Shadow Lords Mode

Its probably for the same reason Titanfall 2’s beta is only on consoles, because PC players datamine EVERYTHING and spoil games.

Guess it was smart of them, after the whole SFV datamining fiasco.

That’s not even a criticism, but I don’t know why people refuse to acknowledge this reality…

We just released a new Guardian. Check the Packs.

Maaaan I want to play! Wonder if its the Owl, or the beholder thing, maybe the demonic ape guy or the wolf skull. D:

It’s not any of those.

Is very smart to play it safe when it comes to a new content on PC, the datamining ruins a lot of stuff in terms of the game (like spoilers or whatever you want to call it). Looks like Shadow Lords will get even better huh?

There is a lot more stuff in the release version of Shadow Lords, including tuning as a result of you guys playing and feedback in this thread.

Perfect Snake is BS. My friend played shadow lords, got the perfect snake and somehow did 105% damage to an enemy as thunder.

Didn’t even know 105% was possible.

I’ll give it a check, thank you.
As a note, everytime I choose Riptor as the first fighter of the team, the game crashes to dashboard right before the match…if Riptor is second or third everything works fine.

Boss Shago had a couple of different exploits you could use. Sadira could heavy widow’s bite him without getting punished more than like one out of every 50 times, Jago could frame trap DP him for free forever, etc. Even excessively cheap AI’s like Shago are still fundamentally AI’s, and once you find an effective loop you can exploit it more or less forever. Shago was really cheap, but he wasn’t adaptable at all, so once you figured out an effective loop it became trivial to beat him.

I’d give you whatever access I have if I could bro

I did a run on normal and found myself having to keep using scrolls to heal my characters cuz sum of the challenges are pretty hard, luckily i made it to gargos and beat him so now i have astral plane :smiling_face:
Ill try again later today on challenging mode and tell u guys how it was, i wont spoil anything if i get anything unique for beating him tho

That’s the spirit, by doing this, you give the players a chance to see the stuff by themselves, leaving the Astral Plane aside (because at this point pretty much everyone knows that Shadow Lords must be completed to unlock the stage), keep the stuff you see as a secret. :wink:

I think everyone wants a code, LOL.

How many people on this forum have Shadow Lords? I’m dying to play it, but it seems like everyone around me is playing it.

Well, I guess in the meantime I could try getting the Fallout 4 endings. I’ve had the game for months and never finished it…

I don’t have it either. sad face.

I feel like when i ll have SL i will already know everything about it.

That’s why I’m avoiding all things SL until it drops I want explore everything on my own.

Something I’d like to see in the release version is for the dialogue before every fight to be more varied. For example, if cinder is fighting against glacious, maybe have some story related sentence that would only be relevant between cinder and glacious. Even if they’re mimics, they could still throw in a few words relating to the original character. Kind of like the character intros in MKX where the fighters recognize each other and have specific words for each other. I noticed the mode already has some of this but I would like to see more of it with more story related dialogue. Eespecially because the mimics seemed to repeat a lot of the things so it’d be nice to have more variety/less repetitive dialogue. Also, I’m not a big fan of aria, but I understand she was a Boss character for season 2 and is pretty important to the story so I would have liked for her to have a bigger role in this mode. Although I guess that’s reserved for something down the line in the future.
