If they continue to redesign characters like they did with more or less the whole roster in MK9 and make even designs like Stryker no longer hilarious looking compared with the Ninja and Outworld Warriors, I am damn sure the Netherrealm Studios team is able to develope updated versions of MK4 characters like Fujin,Jarek, Tanya and Kai and make them nice replacements or completely unique new characters.
+...we all know what it really means if someone in MK dies.

They're kinda all zombies owned by Quan Chi now. Unless you want a whole zombie cast to replace old Zombie Liu Kang, I'm having trouble seeing how they're going to make it work.
Heck, I'm still trying to work how Frost will work with her little cameos in 9, with Sub-Zero no longer being around.

Post by: "Bad News" Hoffmann on June 01, 2014, 09:32:54 pm
MKDA and MKD got Gamecube versions as well, but if they did it how Boon thought, the new MK will really be for the new consoles only, this is from 2012:
"Boon told CVG that his Chicago studio has not yet begun work on the successor to the highly acclaimed 2011 Mortal Kombat reboot, and suggested that work on the game is earmarked for next generation systems.
"Just philosophically, I don't think we could take the approach of doing the same thing but adding new characters in our next Mortal Kombat game," he said.
"We definitely want to do something new with it, we feel we have to introduce something into the mix."
But Boon believes that there is less opportunity to innovate if a sequel is published on the same console; An indication that the next Mortal Kombat game will arrive on hardware as yet revealed by Microsoft and Sony.
"If you introduce another edition of your game on the same console, you cannot provide a radically different experience," Boon said.
"I'm sure, if we were to do a new Mortal Kombat game on next generation systems, I think we would be able to provide dramatically different experiences.""

All I know is, WB games won't pressure NRS to get the game done quick. They'll do the same they did with MK 2011. They're gonna give the Dev Team as much time as possible.
That's what made MK 2011 work and become successful, as for any guesses... I think a couple of the MK4 and onward chars are going to be salvaged... somewhat.

i hope they put in a one time playable prologue, starting off from the last game where you fight as someone for the souls of the deceased and win, then bring everyone back, justifying the cast from the previous game being playable. after you win it and the game is on your hard drive, you don't have to do it anymore
that, or shinnok fucking wrecks shit down there and everyone's souls are freed from quan chi, deus(diablos) ex machina style, plus new characters
or, yeah mk4 and up characters

Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X
Post by: Saikoro on June 02, 2014, 01:41:32 am
At this point, I think it would be wise to either expand on the mythologies introduced by classic characters, like the whole correlation/relation of Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Smoke, Cyrax and Sektor (E.G. Lin Kuei). Maybe expand on the whole background of the White Lotus Society (Kung Lao and Liu Kang). Or perhaps, Kintaro's/Goro's/Sheeva's and Motaro's race (I say his because they are rival races; that art as Motaro and his extermination squad running in MK3's intro was amazing). Or perhaps more to do with the Black Dragon and their culture, because Kabal is fucking badass and Kano is equally as badass. I loved his outfit in part 3.
Reason I bring out fleshing out already established characters is because, lets be honest here, MK4's characters sucked and were completely uninspired. Rieko?? Shinnok?? Tanya?? Really!? I look at MK4 as an excuse to bring the franchise into 3D. Deadly Alliance was amazing, even if a little uninspired in a few respects. I'd chime a little more in MK:DA's new character entries and backstories, but my knowledge is stronger with the first three titles only.

Exactly. Johnny Cage died after MK2 and came back by Trilogy, death has about as much consequence in MK as it does in the Dragonball series.

Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X
Post by: Cazaki on June 02, 2014, 01:51:10 am
I'm mad that I barely remember MK9's story. I thought Raiden reversed all the deaths at the end but I guess I'm mistaken because I remember jack shit about how that went down.
EDIT: I think I'm thinking about how Raiden canonically retconned Armageddon at the beginning.
Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X
Post by: Roman55 on June 02, 2014, 01:55:54 am
I always assumed that MK9 was always meant to be just some alternate continuity where everything goes south, and that whatever game after it is back in the original timeline.
Course, it would be amusing to see Raiden try to re-retcon MK9 only to make things far worse.
Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X

Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X
Post by: SNT on June 02, 2014, 02:26:05 am
The whole thing's probably fresher in my mind than most (fucking Australia), so here's what I remember:
Quan Chi is working for Shinnok, and the whole thing was a master plan to play Earth and Outworld against each other so they're both weak when the Netherworld attacks. All the Earthrealm warriors bar Liu, Sonya and Cage are dead and possessed by Quan Chi. Sub Zero's soul for some reason still looks like a robot. Liu Kang and Shang Tsung are dead dead and belong to nobody. Sindel's a Quan Chi puppet, Shao Kahn himself is either dead dead or is a Quan Chi puppet. Outworld is presumably being run by Mileena in Kahn's absence. No one knows what's happened to Edenia, maybe Rain takes control.
So basically it's Raiden, Sonya and Cage versus Hell and everyone in it, with whoever's still alive in Outworld fighting for who knows who.
Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X
Post by: Nero D. on June 02, 2014, 02:34:20 am
liu kang died
Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X
Post by: Cazaki on June 02, 2014, 02:58:41 am
Thanks SNT. Yeah I forgot about the whole Netherrealm thing.
So the idea is that these new characters will more than likely team up with Raiden and the Z-Fighters against Shinnok and his army. Of course there will probably be new NEW characters thrown into the mix that will be key components of the netherrealm side and those will be the characters I'm looking most forward to. I'm also thinking most of the MK4 characters will get a MASSIVE re-design too and become practically unrecognizable.
As long as the actual combat system is also altered then we should be good to go. MK9 was a good game as a whole but I hated the metagame quite honestly. Playing it competitively just wasn't fun, and I know that the MK system isn't known for freeform combat but I think it needs to look into it.

If a KI character is included, I hope its Orchid, we could use a pretty woman in the game besides Smoke.
I would put my money on Fulgore over Orchid when it comes to KI representative just cause....
-He's among the more popular KI characters. When you think KI characters you're usually thinking Orchid or Fulgore. -He's the closest to KI's poster boy(Despite getting shafted and released as DLC for KI Season 1) -MK has a particular interesting habit of making fake rumors into reality(Ermac, Skarlet). I mention this because before MK9's launch, there was a particularly popular fake rumor that had Fulgore as the 360 exclusive character for MK9. -Fulgore always seemed to be one of the characters with the most over the top fatalities, which fits perfectly for MK.
All right, so not the best argument, but I just see Fulgore over any other character for KI representative.

Wouldn't rule out Jago, he is the main character; series pretty much revolves around he, Fulgore, and Orchid (even if the latter two is more popular). I do agree with the notion that they'd choose Fulgore over Orchid, don't see NRS or MS choosing a female as the guest character.
If a KI character is included, I hope its Orchid, we could use a pretty woman in the game besides Smoke.
NRS would wind up making her so looking pretty isn't happening, too "stuck in their way" of doing things. I actually hope the girls don't look overly beautiful. Decapitating pretty females would feel wrong.

I suppose hoping for Master Chief with an Energy Sword to match PlayStation's Kratos would be too much again?
Eh, it'd be 343's Chief anyways.
I hope if they do go with guest characters they get something as odd and unexpected as Freddy was. Really enjoyed playing as Krueger.

Worst music choice ever. I hate it.
Seems visual damage during a fight is back, if the fight in the teaser trailer is showing how the game itself is, I bet its MK9 + Injustice like Environment stuff. Sub Zero's face there looks a lot like Raiden in MK9 or?

It also looks like we can parry stuff? Or at least counter some attacks even after getting hit, although it's kinda hard to know how much of the trailer is meant to represent how the game will really play like.
I'm actually expecting for the block button to be replaced by a parry button or something else and let us block by holding back already.

Jeez, what's boon's obsession with killing sub-zero for fuck sake. I knew it was gonna happen as soon as I saw the stare down.
Music was atrocious too But more importantly I sincerely hope they fix the gameplay so it's not as broken as MK9.
Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X (Last update on 02.06.14)
Post by: Zemilia on June 02, 2014, 05:03:54 pm
So how many times has Scorpion killed Sub Zero?
Anyway, just to put my 2 cent, whole trailer is pretty decent (CGI trailer that I hope is in-game graphics), since it shows some stuff that might be in the game (The X-ray attack, probably the fighting system, and the Interactive weapons/stages that's lifted from 4, but it reminds me too much of Deception). Would like to see the gameplay trailer when E3 comes.. maybe.
Also, I'll admit.. music doesn't fit both the trailer and the fight whatsoever.

I'm willing to bet the reason why that song is even in the trailer is due to Warner Bros telling them to use it considering it's from an artist under their label.

Blocking with an actual button instead of holding back is much better in my opinion.
The trailer was awesome, I didn't mind the music. Scorpion and Sub-Zero look much better than they do in MK9. I hope to god that you can make your own character in this game.

Fueled by next-gen technology, Mortal Kombat X combines unparalleled, cinematic presentation with all new gameplay to deliver the most brutal Kombat experience ever. For the first time ever, Mortal Kombat X gives players the ability to choose from multiple variations of each character impacting both strategy and fighting style. And with a new fully-connected gameplay experience, players are launched into a persistent online contest where every fight matters in a global battle for supremacy.
Although not surprising in the least, this concerns me. Hopefully they don't go too far and compromises gameplay as a result. Multiple versions of characters sounds nice.

Blocking with a button means that crossups aren't possible, and that's pretty much a fundamental aspect of fighting games.
Anyway, the trailer was cool but it doesn't show me anything I don't think, I have no idea which is gameplay and which isn't. I noticed a few moves Scorpion does that aren't moves in MK9 like that flash kick looking move, but once again who knows what is gameplay and what's not. I already knew most people weren't going to like the music but since I listen to hip hop anyway it's not that big a deal to me. I liked the beat *shrugs*

Maybe...and that could be something pretty cool...every character can use different parts of the environment? Like Sub Zero being able to free something and use it to throw at the opponent and Scorpion being able to set something in flames, powerhouses like Jax being able to pick up heavy things while the more agile characters can use the environment for specific air moves /juggles and what not.
Basically a much bigger variation than in Injustice
Wonder why the made the game a cross generation title instead of being for the new platforms only as they previously wanted.

Coz there is still a big market for 360 and PS3, I for one am glad its coming to last gen
Lol at all those guys saying they passing on this just coz its cross gen, I mean is that so bad?
Liking the new character designs, I just hope that isn't the box art though
And sweet they bringing back Scorpion's spear to the face fatality from MK4
'Spear to the Face' wasn't in MK4... That was Deadly Alliance.
Anyway, I like what I see. The trailer was good (I don't know why everyone on the internet was bitching about the music choice. I mean, it wasn't that bad I thought).
They'll be showing this game off at E3 next week and hopefully there will be some more info coming down the road.

Because PS3 and 360 are still pretty popular. And just like when PS3 and 360 were released, vanilla Xbox and PS2 still had a lot of juice to have extracted from MS and Sony.
So, PS3 and 360 have at least 3 or 4 more years to have titles released on them. Not to mention PS4 and XBO are still in their test phases. *waits for PS4 slim* :V

Didn't Sub-Zero get turned into a fucking robot in the last game? Why the hell is he human again? Also, I might be standing alone here, but I like Scorpion's new costume design, it looks like the Netherrealm Studios logo outfit. As far as roster predictions, I'm going to say... everyone who didn't die in MK9, and pretty much everyone from MK4-Deception. Also I think Liu Kang is alive and they're bringing back Zombie Liu Kang (technically not a zombie, but Raiden left him really disfigured in the last game)

Traditionalist in me speaking, but I'm not feeling the environmental stuff.
As for the music... take Mortal Kombat and what it tries to present (Chinese Kung-fu or something). Take what today's hip-hop and what it's reputation is amongst the general public (unrefined music that speaks about drinking, bitches, drugs, etc). Giving the music a chance and not just quickly reacting, it doesn't sound as bad as I thought (and I don't have an issue with it being in the game in general). Still don't like it being the lead music piece for revealing a new Mortal Kombat; music sounds like borderline club-material and Wiz Khalifa isn't an imposingly edgy lyricist.
Making something out of nothing maybe, hopefully it's a one time thing and not what they're trying to go for thematically; it'd ruin the atmosphere of MK.

I don't care about the music, if the game is good, then it's good. If the game is shit, it's shit. Music (especially trailer music, which is just that. "trailer" music) I doubt it's even gonna be in the game.

Ho, ho! Color me impressed!
Looks like MK's really going back to its roots. Back when everything was all dark and gritty, unlike the previous 2 games which felt sleepy, depressing and boring as shit.
But they need to take out that x-ray part, shit's gross lol
It makes total sense that they'd use such music in this trailer.
Mortal Kombat has never quite been embraced by the hardcore fighting game community, and seeing as the majority of it consists of people of the more..uhh..urban persuasion, why the fuck not?
Thanks to that track we now have millions of people around the world going YEAH DAWG THATS MY SHIT. MORTAL KOMBAT X FOR EVO BRAH!!

Anyway, if there's one thing about MK9 that did disappoint, lack of new characters (understandable considering what they went for). Hopefully there's a healthy amount. MK4 characters would be cool too, a a better game would do them justice.

It seems as if some elements of Injustice will be at play here or at least I gather that much. it's pretty much looking like a mash up between MK9 and Injustice from the tweets Ed Boon himself tweeted. he said there'd be interactive weapons. So the tree branch Subby smacked Scorpion with might be a gameplay element unique to every character. We'll see what Mr.Boon has for us at E3..one thing is for sure...this will be one of my top tier games on my list when I get a PS4

From the youtube comments to even here so much hate on the music. Honestly if you listen to the lyrics is fits the trailer rather well and the drop right before the real action of the trailer also fits perfect. Sure it's not the Mortal Kombat that we're all used to but I doubt that's what Ed Boon was going for in the first place. I guess people are just too used to the usual outlandish or metal tracks that come with an MK game. That's fine, everyone has their own opinions and I can respect that but I for one think the music is perfectly fine. Will we see it in the actual game? I highly doubt it, maybe in the ending credits to the story mode some where but that's it.
As for characters, I really just hope that they don't make Kenshi a fucking zoning character again. I hated his play style in MK 9 so I hardly touched him.

Idk.. As good as the music is (and honestly, it's actually growing in me rather quick), I just thought it doesn't fit the mood of what this trailer is (which is pretty much Sub Zero and Scorpion fighting to the death.. Again).
Though for how it's used, it is quite nice for how they use it (the "buildup" being the intro part, "Fight!" being when the music kicks in, and the part where Scorpion got kick to a tree is where the vocals came in).
...Actually, looking back at the trailer, I noticed that Sub Zero's mask broke off after Scorpion slammed him to the ground. As obvious as that is, something tells me that we're going to see some kind of "armor damage" in-game (in akin to.. I guess Soul Calibur). However, it may just be me over-speculating things.

Human Sektor is playable in MK9... As an Alt. Costume for Sektor (Could be obtained by either beating arcade mode, or a section of Story mode where you have to play as Sektor.. I think).

I love how Scorpion looks there and how the graphic is ultra realistic, however that is very huge distant between combatants in the beginning of the round, dunno if the run is auto executed as the round starts, otherwise it would take a long time to get into fighting distance if both players are careful or none take initiative to close the distance, or probably get into prolonged projectiles battle.

MK9 did that. As a character loses health and gets hit mid-battle, armor and clothing would be damaged and torn. Then chunks of flesh and eyeballs would be lost and bones would be exposed.

They could just put in a dash like most 3D fighters by either double tapping then holding the stick forward or a triple tap. Just depends on how Boon wants it to be.

yeah sure about the dash/ run, what I meant who would run wild into the opponent by the start of the round like in the demo where both players ran into each other and then clashed, so I guess if that was actual gameplay, probably the run was mandatory, like auto executed for both parties at the beginning of the round, where we can choose to clash with what moves to get a first hit.

That's a possibility, but I think it'll be more universal than that.
In the trailer, while Scorpion had the sword at his hip, he never made use of it, but extensively abused joint-snapping counters, the X-Ray attack and the neck-snapping OTG harpoon at the end. At the same time, Sub Zero avoided the bone breaking and focused on stage interactions, swinging from the trees, pulling weapons from the environment. I'm tipping that's indicative of a Counter/Bonebreaker version, and a Stage Interactor/Weapon User version, or something along those lines.

yeah.. more universal..probably just different weapons with different range+ damage + weapon specific moves on each costumes, I don't think they do each costume into independent characters, probably just different in damage vs speed vs ease in comboability when using that weapons like Soul Edge probably that.

I anticipate something like Trilogy (only more varied). Would also be interested in NRS bringing back on the fly hand-combat/weapon switching, but I don't think they'd pull it off with success. Still worth a shot.

At first I was like "....nah" but based in the stage interaction systems they built for Injustice, a higher level if stage interaction is likely. Might as well leverage the new tech and gameplay they developed for their latest entry in the franchise. Just makes good sense.

First things first: Quan Chi should not have all those souls from Earthrealm warriors. Simply put, They are from Earthrealm, and thus Shao Kahn had no domain over them, so he couldn't use them on his bargain with Quan Chi. Either that was just Quan Chi playing mind games with Raiden, or one big ass-pull.
Either way, I think the story of this new game will involve Shinnok starting his invasion, then Raiden gets desperate and goes on a quest to revive all fallen warriors, then Liu Kang steps in and decides to take over Raiden's place (which would fit with his arcade mode ending), then things get rough.

They've done that with most of their games without counting the "everybody vs everybody" ones that brought back the entire roster up to that point (Basically Trilogy and Armageddon).
The thing is that this kind of stuff no longer happens in fighting games, much less in games where the devs try to create a more legit competitive fighting game (MK9 is probably the most legit fighting game in the entire franchise and the only one a serious FG tournament would hold while the others are more "for fun", even back when they were released). Ditching most of your cast in a FG sequel is something more of the 90's than nowadays.

I wish x-ray moves against opponent would cripple them temporarily with a cooldown bar, probably changing their stance or some other disadvantage (probably opening a window for a "finish him" move attempt during the cooldown period after the oppenent is crippled/ affected by a successfully performed x-ray) although attempting a finished move on crippled opponent still come with a risk since it can be avoided and punished, but it would at least giving a chance to turn the tide instantly, something like GG destroy move. just my own thought, so the finish him move can be more useful.

Since they have more freedoms with Next-Gen, I think the X-Bone will probably get one too. Either a KI character, or the protagonist from the new Deadrising game. Eh maybe even Master Chief, but for some reason I really doubt it. I was also thinking about the possibility of the Injustice cast making an appearance via some type of roster import.

MKX is a game about alternative MK universes clashing and fighting each other. Explains the alternative versions for characters and why Sub Zero and Scorpion are alive. The X stands for cross, as in crossing through different universes like in Injustice. You heard it first here!

Raiden brings fighters from different universes isn't bad. It's atleast better than killing Lui Kang and make him return as a zombie.

I don't understand why Boon hates Drahmin so much, he's a ton more interesting than the other throw-away DA/Deception characters. :( Hopefully we get Nitara though. There needs to be more vampire pirates in video games.

I feel like maybe some of the characters have potential though. Only exceptions are the throw away characters like meat and mokap. Guys like dhairu (or however you spell it) darius, hsu hao even mavado are pretty bland. Maybe if they were givin a redesign and new moves that'll make them more interesting would help. I like drahmin though lol he's a funny character and he has potential too, just needs a more serious moveset cuz I dont think throwing a ball of flies at someone hurts a lot lmao. Nobody has given their opinion on molach though. The boss of deadly alliance... eh idk what to say about him I felt he was made so they could introduce some new monster boss or some shit

Boon just mentioned that MKX is still running on their highly customized Unreal 3 engine, they started using that back in 2007 when they developed Mortal Kombat vs DC and he mentioned it again that they will show two completely new Mk characters on e3

Shujinko needs some original special moves, if they give him that, them he will be a great character, he's design is actually very good, I always saw him as one of these "done alot of bad things, now doing good things to make it up" characters who just jumps in the battle and beats up everyone

That idea sounds cool, and if they did that it would open the door to bring him in when he's still young. (And not that boring old man design, I'm sorry I know some people liked it, but I thought it was fucking awful)

I think some characters should re-appear in the game but not in the story. That way they are able to be a part of the game but don't mess with the story. Also I'm hoping Onaga never makes it into another MK, I don't like him that much, I would rather them make a new villain entirely than bring him back

She isn't used as much in-game, but the trailers and promo art always seem to favour her. Even in Armageddon, while they favoured all the new characters returning in their trailers, the opening cinematic shows a lot more of Mileena than many others.

Kitana was the female representative of MKvDC (along with Sonya), I based it off that. Also, the good side often gets more press than the evil counterpart.
I believe it's the whole "mouth" thing. I won't deny that Mileena's the more memorable of the two.
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
Frequenting one of "those websites" I saw a advertising gif of Mileena performing oral lmao, more than I can say for sister.
Anyway the two females having such a strong influence in the MK franchise, neither will be left out. Helps that they're practically identical.

I think Scorpion and Sub-Zero have replaced Liu Kang as MK's 'shoto'. They turned Liu into a fucking zombie once, and he was killed in the most uneventful way in Mortal Kombat (2011). He's a total geek; they don't care about him anymore.

