I work Monday, Wednesday, and Friday evenings, and I'm working from home during the day because of the quarantine. If you'll all are looking to play tonight though (Tuesday) or Thursday evening, I'm down.
I used ScpToolkit to fix my issues to play KI and haven't noticed any latency problems with the controls. I actually hadn't heard about the overhead regarding the Steam wrapper, so that's good to know.
It's because people don't bother to learn what it actually does and how it affects the game. When they first implemented this feature I saw nothing but the typical online bile from people assuming this was UMVC's easy controls, etc. It's somewhat understandable since easy mode controls have been historically bad, but Combo Assist is very well designed as you've said.
I noticed that too, i seem to end up doing Orchids rising knee when I'm inputting her slide and vice versa, as well as random inputs that are performed "similarly". I wasn't sure if it was just my old and aging hands or what
If you're getting her Air Buster when you're trying to do her Blockade Runner, you're likely rolling your thumb from holding forward to down and then forward again.
Nah, that is just the way the game is. It is VERY forgiving, and I think it was done like that on purpose.
I've gotten that exact same error.
A tale as old as time, my friend.
This doesnt happen in say sf or any other game near as often. Even with a sizable gap in between the dash and d input you still get dp in KI.
This is true. You can enable live hitboxes at any time via the pause menu also, so you can see your hitbox data and find out what can cross up or not with any help from the internet. It's pretty sweet.
I'll admit I haven't run into this issue.
Same. For me it's usually me fubbing up a quarter circle motion. See me standing there doing a random kick as Orchid? Means I'm screwing up Blockade Runner. Again
. That's on me, not the game.You have Shadow Counters, which use Shadow Meter to, coincidentally, Counter a move or Combo with a Shadow Move.
honestly there is an absolute assload to learn! It has the depth of a great oldschool fighting game where as you must know frame data for so many moves to not get frame trapped (in a lot of cases instinct mode changes this data so you gotta know more). Even for an oldschool game it has a lot of tech as far as setups/some characters can use traditional throws to combo/juggle. AND on top of this you have to learn the KI combo system which is more depth than mk11 in itself. When i go back to mk11 after playing this lately its like playing a phone game lol. Not knocking mk but damn the depth in ki is not a joke.
Yup. The design philosophy behind the game is that you're always playing, that there's always something for you to do. And outside of Locking yourself out, they accomplished that well.
