Is Rash fun? I'm willing to drop the shekels on him but not for the entire season 3
>>333437410
We're not playing vidya here m8
>>333437410
I've read people say he's fucking busted. He's fun as shit though and has one of the greatest taunts in a fighting game ever.
>video games have seasons now
I want this cancer to go into the darkest pit, darkest hole in the known universe and have every person who supports this drivel to get anal fucked by a barbed dildo.
Fuck I am so mad.
Also btw i've never played battletoads, the meme just looks so fun
>>333437410
Rash is fun. Super good. Which means he might get nerfed soon
>>333437410
Fun to play as, not fun to play against because of his fucking boulder.
>>333437710
Had to man. Microsoft only greenlit KI with the agreement of an extremely low budged. Unlike capcom or the Forza people who have plans from day 0 to have DLC, KI was not going to make it past season one without interest.
>>333437710
I don't know why they decided to call it "season". That doesn't even make sense.
But yeah, the industry is shit. More news at 11.
Yes. He's also considered high tier early on.
>>333437950
Goddamn niggers that spam wrecking ball
>>333438230
block it
>>333438421
And then figure out what side the jump in is coming? Still a pain in the ass.
>>333438584
BLOCK IT
I bought him
>>333438837
The jump in or the wrecking ball? Probably mean the jump in. It's like Riptor, it's designed to be a pain in the ass. And if you have an anti-air that's ass (Kim Wu), even harder.
>>333437710
The seasons in KI are literally expansion packs you cuck, stop complaining
>>333439432
But "season" doesn't even make fucking sense.
Guys.... He's fun
Want those colors tho
>>333439404
>tfw kim wu has no answer to wrecking ball shenanigans
I've only found two answers to it and they both rely on specific height and air attack timing. So terrible. And no. Parry isn't one since it doesn't fucking auto-correct like Hisako's.
>>333439716
Well, grind.
>>333439894
Mind sharing. I just use down HP to light dragon dance juggle. Works.....sometimes
>>333439716
Tip: slam that taunt button when you take a round
Fucking do it
>>333440008
It's either that or you dash forward. You can never know which one will work so you may as well block.
Is he the Dan of Killer Instinct?
Rash is literally the most fun character in a fighting game ever.
So owning Rare Replay no longer lets me get him for free?
I have to buy Season 3?
Fuck.
>>333440161
ugh, at least Riptor has recovery on whiff. Been dealing with the toad shenanigans since e3 last year.
Is Arby a good noob character?
I remember trying KI last year and not getting the hang of it but I might come back and put some more time in it if he's not too hard to use.
>>333437410
Everything about this game is incredibly fun, it blows SFV out of the water on PC
Anyone here hype for the newcomer and Raam? Raam's announcement made me wish classic finishers were still in the game.
>>333440694
He's not the easiest, but he's far from the hardest. Probably a middle ground in terms of difficulty.
>>333440290
He's a meme character who's actually good, so I'd say he's more like Faust.
>>333440572
Rare Replay just let you try the beta version of him. You don't have to buy season 3, you can just get Rash by himself for 5 buckaroonis.
>>333441078
>Implying Dan the man, isn't good to begin with
Just because he has shit normals doesn't mean the character is bad.
Actually there are more cases of Dans doing good in tournament than a character like Gouken for instancE.
when that little grey L comes above your head does that mean you broke too late?
>>333442108
or too early. Just means the timing is wrong. In previous season, it would also tell if you had the correct breaker with color codes. Shame they changed that.
>>333437710
Just consider it a meand og obtainong media. The base game id free, and you only have to pay for the characters you want to use. So dropping $5 on a fighting gmae whwre you have 1 main seems better thsn spendinh $60 gor characters you won't use.
>>333442250
thanks. i can break heavies easily because i can react in time but lights are a little tough
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wi3829NHL30
I love this theme.
>>333437710
Would you prefer Super Ultra Killer Instinct Omega 3rd Alpha Strike Arcade Edition?
