Speaking of MK1, yeah, it feels very different from the game I rememeber playing back in the day…feels faster. (Did they butcher it in any other way…?)
Speaking of MAT2…I briefly played MK2 and MK3…from the short time I spent with them I wouldn’t call them “arcade perfect.” I was planning on writing Midway (actual letters, not just email) begging for an arcade perfect UMK3 on the next MAT or something…but they’ll prolly fuck it up if they do…so I may as well not even bother. :sad:
DA GAME has his copy & from the grades A through F DG will give this game a C.Some of the characters are broken,Scorpion is still DA SHIT with Mileena coming in 2nd.DA GAME’s major gripes are as always the AI of all MK games.It seems like the AI has acquired the unblockable poke of doom,the more you block,the more the CPU breaks through it by poking the shit out of you.Second,Onaga is big & slow like Zangief but this bastard moves 2x faster than your character,plus how the fuck can he grab you when you’ve sidestep behind him?Noob-Smoke is more challenging than this idiot.All in all it’s just an upgraded Deadly Alliance with a little more features.
actually puzzle kombat is alot more balanced than puzzle fighter. no doubt puzzle fighter is classic and favored, but if enough people get into puzzle kombat they may change their views. but shit, puzzle fighter is like the mvc2 of puzzle games. broke, yet still the best
Yeah, but Puzzle Fighter’s bullshit is overlooked quite a lot. From a glance the two are almost exactly the same conceptually, except the character line-ups are different and PK’s in 3D. I’m basing this on people judging the games off of that alone.
Pretty much with Onaga, you want to wait til he attacks, then get in as fast as you can and do the biggest combo possible, then get away, avoid all his long range attacks, and repeat. I beat him after about 5 tries with Kabal the first time I fought him, but he was only at 60% difficulty. I don’t know if he’ll be all that much more difficult on a higher level.
The pillars hold the Komidogu if you play on the stage without fighting him, I don’t think they are there when you fight him.
its waaay to different for me i havent played since mk3/4 i guess i gotta get used 2 the fighting stances and the combos seem harder to me for some reason…they use to be easy to get into back in the mk 3 days (ahh the memories) oh well i guess ill have to spend more time with this i just wish the commands for alot of the moves for the old fighters would be the same…i wont shit on the game yet tho it has alotta shit i gotta try out…but as of right now i aint feelin the fightin stances, and the combos seem harder i miss the mk3 combos and umk3/trilogy brutalities
this game makes me miss mk II and 3 back in the easier days tho… im lost right now tho the stances, and combos dont feel right 2 me…
What are these infinites that you speak of? I would just like to know what they are to try them against the CPU. I can play Baraka and Kenshi the best, while working on Noob-Smoke, Scorpion, Darrius, Li Mei.
I know the game isn’t the most super-balanced competetion-wise, but it’s just fun. Why can’t everyone just find fun and a game instead of saying it sucks cause so and so is broken or so and so has an infinite? Is the gaming community that lazy and quick to judge these days? Seems like ever since MVC2 nobody wants to spend time on a game anymore and completely demand it’s broken or sucks. In some cases (SVC) they’re probably right. But other times I’m just sick of it. Games were built on them being fun. So what if it’s not the most complete game for competition? Just have fun.
It’s not that fun playing the computer in most fighting games.
It’s fun beating people not as good as you are to a point.
It’s not fun losing to people who are abusing tactics that shouldn’t be there.
It’s fun playing against people on a high level, but that is very limited when it comes to MK games, and when you get to that point, the previous 3 fun factors don’t matter.
As for people abusing tactics that should not be there, I suppose a lot of those you meet online. I’m not saying your a scrub, this brings up a very important point. I have developed a theory over the past few months that it seems maybe games like MK:D are proving. Ready for this bombshell?
Online gaming will eventually lead to the destruction of gaming.
Onaga is really easy. He hardly ever blocks, even on the harder settings. Just keep doing the biggest combo you can do. The Komidogus are there when you fight him. When you touch one it causes Onaga to get stunned giving you a free combo. If you can beat him with 3 combos then its fucking cake, seeing how there’s 6 Komidogus.
I had probs with him at first, but as long as you follow his patterns, you know when to move away and try to break one of the kamidougu. He really is cake after awhile.
What I really can’t stand is Konquest. WTF, you have to beat Scorpion in order to get one of Shujinko’s moves in Edenia (A-1). The mofo does more then double the damage on you PLUS he heals. Who the fuck thought that would be fun? Oh and, it doesn’t matter if they have less health then you at the end, since no KO = no win. Retarded.
Last I was on GameFAQs, some shit was going on about another golden chest in Orderrealm that might be Fujin. Boon claims theres more then 24 characters, so hopefully if another IS found anytime soon, he/she is not as broken as the few we already know and love.
I suck at MKD, there’s no question about that, I haven’t even experienced any of the BS like hidden-hiddens, anywhere throwing, time over infs, etc, because I stopped playing before it started. I simply don’t like the game, so I don’t have a desire to get better at it. I gave it a shot, and I just don’t like it. I wasted $90 because I got the game, and the BBA at the same, expecting the game to be cool, but oh well, the BBA I’ll have at least if other games are online, maybe CFE will be, that games looks like it’ll be fun…oh wait…