Bleh at the new characters, exactly why they shouldn't mindlessly replace the classics. It's like I was watching two different games.
What in bloody hell is a Disney looking bug girl and an reject pirate prisoner with a kid (a kid, really) doing in the same game as with trained-to-kill Chinese kung-fu ninjas (I know that's wrong but Mortal Kombat).
At least the gameplay looked like Mortal Kombat (whether that's a good or bad thing remains to be seen).
Edit: Giving a second look, the big guy design isn't bad (still has nothing on the likes of Baraka, Kabal, & Kano) but it's completely ruined by a kid who has no business being in MK.

Eh... I'm trying to go in with an open mind, but Jesus, I'm really not feeling those two new characters. I wonder what it'll look like when you perform a fatality on that little girl character. I don't expect them to blatantly kill a fucking kid in the game, but I wonder how it'll work on that big dude since he's a bigger character like Moloch from Deadly Alliance. (Maybe special animations for each character?) Eh, I guess we'll find out later.
The fatalities that they teased at the end looked 100x more gorier than the MK9 fatalities which really excites me. (Maybe I'm a sick boy... o_o)
Hey just out of curiosity (since I'm on my phone at the moment) did anybody notice any little background easter eggs in those two stages they showcased in that trailer?

This is why I'm excited about the new characters. For one you don't know if they are REPLACING the classics anyway, for all we know, the cast from the previous game as well as some returning characters will all be present. Two, they breathe new life into the MK series, you should want characters that will bring you elements that MK doesn't generally has, adds variety.
I'm a fan of everything I saw in that trailer

Seriously I don't think they're bad designs, they just don't look like "Kombatants" (well the two I have an issue with anyway). If this is more a sign of NRS going in a different thematic direction and they pull it off, more power to them. It's all first impression, but just one that gave me a mixed reaction.
Replacing the kid with a demon-gremlin thing (like Gen-an Shiranui) (http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20080704190023/snk/images/3/3c/Genan-sstenka.png) would've made a better impression imo.

Eh... looks cooler than that bug lady. (Injustice Raven with a palette change, lol sorry but I had to XD)

Another thing is that they seem to be bringing back weapons for everyone but in a different way. Almost every character shown has something that can be used as a weapon, like the big guy uses the little guy, bug lady uses wings, scorp uses sword, etc. so that might be what they were talking about when they said different variations of characters

There'd be about a 3-in-4 chance it'd get intercepted by customs and the recipient would get fined. Once they hear a game is banned most retailers won't even bother trying to ship it, just refund the money. If it got through the game would work fine, though.

It was, but MK9 ended up being the last straw, and not long after that the whole system got revamped to actually have an adults-only rating. When the MK9 Complete Edition released, we got that a few months later.
We might have an adults-only games rating, but it's still softer than most countries'; all that stuff at the end of the trailer is going to get MKX in trouble here.

That bug lady looks pretty cool. I like the voice.
The huge dude would have been awesome if the stupid ass kid wasn't there. I don't really understand how the fatalities are going to go. But I have the idea their obviously probably going to just let the kid stand to the side but that would be kind of stupid.

I like what I see, it seems different, a lot of people hate brutal changes, but those ones look interesting enough, about the gameplay, well it looks like the have preserved MK9 style, but faster and added stage interaction... so far, looks promising!

Honestly, even the X-Rays look a hell lot more brutal, I simply cannot wait to see more because it's funny at the same time. Scorpion throwing a Fireball of sorts into Sub's chest to reveal his heart and then give him the slice n' dice? I actually laughed to how bizarre it is!
I'd like to see more jokes though, I still can't get over Cooking with Scorpion.

This makes me wonder how large the roster will be. Seeing as how there are already 5 characters confirmed, 3 being new, the roster would have to be fairly large to fit majority of the veteran fighters.
Or maybe just DLC.

That trailer is AWESOME! We got here at least THREE new characters! YES! Just look: That ladybug with yellow skin, that perfect duo of big guy and small girl that MAYBE is not even a kid, and an Ancient Ogre faker!
That duo works perfectly, the big guy slams her gi... errmmmm, HIS girl into the ladybug, and the girl actually USES it! He throws the girl at the ladybug, so she can harass her! He can even swing that girl around for a slash fest! And, man, i LOVE that floor slam from the big guy in his X-Ray!

Around 18 minute mark they show the game.
I'm VERY excited. Capcom better step their game up
Yeah Cassie Cage is Johnny and Sonya's daughter. The game goes up to 25 years past MK9's story making this the SF3 of MK. I could see them selling returning cast members that didn't make it as DLC. In fact, I'm expecting it
EDIT: Looking at that select screen I see no Raiden. I have a feeling that Fujin is going to be in this

So let's break it down.
Enhanced moves, Breakers and X-Rays all back.
Scorpion Ninjutsu - adds attacks with the dual swords Hellfire - adds Hell Ball, Demon Fire and Flame Aura Inferno - allows him to summon a Demonic Minion (projectile divekick, back projectile) Universals - Leg Crab, Harpoon, Decoy Punch, new Psycho Crusher X-Ray
D'vorah Swarm Queen - adds Vortex Swarm (ranged trap attack) and Wasp Grenade (fireball) Brood Mother - adds Krawler and Bug Blast ??? Universals - air throw, some Chun Li Millia Rage multi stab.
The game goes up to 25 years past MK9's story making this the SF3 of MK.
God damn it, I hate when games do this. Every time this happens my main is the one that gets the shaft.

'tis why you pick up several characters haha. I'm thinking that characters that get replaced will have another character in place that will be the equivalent of who they once were, like how Cassie Cage is going a have a mix of both Johnny and Sonya's fighting style.
also, if this variating moveset thing is in place, there's a chance that one moveset could favor Johnny and she becomes more like a clone of him, and vice versa.

Well, the good news is that the game happens in the span of 25 years, it doesn't just skip straight to 25 years later so there's a high chance that most of the cast will come back. I mean, badass older Cage would be fantastic, I wouldn't mind.

Well, Sonya and Cage were the only two who survived the whole onslaught. Makes sense they'd get together.
Timeskip huh? Now the shift makes sense. At least they said something now and didn't wait too long (although the Cassie Cage reveal would've gave it away). Still not feeling the new characters but at least there's reason behind their appearence.
Also, future Outworld looks good.

Post by: rednavi -RETIRED on June 11, 2014, 04:29:50 pm
It's right there in the stream. Ed Boon says that the game takes place DURING the 25 years after MK9's ending. You play through the entire span of time, not just skip straight to 25 years later. This is why I believe that many character won't be old enough to not to be able to come back, because you'll have characters from different eras in the same game.

This makes me wonder if we will ever see character story specific finishing moves.
Like Scorpion and Sub Zero having third finishers which are fatalities where they interact with each other (like in the fight intros) a short time before that specific finishing move. "Finally I Have My Revenge, Lin Kuei!" "You will not escape the Netherrealm again, Spectre!" some silly lines like that followed by fatalities they do only on that one character. This could make a fatality possible where Ferra gets killed together with Torr by a rival of those two

I was actually hoping Bi Han (hear me out) - Noob Saibot seemed to share the same fate as Scorpion in Deadly Alliance, with the Oni throwing him into the Soulnado where he was (somewhat) cleansed. But yeah, the "I tire of maintaining our innocence" line seems to throw that away, unless it's Bi Han talking about the Lin Kuei in general, or himself and his brother. But yeah, most likely it's a new Sub Zero, which kinda sucks IMO.

Cassie looks like a combination of characters. I may actually main her. Love her win quote "From the page of Cage"
Kotal Kahn looks like a grapple type character
Selecting the different version of the character has some costume changes. For instance Hellfire Scorpion has his arms slightly on fire, Dual Katana has him with the katanas on his back, Icebreaker Sub Zero has the white mask, Cryomancer Sub Zero has the iced up arms, etc
Cassie Cage variations Brawler - Adds Air Power Slam and Takedown Hollywood - Air Akimbo and Nut Kracker Spec Ops - Adds Air Assault and the American Way

Slightly changing the costume for each different mode sounds really neat, small details like those are very simple but bring lots of attention to detail and effectively increase the amount of "playable" characters, props to NRS.
It seems like this game is MK's answer to SFIII (It even has a similar mechanic to the Super Art selection, except this affects special moves)

I like what I've seen from Cassie so far, I'm glad they didn't completely overly-sexualize her design (no matter what my boner says). I think the reason people (like DatKofGuy) don't find Cassie's face "appealing", is because she kind of has Johnny's facial features when you really look closely.

Its not that I don't find it appealing, its just that in the screenshots she looked a lot more feminine to me. But then again she is Sonya's daughter...

Lol I predicted that for Cassie her variations would make her more like Johnny/Sonya. And I hear that the char select screen MK comes up with are always fakes so don't look into them. I think Cassie's face is good, every woman in every game doesn't need to be some sort of fanservice goddess.
Kotal Khan is a character unlike anything we've seen from MK. Seems like the Sun God variation uses command grabs to build up power and he uses a move to boost his damage output to RIDICULOUS levels. Looked like he did a jump kick and it did like 20% health. Quite interesting.

Cassie's fatality looks pretty much the "least" gruesome of them, since the body is not mutilated, but I'll give points for using the chewing gum as a dark humorous finish.

Ign "Kotal Kahn is only known as the descendant of Shao Kahn. His backstory will be revealed in Mortal Kombat X."
Hmmm... IGN? I dunno... for actual game story content I'm not sure I trust them as a source. But lets go with that for now. Seems plausible enough

Boon's apparently said this game will have the most new characters in any Mortal Kombat game (current record is Deadly Alliance with 11), so if the current select screen is any judge we can expect another 10 returning characters at most, in addition to Scorpion and Sub Zero. Start praying for your mains.

Let's see...
(http://i.imgur.com/sNO3KCc.jpg)
Maybe Mileena (upper second-to-last?), Reptile and Sheeva could be back for the villains, they're the ones that don't age or whatever. Maybe Sektor and/or Cyrax as well (perhaps the silhouette on the lower-left or the weird one below D'Vorah?). Lower right strikes me as Quan Chi.
As for the good guys, maybe Ermac (far-left silhouette, hopefully they turned him good or do so in this storyline, because I think he has the potential to be the next Liu Kang calibre warrior), Fujin and/or Raiden (though I'm not seeing any Raiden-like silhouette in the select screen), Johnny Cage (the silhouettes below the big dude and second-from-lower-left look like him a bit), and... yeah that's where I'll stop guessing. :P Maybe Kai's in there somewhere. From there on, if they don't wanna go past MK4, they're gonna have to bring a couple of good guys back.

That Rorschach silhouette under kotal khan is seriously throwing me off. Maybe he's in as a guest character? Maybe it's a tease? He would actually fit nicely seeing as how he was violent and over the top brutal in watchmen. Pretty hard to try and make guesses as to who the silhouettes represent since people most likely are gonna get reskins. The one under D'vorah is hard as hell to make out but I don't really think it resembles one of the cyborgs. Looks more like a female like it could be jade or kitana. But I could be wrong.

Yeah you're right, that one does look female, I just focused on the thin hairs potentially being outer cables or something. But I am almost 100% certain about Quan Chi and Ermac. I mean, just look at them.

also i think i see ermac in one of those silhouettes and maybe johnny cage

Idk he may have the same last name as shao khan, but he seems to be some kind of sun god. Maybe he's an elder god? Shit idk. I feel like with fujin they'll go with his alt costume look from Armageddon with the long white hair and cape. Looks a lot cooler and more "elder godly" to me. This got me thinkin though; this'll be the first mortal kombat with key characters kids being in. Won't it be awkward as fuck to do a fatality on your parent/kid lmfao.

I gotta admit it though, I'm really afraid of them bringing in so many new characters to the point where it doesn't even feel like an MK game anymore.

--; how will this not feel like a MK game? The game plays JUST like Mortal Kombat 9. And as we saw from Cassie, characters who might not be present will be present in spirit because moves will be passed down. Not to mention that we don't know for certain how many returning characters we will actually get.
I think this will end up more like SF4 rather than SF3 though at the end of the day because I have a feeling that only the VERY IRRELEVANT characters won't show up, like Sheeva or something. This is also a next gen title, so who knows if they'll up the ante on the amount of characters we'll receive.

I really don't understand this way of thinking, If you are afraid of changes and just want to play with the same characters from many years ago, what is the point of waiting for a new sequel? better keep playing the old games if you don't want cast changes. Personally I will be glad if they bring an almost totally new cast of characters just like street fighter, fatal fury and power instinct did it with their new generation titles, sure I will miss Mileena and Cage but I will not be complaining for that because NRS is adding very interesting characters this time.

Devorah makes me think DC/Injustice, Ferra/torr makes me think killer Instinct, Kotal Kahn makes me think Ogre/Tekken, Cassie is the Mel Masters of Mortal Kombat being the daughter of Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade.
I'm not saying it won't feel like Mortal Kombat but at the same time I hope they don't change the formula too much. it's like having a perfect drawing only to draw over it just to add more. Also I'm not downing the game at all it looks badass and I'll probably end up messing around with ferra/Torr. torr seems like he'd be an oni like Moloch or drahmin.

The DC characters from injustice looked more like NRS creations than DC characters and Cassie being Mel just because is related to other characters? that's a weird point of view, Mel is a male, is a around 8 to 12 years old and never has been playable, really I don't see how Cassie would be the Mel from mortal Kombat. I don't see how is bad they have influence from other successful fighting games when it comes to characters design(Still I don't know why do you feel that I don´t remember a character remotely similar to Ferra/Torr in killer Instinct, and Kothan well also looks a little bit like shao kahn), to be honest since the first 3D MK I feel the characters design from the series where kinda bad, in MK9 they improved a lot and it seems that they are just getting better for this game .

Torr seems like something you'd see in Killer Instinct is all. you rarely see any regular creatures like that except for boss characters or sub-bosses. He's just an off-the wall design for a character in MK. unorthodox.

They never said if she's a child or not, everyone's assuming that she's a child. She could be an adult for all we know. It's definitely possible.

to me Torr seems like Sub-Boss/Boss material with how big he is. as a regular fighter he's unorthodox for the same reason you've said. the cast is primarily human/humanoid with a four armed Shokan boss or a Centaur Sub-Boss. Torr himself might be some kind of Oni like Moloch who is being controlled by Ferra.
I'm not saying he doesn't fit entirely I'm just saying a design like him is unorthodox for a Mortal Kombat character. I said Killer Instinct because of creature designs being non-human. you have Riptor, Glacius, Eyedol,

Ed Boon answering a lot of common questions for an interview with TRMK (http://www.trmk.org/features/interview_mortal_kombat_x_ed_boon_e3_2014/).
Quote
TRMK: What can you tell us about the storyline at this point?
Ed Boon: The timeline for Mortal Kombat itself skews, it does a Back to the Future thing. This story is not just this linear continuation of the story. There is a "When last we left off" part after Mortal Kombat (2011). Then there are periods that are very close those events at five years after. Then ten years, fifteen years and then twenty five years. It covers the span of time, and it's not told linearly where it jumps forward and backwards in time. It's told in a very interesting perspective. To me one of the more interesting parts of it is when you are in the future and you see these characters that you have known aged, maturing and stuff like that.
Quote
TRMK: Are you targeting development on next generation consoles or are you mostly concerned about keeping cross generational compatibility?
Ed Boon: NetherRealm is only doing the PS4 and Xbox One Versions. We may be doing the PC version as well, but the consoles are the priority. While we may be involved in the solution we will not be doing the implementation of the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions.
Quote
TRMK: Fans expect this game to follow the storyline of MK4 and beyond, but it looks like you are taking the story in another direction. Will fans see some familiar faces from the series they haven’t seen yet in MK9?
Ed Boon: You will definitely see a Mortal Kombat 4 character, I believe that's the first time I've said that. You will also see some of the later game's fighters. You'll also see cameo's in the story mode. Some really fun ones.
Quote
TRMK: Will you have to unlock Finishing Moves in a Krypt again like the last game? Like the Babalities for instance.
Ed Boon: Well the Fatalities won't. There will be a new "ality" that we can't talk about, but I'll tell you when we stop the recording, and there is a chance that those will require you to unlock them.

I've been thinking on who would be the final boss as it must be someone making a surprise return the people won't be expecting.
I'm throwing a wild guess and say it'll might be Dark Khan from MKvsDC with a different origin story/name with a revamped design and he's almost obscure enough that most people may not see it coming.
Just my guess.

Well to be honest, that Centaur could've just been a Centaur. Let's not forget there's an entire race of those mother fuckers. But, I suppose the same can be said for the one In Raiden's vision, so we really don't know for sure whether or not he's alive. (I don't think they've mentioned his name at all yet.)

http://mortalkombat.wikia.com/wiki/Motaro
Quote
Ultimately, as with nearly every character of the franchise, Motaro is killed at the end of Armageddon. How or by whom is not known. In the alternate timeline, he assumes much of the same role as he did before, leading the extermination squads of Shao Kahn into Earthrealm. However, this time, he is killed by Raiden, who foresaw that Motaro would kill Johnny Cage. Mileena later brings Motaro's body back to Shao Kahn. Motaro is then replaced in command by Sindel.

They... kinda got lazy there, in a nutshell. If you remember that "kreate-your-fatality" system they had going on in Armageddon, they made Motaro 2-legged so that they wouldn't have to endure a headache by creating special animations for him with 4 legs, both receiving and performing every single fatality move. Making him a biped was just easier.

I know... it's fucking mind-boggling at this point. "Next"-gen just doesn't keep up with the PC like the previous consoles did (I'm truly sorry if I sound like an elitist), so why they're putting it at a side as a "maybe" just confuses me.

Eh, a ruler doesn't always have to dress like a rich douchebag or try hard tough guy. Boon probably knows that and if ermac is ruler of outworld or even edenia, then boon was going for something original on how an emperor looks. Ermac may not have the emperor attire shao Kahn does, but he looks intimidating non the less. Your right about one thing though, he does resemble scarecrow a little

So Boon says on Polygon that Mortal Kombat X will have a roster at least as big as the last Mortal Kombat. That's at least four more characters than the current build's select screen implies. Now, new characters aren't necessarily capped at 12, but that's still gotta mean a slightly better chance of getting your favourite returning character, right?

That story turned out just to be an urban legend (http://www.donotlink.com/lsh) (yeah I know Polygon, but it's relevant). Daniel was already gone from Midway when he did the Bloodstorm ad. The real reason he left was due to a lawsuit over royalties. Carlos never got sacked from the company, but he didn't appear in MK3 as a penalty due to his involvement with Tattoo Assassins.

The new characters they've shown so far with the exception of Cassie & K. Kahn are very mmo-ish. D'Vorah seems like a druid, and That big dude who's name escapes me at the moment looks like an ogre-ish tank type of character. Also the stages they've shown in the trailers look like something out of an rpg. I'm in no way hating on any of those aspects, that's just what they remind of.

remember that every fighter in Mortal Kombat fights to kill. The good guys even kill if they need to. Akuma fights to the death as well. his brutality knows no limits when fighting to the death. Just because he doesn't look to fight just anyone doesn't mean he wouldn't split a few heads open to find that one who could possibly take him down.
from what I've heard through the mythos he doesn't even fight anyone unless they are willing to put their all into the fight and are 100% healthy. He fought Gen but realized he was sick and dying so he refused the fight or something like that.

When did that ever happen?
Gouken , he killed him, he got better ( martial artist staple) Goutetsu ryu in ryu final, pretty much any canon fight has him trying to kill the opponent, its the whole thing.
It would only be a series of fights where he wouldnt hold back if he could, he is not the weirdest character to have in a mk, he even had his whole fatality thing with shungokusatsu

Its always murder. The guy that goes "destruction" "Death..." obsessed with finding someone to fight to the death with him and trying to push his pseudo kid into becoming like him so he can get some worthy kills out of it is not a brave honoured figure, he is a murderer with high standarts. He would be Hannibal going " Oh this person reads bad dc comics, I cant eat this trash!"
He finishes his fights with lethal force, he is less of a hero figure than subzero, who at least was doing it to avenge his brother.

exactly. with someone like Scorpion or Shao Kahn challenging him who's to say some head wouldn't roll? He usually doesn't kill anyone who isn't willing to fight with everything they have which includes evil powers. After all the Satsui no Hado literally means "The Killing Intent" and Shun Goku Satsu means "Instant Hell Murder" .
The only reason the Misogi doesn't appear lethal is the fact that Street Fighter isn't as gritty as Mortal Kombat or Killer Instinct. Otherwise the blow should split anyone in half. So when you see P.O.T.S Shin Gouki slice M.Bison the his intro you should be seeing Bison slump down and slide in half. Akuma is evil but he has his reasons for sparing people just like any MK character but get in his way and you're dead. He's a much darker character than more than half of the Street fighter roster and it'd be amazing to see just how he kills his enemies during the SGS.

..Fulgore it will be.
And an assassins creed character for the ps4 and ps3 version is stupid.
Sweeth Tooth from Twisted Metal /Playstation Allstars is my pick.
ps: Since there is nothing new to talk about...have a look at this awesome D'Vorah FAN ARRRRRRT

Damn, that is some clean ass fan art.
Back on the subject of Fulgore though. I don't think it would be very smart to have any KI characters appear as guests in MKX, considering how badly the new KI title was received.

