Mortal Kombat 1 General Discussion Media Thread

I stopped bothering with randos online some time mid-way (no pun intended) through MKX.

These days, if it doesn't have online lobbies where I can play against my IRL friends, then I don't give a flying fuck about the online aspect of it.
Got sick and tired of dealing with people's horse shit online about a decade ago.
I'll get the Kollection so that I can revisit MK4 upscaled to 4X (and play friends there) and get the behind-the-scenes stuff when it's $20~$25.
 
Randomly connect to another player? Quick match? LMAO! They really don’t give a shit anymore. Are they for real?! WB is clearly sending this collection to die while they comically try to get whatever pocket change they can before they’re sold off. How anyone can defend this shit is beyond me.
 
Yeeeep. Well I guess if Steam Remote play works, one can play with a friend "online". But still... 50 bucks for this? Yeaaaaah. Nah. Once private lobbies are there. Sure. But right now... my nostalgia doesn't make me THAT cheap.
 
The more I looked at entire thing the worse it got... just watched Tom Brady's video too.

Yeah... can't even get the classics working properly. Massive input delays just on MK4. Yeah, fuck them. Fuck them all. Don't even look forward to potential 3D games release. Waste of time.

Man, and I allowed myself to even get excited. As usual I don't learn from my mistakes at all. Absolute retard, that's what I am.

What makes even less sense is that PC has the fightcade version of the classic MKs which is vastly superior to whatever the fuck this is supposed to be. It's like I already stated WB dont care about MK or it's ''Legacy'' (pun intended). This is a painfully rushed out cash grab. Unless some insane patches are on the way in less than two weeks to fix the online. It's over.

To be honest, I have strong doubts even for those updates that they promised within weeks. Might be just as rushed as the rest of the collection.
 
Everything about this Kollection has been rushed since day one. I knew it was over when Brady mentioned how bad the offline input delay is on PS5. The online is a joke. The game audio is broken. I could go on and on...I mean what did they think was going to happen releasing this Kollection in such a broken state? Ketchup who works closely with NRS and digital eclipse even had make a apology video over this mess. That's how insane this situation is.

Regarding the rushed patches....from what I've seen they're not really fixing much. The PC steam version is getting the best results but it's still not fixed. The console versions are still busted. Again, I don't own the game so I have no idea if any of these patches addressed any of the issues. Until ranked matches is added and the input delay is fixed on PS5.....I'm avoiding this shit like the plague.
