The big issue, and what people should worry about, is how common this occurrence actually is.

There have been reports of this happening to users on GAF within this very thread. We need more people to record their gameplay and upload it (those that want to actually bring it to light) so that we can have more footage.

Someone should record a match with the Xbone "Record That" function and compare it with an in-game replay of the same match.

Also, it would be pretty obvious if something like this was happening. Your opponent would make zero sense, and be flailing around like crazy.

In the post 5th rank of KI online, that doesn't really happen. Everyone's pretty good and each match is played by competent players. I do think this desync thing happens, but it's a bug and not really a big issue. I had this happen to me in SFxT and Skullgirls online before too. It's a by-product of rollback netcode at times.

LMFAO. That's true, although the amount of crashes and real bugs he experiences is definitely not normal either xD

Good thing this seems to be a very rare issue. It was still funny while it lasted, but I do want to play the game one day so I am glad.

More footage of the desyncing happening, or not happening?

The sky is falling

some one here who likes to put those 2 videos together?

just now watched the video in the OP and I am still confused.

he wins the first round, and almost the second.
WTF?

"Those that want to?" Did someone just suggest a C-C-C-C-Conspiracy?

I'll save you the trouble and spoil the ending.

The matches are identical, the netcode is amazing.

so this is the answer:

This is from the Double Helix forums in the Killer Intsinct Bug Reporting Thread.

MULTIPLAYER DESYNCHRONIZATION:
User States: It seems like players in an exhibition match will desynchronize after a certain amount of rematches. The opposing player from either side will appear to not do anything and once the round is finished the lobby will close.
User States: Desynch is causing both players to see a victory screen from they're perspective. Thus, giving the illusion to a player that he won the match.

?

i dont know.
it wasnt a certain amount of rematches.
just one.

and one player didnt appear to do nothing.
he was keeping fighting like everything was fine.


and btw.: is it just a coincidence, that the guy from the double helix forum and the guy from this thread have the same avatar?

Amazing.

It's still utterly laughable that such a situation can occur, rare bug or common bug.

I think I'll trust Max on the matter, he would be in one of the better positions to know how frequent this happens. If he says it works 99.9% of the time, that's good enough for me.

Just give it up already. Everyone else already has.

So this seems to explain what was happening. The game De-Synched on each side. I believe I've only ever seen this happen in my time with exhibition matches, and not with ranked.

SFxT OBVIOUSLY did this a whole heaping bunch of times early-on, pre-patch. I'd see my friend (who has very good fighter reactions) constantly "react" to things I DIDN'T do, letting me know that wasn't exactly how things were suppose to go. You'd catch things such as over-walking to bait moves, sweep-loops that the opponent should be able to react to (that suddenly turns into a rollback instant-DP counter), fireballs that were called out, but never thrown, etc. 've seen such things also happen in laggier match replies from KoF XIII on 360; What I fought was an OK match, the replay showed either character often standing still and tossing out normals without reason; making it look as if one of the opponents went brain-dead after some time had past.

Anyone who'se played this game while listening to comments from the other side, can tell it is in-synch a vast majority of the time. I hope this issue can be refined out of the game, but this is hardly outside the realm of expectation for "fresh" Fighting Game Netcode. If anything, this is closer to what I expected (with a few hiccups and oddities), than the "IT'S AMAZING AND SOMEHOW BEATS CAPCOM AND NACMO ON DAY ONE!" stuff we've seen before.

I thought that Killer Instinct uses the Fightvatar^TM via the Power Of The Cloud^TM?

Players magically expect Online/Multiplayer games to be perfect, when the cable connected between the devices have latency?

That exaggeration is top notch.

You guys really need to start learning how to title your threads better. Seriously.

Yup, I totally missed this thread, and it's the better titled one that just popped which redirected me here.

So, is this patched?
