Never won a fight
>doesn't have my favorite version of umk3>no "unlock all red coins" option for mk tournamentOther than those things and the price, it's pretty cool. Hope a kollection 2 with mk5-9 and shaolin monks gets made.
>>724594891>missing gamesMK1, 2, 3 PCMKTrilogy N64MK4 N64, PSX, Gold (DC)if they added those, the collection would be perfect.
>>724595881>my favorite version of umk3Which one?
>online lobbies delayed>input lag>mixed reviews>sub 1k playersyeah i'm thinking it's over
>>72459946089 on Metacritic is mixed?
>>724599214It's gotta be the SNES version, but the one in the kollection feels really different for some reason, like it's missing things. Maybe they just messed up sounds or something? The main menu feels really different too.
>>724601385Thats weird, its supposed to be a perfect port of the SNES version.
>>724599084The OG PC versions they wont mess with it because it is sold on GoGMKtrilogy N64 belongs to Nintendo, and they wont do SHIT, SRC is probably lost too.Same goes to the other console ports
>>724601813Why no Genesis Ultimate 3?
>>724601732I'm playing the arcade version right now and it feels way closer to the version I remember; the snes version in the collection has the health bars way higher, the music is quieter, and the character select screen looks different too. Maybe I'm just remembering wrong, but the SNES and DS versions of umk3 are the only ones I've played before the kollection.
>>724599084>MK1, 2, 3 PC>MK4 PSXThese aren't needed. MK4 PS1 is basically in with the options for Shang's morphs and what did the PC versions even have that was different or worth including? The others you listed should definitely have been included.
>>724599460It's a Digital Eclipse joint, it being shit was to be expected.
>>724601898Because Genesis UMK 3 is literally a bad rushed port
>>724594891Even on the Steam page I can barely find any info on what games are in this collection, couldn't find a list anywhere.I have a copy of Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection and I think it's pretty good, though that one has only the arcade versions of MK1, MK2 and UMK3.Apparently this new Legacy Kollection is actually fine, and the current mixed rating on Steam is mostly due to nitpicking turboautists complaining about things like the lack of a square pixel aspect ratio option (it only has widescreen or 4:3 aspect ratio), and issues with online play.I still couldn't find a complete list of all games included though
>>724604791>I still couldn't find a complete list of all games included thoughDisregard that, found the full list on Wikipedia kekIt's disappointing that they didn't include the PS1 version of MK4, and the rare japan-only port of MK2 for the PS1.It's strange that they included only the shitty GBA port of Deadly Alliance, they should have included all the 6th-gen games
>>724605201>shittyI think it's good enough to be considered crappy, even if several characters barely work. I love all the color palette options.
I just watched the Tom Brady video. Not surprised this port is shit.
>>724607223I WANT A SUB ZERO MASK!
>>724594891If this game really has the awful input lag everyone is saying it does why is there no evidence? Where are the 50 comparison videos on YouTube? Why are all the reviews so positive?
>>724599084Who the hell plays 90s fighting games on pc? Must have been like 1% of players.
>>724608329>Why are all the reviews so positive?Paid shills.
>>724607223The NFL guy?
>>724607223unrelated but that nigga is a scammer. fuck him
>>724609057He's a notorious MK fan
>>724610994Oh damnhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnczWJfWoCs
>be mostly noob, played casually at some retro arcades>know the moves for some characters>queue for a game of arcade mk2, takes a few minutes to find one >finally get a game, laggy as fuck>dont win a single round in a bunch of matches, thats fine still fun I'll learn>start getting babality and nutpunch spammedGuy probably been playing since 1990, might refund though was hoping for better netcode and maybe some players i stood a chance against
>>724594891>sirs, what if, we offfered you shitty versions of roms and stolen emulator code? Would you buy it>yes sirs we wouldwhy the fuck are retards so bad
>no crossplay>no lobbies>no invites to play friends>terrible netcodeWhy is WB so cheap when it comes to MK? They could easily have afford to do all of this.
>>724612585I remember i saw an interview somewhere about multiversus, the dev said it was literally a cash grab and they didnt expect to get as popular as it did and they didnt have the budget to accomodate all thatSo basically the point is, its cash grab, thats what warner likes to do, they dont care about the product itself, they make something as cheap as possible and get a couple suckers to buy and move on
I'm sad. Why do they always fuck it up.
bump
>>724599084It's also missing UMK3 GEN, the game I actually fucking wanted.
>>724611234>it's trash>Digital EclipseWhy is literally ANYONE surprised by this?
>>724618642I don't know why people keep expecting anything from Digital Eclipse anymore. Their track record is consistently bad. They cut corners at every possible junction, then act like they're so awesome for bringing games back because they got the license deal to do it.
>another fucking lazy cash grab.they just hate money and are intentionally bankrupting themselves. guess reputation means nothing.
