So, people, how does it feel owning half a game? This is ridiculous.

Feels pretty good actually. Having lots of fun learning variations in practice mode. Thanks for asking though!

Serious note tho. I doubt this new streaming download will happen again for a while.

But it gives it a cinematic feel! ;)

It makes the game feel broken to me. Like someone fucked something up for the intros and whatnot. Dead or Alive 5 does the same damn thing. It's disgusting for me. I'm sure other people are cool with this though. Not two thumbs here.

It was a joke... I'm with you. It does make things feel weird.

People talked shit about DOA but this launch has been ten thousand times worse. Also the performance is weird. (Not talking about the X-Rays and Fatalities BTW)

Missing:
Scorpion
Sub-Zero
Goro
Story Mode
Tower Mode
Online Mode
Test Your Luck


All I have is Single Match, Training and Krypt.

Both of them are bad. The funny thing is... This will get better while DOA5 will suck for about 3 more months.
 
Getting weird performance in this. Just played ~10 minutes in training mode and the frame rate was all over the place. GTAV Plays mostly 60FPS on this PC at high settings.

7870 XT
i5 4690K

No idea what's going on with this game and performance. I'm able to run GTAV just fine on a mix of High/V High settings at 1080p and at or right near 60fps constantly.

This? This game was giving me framerates in the 10's on the main menu. But then it would get better! Then worse. I play a single match (because it still needed to download a file in the background!) and it was fine at 60fps!

Then I start the story and it started out fine with the cutscenes playing at 60fps, then it cuts to gameplay and holy shit it's down to the 10's again! I manage to pull off an Xray and whoa, the framerate is back up to 30 during the Xray and then back up to 60 after the Xray!

Then the cutscene plays at 60 and then back to 10s right after it when it cuts to gameplay, that is until the next Xray again. Rinse, repeat.

I adjusted Shadow quality, even AF quality just to see. I lowered particle effects. Literally no change. I just do not get it.

This is all on an i5-2500k (4.2GHz Turbo Boost, 3.3GHz regular), 8GB RAM, GTX 770 w/4GB memory. Previous MK was fine. Injustice ran amazing. First game in a while where it's crapping the bed.
 
I'm still crashing to desktop, I was just starting to enjoy the story.
 
Is anyone using Nvidia 350.12 and NOT crashing? I'm thinking about reverting to an older driver, I just want to play :/
 
So has anything been done to fix this shitshow? All i have read at work was game installs literally breaking the game and things being locked.

On my laptop I'm using the GTA drivers and its not crashing from what I played

I've disabled my OSD from Afterburner, no idea why it would cause CTD but you never know, just trying to rule things out at this point.

And is it just me, or is the story mode cut scenes really, really orange?

Do you have fraps/dxtory or something else activated to check your FPS?

I was getting occasional crashes yesterday up until I turned off dxtory. Not a single crash in 7 hours today.

As of now, MK X is working. Only problem now is the faction server seems to be down.
Also, I managed to get full 60fps.
I had to drop down to 1280 x 720
AF is 2
FXAA off
window box off
Shadow -Med
Tex quality- med
turned off particle effects
and all advanced options. :(
I wish I bought it on PS4 instead.
Need to upgrade this 6970, thought it would be enough for 1080p at least.

Yeah, I had MSI Afterburner on showing it's OSD.

So modes are being linked directly to online? Has anyone tried playing in steam offline mode? Does that not work?
Click to expand...
It was related to the preloading/streaming system they were using. We had all the data on our computers but the games system that was inplace on consoles to unlock other modes as the install was completed wasn't fully functioning. They fixed it now though, and all modes work now.

Its weird i just checked my steam install and by default none of the 29 install packs are checked....why would they do that?
 
Whenever I try to launch the game right now this is the only thing that appears on screen

The game is clearly running because I can hear it, but I can't it to appear at all :/

My download isn't finished yet but it wasn't an issue at all back when it was only the 3gb preload (hell the issue back then was the opposite)

I'm not entirely sure on this, but it could be them just entirely copied the ps4's system for the game, which requires launching it. It wouldn't surprise me at least, even if its just speculation on my part.

Make sure teamviewer is off. Sometimes it can cause issues like that.
 
Crashed after 20 minutes with Afterburner OSD disabled. Just as I'm getting into the story and forgetting about the crashes it crashes to remind me.

The story cut-scenes have really odd colouring though, very orange and dark.

Kinda regretting getting it on PC, should have bought on it on Xbox One. This port is a fucking mess.
Click to expand...

I only paid £18.50 for it and I'm really regretting it right now. I think it could be a good game, but every time I crash a little piece of me stops giving a shit about the game and I get closer to just writing it off.
 
The game looks better than the console versions and runs fine for me. There's just hiccups here and there relating to downloads, frame locks, and menu hiccups.

Just looked at the console version of this and no thanks.
 
Guys, I'm running this on a legit toaster. For real, I need to play MK9 on mid-low settings, and yet this game hasn't crashed even once. Of course it runs like crap even with everything off, lol, but the crashes might be something else.
 
Whenever I choose to play Online, the game crashes. However, everything else seems to work. What a trainwreck! They should have done a standard pre-load.
 
I am using 7950, i5, 8gb ram. On 1080p high texture and mid shadows the game has bad slowdowns during matches. I am also getting random input lag in matches and in the menus. I tried lowering the resolution to 720p but the slowdowns during matches got worse.

Man what a disaster. I have a 280X which is only a step ahead of your card, guess I won't be trying out this game on PC.

Honestly, free benchmarks should be mandatory for every PC game.

I thought i wasn't experiencing crashing but every time i press online it now crashes. On the latest nvidia drivers as well.
 
Random thought: The configuration program will not work for me because it appears to want debug runtimes which I do not have, i.e. it's a debug build. Could the main executable also be a debug build?
