Generations Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 Random thought - the MK games should have a feature like WWE's superstar threads. Just changing colors of things. Not sure why they haven't done that yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generations Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 My friend sent me a tower challenge and I beat the shit out of it. Got the achievement for that. I re-sent him the same one he sent me after I beat it, and got the achievement for sending a challenge too. Also did some of the more random achievements...like the Hari Kiri one with Kotal Khan, the one for winning by time out, etc. I got the X-Ray moves one too...but not the fatality one. Need to figure out who I haven't done a fatality with during normal gameplay. Which is going to be hard...because the first thing I did when I got the game, was check out all of the fatalities in practice mode. So, I've seen them all done...hence, there aren't any characters that I specifically remember not performing a fatality for in an actual match... Anyway, I just feel happy as hell that this game is still delivering. Every time I play it, I think "well...it had a good run, but I'm bound to grow tired of it today". And every day, it keeps giving me more and more reason to keep playing. Literally the first fighting game EVER that I can say that about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamthyst Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 General tips not to suck? Especially concerning Kombos and distancing. I can land a decent combo occasionally but when I try to get close to the enemy, he destroys me. What everyone else said, but also, don't focus too much on trying to land combos and focus on your neutral game. Neutral's basically trying to get the upper hand while you and your opponent aren't doing much in a neutral stance. Try a jump in attack, do simple crouching attacks and overheads to allow yourself to open up into your combos and specials. If your opponent blocks too much, grab him too. Grab beats blocking.

Don't underestimate using the environment either. The launch pads are some of the most effective ways to get directly behind an opponent, or to put distance between you. And the attack elements, like the torches or tree limbs can take an opponent by surprise if they aren't paying attention to where you're standing.

Phantasmagore Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 Thanks for the tips, people. I'm glad to see that in this game, victory is not solely reliant on strings of combos or special combos but also influenced by set ups and strategy. This is one fighting game whose fighting mechanics I actually spend time experimenting with in the lab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generations Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 Ah...I'm in no rush to get all the achievements, because they're the main thing that keeps me coming back. I'm enjoying the fact that MKX is actually lasting a long time, and I'd like to keep it that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost. Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 Yeah, I like to breeze through Trophies/Achievements (Especially Online ones because they get harder to get as time goes on) MKX will still be primarily my go to game until Batman Arkham Knight comes out.

Generations Posted April 29, 2015 Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 Invasion Boss today is Shinnok. Great, just great.. lmao Yeah...I literally couldn't touch him....but I fought him a bunch of times just to help my faction. I don't know how the scoring really works...but the most I got against him was enough for 300 koins. I mostly got 100 or 200 every time I fought him...but I did get 300 two or three times. And something popped up to say that my faction had successfully defeated him, and I got another 5,000 koins from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generations Posted April 29, 2015 Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 Is the idea just to survive until the end, or to survive until the end AND attack him too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeb ★ Posted April 29, 2015 Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 Both, I think the damage you cause to the invasion boss only counts if you survive the 30 seconds I SURVIVED 30 SECONDS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generations Posted April 29, 2015 Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 I never tried Shinnok, how did he compare difficulty wise with Mileena and Scorpion? He does that stupid fire-pillar attack that is damn near impossible to dodge. And he does it, and does it, and keeps doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
