Anyone playing the mobile game and has the new skins unlocked? Hook me up with your WB ID then
I think there was someone over on Reddit offering to do it, but you may want to ask them nicely.

I had help from Reddit

I would be happy to lend my WBID out to see if it will all now transfer to someone else. I have all of the costumes.

Man, I really hope they just continue MKX for this gen, like how SFV is doing. Still having alot of fun with it and it's the first game I've liked both the mechanics and aesthetics since UMK3.
They even made Bo' Rai Cho fun to play. I want more!

I want Brock Lesnar as DLC. I want to F5 some people so hard they explode.

It's funny how much a few years make. With MK9/Injustice, I largely stayed away from the DLC, for no real reason other than, by the time they came out, I was kind of done with the games. With MKX, I think a combination of far better gameplay and getting invested in watching pro tournaments has made it so I agree. I would love to see another pack of characters (Fujin, Li Mei, Rain + whoever please) extend the life of the game more.
That said, I'm also SUPER excited to see the lessons learned and better netcode applied to a new Injustice game. I'd love to see what the engine can do with Super moves (and here's hoping the idea of fatality/brutality/stage fatality and faction kills are applied in a non-lethal way to Injustice too).

Does it take forever to find matches online for x1?

I played ranked a few days ago, it found matches immediately. (at least in Europe)

Ugh so I just found out about the Kosplay outfits is there REALLY no way for me a supporter of the original game and Kombat Pack 1 to get those costumes other than a physical copy of MKXL?
Really makes me angry. I mean sure,its just a silly costume but considering I supported the game from the start it kind of sucks to be locked out of these. Especially when I've been wanting new Cassie costumes for goddamn ages now.

Just finished playing some matches but quit because the lag was awful. I played last weekend and it seemed ok to me. Not sure if the servers are acting up or what but it was brutal. Anyone else playing having trouble?

The only time I've run into lag since the updated netcode is when the person I was playing against had an awful connection/high ping. Otherwise, it's felt flawless.
Only thing I've run into is some "failed to connect to match" messages when I go through the Room challenges. But easy to get around by just doing ranked or player vs. player matches.

Hmmm might have been as I didn't pre-order. Well that sucks. Oh well. =\
That must have taken a lot of practice.
I've so far managed to get up to 25% but that's with using one meter. Doesn't compare to this guy.
I think the problem I'm running into is that I haven't learned the trajectory of the bombs yet and so I haven't incorporated them into my combos yet.

The best we could hope for is a Xbox to W10 app conversion.
Oh shit, I just saw that, that would be pretty good.
If MS announced this like 8 months ago when they were still working on the new netcode I could have seen them doing it.
Now though, probably not.

How hard would this be actually? I mean...everyone's using the same Internet.

I can't do a combo over 25% for anything.
There is just something I don't grasp well when it comes to this game. Granted I'm not good at fighting games, but these combos are insane.

Care to elaborate? Would love to help. What combo are you trying? Are you trying in practice mode?
Remember it's dial-a-combo. So if the combo is X, B, back+Y for example you need to input that sequence all at once. If cancelling into a special move do the special move right after inputting the combo, before the character animation.

Hmmm, well i meant strings I guess. I main Erron Black. Here is what i was trying to do.
The b,f,a + rt, into jumping y to bounce them up, grab and cancel throw then into another combo or special, but it always drops then combo when i do it.
I can do a combo until i have to cancel something to continue it. Then my brain just stops working.
That make any sense?
I am a little confused.
When you say "grab and cancel throw" do you mean EX Throw?
Can you do the following: Forward 1, 4, DB3, back 3, 2, up 1? Then when they're in the air some do something simple like Forward 2, 2, slide.
I came here to check the patch notes. Seriously nothing yet?

Cyrus definitely needed those adjustments involving the mine, it was way too easy a combo without meter.

Hmm. Mostly "new characters patch".

You should get it! It's quite good.

buuuullllshiiiiiittttt. at least we got a triborg nerf patch.
I can't deal with people who jump. I fought a sub zero last night who destroyed me 15-0. My Sun God does have difficulty with Sub in general since I can't really get out of the corner and Sub's slide goes right under my B1,1, 2 and B1, 4 combos. But overall I tend to do OK.
But this fucking Sub's main strategy was just to jump and jump some more. Particularly cross ups. He'd knock me down with a B2 (I think that's Sub's overhead) and then slide , run up to me, jump over my head, attempt a cross up (I'd block) then jump over my head again, then do some shit like throw me or d1 or go into a 50/50. Sometimes he'd jump over me three times in a row! I'm just standing there blocking like a fucking moron. I tried backdashing (not fast enough, I'd get hit with the jump in) or try to get out with F1, 2 (I'd be minus and he's slide at me). Nothing worked.
I've also lost against many Scorpions that just jump constantly. They're terrible at the game yet I'm struggling so hard to just pin them down.
GRR! Any advice?

Was hoping we'd get some new costumes with the patch...
Use your df1 anti air grab! Even going air to air with his jump in 1 works. People jumping over you should never really be a problem as kotal cuz of df1.
Yeah, but I can't do it on the cross ups. That's really what was killing me. When I wake up they're already over my head getting ready to do a cross up into combo or cross up into throw.

I can usually punish jumping pretty well with just uppercut. But yeah it's annoying as hell when they do it on wake-up. At the point I think all you can do is anticipate whether they're going to go high or low, then uppercut to create some distance. As Leatherface main though I'm always trying to keep no closer than jumping distance.
A good play will throw a few cross ups but this sub zero was doing it on virtually every wake up. That stupid tight, summersault cross over that's so fast. I just felt like a complete moron unable to figure out how to deal with it. I can punish someone who jumps in at me normally no problem, but this guy was timing is wake up jump overs perfectly.

Goddamn Alien's wakeup pounce thing is annoying as hell. I've been doing really well online as Leatherface Pretty Lady/Killer, but feels like it's time to learn a second character. I can play Jason second best, but I'm thinking of going for Tremor. Any consensus on his best variation? I think I've ever only played one Tremor online.
Most people use aftershock or crystalline.
I've decided to pick up Mileena... not going well so far. Just basically poking people with B1, 2 lol.
