CapnAndy posted:I would have bet large amounts of money that Geras was a one-and-done. He had no personality and saw little play. Really, really surprised they saw something salvageable there. He was one of the most popular tournament characters for a long time though? He had a lot of KBs and they were all things that would trigger throughout the normal course of a match. Other characters had to fish for the KB requirements first.

exquisite tea posted: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.

Schnitzler posted:She's not the only character who can combo of throws with kameos. Baraka/Cyrax has an easy one, Raiden/Striker a more tricky one. They also tell you that you can do this in either the tutorial or one of the combo trials, so I think it is intentional. Ah, okay, I haven't gotten around to the tutorials yet so I did not know that.

Hmm, seems some of the brutalities are bugged. Reptile's dash brutality says to hold Y and I do and nothing happens. I watched AF0xyGrampa do it the other day so I wonder if it's just not working on the Steam version. E: I think some of them are just mislabeled. Reptile's second fatality distance is listed as close when it's actually mid. Regrettable fucked around with this message at 07:05 on Sep 21, 2023 |

Unbound posted:I just played around with this one and I was able to get it to work, but its kind of like his slide brutality, where if the move kills after a certain trigger point, it just won't work. For this one you need the first part of the move, where he dashes past them, to be the killing blow while holding 2. I could have sworn I killed them on the first hit a few times. Either I was mistaken or it was something to do with damage scaling based on stats in invasion mode. I can get it to work consistently outside of the mode as long as the other person is 30hp or less. Sucks that it's such a stringent requirement because I was hoping to use it as a quick brutality for the mode. The slide one has quite a bit more leeway but it and some of the others take a pretty long time. I know the uppercut is nice and quick but sometimes they jump the instant you do it so it doesn't count.

Buschmaki posted:I am not afraid of the man who has practiced tge 40% combo 1000 times, I fear the man who has practiced winning in neutral and oki 1000 times.... This. Having good fundamentals is better than having big combos. You can pick people apart while they spend the entire match fishing for their combos. A lot of bad players will complain about people spamming or not doing combos because they don't know how to deal with basic stuff. Complaining about spamming is especially funny because it means they can't even adapt to one or two basic moves.

Either way is fine but def pump it up above where it needs to be and let it drop into place. You should have a near 100% success rate using that method. E: Also whoever said Invasions are too long was spot on. I cheesed my way through it by putting all stat points into attack and uppercutting my way to victory and it still took almost 3 times as long as beating story mode.

Unbound posted:I could only imagine the slog it would be for the fights to be 2 rounds. Fun idea, but man did it just feel like I was just doing the same thing for like 7 hours. A bunch of the boss fights are including about half of the ones that unlock after you beat it. Some are 3 rounds. e: Also 7 hours is being generous. It took me at least twelve and I only had two fights that I failed. One I failed once and the other I failed 3 times and had to respec to beat it because the survival gimmick that happened at the start of round 3 did absurd damage. You could maybe cut a couple hours off that if you didn't play every single node like I did. Regrettable fucked around with this message at 08:44 on Sep 23, 2023 |

exquisite tea posted:The invasions are okay as a seasonal gimmick but I hope that they do something to mix it up in the future, maybe some more map features or secrets because it gets a little boring fighting 12 slightly different versions of Baraka. I miss the character towers from MK11, those were a good excuse to grind out some gear and learn a new combo or two. If they just made them about half as long I think it would be fine. Also, if I could get some of the really nice color palletes they show off instead of the drab brown and orange of this season. I get they're going for a fall motif but I just don't think it looks good on a lot of the characters and want something more colorful.

exquisite tea posted:There's a lot that makes MK unique from other 2D fighters, but as always, the frame data tells the whole story. In this game ~almost~ everything that is -7f on block is considered safe, in that most characters cannot punish you for throwing it out. There are a couple exceptions like Li Mei's metered reversal or Kung Lao's 1, but it helps to know that when looking at all the input data. So when I'm picking up a character for the first time the things I look for are... This is a good post. One general thing I will add is that throws in this game are considered highs so they can be ducked. However if the person ducking blocks or tries an attack you can still throw them. This can be very useful against people who try to D1 to steal turns.
