Killer Instinct Has Micro-Transactions

Yeah combo breakers are a thing. What makes this so interesting is its part skill part psychology even more so than say SFiv or marvel. To get the 75&% combos you gotta get lucky with lockouts.

There's a shit ton of mind games being played at the same time. 

Trick your opponent into countering, and counter them back into a more brutal combo. That's what I was doing.

Plus you have to use an ender at the right time or your 40 hit combo doesn't break 20% 

if I was getting an x1 this and titanfall would be the reason. Mostly this.

Well Titanfall will be on PS4 by 2015 so nbd.

Yeah Titanfall will come to PS4. I'm sure of that. 

Kind of off topic but EA bet on the wrong horse this gen. Titanfall being timed exclusive and Battlefield getting timed exclusive DLC on X1. The pre-order numbers (if accurate) show that PS4 is way ahead. I predict that Mirrors Edge 2 and Star Wars Battlefront will have some content exclusive to Sony.

Well they went back to the shooter side thinking things wouldnt change. It makes sense that they did, but that'll change soon since theyre trying to be gamer-friendly. Although titanfall was probably Respawn's call, not EA's.

People keep talking about KI being one of the games to get an xbox for, but in reality, from all of the ps4 f2p games that have been announced so far, sony takes the trophy for having more variety. Is it enough to win people over though? I mean, we do live in a generation where people want sequels (aka, not variety..) over anything else (assassins creed, cod, uncharted, halo, etc)

you don't no anthing about a fighting game till it comes out

wait then judge but i still don't think it's gonna turn up well KI was much to begin with and i'm not sure if they can make a good fighting game out of it

KI has a distinct advantage of being the only next gen fighting game. And as paper said until it comesout we have no idea. That said just cause its f2p doesn't mean Sony's bundles of f2p games automatically make it obsolete. Its the only brand new one for one and so far looks solid.

well your kinda wrong and kinda right, cause divekick is coming come to PS4

Divekick doesn't count cause theres nothing to learn in it. Awesome game but doesn't count.

don't say that. that game has way to much than it needs be

Well yeah its very complex for two buttons. But its still a two button game. Its not very in-depth. It just doesn't count. Its fucking hype though.

Well one could argue that KI is also essentially two buttons since combos are the entirety of the goal here.

Just the fact this is a full game with only 6 characters unlocked and having to buy out more than half of it's roster is enough to make this a no buy and DEFINITELY not a good reason to fork over money for the XBOXOne. Killer Instinct is awesome and all, but fuck them for pulling a stupid stunt like this.

And I'll say it again: WHERE ARE THE FINISHERS?

That was another major aspect of Killer Instinct that I don't see in this particular version.

the devs wanna work more it being a good fighting game which is werid cause KI was never a good fighting game

And finishers weren't a major part of KI. It was. One Iof the most hated additions to a fighting game of all time. Ya know cause ultras are better. asking if finishers will be in ki 3 is known to cause storms. We also aren't looking at the full roster. And I don't think its full price although its close. It is close but yeah not full price. And if you see reactions of people who played it its very fun not the sfiv clone people wrote it off as.

From what I remember they're launching with 6 and adding only two more characters as DLC, unless they changed their minds and said "maybe there''ll be more no promises DRM is hidden it'll be back we promise Leo."

 I call shenanigans. There are fans of KI who still want No Mercy finishers implemented (even rooftop finishers). And it's not a minority of fans either from what I can see.

From what I can see it is. Ki has its ultras that's all it needs. I dunno where your going but I doubt its ki oriented.

Just because players like the ultra system does not mean they hate the finishers.

I agree, in fact, most people want the finishers back from what I've heard...

Black "Big Titty" Orchid confirmed.

Also Spider Woman was announced... I'm too lazy to look up her name though
