>raiden passes the mantle of blunder god to liu kang
It was alright
Why did Kronika attack everyone when her plan would have succeeded without interference if she never made a big move, because nothing she needed was guarded or on anyone's radar prior to the timequake
Also:

KEK
you know everybody does this right retard
fuck them too
Liu Kang finally got his waifu.
Literally had to become a god to lose his virginity.
It was a clusterfuck, I don't want to even imagine the fuckery they're gonna pull for 12
Liu Kang brings everyone back in his new era, but all the good guys are already on top; Shang Tsung is the main protagonist leading a rebel army against the tyranny of the previous good guys
I mean she still needed the jinsae from under the shaolin monks house and that probably would have tipped off a pissed off raiden with shinoks amulet.
Literally nothing wrong
>Treaty formed after Shinnok's initial defeat and under the terms that earthrealm held all responsibilities of his amulet
>Whoopsee fuckie doo doo the amulet turns up missing and mileena is zapping people
>Raiden "........"
Didnt Kotal turn on earthrealm at the end of X the little rat?
Because the time merger wasn't exactly subtle and took forever to do. Someone would have figured it out pretty quickly and as shao Khan demonstrated knowledge about kronika wasn't exactly as secretive as everyone thought. All raiden would have done was ask the elder God's and they would have pointed him in her direction. Why the elder God's are so complacent in kronika fucking with the timeline when they put a boot in shinnoks ass for messing with one realm is q mystery to me but hey they're God's and their plan is whatever the fuck
Elder gods are incompetent same as always. Even Cetrion wasnt able to go through with resetting time fully.
MK9 through MK11 has been Crisis on Infinite Earths: Blunder God Edition.
Kronika has been fucking around with the timeline because in some way Raiden would always fuck up her kids and herself. The one constant that stopped it all was putting him against Liu Kang.
She’s the one that made the events that led to Armageddon, the reboot and the million other timelines.
Raiden fucked her over by being “there without being there” and making Liu a living paradox with his revenant.
As for what they could do now... We’re getting Onaga and the Titans. I want to freeze kick that Eldritch horror from Sonya’s ending in the face. Er. Maw. Whatever, I just want to kick it.
Do classic tower as scorpion, apparently there are more creatures like kronika and they all have been manipulating MK worlds.
Someone spoil me on the story
What are the big events and deaths (and by who)
If kano is dead im going to be infinitely fucking pissed, i already know he has no heart rip fatality
D'vorah kills Hanzo. Present Sonya dies 5 minutes in. Kotal Kahn gets his back broken by Shao Kahn. Kitana kills Shao Kahn. Young Kano dies which also kills present Kano. Raiden makes Liu Kang god as a way to make up for Liu Kang getting fucked in every possible timeline. Liu Kang and Kitana reset the entire universe so the only people that exist are them and human Raiden so the story can go anywhere and none of the deaths mattered.
The real question is, are all the costumes Raiden and Liu Kang wear in different timelines avaliable to wear in this game?
People who die:
>Old Sonya blows herself up to destroy Revenant Hell-Church powered by the severed head of Shinnok (the explosion immediately gets reversed by Kronika, but Sonya doesn't come back lmao)
>Hanzo Hasashi is poisoned to death by D'Vorah as he attempts to redeem younger Scorpion; who then joins the good guys as a result
>Young Kano gets his eye blasted out by Young Sonya while Old Kano holds Young Johnny hostage, killing both Kanos
>Revenant Liu Kang is absorbed by Young Liu Kang when Raiden fuses them all into Fire God Liu Kang
Technically Kitana just slashed out Shao Khan's eyes, hes still rolling around on the ground. Also the Kanos turn Sektor into a suicide bomb.
I know i said i'd be pissed if kano died but D'vorah killing scorpion, what in the ever loving fuck were they thinking
WHY HER, SHES A SHIT CHARACTER, atleast let sub-zero or noob or basically anyone else kill him holy shit
>interns get dicked around like every intern ever
Imagine my shock
She got the jump on him after he had a fight with his past self and convinced him to turn away from Kronica and help rebuild the clan.
I thought it was funny as shit that Kitana throws out a one liner about not being cruel like Shao Kahn right before she slashes out his fucking eyes
Anyone else just hate this things?
easily the worst movie plot i've seen so far and that's saying something for mortal kombat
She only kills him because he's distracted trying to convince past Scorpion to let go of his grudge and join him.
D'vorah doesn't really do anything else before or after and she's a complete jobber
Only reason she's alive at that point anyway was because Kronika stopped Shao Khan from making her a smear on the floor.
I have my issues with the story, one of which is that current Raiden gets deleted and replced with past Raiden. Also what's with the scale and spikes on shao khan?
So wait a minute, scorpion is still alive but a different scorpion died?
They have time travel in this game now, what in the fuck
But hey if what said is right and nothing matters then i dont really care, as long as they can show up next game, hopefully they will add characters that people wanted like reptile, rain, ermac and robo boys
Hes still alive I guess. You cant just leave a guy like Shao Khan there without crippling him.
Hanzo gives Scorpion some good stuff about how he's pretending to be pissed that the Shirai Ryu in general are destroyed but that he's truly enraged by the death of his wife and daughter. The pain of which only Hanzo can truly understand. Them feels.
SEXY FEMALES BAD
VIOLENCE TOWARD FEMALES GOOD
Playing them yourself is pure cancer but your AI can stomp its way through all but the most bullshit modifiers no problem.
In the game, if the younger version dies, the older character also dies because they are still on the same time track. Young Johnny gets shot across his cheek and a scar appears on older Johnny's face. Older Hanzo died, but younger Scorpion was still beating ass when Liu Kang engaged Kronika.
>but your AI can stomp its way through all
what
Cyrax and Sektor are in with their MKX move sets but they obviously put a lot of work into the models so I think its pretty likely they wont get dicked over like Rain did.
I MUST CONSULT WITH THE ELDER GODS.
>So wait a minute, scorpion is still alive but a different scorpion died?
It was a way of undoing his becoming human again. The human Hanzo Hasashi died and his younger version, the classic spectre Scorpion, took his place.
Then again, since they decided to do ANOTHER reboot it's all pointless.
When you are on character select you can push square to let the AI play instead. You can customize your AI in the character customization section. It doesnt work for tag battles and you have to do brutal difficulty yourself but other than that you can just watch a movie or something while the AI grinds for you. Just set combos and reversals to 30 for up close guys and set zoning and runaway to 30 for ranged characters.
If every timeline had Raiden Killing Liu Kang why that didn't happen on the original timeline? (mk1 to mk7)
Where's Reptile?
>When you are on character select you can push square to let the AI play instead.
I HAVE BEEN SUFFERING DOING THIS SHIT BY MYSELF
HOLY SHIT I AM MAD
One of the flashback shots had Raiden and zombie Liu Kang fighting on Blazes tower.
but he was already dead
In the Krypt :)
Yeah playing it yourself is some quality high speed low drag cancer.
It was a pretty good movie.
Still counts I guess. Souls there
He might still have been angry about the whole half assed resurrection thing
>>CAUSE NETHERREALM ARE INCOMPETENT FUCKS THAT CAN’T WRITE FOR SHIT! WHY DID ANYTHING IN THE STORY MATTER!? WHO CARES WHO LIVED AND DIED IF THEY’RE JUST GONNA REBOOT EVERYTHING AGAIN!?!

