Hi again.
I too am interested in whatever tips you can give on the settings you
mention and on the MK menus in general. Unfortunately because of the way
that the menus are shown, in particular the color contrast my wife cannot
read them well at all so my knowledge of the MK menus is real real
limited. Fortunately this seems to be limited to the MK menus as she can
read most other menus for the PS3 just fine.
Game on.

Hey Tom,
I totally agree. in fact, don't just beat the AI, but beat the thing on
the hardest setting possible in the game, and do it consistently. Also a
very important thing is, learn everything about your particular character
of choice. For example my character is scorpion, and I'm always looking
to learn new things for him. Learn their main strengths and weaknesses.
their ranges. what's safe on block and what isn't, what are their combos.
what can you string together and what moves will do the most massive
amount of damage? Practice mode is real useful for this type of thing.
there's a setting that'll force the CPU opponent to autoblock, and
another setting that'll give you unlimited meter. 2 extremely useful
options that should be used to train and get better at the game. if the
AI can block it, so can anyone else. and best thing of all you can do is,
go online. a lot. against totally random people. after a few beatings,
you'll start noticing improvements. hahaha

Hey Yohandy.
Oh I understand it is hard to explain. Pretty much what I tell people
looking to get into mainstream games is of course get good at fighting
the AI first before you worry too much about going online and going up
against people or you may get discouraged and give up. I am frankly
still at that stage myself but that is largely because I only have a
limited amount of hours I am willing/able to put into learning these
things and as you rightly point out this is very important. This is why
I refer to myself as more or less a casual mainstream gamer. I really
enjoy it, in fact I enjoy my mainstream games as much as or more than
most of my accessible ones, but do not pretend to be very good at it
most of the time. Yeah I can just imagine how that match went for you
lol. As you can no doubt tell from when this message is being sent I am
up at a barbaric hour getting ready to leave for work but once my
schedule lets up after this next couple weeks I will hopefully really be
able to sit down and devote more time to my newer titles Rock Band and
MK 9.
Game on.

Tom,
That's actually rather hard to explain. Remember, you're fighting a
human being, not a machine. And us humans aren't too predictable a lot
of the time, especially if the person's a really good player. Lots of
times it comes down to gut instinct and reaction time. It's not like
fighting CPU where you're like ok they're weak to this attack, so I'll
exploit it. many times experience plays a huge roll as well, and how
many hours an individual is willing to sink into the game. A good
example is when I fought some guy online with like 2500 wins, 200
losses. on ranked! guess how that match ended for me? and no I'm not
exaggerating either. I had a sighted person here check that out.
hahahaha
