I don't know if it's been touched on or if it's more of a console centric glitch but if you want to save your sanity -- DISABLE DISTRESS BEACONS BEFORE SCRAPPING THEM.
If yous scrap them in your settlement the game will forever ping a distress beacon in the spot where it was scrapped and you will never be able to turn it off because it doesn't exist anymore. Also seeing as the most they get you is a few steel it's almost never worth picking them up in the first place. Just turn them off and move on.
Also note that if you do NOT deactivate a beacon and instead stash it in your workbench the same still happens. It will ping from your workbench.
I dunno how something saying "They probably should've asked me if I wanted my likeness in this trailer" is an overreaction. Seems like a pretty sane and reasonable reaction, really. The fact that's it's both someone who doesn't particularly care for the franchise (and currently the product it's representing) as well as someone who's been burned by weird PR practices before just makes it all the more sane.
It all just boils down to that they should've asked first. And even then if they wanted to nod and wink maybe they could've used someone that...likes the game?
@grizzlybears: As far as I'm aware the Crucible Matchmaking algorithm they use puts preference on latency (distance between users) and matching parties with other parties. Other than that it's purely random and I think after a pretty quick search for those two criteria it just jumps to throwing you into the first match it can find for you. For good or bad.
Pretty much that. The only other thing it prioritizes I've noticed are maps. Very rarely will you play the same map twice in a row even if you've left crucible and come back to it. It's fairly random in probably the most fair way. If you are getting saddled with losers just try to grit out the match and how RNGesus gifts you some good shit for doing nothing.
@hippie_genocide: A lot of characters lack of apperance in MKX proper is explained in the comics. As for those two they are both canonically dead. Sektor (who was the Grandmaster at this point) was killed by Sub-Zero after he uploaded a virus that was going to infect/kill the Cyber Lin Kuei, Cyrax was infected and reverted to being good just long enough to help Sub-Zero fight off the rest of the clan. Cyrax then named Sub-Zero the new Grandmaster and told him to return the Lin Kuei to their former glory and self destructed killing himself and the other Cyber Lin-Kuei. .
As for throwing out the continuity MK9 was effectively a reboot of the entire series so MK9 and MKX are whole new canons and anything pre MKDC is disregarded for the most part. The MKX comics themselves are chock full of cameos from The Dark Ages and characters that aren't in the game that have waaaaay bigger/expanded roles. ...And a lot of them get killed off.
People are acting like these are fully locked away characters hidden in the game. They are NPCs rendered that are only half complete at best and fit only to pose a (minimal) challenge in the storymode.
