Mortal Kombat X - Official Launch Trailer

Exactly my feelings. It was hard to wait, but something told me online would be shit.....again.

Some high level Ermac said it was btter than Injustice, but also another player said bad.

there is a day one patch for online give it till then and we'll see even though im doubtful.
i thinks its like when you play people with really good connection you be okay, but when you play bad connection they are REALLY laggy
 
Been reading and listening to folks who got the game early...hope you guys are ready to learn movement because this does not move like IGAU or MK9 and its very movement oriented. Wakeups and the way runs work, affect meter, and what cancels running is pretty crucial. Prepare to manage meters and earn your position. It sounds amazing, but I'm putting this out here now because in Injustice folks whined like children because they picked up a new game and they weren't amazing at it instantly because they didn't bother to learn how to move and control space in that game's system.

MKX has its own mindset in how it moves, and how you force movement. It will need learned and you will need to adjust to it. Do this FIRST and by all accounts I've read on forums and social media it seems amazing. The folks bitching the loudest seem to be complaining because they don't want to use meter for wakeups and because they can't figure out that this run system is not the same thing as blockdashing...
 
At least we have mixed opinions, and not everyone saying it's bad. And I didn't heard anyone ever saying Injustice/mk9 netcode was great, so there's that

Holy shit this sounds great

Wakeups use meter? Interesting. I can see it already. You get two AAs, other guy tries doing a wakeup a third time in a row, but doesn't know he can't...you run for that sexy ass combo. I like this.

Does a wakeup X-ray or X-rays themselves use the stamina meter?

Yeah, I heard about this stamina meter, I don't know if MK9 had it, but I've been away from MK's for so many years that I have no idea, but I'm curious to see how it works. Controlling movement with meter sounds interesting
 
so, do we know more about the region locked multiplayer ?

Are they gonna patch it out ?

This is an outrageous move, a fighting game in 2015 with no decent netcode / region locked multiplayer shouldn't be something everybody doesn't care about :/ ...
 
Prolly not, were you able to with the Injustice costumes?

That sucks big time, as the MK2 female kostumes are probably my favorite retros of all time, and my phone isn't powerful enough to run the mobile game.

It feels unfair. And yes, that sounds whiny, but who gives a shit. I'm an MK fan, damnit, gimme my goodies for a reasonable price! Buying a new tablet or phone for a single kostume is not reasonable at all :(

They're doing that shit again?

Ughhh. Started the download. Hopefully it won't be a waste of time and the costumes end up being worth it.
 
I hope the costumes aren't good ones because this game is absolute shit.

I don't know how Injustice played but this if goddamn terrible. My 2013 iPad Mini isn't a "supported device" so it crashed three times in the span of 10 minutes.

Seriously, you guys remember that Mahvel iOS game that came out a couple months ago? Funner to play than this.

You're better off waiting for someone else to unlock the costumes and using their login info to get them.

Hope you're not a fan of MK2 Kitana/Mileena or Injustice Scorpion.
 
Wakeups don't cost meter. You can do any special(or backdash or throw) as a wakeup. They take the same resources as they would normally. You're just doing the move as a wakeup attack. They do not gain invincibility like they did in MK9 and Injustice. So if you want to have armor as a wakeup you'd need to use an armored EX move or X-Ray. That is why people may be saying "wakeups cost meter".

Thanks for clearing that up.

That's a relief. It felt like wakeup attacks were abused quite a bit in Injustice.

Yeah I was about to say. Wakeups costing meter for regular moves is a stupid idea. If you EX wake up sure but normal moves costing meter what? Thanks for clearing that up 16 bit.
 
Its what happened with Injustice. One dude powered through the game and got all of the ios skins, then posted his login info so everyone could log into the console game and it would auto-unlock all of the skins.

This should definitely happen again, because my phone is ass and can't get the game :(
 
I hadn't watched this before, and I wanted to watch it when I started it up just now, but holy crap...as soon as that song started playing, I had to stop it.

i thinks its like when you play people with really good connection you be okay, but when you play bad connection they are REALLY laggy

I imagine those currently playing are playing people in the same region where the game is released e.g. greece/greece, UAE/UAE particularly on PS4 if it's region locked so the connection would be decent. Post release is when we'll get a better understanding of the online once it's tested with others globally.
 
Ugh, I hate this crap. The Injustice mobile game was sooooo bad, luckily I ended up sharing a log in with a friend and still got all the unlocks. This game will probably also suck. I'll either wait for a log in share or just pay for the DLC when it eventually releases, like it did for Injustice (I think it was called the Lockdown Pack).
 
The Scorpion skin requires you to level up something to 50. I assume that'll take a while. My best guess is it'll probably take 20 hours of mobile play to unlock all the skins.
 
Do we know how fatalities on Ferra/Torr are going to work? Surely some of them would look really weird as it's technically 2 characters...

IF you are talking about if they are the victim, then it's the big guy getting killed. Girl just disappears somewhere lol

Ah, I figured as much. Not as silly as some of the fatalities in Deception (I think) on Sheeva, where her 2nd pair of arms wouldn't be affected as they aren't modeled like proper arms!

Anyways, I'll be on this as soon as it drops on Xbone.

If anyone wants to play some terrible games be sure to drop me a line.