LIU KANG
>getting no games at 7pmYeah thinkin its doa
>>724618395why the genesis version? was it better or just nostalgia? I'm pissed it didn't have the saturn version because it's what I grew up with
>>724623447Genesis UMK3 is outright iconic. It's stupid that regular Genesis MK3 is there but not Ultimate. Apparently there's some sort of convoluted rights issue but it still sucks.
this kollection thing has the snes mortal kombat wrong. its supposed to have shao kahn calling the Aclaim logo a weak pathetic fool and then kintaro smashing it
Poor AI upscaling, bad MK4 emulation, no lobbies or private match at launch, no crossplay, no ranked, can’t do anything while queueing. awful audio, missing music, dropped inputs, "MK4 has random bugs like music changing if you low kick, Scorpion's loin cloth is red, game randomly crashes if you plug/unplug your keyboard/control, MK2 32x has no announcer, MKT still hangs a bit when you do Shang's morph, modern controls in MKM don't let you do roundhouse/sweep, games are either too loud or too quiet, random select is straight up broken in versus and practice because of save states and for some reason inputtin of kombat kodes randomly breaks on MK3+, music doesn't loop and sounds get glitched randomly in Trilogy, specially when morphing"Offline input lag too lmao
>>724625737this happens when you hold L+R or something and it does work in the kollection, I saw it on stream.
No Game Gear MKII. Whats up with this bullshit?
I'm mostly intersted for Trilogy and UMK3, is it worth waiting for a sale or is the game just cooked
>>724626882I heard singleplayer is generally fine
So where's the patch?
>>724618774Atari50 is bretty good though imo.
>>724611234Damn, he is really technical over the entire thing.
cross platform is fucking crucial
>>724594891trash games
>>724632069But enough talking about ArcSys>>724632042Digital Fumble cant do shit right, and this should had been a Inhouse development.unless they lost the source codes during the rebrand from Midway to Netherrealm Studios
>>724632042>>724612585Lack of lobbies, crossplay, and "queue for all games" options has altogether fucking MURDERED this gameIf it had at least one of these options, there's a chance the game could sustain decent numbers, avoid refunds and sell wellbut ALL of these features missing has completely fucked the online experience. I still haven't been able to find a single match in MK4, and I'm sitting waiting on the queue screen for 5+ mins to find an MK1 arcade game. Haven't even bothered trying the obscure handheld and console ports which I'm sure are impossible to find matches forWhat the fuck were they thinking. They are so fixated on their little "interactive documentary". Did they forget that people want to PLAY these games?? They aren't fun to play offline either, they never have been, the AI has always been fucked. What's the point. What a pure ripoff. Fucking bastards
How do i gitgud with Mileena, bros?
>>724633084I've gotten 2 games in MK2 where I got sweated all over, no luck at all with UMK3. And yeah, the ai is fucked 1-3 are extremely shitty for offline
>>724633084the CRT filter they made for this is garbage too, far more easier to load Arcade MK1 on RA or the GoG release ad boot the /vr/ preset.
I just want to play this online, new fighting games don't do it anymore. Why did they fuck it up.
>>724594891>it's ok that there's no 3D era games>it's ok that there's no MK Gold>it's ok that there's no MK4 PS1>it's ok that there's no MK3 PS1>it's ok that it's $50>it's ok that there's no ranked>it's ok that there's no crossplay>it's ok that there's no lobbies>it's ok that there's no leaderboard>it's ok that you can't even invite your friend to a 1v1 match>it's ok that the netcode is scuffed>it's ok that rollback audio issues from 10 year old versions of kaillera are present in this $50 2025 product>it's ok that MK2 32X version is outright missing character voices>it's ok that MK4 is full of glitches that regularly affect matches
>>724633371the AI in the arcade releases cheats all time.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUttRUpVnq4they read your input harder than SNK games does
>>724633526oh yeah i forgot about that, they were hyping it so fucking much before release like it was the greatest crt filter of all time. What the fuck is this trash. Way too blurry and just washes out all of the colors. I installed reshade and put CRT Guest Advanced on instead and it's wayyyy better. It is insulting how they have it + the lame borders on by default and you have to go through every single game and disable them manually.
>>724633586>>it's ok that there's no rankedIt stopped being ok here
>>724633578>Why did they fuck it up.It's all a demoralization campaign to keep critical thinkers upset and depressed
>>724633586>it's ok that no info about the current connection is displayed during the match>it's ok that you can't see your opponent's username during the match>it's ok that the move list doesn't list dial combos>it's ok that the bug in MK Trilogy where the music stops if the match runs too long which we saw all the way back in July still managed to ship in the launch version of the collection in october
>>724633578>>724633884Mortal Kombat fans are the most oppressed peoples in the history of the world.
