Update is now on the Switch. I’d assume it’s now on PS4 & XBone as well.

It now runs a 60 FPS on Switch, along with custom game mode and improved weapons

I’m a pretty big MK fanboy (is that the correct word to use these days?) I personally liked the event and can honestly see the industry moving towards these smaller, more intimate events where they don’t have to share the stage and I’m actually fine with that. The entire thing was less than an hour, so that’s was also good. It was well paced and had enough new videos to make it feel like it was worth your time.

As far the game itself and what was shown, the heavy influence of Injustice will turn more than a few people off, I don’t mind it, and the customization/load outs wasn’t that big of an issue online for the most part of you were a serious, competitive fighter (as they had lobbies where they disabled buffs). I haven’t played it yet obviously but it seems MK11 is going more for closer Kombat instead of the range/zoning spam its more akin to (I’m sure there will still be some). Skarlet being shown was a HUGE surprise, as this will be her first game proper. (She was DLC in MK9) & Baraka is always a fan favorite. Scorpion actually looks more varied this time around and seems he has some of Takeda moves, Sub Zero looks like Shredder from the first TMNT movie (he resembled him some in Deception), Geras is interesting with his time mechanic. Sonya looks gross. With the list of Kharacters already konfirmed and the ones that are in but not konfirmed, the list of potential new Kharacters is slimming. While I love the old Kharacters, I do enjoy the potential of new ones. The Kombat Kids from MKX weren’t well received and outside of Cassie, the other 3 likely won’t make the base roster. I’d bank on at least 8 DLC (9 with Shao Kahn) , the base roster is almost kompleted and we basically know over half.

Konfirmed

Scorpion

Raiden

Sub-Zero

Skarlet

Baraka

Sonya Rousey (very gross)

Geras

Kronika (not confirmed playable)

Shao Kahn (DLC, but will be in the story too)

Not Konfirmed, but seen in gameplay

Cassie

Liu Kang

Kitana

Kung Lao

Johnny Cage

Not Konfirmed, but hinted

Kabal

Noob Saibot

Rain

Kano

Shang Tsung

That’ over half the roster. I’d like a least a few post-Trilogy Kharacters to show up other than Kenshi, Quan Chi, & Shinnok

@drdarkstryfe: As a fan of the Jaguars, let’s hope it’s run better than Shad has run the Jaguars since he bought them. Lots of money spent, very little results to show for it outside of last year. His son, Tony is super into analytics and stuff, not sure how that applies to wrestling. Maybe Tony is just bankrolling but staying out of it? North Fla has a pretty big wrestling presence though and they could easily fill the Jacksonville Memorial Arena (where the Icemen hockey team plays)

Cody and Brandi were at a home game or 2 in Jax this season too

@atastyslurpee: Yeah I’ve been thinking about Moonlighter. I’ve heard a lot about Celeste, but I know nothing about it

@fear_the_booboo: Yes! I have Into the Breach on Steam and really like it. That’s an option

I have some heavy travel coming up soon and plan on utilizing my Switch more. What are some good games that run well on Switch in portability mode. I’m down with any genre except JRPGs.

I have Dead Cells, Sonic Mania, Hollow Knight, BotW, Odyssey, & Mario Kart 8 and I’ve put more time into Dead Cells than anything and I’ll def be putting some more time into what I already have. I have an insane amount of the big Indies on Steam but I’m honestly not opposed to double dipping on the Switch just for the portability aspect.

From what i understand about the level capping is that each level will now have a set difficulty.

I mostly play in handheld, which always seemed to run smoother than docked. I play Dead Cells quite a bit and there was a minor update a few weeks back that seemed to fix some of the framerate issues, though i cant confirm that 100% as i rarely play in docked

This biggest thing I took from that was each level now has a set difficulty, no more enemies leveling with you. Seems to give Scrolls a little more value imo BUT having deployables no longer regenerate automatically is super LAME

That's a HUGE patch btw

@catsakimbo: 100% incorrect. I live in TN, both the professional Football team (Titans) & the big college team (UT) are the number 1 rival for my 2 favorite teams. I genuinely, wholeheartedly hope the Titans and Vols lose EVERY SINGLE GAME they play. I hate them and their fans.

Location does not dictate who you root for in sports. I’ve never understood that concept. At all. That’s fine if you do root for local teams, but it’s not a rule nor is it weird not too. People have various reasons to not root for local teams (i.e. you’re not from the area, etc.)

As a Caps fan, I finally got to taste the sweet taste of victory. We broke curses and raised the Cup! I like the squad again this year (we are putting up some goals! 14 in 2 games) but Toronto and Tampa are just so loaded. Tavares looks revitalized. That Leafs/Blackhawks game was nuts! The West seems wide open, until Seattle joins the league and they get an All-Star team like Vegas did. I do think a Vegas comes down to reality this year though. San Jose, Winnipeg, & Anaheim look good

Side note: Makes you wonder why Anaheim ever got rid of the Mighty Ducks logo and unis cause they were sharp looking last night. Those throwbacks were so nice.

Weirdly enough, I've actually been keeping track. I was curious how many games I could finish this year for some weird reason.
