Fighting Games Weekly | Apr 13-19 | This Netkode Is An Injustice

Xbox One version seems to offer the best online experience, and it's about Injustice Xbox 360 level of good. Needs a lot of work if they are planning on running online tournaments for cash on this game. At least without people calling lag as the reason for losses left and right.

It'd be hilarious if Floe wins it with his d'vorah high-low blockstring vortex that's apparently impossible to block online

So is the PC version of MKX any good?

Any significant issues in regards to performance or the netkode?

I'm debating whether its worth picking up.

I really dislike the way special moves are mapped out in MK

I just don't get it, when there's no overlap, why do I need so many random inputs for specials?

Thanks! I was literally looking at these earlier today on ebay going around 350$. Glad I decided to wait!

It *works* now, but there are some glitches such as the game krashing occasionally when assigning button kommands. All the kontent is finally out, though (wasn't all there on day 1).

Haven't played online, no komment on the netkode.

Seeing Max as the top stream on twitch is one thing, he regularly pulls 5k viewers. But seeing Jwong as the top stream on twitch right now? Nuts. I feel like I was literally just watching this guy play Kingdom Hearts in front of like 150 people.

Very curious to see the juxtaposition between this and the numbers for the SF5 beta.
 
Well he's won close to 25k the past two weeks. It's been a good month for him so far.

About Topanga TV, I always wondered if they streamed on Twitch rather than Nico because it's a lot more friendly to the viewers. We don't have to worry about getting booted from the stream like what happens on Nico. I also notice they still don't have a subscribe button or ask for donations. Don't get the wrong idea, I' wasn't going to praise them for it. I'm actually a bit surprised they haven't joined the party and tried to make a few extra bucks like everybody else has been doing.

they probably don't know about it

In order to get the subscribe button do you basically have to agree to only stream on twitch? They would get a lot of subscriptions. I mean they at least get 3k viewers every show a lot of times get 5-6k views a show.

The launch was a completely unacceptable mess. Currently it has issues but nothing breaking except for online, which is ass everywhere.

As for SF5, I think if SF5 numbers are comparable to MKX, Capcom's going to be very disappointed. I think Capcom's aiming to compete with LOL. This is what makes me kinda confident about the game, Capcom's going to have to put effort into the game to make it compete with the esports games.

1v1 competitive gaming will never match the popularity of team-based competitive gaming, just as 1v1 professional sports are nowhere near as big as team sports.

[QUOTE="God's Beard!";160321261]I literally can't name three people currently playing in the NFL. I wouldn't even be confident getting to two. The only one I'm sure of is Romo.[/QUOTE]

But you can proably name teams, right?

Anime killed real life sports for me.

I know, I wasn't disagreeing with his point.

Team sports are simply more popular. Holds true for video games as well.

SFxT was a team game at EVO!



Boxing tho


#TeamMayweather

I'm going to Vegas for the fight wooooot! Watching close circuit, there for my cousins bachelor party!

And... gonna be broke because everything that week is super inflated.

Oh jeez. I love NFL but really don't have the time/passion like I used to. UFC is kinda cool but its normalizing into a unified fighting style. I think Jeff Gerstman said it used to be Street Fighter but now its boxing.

Eh, back to dangerous elite. Justin Wong's stream sold two of my co-workers. Not sure if I will get MKX, but if I do it might be ps4. Project Cars is coming. Better race against me EnzoGT.
 
Boxing is ass. UFC and Hajime no Ippo give me that fix.
Watching anime instead of the actual sport. Look at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself "Is this what I've become?"
