Nice to see that the universal input for amplifying moves is back. It would still be fine if they would've not change it back but it's still nice they did. Also Johnny once again looks great, and I really loved that skin for Jade. And then Sonya mentioned Jax in the intro, so maybe he is coming back, that would be awesome.

Next week we are gonna see Kano, looking forward to it.

Yeah, Johnny Cage in MK11 is awsome! But, you know what, i watched stream until the end, and i wanna say that, despite that they are developers, they don't know how to play their own game. Why? Cause, if you know how to play, then why in the name of elder gods are you spamming the same projectile over and over and over again? If you know how to play then just go in there and start beating up you opponent, instead of throwing things at him. Other words: if you are spamming, then you don't know how to play!

p.s - Change my mind, i double dare you! :twisted:

They didn't spam, that was Zoning. Spamming is throwing the same move over and over again recklessly with no thought at all, and it's true to all types of attacks and not just projectiles. What the devs did on stream was Zoning, which is throwing the projectiles with thought and strategy. You may not like watching it, but that doesn't change the fact that it requires skill. As a mainly Zoning player myself, I know this very well. Also, 16 Bit and Dizzy are both great players who had a lot of success in tournaments in the past, they know their stuff. And Tyler and Derek are also pretty good players too, I've seen them play for a long time since the MKX Kombat Kast days.

Those are facts dude.

That IS what they did! If you spam the same move all over again, that means spamming. And zoning is, when you trying to push away your opponent by few special moves, and trying to tell him to back of, so you can see what is going on around you and define the strategy of your attack. And don't throw those facts of modern kids to me about zoning, cause that is NOT a zoning, that is trolling, spamming and disrespect to your opponent!

No, it wasn't spamming, as it wasn't done recklessly. Also, none of them used the same over and over again more then like twice in a row, and they used them depending on their position on the screen. So that is not spamming. And even if you do use a certain move 3-4 times in a row (which they didn't), this can also be a part of conditioning your opponent in order to bait him to make a mistake. If it's like 5 times plus and is clearly seen that is done with not thought at all, only then it's spamming.

Also, Zoning is not about "trying to tell him to back of, so you can see what is going on around you and define the strategy of your attack", it is about controlling the zone around you and your opponent. And then there is Keep away which is simply keeping your opponent away from you, which is another thing they did in their matches.

They know how to play dude.

Without going to deep into your discussion whether someone can or can't play the game, because I actually don't care if those guys can or can't, I want to add something. Just because you develop something, (code, desigh, test, whatsoever) doesn't mean you are an expert at using it.

Do you think that the people who create Photoshop are all professional artists? That's completely different set of skills.

That's true. Never said that Tyler and Derek are top pro players, they are only pretty good, which is still perfectly fine. 16 Bit and Dizzy however are former tournament players, so they are true pros. But you're right in general.