In Boon's ass
In fairness it has never mattered when people died in MK. At least the ride was a fun one.
Why should I give a shit about how many hours they have to work? I routinely put in 72 hour weeks, every shift I work is 12 hours. They can go fuck themselves.
it made liu kang a bit more interesting. always thought he was a bland chinese fuck
>D'Vorah the bug tranny mary sue
gross
if the game has time travel, why didn't they bring back fucking reptile, smoke, and mileena? they have no excuse. did they write this garbage story first then work the roster from there? this is utterly buttfucking stupid
kombat nigger kid and jax and then we have mommy sonya and cassie. why those faggots? what about gaybongjin and takeda? what happened to tremor? what the fuck
>the bug tranny
Seek help, it's not health to see trannies in everything.
Both time shes about to fuck someone up theres someone standing right there who really should be doing something instead of just watching with their thumb up their ass.
I want to lay on Kotal's tittes like a pillow.
This is the right answer. Unionize those poor dumb assholes who just want to program and make videogames without suffering
Obviously because they wanted to put injustice bitch, irrelevant frost and a couple of niggers for "diversity"
Can someone explain to me where the MK12 story can go from here? Maybe the new MC will be the Child/Daughter of Liu and Kitana ?
There were too many special forces for sure. Cetrion is a totally nothing character as well. Kollector is cool though and Geras has a cool voice and some pretty good burns so I'm ok with him.
>I HAVE IT BAD SO NO ONE CAN COMPLAIN
Fuck off and die in your coal mine you fucking faggot.
My guess is that the other titans come in and try to fuck with things so Liu brings back the toughest dudes from across time to stop them or something. I think I read somewhere that Ed Boon wants to do an action game next so maybe we'll get Shaolin Monks 2, titan puncher edition.
agreed on kollector. he at least has some unique model compared to the rest even though i get scarecrow vibes from him from in2.
way too many special forces retards. jax and johnny is fine but i never clicked with sonya.
ferrator should have at least came back. that was an interesting character too. also erron black only came back for some retarded reason, guess because the gay furry liked him.
my only hope for the game is how they make shang tsung play. then i might buy it. i want him to get his shapeshift gimmick to come back and not be some half ass shit like shinnok in x. also give him his vertical air pillar fireballs
Do you actually think that's good? HOLY FUCK, lmao!!!
What a stupid fucking boomer mindset. This is the kind of mentality that leads to the job market getting fucked because you insects are falling head over heels trying to outslave each other to please your corporate bosses and make it look like a bad thing when someone doesn't.
Christ you just reminded me of Sonya with Ronda Rousey's awful voice.
>tfw a neet god
Looks like we have a bunch of whiny little faggots here. I make well over six figures, I hope you enjoy being owned by me.
ahahaha hearing her on younger sonya was definitely out of place. holy shit that bitch cannot voice act.
I'm at least happy they stopped bullying Liu Kang after all these games and he got his reward. With him becoming FireLightning Man, that might be a good excuse to write his role off and have other characters fill in the gap instead of finding a way to kill him instead.
>that orchestrated score during all the alternate timeline fights
Man they knocked it out of the part and made reusing animations for all the alternate fights flow perfectly. It went from being lazy to masterful. It was really the peak of the story.
youtube.com
That's even worse, when you're working so hard not because you have to do it to survive but because you've become a slave to your own lust for money. I only feel pity for you at this point.
This, Kotal never helped against Shinnok and wanted to offer the special kids as an offering to appease him
Idiot.
ugly piece of shit
reminds me why they came up with this variant system and how the boring tournament viable ones just suck ass compared to shit like having fire god liu kang
variant system in x was fine. characters felt complete even with the different variants.
now it feels like everyones gutted and just half assed. same with the customization. fuck making great alternate costumes, make them yourselves worm
be sure to grind the shitty towers so you can wander around the fucking krypt mini game.
god i love talking shit about mk but also really want to play but will not fork over money until a komplete edition or a pirate
Feel pity for yourself, you're practically my slave since you're a neet.
I mean, he was still alive when liu kang fucking destroyed his chest
>tfw the mk11 krypt has screamer too
fuck this
Seriously what's with the spikes and scale?
I sure as fuck hope people aren't thinking this is acceptable as gameplay. Set it on auto and go watch a movie is the antithesis of what video games even are.
oh how do they do those with the new krypt?
its almost like a mobile game
...oh fuck
Yeah but everyone thought he was dead. This time they'll probably lock him away before a wizard gets to fix him.
actual retard
random undeads can appear at the moment you use the kenshi band
I almost farted when it happened to me
Even pros want kustoms. NRS is just too sensitive to weebs criticizing their game for the not being super linear setplay. They should just allow kustoms and let people enjoy the brokenness..
You can kill them for hearts.
Hes part dragon.

Its pretty shit and I hate it but at least you have that option instead of having to slog through yourself. They are changing it in the next couple of days though because everyone can tell its current form is complete horseshit.
Ermac-kun...
Please continue project your failure on to me, I own you.
>dragon
Nice
as i said
nah thats way too much busy work for them in terms of balancing. they fucked themselves in a corner with this one. cant have best of both worlds by gutting your game for the sake of casuals and having scraps for eatsports.
Ermac is a piece of shit that can fuck off forever.
Any time you put on the blindfold one of those zombie things can pop out at you and kill you. Reptile is in there somewhere but fuck if I know where he is. I do know you have to find the statue of his lizard form from the movie.
was it shit like what this user described?also the pit was probably the only thing i saw that i was like "thats dope"
this shit is getting out of hand. The family crap is obviously coming from the fact that all of the OG devs onboard are old as fuck and settling down in life. Nothing about this game has the edge and intensity it should have. Instead poor drunk daddy with PTSD tries to save his black daughter.
welp that answers my question
if you can see reptile i would love to see it.
He has the MKX design, nothing changed.
nevermind. you fucking find his movie statue and put some shit on and its his mkx variant. how disappointing
yeah it was like that
I do like all the movie references like Kano's skeleton at the dinner table with the big leg of chicken in hand.
but you don't though.
Easily the best scene in kino games this generation. I saw MK11's story as a critique of fighting games (especially popular 2D) as a whole, but even if you remove the symbolism and metaphysical analysis it's still a great scene simply due to the cinematography and musical composition.
>symbolism and metaphysical analysis
>Mortal Kombat
MK11
HOW THE FUCK DOES KILLING LIU KANG PREVENT ZOMBIE LIU KANG FROM EXISTING YOU DUMB FUCKING NRS TRANNIES?! HE EVEN SPEAKS ABOUT BEING ALREADY DEAD 69 FUCKING TIMES.
>He dosen't understand how time paradoxes works
I wanted to call you a dumb retard but then I suddently got it.
this reminds me
jax doesn't even have a bulge
Nobody brought back Quan Chi's bald ass even though hes the most useful fucker around.
So everything since MK1 (Shang tsung sould gathering) have been kronika plan.
MK11 honestly has one of the best metanarratives in videogames ever produced. Better than undertale and MGS2
the dudes are sexier than the women in this game. WTF is going on at NRS?
So just young Erron Black is around in this game, what's the present one doing? Just chilling?
Hes there but he get zero screentime. You can see him for a second in the shot where Kotal is about to behead the Kollector and for another second when Kitana jumps in to save Kotal with all the Outworld goons.
He shows up when Kitana saves Kotal. He's never mentioned you just see him wearing a different outfit.
He's not wrong though
She basically resets time and let's it rock beside people influenced by Shinnok
You see him when kitana saves Kotal
O-oh...
I think so yes. I rather enjoyed it.
In the intros he is being mocked as "Kotal the Appeaser"
gays and california.
Ed just wants to retire at this point so he's just waving his hand going
>yeah yeah sure put a fucking burka on the bitch and call it a day i dont care about scorpion x subzero anymore they can start kissing now i dont care
I don't understand why they make him one of the best characters in the game yet also proceed all games to shit on him
>people have been calling Raiden the bludergod for years
>it was Kronika doing
APOLOGIZE
Kotal was a good boy, he just wanted what was best for Outworld.
>That move where he saws people horizontally
>Raiden blunders so hard that it forces the being that controls time to reset it constantly
No one gives a fuck about balancing t b h. People say they do, but the people who actually compete really don't as long as it's fun. NRS would have a lot less stress with they focused on bugs and just watch shit play out and balance maybe every 6 months
He got to beat up Shao khan at least once though so at least hes recognized as being pretty top tier.
He got beat up twice, and his waifu betrayed him in the middle of an enemy camp. AND he still takes her back
>>tfw no Timequake starring Johnny Cage and Johnny Cage
You mean Johnny Cage and Johnny Cage in Double... Something.
They shouldn't have made Shao Khan playable, he's made to look too weak now for the iconic bad guy of the franchise. He's like Bowser now.
>A new big bad is introduced
>The big bad is revealed to be behind everything that ever happened before in the series, in an effort to make that character seem interesting/threatening
Kronika was worse than fucking ONAGA and that's saying something. What a trash fucking villain. WHAT were they even thinking?
The whole story was full of stupid contrivances, nonsensical writing and stupid jobbing. Why couldn't they keep the MK9 writers? What was wrong with the story? Was Ed butthurt that Sub got two chapters and Scorp only one and decided to axe them all?
Fuck i am mad.
One opportunity in 5 years to have a fighting game with a good story and they do this shit.
Hes still one of only 4(?) people to beat Shao Khan. Shao even beats Onaga in Armageddon.
The twist alone was great. First it just baits you into thinking you know what is going on, that Raiden remembers the ending of MK9, but then it turns you over your head when it shows all the different Kangs and Blundergods.
I think it also shows how Kronika isn't infallable. She ended up having to reset all those timelines after all.
It was pretty shit desu. Glad j didbt buy it.
I dont know man, hes pretty fucking beefy in cutsceens. Kitana being able to beat him is bullshit but at least its directly after he fights Kotal so I'll just say he was tires.

