In what way? I've been playing for ages and it's great fun.

if he's talking about the hardware (which is most likely), then he means how the old regime designed the X1, hence having the technically inferior version of MK X

Based on those shots on DF? Yeah they are!
What did they do, blurry and crushed blackson PC? WTF

What blur are you talking about?

Crushed-blacks are in cutscenes, which don't affect gameplay.

Can we please stop saying this in every DF thread? The amount of people who say or think that are excruciatingly small.

Nope. Thanks.

I was playing the PS4 version earlier today and while solid 60 fps is nice, 30 fps during X-rays and cutscenes is very distracting. Any reason they couldn't be rendered at 60 fps?

If you want to be pedantic, sure, you can play a round or two, but you'll crash to desktop sooner or later or error out making it tedious to to play instead of fun. And I haven't seen any PC players play without issues, and I don't know a single person who does.

Weird I watched a guy do 10 online matches in a row last night just fine on the PC version. I've seen plenty of people playing it without issue on twitch.

I don't know what people are talking about. Here's a PC screenshot.

Only crushed blacks I've seen are in the cutscenes.

Yup. Blacks aren't crushed outside of cutscenes.

So, the PC does not have anything less than consoles, and can run at higher resolutions than 1080p.
If you have enough grunt this is definitely the best version of the game, much at the dismay of some.

After watching both videos that showed the FPS difference, the Xbox One version actually only has dips when transitioning to x-ray, fatalities and cut scenes and also when you last hit someone to win the round. when doing actual combos it stayed rock solid at 60FPS and never dropped, So during actual game play it's 60FPS so the Xbox One version can be used for tournaments and the players should have no issues at all.

Honest question GAF, should I cancel my PS3 pre-order? If High Voltage managed to fuck-up the PC version this badly, what is left for old gen? The only reason I'm keeping it is the hefty E3 discount from last year, but I rather wait on a sale for the PC version (sub $15) than pay around $47 for a shit port.

I heard the net code is terrible though. So for many it really wouldn't be. Maybe if you have a high end PC and stick to single player.

Honestly, frame rate drops in fighting games, be it as small as 2 frames, is still a big issue in my opinion of course.

NX said the drops happen after the fight is over. Does DF specify where this 1 or 2 frame drops happen?

Yeah, right as the fight ends, you can detect a very small frame-time disturbance. Not sure what's causing it but I haven't found it too distracting since it doesn't occur during gameplay and doesn't persist for any length of time. I'm playing on PS4.

Honestly, I just wish they would fixt the pre-rendered cutscene playback. The story mode was a huge draw for me and it really detracts from the presentation. MK9 and Injustice didn't have any issues like this but it looks rather awful during any sort of panning shots.

What struck me was that the iOS game shares some video footage with the console game yet it plays back completely smoothly. Annoying. :\

That looks exactly the same gamma as the PS4 for that stage. Compare the much darker 'Past' version of the same stage and you'll see lots of missing detail in the dark portion on the right. The car rim specifically. Well, you will when you raise the in game brightness.

I'm not seeing how the PS4 version wins out over the PC version, but the difference isn't as much as it could have been. Locked 30fps xrays and whatnot being the biggest issue. Thankfully it doesn't bother me much.
