So after all the hub hub about how amazing MK’s netcode was and them hyping the shit out of it, is this really what we are going to have from here on out in MK?
it is virtually unplayable for me on XBL. people I play SSF4 with fine is getting like a literal 1/2 second delay. unplayable. and shit i thought MvC3 online was bad, this is way way worse.
i’m hoping it is just day 1 jitters because my friend and i noticed some other issues w/getting into the same room and what not.
IMHO its kinda strange hearing about all the people who have had bad online experiences with MK9. I on the other hand have had great success with the online component of the game.
Ive played all the online modes and TBH I really have to hand it to the MK Team, like I said before IMHO they did a great job with the net-code = ) ( CAN PULL EVERYTHING OFF WITH EASE, THANK GAWD! : )
- I wouldn’t recommend people play with Routers or Wireless Connections though as this can cause a multitude of problems, and yes even just playing with a Wired Router can still cause some nasty issues, including lag. - But I understand that this is the only option for some, so you gotta do what you gotta do.
Tekken was shit online at first, then got a patch. Hopefully MK can get a patch too. But honestly, you had to expect the netcode to be ass coming from MKDC.
My online experience has been shit. I been in matches with tons of input delay. Blocking on reaction was impossible. Even doing 1v1 didn’t do much to ease the problem.
I played King of the Hill mode today, and that was almost unplayable. All my combos, and me trying to learn the movement of the game went down the toilet. I was not impressed but I’m sure it will get better soon.
Played 10 or so matches tonight and every single one had pretty significant input delay. I sincerely hope there’s a patch incoming, because other than this hiccup, I’m enjoying this game IMMENSELY!
I’ve had some great problems with lag… To the point where it completely destroyed my combos, allowing noobs (not the character) to make some stupid come-backs and win, because it didn’t read the next button in my combo. I’ve had matches where there was a few lag spikes here and there, but, for the most part, playable, and to a point where it’s so bad I want to quit. I thought this netcode was supposed to be great, or something?
on PS3… and no, unlike what everyone thought 3 weeks ago, online is not filled with kratos users… out of around 80 games played online, I’ve only seen him about 4 times. No more than 5. Defiantly not 6 or higher.
This game is too great to have lag online… i want to enjoy it… I am enjoying it, but, it would be better without lag.
You mean people actually played that game? I sure as hell didn’t. I don’t even know who exactly was in that game… Just some people from DC and MK… Only ones that stick out are batman, shazaam, and Lex… and a few other justice league dudes and villans.it should have been called MKvJL. And, as far as MK… Sub-Zero, Scorpion, and Lui Kang? I don’t even know if Reptile were in that game. or anyone else, outside of Baraka, Kitana, Shang Tsung, and Raiden.
I have no problem playing 1v1 or 2v2 player or ranked matches. And by no problem, I mean no lag (lag =/= input delay) most of the time. There are the matches that I join where the game has a false indication of what their ping is, but it’s fine other than that. The input delay in general could be better but I can deal with it.
Now, the lag on KOTH is VERY bad. They did a bad job compared to SF4/SC4 in this part. I ALWAYS get repeated lag at an interval if I’m playing or spectating. People that I’ve played that have 4 bars have 3 or 2 bars once in the lobby. I really think they added this in at the last minute as it’s pretty bad right now.