can't believe mortal kombat is going to die again.
pretty fucking kino, yes.
Anyone else was surprised that the Kanos didn't betray each other, or at least made an attempt?
Kronika was introduced to reset the timeline which they did. The whole story has become a tiresome cluster fuck that has been going on for way too long (30 years) and I'm glad they did it. It also gave them the chance to make nostalgia bait which worked really well.
Now they can focus on making what they actually want without being chained by past story events.
>Now they can focus on making what they actually want without being chained by past story events.
assuming the company survives all the backlash.
pcgamer.com
Not really no, Kano strikes me as a man who is loyal to himself
>The whole story has become a tiresome cluster fuck that has been going on for way too long (30 years) and I'm glad they did it.
You say that when MK9 was a reboot of the franchise and did away with most of the story
Wasn't MK9 exactly that?
It was a soft reboot. All the other MKs still happened in universe.
I didn't play this one. Someone give me the bullet point versions.
this 2 post i like
In a different timeline, and the timeline we followed was a new one.
Arguably its still the same timeline that just looped back on itself.
My taxes pay for you to live, so yes I do.
I wish Dark Raiden was more involved or hell, the main focus.
The past story events is what makes these fucking games and their story.
If they were to go with the reboot again, they would just repeat most of those events. Scorpion is going to lose his family, the lin kuei are gonna go with cyber fuckery again, special forces bullshit, it will all be there again. You can't just shrug of that baggage.
Scorpion especially since apparently his family dying is caused by some sort of titan or god beyond time shit.
Lol the campaign was great. Shame about the stupid looking Kronika character and how fucking ugly the Sheeva-boon looked.
Bit overboard with the save me, save her, now save this character again, they're in trouble etc.
The story was great. Pretty much a thousand times better and more enjoyable than single player in other fighting games
everyone was a revenant or a ghoul at this point after mk9 and mkx and the best part of the game was the basic plot that they continued in a what-if scenario and brought a lot of characters back while "continuing" the story. And of course it ended like it did, they can do whatever they want for MK12, hopefully not add any new characters because the majority of new chars (especially from mkx) was trash.
In the original timeline Sub Zero was never made a cyborg, nor did Sindiel kill half the cast
>Betrayed Mileena because she wanted earth to fuck off and leave them alone
>Reptile helped him betray Mileena first
>had Reptile killed by Erron Black
>Ermac joined later

Truly the number 1 Kahn
WE
It's pretty weak that Dark Raiden just disintegrates into sand and it's just handwaved away with "well Raiden is a God so I guess the timeline crunch affects him differently"
That's just shit.
WUZ
Thats what I'm saying, instead of moving in a straight line the timeline loops back around itself to keep going forward. Its shown Liu and Raiden always fight but they never fought back in the old games, so this is still part of the original timeline its just that blundergod shenanigans with time is part of the original timeline.
>had Reptile killed by Erron Black
>had Ermac killed by Erron Black
That never happened
Khanium ain't free, the streets of outworld have to be littered with the blood of double crosses
I really like that moment where Kotal was explaining their relationship to old Raiden, and he only says Raiden was a dick, nothing about himself. If they capitulized on his cowardly side, it could make for a good storyline. But i guess that is out of bounds for modern mk
They completed ignored Kotal breaking the Reiko accords in the comic and him doing nothing to stop Shinnok.
Erron has Reptile's acid in vials. He either killed Reptile or he has him locked in a cage and is constantly harvesting him for more.
>Reptile milking chamber
Lewd.
The problem is what said that Boon and his team still wanted to stick to old characters, their stories and weird timeline shenanigans despite 9's "reboot". It wasn't a clean reboot per se, just another timeline added on atop of the old because of this.
This time the timeline is completely erased, it's a clean plate except for Liu Kang who is an omnipotent being now and 2 characters that are confirmed alive besides him, Kitana and Raiden.
It's a lot more interesting what they can do now instead of just making a character evil, good or a zombie revenant which was a lame concept anyways.
If the devs felt they had support from the community and were not in danger of losing even more sales and risk further fucking drama they wouldn't have removed simple shit like the circle game joke that Cage has on the player select screen. Dev replying with his reason being "Nazis." lol
Crying about the difficulty (in krypt etc.) is somewhat okay but only because of the time sink. I too want everything immediately like intros, costumes, visual items etc. but casuals screaming need to fuck off.
If you want things to change then be constructive and contact the developers instead of shittying up everywhere else where actual normal humans don't give a fuck about your dumb shit.
The issue with the game is the convoluted system they made, tournament mode and the stupid varities for ranked.
I know they've patched pc but did they add the frame data changes and put it on par with ps4?
Steam forums for mk11 are turned into literal garbage because of all the scum and trannies alike spamming, I don't want to go there.
>I know they've patched pc but did they add the frame data changes and put it on par with ps4?
They said they did in the patch notes but they literally fucked up the patch. It doesn't have the day 1 balance changes or the tower health hotfix that were both listed as being included.
it wasn't a lame concept, they just kept repeating the same shit over and over unfortunately
Technically its just Zaterran acid. Maybe Reptiles MKX ending was cannon and theres more of them underground in earth?
6% tower rank. Almost there
>Why the elder God's are so complacent in Kronika fucking with the timeline when they put a boot in Shinnok's ass for messing with one realm is quite the mystery to me
Kronika isn't an Earthrealm elder god which by the look of things is more of a title than a measure of actual power. Shinnok was an elder god and elder gods have rules for themselves not to interfere with the realms.
How can you be so sure it's Reptile's acid? Could just be regular acid, or maybe he's paying Reptile for said acid.
>It doesn't have the day 1 balance changes
>or the tower health hotfix
Mortal Kombat 11 April 26 PC Update
(excerpt)
>Initial set of tuning changes to reduce difficulty in Towers of Time with more tuning changes coming soon.
>Updated Character moveset values, including frames, damage, etc.
they will patch the frame data or what's missing for sure, why wouldn't they lol. changes nothing to them
>Steam forums for mk11 are turned into literal garbage because of all the scum and trannies alike spamming, I don't want to go there.
Nah dude patch is 1 day late waaa let's all be retarded and obnoxious, lets shitpost on 4chink and everywhere else
free internet access was a mistake and the game playing community are sadly majorly consisting of idiots and dullards
so much crying.
...
As someone who hasn't played MK since 3 or so, the story mode was sick. The 30fps was mildly nauseating but I get it. I think everyone is just jaded and can't manage to enjoy a thunder and fire god blowing up entire armies of demons like a fucking meteor.
Also was a good time for me to come back to the series since it's about the past I last saw joining with the future I didn't know anything about. Was like I got pulled along with them.
(the towers are fucking bullshit though fuck you with that shit just fuck right off with your 10x health and constant unrelenting stuns fix your game cunts I'll fucking find you, you know I will don't make me come over there fix it now or there will be konsequences)
The patchnotes are wrong. It doesn't have those changes they fucked it up. You can go in and test the shit that should have been changed and none of it is changed.
>Was it, dare I say? Kino?
I don't know, I need to consult with the elder gods about this first.
ok retard
>pays taxes for me
>can't actually get me to do anything for him
lmao thanks cuck
then they will patch it a few days later, like I said it shouldn't be a big problem
and the patch notes is just lines of text with sentences an intern wrote up, not an amendment in a constitution
they obviously were looking to add specific changes to pc immediately like graphical fixes and whatever was causing crashes for people lacking the required windows files
patching on steam doesn't cost money
it's really out of control how people behave though
the game will be on par patch wise with the ps4 and xbox one console release
If you don't like Max then you can report him for cheating on twitch, post this:
.
.
1. Farming points, rewards and item unlocks using a bot in order to attain locked items in-game that are only available by playing and defeating opponents in not only single player modes but also versus other real human players online.
He shows how to cheat and beat real people playing online on ranked in order to finish challenges.
Maximilian is cheating using an ai program and scripted bot to get game affecting items and skins, visual customizations etc. that are only available using said means or purchasable using real money via the Time Krystals currency .
Certainly this is harming and limiting the planned source of income for the developer and publisher since game users doing this are less likely to spend money.
This is akin to gold farming bots in World of Warcraft.
The people that do this frequently have their Battlenet accounts banned and suspended since it is not accepted by Blizzard. In turn this is certainly not allowed in the game's tos either.
2. He is not actively playing and is just letting the bot play the game. Showing and telling over 20 thousand viewers on stream how to cheat and not play the game. He has been instructing his viewers throughout the stream to go download the bot he advertises and cheat instead of playing the game.
He has suggested viewers start the game and the cheat and leave it overnight or as long as they want.
It's really worrying that he is spreading ways among the community that bought said game on how to dupe and cheat for items and rewards. I am sure this is against the terms of service he agreed upon with game developer Netherrealm Studios and the publisher Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment.
This is a twitch clip with just only ONE variety of an instance that he is advocating people do:
clips.twitch.tv
Broadcast title is "MK11 - Unlock Strats & Online Matches (4-26)"
he's getting banned
We've come to a point where i can't tell if this is shilling or unironic attack on max
Either way, fuck off. He's right on this.
I want me some hot frost head and spine onahole action
If he's a neet then you're practically his slave since your tax dollars go to supporting him.
We wuz Fire God Liu Kangz and shit.
>He's right on this.
you sound like a faggot, and
no he's not
you sub 100 iq retards can decide what to do for yourselves and find out ways to cheat without making it fucking public infront of his retarded community
he's grooming a whole generation of casuals with this shit and there's gonna be tons of people using bots on both ranked and matchmaking
if I wanted to play versus bots I would have played single player vs the cpu
this obnoxious faggot doesn't give a fuck about your outrage about grinding, nickle and diming and how wb is greedy, he just wants to get everything immediately and that's why he is angry, because he is a casual that has given up even on his "rage" videos where he fights "difficult" bosses and because he realizes he is losing money all those hours he isn't on camera
he is pretending to be a good guy in this
he would pay $10000 to get everything immediately to help him with his influencing gig and because he's a retarded casual nowadays
based retard
Why are you so angry?
i dont care on whatever he does but i do have an issue with him saying its perfectly fine to just buy the unlocks for shit, hes a bitch for that
Nigga he's been killed getting jumped by fucking Quan Chi and Shang Tsung
He's not all powerful
>Cetrion is a totally nothing character as well
That is exactly what I was thinking. Only good scene she has when she gives Raiden the "this is all futile" speech. But aside from that doesn't really do or say much. She is a true jobber.
Where's Ferra/Torr?
im not?
how else are you going to affect anything if you don't do it yourself
Dumbass you realise that ai system is built into the game, it can only be used for certain modes
>then they will patch it a few days later, like I said it shouldn't be a big problem
Yet they still haven't fixed it. This is a huge issue as for characters like Shao Kahn your basic bnbs don't currently work. This isn't acceptable for a competitive game.
>it's really out of control how people behave though
No it is't okay that I am waiting the best part of a week to play the same game as everyone else. Practising on PC is effectively useless right now.
>This is a twitch clip with just only ONE variety of an instance that he is advocating people do:

