Patch notes

Current Fighting Games Mortal Kombat
21

PDP was without the day 1 patch that supposedly took care of it. I only say supposedly because I haven’t tested it myself.

I know what would constitute a small nerf, but we have no indication of the damage nerfs of kung lao and ermac relative to each other, so I still don’t know why you’re calling one tiny and one not.

None of it is actually confirmed. Tom Brady said some stuff about it, but we’ve gotten no official word except for the fact that there will be one.

Closest thing to confirmation is Ed Boon’s interview during PDP, but it’s pretty vague.

22

Dunno about any patchs or when what happened. But last time I played the game witha friend I could no longer combo off johnny cages over head. Went to training mode and it didnt work anymore as well shrug…

23

As in F+4? You can most definitely combo off the overhead still. I just did it online about 15 minutes ago.

24

There was no patch… >_>

Kung still does his damage. Kano’s f3 is still a mid. So on and so forth.

25

this thread is horribly misleading

26

so when does this “full” patch come out?

27

I dunno what the numbers are in the game. whatever his rapid kick over head was… no longer can combo after it. Also shadow kick does one percent less. I also noticed that ex shadow kick on wake up is invincable. Dont recall if it was like that before hand. I know on wake up the green flash kick was… but dont remember shadow kick doing that too… but maybe it did shrug…

Also god of war guy from what a friend told me, his infintie no longer works. Counter does less damage, and he can no longer combo into fireball on standing opponent…

I havnt noticed kung lao doing any less damage from the combos ive tried off hand strangely… Dunno what the fireball loop with him was in the first place though so cant comment on that.

28

Stealth fixes to proration happened on the xbox version. NRS has talked about their ability to do this a couple of times. Smoke also got a combo proration nerf.

It doesn’t affect combos though. I think you might just be messing that one up.

29

Why are they nerfing Scorpion’s air throw?? : \

30

Maybe because you’re guaranteed an enhanced hellfire or a mixup? I don’t think the nerf is anywhere near necessary. Kinda weird.

31

What mixup are you guaranteed?? The hellfire thing applies to all the combo enders apart from air throw too.

32

A regular hellfire/spear mixup. If they stay standing, they get hit by a hellfire. If they jump, they might eat a spear.

And no, not all combo enders can set that up. You need to be able to complete the move before the active frames of one of their other moves start. For example, the most damaging combo ender, down to back 4, doesn’t give you enough time to set up anything. That’s why you see a lot of better scorpions ending in a second spear instead.

33

I end in a second spear or a second telepunch myself.
Every once in a while I go for that air throw ender, just to keep it fresh…
