Nives, he’s not going to be banned forever. In this case “broken” does not just mean over-powered, although some people feel he is that as well. He is broken because he seems to gain invincibility at random times with some projectiles phasing through him when he doesn’t block. Also, his damage isn’t scaling. So he is broken in the true sense. This isn’t something like suddenly banning Phoenix from MvC3; Freddy is well and truly broken. As soon as the next patch comes out, which will fix the damage scaling according to NRS (via Konqrr), then Freddy will be allowed.

sure, but from my understanding, i hear its a decent game now.
what? wolverine is in the game?
so is every short character in marvel vs capcom 3?
that doesn’t ignore the fact that you banned a character after less than a day’s worth of experimenting with him. there are a 1/2 bajillion characters in fighting games who have full life combos, or games with bad scaling, and or really good moves or projectiles.
none of the above hasn’t been seen in another character.
i mean, i dont play, or plan on playing mk9. its up to you guys, but it doesnt make it any less sad.
**EDIT: ** it sounds interesting, and i would want to see some this “broken” stuff, or even better, see some incredibly smart player who figures out how to deal with it, but unfortunately there isnt any opportunity for that. it might even be interesting to see people not be able to deal with it, and that gives incentive to figure out the “why” more.
If this were any other argument, chances are I’d agree with you. However, NRS has come out and said Freddy is indeed broken (not overpowered, broke) at the moment and that he will be toned down.
A ~50% BnB with no meter, or a ~72% corner combo with just 1 meter is near unheard of for the rest of the MK cast. Then there’s the projectile glitching.
But you are ignoring the fact that the character is just walking through projectiles randomly. It’s not a move, it’s not a stance, he just fucking doesn’t interact with projectiles at random times.
That’s like discovering a glitch where the character is unthrowable and sometimes you get j.H which also whiffs through him when you go to airthrow him and now you got punished for doing something in the means of the game that somehow got left out and is randomized factor whether or not it works. Ergo you will do things normally, and he will react abnormally not because he was designed to do just that, but because his coding is wrong.
I don’t care about the damage. I play MvC3 and expect to die in one combo everytime I get hit anyway. I don’t care about the mixups. I don’t care about his screen control. I care about the fact his fucking hitbox disappears halfway through a round and I feel I can’t chuck something at him for fear he will glitch through and hit me.
Pre Patch Kung Lao did more. Pre Patch Reptile did more. Pre patch Liu Kang did more. Not concerned about damage. Also, Cyrax has 100% for 1 bar.
@CurlyW thanks for the ride I’m just getting off work and I work like 3blocks from the davis stop so I’m ready whenever u r but if not earlier il give u a call around 3:30.
if you dont mind me asking, where did netherrealms release this info? can you send a link?
also out of curiosity, mainly cuz i like knowing how stuff works. why does the glitch work?
This is one of the NRS testers accounts on TYM
it got to the point where i was using freddy vs mike’s sub zero n i would straight up walk through ice clones… hey Hero, you like the one retarded easy xray combo that does 51 percent?
Colt is actually paulo garcia, lead programmer for mk9.
I was going to put in my opinion too but hero said pretty much everything I would have. He has known issues. He will be playable when he’s patched in a week or two.
If you really love freddy, or the spirit of trying new things or whatever, you can use him in the next tournament. There is still 3 dlc chars that are newly tournament legal that you can use tonight.
ye i think I will be using rain tonight, i dont know we’ll see
You of all people know I don’t combo into X-Ray. I just throw that shit out there when something is whiffed.
Also, will anybody be bringing a stick for PS3 that I could use for MK? I would very much appreciate it xp.
DUDE… 51 percent, its b4 2 1 then xray… THATS ALL!!! 1 easy string then xray, sooo retarded
Yeah, come up now. I’m ready to go.
I’m here up front in all black with a bulls hat lol
What kind of stick do you use? I’m sure you’ll be able to borrow one either way. We got lots of people using madcatz and pdp sticks. Pete is super nice and has been brining an extra pdp.
I just use my modded Madcatz SE, but anything that is useable is fine by me.
Plus, I’ve been wanting to try out the PDP
Double post, I’mma heading out now, see you guys at 5
Freddy has 51 percent off one bar…let alone xray. F4,2,1 ex hell spike dash dash jp F4,2,1 mid hell spike far hell spike. But yeah that xray combo is insanely easy I admit lol.
Your rain was pretty legit last time we played and when I saw him on stream. The only isue is he has no lows strings and you know that I “refuse to block low” lol.
but it’s freddy, he’s supposed to defy physics and hurt you really bad when raping you in your dreams. meant to be op clearly.