That clips shows it is an in game system. You can even customise your variations to have different styles of AI
I might actually get behind this simply because he was an active part in making the game worse overall and contributing to the "muh speed and le epic combos" crying instead of educating his gigantic audience EVEN IF he personally wants something broken like MVC2
>he was an active part in making the game worse overall and contributing to the "muh speed and le epic combos"
So were most pro players, I'd say SonicFox had more of an effect on that as his list of issues even got retweeted by NRS staff. No one liked the speed of the game, and combo variety is incredibly low.
Are Geras and Cetrion the most uninspired shit ever?
If you work under a publisher you deserve that for keeping the system running. We're long past the need for publishers to create video games.
I liked the ending with Raiden becoming a mortal man and passing the torch to Liu Kang.
Yeah, "Merely Raiden" was a genuine shock. Pun unintended.
That was a bodydouble.

I love Geras VA.

>This isn't acceptable for a competitive game.
the game won't be at any actual tournament with actual important big league points for close to 3 months
>I am waiting the best part of a week to play the same game as everyone else
no you aren't, it's been 2 days since the ps4 big patch hit dude
if you are implying that the game came out on pc a day late that's wrong because games on steam always get released at the same hour of the day
if you're angry about that then it's sad
Geras's gameplay is dope
I forgot about spawn but my dad who works for todd says they're not sure when he's getting the golden ticket
Ed Boon us my neighbor, dont listen to this fag . The DLC characters are Deathstroke, Fujin, Kai, Mavado, and Ash.
>the game won't be at any actual tournament with actual important big league points for close to 3 months
There is a summit of time qualifier on 1st May. It is going to be a game at every up coming tournament, including Combo Breaker next month. What an awful excuse
>it's been 2 days
Game came out on the 23rd, PC is still missing the day 1 patch for the gameplay that consoles got day 1. So the PC version is still out of date compared to day 1 on consoles.
>It was me, Raiden
>This time the timeline is completely erased, it's a clean plate except for Liu Kang who is an omnipotent being now and 2 characters that are confirmed alive besides him, Kitana and Raiden.
This sounds like everyone getting hyped over Dark Raiden again. There is no way that MK12 won't be 90% returning characters and that the story set up in MK11's ending won't be sidelined by chapter 2.
Geras is one of the most unique fighters in the entire genre, his looks are pretty bland in comparison though
Cetrion is a complete failure and honestly fucking laughable that she got beyond the brainstorming phase
Kollector is cool and fits well into MK, the only thing I dont like about him is the jobber kike personality
>cetrion is a complete failure
umm sorry sweety, but she's original as fuck
And he is loyal to best boy Kahn. Kollektor a good boy.
stupid basic bitch complaining about any minor thing
eh I don't give a shit that much really, wasted an hour because I was bored
I just dislike max
lol
heboon or whoever okayed that doesn't know what he's doing
not at the level of other characters
>cool and fits well
kollector reminds me of a masters of the universe toy madeup character
the black gorilla is okay
and how do you finance your game?
Mortal Kombat 11: Endgame Edition
I don't think the next patch will really fix the krypt or towers
By their nature both are random and grindy. The tower modifiers aren't fun to deal with, they don't change up the gameplay but are just free damage for the enemy. You'll still be fighting boring or button reading AIs that can just freeze your character mid combo. Random chests just suck, that will only be fixed by a complete rework of the krypt. And still 90% of rewards would be consumables and icons. You still won't get everything without playing for a year as so much is linked to beating towers. Do you really want to fight AI for a year?
>the dudes are sexier than the women in this game.
Well, men are objectively more attractive. That's not being gay, that's just being honest.
So far I have only done about 12 character endings.
With NRS wanting to expand beyond fightan games, I would like to see God of War: MK edition based off of Scorps' ending.
why don't they make the towers fun shit like only >3 hits combos do damage or some other fun modifiers? I just let the AI play, it's too bullshit to play myself.
I hate Raiden and Kung Lao's leather headsocks in this game. They look really bad.
Prostitution.
>beat
Shao fucking crippled the jungle nigger. Learn your place trash
That's something Erron would do. it's a shame how little of a part he still had, and how almost nonexistent his current timeline self was.
>Erron's intro is him throw a bag full of bounty severed heads and Hsu Hao's rolls off
Erron continues to be awesome. I'm glad they brought the best Outworlders characters from X and focused on the old and new regimes fighting each other. Shao Khan against Kotal was fucking ace.
hes probably gunna get elder godded, but it was neat.
Yeah I would have loved to see an exchange between new and old Erron, and see what their reasoning would be for fighting for the side they do.
what's wrong with a villain doing villainous things, she's basically Baraka if he wasn't a total jobber
we're in a series where death literally means nothing too and the character she killed was just a different version of another character who was present in that same scene and is still alive and continuing in his place anyway, why are people upset even
huh so that's why they want more women in game studios...
I think it became a meme at this point.
haven't played it yet, but is Raiden still our blunder god?
Is kollector any fun?
>and focused on the old and new regimes fighting each other
They barely did though, very little was done with that and Erron especially. His old version didn't even have any lines
>their reasoning
Money and perks.
The whole story is based on him being a blunder god, over and over and over
D'Vorah is based
nice.
Well that's exactly what I want to hear arguing about:
>Kotal pays me fifty gold ducat per day, and that's just me not doing anything!
>Kronika promised to bring Bessie back, you know you never had another horse as good as her
>With Kotal I have my own royal raptor to ride
>With Shao Kahn was feared across the realms we have better chances with him
>The Black Dragon stabbed you in the back
>That is only to be expected
etc
Who are the best characters to use as AI for the Towers of Time and what should their stats be?
>what's wrong with a villain doing villainous things
Because the moment has to feel earned and actually lead to something interesting. No one would like Baraka randomly killing Scorpion either. D'vorah killing Hanzo was random, there wasn't a build up to it, most have no reaction to the news, nothing significant happens because of it, she then just left the story and young Scorpion just turned good. If none of that happened and it was Hanzo on the boat at the end little of the story would be different.
So all we gain from it is one less Scorpion, and a one good Scorpion minus all his development from the past few games. Didn't do anything for D'vorah's character outside giving her another free kill of an OG character, which really feeds into the idea she is the writers pet. At best this was shock value that got completely erased by the ending where everyone is gone.
He looks more intimidating in 9

