since downloading the patch earlier today (I’m on PSN in Europe) the online has become completely unplayable for me. More that 50% of my matches end in desynchronization, usually at the character select screen or before. Before the patch I don’t think that ever happened to me even once.
Good job, Netherrealms!
Edit: I tried registering on themortalkombat.com to give Netherrealms a piece of my mind but they must have seen me coming as I am unable to log into the forums. Wierdly, after logging in with my email and password (which I registered today), the website tells me: “welcome Slatki1984”.
So their database code for website users is as shitty as their netcode, it would seem.
Either way they are probably going to patch it one more time to really fix that free Skarlet glitch, so I’m going to end up buying the Season Pass anyways.
Yeah, it is stupid. But it probably has something to do with the amount of patches a game is allowed, and the size of DLC before it can be enforced. IDK though.
Yeah that makes sense. Those patches are too expensive and too much of a hassle for game companies to deal with. They should inform all players about it to download it for their MESSAGE OF THE DAY that they don’t update.
I actually faced a good amount of players who didn’t download the pack, so no Skarlet.
Why is EU getting everything late? We just got the damn patch on Tuesday and the Klassic Pack yesterday. I really wanted to play a Skarlett too since I’m not buying her for myself yet AND we are paying more for the Klassic pack than the USA did. You guys paid $5 (£3) and we are paying £5.50 ($9).
Holy crap, have you guys gone to the lab with Skarlet? She is insane! Like Nightwolf on steroids with some Reptile and Quan Chi tossed in. You can loop her Up Slash SOOOOOO many times it’s ridiculous, I have a sinking feeling NRS is gonna patch the crap out of her.
You can do about 36 percent with no X Ray, like :f:2 1 1 Up Slash, 2 Up Slash, 2 Up Slash, 2 Dagger Toss. and that’s only midscreen, in a corner you can do an Up Slash loop even more times.
I really like her, you can use her teleport drop to punish projectiles on reaction (kinda). It’s not as fast as Quan Chi’s teleport drop, but it’s still pretty good and you can do it in the air. Her Slide is also decent, but not as good as Reptiles, but still decent.
EDIT: Whoa, realised they put in a Skarlet subforum, lol. I guess I’ll take future Skarlet related revelations there.
In this sub-forum or on MK fan sites? Anywhere else I could give two shits. The only thing I see worth hating on is the fact that changes happen so fast and that the online is sucking. But both things can be and will be fixed as time goes on.
