He said the apologists are the ones who write off others bad experiences and just blame their connection.
Try rooms. Then challenge people or wait to be challenged.

Been messing with Kitana and yeah I think Royal Storm is easily the best variation. Assassin is okay but I think her dash move is sort of redundant when she still has Throat slash which is better anyways because you can catch people in the air with it and its way less telegraphed than the assassin dash. Mournful is....just bad.
Sharpen is really good but the combo potential with square boost in Royal storm along with Fanado make Royal Storm the best.

I'm currently in a room with 98 players but...
There is no option to challenge people.....why?

I see. So it is like in Smash where classifying characters is really tricky and most of the time unreliable.
Highlight a card. If it says "currently looking for ____" then click on it and then send a challenge.

I'm glad that I haven't experienced long waits to find a match. It never takes a long time for me to find one.

They might be alreadybin a match. If the symbol by thier name is not white that means they are in a game or a match.

Sorry guys, I sat down to play so the server obviously had to go down, my bad. I swear I'm fucking cursed.

Thanks!
Rooms seem to be the best option to play online. Still...I lost my last two fights because of input lag (jump spammer, couldn't do any air throws). So annoying.
You do not perform fatalities in story mode. Slight spoiler:
There is one QTE later on where you kind of perform a fatality
It's the best for player matches. The matchmaking for ranked is pretty good.
Probably cause Easy Fatalities are a consumable tied to microtransactions. If the game is US, probably only compatible with US microtransactions/dlc so it wouldn't show on your UK account. Just a guess though.
I can play internationally with skullgirls, I can play people in the mid-west with USFIV, but I can't have one decent match with someone in my own state in MKX. My connection to them was immaculate with 2ms jitter and 0% packet loss. If I can't have a good game under those conditions, it's the game. You shouldn't settle for "decent" anyway, you should be bitching until they make it playable for those with less than stellar connections since the purpose of netcode in the first place is to hide the delay.

So is Erron Black that good or is Fox just that good or both.

So there's no good way to take a group of friends into matchmaking for King of the Hill, is there?
The join, then invite system sucks. Rooms always fill up.
Make a private room.

So i'm having a really weird problem with the PC version. I'm using an Xbox One controller hooked up to my PC and both of my triggers make me switch stance and the game won't let me block with RT even though it's assigned to that in the settings, this also means I can't use xray moves. If I switch to 360 controller it lets me block but I much prefer the One d-pad. Anyone else have this issue and know how to fix it?
Wait.. they're connsumable? So I can run out of them? I thought they were just unlocked in The Krypt or something. That sucks.
The Fatality Shortcuts will 'show up' for my USA account, but are simply not present for my UK one. I thought all DLC was useable by all accounts if both accounts had the PS4 set as their primary ps4?

Of course they're consumable, that's why it tells you how many you're buying.
We want to go into a public room though. Fighting the same 2 people gets old.
No, Skullgirls uses GGPO, which they would have to license.
They did write and share the PS3 stick driver.

Right now I think Royal Storm is Kitana's best. The long range Fan Lift is pretty good in footsies and is safer than people think. From max range it's virtually safe, even Sub-Zero cannot reversal slide punish it. It's pretty good to check run or them sticking out their footsies tools.

I'm currently learning Kotal Kahn (War God). I started off using Kano (Cybernetic) and Kenshi (Balanced). I also want to throw in Sub-Zero (Grandmaster) since he seems very simple. Chances are I'll just learn all of them, I always co-main a bunch of characters in each fighter.

Skullgirls uses GGPO. Which IIRC doesn't work so well for 3D models. Mostly benefiting 2D Sprites/Art.
<.<
You said a group of friends.
Couldn't you just kick players? You could also send multiple invites, instead of one at a time.
Found a horrible bug on ps4 version today, if you're in a room and have it set for vs, then go to change your profiles background - If you get a challenge whilst doing the change, the game will crash to home screen! To top it off my save corrupted twice on the bounce. :/
Thankfully psn+ online storage saved the day.

Assassin sucks against zoners, so Royal Storm is probably a smart counter pick variation to learn if nothing else.
When playing against Kitana I always switch to Heavy Weapons Jax. I always try to win a fair way until all of those assassin fans shut down all my Attacks, then I get mad and start spamming rockets lol. Works every time.

That's been debunked since a while ago and there are already commercial games with rollback netcode and 3d graphics. The issue is if the game is programmed in a way that it can make use of GGPO or not.

I am sure other people know lag as well man, and they feel it while playing this online. Alot.

Well, nice to be updated from something that I last heard of.
Just been watching this from UltraChenTV:
http://www.twitch.tv/ultrachentv/v/4214524
It's long and I'm not too far in, but they say they check out most of the characters.
But perhaps more useful in the beginning they go over all the basics about the game engine. Some really good stuff to know about the game's move and combo properties. Definitely worth checking out, especially coming from Street Fighter.

Is the Skullgirls netcode that good?
I tried learning Ermac alongside D'Vorah but I found it too complicated to learn two characters at the same time. I am not THAT motivated

Yes, the netcode is really damn good.
You better not give up, Reila! It'll greatly benefit you, if you learn another character to play as. :3
Dunno if there's a reward. There are fixed locations for chests, and you maybe have to sit for a few minutes at most. Check out the guide on gamefaqs.
