Has anyone out there have this ever happen to them before? There's this weird freeze or lock out bug that will happen when playing MKX randomly during a match where inputs will drop and both players will be locked out for some time. This bug is rare but when it happens, it's extremely apparent and can completely kill the momentum of the match and throw players off. It's happened before when I've played against
@YOMI DJT and
@YOMI MITYEAP in long sets of casuals and when it hit, we just said "WTF?" and looked at each other as if our controllers suddenly broke or something of the sorts. I've never been able to capture it on video or have it on stream until NOW.
Below you can see this bug occur at
01:20 in a match of casuals between myself and
@EMPEROR_JUPITER. The bug happens at the end of Predator's throw animation at around
01:20. Pay attention to the button log and notice how mysteriously our button logs silence and then mine floods with sudden left over inputs during the span from where we were both "locked out". I was trying to perform an EX straight laser right after my throw on his knock down and couldn't move. Nothing would come out and no inputs were registering.
An issue similar to this happened during one of my pool matches at EVO when I was trying to get an armor attack out after a string and my character was stuck in place for over a second. I originally thought it was a controller malfunction on my part... But now that I think back, it most likely had something to do with this bug. Something like this can be a serious buzz kill and soul crushingly devastating to have it happen in the heat of the moment during an intense tournament set. Hopefully some of you tech monsters can look into this and find the potential cause of what could be possibly making this happen.
And before anyone asks. Yes, all other controllers were desynced from the PS4. The only controllers connected to the PS4 console were myself and Jupiters. We even double checked after the bug occurred and it was confirmed. This freeze bug also happened with me against the Terry brothers off-line with no internet connected at the Yomi house. So this should weed out any random internet connection issues or theory some of you guys may conclude.
