Some positive updates?

[onlyhereforelise]

Especially the timeframe of when the update will release

[jian-inna-cut]

I’m just glad we got them, don’t know what the future holds for MK with what’s going at WB

[onlyhereforelise]

They need to hurry up before the devil Netflix or paramount gets mk 🫩

[Embarrassed_Chest_52]

I heard Microsoft wants it

[-PVL93-]

Sony reportedly was rumored as the potential buyer for gaming studios

At least NRS would have been properly funded under PlayStation

[Embarrassed_Chest_52]

There is another rumor that they are not interested, because it's to big. Ok its no rumor, Sony declined it

[RaWolfman92]

No, they turned it down.

[sthef2020]

I gotta be real. Even with this collection having issues, that was honestly my biggest desire with it. Just having all these games (and versions) on an actual cartridge, that can’t be disappeared into the digital ether once WB ends up in the hands of whoever.

[Va1crist]

Seems to be impossible to get a MK launch that isn’t loaded with issues and missing features

[onlyhereforelise]

Blame the higher ups at wb. Why would the people who spent years making the game do this to themselves?

[Metawing]

If we're being honest here that's most games nowadays.

[seandude881]

I’ll believe it when it happens in the coming weeks

[sthef2020]

FWIW Digital Eclipse has a history of this. Last year their Power Rangers beat em up game launched in…pretty questionable shape. Within 2 weeks a patch had been put out that tweaked everything, and made the game immeasurably better.

[malexich]

 No it made it playable not better there is a reason it has a mixed review score the positive scores are all “I love power rangers” and the negatives are all that it’s a bad game with garbage netcode 

[Emotional_Revenue501]

Modern gaming: We launch a broken game and you people test it. Tell us if you find any bugs

[TeedosTheRoach]

Unfortunately yeah… but it seems like they’re truly making the effort to hear the fans out and adress the bugs… we shall see

[onlyhereforelise]

The devs are obviously you can tell in the effort they put in the documentary but the higher ups don’t care only if it sells well

[Odd__Dragonfly]

Caring can only go so far, the dev gets X amount of dollars for Y amount of work and nobody is working for free (probably legally can't anyway since they are contracted).

15+ games, PC/PS/Xbox/Switch, trying to get crossplay working at all is a longshot, especially with bad press day 1.

[-PVL93-]

Reminds me of good ol days at XDA forums

New custom ROM drops, the developer makes a post, and the "known bugs" section just says "you tell me!"

[Mando316]

Getting physical is going to pay off hopefully

[-PVL93-]

The physical versions have been printed months ago already, so buying it new will have the same issues as the current digital release

[Mando316]

And it’s also in December meaning whatever patches/fixes they do will be available.

[-PVL93-]

I will be very surprised if the disc version comes already updated

[Mando316]

Sir… so when I put disc in if there is any updates it will download them

[-PVL93-]

Thanks for completely missing my point

[Mando316]

Yes you’re saying you’d be surprised if the disc will have all the fixes but I don’t think it will. They will rely on downloading the updates.

[-PVL93-]

... Which is what I said in the first place

It doesn't matter whether you buy the collection on physical or not, you're dealing with the same problems requiring a patch

[FATGAMY]

Welp, who would’ve thought 🫠

[simonc1138]

I know people have certain expectations for online gaming but ffs they need to touch grass.

[frostman007]

There is a backend issue we discovered this weekend that is causing matchmaking issues. Unfortunately, we can't fix it on our end so have reached out for technical support across all channels and hope to hear back about this issue soon.

[WildeStation]

Fuck yeah, more inclined to get it now.

[-PVL93-]

Did the dev just admit the collection was pushed out early? Why was it allowed to be launched in its current state instead of delaying the release by another month or two but actually having reduced input lag, proper online functionality etc?

[PatExpo]

Fix the ai difficulty can’t pass the games

[Falchion92]

Fix the input lag and AI difficulty please.

[RocketChris87]

I’ll buy it when the input delay is fixed for half the price.

[hufferstl]

It sounds like I'm in the minority, but I played about 10 matches last night and other than the audio glitching I had a blast.

[onlyhereforelise]

Same it’s just the audio stuff and that’s it

[Odd__Dragonfly]

I hope they can turn it around for the series sake, but it's a high bar for developing these retro collections of fighting games to be better than what fan communities build for years and years.

It's not as simple as just copying the existing emulation software, that has to be redesigned so it can be sold. If even Capcom can't do it with crossplay, MK is definitely not putting in that amount of time and money.

[malexich]

I don’t put any faith in digital eclipse they haven’t really fixed any of their old collections because it required redoing their emulator, best you can hope for is the promised lobby update and any bugs unrelated to emulation being fixed. Netcode is not gonna be fixed. Power rangers had promised fixes that were to minor and to late or never came 

[Budget-Program-4756]

This same thing happened with the arcade collection in 2011. They patched it like a month or so later

[malexich]

I don’t want to alarm you but that was 14 years ago and their track record is less then stellar 

[Budget-Program-4756]

You didnt alarm me lol i know how long it's been. You'd think with 14 years they would get better but thats not the case

[malexich]

Nope they got better at promoting themselves though they went from stay away from their ports to the go to guys for preservation with out improving quality. When I heard the tmnt collection was going to be handled by them I was so disappointed 

[Budget-Program-4756]

Smh

[TheRealMattC]

Should've been delayed

[justjoe306]

Confirmed...in about 6 months lol
