I loved how they didn't like Smoke's OTG smoke bomb because it gave him a 45% combo...so they "nerfed" it by making it do a 107% reset lmao. And then when they patched it, it was still on the MK2 costume so you could choose if you wanted resets or otg smoke bombs.

Oh heck yes, I been waiting for this. I heard Cyrax was nerfed throughout the game and still ended up a top 3 character. It's funny when we think about how characters get nerfed hard with patches starting in Injustice 1 and the future games. Glad to see this beautiful gift this morning

@Skkra Ай бұрын

The MK9 era was spectacular. This game was amazing despite how overall unbalanced it was, but mannn, sometimes a game is just so damn FUN that that doesn't matter. It's kind of funny that the first attempt at a modern MK ended up being the best one. Subsequent MK titles have gone increasingly downhill from here. My friends and I started having monthly MK9 sessions again. This game is still awesome.

@kylereno5383 Ай бұрын

MK9 will forever hold a special place in my heart and I feel is still the best Mortal Kombat. I was a Kenshi, Cyrax, Reptile and Sub player. Its pretty insane when you realize just how many tools Cyrax had lol.

@strippinheat Ай бұрын

I really wish more fighting games would give us version selects, at least in training mode, so we could test this sort of stuff. SF4 kind of does this, but it's only for the final revisions of each packaged version and not every single patch, but it's still nice. And we can even use it in versus mode. Even back in SSF2T days we could pick SF2 versions of characters with a code, and they're allowed in tournaments.

@GreenChillZone Ай бұрын

It's unfortunate how hard it is to preserve pre-patched versions of modern games. Especially with how nowadays new mechanics will get added in updates that significantly alter the game but unlike when old games would get champion editions and whatnot, you can't easily go back to that day one experience.

Go to the installation folder (forgot what it is called , it is above to save data though) 2.Delete the installation data 3.Start the game 4. (If you are connect to the internet) do not do the update and the game should start as the vanilla version. Note: If you are using MK9 komplete edition it will likely not work due to being likely based on the first patch with all DLC characters.

The HD era started so many terrible things. Having to wait to install updates (especially on the slower internet back then), bad DLC practices, games getting delisted, series that began on PC started being dumbed down for consoles, always online games, waggle, overuse of bloom and underuse of colors other than gray and brown, local multiplayer getting shafted because of online play, Japanese developers trying and failing to Westernize their games (example: DMC), Games for Windows Live, RRoD and YLoD, and the greater cost of HD development destroying smaller studios. However, we did get some nice things, like the rise of indie games.

I don't know much about MK9 techs but I remember Shang Tsung having a damage increase after soul steal move and if I'm not tripping, it used to stack. After doing 3 soul steals my damage was at least double and it didn't go away like it does in the current version.

Now again we know this stuff took time to find but technically he had all of this at day 1 of the game. Perhaps the most overpowered broken character in the history of any mortal kombat game?

"No Kratos either" Lets be real: This game should never have launched without Xbox having a mascot in the game. that aside, I don't recall any of these details despite buying it day one, it's very nostalgic to see the game that revived the franchise at it's worst and then rise even further beyond expectations. (Also i hated Cyrax back in the MK9 days)

I remember founding out a glitch back when i got the game. No idea about the version, but i know it was patched after a few years when i decided to play again. The glitch was hitting a charged back 2 into X Ray, maybe with a jump punch to bounce the enemy first, i don't remember. But timing it right would glitch the xray and turn both characthers 90 degrees sideways. Making they face or be with their back against the camera. Pretty weird and silly with no actual gameplay influence besides funny animation
