So this is probably a question for MarkMan, but are you basically S.O.L. if you didn't preorder the KI stick? Like not just now, but in the foreseeable future?

Oh man I am so happy I beat a player who was just button mashing and I could tell so... No combos, just fireballs and tiger fury. But I am still having problem with the general "fighting game mechanics" if it makes sense ... wait for opportunities to attack, don't panic, get the fuck out of the corner ... I can't do those.
 
Does the Pin Ultimate edition not come with two pins - Jago and KI logo? I got my Pin Ultimate edition yesterday and saw that the two pins weren't in the package. I thought they came with it. Anyone know?

Check every bit of packaging. I read they come in a separated envelope/bag.
 
Holy crap, thanks guys. Didn't throw out the package and box yet, was still in the garage. Went to check it again and it was at the bottom. Thanks so much, whew.

So do I have to pay 40 dollars to the Ultimate / Ultra pack even though I got the 20 dollars version as a gift from Microsoft?

There's no way to pay 20 bucks to upgrade?

IIRC. There is no option to upgrade at the moment. You have to wait till they finally implement it or pay the $40.

They did say they would bring that option.

We are looking to fulfill remaining orders by early to mid. December. You might be able to find a stick at a GameStop retailer, otherwise.

If you're in Canada, Best Buy Canada and Futureshop will be getting some too.

I just beat the 16 basic Dojo challenges. I hope I'm not the only one that found that pretty hard at times.

This game is honestly probably the best fighter I've played in a while. It really does teach the player how to do things rather than button mash. Even though I normally have a tendency to button mash, I actually have a pretty good grasp on a lot of different moves!

It was honestly much easier than I thought, you just have to work you way through the larger things, at least that's how I did it. get the first 3 steps right, then add another one, than get that right, then add another one and so on.

Now to transfer that into a real match is something different because my brain throws away pretty much everything if I fight a human person.

That's pretty much what I did but at times I had to use the right analog stick because I was having a hard time doing the right combination on the d-pad. I have to say, it was a lot less frustrating than the Mortal Kombat tutorial - and that was a much shorter tutorial! I also felt like I was getting progressively better as I did the KI tutorial too. Certain things t hat I had a lot of trouble with in the beginning, I could do extremely well later (when you pretty much had to because it was part of a complex combo).
 
As the person who invented Halo tea-bagging I decided to introduce my newest invention the KI tea-bag. I see its started to catch on the more matches I play. After all, there is no greater humiliation than getting tea bagged by a werewolf

You sure? Cuz when I go it says its going to charge 39.99. Has anybody upgraded successfully for 20 bucks?

I'm not sure. I have my Xbone but I'm not in America till the 30th. They previously said the price would be minus whatever you already have. Doesn't mean its working like that.

I am probably between novice - medium in terms of being good at fighters.

But I totally can't do light tiger fury in dojo mode :( I did it once, and I'm doing exactly as the input says, is there something I'm not getting do I just suck? The rest has been super easy.

Edit - Ignore this, didn't know you had to be close -_-

maybe I missed it, but on the controller you can do the combo breaker with the right stick which is very handy, can you also do the shadow counter or counter breakers with some "shortcut" ? The two mediums are hard to hit sometimes.

Some GameStop locations showed a release date of today (11/23/2013), but none have them yet (that I've found), and they have no info on when they'll have it. I was told to check back daily for shipping info.

what do the numbers on the player card mean?

The first number is the single player rank, the second is your multiplayer rank.

I have heard people's mics when I play online, does Kinect pick up my voice automatically and send it to them or would I have to have my headset connected for that?

I'd be careful of having kinect pick up your voice. Should be an option to mute your mic and kinect.

Friend of mine was talking about how he was watching a stream, and a kid didn't know he was being heard, and was talking so much shit without realizing it.

He got destroyed.

Pretty sure Kinect voice chat is disabled by default, unless KI has its own setting
