this is exactly what IG has been doing for KI
KI streams are watched by like, 200 people, most of which are competitive gamers. MK streams are watched by 30k+ people. Most of whom have no idea or interest in what frames or damage scaling or even training mode are.

Im really looking foward to this, i just want what he already got working properly, both hitbox issues and clone issues.
i agree with rafaw...whiffing is a pain in the ass to deal with. Ducking under the ex force balls makes no sense to me...fistbump could use some love and maybe f3 into speed bag would be nice (possibly too good) otherwise a list really outshines FC in a big way once you get all the cancels down well enough to hit confirm with them. If they fix his whiffing issues AND buff him I will be upset because he will then be too good and there will be 500 JCs everywhere.... on a side note how did you get your variant put under your avatar? @rafaw

Pretty much it, dont need any buffs, just fixes.

Just click where it should be, its a "invisible" button!

I know there's no chance they bring Havik, reiko or li mei, But if they announce 1 character and that's fujin, I would be the happiest in the world. Not because fujin is one of my favorites, Because we need fujin in this game, He was suppose to be in the initial roster, and 4 years from now, I'm gonna be 27 and I don't know if I'll have the same interest in the fighting games and games in general.

please carry on then, no need to educate or help the community understand buffs/nerfs/changes/DLCs so we then end up with knee jerk nerfs and community crying non-stop...

plus, KI has been Xbox exclusive and that's why the community of KI is not as big as other games such as MK and SF. it doesn't make the IG stream any less relevant or any less informative.

So do all those games that don't have streams at all have more or less knee jerk nerfs and community crying?

IG does a fine job for its tiny very specific community. MK is followed by millions, it can't operate the same way. Sucks being the minority.

Are we sure Fisticuffs isn't getting any buffs?

"It is now my favorite Cage variation. I love it in the reset game." -Tyler's Twitter

Post patch is what I'm getting from that.
He already got a reset game, but this fist part "It is now my favorite Cage variation" really looks like it changed in the new patch.

so, let's keep things the way they are and have a crappy community as we have now. who cares.

it was just a suggestion dude, I know the difference in size of the communities. but doesn't mean NRS and the MK community cannot and should not consider doing the same.
 
like the idea of a stream to go over the patch notes and get an explanation/reasoning of why the buffs/nerfs have been implemented, per character.
this is exactly what IG has been doing for KI, there would be a stream to go over all the notes and answer any questions from the community.
However, it would be much better if we actually had the patch notes BEFORE the stream so the community can ask questions during the stream and get the developer to answer and explain - it becomes much more efficient, involves the community more, and shows that the development team are listening, and are close to the players.

the same could also be done for DLC releases in the future, to go over the character - break them down - explain the play-style/variations and what went on in the design/development of the character.
What NRS and all fighting games really need is a public test area, similar to MMO's, where the community can test a patch BEFORE release and give feedback.

Normalize grab immunity.
Damage + a reason to actually use the up and straight hats.
Is buzzsaw the variation you like the most? Where would you use it over tempest?

Mos traps will be -15 on hit, all tg lightning strikes will be +42 on hit.
:DOGE ^:DOGE
If traps themselves don't get some kinda buff . . . I just don't know man. I hate thunder god just cause it's been indirectly affecting ny fun.

Yeah, that's not at all what I said.

NRS is already doing way more community outreach than most of its competitors, including Capcom who rule the competitive FGC. "Be more like KI" is not the silver bullet you guys think it is.

I thought about that after I posted, but initially I had in mind that they mentioned they're doing enough buffs/nerfs to "reset" the game.

I think he'll be getting something done either way. Even if it's a minor change.

My guesses for Johnny is that they buffed some of his universal tools such as AA and some things. But nothing variation specific.


I really want them to buff Jacqui's horrible universal flaws. I am totally ok if they nerf her damage and machine gun in Full-Auto as long as they give her a good neutral game, good pokes and non T-rex arms.

I dunno, I think I like all of Laos variations equally. Buzzsaw is for GM Sub, possibly A list cage, can be helpful against kitana.
Tempest overall is preferable, and I like pressure characters, they've always been my thing.
Buzzsaw & hat trick are definitely more fun to watch though, IMO.
