What does Raiden say when he does his torpedo move?
Every Haitian kid happened to come to the same name for it independently; Ayibolele. I did a google search and I am shocked it is not clear what he is saying. I love how they didn't change it, this brings back so many memories.

It was somewhat better for me today than it was yesterday. Won three straight in KotH, ok in the other matches. Patch will do wonders i hope.
As for comparing story between BBCS and MK9 - don't. It works for diffrent people (who were once ONE enity back when MK was first popluar) and your comparing a story on a Budget than one with a Massive Budget. Of course MK9 gonna wipe the floor style wise on its story section than BBCS. Luckily, Im somewhat good in both - BBCS has the better netcode and its a shame not many are playing the game. MK9 is my first Console MK and I love it. I can respect both sides of the argument but you cant compaire both stories to be honest.

Wow, Cyrax is pretty fun! I just started messing around with him today, got some really nice combo opportunities with that net and enhanced bombs... Learned a few combos, brought him to the Arcade Ladder and was able to Flawless at least one round each up to the 5th match. Then I just up-and-downed everyone up until Kintaro and Shao Kahn like nothing.
I'm intentionally trying not to learn the bomb trap technique as apparently that's getting nerfed... though I don't really understand the process anyways.
Wish I could go online again, hopefully Tuesday when the store's suppose to be back up.

People complaining about the difficulty of MK9's 2 on 1s and Story mode boss fights need to go back and play MK2. I couldn't even make it past the 6th or 7th guy on the ladder today. MK9 has softened me up.

Nice! I'd really like the Jade one if you'd be so kind.Diablohead said:360 codes.

I would offer to trade some 360 DLC to another game, but I don't have much right now... Just the "officer" character and the bonus maps for Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood.
Other than online This game is great. rebooting the series was the right thing to do and they really made a solid Fighter this time.
Also big props for making the company logos skippable.
However having finished the story mode I'm worried about the future of the franchise. It seems like they written themselves right back to the same post mk3 shit they were avoiding with this game.

Hey guys, Aussie here, just for any that want to know I played my first online games today in king of the hill, I went 15-0 and then won a couple and then got dropped :/ I then re-joined and won 8+ in a row and I got an achievement for 10 wins in a row in king of the hill. so it takes your last matches into account. I'm shocking at the game so don't care but i know lots of folks are chevo hunters
{edit} i mean 0-15

I fucking hate that goddamn company who somehow cheated their way into gaining the license to make MK figures.
ALL of their past attempts have been goddamn awful, and these are even worse.
I can only imagine a super ultra detailed Scorpion or Kinatro figure by NECA.

This is a temporary solution that will only be available while Playstation Store is unavailable. Once PlayStation Store is back up, users will be able to enter the Kombat Pass code included with Mortal Kombat or purchase a Kombat Pass for $9.99.

NRS released the concept art from the Krypt, apparently.
I should ask in the High-res art thread if anyone has them bigger.

So like character tweaks hit on the ps3 right now.
Looks like a lot of characters got damage nerfs to there BnBs so it might be a global damage scaling nerf. Smoke and noob saibot seemed to have been effected the most, and cyrax's bomb trap is still in.
Kano and baraka got buffed as well

Reduced some of Kung Laos combo and overall damage.
Reduced the damage on some special moves.
Increased the damage scaling after Kitanas Enhanced ground fan toss.
Adjusted some juggles damage scaling.
Reduced the damage on some basic combos that were doing too much damage without using any meter.
Increased Sheevas damage output for several of her moves and attacks.
Temporarily Changed around some of Sonyas fighting style properties to reduce her ability to lock someone down in block stun.
Changed Kanos Towards + to a low block.
Reduced the recovery on Kanos Upball to be closer to Johnny Cages Flip Kick recovery.
Increased the damage of some of Barakas special moves and attacks.
It is easy to juggle combo after hitting someone with Barakas chopchop on the ground.
Increased the damage scaling on a frozen opponent.
Barakas Away + combo is now a true popup.
From TYM
Also looks like brady is going to be talking about the patch tonight on some live stream thing, I guess he would go more in depth on what specials were nerfed and why.

People on TYM are saying Smoke's BnB's got nerfed 10-20%...I'm not noticing a difference of more than 2% on his Smoke Bomb OTG combo, so I'm wondering what BnB's they're referring to.Khezu said:

So long 61% x-ray with sub since the character gets frozen after the 3rd hit lol
Wonder what it will drop down to.

Yeah, they've taken a lot of cues from SFIV.sleepykyo said:
Slamtastic said:
Really? Fine, I'll bite.
They have nerfed Ryu's dragon punch in every installment. Ditto for Cammy. Ken got a damage boost on his jab dp but increased the recovery in AE. Sagat lost 1/3 of his damage and only recently got a little boost back in AE. Balrog's headbutt got the damage decreased in AE.
But hey, if you like "online safe" AA with piss poor netcode, more power to you. People called it on Kung Lao's hat spin and Raiden's teleport and everyone dismissed it and sure enough both were extremely prominent in PDP.

You said "online populated with AA special spam".sleepykyo said:
Which is true even if the moves aren't as good anymore.
also i left the front S off of SFIV specifically

Let's see if we can do this sans lagSouther said:
Finished the Tower. Did it on bit-sized bites, every day. Only did over 10 challenges per session on my first and last (today) sessions.
I'm disappointed in myself because I needed the computer's "help" in challenges 300 and the one with the three Goros. Those two were the challenges I didn't finish in a few tries. Must've done the 3 Goros one 12-18 times and the final one 8-12 times.
It was noticeable how those two became easier after a certain point. Oh well.
Third hardest for me was the Mileena/Baraka one where you need to time your jumps against the zombies. Everything else was a lot easier than I expected, specially the 3 Shao Khans.
Also, you can't see Mileena's Flesh Pit in the Nekropolis? I was... Ahem, looking forward to that...

So what's the best way to play this online with the least amount of lag? I just finished a private match with a friend and it was pretty bad. Are rooms the way to go?

GGs everyone.
Except for the whole netcode thing.

Quan Chi needs buffs.
Had no idea his buff special went away on CHIP damage until now.
And the runes are pathetic unless you do the EX trap. Regular fireball is much better.