What the fuck happened to this board man.
thanks for your tax dollars, wageslave!
You are the crab at the bottom of the bucket.
Why is it they made Cassie Cage look better in the sequel when she looked like complete fucking ass in X but then decided to just fuck every other female and give them the HRT treatment instead?
>he's getting banned
hahah, you wish, also seeth more faggot
All the scenes with Johnny Cage and Johnny Cage were kino.
Someone with pull in the writer's team has a bug fetish, that's for sure. D'vhora's been killing too many fan favorites to feel earned. They gotta squish this bitch next game.
wish i had the same love for myself as that man does
>THEY SHOT OUR FACE
Because you can feel NRS culture war of pro/anti fanservice in the way that some women look horrible and other look better than they've ever looked since MK went 3D. The arcade endings with 9's leotards and bikinis also say plenty.
I’m already bored with the game.
I honestly have no problems with the story, some questionable decisions at some point, but MK has always been that way.
They noticed her tampering immediately, it's happened in every timeline almost, it's kind of the point. In order to reshape it, she affects everyone's lives and then they act.
He still is because he's still the architect of every ruined timeline due to fighting Liu Kang, and even if he stops himself he still ends up doing it almost always.
She looks worse, she acts about 10-15 years younger, etc. She was better in X, despite having nearly no personality.
She's killed Mileena and Hanzo. Nobody gives a crap about either, people just want Scorpion, not Hanzo, despite Hanzo being way fucking cooler.
I don't even understand this SJW garbo that's been going around. Both Jade/Skarlet make since, they live in a desert world, and even then the vast majority of the costumes are inspired by MK1/2 costume designs, Sonya/Cassie's are big indicators of this.
In one timeline he lived in a wasteland world making money, Kronika's he was probably Jay-Z of Earth.
>I might actually get behind this simply because he was an active part in making the game worse overall and contributing to the "muh speed and le epic combos"
It's really tiresome to know that E-celebs, twitchfags and youtubefags have more influence than the actual gamers who play these games.
This is my first MK. I have no idea what the fuck is going on. Help
big mistake
>Old Sonya blows herself up to destroy Revenant Hell-Church powered by the severed head of Shinnok (the explosion immediately gets reversed by Kronika, but Sonya doesn't come back lmao)
Why did they copy one of the worst parts from infinity war?
>they destroy the mind stone so thanos can't get it but also killing vision( super emocinal scene for the characters).
>a couple of seconds later thanos walks in, revives the nig and takes the stone
Find your safe advancing string/s (frame data is in the menu). Find your one combo. At all times try to enforce these.
To show that the entire plan was worthless and blunder god blundered again.
It was also Kronika's way of getting a Sonya out of the way. The real blunder is Raiden giving Shinnok's head to fucking Liu Kang, why if you know he can just use it to power the Netherrealm and his new Quan-Chi/Shinnok magic?
Remember, losing is learning.
So where does the timeline even go from here? Is it time for /ourguy/ to return and take his place as rightful ruler?
What the fuck did they do to D'Vorah's voice?
Holy shit it sounded so much better and credible in MKX, this shit just sounds like a cheap voice changing program, like an annoying baby or something.
MK12 is another reboot. Turns out muh fate is inevitable, a story similar to MkK1-3 plays out with a lot more liberties taken and characters introduced early.
Why does it feel like in every game they seem to regret ever making Sonya and Johnny a thing? Hell if it wasn't for Cassie basically being the new protagonist of MK, they'd probably retcon it completely.
Yes. Honorable recognition to Kano teaming up with himself.
He appears in Kung Lao's tower ending only to job to him and get sliced in half. Obviously it's a tower ending and shouldn't be taken seriously, but the implication is that he'll make his return eventually.
>I work 72 hours a week
>my taxes feed you
>you don't work at all
>you're MY slave
You are the dumbest bastard I've ever seen on this godforsaken site.
>tfw like Sonya/Cage
>tfw netherrealm doesn't.
Why do they hate it.
Kano was always pretty based.
2 birds 1 stone...
Raiden is best boy.
She also killed Baraka and Ferra Torr
God, I love Johnny Cage so much. He is just such a prick. You HAVE to love him, it's not an option. I'm glad they nailed his character in 11 just like in X, but with some good development in both Johnnies.
Also, 11's Kano is so good that you should call him Kino instead
Why do they keep letting dvorah kill people no one fucking cares about her
So with raiden, lui kang, kitana, and kung lao becoming elder gods, are they not going to show up in the next reboot?
God I hope this game flops, I hate what they've done to MK.
Obviously she's a writer's pet for someone.
Jade looks better
Gameplay wise? Practice a lot, lose a lot, losing is how you get better
Storywise? Yeah, it's kind of fucked. If you're helplessly confused about the story, just know that you might have picked the single worst title to pick up on. Go read up on Mortal Kombat 9 (the one that came out in 2011) and MKX, everything before those two is not relevant to MK11's plot
I want to fuck D'vorah in her gross, wriggly bug pussy!
>God I hope this game flops, I hate what they've done to MK.
Improved the netcode? Made the meta not an infinite and exploit mess? Made characters that are agressive, but not braindead unga? Made zoning a lot smarter and less exploitative? Added more personality to characters that fell flat? Made one of the best scenes in current gen? Brought back good OST youtube.com

Let you do this twitter.com
I have some gripes with 11, but I also feel like it's one the strongest MKs gameplay wise and I love playing games.
Yes. Theres even a God Liu Kang skin
Remember the combos are different from other 2D fighters. You don't cancel, you queue. You can't double tap or mash or you'll fuck up your queue for combos. A 21212 DF1 has to be exactly that, but you don't have to time it like links or even chains just dial it out as soon as possible. The difficult timing comes from juggles, but there are so many ways to juggle there is always an easier way for slightly less damage.
yes and apparently the stages might come as DLC according to DLC data leaks on Switch.
I was thinking more along the lines of downgrading the characters and their designs, ruined the gameplay outside of online and turned the rest of the game into a gacha, created the single worst plot in all of MK history, gimped the PC version again then started to remove all instances of PC to run away, insulted the fans, and finally sold out to esports fags. They sold the soul of MK and you're shilling it for free.
Is Shujinko still even around?
I thought Geras was going to be a lame Tremor recycling but he's cool as fuck with a great VA
This is so fucking hard to get used to. After playing a bunch of tekken and soul calibur this shit breaks my brain when I try to fight online. I'm still even holding back or sometimes A to block out of habit but that's easier to shake.
I think he's still alive in this timeline, though I'm not sure how canon the comics are. Regardless, Onaga doesn't really need him though. Shujinko wasn't special, he was lied to believe that he was. The same exact events can happen with anybody else who was as gullible as Shujinko was. There's also the fact that Netherrealm view the character as an embarrassment and seem to want nothing to do with him.
Anyone has a working link for the latest comic?
>downgrading the characters and their designs
Characters all look better. Women don't look like trannies and there is way more personality coming out of every character. Character arcs are finally realized and concluded as well.
>ruined the gameplay outside of online
The game is more responsive (less input lag) offline, there aren't any input bugs ala MK9, characters have fleshed out movesets instead of shit that boils down to two strings and specials
>and turned the rest of the game into a gacha,
This is a problem
>created the single worst plot in all of MK history
Nope some really good moments in MK11 and finally some closure for Liu Kang. There is also a solid metanarrative about the fighting game genre as whole. Don't even try to tell me Deadly Alliance or Armaggedon were good
youtube.com
>gimped the PC version again then started to remove all instances of PC to run away
PC just got patched for stability today and more patches are coming out. I own the PC version and while I want the hotfix I can still enjoy it and practice for my friends PS4 for a lot of the cast.
>insulted the fans
Like Boon has been doing since he got on twitter?

>They sold the soul of MK and you're shilling it for free.
No, they revitalized it's soul
You're definitely soulles political stooge
>Shujinko as an embarrassment
Why? He was a cool character with a shitty moveset IMO
>Brought back good OST
I mean your whole post is delusional, but the OST is ass including that Kotal track. Only the club and tournament stage stick out. rest is MKX tier
youtube.com
This is the real Jade.
Not your zoomer-MK shit version.
>he spent 25 hours playing the wrong patch
LMAO, this makes your shilling even funnier.
The hotfix doesn't even change a bunch of the characters you fucking moron. Please learn to read you pathetic anti-shill social media henchman.
I thought he was a cool character, but like majority of the 3D era characters Neatherrealm seems to actively dislike him.
I thought that scene with Raiden and Liu Kang fighting through all the previous games was so fucking sick.
>Characters all look better
Kek no. Scarlets and Scorpions alt and Noob I'll agree with though.
>The game is more responsive
slower
>there aren't any input bugs ala MK9
>b-but MK9!

