Mortal Kombat X |OT| This is NOT a Brutality. This is a FATALITY
- Thread starter hammertomb
- Start date
It is today's Daily Tower (under Living Towers). It is called "Klose to Death". Kombat Kard selection is Revenge, Thunder God III, and Silver Tiger.
Just beat the tower for the 5th time and my koin count is now 233,931.
EDIT: Difficulty is Medium.

So what is the deal with the fatality tokens? are they still available? you buy 30 tokens for 5 bucks, so you can only use 30 times? then you have to keep buying it? that sounds kind of bad. so unless you learn how to do the good and hard way, you will have to keep buying that?
That is bad even for casuals IMHO

It has to be specifically today's daily tower.

Well such is the nature of consumables.

I guess you can't unlock that Jax skin on the living tower because I've been getting flawless victories non stop

I know, but the DLC at least you buy it once and you have it forever, this you need to keep buying it.do casuals do that? spent money every week because they can't unlock the fatalities themselves?
they should just charge a one time fee and then you have the option to do it forever. That would make more sense

I haven't set my Kard for Koin gain and still get a ton from the daily challenge. I'm finished with the Krypt already with exception of the timed ones.

What are kombat kards? The things you use to modify your profile. Now I'm feeling the need to grind lol

Is anyone having a problem executing Ermac's first fatality? Doesn't work. Broken?
Nope, it's extremely easy. Hold block, press down, up (release block,) back.
Hold block during directional inputs until the last one.

I hate that Jax arms bleed regular blood and have bones and meaty parts.
I just checked on PS4 - there's no living tower?

Have you seen how popular free to play stuff is on mobile? That should answer your question right there.

yeah, I know, but I think the audience is different. people who buy MK are not the same that play candy crush

That doesn't mean thier purchasing habits couldn't be the same. Just because they are into different games. If people have more money than time on their hands then sure they will spend it accordingly.

I'm wondering if anyone else on PS4 is experiencing network trouble as severe as I am since the patch. I know the disconnect/reconnect workaround, but last night I was getting no data for living towers, long ass wait times for matches where each one disconnected, and even tower challenge disconnected after finding a game. This is a far cry from last week where all I had to worry about was some shaky netcode.
I hate all the meta-game nonsense in fighters, and this game especially. Just let me access the in-game content without making me jump through hoops, and having to earn unlocks by spending hours doing mindless stuff or finding ways to cheese the AI. I guess there's some sort of causal appeal to unlocking stuff in games, but for me it's a total waste of time, and not relevant at all for this genre. Just let me pick my character, select the visual options I want for him/her, and learn the game. Stop wasting my time.

The Daily Tower is the real deal.
Flawless Victories koin bonuses, on top of koin bonuses for doing Fatalities, and finishing the tower grants 30k for it's completion too.
Yeah it's a quick way to make koins.
BabyFaceKillah
Member
I ran that tower 4 times this morning all I get is 5-6k koins
Try going to endless, lose the first fight, and watch yourself gain 30k koins each time. I've already unlocked everything in the krypt, lol.
EDIT: PC version

Tried this thrice and doesn't work for me. Maybe the latest patch "fixed" it.
Still works for me after the latest patch. I can record proof right now if needed.
No. It's obvious none of the characters you fight in story mode are finished.
Rain, Sindel, and Baraka
Tanya
Nope, because Tanya in story mode uses Kitana's moves and borrowed specials from other characters.
She also has like, two specials.
Ahh, ok, less annoyed now, then. I wasn't paying much attention and didn't notice that she was using Kitana's moves.

Playing on PC instead of console lol
Yeah. Even saying "hard" is a bit of a stretch lol.
Perhaps I wan't clear, because you're not using that term properly here and just throwing around a meme catchphrase. I'm not asking for free stuff or demanding content that is not included in the purchased game. I don't like the stuff that is already included in the game being locked behind a bunch of arbitrary time-consuming grindy-meta game stuff. Again, content that is in the purchased game and available to use *eventually*. The word "entitlement" has nothing to do with preferring less strict time or meta game requirements for unlocks of existing content, so the use in this context is off-base. I'd prefer the result of the meta-game go toward achievements or something not-related to the actual usable content in a fighter. If you like that aspect, that's fine. I don't in fighters.
Now if I was saying I deserve every piece of content to be released in the future for free, well, then maybe your comment might apply.

He specifically mentioned costumes yeah? Also Shinnok.
Even brutalities? Well, ok, perhaps the content unlocks I'd want to use are not that bad. I have most of the costumes unlocked already.
This.....actually works. I was not expecting that. I just sit there and let the CPU beat me up (which it takes its sweet time to do) and I get awarded 32,784 koins.

Fucking sick to death of Scorpion cunts online.
Look at this shit that I recorded a few minutes ago. Spamming the same fucking crap over and over again.

It's gotten to the point now where I just quit if I'm paired with someone who picks him. I know I'm supposed to 'git gud' or whatever, but this is just no fun playing assholes like this. The Sub-Zero spammers aren't much better.

Stop jumping and let him come to you. Block his teleport then punish him for it. Don't run or jump in to him or you'll get hit with the spear. More than likely when he realizes that isn't working you can then whip his ass.
As for sub-zero. Fuck him.
You have a dash, use it.

No need for that. If you say it works, it works. I wish it worked for me as well.

How!
Scorpion's teleport is -23 on block. You can get a full combo punish or at the very least an uppercut.

You could have stopped jumping at any point in that first video to block the teleport and punish.
Every character is going to have stuff you're going to need to learn how to get around. If someone sees that you don't know to react to it, they're going to keep doing it until they either win or you figure it out.
