got your precious MK9... But many fail to see the brand that is Mortal Kombat. I feel there has been less focus on the games, and more focus elsewhere such as the Legacy series and comics than giving the developers time to make their fucking game work amazing.
A good example? The PC Port of Arkham Knight just got pulled from Steam due to how shitty of a port it is. WB Games doesn't care about you, your community on TYM or how long fans have waited for a legit MK. I'll tell you simply what they see much as what I have seen with the whack microtransactions, terrible alt costumes from NRS, and just how rushed this game feels at times with how it came out. I say this on behalf of WBGames and not NRS because, it could of been NRS's full ambition to give you the best game possible, but WBGames? They don't care. They're just another reason why I fucking hate modern day publishers.

You can disagree and that's fine or claim that I'm "looking" into too much, but am I really guys?
I think something ultimately needs to change.
