I’m playing on pad.
Played MK9 last couple of weeks with a stick since it had some annoying inputs like 1+2.
I used:
LP TAG RP
LK BLK RK
Dunno what I mapped the 2 useless buttons to.
MKX doesn’t have any of these weird inputs though, and stuff like JK xx Teleport punch with Scorpion seems really easy to cancel, so I most likely gonna stick with pad, no pun intended.
The game doesn’t have a run button by the way. You run by forward dashing and holding block at the same time.
Oh and for some reason they switched the position of the grab button to L1 and on R1 they got the command to use environmental shit.
Just switched that crap around in buttons config no problem.
Online is pretty crappy (PS4 version). Like a chunk worse than USFIV on PC (the current Steam patch version) but not as bad as pre-patch USFIV PC or as MK9 on PSN.
I really hope they patch in better netcode along the way because shit like that is getting me really pissy.
I mean at least you get your combos done if the opponent is not a complete moron or lives at the ass end of the world.
The game is a whole lot of fun though, not gonna lie.
Feels a bit faster and more responsive than MK9, button inputs feel stricter, but it’s really easy to cancel normals into specials.
Kinda feels like a real fighting game where when you do something 9999 times, the result is always the same unlike MK9.
Animation quality reminds me of Injustice and MK9 but it’s not quite as stiff. Feels a lot more fluid.
Overall artwork is darker than MK9 and it has a lot less green.
Pretty sure the game is broken as fuck, but fuck it I can cut off faces and shit.
I’d probably stick with pad, don’t see the justification in getting one for 2 games. I haven’t played KI and I’ve had XB1 for over a year. Will be getting a ps4 soonish, or maybe I’ll wait until SFV. Not greatly bothered about next Gen atm.
It was in the story vs. Kenshi, can’t quite remember how it happened but Kenshi had his possessed variant on, he hit me with an attack and I was froze static in the air, eventually he grabbed me out of it but it’s a thing can happen. I’m trying to recreate it with other characters but I can’t remember what attack caused it.
Ok, thanks for reminding me. I remember thinking QCF were QCB in MK9 for some people because the move would still come out. It had that insane move buffer or some crap. I never got around to Playing SF4 post patch on PC so I guess Its more of the same for me, as long as it isn’t worse.
Tag button eh? like MvC assists or is it multiple teammates?
Ended up getting it on Xbox One (using a pad), haven’t been online yet. Just training mode with Scorpion, want some good BnBs, even though all that goes out the window online.
I see other forums shitting on the game hardcore.
Game is much more fluid, and faster paced. I hope it sticks around a lot longer, as much as I like SF4, I’m getting bored of it and lost interest in most other fighters. I joined MK9 late, and tbh after story mode, I didn’t give a crap about the game. Felt like I wasted my money and shoulda just watched the cutscenes on YouTube.
Did MK9 get its own little sub-fourm with character fourms on here? I want to say it did but I’m not quite sure. Either way, I’d be surprised if MKX didn’t get that treatment some time soon.
