What's new

The Ghostface patch it's a turning point at MK1

This might be the first patch at least for me, where i see NRS finally got somewhere interesting with the game, it's not even the replay takeover, that's a bonus, but the utilities they're giving to characters each patch, giving them more identity and ways to play around in the game, it's one of the coolest things they've being doing in a while.

Of course i wish this is how the game was from day one, but improving it up at this point also shows their commitment to carry over the game to a good state, this might finally be the patch that will make me reinstall and play around to see the state of the game once more.

But so far, the game has definitely became a lot better, that's a 8/10 patch btw, just hope they keep improving the game quality as well, online, inputs and such

Some of us predicted that this is exactly what’d happen. The game keeps getting better with every patch.

Obviously some people are still affected by their first impression from a year ago, but imo this is not the same game as when everything was helicopter into XYZ.

This is a much better way to balance than just making a move do more damage/have more advantage or whatever and calling it a day.

Cmon now you cant say you called it or predicted it if you hold that position every single time and defend nrs no matter what and always say just give it time it will get better lol.

Nrs showing signs of life and starting to dig themselves up from a very deep grave and here you guys are gloating immidietly as if the game solved all its problems.

Truth is, if the game didnt recieve harsh criticism but instead everyone was like you in mega defense mode for nrs, the game would probably not be in this overwhelmingly better state it is now.

That's not accurate. Likely, a lot of these additions have been in the works for some time.

I dobout nrs planned to, for example, start adding brand new strings and moves to characters and kamoes immidetly after launch,
if people werent so vocal about it.

Alot of them being reused and recycled animations solidfy this fact.

Also considering how long and drawn out the implementation of certain things is,points to it not being a regualr pipeline.

Harsh criticims on many aspects requierd changes that were not planned.

True but it’s still technically calling it, lol
:DOGE:REO

Also, it goes both ways. When you doom posters constantly say the game will fail or die, if it does or just is even heading in that direction, y’all also do the “what did I say!?” or “called it”, etc, thing.

Regardless, giving off the impression that you’re irritated that NRS is turning MK1 around is kinda telling… no?

They probably didn’t plan for that specifically from the onset, but I’m sure they planned to take feedback from the community into consideration. With all the communication issues NRS has, they have at least proved that they’re both willing to listen to community feedback, as well as actually implement changes the community want to see.

Mr juggs, if you are calling me a doom poster then i am offended.

Why would i be irritated mk1 is getting better?
Im all for it dude lol, im just saying if you "predict" the same thing every single time no matter what and no matter how many tines you are wrong,its not really a predicition then.

People like crimson were "calling" it for the entire of mk11 lifespan and we all know how that turned out, no mjaor overhaul and the game abandoned.


Edit:Agree on your edited part.

Great question.

Glad to hear it. Just was saying the impression of your posts gave off that vibe. If it isn’t the case, then great.

Yes I know, which is why I jokingly said technically they were right and added the emotes, lol

NRS has added new moves and animations in past games as well, as far back ad MKX. This is not without precedent.
