Correction: MKAK on PSN EU Today!

Downloaded uk ps3 version today and I'm dissapointed with the patch. The only thing they have done is add stretch support (best thing about the patch), knocked the brightness down and fixed scorpions's get over here in umk3. The new gamma thing is horrible. It's too dark. They haven't fixed nothing in mk1 or mk2. Goro's lair music still cuts off, kombat tomb in mk2 still loops twice. Sub zero freeze in mk2 still has same sound. Mk1 clapping still the same and still have those aweful metallic sounds. Seems all they have concentrated on was fixing the online. There's no point getting excited waiting for the xbox patch.

I wish I was joking. The online is fixed, but the single player tournament in MK1 and MK2 nothing has changed. It's well shocking, 3 months and all they've done is fix the online and scorpons "get over here" in umk3. They obviously don't care about those horrid metallic sounds when you sweep or knee in mk1 and the changed sound of clapping that doesn't exists in any arcade MK I've played. Advertised as arcade perfect ports? What a joke.

that's hilarious. the umk3 scorpion voice cut-off was arcade perfect. lol. so they fixed the arcade perfect thing (which should have been fixed) and left in all the horrible, non arcade perfect,sounds. lol.

Okay, since both OldschoolMK4life and gamemk are posting patch reports that contradict those made by Mr. Patrick McCarron, one thing is clear; somebody is lying about this patch!
 
Really? i thought i read in the patch notes that the mk2 soundtracks and all audio was fixed and sound proper????.

I honestly think i smell BS aswell friend seriously.

i'm only going by the video that was on trmk.
the landing sound is not the original sound from the arcade, even after the patch, it seems. do you think kitana sounds like a ton of bricks when she lands? no. it's a low audible tap in the original arcade. fan lift blood trail cuts off in this vid as well. and you can hear the fan swipe sound at .03 sec. when she goes into fan lift. that never happens in the original arcade. when kitana fan lifts on the original game, the only sound you hear is the fan lift sound--not a swipe. as for the mk2 sub zero freeze sound, and the umk3 stuff, i was just going by the other person's word, since i have no idea if that's true or not.

nonetheless, if you don't believe my observations from the video, then fire-up mame mk2 and compare them.

lastly, this stuff is ingrained in my memory from spending hours upon hours playing these games in the arcade. HOURS, and probably thousands of dollars of my parents's money on the arcade, and all things mk. i was an obsessed little kid. lol. the original sounds were so fantastic in the arcade.

the only other explanation for the fan swipe sound+fan lift sound that i'm hearing is online lag, but it sounds like they're combined. i would need to see an offline video, or just wait until i can experience the sounds for myself.

here's mame comparison. you can hear that none of the people land as hard as they do in mkak.

Off course they dont sound as rich you tool, cause your sat at a laptop or computer instead of at an arcade machine blasting out the sounds full volume. I also love how folk think because its on MAME that its a perfect translation. Buy a ****ing arcade machine for mk if your that nit picky
 
Oh great, I'm being called a liar. Just buy the uk version on PS3 and see for yourself. That's the patched version. Looks like they wanted some money for christmas. People that have waited, do not buy it, stick to using mame. Simple as that.

Yeah and my bets it McCarron. Longer he allows people to actually voice their opinions and truths about MK and NRS franchise, the less chance he has to make friends with people saying Ed Boon is his friend. Infact give me an hour i will confirm had enough of waiting gonna download it and shed the truth. You know the TMK guy McCarron, that could be you if your tarnishing your good name, just to get free stickers or goodies from NRS.

wait, what? so are you claiming that the sounds in the PATCHED mkak are accurate, or inaccurate? also, if you read what i posted, i played these games a gazillion times in an arcade, blasted at full volume, and the jumping still didn't sound like mkak. it sounded like the mame version. of course mame isn't a 10000000% accurate transfer of the original arcade, because only the arcade is 100% arcade perfect, but that doesn't have anything to do with mkak being inaccurate. i wondered how long it would take for someone to call it nit picking. i just like accuracy, my friend. you're going way overboard into name-calling, which isn't even necessary. no hard feelings though (because i know i'm right. the sounds don't lie), even if you disagree.

Never said the MKAK is perfect, i also never said anything wasnt wrong with it. At the end of the day you are nit picking. Although they will not id love a video to come out with Dan Forden showing you all these sounds are infact the original sound clips. Sorry for the name calling, im british, unfortunately stuff like that just comes out with me. Im not a bad person. Sorry

He's the administrator of the site, and he doesn't have a thing to gain from lying to us; only to lose. He was trying to supply us with the information we've all been clamoring for since this collection released, so he hardly deserves this hostility and the ******** accusations being lobbed at him right now.

Fine, someone else is apparently having a different experience with this patch. None of us knows why that is. Since Pat only specifically mentioned the UMK3 "get over here" glitch and MK2's attract mode in the sound department, there's nothing to even call him a "liar" about. It's entirely possible that he meant the actual fighting demo in MK2 rather than the intro, and while I assumed the former as well, that's obviously not to say that I assumed correctly.

So please, give the misguided rage a rest and give Pat the benefit of the doubt. He clearly deserves that at the very least.