So I'm doing the dojo and how exactly do manuals work? I'm trying to do one of them where I need to use manuals an I just get auto doubles. Is there some input or timing I'm supposed to do?
>>333442721
they're meant to be. You have to expect them out of player habit. Also, they are barely worth breaking since they do crap damage unless they are at the end of a combo. Their may goal is to lock you out.
>>333443163
If you play street fighter, they are like links. If you play tekken or soul calibur, they are just frames. If you play mortal kombat they are just inputs. Basically, timing.
>>333443163
No, manuals are normal attacks in between linkers that hit the near-perfect frame of keeping someone within a combo. You need to wait a bit longer before pressing a button so you throw out a normal attack.
Basically, its just timing. Really unreliable but rewarding if you can pull it off consistently.
>>333437710
You're a fucking idiot. They've been supporting the game that released in 2013 all the way up until now, and I've spent $60 total on 26 characters, story modes/cinematics for all of the characters, bunch of cosmetic skins and tons of new levels.
Killing Instinct 3 is Killer Instinct 3/4 combined into one game for the price of one game.
How do you block in killer instant i can not find out.
>>333443720
You don't, you combo people before they combo u
I play on keyboard/mouse btw
>>333440731
>His win pose is grabbing his foe's and said "FOR THE QUEEN!" as he stab them and Krylls flies around him and he roars just as the camera slowly close up to his face. From the Foe POV btw.
I think that's about as close as we can get.
>>333443720
Hold back. The dojo teaches you this stuff, you know.
>>333443821
Is it impossible?
I only ever use raptor and haven't lost a match yet, hence why I find the game pointless.
>>333443910
Do you play on very hard? I find that very difficult to believe
>>333443163
Do the input a bit later than you'd do a auto double.
So you'd do your opener, auto double, linker, finisher
So do opener (wait like .5 seconds or a bit longer) then try for your L/M/H manual. Then linker. Then ender
getting the hang of breaking combos
hisako bitch moves throw me off so hard tho
>>333443163
Timing. Just wait until the window for the auto is past but before they've completely recovered.
>>333439518
It does though, it's just like a new season for a television series.
>>333443163
Also manuals do less damage than an auto double but are harder to combo break
I really like Killing Instinct it's the best fighter to come out in years
>>333444001
I've only ever played like 6 matches online.
Xbox one fag here., I legit just smash the buttons.
>>333437710
>Upset over wording.
It's literally an "expansion" or "Super Killer Instinct Arcade Edition" pick which ever terminology you want fag.
>>333444224
Because at that level, all everyone else is doing is smashing buttons too. It'll change once you get to gold at least. Everyone below that pretty much sucks, honestly.
>>333443720
Just hold back to block mid/highs/ and over heads
Hold down back to block lows/mids/ and to have your opponent wide highs.
Overheads will hit of you're crouch blocking
>>333444349
I don`t think im gonna keep playing desu, I only have the free version and it hasn't done anything for me.
is there anyway i can disable KI picking up my mic? or is my only option to unplug it?
>>333444224
i did for awhile but im just diving into the mechanics now because rash is fun. if not for rash making it fun for me i would have probably skipped because the other characters were boring
>>333444516
In the character select there should be an option to mute your opponent.
i think that's your best option
>>333444516
Type "settings" into cortana -> pick the store settings -> privacy -> microphone -> Killer Instinct.
Or press start during the matchup screen to mute your opponent.
>>333444736
>>333444657
muting the opponent mutes my mic as well?
Killing Instinct has a good soundtrack, sounds like Dragonforce
>>333444794
No. But he can't hear you.
>>333438013
The fighting game audience everyone
>>333442665
Holy fuck, what is wrong with your keyboard
If anything, they nailed his personality down goddamn pat
Who is the antagonist in Killing Instinct? I keep hearing about Ultratech but I don't know who they are
>>333445264
The robot CEO of Ultratech Aria, her horde of Kilgore bots, and her lackeys including Cinder and Sadira.
>>333444224
you most likely have combo assist and you fight new players, they don't know how to break or zone.