>Nope some really good moments in MK11
A few good moments dosn't suddenly make a bad plot good otherwise MKX had a pretty good plot due to Sub Zero schooling the kids, also lol that 11 starts off by erasing the events of MKX near enough
>PC just got patched for stability today
This in no way excuses NRS for banning the word "PC" and even removing it from their page.
>Like Boon has been doing since he got on twitter?
Wasn't even talking about Boon but now that you mention he he's ramped it up a bit, went all in when someone totaled the amount of cash required to bypass the gacha didn't he?
>Citation needed
One of the earliest interviews with Boon has him talk about changing MK for esports.
>No, they revitalized it's soul
Meanwhile in the real world it couldn't get the top sellers on Amazon, only held it on Steam for less than a day, and has a user review score of below 3.0 and mixed on Steam. Dosn't sound revitalized to me lad.
You're definitely a soulless MK shill.
>tfw we'll never get this outfit back
fuck you boon
Not that guy but do you honestly think the critic scores are based off gameplay? People are pissed about the tower grinding alone and are blackballing the shit out of it. If that was less severe the games reviews would be fine. People made videos begging people not to tank the ratings on sight because of this alone before they had a chance to change it, and they did it anyway.
Sorry amigos, get parried
twitch.tv
I don't see many sticking with the game at all desu. It is super dull, even the NRS heads shilling don't have much to say. Just it is really neutral based guys as they do a safe string that moves them in. The zoning is way better, as they try to outrace the others chip damage cause projectiles not clashing is the dumbest thing ever. It is full of difficult decisions as they do Erron's safe dropkick for the 10th time this round. Game removed a lot of layers of decision making, even your wake up game which is tied to a meter system you barely have to think about. All while having bad presentation, realistic graphics don't magically make a fight exciting.
anyone else using the pc trainers to bypass the grind?
It was fucking awful. Literally 3 characters are ever important to the story.
>Liu Kang is important
>Raiden is important
>Kronica is important
>Scorpion is important for the 30 seconds in which he saves Kharon, as he is required to transport Raiden
Everyone else is a pointless goon who exists to just fight for someone or be part of a B/C plot that ultimately means nothing to the main plot.
What was the fucking point of Kronica getting a McGuffin soul crown? (Other than to waste screen-time and give characters something of fake relevance to do)
How does an Elder God lose to, literally, everybody she fights when she's powerful enough to make herself bigger than the fucking planet?
Every time Erron Black shows up the character he's jobbing for tells him that modern day Erron Black is a good guy that works for Kotal. If so, where the fuck is he during the entire game?
How the fuck did the mother of the Elder Gods, with her soul crown McGuffin as well as merging with an Elder God, lose to a demi-god merged with a strong human?
Why does Shao Kahn lose to fucking everybody and then loses a fair 1v1 fight to fucking Kitana of all people and dies? How the fuck did this guy win Armageddon in the original timeline?
Jade beating the shit out of Kotal and then Shao Kahn opportunely showing up and capturing him was one of the most hilariously retarded things I've ever seen. I actually thought Jade betrayed him, but apparently not. Not that it would matter anyways because the Shao Khan sub-plot had literally no relevance to the story other than "He's buying time by being a disruption". Which was literally every bad guys purpose that wasn't Kronica, making them all pointless to the story.
I could go on all day. Thank god the timeline is reset. The story was fucking terrible.
The guy they got for Lord Raiden is great. Perfect voice for him in the last few MK and Injustice games.
I know nobody really plays these games for the story, but the plot felt really weak in this one. It's like they don't know how to move forward. Then again a lot of fighting games have this problem of shooting themselves in the foot when it comes to story and characters.
Why do they refuse to make a non fighting game MK game? Like an action adventure or big RPG type game set in the MK universe would be great.
Turns out gameplay isn't the only thing that makes a game and installing anti-consumer shit like gacha tier grinds with little rewards while further reducing fun by providing gameplay options worse than Injustice 2 and insulting the fanbase for not liking the new design direction doing all of this dosn't go down so well with said fanbase. Who would have thought?
>Why does Shao Kahn lose to fucking everybody
This bothered my autism. He should be able to body pretty much the entire cast. They nerfed him hard.
>slower
Mk11 has less input lag than X by 1 frame. The startup for moves has mostly parity with some things being slower or faster in both games. The difference with 11 is that there isn't a run (wavedashing is fast, but takes execution) and there is more recovery and less frame advantage for moves.
>Everytime
facts don't care about your feelings
>MKX was pretty good
It was combat kids starring Ashley Burch. It was a pain to go through besides Johnny's and Kotal's flashbacks.
>This in no way excuses NRS for banning the word "PC" and even removing it from their page.
PC was censored on twitch way before 11. I have no idea what's going on with twitter, but the updates on steam are frequent.

Even with the political social media posse hating on MK11 24/7 it still sold well.
If lord aris is already done with it then that's more on him than the game really imo. He's spent years playing tekken, I wonder how fun it seemed day 3. The game isn't bad but it is very different than what he usually plays, should have given it more time he never even picked a character.
>Turns out gameplay isn't the only thing that makes a game
it's probably 95% of what makes a game a game unless you're a casual who likes movie games or phone games
Is this game worth getting for someone who only cares about playing online matches? Is the gameplay good and somewhat balanced? I could give a shit less about story mode and skins/cosmetics.
>action adventure
Didn't they sort of try that?
geras and kollector have cool concepts and movesets but generic designs. all they gotta do is make them look good.
cetrion is completely uninspired in every way possible. she's jacqui and 3d era garbage tier.
Aris is a huge SC fan and dropped VI in a week
yeah the netcode is amazing
like actually amazing, not fake weeb good
Get it for PS4 since they get the hotfixes. Right now the game seems pretty balanced outside of maybe Kano and Dvorah being weak.
>it's probably 95% of what makes a game a game
Spoken like someone who's first console was a 360. A game is made of many elements that all combine into one hell of an experience if done right. Megaman wouldn't be half the game it is without that fucking awesome soundtrack, The Darkness bleeds atmosphere from every pore, even MK wouldn't be MK without the pointless but entertaining fatalities. Devaluing other aspects of a game simply results in a poorer experience and somewhere along the way NRS started doing this resulting in MK11 where gameplay is improved, but literally everything else is downgraded.
If you don't care about kosmetics it's fine imo. The time to kill is long enough to not feel cheap but not so long (fucking injustice) that you feel like you aren't doing anything. You will get bored of the animations for fatal blows very fast though. The first time you see them they're hype as shit, but they're too long and too frequent.
I agree, with Geras especially. His time-stop fatal blow in particular is the best one in the game. The concept of his fighting style has great room for imagination in the future.
But yeah, the newcommers are fucking 3d-era tier shit, especially Cetrion. I thought they finally had learning how to make interesting new characters down with Kotal and Erron. Even X Cassie I thought was great, besides her face.
>Is the gameplay good and somewhat balanced?
Too early to say. I haven't found it very interesting, it is like Tekken if you stripped the characters down but kept 90% of the move list worthless. Game lacks tech as well, no one is even bothering to learn wavedashing as they all think it'll be patched out.
Dragon Rot
>I-I make six figures...
Wow, you make $28 an hour after you account the amount of hours you put in. How impressive
>Spoken like someone who's first console was a 360
My first console was a colecovision. I had some ugly games, but they were fun as fuck.
You just said the one thing that I said and then added outside PR stuff that I haven't even heard about. They immediately decided to patch the towers, though I admit this is not something that should have released in that state.
If only there was an entire fighting game and ~4 hour story mode, too. Then maybe someone could enjoy the other 95% of it that they didn't complain about.
What's so bad about these type of outfits again?
>Even with the political social media posse hating on MK11 24/7 it still sold well.

If you understood or had any experience in a business you would know that they're in some shit because they didn't list numbers. All companies fucking love listen those digits as it's a kill button to competitors and people shitting on the product while patting themselves on the back. The fact that they didn't show any only highlights how much trouble MK11 is in.
they're attached to trannies

This one matters
>insulting the fanbase for not liking the new design direction doing all of this dosn't go down so well with said fanbase.
This one does not.
Stop fucking acting like the Designs are why people are bitching about the game
The PC version is shit and progression is terrible. Outside of Yea Forums nowhere else complains about the fact the women aren't wearing skimpy outfits but EVERYONE does over the other 2 things I said.
I was pleasantly surprised by 11. I hated X's story and focus on shitty Boruto characters, and while half of them still had a presence in 11 they weren't the main focus and didn't defeat the bad guys due to asspulls in lieu of being interesting characters.
I dunno if this is a controversial opinion or not, but the weird focus on the earthling military in recent MK fucking sucks and I always thought it was supposed to be some kind of joke that they even exist in previous games. Making Johnny Cage a serious character almost ruins him even if the jokes are still good. I don't like any of these kids. I was worried X was going in a direction where I wouldn't care anymore and 11 basically revived my interest.
I love my girl Kitana.
>unless you're a casual who likes movie games or phone games

why is everyone bothered by sonya dressing like a slut? jax is also a military man and he runs around shirtless for no reason.
at least they gave them both more clothes in the following games that made them look a bit more military.

