You just have to beat one of the challenge towers. Do the "Only bronze and silver characters" one and you should be fine.

I beat the second Raiden challenge tower (12 battles, silver/bronze) and got nothing for it. :/

EDIT: I see my game is failing to connect/sync to the WBID. That must be why nothing unlocked. Have had the worst luck with getting these stupid klassic costumes.

 

[Lyte Edge]

Got Mileena after booting up the PS4 version. No indication on the iOS version. Is that normal?

Some kind soul on another board also shared a working WBID with Klassic Kitana. Logged onto it, got the outfit, saved, logged out, and logged back in with my ID. Now I have the outfit and can stop playing this dumb mobile game until the next outfit pops up.

 

[TheJesusFish]

When it comes to the iOS/Android game, if your question ends with "Is this a bug" the answer is yes 100% of the time. If you thought the PC version of the game was buggy, you should spend some time with the mobile version. WBID/WBPlay goes down/doesn't sync constantly.

 

[DR2K]

Mileena costume gotten. App deleted forever.

 

[stn]

^ Same here. Just a note to Android folks: you have to update the app through the Google Store, the Raiden Challenge won't just appear on its own. I hope this is the last time NRS forces us to play a mediocre app for costumes and rewards.

 

[patchday]

meh, I'm not wasting time grinding on a mobile app for a costume. as far as I'll go is attempt to use a WBID trick to unlock it

 

[double jump]

The mobile game wasn't horrible imo but I don't like the fact that they locked console kontent in it. It's a battery hog as well. Hopefully that's the last costume. I doubt it though -_-. Mileena my main so I had to have that skin.

Got three Quitalities and some hate mail during just ten ranked games. Feels like 90% of the community is just salty teens at the moment.

[Bleepey]

Any tier lists so far?

Any tier lis
ar?

I've seen an unfinished one on tym but honestly it's not needed. The game is still so new that new things are literally being discovered everyday. Just pick a character that fits your play style and eventually you rack up wins in no time.

edit:

woot ! Unlocked Hotshot Johnny and got the Respected Fighter trophy the legit way this morning. I'm too happy.
Just need to find a gold scorpion skin for ps4 and I'll have all the skins unlocked.

I am officially declaring the PC version dead. Last night in ranked I fought the same 5 people over and over again.

Hopefully SF and KI on PC with cross compatibility work properly and is the model moving forward, because otherwise, it seems difficult to maintain an active PC-only fighting game online userbase.

 

[roflwaffles]

Is there a work-around to get the Injustice Scorpion skin? Really don't feel like playing 100 matches of a game on mobile.

Hit up the gamefaqs forum, there are several people sharing their WBPlay account info for this purpose.

Rumor has it QLOC has taken over updates for PC from HVS, so I wouldn't call it dead just yet.

I'd be so happy with Terminator AND Alien DLC.

Ash has a lot of potential with variations. Definitely see at least two being one with Evil Dead II Chainsaw/Sawed-Off Boomstick and Army of Darkness with Metal Gauntlet/Boomstick combo.

Well

Whaaaat? Which issue?

Yeah, that is definitely a great template to follow. Obviously it doesn't help that the PC port was pretty bad to begin with.

Too bad they can't make it crossplay now!

Don't know if this was mentioned here but the Steam database shows references to Q-LOC now:

the dream is dead now. a bad fighting game launch is the kiss of death for its community: fighting game fans would rather go back to a well done game than to stick it out with a broken game.

I had so many crashes, glitches, several 15 GBs patches, terrible netcode, etc. I played through the single player and maybe played 10 matches online before i had enough.

 

[vg260]

Not totally sure yet. Perhaps they're just helping HVS.

 

[RM8]

If the netcode gets any better, I hope some people come back to play :[ It happened with USFIV - the switch from GFWL to Steam ruined online play and the game was almost dead until it got fixed.

and wasn't it QLOC that handled that transition?

Seems like they're pretty good at this

 

[RM8]

Yup. For what is worth, USFIV is flawless on PC.

 

[TheJesusFish]

I imagine HVS has enough on their hands trying to figure out how to tell NRS that the 360/PS3 versions of MKX will never ship.

 

[double jump]

Whaaaat? Which issue?

Seems I remembered incorrectly. It's not exactly a xenomorph but very similar. Heck they even fight it with fire. Nothing to get excited about although the comic is awesome in general.
Chapter 7 page 8.

 

[Troubled Bat]

Yes, he definitely does. Plus just imagine all the the intros for him as well! They'd be hilarious. I could see them using Deadites and the Necronomicon in the other.

That's another disaster waiting to happen. Or waiting to never happen, I guess.

Oh, okay. The comic is fantastic though especially since Kotal Kahn isn't a punk in it like he is in the game.

Yes, he definitely does. Plus just imagine all the the intros for him as well! They'd be hilarious. I could see them using Deadites and the Necronomicon in the other.

Good idea. Yeah, he definitely has the potential to have some hilarious dialogue with all the characters. If they did put him in this game, it'd be good promotion for Ash vs Evil Dead on Starz.

Loving Kenshi (Balanced), feel like I can play him minus the run cancels. I spent some time doing his F32 xx RK - RC - F32 xx TF BNB, still can't get it. Got the run down, now just getting F3 to come out on time. Its tricky but I feel I'm very close to getting it down. I've always been a good zoner so I have no problems with other aspects of the character. The buffs are also great, they represent what he should have been from the beginning.

Have also been using Kano, both cybernetic and cutthroat. Pretty much have all of his stuff down, just getting it into my muscle memory now. Both variations are awesome, would recommend to anyone looking for a character that isn't complicated in terms of execution. Lastly, also using Kotal Kahn (War God). Another character that isn't too hard to use in terms of executing combos and setups.

EDIT: I'd also like to boost the Hotshot costume for XB1. I have one person who wants to do it, would anyone else like to join in?

 

[sca2511]

I was going to get this on PC, but reading impressions are a bit worrying.

Any idea When tremor comes before or after predator. Hope tremor is good too

Predator should come out next week. Tremor probably around late July- early August

 

[Freezasaurus]

Does Tanya not have an alternate costume? Or is it unlocked some other way than beating the standard story tower?

Hopefully. We should be due for a patch and then an announcement for an NRS stream to show off Predator.

None of the DLC characters have alternate costumes. I'd like the Friday the 13th Part II outfit for Jason and Deception Tanya.

Nope it will just be more costumes for liu kang, Sonya and scorpion.