Really? I thought that KI did very well. I mean, they're doing a 2nd season of the game, so I assume that the game must of done well enough in order to get that green light.
Anyway, I like to do some snooping around and try to catch some of the rumors that go around for games that I like, and since this is one of them... well, why not. Here's some that caught my eye while I looked around on MKO (Mortal Kombat Online). Remember, these are rumors so take them for what they're worth:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
...All from a group who got to visit the studio in Chicago... Liu Kang DOES have a character design for MKX. Not implemented in the game as of yet.
Kotal Kahn has no relation to Shao Kahn.
MKX demo will be coming out for fans like they did with MK9.
Tanya is believed to be in the game. An X-Ray that was tested resembled her MK4 Fatality of her twisting the neck with her thighs.
Planned to have 14 brand new characters, 8 returning from MK9 & then roughly 8 from MK4 on. Planning on a roster of 30.
The storyline does go 25 years forward but a large, nice portion is devoted to the MK4 storyline (right after MK9)
Kotal Kahn has something to do with Shinnok. This person didn't fully understand.
No Sheeva.
Gameplay is like MK9 but a little tighter & easier to use. D'Vorah was more difficult to play than the others.
Scorpion is used as the "tester" for all character moves.
There's a reptile-like man creature. They weren't sure if it was Reptile or Chameleon or a new character. Was on computer screen getting worked on.

Sounds legit to me, but I guess cause I want it all to be true. If I had to guess the 8 mk4 characters: -shinnok -jarek -kai -fujin -tanya -reiko -quan chi -??? Only obvious ones I'm going with are fujin and shinnok. Not sure if this counts mk gold but eh. I can't think of another mk4 character for the last spot.

And Quan Chi would return from MK9 actually.
Bet Fujin, Tanya, Reiko, Kai from MK4
Frost will return and be super sexy I bet, maybe Havik from MKD...beside Bo Rai Cho and Nitara all other newer characters were so shitty that they please won't return.

Reminds me of that unused "Fujin" announcer voice sample in MK9. They probably wanted to add him while developing MK9 but ultimately ended up discarding him to keep the story as it was, saving him for a sequel.

Sub-Zero with tits is a good character now? There are better post-MK4 characters .. like Kobra. Mavado? There needs to be some Black Dragon reps, unless that concept has been trashed.
I think almost all of the women chained up in Shao Kahn's stage have a chance of appearing.

Kenji... idk about him. He was DLC and didn't really take part in the storyline. I mean yeah, it would be cool to see him, but he was only technically part of mk9 when you think about it.

OK, it's Kenshi, people. Get the name right.
As for me... Well, Quan Chi and Shinnok were in MK9 (one was playable and the other had a cameo), so let's put them in. If they're looking for 8 from MK4 on, then here's my idea:
MK4: Tanya, Reiko and Jarek Deadly Alliance: Kenshi and Mavado Deception: Kira
My reasoning: -The spoilers I posted mentioned Tanya. -Kenshi was in MK9, so why not at this point continue his storyline since Shang Tsung is dead? -Jarek, Kira and Mavado could play a role with the Black Dragon now that Kano is gone (for the time being. Who knows if he's in the roster). Plus, one of them could make a good rival for Cassie Cage. :)
One last thing: So glad to hear the possibility of Kotal Kahn not being related to Shao Kahn. I remember (and those who are big MK fans should as well) during the early days of Deadly Alliance that there was a character teased with the name 'Kublai Khan' That character became Hsu Hao.

my guess that its the original sub zero Son !
I mean it make more sense if you tought about it, Sub Zero had a son that no one know about , and is now grown up and out for revange against the same guy who killed his father

Its better not add speculations who come from images or random reasons other than story. It would be better to add Raiden, Shinnok and Quan Chi, because they are the only ones everyone is sure to see due to the events of MK9. I was going to risk saying Tanya, since some guy said he saw her at the game, but this is also random.

Sub-Zero did return, didn't he? And even as a human (or, at least, thats what we think) Liu Kang also returned as a zombie later in the MK events after dying. So, don't think death will limit those guys' presence in other games.

that's not a random slash, from what I can see, the fatalities change depending on the character style you choose... he picked Scorpion with the sword, so the last hit-move of the fatality is different, instead of throwing the head, he just cut his face
maybe I'm wrong but I do believe that's why it's so similar to the other fatality

Because Armageddon kinda stagnated the franchise. MK9 introduced a new engine with a nostalgia-fest to get the fans back after some missteps with the last few games. Now that they're back, they can now do what they originally wanted with MK now re-established.

I know he's said it would have the most new characters in a game ever (Deadly Alliance has 10 or 11), but I don't remember him saying "half".
Also worth saying that Boon's admitted the E3 char select screen is a sham (http://www.mortalkombatonline.com/content/forum/showmessage.cds?id=151412).

D'Vorah says some fun stuff during battles and in the intros
Ferra/Torr Intro:
-D'Vorah: "You offend this one Ferra!" -Ferra: "What LadyBug do about that?" -D'Vorah: "Exterminate!"
He was at least not as outplaced as Link, Spawn, Ezio and Cole MacGrath and even Kratos.
Actually, Ezio fits pretty well in SCV. He was, after all an assassin from more or less the same time as the events of the game. Link has the excuse of being teleported dimentionally. But the other ones are outplaced as well.

I dunno, I found Darth Vader a large improvement for Soul Calibur. Anyone who didn't want to Force Choke half the roster sometimes is lying.
I'm all for Freddy. Guest characters are fun, if nonsensical. Though that's part of the fun, if you ask me. Heck, I'd still find it amusing to see Xbox evening out PS3's Kratos addition last game with Master Chief, even if he's completely out of place. Too bad Stryker's already got the grenade shoved in the chest fatality covered.

I've heard rumors that The Predator could be the guest character... I don't know for sure.
To me, a guest character wouldn't be a bad idea, but the potential backlash (especially after the PS3 version of MK9 getting a bonus guest character in Kratos) might be too great to take a chance.

I wondered as well, if they will bring some of the rumor characters to life, after all, since Ermac and Skarlet appeared, why not the other ones. Here are them, for those who don't remember:
- Nimbus Terrafaux - African-American kickboxer, rumored in the original MK. Not a bad concept in my opinion. - Hornbuckle - Paletteswap of Liu Kang from the Pit II stage. If Blaze (who fights him in the stage) has come to canon, why not him? - Emerald - Mileena-ish character, rumored from MK2. Probably, it would come to be just another green ninja with an entirely new moveset. - Red Robin - Red ninja, supposedly hidden in Goro's Lair at MK2. - Stan Looth - Shao Kahn's janitor, obviously a joke made by magazines, but, who knows... - Aquilluxborg "Aqua" Hydroxybot - The most complete rumor, that included a profile and an ending. A robotized ninja with demonic and hydric powers. - Pedro - April-fools joke: rumored to be a mexican palette-swap of Stryker in UMK3 who used flaming farts as attacks. - Belokk - Apparently, was to be added to MKGold, but was scrapped. There are screenshots of the character, and he was meant to be secretly playable, but that wasn't true.
I'd give my votes to Hornbuckle and Aqua, since Horn could end up like Blaze, becoming an actual character, and Aqua was probably the most complete rumor, and Boon could make use of him.

No. Ermac originated from fan mythology as well. It was said that if Scorpion was overused in the Sega version, a screen with "Error Macro" would appear and Scorpion's outfit would be colored red. Also, "Ermac" (or maybe "Error Macro", I'm not sure) was found in the game alongside the characters' names, which increased the speculations about a secret character. The color glitch was proven to not exist, and Boon said that what was found alongside the characters' names was a macro wrote for catching code errors.

As far as I'm concerned guest characters as a concept devalues both brands involved. The only guest character I've liked was Gon in Tekken 3, and that was mostly because I was a kid and didn't know he was a guest character.

I think guest characters are fine as long as they fit with the general theme and aesthetic of the game they are appearing in. Link and Spawn were cool in Soul Calibur 2, for example. Heihachi, Vader, Yoda, and Ezio (to a lesser extent) were all kinds of what the fuck, however.

Post by: Macaulyn97 on July 08, 2014, 06:55:17 pm
Actually, Spawn was one of the guys that didn't fit in Soul Calibur. He is from a time far from those events. Ezio was the one who fit most in the game. People are speculatin Predator to be in MKX, and its really someone I wouldn't mind seeing.

heihachi was perfect in sc because he is actually in the story line/universe, if only about 5 or 6 centuries later (see sc yoshimitsu)

The Yoshimitsus from Soul Calibur are ancestors to the Yoshimitsu in Tekken. But Heihachi is from the Tekken timeline, so, perhaps someone from the Mishima family in that time. By the way, lets stop being off-topic now, this is the MKX thread.

What if this Kotal Kahn dude is Belokk with a new name and slight re-design. (ie. Skarlet)
Belokk fan rendition: (based off of MK's leaked in-game screenshots) (http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130916102419/mk_/images/a/a3/Belokk.png) Kotal Kahn: (https://videogamesalexander.files.wordpress.com/2014/06/kotal-kahn.jpg) (http://www.lightninggamingnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/War-God-Kotal-Kahn-stars-in-this-Mortal-Kombat-X-Image-1024x640.jpg)

Kotal Kahn's design is based on Aztec theology (this has been brought up before, also when comparing Ancient Ogre from Tekken to Kotal Kahn), his headdress is fashioned to represent Quetzalcoatl. Saying he's a throwback to some spiky headed character they designed years ago is a huge stretch. Even the two weapons he uses, Tecpatl and Macuahuitl are Aztec.

Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X (Last update on 10.06.14)
Post by: Reck on July 09, 2014, 04:57:46 am
I wouldn't completely out rule it. Belokk's getup (with the exception of the spikes) closely resembles K. Kahn's. It's not as far fetched as one may think. Hell, Ermac and Skarlet became characters because of palette errors from past MK games. I'm not saying it's 100% canon, it's just a theory of mine.
Oh, and also forgot to mention that they both have weird colored skin.

Actually, if you read Spawn comics you would know there is a character known as Medieval Spawn, which is what the Soul Calibur character was based on evident by that huge boot and axe he uses. So in a way he fits in far better than Heihachi and Star Wars ever did.
And if we were to be really technical... Ezio would be a 100 years to old to be in the storyline at that time

he fits as much as the other two characters mentioned fit
if they dont fit, he doesnt fit, hell link fits in this game for that matter
also, cyborgs
He fits much more than any other character mentioned. Think about it: a Predator has the excuse of coming from another world, kills in gory ways, is a hunter and seek strong enemies, worked against humans from Earth(-realm). Tell my why he doesn't fit?

Just the fact that Link isn't really a violent character, it was quite odd (and awesome) to see him in Soul Calibur, but then again he was in Smash so it's whatever.
@Lord M
Time periods don't determine who does and doesn't fit when it comes to a game like Soul Calibur
back on topic, I'm still hoping Fujin will make the cut though so Raiden won't have to be the leader of Earthrealm the whole game.

What do you mean by "a game like Soul Calibur"? And what about MK9?
Soul Calibur is a weapons based fighter and Link fit the mold in that game. Yes, they had to do something with Heihachi, but they made it work,
MK9 (and MK in general) is about violence. So, in a way, you want characters that best fit that mold. That's how you can explain Kratos and Freddy Kreuger in that game.

pre-noob bi han and sareena had a fling, gave birth to tanya, tanya was kidnapped by the brotherhood of shadow when she was young and bi han died, turned into an assassin, sent to edenia as a double agent by shinnok, to fuck shit up*
or sareena may have raised tanya herself from birth as a member of the brotherhood to go to edenia as a double agent, to fuck shit up*
they are all associated with the brotherhood of shadow, they may play an important role since shinnok is most likely the big bad of this one, and fujin and the new forces of light may combat them
*i made this scenario up, sareena is a good guy and tanya is not related to either as far as i know, but since i thought of it make it happen boon, it's an interesting scenario

These three have one thing in common: they're Quan Chi's bitches. Sareena was one of the three sexy demon ladies who fought for him in MKMythologies, Noob has been revived by him, Tanya betrayed Edenia and sided with Quan Chi and Shinnok. Scorpion probably isn't there because, well, its Scorpion.

I'm aware of Sareena's existence in the MK canon, but I never noticed she had the fucking Oblivion mark tatted on her shoulder/arm. Tanya wouldn't be a surprise since she was inspired by Boon's sister, he seems to be very fond of the character.

Raiden is a welcomed return. His fatality seems a little... weird? For lack of a better term. Kotal Kahn's x-ray looks sick. Raiden's x-ray reminds me of Subby's MK9 x-ray, minus the ice effects.

Yeah, but at least he destroys an organ punching, instead of crushing.

Most of the bad guys (Reptile included) survived because they where whipping boys. In fact, the only bad guys to die were Noob, Shang Tsung, Sindel and Shao Kahn.
Speaking of Raiden: I liked what I see. The 'Thunder Lord' setup has traps that remind me of Mu setups in Blazblue, which can be a scary thing if done right. I like the X-Ray (complete with shocking) as well. Kotal Kahn, on the other hand, was the spotlight stealer for me. Remember, there really wasn't that much gameplay for him at E3, so to see more of what he can do, like his X-Ray (Aztec Knee FTW!), was something that was worth waiting for.
Now comes Comic-Con. What do they have in store there.

Hey, i heard Raiden and Kotal Kahn is from the same... "quarters". It does mean, they are both gods, of certain aspect! Raiden is god of storms and thunder. Kotal kahn is god of sun and blood.
So, Raiden and Kotal Kahn are somewhat brothers? If not that, so instead, they are colleagues, for sure.

Lol, that's one of the funniest things I've read all day.
As much as agree that his post was "bullshit" it's not a bad idea. MK has only ever shown four elder gods in the serie's entirety. Raiden, Fujin, & Taven and Daegon's parents. (I don't remember their names) so it would be nice to see them debut a new one.
Also, just as a side note. In MK9 you can see Daegon fighting someone on the pit stage, but he's wearing his MKA armor. In MKA, he doesn't get the armor until after Armageddon actually begins, so that's either a big continuity fuck up on N'S part, or they're preluding to something.

I hope they don't come back. And if they do, I hope they do something else other than getting beaten up, they revealed themselves so unimportant, that they could easily die in the cutscenes of MKX before the story actually begin. This was the only thing I disliked in the story mode, because they added some unnecessary fights, like Jax fighting Johnny because he said there was something between him and Sonya, like filler fights.

In his defense the Armageddon Raiden sent a very non-descriptive and kryptic message back in time expecting the younger Raiden to know exactly what the hell the visions were about. it's like being given one totally random piece of a puzzle at a time, and being expected to know exactly where it goes. It's just mental that the wise Raiden of the future didn't just say hey bro back in time just let the skull mask guy win and the Elder Gods will kick his ass. That and Cindel was massively OP at the time when she fought every good guy besides Raiden and Kang.

Also, why did he send the message waaaay back into Mk1, it would only work in Mk3, because if Outworld had won Mk1 and Mk2, it would be a a fair victory

Because the past could've been fixed then as well. If Scorpion didn't kill SubZ, the timeline would've been greatly altered.

Because then past Raiden would believe that message to be a threat instead of a warning, motivating him to put more trust in the forces of light on Kahn's defeat, leaving the timeline unchanged. He also would ignore the cracks on his amulet if that happened.

- MKX will introduce more new characters than any other MK game.
- There shall be DLC characters, and at least one will be a guest.
Also, this other says no DC characters will be guests: http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2014/07/15/guest-characters-coming-to-mortal-kombat-x.aspx?utm_content=bufferce39c&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer

No, did you not play the game or were you not paying attention? "He must win" refers to Shao Kahn, if he won then the Elder Gods would take action, as shown at the end of the game when Raiden gives up to him.

I guess Suave is referring to the fact that in MK vs DC, fatalities were heavily toned down to the point of the game being rated T for Teen, cause DC didn't like superman's head and spine being ripped off or something along those lines I think.

Guest characters itself is stupid but money is to be had so whatever. Unfortunate that one of MK's main selling points really limits what it can do. :P

Exactly. In injustice yeah anyone can be put in because fatalities weren't present. Mk tho? No. Of course a dc character isn't gonna be put in because ns is trying to be more and more violent with each game released after the other. Boon even stated himself that they couldn't really do much goriness in mk vs dcu because dc didn't like brutal shit happening to the heroes or something like that. Don't get me wrong I liked dcu, but the point I was trying to make is that a dc character in mkx as a guest character wasn't and isn't going to happen. Anyone who thought it was clearly never played mk vs dcu.

That doesnt make since since shao Kahn didn't technically win he didn't kill raiden the pendant was fixed after raiden beat his ass
Of course he won. He killed most of the Earthrealm's defenders and managed to enter without the Mortal Kombat with Raiden surrendering to him. Raiden did not defeat Shao Kahn, the Elder Gods did. They possessed Raiden and used him as an avatar.

Idk probably because in deadly alliance he was nothing but comic relief and he wasn't serious and he'd fart sometimes. Not to mention one of his moves involved fucking puking. I never cared for the way he played. I can respect that he's an all owerful outworld warrior and he trains warriors, but I don't like playing as him.

It's cause he's a disgusting slob. Doesn't help that his moves revolve more around being unhygenic instead of being Liu Kang's teacher (if MK was anime, they would have made him a perv on top of that). I'm sure NRS would give him better and more badass looking moves.
Outside of that he's not too bad; he's better than some of the other 3d-era characters who are just laughably boring as shit.

What the fuck
-Next gen power will really push the trademark brutality to new levels -24 fighters in roster (18 plus the six we know about, not mentioning Raiden) MY MISTAKE: Septillion pointed out it was probably just the E3 build they were playing, which makes sense considering Ed said around 30 fighters. My bad - Looks like Johnny and Sonya are major players in the story: story is described as 'about' them -The silhouettes could be characters blacked out -Sub Zero is not Bi Han: Noob is stressed to still be a separate character. However, its noted KL went Cyber. Seems likely to be a new Sub Zero. Will be answered in story mode -The idea behind multiple variations is for different incarnations of characters: seems like it will be older-and-younger variations for some -A lot of info about Cassie's styles, specials and fatality: nothing we dont know/havent seen -Kotal Kahn is described as a mystical Mayan warrior. -Stage fatalities confirmed, natural to MK -Details on Kotal and D'Vorah's moves -NRS want to 'seize the moment' -Details on Raiden's moves -EVO was a big deal for NRS, determined to be an EVO mainstay -Ed Boon says: there will be different variations of Johnny Cage, Sonya Blade and Liu Kang. "Is Liu Kang in?" "But of course". So looks like those three are confirmed. "Liu Kang, while not confirmed, is certainly in". Possibility of a mistranslation, either from Boon to German or a flaw in my German but it sounds fairly cut and dry, those three are in and playable -Boon refused to be drawn on any other characters. -DLC further confirmed, guest character further confirmed.
note: from a post at trmk, maybe not everything is true.

Wait, MK X's story mode is about Cage and Sonya? Oh lord... why do I get this feeling of this being Netherealm's version of that crap fest that was Soul Calibur V's story mode?
Some slight differences:
SOUL CALIBUR V - Shitty story mode, nearly nothing that happened between Soul Calibur IV and Soul Calibur V was told, boring plot - Absolutely retarded protagonists, a murderous crybaby and a psychotic idontwannafight character - Bad use of returning characters, with only a few of them in the story, only to play veeeeeeeeeeery small roles - Bad use of the other new characters without a backstory for most of them and having most of them copying older movesets - No good additional modes - Good online play - Good gameplay improvements from the last game - Uninteresting DLC
MORTAL KOMBAT X - Already has a lot of people crazy to know the plot, but still there are only speculations - If the protagonists are actually Sonya and Johnny, they were always excellent characters - Though the returning characters are few, they already seem to be important in the plot - The new characters all look very interesting and original - No information, but considering the games released before, we can expect something good - No information, but considering the games released before, we can expect something good - From what we know, the addition of the character variations and stage interactions seems good as well, it appears that a new "-ality" will be introduced - Considering the DLC from the last game, the spectations are high
So, from what I see, MKX seems pretty fine compared to SCV.

Well they're two completely different games seadragon. Same game genre but different as all hell. Your saying that you hope this games story won't end up like scv, but from looking at mk9, seems highly unlikely since mk9, pretty much all the mk games actually, not counting mk1-3, have used action cutscenes and not just stills, which was bland and boring as fuck, especially for a gorgeous game like scv. In mkx case, your looking at Johnny as patraklos and Sonya as Pyrrha? Nah I highly doubt that. They all have totally different personalities. Sonya is the complete opposite of Pyrrha, and cage... Eh him and patraklos might have some similarities like being prideful and gullible, but mkx story I doubt it'll be boring and similar to scv.

Probably because SCV , a direct sequel is more or less the worst game of its series, while MK9 on the other hand was the best MK game so far and MKX looks like it will be even better.

Did you actually played MK9 and SCV story modes? cause it looks that the buffoon is you. Theres no point of comparison between them. As someone alredy said Soul Calibur story was focused in two unfamiliar characters, that seems to be not so popular between gamers. Most of the story scenes were presented in sepia drawings, and there wasn't any explanation on what happened between soul calibur iv and v and practically all the other characters aside the Alexandra brothers were not relevant to the story.
Mortal Kombat story worked fairly well. There were some cool action scenes, all the characters that appeared have certain relevance to the story. And thinking that just cause the new story is going to be focused in Sonya and Cage is gonna be similar to Soul Calibur V is stupid because, they are not brothers, they are already very well know and popular characters, their personalities are totally different to the Patroklos and Phyrna(Cage is very fun), and because that the story will focuse on them that doesn't mean is gonna be just about them, just mean that maybe they are the ones that are going to start it all the events that are going to happend, and that is logic since they were of the few survivors from the previous game.

