If I new killer instinct was to emerge, what would you like to see new in killer instinct or what would you like to see change from the previous killer instinct? Whether it be visuals characters or etc. wat would yu personally like to see happen.
What I would like to see change in killer instinct is the developing team I would like to see double helix come back and pick up the killer killer instinct project. My reason being is because the first season was more of a technical fighting game they use frame advantages all out risks and it was a lot more smoother and cleaner play from the game in now the first season did have some of these bugs like saber wolf was too fast you couldnāt break sadiraās Air combos and there was some other broken things, but since the game Was knew that was the first set of bucks so double helix never had the chance to actually change what they wanted to change they couldnāt shape KI into the vision that they wanted to. When season two of killer instinct Was announced I was excited I played killer instinct a lot I have a lot of time played on ki. Also killer instinct was one of the first fighting games that I actually jumped into heavy so I was looking forward to it. Then I hear that double helix gets bought by Amazon and the new people to take over the project is iron galaxy I looked at the track record of iron galaxy and I thought that There was still hope for killer Instinct because iron galaxy worked on street fighter Third Strike, but I was wrong. When TJ Combo got revealed I was excited but I seen The animations of his attacks looked wonky also his fighting stance was too much āup rightā but despite all of that I still gave KI A chance. When season two was fully released my impression was that these characters look wonky the way that they fought looked wonky. Despite the fact that the characters look at wonky I still excepted the game because I still like the first season also I enjoy some of the second season characters like cinder and Shadow Jago. When the second season had its first patch notes they nerved a lot of the first season characters not because saber wolf was too fast not because Jago was Plus on most of his attacks and it was not because fulgore was OP. The reason that they Nerf the first season is because they had to sale the second season. The first season is better than the second season the first season characters are easier to pick up their all of their attacks have synergy their presentation is more appealing and they are more technical. The second season was The introduction to shenanigans. What shenanigans means in killer instinct is basically a āone trick ponyā type of character where they only use one move. In killer instinct you will find people using one move to beat you one move that everything that they do hinges awful but when you use a character that only uses shenanigans and you fight someone whoās better than you and know in killer instinct you will find people using one move to beat you one move that everything that they do hinges offer but when you use a character that only uses shenanigans and you fight someone Who knows how to get past your shenanigans then what are you left with. Let me explain. Jago very very technical fighter versus shadow Jago shenanigan character. Now Jago is one of the most balanced characters in the game he has fireballs that are very useful across screen rush down kick And a DP. When it comes to fighting games would I expect there to be while Iām fighting is pressures in defense of tools basically a well offense and I well defense. Jago has both her that he has plus frame attacks he can either go over head to start a combo or go low to start a combo. But shadow Jago on the other hand is a shenanigan fighter. Shadow Jago has a teleport kick That will either hit you from behind or in front he can also make this move faster shutter Jago also has fast fireballs and he can shoot them multiple times plus shoot two at a time. Also he has a fast slide kick that hits low. Shadow Jago can manage to do a multi hitting uppercut that you can surge to hit twice. Now on paper it sounds like shadow Jago is a OP character. But in fact heās just a shenanigan character there are ways to get out of shadow Jagoās pressure there are ways to punish his shenanigans so what is he left with he has nothing concrete or solid enough that takes Priority when he fight but size the universal jump in heavy kick the only plus frames that he seems to do is +2 in that his crouching light punch what are you going to do with it he cannot keep his opponent pressured all you have to do Is crouching block and jump backwards and you may be able to get out of his pressure. But what if he Anti-Airs you or catches you in a jungle? The answer is nothing The only way he can convert that to max damage is to do obvious combo strings that are easy to break into even if you donāt break it he still doesnāt do a lot of damage. Shadow Jago tries to beat his opponents into breaking his combos that donāt do damage anyway he canāt manage to keep his opponents blocking and his defense is trash heās fighting style has no synergy meaning that his specials does not perform well with other moves that he has. So what are you left to do. All you can do is try to overwhelm your opponent but The tools that you use our not safe So youāre left to chance. Letās break down damage for second characters can perform hi damage combos while some perform low damage combos. I believe that his balance is necessary if One character has low combo opening percentage then he deserves a lot of damage and if a character has high combo opening percentage then he deserves low damage thatās how you balance the game but you will find characters, Especially the ones that Iron galaxy made to have high combo opening percentage with high damage which ultimately labels that character OP like for instants riptor rash and gargos. Now there are other characters that are this way but they are the best examples. They were made his way to sell the game it wasnāt made this way for the game to be balanced but to have broke OP characters to sell their seasons because to be honest I never cared for the third season or kind of the second season besides cinder And shadow Jago. But on this new phone journey of making the characters this way they also nerffed The first season so that it will force you to buy the other seasons you will notice how much of a big change from the first season to the third season of your characters history like saber wolf. Saber Wulf was a character who Had a fast movement and he would CrossView on wake up iron galaxy team this to be a problem in nerfed saber wolf not once not twice not even three times but four times they nerfed this character almost to the point where heās not even playable for character who fights close range itās funny that you slow him down killer instinct is known to have the biggest neutral positioning, meaning One character all the way to the left one character all the way to the right. So it leaves sable wolf to have a longer distance to travel to reach his opponent and they slowed him down also he has no defense of tools unless he has shadow or instinct and you can almost fully kill an opponent without him hitting you before he gets a shadow bar so that means that the only opportunity that saber wolf Has of getting out of your combo is to either break it , which flips the characters out to a 50-50 and puts space between them which does not help saber wolf because he has to close distance and every combo breaker creates distance Or to get his shadow to do shadow eclipse which is the only move that will stop them from pressuring him on but that also means that your health is almost gone.
But basically what I am trying to elaborate is I want to see double helix return to make this a better fighting game than iron galaxy because I am galaxy ruined killer instinct I can go on all day about how they Ron killer instinct like I wanted to see more character customizations more alternate outfits but we didnāt get any of this also the characters have shenanigans which doubles the game but we shouldāve expected this since they made dive kick. Also they will claim the first season to be flawed then strip them of what makes the character them then give it to the next season while at the same time making that next season better than the previous season to force you to buy the DLC which ultimately makes the game unbalanced which leads us to work I am talking about now.
