Kombat Kast (31.08.2015 - 4:00 PM EST)- Patch Notes Stream

This news is exciting and all, but it really does expose the problem of this game.

Kotal and Ermac's buffs notably. They're nice, but the whole time I was thinking "But it isn't a 50/50". These variations are looking great right now, but because of the mixups the other variations offer it doesn't even matter. You're giving up such a great option.

The netcode's not changing; we just need to get used to that. It's not something you can just patch, I don't think.

Guy named Aris mentioned on his podcast that he talked to someone from NRS about it. Apparently the Netcode is something that's hardwired into the base code of the game. It isn't something that can be patched, so Mortal Kombat's online aspect will apparently suck until they abandon the MK9 engine.

I hope they abandon that MK9 engine (modified Unreal Engine 3, I believe) whenever MK11 comes out, especially since it looks like NRS doesn't have last-gen consoles holding them back from now on, creatively.

Provided that they actually release it BEFORE the next generation starts.

What a fail. If you are going to announce it, announce it. Don't tell people to stay tuned. We have been for months now.
 
Why do they use those dumbass notations? They know everybody recognizes the buttons as "1,2,3,4"
 
Reptile - Changed the Floating Ball motion to Down,Down,BLK

Wtf why? The half circle was such a fluid and natural motion.
 
Mileena's B1,2 is +2 on block now?! Yooo, that's going to be soooo good.

WTF?! We can't combo of F3,3,4 anymore? That's bullshit, because it was the only way she could break 40%. F3 alone is shitty, so why can't we get a reward for using a slowpoke tier overhead? I don't understand the logic.

Yeah I'll have to see how that plays, but the fact that F3 is now a low crush is huuuuge.
 
Boon tweeted this "BIG (new) MKX news koming this week...".

Probably The Pit stage?!
 
Predator's 3 becoming a high is going to be a huge nerf I think. It's his best mid and his main way of keeping you locked down.
I know he was strong, but nerfing both his damage AND his setups is too much imo. Have to wait and see I guess.


Tremor got some huge buffs too. Lot of frames got shaved off. But my god, Reptile's puke buff has me feeling like Chrsitmas morning. Finally my corner setup can be viable against Kung Lao.

Why should you? You don't care remember.
 
Damn.
Predator got nerfed like shit. Especially Hunter :(

So why are they trying to make Kano players use Up laser :laugh:?
It's faster I guess but we already have up ball for anti air options. I would rather have a straight laser or a more reliable overhead.