OOF, some tranny must have been really seething while working on this game
Based.
>Outside of Yea Forums nowhere else complains about the fact the women aren't wearing skimpy outfits
You'd be wrong there. Obviously Yea Forums has overblown the issue as usual but even normalfags are annoyed at the blatant fear of having attractive women showing off any sort of skin that's growing in western games. Nobody is asking them to fight in string bikinis, but these female fighters who are in peak physical condition hiding their bodies under layers of clothing just seems redundant. At the very least they could have just given people alternate classic outfits, but they even doubled down on that saying it'll never happen.
Lets not forget it was literally ok for MK1-X but when 11 happened suddenly it was literally rape.
Maybe because the changed Kitana to Asian and the Asian model had no ass. Asian guys like that shit for some reason. Kpop girls all have no ass and dudes claim to prefer it over someone like Iggy
kpop stars arent professional fighters
>Is kollector any fun?
He's the only decent newcomer since
and what does being a Professional Fighter have to do with the size of her ass?
based
New Erron sucks
Geras is fun, but he's basically gone forever and wouldn't fit without the story. I hope they let Tremor or some other faggot rob some artifact or some shit that allows him to do Geras time manipulation for MK12.
Not him but a trained athlete would have a more defined ass due to squats alone. Kitana has the ass of someone who has never been in a fight or competition.
>Asian guys like that shit for some reason
So they made Kutana to appeal asian males, does MK sells in Asia? No
Another wrong decision by NRS, can't wait for them purging the trannies and other furfags working there
Seriously fuck MKX. Quan Chi's entire deal was that he was ALWAYS playing everybody. He was ALWAYS like 10 steps ahead and everything was hilariously always going according to his retardedly convoluted plan. Then X happens and the fucker sacrifices his life so Shinnok can be revived. Then, Shinnok doesn't even give a shit about him enough to even make him a revanent. Original timeline Quan Chi would never have went out like such a bitch cunt. I should have known that was the beginning of the end when it came to their story-telling. MK11 was essentially made entirely of moments like that.
the souls of your defeated opponents go straight to your ass, this is common knowledge
Muscle
DAMN
They had to kill off Hanzo and bring back wraith Scorpion because they realized Scorpion not wanting to be Scorpion anymore wasn't exactly friendly to their brand.
It's the face and body for then anything.
This chad walks up to your girlfriend and slaps her ass, what do you do?
He didn’t beat him once.
He lets Raiden and Liu do the damage.
MK9 was the last good MK, prove me wrong.
He's one of the few to make it through the whole new trilogy. They kept changing actors and I honestly found that really annoying. Epcar's been voicing Raiden since MK vs DC I think. He's got a solid Joker as well.
But killing him off was completely pointless because 30 minutes later the timeline was destroyed anyway. Scorpion can be whatever the fuck they want him to be now, much like every other character. His death was pointless and his younger wraith form carrying on his legacy was pointless.
So this is the second time they went and rebooted the MK timeline? How many times are they going to do this?
i agree, having the tits taken away is a joke but the gameplay is much better mechanics wise
Even in Armageddon Konquest he is treated like a joke, an old man that deludes himself thinking he can overthrow Shao Kahn and his allies.
They honestly might as well embrace it and do it literally every game. They're too stupid to plan ahead. They're essentially Disney with Star Wars.
.....
input bug
ass netcode
3D hitcircles in a 2D game
Unga
MK9 was better than everything in the 3D era, but it wasn't amazing
You're posting this when the intro for Deadly Alliance has Quan Chi running for his life away from Scorpion?
>What was the fucking point of Kronica getting a McGuffin soul crown?
It's explained; the same reason she ransacks the Wu Shi academy; she needs power to reform time
>How does an Elder God lose to, literally, everybody she fights when she's powerful enough to make herself bigger than the fucking planet?
The Briggs had the crown, and Fire God Liu is alpha
>Every time Erron Black shows up the character he's jobbing for tells him that modern day Erron Black is a good guy that works for Kotal. If so, where the fuck is he during the entire game?
He is around fighting in scenes, just never gets and dialogue.
>How the fuck did the mother of the Elder Gods, with her soul crown McGuffin as well as merging with an Elder God, lose to a demi-god merged with a strong human?
It is specifically stated that she always took out Raiden and Liu Kang in every timeline, because she was worried about them. You could also ask how one shouty boi can beat down Skullnan the barbarian, king of might makes right land.
>Why does Shao Kahn lose to fucking everybody and then loses a fair 1v1 fight to fucking Kitana of all people and dies?
Can't argue with that, poor guy got a massive nerf. Also, I think the buffed the heck out of Kotal since X, he is supposed to matter here
>Jade beating the shit out of Kotal and then Shao Kahn opportunely showing up and capturing him was one of the most hilariously retarded things I've ever seen. I actually thought Jade betrayed him, but apparently not.
That was indeed quite retarded. Kotal might have been stubborn, but it's fucking Outworld.
I only played Deception's Konquest mode but I was confused by the cliff hanger. Onaga telling him he could have helped the elder gods instead of him if only he found some 5th artifact reeks of bad ending to me so I kept playing searching for it only to find out that was the only ending.
Causr some one has a major fetish for devorah on the dev team
It was honestly unplayable online.
MKX was unplayable at the start too, but then they changed netcode back in 2016.
MK11 is great, i'm european and can play with americans with basically no delay and no lag.
Where things are before the timeline reset is meant to set precedence for future games, so that the audience is less confused by where things are at. Basically just expect everyone who has an older counterpart to still be old except maybe Sonya, everyone who's young to still be young, and Scorpion to be a wraith but also an anti-hero. Maybe Kano is magically alive as well. Or maybe literally everyone is young again but all the characters who aged have their older selves' memories.
Just think of it as an excuse to keep everyone around but not alter the established characters for the next game. Which is the real reason why they reset again. They fucked their own shit with time travel and a time skip.
Kollector is good, but He's D'vorrah tier: Still a great addition, one of the best since MK3, but not litterally "should be in every MK game moving foward" tier like Kotal and Erron
Yet Deadly Alliance was when he was at his most based. The Deadly Alliance was one of the coolest things that ever happened in the Mortal Kombat universe. Samsung and Crunchy did what Shao Khan, Shinnok etc... couldn't. They fucking killed Liu Kang and kicked Raiden's shit in.
They were the only bad guys that ever got shit done. Yet were both absent in X and 11 (or in Quan Chi's case, an out-of-character bitch in X).
It wasn't pointless, it was a critical point in the story. If Scorpion didn't have a change of heart there, the Earthrealmers would have been shit out of luck, and Kronika would have won by default.
does raiden look like boon to anyone else?
>in the comic
Good we don't need people having to know about stupid shit outside the games to understand what's going on
Don't be reta... wait a minute!
Lol Kotal jobs to Shao twice, gets crippled, beaten by Jade and Dvorah and gives up his throne. He did not matter. He was useless but ya know MY JADE KOTAL PAIRING IS IMPORTANT.
Ideas to fix 11 problems (console):
>Casual
Remove art from the Krypt and make it drops for simply playing any match or chilling in pratice modes or Krypt for a certain amount of time
Make DLC costumes free that are added to the Krypt along with more easy to make color mods
Fix the UI so you're not looking at a list of the same costume with different colors for days
Give out hearts for winning matches primarily instead of being forced to watch the same fatality over and over
Double all currency drops or reduced costs
>Hardcore
Make a UI on the character select screen so people can choose their special moves like MvC2/3 assists without using presets
Allow kustoms for ranked and tournament mode
Kustoms are more enjoyable and allow for creativity and planning a lot more. It can help characters with bad matchups more. If it's broken it's broken, but the FGC comp scene isn't fucking MOBA, they don't give a fuck about balance early on and generally embrace jank (MvC and DBFZ). No more hotfixes unless it's a legit gamebreaking bug and SUBTLY balance maybe 3-6 months.
i feel like johnny cage in mk11 looks more like ed boon honestly
is it worth a buy on pc if i only care about online casual play?
>Raiden realizes the trouble is he won't pass the torch in 11
>Boon is possibly retiring soon and wants to move on to other genres and leave fighting games alone
Hey, jobbing is important. It is in the very name!
I have no excuse for Jade and Dvorah though, that was quite unnecessary
sure but be warned it's a shit port
No. PC ALWAYS gets left behind.
In MKX they just stopped giving it the balance patches console was getting for literally a year or so. As well as not giving it the new non-shit netcode. It was also an optimized mess.
MK11 has already started with them rolling out balance patches for console that still haven't come out on PC. You're not even playing the same game if you're on PC.
Not atm. The half-patch didn't fix the desyncs for online during FINISH HIM. Check back in a day.
Wait till the port is fixed, We don't know how long that'll be though could be waiting for a long time like MKX
She cute
>Bad guy wants to get rid of Raiden and create a timeline with a balance between good and evil
>FUCK YOU, YOU'RE BAD! DIE NOW!
>Game ends with Raiden being gotten rid of and Kitana saying that there's going to be good and evil in the new timeline
>WE WON
Literally what was the point?
who is kabals and sareenas kid going to be?
She is, I actually liked her here despite finding her annoying in MKX.
If only she had her MKX body-suit and they fixed the white of eyes looking so fucked up in MK11. Then she'd look really great.
>maybe 3-6 months.
This game will be forgotten in a month as usual for NRS games
She is 28 years old now wtf
In the older games it was established that Liu Kang was a lot stronger than Raiden, kind find it weird how since MK9 Raiden is all like "we fight in every time-line and in every time line I kick your ass lul"
That said, Liu Kang being the chosen one again was kino, just wish that his "god" mode didn't look like an Asian Raiden, should've been his own thing with firey red hair or something.
