It's only about being a good sport really: if I play multiplayer and I am a lot better than my opponent (and you guys really misunderstand what we're talking about, it's about situations when you can't do a damn thing against your opponent) I usually give the guy a break, let him do something, for example if I play Starcraft 2 and I have to play against a Bronze League player I don't proxy or rush too early. The only exception occurs when the guy is a jerk (and you'll find a lot of jerks in SC2, it's a problem since launch) of course.
No it is not!
So if your opponent is losing from you, you let him/her hit you once or twice? Aww that is so fair and good of you. I am sure that you make your opponent feel much better standing and letting them hit you few times. That is fair Lol
And no i didn't misunderstand i know what he is talking about but i repeat it is a move in the game. His opponent can use it and he can use it to. I said try to block it, be fast.
I don't know why he is complaining and calling it pathetic. If there was a deal before the match between him and his opponent called "No X-Rays" and than his opponent brake that rule and use it i would understand why he is complaining.

LEt me give you an example: maibe like that you will understand ( but i doubt that ) and now i speak only for Raider
Lets take the winer of a MK9 contest
Give him, well any character would do for those players
Let him fight someone who doesnt stand a chance, "in a ROOM" ( you know those little rooms that are kinnda friendly duels )
Combos after combos after combos the biginner doesnt stand a chance, he rarely even blocks, and then the experimented player
uses X-RAY
What would you say to such a situation? Rider
Look man i realy dont want to to get baned here so i wont try to "offend" you or the others before you that think the same, (by all means its a free world, stupidity, ignorance and lack of compasion is everywhere ) but let me tell you what you should think about this situation.
That experimented player is so high UP his ass that he forgot where he started from, before those hundreds and hundreds of hours, and to loose even a round to a beginner would make his little world crumble.
I have games where i played 3000+ hours but man did i ever acted so high up. Ofc its my opinion, im a teacher, i work with kids every day from 1 grade to 12 and i see changes, i see that most of them are missing those 7 years of education that those damn parents should've given to them.

The game is on sale now on steam for only 18 euros. I dont understand why did they put it on sale so early? The game has been out for only almost 3 weeks so far!

Coddling lesser-skilled players isn't going to do them any good in the long run. All it does is reinforce bad habits that will bite them in the ass when they encounter someone who won't accommodate to them. As long no as personal attacks are involved, I see no reason for a beginner to get upset. Losing is a part of life, and can be opportunity to learn from one's mistakes.

Tommorow is the release date of Leap Motion the device that will change the way that we use our pc forever. It allows us to control our pc without the need of keyboard and mouse it is simple done by just touching the screen. But how is it work in games? Here http://indienerds.com/wordpress/?p=2487 you can see some youtube videos of games that are developed specificaly for leap motion. But developers has said that it is possible for it to work with evry game through mod. So what do you think guys? Are any of you going to buy it and then make a mod for Mortal Kombat? It will be very funy to play Mortal kombat without touching our 360 controller buy simply moving our hands!!!
So any modder going to try that??

Calm down first it's nothing personal i was speaking in general not just about you.
I don't know why would i get banned because you will offend ME? Lol i didn't done that or anything else to you so you don't really have any reason to do that. We were just talking here.
I only gave my opinion. Calling someone pathetic just because he/she used X-Ray to finish you is... childish and not good. So i am done with this talk with you.

Please stop being so negative and pretending to be very smart all the time... you are not.
And it's not even funny btw.

So it's my fault that you failed to understand what my comment was all about? It's not about what's good for me or how I want to feel like a nice guy, it's about everyone having a good gameplay experience. No one talked about "no X-Rays" and stupid stuff like that (though of course the game would be better without them), the thing is that pushing X-Ray is generally the easy way out of a fight so why would you use it if you're winning like crazy? The answer is you'd just use it to annoy the other guy even more and you're just a selfish, stupid little being if you do that. No one wants to project that image of themselves I think, I for one don't want to be part of the "oh, just another asshole on the internet" experience for others.
Anyway everyone does what he/she wants.

I would use my x-ray if my opponent has full meter, it's unbreakable, a breaker can change the momentum of a match, using the x-ray to finish things off against new players is actually a good idea, it's a way of telling them that they need to step their game up, cause I didn't even have to use a breaker.
Do you guys really feel a sense of accomplishment knowing your opponent went easy on you? I used to be terrible at this game, I've only improved after constantly losing to top and tourney players in my town, I'm actually feeling grateful now.

This!
It can only be good thing and make me become even better player and try and give my best to block or avoid X-Ray.
If you feel sad for your opponent because he sucks in this game and you let him hit you few times... it can never be good for him/her.

I can make up things like that too: Not using the X-Ray with a full meter to finish things off against new players is actually a good idea, it's a way of telling them that they need to step their game up because I didn't even have to use my X-Ray.

Whatever man, I'm done explaining, keep playing the way you do and good luck levelling up

To those who are having slowdown issues with Geforce 400/500/600 series cards: here's a new beta driver that's generally improving performance, go grap them:
http://www.guru3d.com/files_details/geforce_325_71_driver_download_41b3.html
C-Sword: Don't worry, I was just breaking balls and believe me, we agree on one important thing: you won't improve in the game if you don't get your ass kicked regulalry. Still I think that a community is important where skilled players are not just showing off but also support and help those who are still beginners. SF4 has this and I hope MK9 will too.

When i used to play SSF4AE (Rank B Vega) and when i beat A, A+ Rank guy, i often got PM from them critisizeing my play style or calling me names. Thats not very supportive. I noticed that people get mad if they lose to lower rank player, SC2 also has this.
It is sad that MK has no ranking system (only leaderboard) also no replays, no rematch button. They could burrow some features from SF4.