Well, you guys sure shot down that comparison. Now I look like the complete and total buffoon here (thanks for saying that, Saizo. BTW, I did play both game's story modes in case you were wondering) and not Cazaki.
The reason I made that comparison was the possible idea that Sonya and Cage were the main leads in the story and everyone else got shoved to the way side, similar to how it was in Soul Calibur V.

Most of it is safely known information (taking brutality to the next level, presence at evo, confirming dlc and guest characters) so the stuff that was leaked doesn't sound that out there.
Anyway, interested in seeing how they handle Liu Kang.

Maybe his soul was split in half, so then we will have "Good" Liu Kang and "Evil" Liu Kang. Each one would be a variation, and the last one would be the complete Liu Kang, after the heroes manage to reunite his two halves.

Raidens has always been dressed in blue and white, only exceptions I can think of being mk1 and deception. My favorite look on him was his mkda look tbh. He just looked so damn clean and the lightning come off him finished the costume perfectly. Also I hate when people refer to sindel and kitana. I honestly don't think that them being mother and daughter matters like Cassie being the daughter of cage and Sonya. Sindel was evil wasn't she? So who cares. I'd understand if Sonya and cage weren't in the game so as to prevent fatalities from them being done on Cassie, or even each other. So it's whatever I guess.

The whole fatality on a family member shouldnt really be a problem since it wont play a part of the story (i hope), since fatality's are usually just confined to the arcade and vs mode. So who cares if Sonya does a fatality on Cassie?

That's a lot of new tools Kano's got. It's funny as hell how they've tried to make cannonball a bit more useful by having an anti-air version and a dive version with a knockdown kick finish, but all it does is remind me of Athena's Phoenix Arrow. The new boxier eye implant is giving me Cyrax/Sektor vibes, though.

I know it doesn't mean shit, but I dislike that Kano's variations make his cybernetic eye change colors. I realize it's an extremely small thing and It probably won't make a huge difference but it just bugs me for some reason, I guess it just strays to far away from the Kano I know and love. But whatever, he still looks fun to play as, and his fatality looks really gory which is always welcomed.
The Sonya/Cage/Cassie argument seems redundant, MK has never had character to character fatality restrictions (with the exception of Kratos, but that's completely understandable) so I really doubt there'll be any changes in that regard. Game still looks very promising either way.
Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X (Last update on 12.08.14)
Post by: Macaulyn97 on August 13, 2014, 03:41:09 am
Well, Boon denied the presence of Sonya. And I don't see an understandable reason for restrictions in the Kratos fatalities. Different reactions like in Ermac's Pest Control and Krueger's IDon'tKnowTheName (the one where he throws the victim in an oven) are understandable, but not restrictions.

1. This has not been confirmed. Since the game starts off where the previous left off, there is a good chance they will be in. 2. Why? His dead. 3. Also not confirmed as that screen is from demo builds of the game.

Some news: http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/08/13/gamescom-2014-ed-boon-talks-mortal-kombat-x-story-mode-characters-and-guests
Kotal Kahn is an emperor of Outworld. He will rise and fall during the story, so we'll see his ass getting kicked.
Kotal Kahn is not the only other character that becomes emperor, so, we may see rise and fall of some other people, maybe some returning character.
D'Vorah is an ally of Kotal Kahn.
Cassie Cage's presence does not deny Johnny and Sonya's. Interactions between parents and offsprings is "one of the most exciting possibilities".

I was thinking in the sense of the SF4 canon because there isn't anything (at the moment) that would suggest that Kotal Kahn and D'Vorah would have the SFxT relationship that Bison and Juri had.

But they weren't allies in SSF4. I mean, Juri's rival battle is against M. Bison and they act towards each other as if they were always enemies. Of course, having D'Vorah as a traitor would be cool, but she doesn't look that powerful, compared to Kotal Kahn.

1. Johnny cage and sonya wont be in mkx (since their daughter is replacing them)
Doesn't the story begin with the survivors of the forces of light? Them being Raiden, Sonya and Cage? It's a 25-year time gap, I'm pretty sure we'll play as both of them at least in story mode.
So? That didn't seem to stop him in the original timeline. In fact there are very few MK characters that stayed dead in the original timeline, if any. In fact, I'm starting to understand why the original name idea for the first game was Immortal Kombat.
3. Since I saw the latest video featuring kano im sure that all the characters on top at the selectscreen are going to be returning characters from mk9.
Old "-ality" coming back (Probably Animality) and Boon still wants to make MK VS SF but knows it wont happen anytime soon because Capcom probably wont allow us to fulfill one of our deepest dreams ever: decapitate Ryu.

She was good after MK3 in the original timeline, that didn't stop the possibility of her and Kitana fighting and killing each other in versus.
as for your information being sure about something has nothing to do with seeing the future, at least not for me, i think that there is a high chance that these 3 things i mentoined are true
1. cassie cage has moves of johnny cage and sonya, so why should ed boon waist hes time bringing them back when he already has a new character that plays very close to them. 2. Ed boon stated that the main antagonist is going to be an "surprise returning character." so there is a high chance that liu kang is going to be resurected and become an villian to avenge hes own death against raiden. 3. there are already 4 returning characters and to be honest i dont think that there are much people how thought that kano is going to make an return in this game, that means that there have to be more mk9 characters to come , they cant replace to much characters cause they need them to tell the story mode.

1. Boon himself said that there would be parents-offspring interactions. I think that, gameplay-wise, Cassie is a mix of Sonya and Johnny, she uses their abilities, but in a different way, so I wouldn't discard their presence as playable so soon. Anyway, if they don't appear as playable, they'll surely make cameos. 2. That actually depends. A returning character from the entire franchise, or just from MK9? Because if it is from the entire frachise, I'd bet on Shinnok too, but, like @Graphicus I wouldn't be surprised. But from MK9's roster, anyone would be a surprise, I don't think any of them would return as the main antagonist. I thought about Blaze or Onaga, but Blaze did not have his full power until MKA and Onaga's presence may require Reptile and, hopefully, Nitara in the story, like before. 3. Actually, being Kano one of the few who didn't die, his presence was very predictable. Boon said this will be the game in which they'll introduce most new characters and that the number of characters would be around 30, so, there is place for a lot of people to return and come in.

someone on FB said MKX is confirmed for PS3 and 360... is that true? o_o
also a girl said she play a MKX demo on xbox one... that's a lie right? I remember the demo from MK9 was one week before the game came out
It is confirmed for PS3 and 360, Ed Boon said that on an interview. However, no demo was released yet.
Jesus dude... do you ever read other people's replies before posting your own? This is like the 3rd time you've repeated information that someone else already posted about, I have no reason to dislike you bro, just fucking read the thread, That is all I ask.

Than I read that it was Lord M who posted..and regret that I clicked on the thread.
Please Lord M, please post only if you have something to write nobody else here said already. Don't come up with polls nobody cares about, don't speculate weird shit.

I haven't seen if someone already wrote that Ed Boon wants to add another fighting style for the characters, something like a barehand mode just for that ones that don't need especial moves to play and think are good enough to try it out
Sounds interesting so far...

Ed also mentioned it more than one time already that no DC comics characters would be guest characters.
Most likely there will be one guest character from another popular game on the specific console in there, makes me wonder what the PC gets.
My predictions are Fulgore on the xb consoles and Sweeth Tooth on the Playstations. Have no clue about the PC version.

Not a bad look for Goro, just wish we could see a little more.
I may be amongst only few here, but this was my favorite incarnation of Goro from any of the MK games. (http://testyourmight.com/attachments/goro2-jpg.9044/) I just liked that he had a "give no fucks" attitude. In MK9 he just seemed like a mindless brute that followed every single one of Kahn's orders without question. I'd like to see Goro rebel against Kahn or something, I've always thought Goro would make a hella cool good guy. Plus I don't think we've ever seen a good guy Shokan in any MK game.

That's pretty much his MK9 Ladder (non-canon) ending. Whichever the case, if he gets in the roster (I honestly have no idea why he wouldn't to begin with), I hope he turns into a good guy again.

I don't know how much of an attitude or actual canon story they can give a DLC character, sadly. They didn't give any to Rain or Skarlet in MK9, just ladder mode endings. Though admittedly we did learn a couple of things.

I like the nostalgic feel of the controller, and it certainly brings back fond memories of MK3 in my youth. And I can get that they put an analog stick in there in order to "modernize" the old experience. But I just can't comprehend why the right side is shorter than the left... it looks so weird. I just can't imagine it being more comfortable than the Genesis controller, especially for someone with long-ass fingers like myself.

I'm all for flashiness, but holy fuck. Those X-Rays are pretty much fatalities. One of Stryker's MK9 fatalities was literally shooting someone with his fucking handgun blowing their god damn head to bits, but yet Cassie's shoots someone with not one, BUT TWO! handguns and it merely stuns the opponent? Either Cassie's pistols are uber fucking nerfed or MK's logic is totally fucked.

In all seriousness though, I've noticed that quan chi actually LOOKS EVIL. Even has an evil move set to compliment his evil looks. He's definitely looking his best in mkx. Can't wait to see who the next character reveal is.

Gamers eagerly awaiting the release of NetherRealm Studio's upcoming Mortal Kombat X will be able to get their fill of fatalities when the digital series of the same name debuts in January 2015. Writer and relative newcomer Shawn Kittelsen will be joined by artist Dexter Soy, who was previously seen tearing it up in Captain Marvel, and cover artist Ivan Reis. The creative plans out staying true to the foundational story laid down in 2011's Mortal Kombat while blowing open the expansive world of the upcoming game. According to Kittelsen, the entire roster of character from the franchise's long history is at their disposal, so fans can look forward to seeing some familiar faces that might not appear on screen in Mortal Kombat X along with a slew of new characters.

One thing a guy from the Wikia Forum found out is that Quan Chi's boots are the first image of that image Boon tweeted: (http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140830205419/mk_/images/e/ec/BwPsmzCCcAAvnd4.jpg) We need to guess the other ones.
I got a feeling this is gonna be just like the whole silhouette trolling thing, but what the hell...
1.- Quan Chi (obviously) 2.- Jax 3.- The footwear made me think Liu Kang, but looking at the ankle, I have serious doubts. 4.- Kitana? Jade? Unsure 5.- Kung Lao 6.- Shinnok
I'm probably quite off and my time was just pointlessly spent, though. :P
My speculation for boot #3 could maybe a new fighter from the White Locust School (where Liu Kang & Kung Lao learned martial arts)

since the costume between all three types is practically the same with only minor details/ effects to tell them apart, it would be COOL if we can actually change type in game maybe by consuming power, just like playstation port of MVC's Ryu who can change into gouki and ken in game, that was super cool.

This news comes courtesy of the United Kingdom’s GamesMaster magazine, who recently revealed that they’ve been provided some exclusive information on the title that will be revealed in an upcoming edition.
Who this mysterious fighter may be, however, is anyone’s guess. NetherRealm Studios executive producer Shaun Himmerick mentioned in a recent interview that Quan Chi’s appearance in Mortal Kombat X allows them to do some interesting things with the story thanks to his ability to resurrect the dead, which definitely opens the possibilities up a bit.

Well, Quan Chi could bring some of them back, but they'd look different and/or act different. That's been stated, but it would be different to have a spector/shadow version of Liu Kang. Maybe his soul got mixed with Kung Lao's. That is, if Kung Lao's dead.

He still did a fair share, actually. In MKD, he and Ermac worked together to free his friends from Onaga's control.
He's pretty much dead, yes. Shao Kahn snapped his neck from behind after he singlehandedly fended off Quan Chi and Shang Tsung combined... oh, and Kintaro. Man, the more I think about it, the more I realize the fights in MK9's story were such a clusterfuck.

Quote
While these details were planned to come next month, the information dropped before the new year thanks to the Finnish publication. Far from a mere character reveal, they were also provided quite a glimpse at how the veteran will play in the upcoming title.
Tempest charges the combatant with even more spinning power as well as the ability to put his hat in orbit around his body like a sort of revolving shield. Buzzsaw, on the other hand, sharpens Kung Lao’s signature headwear and gives him greater control of its trajectory. Finally, the Hat Trick variation allows the returning combatant to call back his hat at any time, conjuring images of Soulcalibur V’s Viola and her orb shenanigans.

Based on the age, it appears to be the same Kung Lao that showed up in MK9, from what I can tell... however, don't forget that "our" Kung Lao is a descendant of the original Kung Lao so it's entirely possible that many people can take up the Kung Lao name. This guy could be the original's brother or something along those lines.

In the same matter of MKX Sub-Zero being a completely new person taking up the name but retains the original's gameplay style. This is why I feel that this is a different person taking the alias "Kung Lao". And the fact his model can be adjusted for the "MK9" Kung Lao to return as a wraith/zombie.
Now I wait for Blanche to be promoted to a playable character.

Post by: Macaulyn97 on January 05, 2015, 06:31:10 am
Well, there is a very good reason for bringing back old characters: replacement characters are only a stupid way of recycling movesets or special moves. With exception of Kuai Liang, no one was ever made well, nor it was interesting or memorable. Seriously, I'd rather have a lot of revived people than having useless characters like Kira back only for replacement.
Sure, you could mention Cassie, but we don't know if she will actually replace Sonya and Johnny (although this is very likely), and also, her special moves work in a different way, just using the same powers. If it is to keep the same powers like Sheeva (who is already based on Goro) and Baraka, its better to keep Sheeva and (hopefully not returning) Baraka.

NO.
I know I don't speak for every MK fan out there, but the idea of Sheeva having two arms is ridiculous. Most, if not all, fans remember what happened to Motaro in Armageddon and that was a total joke.
No chance that will happen again, even to a character that isn't as well liked as Sheeva.

Sheeva is known for her 4 arms, like goro and kintaro, and to change that would fuck things up.

Fuck out here hsu hao! Also, I did a little research on this comic because I wanted to see if I could read it somewhere online, and I found a interview article with ign. Apparently kenshi has a son named takeda. I don't know if you guys knew already but I didnt, so maybe we could see takeda as a new character who has kenshis powers and maybe more.

Well I want to say when Hsu Hao debuted on MKDA, it was Midways trying to take a different approach with the game going full 3D, Not counting mk4/GOLD, and adding alot of new and fresh content and tbh I liked it, not Hsu Hao though but what you expect when they had Mokap as a character who was really one of the "Mo"tion "Kap"ture guys from the studio.
They lost me with those two in that game, btw I would love to see Frost again.

I think that was part of it, Syn.
IMO, they wanted to add people for the Red Dragon much like how the Black Dragon had Kano, Kabal and Jarek. Problem was that neither Mavado or Hsu Hao were that interesting. Hell, the only good thing about Hsu Hao in Deadly Alliance was his Fatality.
Personally, I want to see Drahmin back, but I know that will never happen.

I have to say, I fucking hated Kabal becoming a villain out of the blue.
But anyway, I figured I could just leave a list of dead characters because people seem to be forgetting which ones died in MK9.
Good guys: Liu Kang, Kung Lao, Jax, Sub Zero, Kitana, Jade, Stryker, Kabal, Nightwolf, Smoke.
Bad guys: Shang Tsung, Shao Kahn (apparently), Noob Saibot (apparently, though I think the Soulnado reverted him back to Sub Zero and he's the Sub Zero we saw in MKX), Motaro, Sindel.

Damn that's pretty much everybody. So the ones who are still alive
Good guys: Johnny cage, Sonya, raiden, ermac, cyrax
Bad guys: Reptile, baraka, sheeva, goro, kintaro, quan chi, sektor, mileena, Kano I feel like I missed someone or a couple people. Been 3 or 4 years since I last played this
Cyrax worked with Sektor, so that technically makes him a bad guy. Same with Ermac (Arcade endings usually aren't canon, BTW)

Now you mentioned it, I remember posting in another Forum about the endings. Some endings have characters appearing on it could be potential characters in MKX:
- Scorpion - Hasashi Clan's spirits - I had a crazy idea once of having Scorpion's wife (or maybe someone else from Hasashi Clan) return as a ghost-like character. It could be awesome, something less skeleton/zombie and more ghostly.
- Jade - Mysterious woman - Why would they even add that character there? She must have some participation on MKX.
- Liu Kang - God Liu Kang - I always see people asking for Liu Kang to return, I've seen people speculating him as the main villain, why not have him returning as a god, we don't really know if he died.
- Nightwolf - Were-Nightwolf - MK never had a werewolf character, did it? The spirits could bring him back like this, or maybe his spirit could make someone else become a werewolf.
- Noob Saibot - Havik - Being a relatively popular character (and, if he had more importance in the new timeline), he could make a return.
- Sektor - Lin Kuei Grandmaster - Since Sektor did not kill his father yet, I could see him entering the game, maybe as a cameo?
- Shang Tsung - Bo'rai Cho - It seems unlikely that Shang Tsung will actually return, but, in his ending, God Liu Kang reveals himself evil and Bo'rai Cho appears to teach him to fight him. Sure, its kinda hard with the death of Shang Tsung, but we could still have Bo'rai Cho teaching someone to fight against a God Liu Kang.
- Quan Chi - Shinnok - Well, he is practically confirmed by the canon ending too.
- Skarlet - Brotherhood of Shadow - Is any of these guys playable yet? They should have a playable representant, and the Shadow Priests too.

- Liu Kang: I really want Liu Kang as a villain in MKX!
- Nightwolf: Why not? Bring Nightwolf back as a Werewolf...
- Havik: The Cleric of Chaos maybe will help Noob Saibot in MKX...
- Sektor: Hmmm.. no.
- Shang Tsung: Could be strange Shang Tsung fighting in the Good Side. :P
- Quan Chi/Shinnok: Please, Shinnok as the main boss in MKX!
- Skarlet: I guess not.

I don't mind Bo rai Cho, but just make him more interesting and with more interesting moves. A guy who can throw up on command really doesn't make me look at him as a great martial artist and a good teacher :s

The three variations could allow them to have Bo Rai Cho redeisnged as a serious guy with attacks which are not based on his old design while the third one could be a throwback called Drunkyard where he does the puking stuff etc..that would be really fun I think.
It will also be interesting to see the variations of Goro. I mean..that guy never had a lot of different moves..
While I cancelled my pre-order before because I really hate dlc in fighting games I pre ordered it again lol. This game just looks too good and interesting to wait 10+ months for the komplete edition. Damn ya NRS!

Now, I'm going to assume that the comic will explain why Kung Lao and Kitana are back from the dead and Quan Chi's clutches.

*facepalm*
If you paid attention to what happened after the fight between Nightwolf and Sindel, you would know that Kitana died in the arms of Liu Kang.
Like I said before, the comic could have an explanation as to why they've been resurrected.

Third comic has the Spoiler Realm in the form of a comic book page. Raiden's having visions again.
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
(http://i.imgur.com/NfS6mN5.jpg) The snow hikers in the top left corner are Hanzo and Takeda, on their way to Raiden's place to complain about the dagger that sent the noface kid nuts (also Quan Chi was behind that) Also, Frost and Cassie (who wears Cage on her pants like her dear ol' dad) are fighting, or training, or whatever. Next along is Kotal Kahn getting a nice big ol' drink of heartjuice, with Ferra/Torr in the background and somebody else. Smoke? Reptile? Around the board we've got Jax with a pretty pimpin' beard, training with... who? His wife? His daughter? Next along is Kano stabbing someone in the hand. That someone might even be Shokan..? Then we've got Sub Zero, still fighting cyborg ninjas. And Mileena and Reiko, together for some reason probably to do with the Outworld crown. Also not on this page is Fujin trying to tell Raiden why his ideas suck and only get people into trouble.
Better topic of discussion: who got redesigns? Scorpion, Raiden, Kano, all present, all wearing their MKX gear. Kotal Kahn, Cassie Cage, obviously as well. The others? Reiko and Fujin are blatantly wearing their Armageddon outfits, which means no effort has gone into new designs. They're deader than disco. Takeda's gotten a lot of screentime here, so that iron is probably still in the fire. Frost is in new duds, but they're pretty generic, which might mean a comic cameo, or if Takeda's anything to go by there could be more to see. Whoever's behind Kotal Kahn is probably in, Smoke or Reptile it looks like a newish costume. Jax I'm not sure about... Looks very reminiscent of his MK2 gear only with the added bionic arms. Could be more to do with Ms Jax too. There are too many Sub Zeros to make a call on that yet. And Mileena is surprisingly wearing a new outfit, and no mask. Potentially her MKX gear?
Grain of salt time. There's word around the twitter campfire that a Gamestop promo vid for MKX leaked then pulled a while back. Listed six names; Sub Zero, Scorpion, Raiden and Quan Chi we already knew. The two others were Kitana (since confirmed) and Mileena (unconfirmed, but has a new design in the comics). Keep in mind this news was from two weeks ago, before anyone knew Kitana was even on the table.

- Whats the problem with Jax being alive? This could be a vision of the past or, well, its not like dying is an issue in Mortal Kombat, is it? - Regarding Sub-Zero, he could have been reborn in a new body. - Mileena is heir to Shao Kahn's throne and Reiko wants to rule Outworld, he is probably using her, or she is using him. I just hope there is no kiss scene between these two.

