well your problem is that you playing mortal Kombat. I prefer Tekken over most other fighting games. I mean, I ;like the spectacle of the fight as much as the next guy but its not fighting if your just flying around shooting bombs and lasers and stuff.
Personally I never minded spamming too much. I mean, its literally the easiest thing to get around in a game. As soon as you find a weakness, they're screwed.
I like matches where you both pull off amazing moves and comobo's, but in an appropriate non spammy way. Basically I like it when you have an actual match using all the character you chose has to offer.
Tekken is a great game. I play Tekken 6 online and its a lot easier to counter the spammers, if you know your characters.
I can't remember, but someone put a video on here recently I think Snooty or Snoopy or some guy like that Spoony video. And he was talking about how the Xbox 360 controller wasn't made for Mortal Kombat and I slightly have to agree.
I mean compare a PS controller over a Xbox controller. The D Pad for the Xbox is jammed together, you have to roll the D Pad.
Where as the PS controller has always had a seperate D Pad for the arrows.
Sure, in MK they are counters to the spammers. But when I'm playing on a controller that sometimes feels very unresponsive at times, sometimes it feels a little cheap when someone is purposely throwing a projectile.
They are being rewarded for fighting cheaply.
And a person who knows the character, who knows how to use the character, put time into a character is mocked or humilated because they aren't doing everything in their power to win.
Yes, the online character I use has a projectile attack. But for the most part Baraka is a an upclose, combat play character. He doesn't teleport, he doesn't have an ultimate projectile attack. I'm not a distance player.
And I do have counters for the cheapos.
As said:
-If someone is jumping around up and down. I use Barak's two hit combo kick to counter it.
-If someone is throwing projectiles, I tend to go the cheapo way and choose someone like Kitana to throw fans and fly above them.
-If someone is teleporting I sweep them.
I always seem to be able to win one round by countering their cheap moves. But they tend to really pound out because they don't want to loose. Going even more and more cheap so that way I'm jammed.
In Tekken 6, my stragety use to be wait till the person comes to me. Lure them. Make them come to me.
In MK I can't really do that when the very counter for the Lure is a projectile. But I am not a going to pound in your skull kind of guy who comes charging in either, that's how you make mistakes and those are usually the people who follow the Lure.
Now, I have come up with a new technique which is be as cheap as you are. And I get no satisafication out of that. Its not a good fight. Its not a I see combos I haven't seen before, a fatality I haven't seen before, making a friend with someone because of how well they know their character.
I think I met only one person, whom I was generally having fun with. We danced with our characters, played with the block. Glitched the characters stances. He showed me some Babalities, baby Barak is a adorable btw, and some fatalities. We fought each other like normal people, not throwing projectiles.
One person out of the twenty or something matches I played before.
