The S1LENT1 and Tom Brady Show - Dont Miss Out!

Refrain from making criticism about people on the show. Thats their personality, you just have to deal with it.
NRS is far from wasting their time trying to appeal to the competitive community. Thats where the future of fighting games are at.

Lets not forget that MK is a fighting game, not a RPG

I have played well over 200 games online and have NEVER seen anyone use Kitana, Nighwolf, Sonya, Jax, Kano, Shang Tsung, Baraka, Sheeva, Quan Chi, Or Cyber Sub Zero

its 9 times out of 10 its Scorpion or Sub Zero then Liu Kang, Kung Lao, Ermac or Raiden

I deal with it by not listening to it. Yes MK is a fighting game and its amazing that the tournament community likes the game but at the same time it would be a shame if MK slowly drifted away from what makes Mortal Kombat Mortal Kombat in the future simply to please the tournament community. There are equally more players who arent tournament players who like a casual fighting game like MK9 is as there are fighting game masters who read frame data and know every single nick and craney of every fighting game

Those characters that you see are generally "easy" to play with. It was mentioned last night that, "Online don't show any skill right now."

As far as CSZ, once the psn goes back up, ill be playing him online.

Agree, they should definitely balance the two, the soul of MK and the competitiveness of a fighting game. If they keep this route, we will only have a greater and better game than the previous.

Exactly. Im not saying DONT appeal to the competitive gaming community because they should but Im just hoping they keep an equal balance between competitive community and casual MK community as to not alienate one crowd over the other
 
i agree with something tom brady said in a podcast last week which was that even though Sub Zero, Liu Kang, Kung Lao, Ermac, Raiden and some others are considered s tier, they are only s tier with the right player. i doubt many players online will be able to use these characters as well as the tourney players do to get the advantage with them. i could go online and use baraka against endless sun zero, liu kang, kung loa, ermac and raiden players and easily win as my oppenent probably does not know how to use those characters to their full potential and get the advantage with them. some online players can use them to their full potential but as tom said online right know is near unplayable wit the netcode problems the game has.
 
If their going to nerf raidens damage then they better make his projectile useful. That hing is one of the slowest as it is, and they better make you able to use Ex specials during combos if their nerfing him, seriously you cant use any Ex specials on any of raidens combos wihtout ending them, exept for ex projectile in the beginning of a combo but that is impossible to do almost unless your in a corner. For example 3,3,4 superman, easy 5 hit combo. 3,3,4, Ex superman 3hit 2 hit. 1,2,1 electrocute easy 4 hit combo. 1,2,1 Ex electrocute 3 hit 1 hit. I figured he did alot of damage to make up for that fact, almost everyone else can use Ex specials during combos but raiden and their going to nerf him?

an example would be?

Well one example is the timing on Sonya's scissor split fatality. After you do it there is like a 10 second delay before the match actually ends. Also Raiden's transplant fatality needs the audio of the electricity moving around his hands after.

Little things like this NEED to be addressed and I think it could be fixed very easily.
 
I have to agree with removing Negative edge. As it works well for SF it's a rather big issue in MK's system.

Possibly after they fix the glitches that affects game play.

It probably won't happen, but it sure would be nice if they dedicated an entire patch for the small things like I mentioned. The game is great but (IMO) there are many small annoyances like this.