I dont think that we will see much characters from previous games probably kenshi since he was in mk9 but the others dont have good chances at all. Boon said that this game will feature more new characters than any other mk game.that means that beside the returning chars from mk9 and new chars like kotal kahn, cassie,dvorah,ferra torr. Etc there wont be much space for older chars like drahmin or hsu hao. But who knows !!?

I know there's still a little under half the cast to be revealed so I'm in no way griping about it, but I thought they would emphasize introducing new blood a bit more. They haven't revealed a newcomer since E3.

Well, now's their chance. They're doing a livestream next Thursday, and Boon just hinted at two new reveals for it.
Resume :book2: - Raiden and Fujin together because of a chaos coming to Earthrealm (again...) and Outworld. - Is it a SNES in Cassie's home? Really a good fight against Jax's daughter (or niece, idk). And poor Cassie, felt so alone. :( - Damn, Sonya is a colonel! And damn, Kotal and Mileena fight for the Outworld throne!! So is it Mileena that will used Reiko?? :shocked2: - Erron Black? I highly hope that this guy being a new character! :yes: - Sonya more badass than never! :D - Frost is a MMA fighter now? Hmmm, let's see what that two show for us in the next chapter.

It's jax's niece.
Frost is just in a deathmatch. So, not necessarily MMA, just a fighter, I have a feeling Cassie will just kill her hah.

Also know as a Enemy Mine (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/EnemyMine) situation.
So, I really doubt Frost's appearance there is random. She must have a reason to be on some underground fighting dump, and since she is a mildly popular character I doubt she will be killed. I can guess she, along with Mileena and Fujin will make it into the game. Also hoping to see more of Erron Black, he surely looks cool.

Which fit what happened to him in the past Mortal Kombat games(The more feral he becomes, the more beastly he gets but the more passive he becomes, the more human he gets).

I'm very disappointed as well. I'm growing tired of so many reveals of old characters, while the last new character reveal was in the E3 trailer (which had all the currently revealed new ones) and, also, we know little about the story, too. Sure, the returning characters look awesome, but how about something new? It was said that MKX would introduce more characters than any other MK game, and yet, we're getting closer and closer to the release and we don't know shit about the story, nor do we have that much new faces.

To be fair there's still half the roster left but yeah, it does look rather meh. 4 new characters (all of which were revealed early) doesn't quite cut it in respect to being "the SF3 of Mortal Kombat."
Variation system looks interesting so there's that at least.

I hope that you're right, because some outfits don't like it. My score of the outfits: -Sub-Zero I give a 7.5 -Scorpion I give a 7 -Reptile I give a 10 -Ermac I give a 6 -Kitana I give a 9.5 -Raiden I give a 7.5 -Kano I give a 7 -Kung Lao I give a 8 -Quan Chi I give a 9

Yes but, contrarily of other companies Boon and company aren't greedy and them hear to his fans, that not means that not will have dlc but probably will be characters or stages, then I think that at least every char will have one alternative outfit, one for continue the plot of Mortal Kombat 9 and the principal outfit for the plot of Mortal Kombat X.

Yeah that's not a female, it's Sunrisewolf. People are saying the guy below him is Jax. Can't say who's the char above Quan Chi.
Sunrisewolf? Did he appear on the comics? When Boon hinted a character with a bow, I did expect it to be someone from Nightwolf's tribe, and, considering the name, its probably his brother. I don't think the one below is Jax, it has a red headgear, a white face and its quite thin. Also, those metal things could be gauntlets.

Yeah, I can't see a bonus hound like Boon being okay with the common micro-trans formula. The guy probably thought they were talking about regular DLC.

Can't you at least wait and see if the microtransactions are early unlocks in the first place?
I'm pretty sure people will be fine if they get extra cash from lazy people instead of serious players.

I just want to know if we'll be able to buy Goro as DLC later on because locking it to preorders ONLY is such a dick move it made me lose pretty much all the interest I had towards the game. I'll definitely wait for a super Komplete edition that's bound to have him, besides the PC version will suck like always.

I bet Goro will become a DLC, I don't think Ed Boon would punch everyone in the face like that just for not pre-ordering the game. I'd give it 1 month, maybe 2, if much, to Goro become a DLC.

Chapter 6
It seems Kotal Kahn isn't necessarily a "bad guy"
and Mileena took Shao Kahns place. I'm not sure why they're advertising goro as "goro lives" other than the mk1 reference. he never died or was hinted so in mk9 :L

For the record, Mayans didn't lived in the Amazon, and you'll be hard pressed to find any ziggurats there.
Probably not, but in Central America there are tropical forests (like Amazon) and that is not a ziggurat, its a Mayan building. Here is the temple of one of their deities, Kukulkan: (http://artforgorillas.wildlifedirect.org/files/2008/12/el-castillo-temple-of-kukulkan.jpg)

Bingo. The tradition for Aztecs were usually to capture their foes, sacrifice them and eat their hearts (their gods always demanded sacrifices and, like you mentioned City, they would gain the opponent's strength by doing so).

Well, Buluc Chabtan (aka Kotal Kahn) was a god of war, violence, sudden death and human sacrifices. Also, the human sacrifices were not a tradition only for the Aztecs, Mayans did it too, so its not out of lore.

Jade hasn't been deconfirmed because of what happened to her in MK9. Like you said, Kung Lao's had his neck broken and he's still back.
No, Jade's been deconfirmed because NRS decided she wasn't going to be in MKX.

According to a published report, Mortal Kombat X will include Predator as a playable character in a June DLC pack.
An unnamed source told VideoGamer.com Predator will be joined by Colonel Al Dillon, played by Carl Weathers in the original movie. Weathers has allegedly allowed for his likeness to be used for the game, the report further states.

New comic's out, showing off some of Kotal Kahn's disarming levels of charm. Also gives us the first full look at Mileena's MKX design, which is pretty cool.
Also, the date of the next stream will be revealed Monday. Something makes me think the next character reveal will be Monday in a Reptile-style trailer, with an in-depth gameplay breakdown on the stream later in the week. From the last stream we also know there's going to be Brutalities as well.

I wonder how Brutalities are going to work out in this game, because the last time that was in a MK game, it was a long complicated button string finisher.
I personally hope it's done similar to KI's Ultra Combo: A separate motion that can be done in a combo.

But goro didn't die, giving him his arms back won't be too much of an issue with magic being a thing in the mk universe. [inb4 Goro with jax arms]
Rain, looked pretty fried/dead to me. so I doubt he'll be in the main cast. I personally never buy DLC characters because they'll probably end up doing a komplete edition with all the DLC characters/stuff again anyway.

As far as I know, Rain can regenerate from water and fuse with it. Since he really melted, any water there could become him again. Although I find it unlikely that he'll actually appear, I don't think that his death truly deconfirms him in the game.

To be honest, I am bit disappointed as well. We don't know the plot of the game yet (not even the comics and streams revealed us the plot, just some events), and we only have D'Vorah, Kotal, Cassie and Ferra as new characters, and this MK was said to be the one to introduce the greatest number of characters, so, yeah, there are many things missing for me.

Story mode is looking mighty interesting.
Brutalities are looking nice as well... I get the feeling that this is Netherealm's answer to the Instant Kills/Astral Heats you would find in pretty much all of ASW's games. Why? Well, it's finishing mechanic that is used in the last round of a match after you meet certain conditions. Simple enough, right?
Well, the big difference is that Brutalities are done off of special moves. In any ASW game, the IK is always it's own special move. Here, they are part of a special move... almost as if this game is looking back to it's old 'Bloodsport' rivals and how they had special moves that were also treated like IK's.

MK1 Raiden costume has me hype as fuck to see what other retro outfits make it back. And then there's Mileena, who looks great too. I'm willing to wait and see on the new faces, but Jacqui looks kinda bland at the moment.

Cool story mode, we can confirm some characters now: -Jacqueline Briggs (Daughter of Jax) -Takahashi Takeda (Son of Kenshi) -Kun Jin (Descendant of Kung Lao) -Mileena (Because is important in the plot and has new outfit) -Rain (Because he returned of the death and has new outfit) -Shinnok (Because is important in the plot and has a new outfit)
I think that Sindel will have a cameo only, Jhonny Cage too, even Baraka. Sub-zero without his ninja clothes and Scorpion in his Human form. I'm happy that Rain is back :D My theory is that Rain and Mileena are back, not be back the Cyber ninjas.

KuoJin (?) is the archer person along with Takehashi, though he might be an NPC.
Milenna, Jacqueline from the comics, Zombie Sindel, and Shinnok are here. Erron Black at the end it's Reptile. Still no Tremor.
He is not an NPC, didn't you see his fatality in the end? Also, don't worry about Erron and Tremor being missing, it still says "Who's Next?" in the end.
I was referring to Takashi though, and now he's playable. I thought he was going to be a story-mode character at first when watching it for the first time and didn't think footage of him fighting were there.

Is not unlikely to have a female character boss in a Fighting game. There have been a bunch of them
Mizuki in Samurai Shodown II Oume in Power Instinct 1 Otane in Power Intinct 2 Princess Sissy in Matrimelee Karai in TMNT Tournament Fighters Dural in Vitual Fighter Unknown Tekken Tag Tournament Kazumi Mishima in Tekken 7 Ihadurca in Evil Zone Justice in Guilty Gear I-no In guilty Gear (I don't remember which part) Beatriz in Rumble Fish Elysium in Sou Calibur V
And there's probably more but these are the ones that I can remember

Yeah, but how many of those female bosses was worth a damn (by that I mean, actually a memorable one)? I'm not saying its a bad idea to add a female boss or that Empress Mileena should not be a boss for being female, I'm just saying that, if they want to do a female boss, make one that is memorable, like Shao Kahn was in MK9.

I-no is the most memorable of those female bosses to me. What makes a boss memorable anyway? Of course Shao Kahn is more memorable. He was the boss in 4? 5 MK games? MK is more popular than most of those other games and has been around longer than most.

MK 2-3 / Ultimate/Trilogy, Shaolin Monks and MK 9, also more or less in MKA and MK vs DC as well + being a playable character in some of the MK Deception ports and MK Armageddon + he had that cool voice, was difficult in the nineties featured in almost all the MK Movies and TV series and had all these funny taunts.

They made just everything right with that design of Shao Kahn in a time where it was not easy (No or almost no Internet) to share how he can be defeated easily.
I wonder if we will see 1-2 Mid-Bosses again in MKX like Goro and Kintaro in MK9 and also some regular characters having Boss-Forms ..could easily imagine that Shinnok could be the Boss of one chapter of the story until Raiden kills/captures Shinnok as seen in the trailer and it either continues with Kotal Kahn and Mileena or we even see a return of Onaga already but I doubt that. Maybe Liu Kang returns as a really bad guy this time.
Meh that Bo Rai Cho and Frost are most likely not part of the game.

In my opinion all of them are pretty memorable (I love Mizuki, The Goketsuji Twins and Princess Sissy) Maybe the only ones that I don't consider memorable are Karai and Justice. But anyway if Mileena happens to be the boss of the game, she is already pretty memorable an popular character, so you will have a memorable female boss.
About mid bosses I might think that Reiko could be one, but who knows in previous games the mid-bosses were huge and Reiko is average size.

That scene seems to be taking some liberties with how events transpired. In MK Mythologies Sub-Zero kills Scorpion on a job, then Quan Chi wipes out the Shirai Ryu because they had an agreement. Then later, Quan Chi tells Scorpion Sub-Zero did it (which, yeah, he was totally responsible for it). In MK9 Quan Chi shows Scorpion a false vision of Sub-Zero killing the Shirai Ryu although it's unknown if the Mythologies canon is still in place at that point. If they are retconning it to be more like Legacy then Quan Chi shapeshifted into Sub-Zero because fuck it he's a wizard and Sub-Zero's completely without blame.

Now i've think of it, i think Hanzo was illiterate, like didn't look carefully the difference between Sub-Zero brothers' outfits during Lin Kuei's participation on assassinating Shirai-Ryu doing Quan Chi's dirty work in MK9. Even though what he did on killing Bi Han became part of a payback to Kuai Liang by luck before he finds the Lin Kuei only just doing their job hired by Quan Chi. I hope some of you 1990s players did remember on Scorp (not counting Kuai Subs)'s ED in MK4G too.

Some more details from other previews: At the end, we were able to speak with a few of the developers of the game. Our first question: are Jax and Shinnok playable characters? This question stemmed from Chapter 1, where both characters are fought. Each have their own combat variations, which suggests that both will be playable. After all, NetherRealm wouldn’t spend a great amount of time creating the variations if they weren’t going to be playable. Alas, NetherRealm was not ready to answer that question.
Now I wonder if Shinnok is unlockable like Quan Chi in MK9. (http://www.hardcoregamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/RaidenFujinAmulet.jpg)
Here are characters confirmed not to be playable in Mortal Kombat X: Sindel, Kabal, Stryker, Smoke and Nightwolf. All of these character’s assets were reused from Mortal Kombat and all will likely only appear in cutscenes.

I don't care if someone else is doing the last gen work here, but I would think that if there was going to be a delay, the guys at Netherealm ought to be the ones saying 'The last gen version is going to be delayed by a few months because there are some issues to iron out', not freaking Amazon.

at end of the video showed all the systems (which, of course, includes PS3 and Xbox 360).
That's the page where you can preorder and stuff, doesn't mention release dates or anything there.
edit: I just found out the same team that did PC MK9 and Injustice is doing the last-gen ports, gg.

Greenmangaming.com has it for $43.79 right now via VIP deals (You gotta make an account there to see it) and you can probably use the 23% off voucher to add that discount on top of it.
You can also buy it for $30 on Nuuvem but the key is most likely region locked to South and North America (Activation is locked but you can play it anywhere in the world) although the price might be different if you navigate their store from your country.

I guess on that topic, I'm not that enthused about it either. Never been big on guest characters though Jason is a naturally fitting choice as a cameo. Then of course there's the obvious DLC thing but that's another matter.
At the very least he could've explained why he didn't care, which would be an oxymoron anyway but whatever. Better than posting a cringe inducing gif with disgusting color loss.

That's probably halfway right. Companies just like to protect their assets in case they decide to try it for themselves (also because they're assholes). I doubt Mortal Kombat was in mind when TerrorDrome received a C&D, but they knew an opportunity like this would present itself eventually so TerrorDrome needed to be stopped in case it would step in on profits. That's just the mentality of the business.

It would be nice except for the fact that.. well, I don't have the money for it right now. Plus, I'm perfectly happy with my PS3. Online play is free with that. ;)
As to what Senna said: That's how I'm taking it now. Yes, I'm unhappy that they did this, but if it means that the game is bug and glitch free, then I'm for it. To me, the issue of games being sent out being very incomplete is a big problem IMO. You'd think that these companies would spend a little more money on quality assurance and testing to make sure the games work properly.

As a guy who fucking loves crossovers, Jason is pretty cool to see. Matter of fact, I saw him coming from a mile away. They could have alts for him like his klassic look and even that look from that awful move Jason x ( lol mkX jason X). Wonder what his variations would be though? Feel like "slasher" would be one, where he uses a machete.

Oh, no, I meant him winning against those two after taking a helicopter crash. Granted there's times like that too in MK9, Liu Kang's fun double team at the first tournament comes to mind, but he has destiny and fate and whatnot on his side. Johnny's no slouch but still.

I didn't like it already starting with QTEs. I think those don't really fit a fighting game, but I guess its not too bad. Anyway, I wonder why did Johnny and Sonya divorced, they look pretty fine in the start of Chapter 1. Also, Maximilian Dood said that, apparently, whether you win or lose in fights or perform correctly the QTEs, it will change the course of the story. I guess that means multiple endings, not really bad.
I'm more intrigued at how Quan Chi managed to de-cyborg him.
Well, technically, its his possessed soul, so, Quan Chi can do whatever he wants with it, maybe changing appearence is included.

I'm wouldn't be surprised if this is true, her appearence in the comics hinted more than just a cameo, also, we saw Cassie interacting with a Sub-Zero leading the Lin Kuei in the Story trailer, so, it makes sense for her to be there.

Only applies to PS3/PS4. Guy was quted as saing "region locks will be the same as Injustice and MK9 were." (http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/mkwikia/images/2/22/Mkxgoingtoberegionlocked.PNG/revision/latest?cb=20150314030639) Those two games had region free matchmaking on X360 and PC.

In the first, “Who’s Next“, the final screens show up logos of PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Network, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC. In the second, “The family Cage“, the logos of the PS3 and Xbox 360 have magically disappeared. Why?

Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X (Last update on 02.26.15)
Post by: Macaulyn97 on March 15, 2015, 05:41:55 am
Probably because of the delay. The PS3 and 360 versions will have their release delayed, so, they'll just show the ones that stayed in the official date, so that they don't get bad advertising due to the delay of the last-gen. After all, the ones they want to call more attention to are probably the next-gen versions anyway.
EDIT: I also wouldn't be surprised if this "delay" was actually just a plan to reduce the last-gen sales. After all, both Sony and Microsoft would want focus on the next-gen consoles, while Netherrealm would only gain from next-gen only sales. After all, if they released both last-gen and next-gen consoles, people who don't care about graphics would just buy the last-gen version because its cheaper.

After all, the ones they want to call more attention to are probably the next-gen versions anyway.
EDIT: I also wouldn't be surprised if this "delay" was actually just a plan to reduce the last-gen sales. After all, both Sony and Microsoft would want focus on the next-gen consoles, while Netherrealm would only gain from next-gen only sales. After all, if they released both last-gen and next-gen consoles, people who don't care about graphics would just buy the last-gen version because its cheaper.
OR maybe they're delaying it so they can improve it a bit more? because apparently netherealm is such an evil company they delay their own game to boost sales for next-gen. sounds legit.

This is NOT TRUE. This is BULLSHIT. NetherRealm doesn't say anything about cancelling the PS3 and 360 versions. It's just delaying. Tmag always do things like that for pay attention.
I agree, movado had some nice designs, just wish they could've tweaked his move set a bit to make him a cooler character.
Ehh.. I thought Mavado could of used a different weapon or have his hookswords be different from the ones Kabal had.

The whole point of the hookswords was the fact that they were Kabal's hookswords, so that's more or less justified. I'm personally hoping for him to come back; I love his design.

Immortals? Which game is that? Well, anyway, I did expect something new (expecting it to be too different would be stupid, as even Batman Arkham Origins for mobile had the same gameplay). But, anyway, its just another way of making money, they add mobile unlockables and people buy it (well, its probably free, but there are purchaseable things).
One more reason for me to believe that the PS3/360 delay was an intentional way of boosting the next-gen sales.

this literally makes no sense. no company does this. delays are usually to iron out bugs and issues. last-gen probably can't handle alot so they have to cut back on some stuff for quality.

That's what I'm worried about. I'm trying to save money! As much as I want a ps4, I'm trying to save up for the really important thing I want, I'm scared nether realms will pull a wwe 2k15 and cut out a lot of stuff because last gen won't be able to handle all of it. I like to get the absolute most out of a game, I don't wanna miss out on kontent because I don't have next gen or the right system.

Pretty much, he drags the intestines up.
Was NRS looking at some eroguro games when they thought on Takeda's fatality? That has to be the MOST sickening fatality I've seen in the entire franchise (even besting Kung Lao's Razor's Edge).

Its name apparently is "Whip It Good" (the other fatality name is "Head Cage", I think it doesn't fit this fatality). But hell, that is nauseating.
Also, did anyone notice that Mileena's face looks better less ugly now? Like, its not just a Baraka face, I found it much more fitting, since she is not entirely Tarkatan, but its still kinda creepy. Also, she doesn't appear act "seductively" anymore, she is more serious and dark.

This might be the single most nasty fatality in the series history. More nasty then the hat bisect in MK2, more nasty then the leg rip and beating from MK4, and more nasty then just about anything MK9 had.

Tremor is one of the few characters in the series who has never been playable in any of the games, so the idea of Tremor being playable is pretty big for those who have put up with Special Forces.
Not to mention that he would be a good way to help tie in the Black Dragon.

Oh shit, I didn't know that. Well, now my hopes are cautiously up again.
On topic again,Tanya looks like shit. And I'm surprised that Netherrealm actually decided on including a character from the terrible Special Forces game....
I have no idea who Tanya or Tremor are. Pharaoh Ermac sounds cool as fuck.
Tremor is a Black Dragon member who appeared in that terrible MK: Special Forces game, and Tanya is yet another Jade/Kitana look-alike who debuted in MK4.

Why Tanya of ALL klassic kharacters though? Why not Kai or jarek or someone else? Eh, I guess I can't really complain, after all, there will be more dlc and not all the rest of the characters have been revealed, so there's still some hope.

To be honest, I never saw Tremor as an interesting character, because to me, he was just yet another ninja palette swap (probably the reason people love him so much). On the bright side, at least they managed to make him look like a decent design.

Well duh. People wanted him mainly so they will give him a redesign and make him interesting. Just like every other ninja in the series.

It was kinda unfair to have Tremor as the only ninja to remain as a boring palette-swap. I'm very satisfied with his addition, if he is cool as he appears to be, I will have hope for any shitty character in the series to become good.

I don't think rain is gonna be in. I noticed that on those modifiers demonstration, rain had an assist. So did kabal, cyrax, Stryker and I think sektor. Those are all characters who won't be playable in the game, so I'm assuming that deconfirms rain.

