Interesting. I struggled with MKX ticks like hell. I played some Vicious F/T at the time and I wouldn't even bother with trying them in a real match. Even b121~throw ender (which I used for Ruthless for some time) was failing half the time. 1~throw and stuff like that was reminding me of tales people were telling about them practicing JFT in Soul Calibur for weeks.
Nothing has been changed for Bane's tick throws as of recent as far as I remember. As for just IJ2 grabs in general, don't think so either.
Do you play with input shortcuts off? I know that makes a much bigger difference in cancelling some strings than others, like they were designed with input shortcuts in mind and were given infinitesimal cancel windows without it. With Harley's b2~df2, if I don't just do a straight hcf, I'll miss the cancel window entirely.
It's definitely gotten worse with each new game. I don't know what NRS did, but with MK9 I had no problems with the controls/inputs at all. I'm not exaggerating, in MK9 I could do everything, play every character, even the ones that were considered to be more technically difficult, such as Sonya and Ermac. Same thing with Injustice 1. Never had any controller or input issues. For Mortal Kombat X I mostly had no issues at all. Only some slight problems here and there with some characters, but it was rare. Then came Injustice 2, and I don't know what the hell NRS did but with Injustice 2 I have input errors all over the place with damn near the entire cast. Turning Release Check off helps lower the instance of these errors but it does not eliminate it entirely. Something is very wrong with the controls/inputs in Injustice 2.
Doesn't turning Input Shortcuts off make the game like Street Fighter? For example instead of having to do D,F,2 for a move it then becomes B,D,F,2. That just makes things even harder, doesn't it? I ended up throwing my Street Fighter 4 disc away, because I had nightmares of how difficult a lot of the stuff was in that game. Just thinking of how you had to do Guile's super and ultra combos makes me want to throw up. The person that came up with those inputs needs to be taken out back and shot.
What? This is not how Input shortcuts work at all.
He's confusing it with alternate controls, which do the madness he was talking about. You have to input B DB D DF F instead of BF
Dafuq? What is the point of this?
It's supposed to be easier on sticks or something
I think it's meant for people who are used to doing half circle motions on their sticks from street fighter or so on. It's a very common input in that game so it would work for them.
As a stick player who played a lot of Sf/Marvel, I disagree. Having to do a whole half circle for fireballs is extremely rare in either series. And for Inj2 where the main zoning tools for a lot of characters is bf inputs (Batman, Hood, Beetle, Hellboy), using alternate controls is not worth it.
Well then. NRS just needs to get their shit together then.
ATP has made my point for me, but yea I've been playing arcade fighters from the jump, I mostly play guilty gear, and that motion just doesn't make sense for a fireball. It's also nice being able to do them from a crouch, but only a few characters in inj2 have that luxury. Everything else on alternate controls I think is great though, just wish NRS would hear my desperate pleas.
OMG this is a real thing?! I thought I just reeked or sloppy inputs!
