MKX Enhanced Online BETA General Discussion

[JesterSMX]

Shinnok can now choose if he gets a NJP, NJK or normal jump in attack after tricky portal. Hold a direction to get a regular jump in. Hold nothing to get NJP or NJK

Does it differentiate between ji1 and ji2?

 

[Eddy Wang]

Yep, slower general speed and slower recovery. No idea why it was done though.

I was hoping for the same, but no change.

Nothing changed as far as I tested, although Cassie wasn't able to punish B22~hat trap with flip any more so that actually probably will affect that matchup pretty heavily since we now have a safe hitconfirmable meterless starter against her (should the change stay) but that's a Cassie change not a Lao change lol.

We're getting the GA treatment.

Ok so i tested, i think u can armor f213 now. My friend armored through as lao, im not sure what the actual cancel advantage is now but im sure its lower lol

Where? At F213 -|- FBRC?

Yeah. And j3/4. Not sure what this can turn into. possibly opportunity to sneak in more dmg or slight meter build.

 

[JesterSMX]

He can only combo into his oh from ji2. From the sound of it you can teleport and get an easier 50/50 because of jip. Before it was njp, njk, or empty teleport f4 for the mixup. Now you can teleport, ji1 or ji2 and get an oh-oh or oh-low situation. Big buff in my opinion.

I dont think it matters tbh. My friend used lao and sub and armored the middle and end. Im still testing, just in case my execution is off. But it's deff less cancel advantage. Ill update you!

 

[x-azeez]

Where exectly ? F21(GAP)3 or somewhere else ?

 

[MadeOfMetal]

16bit is heavily hinting kang got nerfed i ahve not chcecked

also Mileena's F44 is now -9 up from -8

y was that nerfed, it had a gap in it anyways

not that it matters, its 1 frame on a somewhat risky move. but it is one of her better moves to launch to corner, hmm what ev

 

[x-azeez]

maybe they removed the gap ??

 

[SylverRye]

Naw nvm if its perfect it still jails but the timing is incredibly tight. It was plus 14 before. Prob plus 10/11 now. Like if im even a second slow i get armored or backdashed. Not concerned, it will increase his mind games and give people space to fight back. It was needed tbh.

 

[MadeOfMetal]

ill check
brb

Can someone check some Raiden things for me? First off are there any noticeable changes ? Does f2 and b11 still whiff on crouching females? Can you like 3 f12b2 with a run cancel again in Displacer and MoS? Is MoS any safer with his orbs? Is f1 a high still?
I'm ready..... even if the news upsets me.

ill check the Raiden shit for ya but.. ill need some time to get a friend or 2 on...

For what I see:

- D1 7 frames from 8.
- 2 is now 9 frames from 11 (yay!).
- B2 still says you can cancel it, I don't know if this is still false information like pre patch.
- F4 16 frames from 18.
- 111 -10 on block from -19
- 212 -1 from -4
- 22 can be EX into advantage.
- 224 now says NA on block advantage (before it listed -19 but it won't even happen if 22 is blocked so that makes sense) AND still says you can cancel it. The important part here is that the frame data was updated to put that NA there and they didn't remove the cancel advantage, so maybe (if someone can test) you can now combo from that one.
- New string from F2: F21 is -1 on block, F211 can be canceled but is -10 so I guess you go for F21 and on hit keep it going. Kenjutsu doesn't get this one because he has his own F2. There is also F214 that has 55 advantage and can't be canceled (that kind of advantage is normally related to launchers so we could have one here... even if F211Rising Karma should launch anyway).
- 321 is now -13 from -19
- 322 is now -9 from -11 (3223 is still -22 though)
- 3224 is now -12 from -14

Some of the moves that were made safer are still unsafe, but I'd take it for now. Still many things need to change but I'm liking some of this stuff.

Still need to check his messed up damage scales and if they improved some juggles gravity and advantage (specially 114, 2112+4 and Kenjutsu DB1).

I would've prefered that they made some of the current strings more useful instead of creating new ones but I will take it and run like a good Kenshi player.

yeah but his specials have an error,, don't be alarmed, im sure his Close OH projectile: is -7 on block. says -49 for sum reason

Id like to inform the community that Cassandra Carlton Cage was Murdered today. Daughter to Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade.
She was very young, never allowed to live really.

Let us pray for the cage family, she will be missed.

April.14.2015 - February.1.2016

And that is great, bicoz she was braindead sheeet

 

[EMPRESS_SunFire]

F44 is not a launcher.

 

[SaltShaker]

Anyone having problems with their buttons since the new patch?? I've had a few matches where literally my assigned buttons changed back to default mid Match after a round or before final round. Happened with different characters too.

 

[SylverRye]

So my friend is trying to do scorpions 214 tele 123 ex tele anymore. Can anyone do this? Everyone needs to keep going back and checking characters, paulo said with each update characters may still get changes. Paulo giveth and paulo taketh away lol

 

[Eldriken]

Was in reos stream while he played sonicfox, paulo was there answering questions. He basically told us to not really rely on the frame data in game because it is not up to date, a few things may change but the data may not be updated.

Also, he said the kp2 patch will be the last real mkx patch, when asked what if kp2 characters are broken he said that the game MAY have small updates for bug fixes, but no more big patches. This is it guys lol

Good grief. Already? I really hope they looked into actually balancing the fucking new characters if that's the case.

 

[SylverRye]

Yeah im just updating as i go. I can get it to connect if i do 214 tele do a short run cancel into 123 then ex tele. Not sure if it was always like this, feels tight lol

 

[kaseyk]

Testing displacer . Only change i noticed was teleport is definitely faster recovery and people hate fighting my raiden can't even get multiple games in a row to properly test anything else . Not thoroughly tested but i think db2 comes out faster too . Need non salt monsters to test him with...

 

[StiggyWiggs]

I think they gave 214 it's hit advantage back so I've just been going for 214, 214 ex teleport, etc. pretty sure it does more damage.

 

[SylverRye]

I JUST did that and it linked lol. So thats been added back? That seems more reliable now

 

[juicepouch]

if this is the end of mkx support then i hope goro gets bane buffs

 

[StiggyWiggs]

Yep it's back! And yeah it's super reliable, especially with the new netcode.

I'm ready..... even if the news upsets me.

dont know how to use raiden so i cant tell ya about the "3 f12b2 with a run cancel again in Displacer" but the

F1 ia still a high!

F2 does not wiff on crouching cassie cage...
B11 does not wiff on crouching cassie cage...

 

[Altsa]

Did they do anything to Kitana's d1 or d3?
