Mortal Kombat XL Getting New (Final?) Balance Patch On October 4th

To coincide with the launch of the improved netcode/Kombat Pack 2 on PC, the game will get a much wanted/needed balance patch on October 4th. Competitive players have been pretty vocally asking for one for months, particularly with regards to nerfs to Alien (and a lesser extent Mileena), and buffs to certain characters that are not tournament viable.

Netherrealm will go through the balance patch on their Twitch stream on Monday, Oct 3rd, a day ahead of the release of the patch, at 3:00pm CDT.

Edit full patch notes (sounds like this isn't necessarily final patch for the game - they are keeping an eye on the game)

It would be extremely idiotic to nerf Mileena, she is perfectly balanced. The other characters are the ones that should be buffed.

Alien is retarded, just fucking delete that shit.

If every other character needs a buff, wouldn't it be more realistic to nerf one of Mileena's tools slightly instead? Alien can be nerfed into non-dominant pretty easily with some changes to armor and block strings, no?

Is a third Kombat Pack still happening or is that not a thing?

Some people are convinced it is, suggesting that everything Boon tweets is a hint it's coming, but I always read those tweets as him expressing frustration over those people who incessantly bug him about KP3. I would guess 90% chance there's no more DLC characters coming to MKX. Would be happy if I'm wrong, but doubt that I am.

I really hope they don't touch CT Kano too much. Nerf his EX air ball and add a few recovery frames on his B1 setup, but that's it. Heck, I wouldn't even touch his B1 if it were up to me. Alien is the only character that really needs nerfs.

Last Patch? Does that mean no new DLCs or Kombat Packs? I hope they won't close the servers in the future to prepare for Injustice 2.

First, I don't know if it's the FINAL patch - that's just my own guess. Second, don't expect the servers to close down for many, many years. This is just launching on the PC with new netcode and KP2 and as far as I know, you can still play MK9 online, which has been out...for a long while.

Wait, why does Mileena need nerfs?

The meterless 35% hit confirmable combos, where you could still have all of your meter for breakers, is probably the biggest thing. Sounds like they're nerfing that ball roll so that the launch will only happen on meter burn versions (but looks like you can roll back and forth now?). Speculation here, but I guess we'll see on Monday what they decided to do.

It seems like they are making WAY more changes than I was expecting. The teases move well beyond startup frame changes and armoring and have moves changing properties, increased armor options and what seems like a concerted effort to move away from 50/50s that have been so damaging to date?

They are doing way more than I thought. They must want MKX to continue to run alongside IJ2 after it drops.

After Injustice and MKX, I am pretty tired of guessing, my defense is bad enough with out all the 50/50's on top of it.

It along with a rebalance and PC netcode would make me seriously play it again.

Boon on Twitter: "Today's Kombat Kast: MKXL patch. Find out how your favorite character will get ever better.... Unless its Alien. ;) "

I'm hoping they sneak in some other things with the patch. A couple of costumes or new brutalities would be nice. But yeah, the main event is definitely a long overdue patch.

I doubt there's any new characters coming. Considering how production works, I imagine NRS is starting preproduction on MK11 very soon.

I already ran into a guy who wrecked shit with dualist. He was a master of both zoning and pressure. It was insane.

Yeah people who play him can make him look really good. But he has way too many holes in his strings that are exploitable. He also doesnt do nearly as good of chip damage as Flame Fist, or anywhere near the combo potential of Dragon's Fire. Basically just gotta play mind games with your opponent which is fun, but difficult as hell to keep up.

I would tend to agree unless they surprise folks with a single character. Netherrealm wouldn't release 3-4 new characters at the same time as KP2 on PC, as it's a big ask for PC players to pony up for the complete package when they'd been left behind for so long/they're trying to win them back. The longer it goes on, the closer it is to Injustice 2 full-steam-ahead production and early work on MK11. I think Boon's been pretty much hinting that there is no KP3 coming for quite some time (despite many wishing it was).

Holy shit if Mileena can't combo of her normal roll anymore, fuck you Boon. I don't even play this anymore and still I'm pissed.

Also there will be a MK XL Pack for 12.50 instead of 25.00 (Steam) which will contain Kombat Pack 1 and 2 and the klassic kostumes

Will buy this once its released, I haven't bought any DLC for this game yet.
Can't wait to play as Cyber SubZero again :D