Well, there are modifiers with freeze and eletric attacks that work similar to Sub-Zero and Raiden, so, I wouldn't discard these yet. Also, they said there are lots (more than a hundred, if I recall correctly) of modifiers and we didn't see if there are any assists with playable characters too.
Tanya? One of the worst MK4 characters? And with a pretty goddamn awful hairdo too. Meh.
Which character debut in MK4 was actually good besides Quan Chi and Shinnok (I don't even know if this is their debut or if it was in MKM)? Pretty much all of them were just other character wannabes. Tanya was, at least, important to the story (more than some other debuts), whereas others, like Jarek and Kai, barely made any difference.

Reiko appears to be a main character in the story, from what I could see in the comics. If he doesn't die (or even if he dies, after all, its MK) he is likely to be in the main roster. I do remember, also, that Fujin is in one of Raiden's visions in the comics, so, he may have a role in the game too.

My thoughts too honestly, they could've brought back a klassic character better than Tanya. Is she even popular like??? :s I thought she was pretty forgettable. If they really wanted a female, I think nitara would fit pretty well into this game. What about ashraa? Or however you spell it. There was other options but it's whatever, nothing we can do about it.

You mean a rumor? No, he was actually a character from the less known game of the Mortal Kombat franchise: Mortal Kombat Special Forces. It was like Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks, the only difference is that it was disgustingly horrible. Basically it had Jax fighting against the Black Dragon, and Tremor was one of the bosses.
But I wouldn't think that the DLCs end with them. Remember that Injustice had all the DLC characters "leaked" and then they released Zatanna and Martian Manhunter too? There could be others, maybe some newcomers, rumor characters and even returning ones, you never know.

I agree. We haven't see any gameplay at all for the four DLC fighters, so any issues there will have to wait.
Design wise... eh. It's still yellow and black, which are her signature colors. That's about it.
What I would like to know is her story line. Does she remain the series equivalent to Starscream? Remember, she stabbed Edenia in the back twice for her own need.

Only confusion I have is basically how everyone's complaining about Tanya, if this is following the same timeline as mk9 which was basically a mk1-3 reboot, wouldn't this one fall as Post MK4/Pre-Deadly Alliance? If so, wouldn't it make sense for Tanya to be in the game as a regular character as well since she was in MK4? Unless she died in the original, but idk, that was the only one i never played

If I recall correctly, Tanya didn't die. According to the Mortal Kombat Wiki, she betrayed Edenia and helped Quan Chi and Shinnok against the Elder Gods, and, after Shinnok's fall, she fled to Outworld. She doesn't have many relationships in the timeline, is hated by Jade and tried to ambush Liu Kang, so, the only interactions she would have in the current timeline are Quan Chi and Shinnok, who may not even need her help anymore, or maybe her help is less relevant in this timeline.
EDIT: Also, I just remembered that Tanya was in MK9, she appared in one of the backgrounds, imprisoned.

although some characters that were born out of those events would disappear, for example Onaga; he was resurrected by shijenku in Deception, but it's events didn't happen in this timeline so he is still dead now.

Check the trailer. Both Liu Kang and Kung Lao are at one point controlled by Shinnok (And appear undead-ish while that happens). Liu Kang appears alive in several other parts of the video (Like while fighting) so he's probably going to go back to normal at some point in the story.

They are not returning at the same time they are possessed. Its likely that when they beat Quan Chi and Shinnok, they will release the possessed guys, or something else will. The possession took place at MK9, whenever someone dies, Quan Chi takes him/her: (http://i62.tinypic.com/qz3zvm.jpg)

Well, I'm starting to figure out how the transition from MK9 to MKX will happen (and the start of the story too): - After Raiden seemingly saved Earthrealm, Quan Chi and Shinnok attack to take control of it. - Raiden and the allied survivors, Sonya and Johnny, gather other allies (like Kenshi) to defend Earthrealm. - Raiden, Sonya and Johnny defeat Shinnok and Raiden locks him in the medallion. - Quan Chi was probably beaten before or after Shinnok and some souls he controlled (god knows why not all of them, like Jade) are released and live normally, giving birth to the new generation (Frost will also probably be involved, being trained by Sub-Zero).
I just need to figure out when Kotal Kahn enters this and when Mileena learns about the medallion.

I kinda wanted to see Zombie Liu Kang with chains returning. Would make an interesting spacing character with long ranged mechanics and crazy chain shenanigans especially in a new environment like this game. Maybe as an "EX" character?

We already have Takeda with long ranged mechanics. EX characters always suck, Cyber Sub-Zero was one of the many examples, they're just a lazy excuse to add a new version of an existing character with small ignorable changes. We don't need this, specially in a game with variations.

It'd be interesting to see an effective Zombie Kang however I really hope that concept never returns.
The only character I want is Smoke. Smoke had so much potential in MK9. I'd love to see what they'd do with him this iteration.

I must be the only one that found it weird that a Russian magazine would have the next trailer... guess that explains why I couldn't read it.
Anyway, it was confirmed before hand, but now we get official proof of Liu Kang in action and it's really not that bad. Love the fatality... gives new meaning to 'swallowing your words'.

Well, I think that the idea is to give an entirely new story to the franchise, MK9 was a reboot in the story, but it still had a lot of things from the original trilogy, now they're actually adding new things. Onaga looks quite cool, but Baraka... meh.

I saw that one during the stream.
Some news: Erron Black is indeed playable character, a brand new character that was leaked a week ago. Showed us full variations: Marksman, Gunslinger and Outlaw. His gameplay is damn awesome, though some people have complaining about his gameplay, thinking that his variations is damn awful, but i don't think so, and i don't believe those morons that thinks it's awful. He's a damn badass! And dude, his X-Ray is so goddamn badass! Shooting the bullet inside opponents skeletal parts 3 times, especially skull, is so damn brutal! (Including the name on the bullet that was putted in his trailer facing against Kung Jin, and on the stream, Kotal Kahn). His Fatality? It's a question mark for me.
For Shinnok, i have expected that to happen. His variations is Necromancer, Impostor and Amulet. For his X-Ray, i'm damn hyped and it's also brutal! Not much else to say about Shinnok being playable besides his skeletal hand (when in Necromancer variation).
And finally, but i harshly hate Liu Kang at this point. Nothing to say about him at this point. That's that for now.

Post by: Seadragon77 on March 28, 2015, 01:02:46 am
I believe you were looking for Imposter and Marksman for the two styles you missed out on kanodoom.
Erron Black is a total bad ass, plain and simple. All three styles work well for him (Marksman is his long range game, Gunslinger for mid range and Outlaw is up close and personal) and I like his look. I just don't like the fatality... I'm going to bury you in sand... wow. Um, I hope his other Fatality and his Brutalities are better then that one.
Shinnok, IMO, was long overdue for some sort of change because what Armageddon couldn't do was make Shinnok good. Now he is good and it's for the better. His Imposter style harkens back to his MK4 days when that was his only move, but at least now he has other moves he can fall back on outside of having to learn another character's move list (and even then, you only get one move in Imposter). Bone Shaker is cool, I like the bone scythe. Necromancer was OK, I guess.
Liu Kang seems to be maybe a bit too strong since they said he has some of the fastest attacks in the game. Plus, I don't know how well people are going to take with a darker Liu Kang here. His styles are alright and they fit him.

oh you're gonna hate it, he's fan girling through out the entire interview. but he did manage to ask a few good questions: 1) there will be microtransactions in the game but it's only if you're too much of a wuss to do a fatality, you can buy an easy fatality mode. 2) Goro will be released as a DLC later on and you can actually do fatality on him so he isn't an overpowered boss character. 3) the towers will be like MMO events as they will change on special occasions giving you different modes and characters to play, and there would be a DLC character tower, where you could use him all the way through it, even if you didn't buy him. so they give you the chance to taste the merch before you buy it. very cool. 4) shit about the mobile game. can't even remember it. 5) the game won't have a tag team mode because it's time consuming and there are better thing to focus on. 6) there is a faction kill which is a fatality that is unique for the factions online matches.

Hopefully his second fatality makes up for it. It's silly as hell to have him rip open their stomach, say "here's johnny" and then let em fall to the ground and that be the end of it. I still love Johnny though.

I missed the early part... They showed off Kenshi and Sonya today.
Kenshi's Variations: -Balanced (Gives him his current moveset) -Possessed (Demon replaces his telekinetic skills) -Kenjutsu (Loses the blindfold and adds in some of his moves from Deadly Alliance)
They also showed off the 'Helicopter' fatality. I think it was awesome.
Sonya's Variations: -Covert Ops (Gains a parry attack that can branch out) -Demolition (Gains grenades [Stun and Frag). Only three grenades, can be refilled via drone) -Special Forces (Gains a drone ally that can attack three ways: Short range blast, homing shot and kamikaze)
They also showed off a new stage, the Sky Temple, as well.

Heh, looks like Goro got his payback on Cage at the end of this trailer. The Shokan Prince got nut krackered then knocked off from a cliff by the latter in that 1995 MK film.
As for his variations, one shows that contains his klassic moveset of green fireball, spinning four armed clothesline and then the other utilizes some of Kintaro's moves fire breathing.

A mistake? He is probably boosting the pre-orders a lot, so, I think it was a very well planned move. Also, I don't think they'll spam Goro that much, that depends mostly on whether people will or not main him, I don't think they would take him online before trying him offline first and learning.
Last two games Goro was playable were MKA and Gamecube MKD and he sucked in both.
Well, he was a playable sub-boss, right? He was not supposed to play like the other characters.

Oh, good! So there is actually a chance for Rain to be in MKX. Tanya is using Kitana's stance and no variations in the game, meaning that she will be an NPC for those who don't buy her as DLC. That means that Rain (who is in the same situation) can become DLC later, as Ed Boon himself said that the idea of a second Kombat Pack was not discarded and people liked him enough to make him win the poll that made him DLC for MK9.

He has no variation name on his Lifebar, unlike all the fighters that appear in the story, which means he's probably NPC only :(
Well, Tanya also appear in the same way (in fact, she doesn't even have a stance for herself, she uses Kitana's) and she is DLC. Considering that Rain has his own moves and Boon said that a second Kombat Pack is possible, I think he is very likely to enter.
Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X (Last update on 02.26.15)
Post by: lui on April 06, 2015, 01:13:33 am
The DLC Tanya and NPC Tanya most likely have seperate fighter files within the game, which is why Tanya uses Kitana's stance in the campaign, that's how alot of games are that have NPC's as DLC, like Shao Kahn in MK9 or Trigon in Injustice, so it's no guarantee that Rain will be DLC. I hope he does appear as DLC though!

Kinda looks like danye in devil trigger Jax subzero and scorpion get released from quan chis control after sonya beats the crap out of quanchi...even stops on his balls lmao Baraka probably isnt in the game necause he get killed by devorah Kenshis son also has telekentic powers Kung jin is kung laos cousin Sareena and le mei are in the game just as npc for the moment Tanya rain too but i guess eveybody knows that by now

The reason why they are separate now is because Tanya is incomplete, once she is released as DLC, I bet she will be updated in story mode. Same with Rain, lets just wait, if Injustice had a second bunch of characters (even though it was just 2), MKX can have too.

I don't know if I have became a more sensitive man or they went too far with some of these fatalitys, but I think I will not perform many of those once I play the game or maybe is that now most of the characters have a nice design and a likeable personality, I feel like I don't want to make something so brutal on them XD I liked the humoristic take on Cassie Cage second fatality. NRS is doing a great job on this game. About the costumes, I am really surprised that Milenna doesn't have, until now a extemely sexy and slutty costume, I mean is not that I don't like her current costumes but if Erron Black and Johnny Cage are showing skin in their alternates. would have been nice a sexy costume(sexy at Mortal Kombat 2011 level ) for some of the girls
Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X (Last update on 02.26.15)
Post by: Macaulyn97 on April 09, 2015, 06:51:42 pm
I'm actually surprised that they are not showing that much skin on the girls, but, personally, since is something new to have less skin shown by the girls and the costumes are not bad, I don't really mind it (though Erron's alt makes him look like a stripper, unlike Johnny's alt and Goro's default, not saying this is bad either).
Also, I don't know why so many people are saying the gore is too much. The game is meant to have a lot of gore, at least they're not torture scenes, they're (relatively) quick kills. Mortal Kombat's gore evolves with each generation of games (except Mortal Kombat VS DCU), so, that is pretty much expected with the next-gen.

Because it looks more "realistic" than before, quite a difference between MK4 (a stack of polygons) and MKX (next-gen baby).
I couldn't care less about the gory finishers now, guess I've just moved past it all. Though looking back I really do miss the older fatalities; they has a weird charm to them (probably the silly presentation, with digital actor sprites and the "low-budget" look to it).

Well, the older fatalities were quite a suprise at the time the first MK was released, there weren't much games with gore. MK managed to go through controversies and become one of the most popular games. Nowadays, gore is much more common, you see that everywhere.
Also, the fatalities in MKX are slightly more gory than MK9's I don't see why people only started noticing it now.

The fatalities in MK4 (at least in concept) were quite brutal, I remember. For example, I actually prefer MK4 Quan Chi's leg tear fatality than the one he has in MK9. The animation was faster and thus it looked more sadistic, and your opponent would still yelp in pain every time you hit them, making it clear he wanted them to suffer for a while, while in MK9 he would pointlessly keep hitting a dead body at a much slower rate.

Same here. Going back through story. 1st time it was me and a friend binging on it and I missed a lot of it anyway. It's much longer than I remember LOL
While playing it this time I kept thinking it'd been cool if they had of had an "original story route" you could play in too that just went through MK1-U3 vanilla.

Also, I don't know why so many people are saying the gore is too much.
Because it looks more "realistic" than before, quite a difference between MK4 (a stack of polygons) and MKX (next-gen baby).
My thoughts exactly. No more ludicrous gibs this time. I mean, we can clearly see the character's internal organs in high definition.

Fatalities back then were more funny and ridiculous. Now it's just pure gore porn.

I think when deadly alliance came out, things started getting alil serious. It became Comical again when mk vs. dcu came out, then things REALLY started picking up when mk9 came out, and it'll just get more and more gorey. I'm not complaining though.

It was actually MK4 when they went back to the serious nature of the Fatalities. Deadly Alliance helped continue that trend. Deception did have some humorous finishers (Darrius, I'm looking at you, you Picasso wannabe). But, I feel it was at Armageddon when things went south for the finishers. I understand that it takes time to do one, but come on! At least one for each character would been better then that Kreate-A-Fatality crap and it be would light years ahead of the bull crap that MK vs. DC Universe gave us.

I always liked Scorpion's Deadly Alliance fatality. You almost feel when his spear goes through the victim's head and when he pulls it. Also his primary was probably his coolest costume I ever saw.

Deadly alliance was also the first and only game (to my knowledge) where you could play as fire skull scorpion, which was pretty damn cool. Ahhh memories. Every mk game has serious and silly elements though, it's not all seriousness, there's comic relief and dark humor in pretty much all the games. In this one, it seems like Johnny cage serves as the games comic relief character again, like he was in mk9. Also anyone ever heard of a game called thrill kill? It was a game like mortal kombat, but since It got canceled because of ESRB, I'm assuming it was more violent. I bet that game could've competed with mortal kombat if it was still around today, it looked so damn interesting.

The game played as different from Mk as possible though. The next similar thing is the Wu Tang Game by the same developers, they even used some of the Thrill Kill animations for the game I think.

So, my thoughts on it:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
- Eeer, unlike Ed Boon said, the final boss did not surpise me, and I'm pretty sure it won't surprise anyone... its very boring, in fact - Totally gonna have a sequel, Liu Kang and Kitana as main villains, hell, Liu Kang can't stop disappointing Liu Kang - I cannot say I really trusted D'Vorah, but I was a bit surprised that she would betray Kotal - Also, I expected something greater from the Kotal VS Mileena thing, besides that disgusting kiss of death, glad that is not a fatality - Besides Rain, I think Sareena has a chance of being in the Kombat Pack 2 - Raiden becomes dark again... meh - Shinnok is still alive, just... beheaded - Quan Chi still sucks at controlling his revenants, and I feel for him, since he has no balls anymore.

Time for my take after I seen it all in it's entire glory last night.
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
-Raiden gets corrupted again. Could of seen that coming, you know... at least here, the math is easy: Placed in corrupted Jinsei + Absorbing Corrupted Shinnok's power = Evil Raiden. His actions towards protecting Earthrealm is akin to how he was in Deception, which means that Outworld better watch it's back in case they want to try anything funny again. -Speaking of Outworld... Uh, just because Mileena is dead (via the creepiest make out scene in the history of ever) doesn't mean the revolution is dead. Tanya and Rain are still out there and they could lead a reborn revolution. -Liu Kang and Kitana are together... yes, it wasn't meant to be like this, but this will work as king and queen of the Netherrealm. Speaking of which... where are the others? Even more so, where was Jade? Wasn't she killed in 9 as well? Why wasn't she corrupted as well? -9 had a huge body count, and mostly on the side of the good guys. Here, the body count is much lower and the bad guys get the brunt of it as the only deaths were Baraka, Mileena, Quan Chi (BTW, he must be really weak if all it took to sever his bond to the corrupted forms was a straight kick to the nads) and Shinnok. 4 deaths in 12 chapters. Not bad... -The new heroes aren't bad at all. It's nice to see the next generation take point and get the job done. -Am I the only one that finds it funny as all hell to see Jax in farmer clothes?

Also, would 4K really be worth it or should I play the waiting game?

- Hopefully they will have some roles in MKXI. Specially because Rain, as said by D'Vorah herself, wants the throne of Outworld. - I still think that the Mysterious Woman in her ending has something to do with this. She cannot just vanish, even the lesser ones, like Kabal and Stryker appeared. - Shinnok didn't die, remember the cutscene of Dark Raiden? He said he is unkillable and that there are fates worse than death. And Shinnok's head was still "working". He isn't dead, he is a living decapitated head!

seeing as Havik has something to do with all of this I imagine he'll start more shit just like he did in the original timeline. he loves chaos so he's gotta keep the struggle going between NetherRealm/Outworld and EarthRealm.
also until Quan Chi is brought back somehow Liu Kang and the rest of the Revanants are stuck the way they are. lucky for Scorpion, Subby and Jax that they got cured of Dark Kahn...I mean Shinnok's influence.

Well, the ending may not be canon (after all, Jade did not beat Shao Kahn), however, they actually did create a character just for that. And it would be a good explanation for Jade's abscense.

I know with one of Scorpion's (Get Over Here) it said that you need have over 50% of your health and the final hit must be the EX Spear

And thats exactly what they are. Unless they make a story DLC there is no point in having these three there, after all, they had NPCs, unless, of course, they didn't have time to make all variations to the NPCs (including Tanya) and added them as NPCs to later make them playable through DLC, the roster is already solid, so it shouldn't be a problem. Later they may actually make Rain, Baraka and Sindel playable like they did with Tanya, but I wonder who else would they add... Frost? Sareena?
There is, of course, the fact that Liu Kang, Kung Lao and Kitana are all classic popular characters, but that still wouldn't justify them leaving Rain and Baraka out, Baraka is boring, but still popular and Rain was popular enough to be made DLC in MK9 by winning a poll.

I highly doubt there will be a story DLC involved here. Not to mention that Liu Kang and Kung Lao did have a part in Raiden's chapter. It was a flashback, but they had a part.
Other then that, they were the top henchmen (and woman) for Shinnok's army of undead fighters. There's not much needed here to help them storyline wise.
As for the NPC's: Frost and Sareena are good options, but that is going to have to wait and see if the first pack is even successful enough to warrant more DLC down the road. If they do a 2nd Kombat Pack, then the three you mentioned (Rain, Baraka and Sindel) are in not matter what.

I agree, especially because 2 chars are new in the saga, and one is playable with his own moves and plot. Anyway only mad me one thing and is the regular characters that become on dlc, when perfectly could be in the game...

The game itself is super fun but..
Have the digital version here, bought from the US PSN Shop.
Noth only is the game online-only and can only be plays with my psn account that bought the game I have multiple ones for multiple regions) but the game is also crashing from time to time, especially when I was playing against others online or even tried to bring up that factions screen.
I also tried out what happens when your internet connections breaks while playing a single player offline mode (Challenge tower, traditional)
...the game sends you back to the main menu meh.
Hope the crashes are freezes are fixed soon. Does anyone else have similar problems? ---

Mk9 had a bug where, if having troubles locating the "news" server when launching the game, it would freeze the game. It occured so much i had to turn off the internet before starting it and then turn it on once inside. :| So, I wouldnt put it past them.

Apparently some genius thought replicating PS4's streaming download method was a good idea and now only part of the game DLs successfully on Steam. Great job, truly raising the bar for its competition.
That said, PS4 of course uses the same DL method. That could be the reason for the crashes especially is modes are missing.

I like the extra effort put behind the controller configuration. Not only you can have 4 different presets available to you at all times but you can also activate negative edge! I wish SF had this damn option so I could deactivate it there! Grrrr...
You can also access an alternative special move input mode where commands are closer to SF and KOF (Back, Forward gets replaced by a HCF for example), and you can also tell the game to be less strict with special move inputs too.