It's always like that, you start a game and get a wall of newbies you can faceroll. Play a bit more and you'll get you ass handed to you.
>>333445264
Gargos. Ultratech are seen as the bad guys, but they're thinking of thd greater good. Aria is the main "villian" right now, because she's willing to fuck with technology and test on people in the hope it'll save everyone from Gargos.
>>333445510
So Killing Instinct is about destroying this company? Lore interests me
>>333445264
Was Shadow Jago in season 1, Aria in season 2 and probably Gargos in season 3.
You can read the character stories on their site. Aria's is pretty good and should tell you enough. The story modes will give you some info too.
http://www.ultra-combo.com/character/aria/
>>333437710
It's just a prank, goy.
>>333438013
What does it mean for a character to be high tier early on? Do you by chance mean he's easy to use?
>>333437710
I hope you die.
>>333445614
>So Killing Instinct is about destroying this company?
Yes and no. Depends on the character. As >>333445596 said, some understand what they're doing, others believe the threat of Gargos doesn't justify it.
>>333445787
I assume he means that he's very powerful against players who are less familiar with his moveset.
Overall is Killing Instinct better than Mortal Kombat X? I can get that for $8 and Street Fighter V for $31
>>333445945
MKx yes. MKXL depends, they're to different to make comaprison.
>>333445813
Stop defending this bullshit you fucking sheep.
>>333446060
I'd rather Killing Instinct have seasons than Killing Instinct Ultra Combo Edition/Killing Instinct Ultra Combo Aracde Edition and Killing Instinct Supreme Victory Edition
arbiter is bullshit
how do i stop those nades?
>>333437710
>companies do something right for once and retarded niggers bitch on 4chins about it
You can still play the ASW garbage and pay 60$ for three characters and some on disc DLC if you prefer that model.
Who is the best KI character and why is it Omen?When he doesn't shoot triple duds
>>333446420
Its arbiter
>>333446527
Best Killing Instinct character is Cyrax or whatever his name is
>>333446292
Do something that makes you invincible when they're about to pop.
Grabs and Glacius Puddle come to mind.
>>333446603
its arbiter
Will there be a Killing Instinct 4?
>Opponent has left the lobby. Returning to the Main Menu
Can't bash the RASH
Get some ointment for that RASH
Who /spinal/ hereueheuheeheheh
>>333446983
Not for a while. They're not finished with 3 yet
>>333447410
Is Spinal the skelington in Killing Instinct?
>>333447410
always baybee.
>YAHAHAHA
>>333447476
Is Killing Instinct Season 3 the last Killing Instinct season?
>tfw indecisive and can't decide on who to play
Went from Sadira to Thunder to Jago and now I'm thinking of trying Omen or Glacius.
>>333447695
It probably will be, unless they decide to make more new characters. All the characters from 1 and 2 will be added by the end of season 3. They haven't announced Eyedol yet (the boss from 1) but there's 1 unannounced slot left
>>333447816
>Sadira and Jago
No. Please fucking stop, That's legit 70% of the online playerbase.
>>333447816
Glacius is the GOAT Killing Instinct character
>>333447903
Good. Killing Instinct is one of my favorite franchises.
>>333446420
You want to use shadow moves, here omen, fuck you.
How do I TJ Combo? I can never get a good combo going and if I do it's extremely predictable spinfist or auto barrage.
>>333447926
Been facing mostly Sabrewulfs and Arbiters, only think I've faced a Jago once.
>>333447985
Yup definitely was one of the first characters to catch my eye, although the ranged combos look like I'd have to get used to.
>>333448207
TJ Combo was my main in Killing Instinct 1 but I moved on, is he good in Killing Instinct 3?
>>333447903
Don't they also have the Shadow Lords mode stuff as well? Or did that get the axe?
>>333437710
Its a F2P fighting game stop being so mad.
