As long as I can balance everything out, im good.
Cant wait to beat up people to the new and classic versions of this:

Infinites already

That Cyrax one works the same way as Flash's in DC. It's depressing that something this simple would make it this far. Even if this is patched day 1 if you're not worried you're not being honest with yourself.

Seems like an moderately skilled player can prevent that.

Uh, the video actually says that these are known and will be fixed in day 1 patches.Anyanka said:

At this point, the only thing I'm worried about is seeing how NRS responds to what will be inevitable. The system that they're touting sounds like it could be an easy way to remedy things, but I'm really hoping that they won't go the Capcom route of the "knee-jerk reaction", either.

I'm not even sure if they have to patch the game. Maybe if its some sort of bug in the code, but if its just a matter of changing the properties of the teleport or the net then they can do it via their dynamic tuning of move properties. If anything, if they fix this on day 1 we know they are committed to the game.
Yeah. As long as they treat it like Blizzard treats StarCraft and just makes sure they keep incrementally fixing and adjusting things, it will end up being fine. The problems with MK's balance came in after MK4 when they didn't have a serious way to play test the game's before release and didn't have an easy way to patch the games until MK vs DC.

Not to say they aren't committed to the game, but a day 1 patch is not showing commitment in the least.infinityBCRT said:
Counter example: Brutal Legend got a day 1 patch. And right now every PS3 copy has had a sound bug (you can't hear sfx) since 2 weeks after launch.

I am already sick of "pro", Competitive", "serious" players complaining about this game and it hasn't been truly released yet. 99.9% of people do not give a damn... just get over it already.

I was torn between getting the classic outfits for Reptile or Scorpion but since
I have infinite hate for Reptile being an actual dragon ninja thing and not just the simple
palette swap he was back in the day I ordered from Amazon.
But if I can unlock the OG Scorpion outfit thatd be awesome too

I'm not keeping my hopes up. With everything that's been revealed already, someone would have stumbled upon at least one in the krypt by now. In fact, didn't someone earlier claim that they found retro art for one of the ninjas but he couldn't actually use it in game (unlike he other costume alts he'd unlocked in a similar manner?).
The classic fatalities meant more to me than the retro costumes, but I do want them all. And heck no I'm not buying more than one copy. Maybe DLC or MAYBE someone will stumble on it hidden in the krypt, but I doubt it.
Anyanka said:
Yeah. One thing that may be in our favor though, is that at least the channels between NRS and the top tier players are seemingly very open, and of course, are largely English-speakers. That could likely be a difference, compared to being reliant on community managers reporting back to their Japanese superiors.

...what? Caring about balance or shit being broken really doesn't have anything to do with that.

Competitive game... lol. Trust me after enough raging by the "competitive" scene, NetherRealm is going to ignore the shit out of you guys. I just think its like the Comic Book Guy getting pissed off at nothng, there will be a day one patch and probably a few more and then you'l just have to deal with it. "Competitive" types re not whose going to be lining NR's pockets.

Anyone know if the old announcer (MK2, MK3) is present and can be unlocked?

Practical, easy-to-execute infinites affect everyone, not just tournament players.
That said, I'm not too concerned. There'll be broken shit for sure day 1 (especially in tag mode), but stuff will be patched.

Your posts seem to make it look like you desperately want the game to be shitty and unbalanced and think anyone who thinks otherwise is crazy. Maybe I'm wrong though.

That can happen. However, it doesn't really invalidate their concerns. The multiplayer aspect of the game will determine whether it's a game you keep or sell to gamespot as a used copy.
There's nothing to be really elitist about. You're basically arguing for the sake of Mortal Kombat being the Just Dance of fighting games, so you can feel like you're part of a bigger important crowd.
As long as it don't have MvC3 elitism where scrubs are the necessary evil that ruined what was a real man game, I'm more than fine with the pros poiting out flaws.
Edit: and btw, stuff like Cyrax infinite MUST be whined to death and MUST be regarded as a serious problem, not so much because it ruins EVO, but because it is ragequit material. If I'm stuck watching a dude slowly kill me with a 3% loop; fuck sportmanship, I'm ragequiting.

No, I just think a ver small group of you are concerned about something that has been already addressed an may not exist once you have the actual game on release day.
I don't care about srars and frames and infinite loops. I'll probably never play too many randoms online and if there is some great "exploit: that keeps this game from being the head liner of the Amp Energy World Championships hen I really dont care. I'm just tired of the bitching because almost no one cares about it.
So yeah, I'm sure that means I want the game shitty and unbalanced because somebody somewhere with too much time on their hands uses a technique that I'll never see to kick my butt in some video game.

day 1 patch along with the back-end update system neverrealm have will remove any infinite found after they work out what to do with it, really these early release players are doing the final testing for them imo.
All games have problems, sagat in SF4 vanilla, zero with his glitchy ring out move in mvc3, they got patched and so will this.

So first of all, take some time with your posts, helps for legibility if you finish spelling words instead of just typing them out in a mad dash to troll people.
Second, you don't need to care about srars (not sure what this is) and frames and infinite loops. However, easy loops like this means that if not fixed, the online play will immediately become rife with people using this and only this, essentially ruining the game for people who want to play online. Or are you saying that you're going to play offline entirely, or that people who want to play the game online are crazy and their opinions have no value?

How are 360 users supposed to get Jade's Klassic costume? I just found out the blu-ray code is for PS3 only.

If none of this affects you, then why are you complaining? Any changes made to the game won't affect you either. Essentially, nothing people are complaining about affects you good or bad, so I have to ask: What, exactly, is the purpose of your posts? At the end of the day, if NRS caters to the competitive crowd, none of their changes do anything to your experience so why are you trying to stop people from talking about issues that they think will affect their experience negatively?
I'm genuinely curious, so do respond.

Just tired of the same od with every fighting game. "Its broken", "it wont be competitive". The game isnt even out yet and the devs have said they'll take care of it but always the complaining. Let the game be released and actually be broken and not fixed. That i can get behind.
