LOCKED - A lot of hate for NetherRealm?

1. Kenshi dlc was a day late.

2. Your unlucky?

Unlucky about what?

People are upset that things didn't go the exact way they thought they would. So, they blow up over it instead of looking at the bigger picture or fully understanding what's going on. I have a feeling most of them are due for an aneurism or stroke soon with how quickly they jump the gun and freak out. NRS messed up a couple things but it's nothing serious, really. It's just a game.

Yeah, but it is also a game that we pre-paid for the DLC. Notice the word PRE-PAID. Meaning we paid before hand for services that were coming soon. The least they could do is get it out on time with no problems. You dont pre-pay for a service and then dont get a reason why it isnt done yet or why it isnt on time. If your a business and have customers pre-pay for your services and you dont deliver when you say you will than you better have a good explanation why because if you dont you will lose that customer and any other future customers that you would have had by word of mouth.

That's only an option, though. Nobody forced it on us to buy the season pass, which is also only 360 exclusive. The only real thing that slightly irritates me is the solution for desyncs. 360 has to re-download the skins, which isn't a big deal and takes 10 seconds at most. PS3 just get a patch to, supposedly, fix it. I would kind of like a patch released here since word of mouth only travels so far, and it's usually met with people scowling at you for even trying to help.

It maybe an option but still the least they could do is for those that did choose to pre-pay is to get the DLC out on time and with no problems. Hey, Boon favors PS over XBox that is no big secret. His denial of that is also very laughable.

Everyone has a preference. As for the DLC being late, I'm still sure it was MS goofing up on their update. It's happened before, so I'm not too surprised if that's the case again. As for the previous DLC messing with things, I do wish they'd work things out a bit better for it, but I think they will after they get the rest of the DLC finished and out.

Here is a quick timeline of the trouble gamers have faced.  I think most people would be accepting of some bumps in the road, but NRS has hit a lot of bumps in the road.  With that said, the major netcode problems are behind us, and I am able to enjoy the game fully now.

-Game released 4-19-11

-Within a couple of days most gamers that play online are very unhappy with the netcode...lag, desyncs, 5 min to match ranked or player matches, KOTH was insanely laggy with input delay at best, and some 1v1 matches that said they were a 4 dot ping rating were very laggy.  You get the point.  

-People wanted answers and NRS was hush-hush...the forums exploded with "nerd rage"

-On 4-27-11 NRS posted a official statement saying they were fixing the netcode and improvements will be noticed over the next couple of weeks.

-On 5-25-11 NRS Announces DLC for Klassic Kostume Pack. Oviously more upset fans since no update on the netcode fix, but we get DLC?

-On 6-7-11 Klassic Kostume Pack goes on sale...No Netcode fix

-On 6-11-11 The netcode patch hits PSN but not XBL.  Gamers immediately notice a couple of bugs.  Gamers who bought the Klassic Kostume Pack sometimes cannot access them during the character select screen and desyncs are very common during the character select screen.  This has to do with the Kostume pack and alternate costumes in general.  Obviously, people that bought the Kostume pack are upset.  On the flip side, Most all other problems with the netcode that I listed above are fixed.

-On 6-14-11 Skarlet is slated for a 6-21-11 release.

-On 6-20-11 XBL gets the netcode patch with all the good, bad, and ugly noted above.

-On 6-21-11 Skarlet hits the market. Some people had trouble accessing the Kombat Season Pass, but I don't really know much about it.

-On 6-24-11 NRS released a statement on how to correct the Klassic Kostume Desync bug.  I guess it works....some people didn't follow the directions though and desyncs still happen but not as much.

-On 6-27-11 Kenshi is slated for a 7-5-11 release.

-On 7-5-11 PSN gets Kenshi around 3pm Eastern...XBL is caught in limbo....Ed Boone says Kenshi will be on XBL at 5pm on his Twitter account.  He later says Kenshi will be released on XBL 7-6-11.  Some say it's MS's fault while I believe NRS submitted it late, but only MS and NRS know for sure.  Common sense tells me that if it was MS's fault they would have updated immediately after finding out about the issue.  

-On 7-6-11Kenshi is released on XBL sometime in the am

I think the major highlight is that it took 2 months to fix the netcode on XBL with only 2 official responses from NRS and WB.  That had most gamers pissed off enough to get really ticked at the smaller things like the Kostume Pack bug and the Kenshi delay.  Currently, I'm very happy with the game.  I didn't buy the Kostume Pack or that would have pissed me off I'm sure.  Some people were over the top mad while others sugar coated everything...typical forum crap.

[/quote]As I said above in that ridiculously long post, common sense tells me that if the Kenshi delay was MS's fault because they forgot or goofed, they would have put it on Live immediately after it was brought to their attention.

No point arguing with Ruthless, hes like a broken record.
