With all the "discussion" raging over the contents of Kombat Pack 2, the fact that's been most lost in the fray is the inevitable patches that will come along with it. We're seeing an unprecedented level of support on that end for an NRS game that will lead us right back into EVO season.

My question is simply, what would you like to see changed gameplay wise in this MKX?

Predictions-

Summoner Quan Chi is going to receive some kind of nerf. The most common request is for low bat to become a mid.

Jason NEEDS buffs. He is the consensus worst character in the game.

I feel like high pressure characters like Liu Kang and Tanya specifically will be dialed back a slight bit. Tanya has been deemed brain dead by a lot of the pro community, and watching her in tournaments, its easy to see why.

Those three are just off the top,and I don't want to just ramble on, so, what do you want to see happen?

**I'll go ahead and say this now, I don't think any netcode changes are gonna happen and given what we know about the engine, sounds like it will be a fruitless conversation. But if it'll make you feel better, go ahead and list it.smile

Unbreakable: Ice parry works on overhead attacks and can be held for a (little) longer duration.

Thats all I want

I also feel Lao has a few nerfs coming but that's a slippery slope. The wrong tweak could ruin him.

I'm not at all surprised at Tanya and Chi nerf demands though lol.

I doubt the bat hitting mid is gonna happen but it might. My guess is that they'll dial back his plus frames after MB Rune. +14 (I think that's what it is) is a bit excessive since it's not exactly hard to open someone up with Quan.

I just want Ninjitsu Scorpion's F2 to be an overhead. It'll never happen but at least then people would actually respect his footsie game.

I've learned this is something you won't find much of anyway. Unless you're playing people at high levels.

Even after getting caught consistently by force balls, or AAs, or a NJP, a lot of folks will still go jumping bean crazy. Not only that, but the majority are way too hasty to armor. God forbid I should put some of Rep's pressure on using Ex Slow FB. Getting poked out of EVERY SINGLE stagger string is annoying too. Also, I've literally been at negative frames, y'know, as in it's YOUR turn to go for pressure, 50/50, or a mixup, yet, they'll use their advantage frames to poke. confused

I kinda feel like Kitana's F2 should be OH but the lack of mixups is a decent trade off for a character who probably has the best air control in this game. Or they could give her B2 a chargeable option. Like Quan's B2 or Jax's old school OH smash (forget what his is).
