Holy shit, if this turns out to be true...
Could it be that WB/NRS sent old build of the game (apparently from January) to reviewsers, pro players, "influencers"... to avoid all the microtransactions/grind backlash in reviews?

That seems a little presumptuous

In January Baraka’s spark was a mid lol

They are not avoiding that cuz it's a grind fest in Krypt. But I've always thought it was an old build. They usually release day 1 build after day 1.

This would be awesome if it's true, but this is Chernyy we are talking about here lol.

From January? Hard to believe.

Wouldn’t the opposite be true ? Sending an old build with all of the grinding and micro transactions is what is causing the backlash. If the final build is less grindy, wouldn’t they want people reviewing the game to actually review that version of the game ?

 

[Trini_Bwoi]

What is your logic? Chernyy's got a January build and everyone else does not?

I think the implication (if what he says is true) is everyone's got the January build.

My game got just a 1.02 Update with 230MB.

Just saying.

 

[Queen Sindel]

Don't think so. It could be one of the main reasons. If its really January's build.

 

[FoughtDragon01]

I'm confused. Does this mean that the absurd grind some people have described for the single-player experience is from an older version that will be normalized on launch, or did specific people get sent a copy from WB themselves (not from stores breaking street dates) that doesn't have a grind nearly as bad to try and get better reviews?

Either way, something more concrete than a tweet would be nice before I start getting my hopes up. Again.

And people were saying that reveal build (the one people played in January) is from Septermber.

 

[GLoRToR]

And people were saying that reveal build (the one people played in January) is from Septermber.

And people saying that the build from September was made in August.

 

[legion666]

And people were saying that reveal build (the one people played in January) is from Septermber.

So, did “people” play MK11 in September?!?

 

[Kal]

That would be dumb as hell because these early impressions are eating them alive, and the reviewers will hopefully shit on the kyrpt and towers.

 

[TheJaquio]

This would be AWESOME if it's true, but this is Chernyy we are talking about here.

Fingers crossed, but yeah, from January? Hard to believe.

Yeah, maybe he'll tell us his source, for $10.

 

[Lord Greyjoy]

Some characters weren't even finished in January so how is that possible?

Never heard of this happening with any game ever. This is unparalleled cope/reach.

16Bit and Dizzy I suppouse.

Just saying.

anything new in that update?

 

[SaltShaker]

This is obviously not the January build. There are clear differences.

My game got just a 1.02 Update with 230MB.

Just saying.

Is there anything different? Check frame data for characters you remember to see if anything looks changed with the frames posted in character threads.


Check to see if Cetrion still has the worst frames in the game

 

[Rice]

At first glance its apparently just bug fixes maybe somebody else will find potential other changes.

 

[SaltShaker]

At first glance its apparently just bug fixes maybe somebody else will find and if there any other changes.

Try to Spirit Dance your way across the screen and see if it still works.

[Monarchos159]
