so who is going to be playing mortal kombat? i would like to give the ol college try
I’m not expecting it to be a good game… But I’m just going to give it a try and hope it is anyways.
I’m so playing MK9. I might actually drop MvC3 for it if they keep nerfing things like they’ve been doing.
I’m liking Kung Lao, C Sub, and Sonya a lot so far.
Lol. They’ve nerfed one significant thing since release. Whine more. 80% of the fixes have been straight bugs.
Not to mention you haven’t come out to many events, you just playing online?
I’m starting to think lvl 3 X-Factor Dark Pheonix is the problem… Not Dark Pheonix. Not nearly as scary when you can chip her to death. I’m not sure if turtling by activating xfactor and backing into the corner (to avoid the teleport crossup) and superjumping holding up back (to avoid the overhead)and praying they make a mistake or lose on time is working out that well. I’m really lost on this one.
Any suggestions? Should I really be rushing her down?
Me neither. I’m not really falling for all that MK9 hype. I’ll probably give it a try but I’m more than likely not going to take it seriously. I played the demo and it felt too…clunky to me. That’s just me, though. I’m sure MK players will love it, especially if the netcode is real good.
Ranbats. Thursday. What time?
Tryin to get some games in if anyone wants to come spar. Hit me up on here. I’ll be playing all night probably
Nah, man, I’ve just been doing training mode.
Don’t feel solid enough with my team in MvC3 to actually play people yet.
I’d really love to come out to events and shit, but I can’t drive myself yet, plus everybody in my family is just so busy on weeknights that I can’t really come out to ranbats and stuff.
This week is my spring break though, so I may be able to come this week.
I have been playing mk9 for a good chunk of the weekend. The best single player experience in a fighting game i can remember. It is a ton of fun, and pretty gorgeous at times. Unfortunately, didnt have alot of good comp, but this game is feeling pretty solid.
Local opinion. I’m running MK on PS3.
Ban kratos? Keep him?
Don’t care?
My vote is to keep him. Chances are he’s not top, and let’s have some fun.
I vote to keep him as well for the reason that robin listed. Here’s to hoping hes not SC4 yoda (Even tho Hilde Broke the game).
you can’t not ban kratos, are you serious, a fucking shitty character can win if half the population has no experience playing against him.
Eh. If we run mk gatherings and ranbats (which everyone goes to) on ps3, everyone has equal access to playing against him even if they don’t own a ps3.
I don’t think it’s that serious.
Doubt it really matters. Apparently taken from the tier list in the MK9 strategy guide, good ol’ Kratos was thrown head first into the Shit Tier level. Don’t know who exactly came up with this, but I can see that list changing drastically in about a month or so.
But anyways, I say keep him. Who wouldn’t enjoy seeing Kratos tearing people to shreds in this game?
I’m not taking MK9 seriously but I do think it’s unfair for only xbox people to have to fight him. A general rule of fighters is if you’ve no experience w/ a character, you can lose to it. Put a soft ban and if both people agree, then Kratos can be used.
Quite honestly, I think it’d be silly to just flat out ban Kratos from seeing the light of day. It’d be a waste of a perfectly good character IMO.
I’d say that this is the best option.
you wanna play casuals who cares but any tournament’s run, sad as it sound should use the basic tournament standard, (evo standard). which i am sure will have no kratos.
but word on the street is he is trash anyhow, but still.
Soooooooooooo this game is fucking awesome. :rock:
Lots of sweet characters but Ermac and Kung Lao are my Day 1 favorites so far.
I’ve got a paper to crank out tonight, so I don’t think I’ll be at SM. I’ll be taking breaks from my paper to play MK online though. :badboy:
wow! Is the online for MK9 as terrible for you as it is for me? Every game has dropped, or just lagged out. So for, the experience is unplayable.