her face looks super sweaty ingame for some reason
Now give her the gym clothes and she will be perfect .
>This game will be forgotten in a month as usual for NRS games
This isn't Blazblue. Even MKX lasted a year
Raiden was a good guy and friend to Liu Kang and he deserved to be alive, instead of literally who Kronika.
Same thing with MKX. The characters sweat during fights and it carries over to some cutscenes
>What's so bad about these type of outfits again?
They hate the human form having the idealistic shape because insecurities.
i legit never noticed that until playing as cassie cage in mk11
plus going by lui kangs tower ending it seems that raiden might be made into an elder god.
Can we combine these two thoughts into one please
absolutely terrific taste user
What gets me most about Cassie is that ugly face people claimed they fixed is still in the story mode, It's just an awful angle when the scene happens.
His power has been greatly diminished and is one of the most hunted men in most of the realms Quan Chi isn't ten steps ahead when he's at the point of desperation.
>cassie cage beats liu kang
>"FUCK YOU"
Old Quan Chi wouldn't have got himself into that situation to begin with. He would also never sacrifice his life for Shinnok either. The fact that he'd be loyal to somebody is laughable.
Why the fuck isn't Takeda in story mode? Kung Jin too I guess.
I still don`t understand why she started the timeline over and over again. She says the same shit happened countless times but for some reason, she never finished her plans.
I think this is the best way to battle feminism in video games. Instead of arguing against them with facts, just start associating them with disgusting groups. Bronies for feminism or some pedophile shit supporting feminist frequency. Make them the ambassadors for that.
because fuck you why would we give you characters you want back when you can have jacqui briggs
>mk11 kano
kano? more kino!
Well as of right now Liu Kang can't win the Tournaments and he can't forcefully stop Shao Khan (well he can but he wont). Which means Raiden or Scorpion will likely win the first Tournament, Raiden has to win it or Shao Khan will merge realms. MK2 could be a variety of people.
Because it's grown tired over the years like many things with the series.
>Scorpion always having to be a wraith
>Scorpion and Subs aren't allowed to be best friends and have to always fight ("Not Anymore")
>Liu Kang always has to be the hero
>Johnny Cage always has to be the goofy asshole rather than the hardened battle vet with experience, even when that's Ed Boon's entire persona over the years and how he's changed too
I could go fucking on. WB wants the series to stay status quo so it can keep going on and they keep getting money, Ed Boon actually wants to push older characters to the side or completely redesign some to actually save the franchise and you can tell the writing differences.
Liu Kang and Kitana will but only as Titans. Raiden an Kung Lao aren't Elder Gods, they're just regular humans.
As far as the gameplay goes its honestly better than ever, some creative differences I will personally disagree with. The story, it's MK who gives a fuck at the end of the day, could be better, could be more intelligent, could be far worse, could be far more stupid (MK has been own this road). The Krypt/DLC/lootbox scenario is the real kicker and that's more WB than it is NRS.
MK11 Kano is Euron Greyjoy, who is actually MK movie Kano.
We can continue this into the next thread.
But lets say you're given the reigns of MK12, you have full power of the reboot.
>What do you do with the story
>What is the roster of the first game
>Shao Kahn is the only one strong enough so he becomes the elder god's chosen one
That would be sick.
mk12 is a retelling of armageddon
roster is every single MK character plus the gods that subzero killed in mythology
>Erron
Please give Mortal Kombat a banning phase so that I can ban Noob and Scorpion and instantly eliminate 3/4th's of the playerbase's onetricks
Why? Are they broken?
imagine literally dying working on some shit capeshit garbage game like Injustice only for the company to go full virtue signal about muh nazis and respecting women
Only good parts are Double Trapped and Two Eyes.
> At best this was shock value
That's literally all this entire franchise has going for it though.
>Liu Kang has balanced the realms and not through the use of Shinnok and Cetrion
>Edenia thrives under Jerrod/Ermac's Rule
>Outworld continues its war mongering ways with itself
>Shang Tsung is expelled from the Shaolin Temple by Raiden in his youth for studying Soul Magic
>Shang Tsung unintentionally enters Outworld and meets Shao
>They devise a plan to take the other Realms through Mortal Kombat, needing 9 victories
>Elder Gods agree
>First tournament begins in Edenia as Jerrod as the host
>Shao kills Jerrod in combat and becomes Shao Khan and resurrects Jerrod as Ermac with Shang Tsung, Sindel is bent to their will, etc.
>Entire game is basically about this first MK with Shang Tsung and Shao Khan essentially being the "good guys" in this case
>Roster
Basically the 9 cast only add Goro, Shao Khan, Jerrod skin, Cyber-Smoke over Sub, Kotal, D'Vorah (you can add her sure I guess she's Outworld, same with Ferra/Torr), Rain, etc.
Fuck no. The Tier List is currently as followed.
>S Tier
Erron Black, Liu Kang, Sub-Zero
>A Tier
Kollector, Scorpion, Johnny Cage, Geras, Kano, Shao Khan, D'Vorah, Kung Lao, Kabal
>B Tier
Noob-Saibot, Frost, Jax, Sonya
>C Tier
Baraka, Cetrion, Jacqui, Jade, Skarlet
>D Tier
Cassie, Kitana, Kotal
user is probably just struggling in that upper echelon of B tier-lower A tier.
>we want the amiibo audience
I’m starting to get the wageslave meme. One should never stay somewhere where they work more than 40 hours unless it’s (a) your own business or (b) your just starting out and want to climb up the ranks quickly
>A Tier
D'Vorah
>C Tier
>Baraka, Cetrion, Jacqui
>D Tier
>Cassie, Kitana, Kota
This is all wrong did you get it from mk11.tierlist.gg
I fucking love the ninja acrobatics. I'll forever miss the sexy wink victory pose, though.
>Making Johnny Cage a serious character almost ruins him even if the jokes are still good.
That's a giant oxymoron, user. Johnny Cage just isn't sheer comedy relief anymore. He's a douchebag that does his thing but with a sense of responsibility now. He's probably the most consistently well written character in MK, considering how almost every character in this series is fucked for no good reason, even Scorpion, it's a plus.
D'Vorah is trash, gitgud
liu kang and kung lao have never been fucked as characters
This, Cage actually growing up and yet still having those moments makes him a great character, the only other ones that can compete are Scorpion and Subs for obvious reasons.
Erron is the best character NRS has made in years but it stops right there. They do fuck all with him.
>Eventhubs
hard yikes lemonade there
Honestly I would go with the opinions of tournament entrants atm, but the tiers are too fresh to really say besides Kano being pretty whack on paper.
>Gets unceremoniously killed by the villains in the intro of Deadly Alliance
>In Deception he's a meat hook chained Zombie and takes years before he's playable as a Bruce Lee parody again
Really, user?
>sonya is 19th
sure thing
Sorry but
>S Tier
Kano
The rest shit, Kano Ripper can pull insane combos if done right, up in the 70-80%, and he's easily consistent with 52% Ripper.
hey man that's not liu kang that's zombie liu kang
Kotal is a nice antithesis to Shao Khan, D'Vorah had potential, Skarlet had potential, Cassie is alright at times, Takeda is nice, Kung Jin is ok, Jacqui is shit, etc.
Erron is the best, but at least lets have Takeda and Kotal too.
Here's your MK cast
Cyber-Frost is better, her hair isn't retarded anymore...well it is, but its less retarded.
Best roster in fighting games. Nice.
I'm okay with this but change frost to something fappable.
Does anyone know what this smudgy part on the bottom right of the krypt is and how to get there? I know the top part I'm missing is the Shang Tsung throne but can't find any info about the bottom right. Pretty sure it's the only place I'm missing.
why is kitana bad? is it cause the skills allowed in her tournament variants are like her worst ones?
or is it cause of the fan nerfs
>Shao Kahn breaks Kotal Kahn like fucking nothing
>Kitana 1v1 and kills shao khan as if its nothing
what the fuck are these power levels?
>week one tierlists
>eventhubs tierlists
Yea Forums should be banned from talking about fighting games.
stick to lore discussions.
yeah it's just an area with a bunch of chests and a Shao Kahn chest with Kano droppings.
You get there from Goro's dining hall to the mini jail right next to the chamber of suffering (I think that's what it's called). Use you Kenshi blindforld to find a hole in the wall to smash.
>sindel kills everyone
>nightwolf beats her
Mk powerlevels are retarded
I really want to throw up now, can't believe someone actually wanted to make this.
Someone get on the MK11 SFM
Remember when Shao Khan was a feared God basically that only Raiden and Liu Kang could kill? Me neither.
I also love how Kotal frees Outworld and generally the realm is at peace for the most part beyond Mileena and Shao Khan shows up and everyone is like FUCK YEAH SHAO KHAN KILL HIS ASS, great crowd, gotta love'em.
Thanks a lot
Chadwolf is strong hence why he's coming back in 11
He should have been in 11 anyways, same with Stryker. Also why the hell was Kabal dialed back to Black Dragon from his Cop Days?
It makes me think that the original timeline and the current timeline are actually the two most distant of each other, rather than them being connected.
The power levels of cathartic storytelling for characterfags. Shao Khan beating Kotal's ass was the best shit while we've been waiting for Kitana to kill Shao Khan for years. Most of that shit doesn't make any sense but it was never meant to. Remember when Sindel pulled a femdom killing session on everyone and Nightwolf turned into a spirit grenade to off her?
I’m hoping Shaolin Monks 2 will be Kung Jin and Takeda.
Hold on to hope, user. One day he'll return.
ALL REFUGEES ARE WELCOME SHAO KAHN.
BECOME A REFUGEE OR DIE SHAO KHAN.
I swear, nobody was this butthurt wgen Sindel killed 3/4ths of the main cast in MK9.
people were upset about that.
I miss Stryker.
MK9 has to take over the place of months, right? Jax gets his arms ripped off and replaced.
Everyone thought that was bullshit, user. There's better ways to hide the fact that you ran away out of money for your single player campaign.
D'vhora's favoritism is starting to get annoying, especially if she's gonna kill fan favorites like Scorpion.
D'Vorah always gets bullshit kills. She killed Baraka and Mileena in the last game
D'vorah has canonically killed more heavy hitters than Motaro, Kintaro, and Goro combined
>no kenshi
I'm real butthurt about this
Geras was a let down, he got all this hype and a cool design, scary terminator deminor that can't die but turned out to be a total jobber that appeared like 3 times to get beaten up
