is the rivaled achievement bugged for anyone else? (complete S2 Story Mode)
I figured you had to beat it with everyone when I saw it

yea I did that, and unlocked all the endings :/
I got it, but I also completed the mural(which is the achievement art). Maybe that is what it means by complete.
Seeing that he became a Fulgore unit maybe he'll be half man half Fulgore or something like that?
All one ending, just different goals

I don't get it. My records show I've played over 140 online ranked matches so they didn't get wiped but I'm no longer Gold rank. I'm a qualifier again. Everything bar my rank is intact. I'm boned right? Posting on the official forums bore no fruit.
Sounds like it, they could bump you back to your orginal to position. I would try tweeting Adam Isgreen.

Done. Thanks. Hopefully it gets resolved.

Hello everyone,
This week its short and quick, as theres tons of game info to digest from E3, and Im sure everyones excited about the KI news. To recap:
[*]KI is coming to Windows 10!
[*]It has full LIVE support, meaning cloud saves, game DVR, chat, and matchmaking is all fully supported.
[*]It features cross-play with Xbox One, so theres no fragmentation of the community when playing multiplayer.
[*]It is cross-buy, meaning that anything you own on the Xbox One version will already be unlocked on the Win 10 version!
[*]Xbox one fight sticks and pads will all be supported (fully), and 360 sticks and pads already work with Windows 10.
Well be sharing more information on the Win 10 version of KI later this year.
Also this week, we released the last major update for KI Season 2, including rivals story mode, ARIA retro, and the ARIA announcer. We still have the remainder of the S2 cast to enable in shadows, bug fixes and polish, and of course Shadow Jago coming over the course of the next several months, so theres more KI content on the way as we roll through summer into fall.
Thanks to everyone that played, provided feedback, and made the KI community grow over the course of Season 2. Its been really fun moving KI forwards and growing the game with the community every step of the way. We certainly enjoy interacting with everyone and look forwards to continuing that relationship as we finish up S2 in its entirety.
Whats next? Well have more KI-related things to talk about at both EVO and Gamescom later this year!
That last line ;D

Amazing song. Sounds like a lot of new parts were added also, be cool if they were added in game.
I'd laugh if they gave him Thinder's old call of thunder as a projectile.
I'd imagine Evo will be an announcement, while Gamescom will be the a 3d model trailer, Tj style, along with PC details.
ARIA's ending is great. I'm very excited about what's next.
TJ's music is phenomenal. Mick Gordon is a music god.
I'm not sure what they're going to announce at EVO and Gamescom. Thinking back through all the suggestions and feature requests in the official forums it wouldn't surprise me if things get mixed up a bit. I can't find the right Q&A thread, but I think I remember Isgreen saying that the release schedule may look different after S2 such as more time between releases.
I'm just guessing that maybe they give themselves some breathing room to plan out Season 3 by tuning Season 2, updating Shadow Jago, and maybe releasing a new mode or something while working on S3 in the background.
Personally, I'd like to see them coincide the start of Season 3 with the release of the PC version. Nothing brings the community together the same way the textual streams and code releases have in past seasons. I think it would be a shame if the PC part of the community missed out on that kind of hype.

I miss what was originally shown for his theme.
"Let's get it! Let's go!"
I misread this as "Let it go! Let it go!" and was thoroughly confused.

I welcome our new Shadow Jago overlord.
I have never seen that movie, and it'll stay that way.

That is really interesting, because in that leaked video of the 360 build of KI it was really early and for glacius they just used a jago model with weird proportions. Maybe this is some weird remnant of that?

Agreed, none of the characters I've finished story with so far have seemed to gain any XP.

I didn't pay too much attention to it but I think the bonus XP was working for me. I know my Cinder leveled up twice after I finished his three story goals.
It worked for me. My Kan jumped from 42 to 43.

You need to complete all three story goals correct? It may be I didn't notice with TJ because he was already 50 and with Maya I didn't finish all three goals just two.
Yeah you only get it with three goals.
Not mine, but someone posted this on Ultra-combo.
So thats how they made Glacius...
No. Each season is separate. If you want all the characters and retro costume you'll need to buy the Ultimate Edition of each season.
If you want all the characters I would buy the 'Complete Collection' bundle. It's $59.99 (I think) but includes a lot of content (well everything) for that price. All characters, costumes, accessories and KI1 & 2 Arcade games.

It was the in development name for Kan-Ra I believe. I guess they just forgot to fix it.

Try going to Store & Collection > Extras > Audio.
Should be listed there. I think someone mentioned it unlocks at level 25 but I'm not 100% sure on that because it was already unlocked for me.
Thanks. I just purchased it from the store since KI Gold was there from the Shadow Jago fundraiser.
Can't blame IG for WB releasing it before the port was ready. Especially when it wasn't their game in the first place.

Yeah their hands were tied on this one, they knew it wasn't ready but WB wanted it pushed out.
MS will afford them the time to get the KI PC port right, I feel pretty confident in that.
Anger is appropriate but people need to start holding the publishers accountable instead of breaking out pitch forks at the developers.
Not necessarily. I like IG, and want to give them the benefit of the doubt, but we don't know what the scenario was. They are contractors and not owned by WB so they had choice in taking this project on. There needs to be some due diligence on the port studio's part to only take on a project they can handle and deliver on. I would assume the budget and scope are known initially. It's possible WB screwed them over somehow, but it's also possible they took on the work when they weren't capable.
Like this and the Ultra SF4 PS4 port, it's easy to dump blame on one party, but we really don't know what went down behind the scenes. Could be all on WB, could be on IG, or a little of both.
I just hope on the KI PC port they take their time and do it right. I'm not as worried since they've already been working on it.
