Quitting on a ranked match

[Хела]

If the guy just Alt+F4 the game during a Fatality secuence, is it normal that everything is lost? Ranked points, rewards & daily ranked counter?

People are pretty upset with the lack of effort given to multiplayer so probably so. I have no idea though I just wanted to get the pitchforks out.

Stop doing fatalities then, maybe thanks to ragequitting going rampant people will stop wasting our time online with fatalities we've seen hundreds of times by now.

I THINK it counts the win once the round is won or when you reach the fatality screen, but I'm not 100% sure.

I think mosl of those people don't alt+f4 at falality screen but press menu and quit normally to move on. In case of that you will get points and they will lose points but the system needs a couple of minutes after the match to update the stats.

(Alt+f4 in theory counts as a loss also)

At this point KL is so one-sided and stupid that most people probably don't even want to try that 1% win odds wifi match. It's so broken and stupid. Pro tip: use the default skins and don't let NRS pulll you into their ♥♥♥♥♥♥ F2P grind garbage. Focus only on the fight and forget completely about all of the F2P grinding BS that has nothing to do with "git gud". Honestly. ToT will screw with your ability to fight human players. Abandon single player modes if you want to have any chance of beating people. Forget skins and gear. If you want to win, forget skins and gear. Use the defaults and focus only on 1v1 gameplay.

Lol no. Just L2P and you can play both with success (positive KL and plenty of goodies if you call that success), it doesn't take a rocket scientist to learn a character.

That not advice. You're basically saying "get good" which only gifted players can do. Why even bother posting when you have nothing useful to say? Why don't you start telling people they can fly like birds by flapping their arms, too?

You again? don't play MK, just get professional help.

I don't think the menu is accessible during the Fatality scene.

Also don't be shocked if the game just abruptly closed due to poor connection. MK servers have sucked so bad.

Ranked should not have any skins etc as rewards. Myself included, a lot of people want the skins and stuff KL offers, but the matches are very one-sided a lot of the time. If you want a REAL competitive mode, you don't put anything but a final trophy for performance at the end. NRS, WB and everyone else trying to inject F2P greed into a competitive mode is asking for trouble, and trouble we got.

Within the first 30 seconds I know I've lost. I don't have the strength to hang around for hopeless matches. I try to stick around long enough to forfeit, but sometimes, particularly when it's a red-benchmark wifi Scorpion, I just leave. They are the ones making this horrible. But NRS is giving them the means to sabotage it all.

If you can tolerate the KL farce, go for it, but there is no point in complaining about any problems with the game because they will never be resolved. NRS and WB don't care at all. They are relying on addictive F2P tactics to keep you hooked and toxic.

What you see is what you get. A joke of a "competitive" game crammed with F2P BS and a majority player base of trolls and cheaters. It's up to you if that's tolerable or not. I'm only here to kill myself.

There's no game mechanic or business model that can appease your irrational anger.

Anyone can 'git gud'. Having talent for a thing just makes it easier to learn the thing, not make it impossible for anyone else. Gitting gud is more a mentality than an actual measurement of skill. It involves not blaming the game for losing.
For example, you claim that 'KL is so one-sided'. It isn't. The league itself doesn't care, and it's not purposely matching you up with people better than you. Chances are you're just losing because other people trained/practiced more. Gitting gud is taking that loss, watching the replay, and try to figure out WHEN (it's usually a lot earlier than the fatality screen) and HOW you lost. Then you can work on how to NOT get into that situation again.

Early on in the game, I was struggling a lot against Kung Lao players. His teleport just seemed too damn strong. Whenever they did it, I blocked low and they did the overhead, or I blocked high and they did the grab. Every time.
I didn't complain about Kung Lao's teleport or moaned that the character needed nerfs. I went into the lab and eventually figured out that with good timing, Cassie (my secondary) can jab him out of the startup as he comes out of the ground and convert into a combo. From that point on, the Kung Lao matchup was no longer a problem for me. I Got Gud.

P.S: You just gotta flap your arms hard enough, man. You're just not doing it right. :P

Node is addicted to being a victim. He would rather continue to be angry rather than risk failing by trying to get better at the game.

If people can't handle a 30 second fatality they shouldn't play mortal kombat. It is what made the game popular after all. I personally don't do them online but if someone does it to me I'm not gonna quit like a little bytch

[SolidusPrime]

If they alt+F4 you get a win and they get a loss. It's happened to me enough times now lol. I fatality all day because I enjoy the salt more than anything else.

If you really want to watch their character die do a brutality.

I mean this as a kindness; You should look up EMDR Therapy if you haven't already. It has helped countless people suffering from PTSD.
(I work in psychiatry and I'm not being smart or messing with you. It's an honest recommendation.)