I don't get the stupidly defensive comment but okay. It's not like it wasn't an NRS game, it didn't get a PC release and most of the audience from the previous MK game weren't drawn into the game because of similar gameplay and stuff. Oh wait.
Also "Not exploring all its options" is a freaking dumb argument, especially when Release Check messed up everyone's inputs due to the huge buffer time and it was widely known that people had to disable it.

You're based in Germany, right? MKX on PS4 is geo-fenced; you're having huge delays online because your game is trying to connect to US servers from across the Atlantic. Your US copy of the game is hard wired to connect to the US Warner Bros servers for online play, Faction data, Living Towers, leaderboards, etc., and will try to whenever you do anything that earns you XP, Faction XP or War Points. Which is pretty much after any fight.
I'm willing to bet that most people complaining about lag or online issues imported their game from overseas.

Damn! Do you always get mad so easily? Well Ok, my arguments are as stupid as your comment is. If Red had said : " oh I wished Injustice had these options" or "this is the first time a fighting game have these options". Your comment might have made sense, but he didn't said anything like that, so, what has to do here your comment about Injustice ? It Seems like a poor attempt to make somebody feel dumb and to show how much you know about videogames, like you usually do in all the topics.

I'm sure that they will be playable in a future, maybe free or dlc. Even I think with that notice will have more characters like Smoke, Sareena, Nightwolf, Kabal or even new characters that not seen in the plot like Tremor, Jade, Kintaro, Reiko, etc.

Good, keep him that way. After watching story mode, it looked like him and Cassie were locked into that "Forced romance between main character and the closest character of the opposing gender" cliché. which I hate, and he being gay completely cuts this off. Also, he is not stereotyped, what is good too.

My #1 issue with the game's story is that it seems to skip what happens immediately right after MK9, and instead plugs in a few key events of that instead, when that's probably one of the most pertinent parts of it. Almost like they didn't have time to elaborate. Also it leaves a few loose ends at the end, even without the twist ending.
And I don't know where you go the Kung Jin and Cassie forced romance from. They clashed for the most part.
edit: Forgot about the comic, I guess I should've checked that out to fully enjoy it

Some dataminers suppose that there are two more characters planned , they found files for dlc costumes that were not announced as part of the kombat pack.
I bet they are Rain and maybe Fujin. The game is awesome but all this dlc stuff sucks. Feel I should have waited till they release the komplete edition.

I've been wondering where the hell were all these new characters in the original timeline. I mean, we know that Cassie and Jacqui did not exist, but what about the others?
- Where was Kotal Kahn and why he didn't care about returning to Outworld in the original timeline, while he did so many things in this one? - Where were D'Vorah, Ferra and Torr, whom we didn't know even of the existance of the species? - Erron Black can easily be an older character, but who? And if he isn't, why the hell wasn't him in the original timeline? - What happened to Takeda and his mother in the original timeline? Were they both killed? Did Kenshi save them? What happened to them afterwards? Surely he wasn't taken to Scorpion, but he was that worthless having Kenshi's powers? - Where was Kung Jin? He is the one with less reason to not appear, he was Kung Lao's cousin, not even his son, why didn't he appear in the timeline?

1 - He was exiled to earth by his father during Shao Khan rule as shown in the comic book. 2 - D'Vorah was possibly serving Quan Chi. Ferra and Torr might as well not have been born yet. 3 - He doesn't look older than 35 or so, so he would have been 10 years old during the original timeline 4 - Takeda was born AFTER Shao Khan's defeat. MKX Story takes place 25 years after the ending of MK9 5 - Also probably not born yet or a mere child.

Kombat pack releases the characters in 2 week intervals.
I detest character DLC, too bad it's gotten to the point where it's now an accepted norm. $25 worth of it (possibly more) is a huge no-no; will wait for re-release.

Exactly. The original timeline ended at Armageddon, so there was no plan for the newer characters in this game. They never existed in that timeline.
The events of the current timeline are different and, therefore, have allowed these new characters to be introduced.

...Kung Lao, Kitana and Liu Kang stay as revenants at the end, which means their default costumes, the ones where they look older (In the case of Kang and Kung Lao) and fully human are actually not canon during the entirely of MKX.

MK9 was cringe worthy? Only issue I had was being a Raiden fan and it practically being "Raiden Screws Up: The Game". This one was... pretty good. Not super-amazing, but not bad.

I feel bad for Mileena now though with how her story ends. Which is good, used to not care for her at all.
I personally liked they included MK9's Scorpion outfit in it. Flashy as it is, Scorpion decked out in Hell armor's awesome. Granted it seems like everyone's gotten their MK9 apparel with some improvements here and there, not just Scorpion.

What exactly do people compare mortal kombat's story to? For it to be so "bad". Everywhere I look people have an issue with the story mode. It's not like the game is an RPG. What other "fighting game" has a story mode that is similar. They tried and "I" for one I am so grateful to experience that. Or is it just more like a woulda, coulda, shoulda done this to make it better? "IMO" MKX is the first next gen "fighting game(only)" so of course it's going to be under fire, but damn coming from someone who owns almost all fighting games this game does a great job of bringing something fresh to the series. Good for what is.. "opinion" over.

The story was way too damn short. Beat it within 2 days, not even two full days actually. If I would've consistently played, I wouldve beat it in like 2 hours. No Bueno! And the final fight doesn't count as adding on time because the mother blucker spammed the shit outta me. But I finally beat it. I wish they really would've made outworld purple though, it would've been unique cuz it looks a lil bit boring-ish. I fucking LOVE how they did the krypt this time around. It's like a gahdamn action/adventure game.

MK9's story was longer (Partially thanks to extra filler fights) but finishing MKX's story mode in 2 hours the first time while watching every cutscene? Yeah... no. That's not possible at all. It would take at least 5 or 6 hours for the standard player to finish it.

Is not a hard thing to do at all. You should've expected that to happen as soon as the game came out, it was a matter of just swapping files.
Sadly there's nothing interesting overall. The characters just have their MK9 moves and combos and lack x ray moves and intros-winposes. Nothing cool or unused so far.

I prefer MKX's as well. MK9 had entirely too much filler.
so basically mk9's story is based on mortal kombat, mortal kombat 2 and mortal kombat 3, while mkx's story takes place after the 9th game, also the voice acting in mkx is way better with some reprisals

just finished klassic ladder with takeda and I feel like the next game will have taven and daegon! Takeda and kenshi go find the mother/wife's killer and they meet the dragon that taven met in Armageddon and that dragon teleports kenshi and takeda to where taven was kept in that egg. They bust taven out because he also has a reason to confront the killer, and I'm assuming its daegon because... Who else? Nice little inclusion there.

Shinnok is a bitch to beat on very hard. he practically ignores everything you do and counters it. I'd say Shao Kahn on Expert in MK9 was laughable compared to Shinnok in MKX. there were many exploits to beat Shao Kahn such as simply jumping over him and using the overhead punch to start combos or using a teleporting or projectile spamming character to beat him...Shinnok....hehe he just doesn't give a shit what you do...you're royally fucked up the ass with a wooden spoon covered in sand, hot sauce and rusty nails.
I think they'll head back in the Armageddon direction again to make the point that no matter what Raiden did to change the events of the future they'd still end up at the same conclusion.

4/18 patch-- Gameplay notes Options General - Throws (regular or command grabs) will no longer sometimes connect on a grounded reacting opponent off a counter hit
Shinnok(Impostor) - He can now control the location of a stolen Goro Stomp.
Subzero(Grandmaster) - Combos on a grounded opponent frozen by the Ice Klone will now scale properly.
Takeda(Ronin) - Added a new move “Quick Kall” (Down, Towards, Front Punch) which quickly returns a dropped blade without doing an attack.
Takeda(Shirai Ryu) – He will now always teleport to the other side when doing the Air Shirai Ryu Port
3.16 GB
Added the following Character and Costumes for online compability: Jason, Pharaoh Ermac, Vampiress Mileena, Kraken Reptile, Revolution Kano, Motherland Sonya, Tundra Sub-Zero.
And Jason is playable tomorrow for the season pass buyers
Currently there are no living towers and online play in general for many users, seems the servers have problems or hey prepare something?

Yeah online is busted everywhere, even the PC version which has yet to get this patch (But got another one, go figures) has no online and we got faction mode balance fixes too, I wonder what they changed to balance the faction war?
I found out a few hours ago that changing my steam client's language to spanish changed the dub and found out this way that the game actually has a Latin American dub! Not the horrible Brazilian dub and not a Spaniard dub (Spanish from Spain, ewwwww) but an actual Latin American dub, and it's pretty damn good so far! Currently replaying story mode on hard with that dub on (More like suffering through it because the AI is damn hard on hard alone, kinda like in the old games).

Cassie's dubbing is only a small part of the problem. The text wasn't localized. They just translated it directly, without adapting it to Portuguese. A lot of stuff there doesn't make sense or sounds really bad due to that.

Some people don't bother learning english, at least not enough to understand the audio. And they don't like dividing their attention between the subtitles and the scene, so, a dubbed version works better for these people.

The same reason people bitch about subbed anime, because there are people with low attention spans who can't stand reading (or are borderline illiterate) so they require everything to be dubbed no matter how badly done it is, so rather than holding dub companies to high standards (something that even English didnt get until only a few years ago) they willingly eat up half baked slop.

That's just America. Latin America has always had bearable dub houses, and they even used to be pretty damm good for anime. The problem is that most game developers don't bother with them, they get their games ugly Spaniard Spanish dubs. For you to understand just how foreign their language is to us, try to picture the kiwi slang. From the XIX century.

Way way way more pronounced, they use completely different phrase construction with subject being in another part of the phrase. Commonspeak brazilian is also riddled with slang
"Ela me ama" (She loves me) in Brazil and "Ela ama-me" (She loves me) in Portugal.
Not to mention that Brazilian soap operas are imported in Portugal to be watched by old ladies, so it directly links with the cheapest of the entertainment here.

Jason was not supposed to be in the game until 26th of April. The cause of this must've been random during or after the online session of the gameplay ranked matches, and then the glitch of appearing Jason occurred. When you're playing a match with your friend at home and when you're done, you see him, but when you attempt to buy him however, it says that he doesn't exist. He wasn't in the shop. Then you quit out and went back to the character select screen and he was gone. What the fudge is going on with MKX today, goddamit?! BTW, on the right, it's supposed to be Tremor that will be released in May 10th, as i recall, so be sure to be on the lookout for that, but you already know that anyway. XP

Hey I've been fucking around in the Krypt lately after the latest MKX patch and have no clue if this was here or not prior to the patch, I don't know if anybody has said anything about it, so don't demolish me if it's already been brought up, but there's a gold chest that dissappears and re-appears in the "Lost Mausoleum" area of the krypt (Coordinates -1, 3) when it appears you can't interact with it, can't buy it. Nothing... not even a little message that tells you you can't interact with it. Just seems like some random fucking chest. I sprung for the krypt unlock DLC so this chest really caught my eye. Anybody else come across it?
P.S. I took a screenshot of it on the PS4 but have no clue how to get PS4 Screenshots onto my PC :S

IIRC that happens when you already unlocked its content via another means, like by finishing the klassic tower with a character (For his alt costume) or by performing the fatality before knowing its command.

Is there any other stage brutalities in-game? So far, the only one known is the Dead Woods Log/throw a log to your opponent and kill them that way. But with all of these interactables in every stage, there's at least more stage brutalities out there.

Hey I've been fucking around in the Krypt lately after the latest MKX patch and have no clue if this was here or not prior to the patch, I don't know if anybody has said anything about it, so don't demolish me if it's already been brought up, but there's a gold chest that dissappears and re-appears in the "Lost Mausoleum" area of the krypt (Coordinates -1, 3) when it appears you can't interact with it, can't buy it. Nothing... not even a little message that tells you you can't interact with it. Just seems like some random fucking chest. I sprung for the krypt unlock DLC so this chest really caught my eye. Anybody else come across it?
P.S. I took a screenshot of it on the PS4 but have no clue how to get PS4 Screenshots onto my PC :S
Those gold chests are randomly generated. If you come across one that you already unlocked then there isnt a way to interact with it. Happened to me a few times.

First off, i forgot that there was a Kombat Kast stream 10 hours ago on Twitch.tv, so here's the archive footage: http://www.twitch.tv/netherrealm/b/652783221
For those who bought season pass early, disregard the date for Jason that says 26th of April. He will be released in 5th of May, so expect that to happen. Source: http://attackofthefanboy.com/news/jason-voorhees-coming-mortal-kombat-x-early-next-month/
Issues regarding PC version, there's a goddamn things that shouldn'tve been frozen, shouldn'tve stutter, or anything else. Earlier weeks, it went fine, until the updates f***ed it over so badly. Must've got a false installment for some goddamn reason. There's a goddamn lock-up's that shouldn'tve even happening, even on character select, but also, they're supposed to walk off. What the hell is this crap?! I'm pretty sure it's in this game, they just didn't put mowfukin' code in it! Mowfukin' garbage! -_-
Here's a vid from InfiniteRetro that explains what the hell is wrong with PC version, blaming High Voltage Software for not paying attention or what they should've fixed it before they update it, dammit. -_-

After beating the games story in one sleep deprived, caffeine fueled night I have a couple things to say...
So... Quan Chi died, Shinnok got his ass kicked by a military trained teenager because that totally makes fucking sense. (To be completely honest I don't hate the Cassie Cage character, but I would have much rather seen the story end with Takeda beating Shinnok instead of Cassie. At least he's somewhat interesting.) Raiden turns badass, Liu Kang, Kung Lao, Kabal, Smoke, Kitana and Sindel didn't get back to normal, and that's it? I HAVE SO MANY GOD DAMN QUESTIONS!
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
Why are Liu Kang, Kung Lao and Kitana normal for the versus mode? Why aren't the rest of them there too? Why were Baraka, Rain & Sindel opponents in the story, but not playable in game? Where's Reiko? Why does Goro have all his arms? What happened to Noob "Bi-Han" Saibot? Why did Tanya get screen time but Tremor didn't? What happened with Sub Zero and Kotal Khan?
And one more thing... about Cassie Cage's arcade ending.

I can answer the whole hoob-Saibot thing. In the last game he got sucked up in the soulnado which if you recall back to Deception Scorpion ALMOST got ripped up in a soulnado and had it not been for the Elder Gods he would've permanently been out of MK.
My guess is Noob/Bi-Han got ripped up in the soulnado. When Bi-Han got ripped up it disturbed the soulnado and destroyed it.

I personally loved how Ed Boon tricked us into thinking that many of the characters were going to come back to life with the default costumes only to crush our hopes at the end of the story mode. I still remember that dude in this thread that kept bitching about how much he hated that the characters came back to life just because they were showcased alive previous to the release of the game, where's he now? :D

As the offspring of the "two main characters" in this game, they had to make Cassie look like a badass, which in my opinion she is and she's funny as hell too, but it'd ade more sense for someone like... Raiden or... Mate kenshi to beat shinnok. I feel you on Cassie's ending though, beating on my poor boi shujinko, I was heated as hell Bruh.

Post by: Macaulyn97 on April 24, 2015, 07:11:37 pm
We may all dislike the fact that the alive versions of Liu Kang, Kung Lao and Kitana were fake from the start, but we're forgetting one thing: remember what happened with the last character that was just an undead? Yeah, Zombie Liu Kang, it sucked, completely, a poor excuse for adding a zombie in the game because of their popularity, instead of reviving Liu Kang like happened to pretty much all the rest of the cast.
In MKX, the alive versions of the characters are pure fanservice, they knew we hate Zombie Liu Kang, and while we would probably hate less if they were just boring revenants, we would still want their normal appearence. Also... if even Scorpion, who was always a revenant got his human form, it would be REALLY unfair if the characters that made their debut alive didn't have theirs too.
Regarding Cassie VS Shinnok, well... the game should have at least explained what the fuck is that aura that protected Johnny and her. If it was actually their power, and powerful enough to resist a god, then it shouldn't simply appear out of nowhere. Also, I'm glad they finally started working on the characters' personalities, Cassie is awesome, in MK9 most of them didn't have really good ones, Kenshi actually surprised me being more humorous instead of the usual blind serious lonely samurai stereotype.
Somethings still bother me, though:
- Where the fuck is Jade, why isn't she with the other revenants? All others were there, even if only in cutscenes, but she was not. - Why didn't Tremor even make a cameo? - Will Baraka and Sindel be in the next Kombat Pack with Rain (the latter is quite obvious)? Or will they add cutscene-only characters, like Fujin, Sareena, Frost and Li Mei? - What will happen to Mileena's rebellion now she is dead? Will Rain take it over? - Who restored Goro's arms? - Who exactly is Erron Black? Considering his intro quotes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdccXUmu20g), he appears to be a little more than "just a mercenary". - What happened to Reiko and Havik? - Rain was melted in the comics, how is he alive in the game? - Is Corrupted Shinnok playable?

I've read every issue of the comics, and I do not recall Rain getting melted and even if he did, the dude is pretty much water, melting would induce him to a liquid which he can easily regenerate out of.
Cassie was a fucking dissapointment in my opinion, like I said before. I don't hate the character, but her having the final battle against OP Shinnok doesn't make sense. In MK9 Shao Kahn was hard to beat with Raiden (A FUCKING GOD), and I had to use cheap tactics to beat him. But I took out Corrupted Shinnok in like three attempts fighting normally. Cassie is not powerful enough to beat a former elder god (imo), especially not an overpowered one. She got shrekt easily by Subs & the Lin Kuei. Continuity is a bit fucked in the MK-Verse. Like I stated before I would've rather seen Takeda take out Shinnok, at least it's more believable, he's the son of a master swordsman/telekinetic, and was trained by Scorpion, c'mon can you have a cooler back story? Takeda was an all around enjoyable character minus the whole love story bullshit with Jax's daughter.
Something else... does Ermac's arcade ending confirm that Shang Tsung is not completely dead? In a fight intro with Kenshi, Kenshi tells Ermac "One of your souls is fighting for dominance". Interesting shit.
Also, in Quan Chi's MK9 ending he kills Shinnok, obviously that's not canon or else the events of MKX would've never happened. In Kenshi's MKX ending he kills Daegon, this is mosy likely not canon like Quan Chi's ending, anybody think we'll see Daegon as the next main villain in the next MK game?
ONE FINAL THING... I'm still pretty pissed about Cassie's arcade ending totally shitting all over Shujinko, I don't usually take arcade endings as canonical, but I mean her ending pretty much happens right after the events of the main story mode, so it's really give or take I guess, fuck it.

Raiden fucked shit up BUT I like this timeline because I hate Quan Chi and he got what was coming to him. He literally got his ass handed to him for all the bullshit he did...Sonya kicked his ass, Jax kicked his ass and Scorpion finally ended his ass. It was SOOOO satisfying that that asshole got the death he deserved. It was also nice to see Subby and Scorpion actually getting along for a change. It would've been even cooler to see their respective clans working together for a change.

I don't think it actually matters the difficulty between MK9 Kahn and Corrupted Shinnok, as game difficulty is not really part of the canon. Also, Liu Kang beat Shao Kahn, while Raiden needed the Elder Gods to beat him, that is proof enough that earthrealmers are strong enough to beat some of them, that considering Johnny, Cassie, Sub-Zero, and a very decent number of the cast.
Quote

Well, Jade's ending in MK9 could tie to her abscense in MKX. Maybe Shang Tsung is actually alive, we never know. But the soul fighting for dominance in Ermac is Kitana's father, it was shown in his MK9 ending that it was the strongest one, unless, of course, that is not canon.

Maybe him and Taven will play a decent part, but I think the next main villains are Liu Kang and Kitana, as they appeared in the epilogue, and maybe Raiden too. It happened to Shinnok.

Hopefully this will not happen. It would be a very bad decision from Netherrealm to just repeat that shit all over. Also... Sonya did not kick Quan Chi's ass, she kicked his dick.

I only say what I said because it seems like things are heading in the Armageddon direction. Bi-Han still becomes Noob-Saibot, Raiden still goes Dark, beyond mention of Taven, Daegon, and Rain as well. same universe and no matter what the Kombat will never end unless the realms end. The main differences I see are no dragon king due to no team up via Quan-chi/Shang Tsung as both are supposedly dead. However it depends on what endings ARE canon in the game.

Jade's MK9 still has a chance of being canon (partially, at least), as she is the only revenant to not appear in MKX. At least, that is the reason for me.

the only shitter is that in Mortal Kombat..no one is ever truly dead. they may end up skipping a game but they'll come back somehow. Besides if Quan Chi can bring people back who's to say he didn't prepare himself a new body for himself before Scorpion beheaded him? Every character has a chance at new life. Hell if the fans demanded it enough I'm sure the Dragon King AND Shujinko would make an appearance in an upcoming MK title.

Personally I think that the armageddon will occur again, with all fighters but that not mean that will finish equal like mortal kombat 9, even I think that Raiden can win and appear a new bad guy and another plot can occur. Anyway the next mortal kombat is very probably that appear the dragon king and maybe Shujinko, my question could be if some events occur again Raiden will see the future and will try to changing like mortal kombat 9?

