Nightwolf Early Access - August 13th

A leak from Nintendo Switch site/store has the next character, Nightwolf, coming out on 8/13 early access (season pass holders). Image below taken from Reddit.



Who is ready for Sindel in November??

 

We'll probably have a trailer before the EVO Grandfinals. And a balance patch a few days after.

But 2 months between each character ? So no Ash Williams before 2020... That sucks !

The next DLC will probably be Terminator or Spawn.

 

God forbid any of you guys play Street fighter, DBFZ, Tekken, or Smash if you think NRS has issues messaging with the fanbase lol.

Always has to be that one person
This is not a board for those games, and those companies have been called out by their fans.
They all suck and none of them get a pass just for being alittle less shit.

 

2 months between characters
no gameplay trailer or kombat kast for him
no kombat pack trailer out or release date of one
NRS just keeps taking L's

I have zero sympathy for NRS now. The kommunication or more exactly the lack thereof is absolutely atrocious. People who don't own the Kombat Pack mock those who supported NRS with their money saying 'You gave them your money blindly, it's not their fault, be clever next time!'

Oh, and Spawn will become the longest running creator-owned comic book ever with Issue 301, in stores September 25. If NRS &WB let this opportunity slip and won't release Spawn on September 24 or October 1, I'll send them a big juicy F&U to keep those L's kompany.

 

Ed Boon gonna start taking the Harada approach to interacting with the fanbase

Then you will miss the days of teasers and wish for them to return

Yea, but there's a difference between trolling while following it up with giving fans the info they asked for, vs trolling followed by silence like you're pleading the 5th in court. We are getting ALL our info from literally leaks. That's just indefensible imo.

 

Nightwolf's 'helmet' is the worst thing happened in this game since Cetrion....

Oh, wait. I haven't counted NRS marketing strategy.

 

No leak will ever be as hilarious as the Noob Saibot one. Literally seconds before his official reveal, he got spoiled. God tier

 

looking forward to how he will turn out. 2 weeks to go.

 

This is painful at this point. Do I really have to wait a fuckin year for Sheeva? I'm glad I didn't blindly buy the kombat pack now..

 

I believe that more people would except the two months window time between DLC characters if it was communicated to us from NRS, but instead we got it from a leak.

That's not good.

 

You know what Nightwolf and I have in common? We both cry when trash (like that fuckin' helmet) gets thrown our way.

(goddamnit I'm old).

Ed Boon's face at that moment will forever be engraved in my memory.

 

Looks liks supporting the game longer really meant stretching content release, sad.

 

While I am not happy about how much time each character is taking, I'll remind everyone how upset people were over crunch time debacle when MK11 dropped.

Back in the MKX days, they could get characters out monthly or so because all the devs were working stupid hours, burning themselves out. While I have no first hand knowledge or evidence, I suspect they have worked to fix that issue, but as a result the time frame of DLC has been extended out.

I ask everyone in this thread who is upset: Is is a fair trade off?

• Would you rather support a dev who discourages the "crunch" atmosphere, or;
• would you rather support one that encourages it.

 

im very disapointed in his design , his very ugly and wierd

 

Just to clarify for everyone, if you purchase a Season Pass or any content without knowing what the content is, regardless of knowing release dates or not, you are blindly tossing your money at the publisher and developer.

You are buying an unknown item.

 

At this rate. I think there will only be one kombat pack

He looks good other than that hat

 

I thought that they were going to make him bad ass like Thunder.

 

at this point there better be two character trailers at evo...

 

He looks good other than that hat

i dont agree , he looks too old and small. he was bigger with wide shoulders in mk9 and older games. and i dont like his armor it look dumb his not batman

But the hope is that NRS would roughly follow the same approach to releasing information and dlc as they did in the past. I regret buying the Kombat pack and its not because I cant wait two months between characters, but I'm just completely annoyed by the garbage lack of communication. I'll never preorder anything from NRS ever again.

 

...the hope is...

You are buying an unknown item.

 

Nobody is arguing that they don’t know they are buying an unknown item. I’m saying I don’t like how they’ve chosen to communicate and market this game and I will no longer support NRS in this manner because of it.

 

so this... is how the game gets supported longer than usual. lol

SAME! NRS is simply following a business model that works in the FGC. Its scummy as fuck and needs to change. Speak with your wallets. I know for a fact I wont pre-order another NRS title until they do better with their team. Hell, if there is a Kombat Pack 2, Im not sure if ill even get that. This whole rollout has been messy. They know it and they dont givAfuck.
