The Official MKXL Complain/Rant Thread

[crosstalk]

There's Ermac salt? I swear I'm the only one in our forum who isn't giving up on him as a 4life main. Who's spreading the sodium?

There's still some serious sodium spillage to clean up after the meter bug that was found.

 

[Sage-Of-Light]

Are you salty and you feel that you have to complain about something or blame somebody? do it here!
Topics: subzero, run mechanic, netcode, nrs, overhead rockets, move spamming, meterless high damage combos, resets, zoning, vortex, safe strings, safe specials, unblockables and much more!
Feel free to contribute!



DO YOUR COMPLAINING HERE!! ALL COMPLAINT THREADS WILL BE MERGED INTO THIS ONE!! - TYM Staff

PS- See here: http://testyourmight.com/threads/triforce-real-talk.50746/

People who say Sub-Zero needs to get nerfed can suck a icicle (pun intended) I personally think that Sub-Zero should be able to do b33 into a normal ice ball (universal) so far he can only connect on female characters, this is a buff I would like subzero to have.

I dont want people saying he is fine lol because I have seen what other charcters are capable of, such as inferno scorpion he has a low minion that keeps you in place and a over head projectile, imagine if Sub-Zero had a low ice ball I know that scorpion does not need a low ice ball thats what I see.

I am happy with Sub-Zero but I think he deserves more, thats just me being honest.

 

[xTim Tebowx420]

They should make a character named salt and make him god tier but for 39.99 since thats all nrs and ed boon care about anyways.
Also salt is so overused rip

Online is not what keeps a game alive at all in the competitive scene. The numbers will dwindle online regardless. However, the competitive offline scene will still support the game with decent numbers for years. KI has great netcode, but isn't exactly "lively."

Online do keep the game alive!!!

With a garbage online will make the game dead!!!


Majority of casuals players keep the game alive. That is why mortal kombat remain on the top 10 played game on xbox not because tournament players play it!!! Who mostly buy mortal kombat games? Tournament players or Casuals? My point!!! Watching the competitive just give the game a little push!!!


If killer Instinct was popular like Mk10? More people will play killer Instinct because playing online is like playing offline!!!


If neatherrealm did THERE JOB!!!!!!
And didn't let the netcode leave their building people wouldn't be saying online doesn't matter. KI online matters!!!!

Why because again playing online is like playing offline.


Casuals what makes this game alive.

So it always better for a company to favor the casual more and make sure their online Work!!!!!!

KI HAS SET THE STANDARD!!!
Now its time for developers to follow and not fall like neatherrealm.


We are in 2015 not 2008

What?..
There goes my training on smallest characters possible, thinking that if I can do it against them, I can do it period.
And I kept wondering why do people use ex-ball there...

NRS, you fucked up again.
I cannot believe I'm so close to stopping caring about MKX beyond casual mashing after just 2 weeks (and since fun in casual mashing goes away even faster, well...). Despite years of experience NRS have, they released one big mess again.

Outdated online, making player decision less relevant through option selects (and possible eventual downfall of characters that don't have good ones), idiotic hitbox interaction, input bugs...

Fuck this.

P.S. And I didn't even mention balance at high level (I kinda care about that since I enjoy watching a good tournament) because we all know what a joke it will be in 6 months. I mean, go ahead and prove me wrong, I'll be happy, but until then... Eh.

Hello NRS.

It's EVO 2011 all over again:

Timestamp 2:40 since it doesn't work to embed it.

Safe low hat? Really NRS? How hard is it to learn? It was nerfed in MK9 and now you bring it back?
If one guesses right in that mixup nothing is lost, Kung Bullshit can start it again.

 

[Samsung Crunchy]

I'm sure this has been mentioned previously, but EX Hellsparks is way too unsafe. What's the point of blowing meter on it if it's still punishable? Also, Devil's Flick has abysmal tracking and doesn't even link when do it with back 3 on the P2 side.

I want to feel bad for that another dude, but I'm not sure I can do so for one who picks Displacer in its current state.
Unless he knows something we don't. Doesn't change much though

 

[nicomatc]

johnny doesn't have any mix up & only one combo starter f2,4...........

[exflyingbooty]

My biggest complaint is the spiders and how i'm starting to develop tourettes in the process

yeaaaa. I'm talking about offline events.

Ermac's armor moves are awful. Burst does 5% damage, can be d3/d4 under and minus 5 on block. EX Tp has armor only on wakeup (wtf?)

If Ermac was given armor on ex tp I wouldn't complain about him at all. Or at least give his burst better properties.

Every other character has an armored launcher or ~20% damage special.

p.s. where are patches for PC?!

This is quite normal though. Some specials only have armor on wakeup.

Not every really, but damage of some Ermac's specials is indeed laughable.

p.s. where are patches for PC?!

Coming with Jason patch, if we are to go by HVS letter.

 

[Jack Slate]

I'm a huge MK fan. Been playing since Mortal Kombat first dropped back in 93. This has to be the worst game, I just hate it. I play every fighting game that I can, but this one just rubs me the wrong way. I hate the variation system, can't find a god damn character worth playing. I've literally just given up and am waiting for Jason and Predator, and praying they are worth a damn. I bought it on Xbone, PC, as well as PS4 and just can't believe how much NRS dropped the ball with this one so far.

 

[M.D.]

Whoever wrote the very hard AI in this game should get fired or work on menu detail for the rest of his programming career.

 

[Sultani]

They better be working their asses off to make sure the next patch comes quickly and fixes all the garbage.

So like... damage scaling seems incredibly poorly thought out too. Havent looked at too many things in this regard... but why in the fuck does this happen..

Ermac... b2 3+4 12, njp, jump kick, 22 lift, jump kick ex teleport, tk push.

Why is that combo like... seriously only slightly better than an uppercut?

 

[JoeX0rX]

Fuck scorpion in his dumb ass.

 

[Apex Kano]

I find it hilarious that people are salty over Quan, considering how shit on he was in mk9

How dare you speak foul upon the mighty Quan Chi!

 

[Sultani]

Could you even imagine if KLs low hat in buzz saw was made -8 on hit? People would freak the f out that the character is ruined.

Meanwhile mileena. Just sayin.

 

[RavenBlade]

When playing Ranked, I get matched up with every single person like 5 times in a row. It's annoying as hell. I'm currently trying to find an opponent, and I've been matched up with the same person 5 times now. Problem is, it's lagging like craaaaazy when I'm playing against him, basically unplayable. So yeah, it sucks to be matched up with the same guy and the connection sucks.

 

[ZoO]

Online is so bad.....you need online specific combos as your regular bnb are too hard to preform.

Fyi I only have the PC version. Are the consoles any better? Anyone have both to compare?

 

[Jaku2011]

I hate when someone declines you in player match and the game keeps giving you the same guy over and over.

The majority of people that play this game don't give a shit about offline "scene". Personally I love to watch tournaments, but I really don't attend. This game will die even quicker than other MK's because the online is horrendous.
