Really looking forward to Spinal.

I also hope they add TJ Combo, Riptor and Cinder as well.

Yeah lot of cool characters in this game. I still haven't really learned the in depth parts of the combat system.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Yea i havent gotten too in depth myself, i mean i know the openers and linkers and autos for the characters I use(Jago and SabreWulf), but I haven't really studied anyone else, so combo breakers for me tend to be just a luck of the draw.

 

[The Hill]

Man, manuals are REALLY tough this time around. It's like the 1-frame links in SSFIV.

 

[ShadowBoxer]

My major issue with the game really has nothing to do with the game itself, more so the community. The among of rage quitters is getting ridiculous and there seems to be no penalty for it.

It can't be any worse than it was in MK or SF. Rage quitters will always be part of fighters online.

But unlike those games, KI doesn't have a system in place to track or set penalties for quitting. You keep your rank if you quit.

Yea that's annoying. I haven't seen a good system for quitters tho. Even in MK or Injustice it's dodgey at best.

I haven't looked at the game since I saw Beast... uh, I mean Sabrewulf and Jago fight SF4 style. Does Orchid still have greenish, goldish skin or is she pale?

She's neither.

On the last Twitch feed, the MS dudes said they were aware of the RQ's and are working on a system for it. I think as the game progresses, we will see lots of good changes.

I still find it hard to believe the game was released just a little over 2 months ago.

Spinal trailer coming via IGN @ 1pm on Thursday.

 

[jacobed]

Spinal looks awesome

 

[Duke]

Players playing Killer Instinct & "rage quit" or just abruptly quit the game will be "jailed".

[Iceman]

Excellent! I love that it's called getting 'jailed' lol. Wish all games did something like this, especially FIFA.

 

[Benstamania]

Plan on nabbing this too. I assume it has a season pass?

Not really. It's kind of odd how they handle the game. Like you download it for free but only get one character. Then you can either spend 20 bux which unlocks all the characters or 39(I think) which unlocks all the characters and outfits and gets you the classic KI. I'm not sure how spinal and Fulgore are being handled, rather they are part of those paid packs or they'll be seperate.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

I just saw a clip of classic Sabrewulf vs classic Glacius. Any word on when those outfits are coming?

 

[Poetic Chaos]

The people who paid $20 were promised the full 8 characters of season 1. So Spinal and Fulgore should fulfill that.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Yea I just noticed Spinal had been added. He is BAD ASS! Holy s**t. New fav for sure.

I also noticed that classic Jago, Orchid, Glacius and Sabrewulf are there but locked. How u unlock em? Anyone know?

 

[Midnyte_Sun]

They were free for the Ultra Pack people. Not sure how it works for the other packages.

 

[Benstamania]

Can you still buy the Ultra Pack or whatever? If so I'm probably gonna buy that.

 

[X Knight]

will they ever release a retail, disc based version of this in the future?