>>333448207
Play against the cpu at high level, it will get you an idea of how TJ can piss people off
>>333448350
I don't know, I haven't followed it closely. They have a mode called Shadow Lab where I guess you train an AI to fight for you against other people's AIs
>>333448398
Killing Instinct is the best F2P game ever released desu
>>333448350
It's coming but we have very little details on it
>>333448541
Does it really count as f2p though? It's not like you can earn the other characters without paying
Was wondering why this thread was so full of shills. Duh, it's a Microsoft game. Only Blizzard has them beat on shitposting.
Now that you cunts have the rights to Rare properties just do everyone a favor and make a new Battletoads game
Wait a sec, you need to buy characters in this game? This fucking microsoft store is so confusing as well as this whole purchasing schemes with seasons.
>>333448734
Killing Instinct is the best fighter with characters on rotation demos
>>333448781
I'm not a shill, I'm a Killing Instinct fan.
>>333448510
This is a new season 3 mode that's set to drop sometime later in the season. Not sure what it is yet but it kinda looks like Soul Calibur 3's Chronicles of the Sword mode.
>>333448328
No idea, just got him but he seems versatile. He feels like he can get into trouble if he's not in the opponent's face though.
feels like a guessing game 80% of the time
>Try doing ranking matches for a change after screwing around with the shadow mode thing
>I only won one game, the other 'win' was because the other player dropped out at character selection screen out of pity of fighting me again.
...I don't think I'm going to have a fun time with this for a while...
>>333448829
You're a "fan" and you can't even get the goddamn name of the series right?
It's KILLER Instinct. Not KILLING you stupid fucking cunt
The music sucks shit.
>>333448781
A thread of people talking about the game and helping with questions, shills. You really took your time, popped in the thread, read through all of it to make that dumb post. You're special alright.
>>333449080
https://youtu.be/WjXou-PI8dI
nope Killing Instinct is GOAT music it sounds like Dragonforce
>>333449080
Your opinion our bait. I hope it's an opinion.
>>333443030
>other games were bad
>therefore, it's ok that this game is worse
>>333448997
dont worry im shit too. this game gets you frustrated like no other. the problem i have is looking at my character and knowing wen to break
The dojo tutorials should be mandatory before online play just like the system test.
>>333449028
It's called Killing Instinct here.
>>333449291
He's saying that it's better to have Killing Instinct as a product rather than these separate "expansion packs" that add 2 characters and charge another full MSRP again
>>333449165
>>333449219
it's not good as the original arcade soundtrack
>>333441381
The guy who said Dan is bad isn't actually saying Gouken is good though.
He has shit normals, like you said, and he has shit specials. Look at the projectile for example and its terrible reach. Dan's strengths can be played around easily as long as you know them in detail.
I like really technical/high skill ceiling characters but I only want to buy one to see if I like this game - should I get Aria or Omen? They looked pretty neat from those 30 second rundown videos they have.
Or are there better characters to consider for that?
>>333449319
This game has legit the best tutorial out of any fighting game I played.
>>333443574
>here's why i'm a fucking moron who sold himself down the river for a bunch of fucking nothing
thanks for the tip
>>333449668
Aria is pretty good if you like Marvel vs Capcom. She's literally a one woman(bot) MvC team, that sort of plays like Sagat, Fei Long and C Viper.
Kan ra and Aganos are also high skill ceiling. Can't really say much without knowing what type of playstyle you like, though. I'd say Aria.
>>333449539
Like I said man, I respect your opinion. They original arcade was sold as a legit soundtrack so you probably speak the truth. I love the work Mic gordon started by making it dynamic though.
should i play offline a little more before jumping back into online? i'm doing pretty eh
>>333450629
If you're playing for rank and it matters to you then maybe. Otherwise just jump in.
>>333450092
Kan ra actually looks pretty cool too. Guess I'll just see who has the cooler alts/colors between him and Aria.
>>333450629
Don't play offline too much unless it's with friends. The A.I. learns your pattern every game and becomes impossible at one point.
>>333450924
Isn't that just in the shadow lab?
>>333451026
Nopes. Plus it will start input reading at some point. Try it. It will blow your mind how it adapts to your antics.
