This dude is hard af
I WONHAHAHAHAH
>>738371461This game came out nearly a decade before I was born, but I still insist MK lost its way when it abandoned orientalism.
>>738371974This is Trilogy, so 1996. Are you 20 or something?
>>738371668that's some bullshit
>>738371461Jump KickRunComboJump KickMK Bosses were not hard until MK9.Shout out to Noob Saibot for being a dirty asshole who introduces you to run combos.I kind of want MK Legacy but it is a lazy rom dump.
>>738371845>spamming jabs while you get put into throw loopslmfao its like i'm watching street fighter finals at evo japan
>>738371668It always felt wrong that Mortaro did not have fatalities originally.
>>738372240I watched this video with a bunch of neat combos and tricks to cheese him https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxNLOiJEUe8But that's kind of lame instead of taking on him the way God intended
>>738372343Too much humiliation desu You get thrown left and right and still has to witness that? Not cool man.
>>738371974Zoomer retardThis website is for ages 35+
>>738371668>make like 20 threads about fighting the cpu in mortal kombat everyday for like MONTHS>to the point where it completely kills /vr/ even and the board is dead now>playing like thisJesus christ some people here are genuinely mentally ill :|
lol yeah you can only beat him by cheesing him out. It's good though. Takes a while to figure out what works. That jump-forward + low kick seems to get him a lot.I really wish they just remade this game almost exactly the same but with a slightly higher resolution, nicer voice samples and sounds, and maybe better art for the fatalities lol. Instead of 16 femurs exploding out, maybe some other parts instead.
>>738372630Kontext?
>>738371461>SindelGood. Die.
>>738372630What? This is my first time posting this. I don't even visit anything outside of /tv/, /g/ and /v/. Fuck off with your schizo shit, man
>>738372689There's a mentally ill retard presumably with dementia that does nothing but making threads about the single player mode in fighting games all day, and all he's been doing all this time has been holding up-back. For months. Every day.
>>738372487I've seen too many fan mods to the point I suffer from an auto inflicted Mandela effect.Which was the first boss in MK to have fatalities? I want to say Shao Khan in MK3 because it did a stage fatality at times.Eventually MKT would give every boss a fatality but most of them involved people exploding into groups of torsos and femurs.Also OP which version of MKT are you playing? The Pc version plus the fan patch is the GOAT.
>>738372721Dude no it ain't, don't lie to me faggot
>>738372740Good for you. It's not me. Fuck off.
I remember Kintaro being harder in MKII. Possibly because the shittier arcade in town was close enough to ride my bike to and they had an MKII cabinet that was fucked up and automatically dropped you into very hard set Kintaro whenever you played. Basically a waste of 50 cents but I still tried it a ton despite never winning. Yes there was more than one arcade plus games at several other stores in a small shitty town with 25k people
>>738372740Wow, what a faggot.Now, officer, are you planning to do anything about the recurring faggot that spams twitter screencap threads or the people making Star Fox every 5 minutes?Because I will take whatever this is over that shit.Honestly, if you are a larger faggot for keeping tabs.Lol, cucked by a MK schizo.
>>738372745I'm playing MK Trilogy. Got Duckstation a few days ago because I wanted to revisit some old games. Having fun here and there. Life's good. >The Pc version plus the fan patch is the GOAT.I'll take a look. Don't know shit about MK versions tbqh>>738372697It's from the wiki https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/mortalkombat/images/7/71/Motaro.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20180325010611&path-prefix=pt
>>738372853I will take ten million star fox threads over a single thread about upbacking against the cpu in fighting games lol
>>738372812>and automatically dropped you into very hard set Kintaro whenever you played.No, that is just how MK ramped up the difficulty.The game was PAY to win. The CPU would ramp its difficulty to 11 but that counter then drop slightly per consecutive loss.So if you continued like 8 - 11 times, the CPU would drop around 7 which was very beatable, giving the illusion of skill.At the highest difficulty setting, the CPU cheated with frame perfect reflexes capable of blocking attacks immediately after the button press.