>>724607223Absolute kino video by an absolute kino guy. His despair was visceral.
>kombos for characters aren't in the movelistlmao
>>724599084why would they add the pc versions? are you stupid?
what's the difference between umk3 and umk3 wave? how are you supposed to find games when you cant just pick "umk3", or "mk2"
>>724634207GoG has the PC releases up to date.
>>724634250playable noob and a bunch of balance patches
will mass refunds do anything
>>724634436so everyone will play wave, unless they are noobs like me? And I want to fight noobs like myself.
>>724594891>ai generated stages>input delay>no lobbies or invite system>no crossplay>limited selection of games>$70Why is WB so retarded?
>>724634719>$70You got the price wrong, engagement bot
>>724634603everybody should play wavenet but I feel like most people are queuing for regular UMK3 purely because they arent familiar with wavenet and also for the better players because they know more about it+technical aspects.This is the problem with this collection is you need to put on your masters degree sociologist cap to try and predict and psychoanalyze human behavior just for the fucking chance to find a match. And then when you do find a match it's going to play like ass. Disgraceful shit man I really cant believe this
>>724599084This collection needed the 3D era games, at least Deadly Alliance (not the gameboy one that’s included)
>>724634719See brady's video, he putting all the blame on warner wanting a quick buck before selling NRS to someone else
>>724635179I am totally fine with no 3D era games because those games are absolutely massive and I always assumed they would maybe do a separate collection for those games next year maybe. The scope of a product including every MK game and port from 1992 to 2007 is insane and unreasonable in my eyes. Plus look at the quality of this current collection, imagine what a poor state the 3D era games would have been in if they were included. I bet there would be no features to enable widescreen, increase internal resolution, etc. you'd be better off playing them in PCSX2.In terms of games I really do think MK Trilogy N64 and MK Gold should have been here though.
genuinely so bummed about this, bros. This collection and the mk2 movie were some of the only things Ive had to look forward to all year.
>>724599084If they had added Mortal Kombat: Deception that would’ve made this a day one purchase. The multiplayer/story mode were legendary.
Devs are apparently going to add crossplay in a future update.
>>724636041how would you emulate MKD?
>>724636041There's something so kino about this graphics style. I love it.
>>724636128>the chef is gonna season your food later bro
>>724636217Yes.
>>724636128The official FAQ on their website about future updates only mentions a lobby system. I think I've seen a few of the devs tweet about crossplay before but it's always with "it's a really big undertaking" attached to it. Honestly I would not count on crossplay coming to this collection.
>>724633246bros?
>>724636142Runs great on PCSX2 especially with the UMKD mod which adds 19 new playable characters and a bunch of costumes too.https://youtu.be/WDjQJp0b1xM
>>724626086>MK4 has random bugs like music changing if you low kick>Scorpion's loin cloth is redlol
>>724599084This, why the fuck did they add so many version of 1-3 and not for the rest????
>>724636607>Teeth>Teeth with lips that makes you a snek>Can transform into teeth and normal, is happy and looks like peak Rae Lil Black, and is voiced by StarfireMK1 mileena got the best of both worlds, but she is stuck in a meh gameAt least her R34 is gud
>>724635896>mk2 moviehow could you ever think that would be good after the first one
>>724594891>2025>we have "next gen" consoles>these retarded companies still can't properly port fucking ROMs for some reasonlmao wtf is going on?
>>724636971MK1 is fun
>>724637318Warner Bros wanting a quick money before selling NRS
At least the arcade games are there, I guess I'll enjoy MK2 and UMK3 as long as they run fine.
>>724637184First one was shit yes but trailer for the new one looks much better, I appreciate that Johnny Cage is finally going to be portrayed as a human being again after being a total caricature in MK11 and MK1, casting for Kitana and Shao Kahn are perfect. Feedback from test screenings last year and leaks all agree that the movie is really really good. Honestly even though the first one was not good there were still aspects I really liked.
Am I crazy or is the percussion in the MK1 soundtrack way more overpowering than usual?? Compared to the other instruments.
>>724638286my biggest grip with UMK 3 is that they didnt care to update it with the MK3 intro and ending slides, they left that to trilogy and the console ports.
>>724638508it just sucks liu kang is going to job, I'd rather him not be in it at all
>>724612585>crossplay>not krossplay
>>724639664Yes I can agree with that. At least it seems like he gets a cool fight vs Kung Lao although it does feel really early in the storyline to be playing around with revenant characters like that (Kung Lao definitely shouldn't have died in the first one). I am a big Kitana fan so I don't mind that she is getting the spotlight but Liu definitely needs a bigger role
>>724626086To be fail, MK4 is not fully emulated yet in MAME. Still I wanted to give them the benefit of doubt, but it's a shame, the extra content seems very good.
