Killer Instinct XB1: Season 2 hits October 15th. 20 dollars for Combo, 40 dollars for Ultra

Did we ever get a hard number on the input delay?

Yeah I ain’t trusting no cronus til I hear its tournament legal/viable.

Oh I can guarantee that it will be illegal in every major tournament. Since you can program it to turn turbo on and such. But it’s good for casuals or your local scene.

Then as far as I’m concerned it’s worthless.

Plenty of sticks can do turbo, and they aren’t banned.

I was happy to hear such a thing exist and now I hear it can’t be used:(

Although that doesn’t make sense plenty of tournaments allow custom sticks so why would this be a exception?

It’s not because it can do turbo, it’s more like you can program it to do turbo without anyone knowing. That and you can setup all sorts of macros which I personally can’t find a good use for, but a lot of those features are banned in tournament play and you can’t tell if they are set without connecting it to a computer with program for it.

You could just have someone bring one for everyone and just do one check

Also, stuff like that is usually pretty obvious if someone is doing it.

We’ll see. The Seattle scene for me is pretty understanding so I doubt there would be any issues if I was letting people use my CronusMax for tournaments, but majors might be another story.

I hope CronusMax isn’t banned…maybe a specialized fight pad is on the way.

Tech talk and some other threads have already talked about it being banned. Pretty sure it is on the way or already banned. Stuff about it lagging the opponent’s inputs and other glitches.

Well that’s just prime:(

I’m getting use to the X1 controller though but I doubt ill ever get 100% execution rate. At best maybe 90% or so but I guess ill just have to forget about reversals and input heavy combos.

New patch just hit the servers. Said to fix the harsh ranking points system so now people ranked well below you will still give you points. Fixes the KP store glitch that doesn’t unlock stuff even though you met requirements. Apparently Orchid’s classic costume is available for Ultra Combo pack users also.

No word yet on if this patch fixes rage quitting yet.

What the hell is up with the brightness!? I don’t like this at all…

Orchid’s Classic Costume is now available to use.
The Community Meld can now be accessed through the pause menu.
The ‘Battle Worn’ achievement has been reduced from requiring 2,000 wins per character to 200 wins per character.
In Ranked matches, you can now see if your opponent will rank up or down should they win or lose.
KI Store unlocks should now be working properly.
The KP Dojo exploit has been corrected and no longer works.
The game is now somewhat brighter than what it previously was.
Rank points are now earned for defeating opponents who are ranked well beneath your own rank.

Unofficial patch notes from KI Central (may not be 100 percent, not reported from Filthie)

NOTE: Unfortunately multiple reports have said that the patch has caused a possible error in the netcode and now a lot more matches lag than before the patch. Sounds similar to the issues SFxT had.

I just played about 15 matches of ranked though and it played smooth as before. Guess it’s just a case by case thing.

Has Anyone seen this?

Why is it that I feel, these classic costumes come from like the create a character feature in WWE Shut you mouth from PS2. The Hair on both of them is awful.

I feel like there not even trying.