>>738373003NTA but Jesus, that's a sad knowledge to gain today. Now I wonder how many fighting games were pulling shit like that.
>>738372923Well you picked a perfect day.It is rare that a videogame thread stays up.And I want to talk about MK, kindly go fuck yourself.The Star Fox game looks okay too
>>738371668>>738371845not as hard are those load times
>>738373115Those load times are blazingly fast compared to the stuff we are used to today.
>>738371461What game is that?
It's interesting to put some versions side by side. By Armageddon, when you defeated an opponent between rounds, the characters went to their positions to initiate another round in the same scene, literally walking to their places. In old MK it's just a new screen with the fighters opposing each other. Honestly, making them walk feels like a waste and I suspect it makes no difference to 80% of gamers lol
>>738373064We kind of knew that but then a larger faggot would show up after beating a sub boss and play you with more quarters so yeah, arcades were kind of shitty but the games were great.It was the reverse of mobile gaming.
>>738372740Thats hilarious and you sound like a fragile little bitch
>>738371461SHAO KHAN: A kick takes away half of your healthMOTARO: A kick takes away half of your health but he's also fast to deliver a second kick
>>738373364I actually liked the animations.What I did not like however is that stage fatalities had become hazards and in that instance you would see an opponent turn into ash, and then the screen would reset like in older MK games.So watching your opponent's character turn into red paste by a crusher was just an ouchie.Odd decision.Not a fan of "Make your own fatality" either.MK really wanted to be Soul Calibur in the 3D era.
>>738371461It sucks him and Shao Khan did not have fatalities afaik
>>738373003>At the highest difficulty setting, the CPU cheated with frame perfect reflexes capable of blocking attacks immediately after the button press.Its called input reading and a lot of games had it. You barely even hover your finger over a button and the CPU already has a perfect counter to it. Dishonest difficulty.
>>738373003Kintaro was the first guy you played on this one. It would show you at the bottom of the tier fighting whoever but it was always Kintaro. I beat him a few times on other machines but never on that one. Never got through Shao Khan on any of them. Usually just drop a dollar and fuck off to play Virtua Fighter 2 where Kage would fucking obliterate you after three wins
>>738372913The dos version has less crashes, but can't be played online.The windows version crashes more often, but can be played online.
>>738373572Only in the N64 version. Here's Shao Kahn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqSe4bfcAco
I loved that Shao Kahn was the announcer in older games, and he would say "*I* win" instead of "Shao Kahn wins"
>>738373715Good enough, though. I'm playing very sporadically, for the occasional fun and challenge, the CPU is fine
>>738373950
>>738372447Seeing as the CPU openly cheats cheesing it is fair play.
>>738376497Fair enough
>>738371974>Abandoned orientalismM1K looks very oriental and it's regarded as the worst modern MK game.
>>738372523>shitlennials then: you have to be 18 to post here>shitlennials now: you have to be 60 years old to post here
>>738372853kek
>>738371461MK3 is easy because you have the run button to outpace the AI's usual psychic bullshit. Kabal especially lets you cheese through the game.
Every classic era MK can be beaten by alternating between uppercuts and low kicks, which is something I found weird because the games both have good combo tech and input reading AI, yet the AI just doesn’t have a counter for uppercut spam.
this nigga playing single player fighting game based
>>738372853Nintendo paid good money for the twenty starfox threads, thank you.
>>738373909Early Kahn was great.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iC3yoby8TaY
>>738379628Having the announcer be the final boss is the kind of soul I miss in fighting games.
MK was better than SF.
>>738371974MK's oriental aspect never felt real to me. All of their pagodas and castles felt like hollywood making pagodas and castles.
>>738371461I remember being disappointed at Motaro in the movie as a preteen. He gave me so much trouble yet here he is a some italian dude.