>>724618774They were so arrogant about the Mega Man Collection >Uh, we offered no basic performance improving features like the option to eliminate slowdown and sprite flicker because this is supposed to be an AUTHENTIC experience using our unique emulation technology >look inside>it's a rom and a shitty emulator
>>724594891Apparently the switch 1 version of mk4 is offline only. What huge load of shit. Hiring Digital eclipse was big fucking mistake.
>>724618774They got better in recent collections, but they still can't into fighters.
How do I beat goro
>>724642127Just beat him nvm lmao, how do I beat shang tsung
>>724633246Throw sai, roll, repeat.
>>724642360Hit him until he's dead.
>>724634207For history and documentation sake, you know? The whole point of documentary-styled collections like these?Everyone knows that at least the pc releases of mk1 and 2 are the most accurate and closest to the arcade there is. And people should know about them. Mk3 is the one with problems but it is also something that should be there.
>want to play MK2>get thrown to deathWhat the fuck is this?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjRfsyDcVi0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjRfsyDcVi0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjRfsyDcVi0IT'S OVER FOR SHILLNIGGERS
>>724643046Based Tom telling it like it is
>>724643046Who's this guy by the way?
>>724641458Honestly surprised they still get employed. I'm glad Capcom gave them the boot after Legacy 1 and 30th Anniversary. It's a shame Konami went with them for Cowabunga Collection instead of just sticking with M2.>Here, have some shitty roms and emulators with 6 frames of input lag>No, we did not standardized basic emulation features across every game>ONE save state slot per game. Get fucked if you wanted multiple slots to have across a game because we're not giving you a stage select, except for one game>We were too lazy to have a proper character select inside the arcade game, have a bare minimum one with a shitty UI before we load the rom with our multiple save states to account for every option, lol>Online play? You got it!*>*only on a few specific games. What do you mean you wanted Turtles in Time SNES? Just play the arcade version! It's literally the same game!
What's the best version of trilogy available? I never managed to get the music work in the PSX version and the N64 looks and sounds like shit
>>724618774The only decent thing they did was hire a programmer to make an atari jaguar emulator >Not even open source >Programmer is a schizo who hates it anywayNever mind. they can't even do that right
>>724643825idk but he makes redditroons seethe, so he's based
>>724643046based lord bradyhttps://www.soundboard.com/sb/thelordbrady
>>724643864They added online to Turtles in Time SNES.
>>724643825Your Hall of Famer and the most hated man in NFL history for being damn good and putting the patriots at every super bowl.
>>724642981The ai transparently cheats and does things that are impossible on mk2. They throw while you are mid frame, raiden did a 180 and kicked me during his superman fly.
Why are all these legacy collections allergic to the PS2 generation of games?
>>724645028Harder to emulate, take up more space. It'll either be DLC or Kollection 2 will cover the next gen.
>>724645028Because PS2 emulation is very very hard. It's like asking why aren't there more sega saturn collections. It's possible but it's also time consuming. Ideally you would get a native port based on those versions but even then you would need the original source codes for that stuff
>DUUUUUUUUUDE THEY PUT WAVENET UMK3 IN THE KOLLECTION BROOOO THIS IS GONNA CHANGE EVERYTHING BBROOOOOOO>game releases>no one is talking about it
>>724645390it's just regular UMK3 but with playable Noob Saibot who only has one move and Kabal's dash move is easier to react to
>>724645572which sucks and was notorious because of the shoddy netcode.only FPS games and Wing Commander Armada got the damn thing right at that time.
>>724594891I guess it was too much to make an AI nerf versions of these games alongside the arcade ones, so people can actually have fun with old Mortal Kombat titles?
>>724646075muh authenticity
>>724644239That should have been there at launch, not months later.
>>724645028I guess they're saving it for a second collection, I believe this one is focused mostly on arcade era and console ports from the 90s
This game is a perfect example of Midway/Netherrealm's treatment with the Mortal Kombat Franchise in general. Soulless garbage for the sake of competing with Street Fighter for decades, meanwhile the only reason anyone bought it was the gore.
All they had to do was re-release MK9.Instead they re-release Special Forces
>>724646891If they ever re-release MK9 everyone will mock their asses for the manfaces the game had
>>724643046>compares Ketchup&Mustard to corrupt politiciansbased
>>724646891They did mythologies not special forces
>>724647072Special Forces is in here too.
>>724647195Oh lol
>>724599460This, imagine buying this shit.
>>724643046this guy is the biggest schizo in all of fighting games.

>>724651015He is going all out of war blaming Warner Bros for this
>>724649814annoying thing is that every single individual game, in the various different modes (offline normal, training, online, etc) has the damn filters by default and you have to change it per game, per mode.

In a better alternate world, where this collection was not done by Digital Eclipse. They would have thrown in WWF Wrestlemania as a bonus.
