All it was good for to me was giving my OCD ass a few achievements to whore lmao.

On xb1 I think each faction has won with special forces being Champs 2 or 3 in a row. I still doubt it's legitimacy cuz at first no faction came anywhere near Lin kuei and now they are last place week in and out... hmmm
That's because people are switching still for Achievement Whoring. I'm 1 level away from 50 in Brotherhood of Shadow, then I just have Special Forces and Lin Kuei left.

Then I'll switch, probably to Brotherhood of Shadow, and leave it for life.

Yeah just hit 50 on s forces last night. Like I said I'm OCD and I can tell the koth 100 points is gonna be my bane. I think its glitches it shows me at 10% for a week but I have earned a chunk of respect points since then so idk.

Good luck getting it! I like to collect Achievements as well, but I'm not as concerned with online ones. If I get them, great, if not, oh well.

I don't know if I'm the only one who feels this way but I am SO tired when people complain about a character and what they can or can't do. It's gotten to the point that that if you don't agree with said complaint/complainer, you're marked as someone who "doesn't" play the character or have the "knowledge" to address certain issues with that character. Like at what point does it sink in that regardless how much time you complain about something in this game, you're NOT going to just get it handed to you unless you're an established Fighting game player.

just going to rant real fucking quick here
so I enter a cr tourney thingy on twitter just for fun and I sit and practice Hellfire scorpion (cause only a scum would purposely use inferno online) against the Very Hard AI
The guy that im up against first fails to inv me, so I invite him 3 times, 10 minutes pass and he INSISTS on his connection. I figure what the hell, until I see his gamercard
ALL DECKED OUT IN INFERNO SCORPION STUFF
that shit threw me off my game instantly. I'm not going to do a scorpion mirror match online, nor am i going to play sub zero vs scorpion online, thats a deathwish.
so I pick johnny cage and swallow my pride. we go in the match and I SHIT YOU NOT ITS -25 FRAMES
I WAS UNABLE TO BLOCK THE FULL SCREEN MIXUPS, NOR WAS I ABLE TO BLOCK ON WAKEUP
Then he sends me a message afterwards; "dude youre fucking shit"

*Spit* No Charge
For a game that was promised all these online components, you would have thought they they would you know ACTUALLY HAVE DECENT NETCODE. It's sad to see that this games netcode is worse than MK9's and Injustice's. IMO 50/50's need to be nerfed and anti-air's need to be buffed. I'm not saying 50/50's should be nonexistent, I'm saying that I feel 50/50s should not be the end all be all of this game. I'm sure we can all agree that anti airing in this game is not worth the try considering the current state of it.

Why would you be able to use a character you don't have?

Just for training mode. I guess I can already do it in online training mode if I find soneone willing who mains a DLC character. Also I thought we were gona get free rotations like in Killer Instinct which would be great for learning matchups. I dont like supporting packs/season passes. im holding out for the GOTY edition :D

Hat Trick
I'm writing a final paper but all I can think about how bullshit it is that NO ONE HAS XRAY SET UPS LIKE GREEN ARROW. That was literally the only reason I mained GA. He wasn't good, and I don't want Raiden or Sonya or Erron Black to have it. Give Reptile or Kitana an unblockable Xray that leads to combo and has a slow startup that requires set up. Thats all I want NRS, plz plz plz

As a Lackey player, I can tell you that the variation would be broken if the cmd throw did anything but throw them full screen.
Howcomes? Other characters in this game leave them closer. I gues cause I come from playing street fighter I think grappler cmd throws should set up oki anywhere on screen.

Falls down too much

Lackey doesn't really work like Gief from SF, the damage comes from combos that are set up with people trying to avoid his command grab. Gief is a footsies game until he gets paid off with SPDs. It's sort of the opposite in fact. The reason they have to go full screen is that the oki is just too good. If they're fullscreen I can't run and cover their options as they get up. Any other distance and Lackey would just get in again with a being contested. If they made it less distance they'd have to slow down his run speed, and I wouldn't want that.

When in doubt, armor out.
So, a guy with Kotal Kahn gets 35 wins against noobs. Easy pickings. I get in and pick Kung Lao, half the time, my wakeup spins would come out, the other half, they wouldnt. And after my f12 string it WOULD NOT do a spin so I could combo. If not for this, I could have easily stomped this guy and when I get my mic in and start raging, aparently I'm just mad cause I suck. No, I'm going to get god damn mad if I get fucked out of a match cause my wakeups want to work SOMETIMES and I keep dropping my combos for whatever reason. These occurrences are too consistent for it to be an error on my end, if it was me, I'd noticed it by now and corrected myself.

Give me a normal move that has no start up frame animations, 60 active frames, and no recovery frames. The hitbox takes the whole screen. It needs to be unblockable, and deal 100% damage with no scaling properties. I will be happy if I can only do that. :D

when your stuff doesnt come out on wakeup, just block.
your own fault for not adapting on the fly

Are we ignoring the fact they wouldn't mid combo either? What do you suppose for me to do then, Grandmaster?

I do these things, and doesn't it reinforce the point that this is fucking stupid that we have to take loss after loss just to avoid rage over shit connections?

why even get mad? you lose nothing outside of PRECIOUS win/loss stat which literally nobody cares about because it is indication of literally nothing

this thread is for rants, but why rant over silly stuff :coffee:

It's not about the W/L tracker, that thing is meaningless, actually one of the things I wish they'd take the hell out.
 
Strings such as mileena back 1 2 1+3 and subs foward 4 2 1+3 are fucking retarded.You can miss first 2 hits of this string and still get the hit.I mean lets reward some one who completely wiffs the combos first 2 hits.The sub zero wiffs first two hits and get free restand.If you space right you wiffs first 2 hits and still kill some if there advancing toward you,and mention other string as well missing 1 and 2 hits sometimes getting big damage.Just seems like way to many missing strings that still reward.The hit boxes in MKX way far off compared to MK9 in my opinion.

I let subzero slide on me so god damn much.
1)Knock subzero down,
2)He slides for wakeup while I'm standing with cock in hand firing off eb shots..
3) Furiously chastise myself for being so stupid when I know it's Fuxking subzero, and I even play a fucking wakeup slide khar,
4) Do it again 2 minutes later.