>>738371461Jumpkick spam. What fucking year is this?
>>738371461Just pick Motaro yourselfStand stillThe other Motaro will teleportPunch himRinse and repeatDid it on the legacy kollection earlier this year
>>738371461noob
>>738378449It was so cheap a few days ago that I could only expect it to be shitA better game wouldn't devaluate like that
>>738381870lmao goofy as fuck, yeahand thus ruined
>>738380956MK was riding off the 80s and 90s ninja and kung-fu craze.As such, it operates off of 80’s and 90’s Hollywood style orientalism rather than authenticity. You couldn’t get Japanese things like ninjas co-existing with clearly Chinese aesthetics otherwise.
>>738382407Capcom and other companies do the same and their games are actually good.
>Elder God TierMK, MK2, UMK3, UMKD, MK9, MKSM>GreatMK3, MKDA, MKMSZ (You're bad at video games if you dislike it)>Had potential but held back by modern shitMKX, MK11, MK1>Party game tierMKA>The Pit Bottom>MK4, MKSF, the others not worth mentioningRemaster MK9, Shaolin Monks, then do a UMK3 Shaolin Monks and lay the series to rest
>>738371461He sounded like the Dragonzord.
>>738384883>no DeceptionThe PS2 trilogy is kino, but I actually think Deadly Alliance is the weakest of the 3 purely because of the lack of stage fatalities and the fact that the Konquest Mode is phoned in compared to Deception’s and Armageddon’s.
>>738385189>UMKDAnon, it's right up tophttps://youtube.com/watch?v=WDjQJp0b1xM
>>738385503Ah, I wasn’t aware a version of Deception like this existed.
You know what, fuck it. Have some fanmade Mortal Kombat.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9YdVftZlIJY
>>738380956Yeah, orientalism is making uninformed mishmash of vaguely asian stuff from the prospective of the ignorant foreigner. Nowadays it is considered RACIST.
>>738371845Congrats anon
>>738371668haven'tseen this much mashing since i quit sf6
>>738371668>>738371845jesus were the load times really that bad?
>>738384232I know you want to say Ubisoft. Do it. Don't be afraid.
>>738383202>80s and 90s ninja and kung-fu craze.Try the 70s. It's literally a copy of Enter the Dragon and Bruce Lee. Kind of crazy I even have to post this.
>>738386570It began in the 70s, but continued all the way through the 80s and 90s. Plus, ninjas didn’t really enter the western cultural consciousness until the 80s, and ninjas are arguably the most iconic part of MK.
>>738385796Oh man, the stuff you find outThanks a lot, anon. Made my fucking day.
Beating UMK3 without save states is my greatest video game achievement
>>738386145Thanks. lol>>738386332I started replaying a few days ago, have barely one hour in short bursts of playtime, so yeah I was quite desperate kek
>>738387149Back then we had to git a lot more gud than todayVideogames today are pure fucking onions by default (with some exceptions and understandably: not everyone can put hours on it and moms need to play videogames, too). You have to tweak it to your own taste. We used to get pure pain out of the box in many cases.
>>738387396The downside is that the difficulty wasn’t always fair though. Some things in old games were deliberately designed to be bullshit to sell strategy guides.
i really want to buy Sprocket from steam but i dont have the luxury to buy online stuff, i dont know if this is the right "Board" to post about this, im new to 4chan, but is there a way that Sprocket can be pirated?
>>738371974>NOOO WHY DIDN'T YOU WORSHIP CHINKS MORE WHY CAN'T EVERYTHING BE ANIMElol. raiden is and will always be a white man, keep coping
>>738387680That's fair, and indeed, there was bullshit.
>>738387857For Christ's sake, anon. It's really fucking cheap and it's an indie game. Literally go trim someone's lawn to buy it. I'm not going to help you pirate, but if you absolutely must, there is no DRM and the game is available in major pirate sites. The version is this one: V0.2.50.10.
