Are the klues on the final invasion map working properly? One of them was KCIRT TAH so I thought all right, that's clearly Kung Lao. So I picked him in character select and completed the fight, but the path didn't open. Then I tried again it with Raiden and even Ashrah, at which point I think we're squarely out of notable hat guys as far as the MK roster is concerned. Then there was another node that was "bring the element that creates life." I brought Rain with an Ice Talisman just to be sure, and still nothing. None of the other klue nodes were all that complicated so I wonder if something just isn't working.

Haven't gotten that far but it's probably Kung Lao Kameo's fatality not Kung Lao main character

Yeah it’s this.

Related: anyone know how to do the klue that’s “flipping out”? I thought maybe it was switching stance a bunch of times, no dice.

element that creates life is a mk movie reference, kitana tells to liu kang before he fights subzero. you did right bringing rain but you gotta do his fatality at the end.

there is no knowledge that is not power.

MK11 PC port was solid and MK1 is also good. Unfortunately the FB/menu screens are locked to 30fps but they eventually fixed that in MK11 so they probably will with this, too. Remember to turn off Chromatic Aberration so that everything doesn't look like a blurry mess.

There's a mod to fix the framerate just like at the launch of MK11 but it was made with the prerelease version and I think it needs to be updated because it made Reptile's face get smushed in.

When I am doing a special move enhanced, should I be holding down the trigger, or tapping them all at once?

Not going to lie, an xbone controller is a little tricky to play this on, should I swap in a ps4 one instead?

It's a little tricky. You want to start squeezing the R2 trigger before hitting the button so that they land at the same time for the EX. I preferred when it was on R1 but that's obviously reserved for kameos now. You can also just spam R2 and that usually gets it to come out. Remember that MK is a negative edge game by default and you probably want to disable that.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

Just want to point out the best pre-fight dialogue from the datamining stuff:

Peacemaker: Aquaman? The Deep? What's with all the fish fuckers?!

I definitely meet the minimum system requirements, too. 1070 might be a tad on the weak side but it requires a 980 so it should be good, no? I don't think this game looks significantly different from MK11 which ran just fine

I believe I have pinpointed what causes the crash, it's the changing levels in the background during the stage select screen. I have no idea how to fix it though.


EDIT: If I put the game on absolute toaster settings it runs great and the game doesn't crash. Graphics aren't everything, but man it's rough to play with everything looking like a spruced-up version of that Reboot cartoon from the mid-90s. My PC's like seven years old at this point so it's probably time to upgrade but I'm still gonna hope there's some kind of possibility for a patch to make things a bit more efficient so I can up the graphics a little

When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world Diabeetus.
I was getting pissed that I didn't have my five kameos unlocked until I realized you actually have to earn these and the five in the pack are later on.

Holy poo poo my brain is broken from years of just paying for unlocks. Good on Netherrealm for having at least something unlockable.

The price is pretty egregious, especially considering you unlock a kameo for every 5 levels you gain. You'll have them all by level 25.

It's not really for normal players. It's for tournament organizers who need to unlock all that on 10+ systems.

Big Dumb ungabunga axe with command throw strings and then a stance switch? Yes please :allears:

Raiden is fun in this too honestly. Still wrapping my head around Rain, he's kind of bonkers.

Almost done with the story mode. Last chapter I think.

I had rock bottom expectations for this, and though I don't know how it'll be competitively, I gotta say I'm pleasantly surprised. I only bought it on the basis of the comprehensive accessibility options. And they're excellent. Other than the screen reader having an utterly horrendous voice and not being able to adjust the speech rate at all

And Raiden is good again. That's weird.

Haven't gotten to test her out but Tanya seems like my type of character, absent Jade. Glad that style of play has some representation. Shang is pretty dope in this too. Will also probably give Rain a go too.

Very glad to be wrong about the quality of the game because I really expected it to be lovely.

I don't give a drat about plot particulars at all but drat the story gets really incredibly stupid by the end though.

I started invasions, got to the first thing with a clue, and was deeply confused because while I could unscramble the simple motherfucker easily enough, DESTROY THE WORLD seemed so vague that I didn't understand what the game wanted me to do. Wreck up the stage? There are no interactables! So I looked up the solution, and... oh. I was way overthinking it. Use the move that literally destroys the world, got it. My fault, really.

Also I'm doing so many unintentional Brutalities. I like to throw uppercuts!

This is so weird because the blow up the world fatality makes way more sense as a solution but my stupid rear end interpreted it to mean “destroy the tables and chairs and poo poo in the background” which I did by rolling around as reptile. And it worked, it cleared the path for me.

Maybe I'm just a fighting game scrub but the tooltip that suggests you always block down and then release it to block up if you see a standing hit coming was something I wish I would have seen years ago.