Armageddon occured because Kahn beat Blaze,and then killed every other kombatant and just destroyed everything and became the ultimate asshole of an emperor. The Battle of Armageddon WILL happen again,and theres no way Raiden can change that,as the creation of Blaze and the "lets shove our kids in the rock" event happened waaay before he got his vision. Its just that probably this time it will be either Taven or someone else who gets the winning punch and knocks out Blaze. Hopefully not Taven as him kicking Blaze down did jackshit nothing in Konquest. I don't think Daegon will beat Blaze as Daegon is

Spoiler: Mortal Kombat lore(click to see content)
The Battle of Armageddon wasn't triggered by the creation of Blaze, but by Blaze's own volition.
His command from Delia and Argus was only to begin the Battle when the strength of the era's fighters became too great for the realms to contain. The events of MK9 and MKX have removed a lot of the original timeline's heavy hitters from the playing field (Shao Kahn destroyed, Shang Tsung disintegrated, Sindel a soulless revenant, Motaro dead, Onaga having never been revived, Shinnok stripped of his power, etc.), and a number of the powerups for regular fighters no longer occur (Scorpion is no longer a Champion of the Elder Gods, Sub Zero doesn't wield the Dragon Medallion and never sought the ancestral armor, Reptile never became the host of the Dragon King, etc.). As a result, the strength of the era's fighters is much more within the realms' control. Raiden doesn't need to stop anything; the Battle of Armageddon has no reason to take place.
Besides, Armageddon was an awful game and the more everyone just forgets about it the better.

They will, but in a way that combines Deadly Alliance, Deception and Armageddon.
You see, and SNT pointed out, most of the big figures are gone and a lot of the powers that were given in the original timeline doesn't exist here. What I think happens is that the six realms fight for ultimate control of all the realms...
-Raiden, now reverting back to his darker form, leads Earthrealm on the offensive this time around. Thanks to renewed hatred of Outworld, the thunder god looks to finish the job. -Kotal Kahn still runs Outworld, but now Outworld needs to play defense after eons of being the aggressor in Mortal Kombat lore. -Liu Kang and Kitana rule the Netherrealm and now becomes the wild card in the upcoming war. They seek an ally that can help them and their allies (the fallen heroes from MK9 who never came back to life thanks to Hanzo's moment of rage induced idiocy) and that ally is the Chaosrealm. -Speaking of which, Havik appears and will be in full force here. Using the help of the Netherealm, he seeks to create as much chaos as possible. -This, of course, sends an alert to Seido, the realm of Order. Under the command of General Hotaru, the forces of Order looks to take down Havik and his allies. -This leaves Edenia, which is all but dead in the new timeline. Yet, Tanya and Rain are still alive. They lead a new generation of Edenians into Outworld and begin their attempt to free their land from Outworld.
In all, you have two major conflicts here: Earthrealm and Edenia vs. Outworld and Netherealm and Chaosrealm vs. Seido.

I wonder if Rain and Tanya would actually side with Earthrealm, it would be interesting, but as much as I like Rain, I wouldn't trust him. Also, Seido seems too minor to actually enter this, I'd expect Havik to pretend to side with one of those and then betraying it.
Another thing I thought was... well... how many Earthrealmers will actually want to conquer Outworld? Besides Raiden?

Rain and Tanya would have an ulterior motive for entering the fight against Outworld and that would be the take it as part of a new Edenia. Not to mention that allying with Earthrealm creates a traditional 'enemy of my enemy is my friend' type of scenario.
Seido hasn't been mentioned at all. Not in the comic and not in the game. This would be the perfect time for them to get involved.
As for the last part: Well, there is Raiden and he has the Shirai Ryu to help. I would wonder how the other people who fought for Earthrealm would react to a invasion of Outworld?

Mortal Kombat is the story of Earthrealm and Outworld. Anything else is just additional unnecessary bloat. Especially Seido and the Chaosrealm, they were only there to justify the new Deception characters, which are amongst the worst the franchise has seen. If we never hear about those two realms again I wouldn't bat an eyelid.

The question I want to know the answer to most is when the hell are we getting the best and most importat character, Mokap?
The Battle of Armageddon WILL happen again,and theres no way Raiden can change that,as the creation of Blaze and the "lets shove our kids in the rock" event happened waaay before he got his vision.
Spoiler: Mortal Kombat lore(click to see content)
The Battle of Armageddon wasn't triggered by the creation of Blaze, but by Blaze's own volition.
His command from Delia and Argus was only to begin the Battle when the strength of the era's fighters became too great for the realms to contain. The events of MK9 and MKX have removed a lot of the original timeline's heavy hitters from the playing field (Shao Kahn destroyed, Shang Tsung disintegrated, Sindel a soulless revenant, Motaro dead, Onaga having never been revived, Shinnok stripped of his power, etc.), and a number of the powerups for regular fighters no longer occur (Scorpion is no longer a Champion of the Elder Gods, Sub Zero doesn't wield the Dragon Medallion and never sought the ancestral armor, Reptile never became the host of the Dragon King, etc.). As a result, the strength of the era's fighters is much more within the realms' control. Raiden doesn't need to stop anything; the Battle of Armageddon has no reason to take place.
Besides, Armageddon was an awful game and the more everyone just forgets about it the better.
Oh thanks,I was unaware of the role Blaze played.I thought he was only a sacrifical lamb. While Armageddon is a horrible game I do think the concept of a big war starting between MK characters is pretty hype.

Is it just me, or Liu Kang is an arrogant jerk now? I was taking a look at his quotes, and he constantly attempts to humiliate others or claim himself better than anyone. I even find out he is homophobic in one of Kung Jin's intros with him. C'mon, they can't ruin Liu Kang like that!
EDIT: By the way Cassie: Don't speak to me. Ever. Jacqui: I just said your dad is kinda hot... Cassie: STOP IT!!!

Well, to be fair has was a two time champion of Mortal Kombat. He is confident in his own skills...Remember, he became ruler of the Netherrealm at the end of the story. That means something if he can take over Hell after Shinnok became a head to be placed on the nearest pike.
As for his intro with Kung Jin: I didn't see it as homophobic because if it wasn't for that scene in his chapter in the story and someone on the staff mentioning on Twitter that people had a good eye, we would of never knew that Kung Jin was gay. For all anyone knew, he could of talked about how he was a thief. If he was homophobic, it probably would of been more blatant considering Liu's newly found confidence.
BTW, anything Johnny and Cassie Cage does in the intro is solid gold.

I don't think kobra will be making a return because apparently erron black killed him. Also, boon makes me laugh and Pisses me off sometimes lmao. In Cassie's second fatality in the little comments, sometimes boons account wil pop up and it'll say "has anybody unlocked fujin yet?" Gahdamn troll.

the MK continuity is always fucked up. no matter what AT SOME POINT Armageddon will happen. There are new powers and you never know where NetherRealm Studios will go with the story. In Kitana's MKX ending she sees a vision of herself surviving Armageddon and uniting the Realms against Shao Kahn and winning..after which there is total peace for the realms. However Raiden fucked the timeline up so bad the killing never stops.

Most of Liu Kang's quotes are shared with his revenant version so it's not like it's his normal self talking all the time. He barely has any normal quotes to begin with, if any. He would definitely not be that much of an asshole if he were brought back to life.

Because they're a paper magazine fighting for attention in an age no one in their market buys paper magazines.
Not what I meant... I mean why did they give the game such a low score? Was it the in-game money crap? Was it the laggy online play? Was it too violent for their feeble minds??

Still doesn't answer my question though. Why did they give it a 5 when most other reviewers out there are giving this game 8's and 9's?
Because they felt the game wasn't up to scratch and the classic 6-10 scale of rating most reviewers do didn't appeal to them? Go ask them if you want definite answers, because all we can do is speculate.

OK, I get it. They just want to create shock and awe by giving a game a low score. Not the first time that's been done in print, mind you.
Now, on to the game itself: Isn't Jason coming out some time soon? Because if I remember correctly, most of the DLC will be out by the time the PS3 and 360 version come out on June 2nd.

Now i got one complaint: I noticed that his eyes is putted normal than what it should've been in the consistent Friday The 13th movies. His right eye (viewer's left) would've moved a bit downward, while his left eye (viewer's right) would move a tiny bit upward to be more appropriate, yet the NetherRealm studios didn't bother to change/modify his eyes cosmetically. His face would've been deformed like in the movies, goddamit. -_-
No doubt people will complain about Jason when he's moving that he can't be flinched when it comes to projectiles, among other things, as shown in the vid trailer. Though i'm damn certain that he won't talk at all during intro dialogue interaction, but you'll only hear his SFX like this "Ch ch ch... Ha ha ha...". He won't talk anything back when his opponent says anything first.
Again, people will complain that Jason is too OP that he can't be flinched when there's a projectile, but f**k that s**t. We'll soon find out.

Maybe he has a shield similar to Jade's? Instead of ignoring the projectiles, he doesn't flinch when hit?
Anyway, I think Jason was a very poor choice of a character. I mean, yeah, when he does what he does in the movies its meant to be horrifying, but in Mortal Kombat, he is just doing common things. He doesn't even have any powers, unlike Freddy and Predator.

Yeah, but, its not like it will make him stand out. Its nothing original like the others I mentioned.
Yet you can't kill him. That is the defining trait of Jason Voorhees. No matter what you do, he will come back and kill you. You can even throw his ass into the infinite void of space (like in Jason X... god, what a cheesy ass movie!) and he will still come back and kill you.
He is as close to immortal as a mortal can be.. and that is a bit original, I guess.

You misunderstand me. I don't mean by Jason in the movie or in his story, I meant about his gameplay. He can't have as many original moves in gameplay as Freddy and Predator can have.

His unmasked look is not consistent in the movies, the only thing that is consistent is that he has some kind of deformation but even that was changed from time to time, and sometimes his eyes are almost normal, I think the First time was in part 3, but I would have to look it up to be sure.

I think i know what you're trying to say, but his deformed face and eyes should've been always like in every consecutive Friday The 13th movies, not in this game, which i find it stupid, but that may not be changed cosmetically. Like i said before, his right eye (viewer's left) would've moved a bit downward, while his left eye (viewer's right) would move a tiny bit upward to be more appropriate, yet the NetherRealm studios didn't bother to change/modify his eyes cosmetically.

Unstoppable: - Whatever meter Jason has is converted into HEALTH upon death at the end of 'round' (Hi Phoenix). - Gains access to temporary HEALING buff. - Gains access to temporary DAMAGE buff.
Slasher: - Gains access to classic MACHETE weapon. Yes, it can be thrown. Hits mid, decent speed. - Gains access to unique Slasher specific Kombos. - Gains access to temporary ARMOR buff. When ARMOR is up Jason can NOT jump, & when it runs out he's stunned briefly & can be hit.
Relentless: - Gains access to TELEPORT. It's very punishable if read. EX version is SAFE! :) - Gains access to AUTO DEBUFF. Screen turns red, opponents INPUTS get REVERSED, they also can't DASH or RUN. - Gains access to the same ARMOR buff as (Slasher) along with pro's & con's.
P.S. Yes, the buffs STACK. And MACHETE gives Jason damn good range!

Finally, i'm glad that i didn't bought the PC version, cause if i did, then i'd be utterly mad for that. Is there still a bug in the PC version though? Correct me if i'm wrong, but i thought it's not fixed yet.
Also, here's a intro dialogues from Jason for each fighters, though it is so generic that no other kombatants can speak personally in front of Jason.
The only thing that i like the intro dialogue is Shinnok, who apparently knows Jason, and called his name for specific reason. The rest? I don't even know what else to say about it, dammit.

Jason feels overpowered in a way. I was watching uncagedgames play as him online, and he did more than normal damage, but it looked like he easily takes damage too. Overall, I like Jason though, he's not better or worst than I expected, but he's definitely well made, and Im maiming the slasher variation. His first fatality is so funny, I love how they reference the movies with the characters expressions, it makes me laugh everytime!

the repair fix just came online a while ago, although it does add Jason there is complaints of lag on the menus and more stages being broken
think it's time NRS dumps HVS and finds somebody else to port this game to PC properly

We've discussed that & a few other "klassics" returning. We'll see.
Since everyone knows the upcoming klassic costumes, he is probably hinting kharacters. Rain, Baraka and Sindel made their debuts in the original trilogy, so, they're likely the ones to come. I still wonder why did they chose Sindel though... she doesn't seem like she will play a major role.
Also, could the 4th character to come with these be an entirely new character? Or, maybe, Corrupted Shinnok?

We already knew those 3 will appear in that pack soon since Tanya was also revealed story NPC instead of DLC. i could have hope Story Mode got updated too once its Komplete.
Speaking of DLC, some character model parts needs patch: *Mileena's middle mouth lip fix, such as when getting killed by Scorpy's f***ed face Fatality. *Headgear (count for Variation style(s) only headgear) on some characters removable when some of their head part getting cut off by some characters' fatalities. Look at Scorpion for example, also Sub-Zero (not counted Grandmaster costume and Unbreakable variation) and Variation(s) only Masked Reptile for example
Oh i just realize beneath Revenant Scorpy's mask, its weird and why his lower half of face looks normal all the sudden, instead of just a lower skull half one? Is it look like an undergone facial change like Mileena?
These. Scopy is the main example:
Attached Headgear on some characters (Not included Variation only headgeared Mileena, Reptile, Kitana and Goro) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbCN7DZqDig
On Mileena's f***ed face mouth, i can see her middle tooth over there http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcRJURHBMNQ

Post by: Seadragon77 on May 11, 2015, 04:26:09 am
Agreed. There's nothing about a Cyber Noob out there.
But, enough on the PC problem... I've been thinking.
Remember Jade not being part of the undead alongside the others? Well, here's my theory...
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
Remember MK9 and her arcade ending? Well, the woman in white appears and took over her body. She died thanks to Sindel in her one woman rampage late in the story. Quan Chi managed to get her soul and have her be part of his undead army. Yet, Jade doesn't appear with the army at all. What gives?
Well, let's look at Kenshi's ending. Suchin (Kenshi's lover and Takeda's mother) was killed by the head of the Red Dragon Daegon. Remember this storyline from Armageddon? No... don't blame you for that. Anyway, it mentions that Daegon killed his parents (Argus and Delia). It has me thinking...
The woman in white... is none other then Delia's spirit. The spirit has been around for ages and spoke to her with an air of 'regal authority' Well, she was married to a god. She also mentioned that the events needed to be changed. Delia has been known for her visions.... maybe one of those involved Shao Kahn not being killed by her hand.
Delia's spirit has to be strong enough to counteract whatever Quan Chi has, and it is. This explains why Jade wasn't with the undead army in this game.
This means that Jade (or the spirit of Delia that is possessing her) might have a larger role in the possible sequel to come.

It's as much of MK3 reptile they can give you when most of his animations (HIS SELECT ANIM EVEN) has him do shit like his mask open and he slashes his tongue everywhere. But this also means MK3 Ermac will also have the bad skin. and look falling apart.

Well, I guess that makes sense, but I doubt they'll do it with ermac, Reptile had to look like a Reptile so obviously they had to use the lizard skin, but with Ermac they just need to use something like Klassic Sub-Zero's model, color it Red and make his eyes green since his skin doesn't fall off during gameplay obviously :v

This is clearly a MK2 Liu Kang... how did NRS fuck that up?
Looks like a mix between them but it's more MK1 than MK2. The only thing that's MK2-ish is him having a headband and his hair not being 100% accurate to MK1, other than that he's clearly his MK1 self. I guess we'll see how close he looks like to MK1 Kang once he's out (So we can see if he has white shoes).

Kintaro looks more and more like a furry. Anyway, I think Havik or Reiko will end up being the 4th character of the Second Kombat Pack (at least from my comic predictions). Reiko and Havik seem to play a very big role in the comics, but Havik can be kept from appearing until MKXI to play an even bigger role when seeking the Cage family's power to resist an Elder God, alongside Skarlet and even other allies, and Reiko... well... I'm pretty sure he will die, as he wasn't even mentioned in the game, but Rain actually looked like he died anyway, so, who cares about death? Skarlet could appear too... maybe hinting one thing or another about MKXI in her lines once she is released, since she is an ally of the possible main/key villain.

Post by: rednavi -RETIRED on May 19, 2015, 07:17:16 pm
Are you also banning one of Ermac's variations? NRS fixed one variation but there's another that now has a glitch where he can completely drain the opponent's powerbar in a matter of seconds.
Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X (Last update on 02.26.15)
Post by: SNT on May 19, 2015, 07:30:33 pm
There's also the small matter of Ermac not being able to land another attack after hitting that, else it'll stop working. In a game where 35-40% combos without meter are a norm, it's not that big a deal. At least not as big a deal as free stock of meter on wakeup, or off one special. Nonetheless, it'll be something we have to talk about later today with the other TOs.
EDIT: Turns out it's also wakeup hat throw that gives Kung Lao free meter. He's getting banned.
Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X (Last update on 02.26.15)
Post by: rednavi -RETIRED on May 19, 2015, 07:35:27 pm
Not a big deal? The draining is faster the longer the combo was before using that particular EX move. All you have to do after that is block and/or avoid hit for around 5 seconds to completely waste your opponent's powerbar.
Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X (Last update on 02.26.15)
Post by: SNT on May 19, 2015, 07:52:12 pm
Five seconds? The example I found took at least twelve to drain one stock, let alone three.
Also, no need to panic, it's getting hotfixed today (http://shoryuken.com/2015/05/19/mortal-kombat-xs-kung-lao-builds-quick-meter-with-newly-discovered-glitch/). Kung Lao's not, though.
Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X (Last update on 02.26.15)
Post by: rednavi -RETIRED on May 19, 2015, 08:11:47 pm
12 secs to drain one is the default, when you hit it outside of a combo. It's FAR faster if you use the EX move as a combo ender but meh, it's getting fixed so whatever. They should be able to fix Kung Lao in a day too but no idea how console patching works like.
This makes you think how amazing the PC version could've been like, with the instant patching but NOPE, gotta give it to HVS. We're not even getting a patch until Tanya comes out >_>

Ed Boon says that Frost is behind Rain, Kabal, Chrome (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQnbi_nozAc) and Baraka on the line to enter MKX. Could this be a hint to the Story pack? They are 4 characters, right? My thoughts:
- Rain - With so many people asking for him, he is probably the first on the line. - Kabal - WHAT? Of all the characters to enter, why would it be him? I know he has a good number of fans, but leave poor Sindel out to be the only NPC that appears in a fight to never be playable? - Chrome/Khrome - Okay, so, in the video I posted, it shows that this guy, Khrome, is a character that was actually supposed to be a Smoke statue, but was done wrong. Apparently, people already gave him powers, saying that he can shapeshift himself or shapeshift parts of his body into metal parts, thats quite cool, another one for the Lost Kharacters. Well, Skarlet and Ermac did enter the franchise, you never know, specially when an actual character is behind him... - Baraka - Well... this boring thing is still a fan favorite, right?

Would you be surprised? If Tremor entered, nothing else surprises me, specially considering many other things that happened before. Boon not being able to confirm or deconfirm Rain or a 2nd Pack (after all, if he wasn't going to add these, why would he bother making such a drama over it? I'm pretty sure Jason and Predator already have people hyped enough for NRS to just want more), the addition of other "Lost Kharacters", Rain, Baraka and even Kabal be requested a lot by fans. How many times did he tease Tremor? No one believed that until he was finally announced.

Lets just wait, then. I'm still sure that at least Rain and Baraka will be in. Anyway, I found some news about the Mysterious Woman (seriously, we should find a nickname for her).
(http://i61.tinypic.com/2rngfpg.jpg) Well, Brian Chard, who worked on MK9 and Injustice (not sure if he did on MKX) said that Mysterious Woman appeared in Kitana's Ending in MKX.
Well, yeah, we saw something that could be her: (http://i57.tinypic.com/jsf3ih.jpg)
If that is true (after all, its not any random person that is saying, right?) then Kitana's ending in MKX can be partially canon as well as Jade's MK9 ending. And she may actually appear later, since she already has control over Jade's body, and now that Kitana will likely play a bigger role as Queen of the Netherrealm, she ended up in a similar way than her Arcade ending, "Jade" could be there too.
EDIT: Just found a video that shows some images of Tanya fighting, Kano and Sonya's classic costumes and the names of Johnny and Liu Kang's brazilian costumes (Soccer and Capoeira, respectively)
And a site that spoils what appear to be the intro quotes for all DLCs of the First Pack: http://www.trmk.org/forums/showthread.php/32670-SPOILER-DLC-Characters-Ladder-Endings-amp-Dialogue-Intros

Just ignore him. For the love of God, i wish everyone could just ignore him everywhere.
I do. Anyhow... Sort of excited. The Tanya update comes around the same time the PS3 and 360 versions are supposed to come out (I say supposed because I've seen scuttlebutt on other sites saying that June 2nd isn't the release date for the last gen versions, but sometime this summer... if that's the case, I'm not going to be happy about it).

I would recommend both of you to just wait till 2016 anyway when there will be the Komplete Edition for maybe 40 bucks.
Saves you money, while there are more than enough nice games to enjoy right now. Don't miss out MKX completely though, its a great fighting game, personally my favourite one since TTT2 in September 2012. Would recommend to get the PS4 version, the lastgen versions will most likely not look very good and the most people switched or are switching to current gen now that waves of nice games like Witcher 3 are arriving.

That's the thing, Red... I don't have many friends to do local games, so online is going to be, for me, the way to go.
At this point, I wonder who's behind the damn delays? Is High Voltage that freaking inept, or does WB Games want people to buy the current gen versions so they can make the last gen versions a total afterthought?

The PC ports of MK 9 and MK X are a MAJOR mess. And guess whose hand is behind those...

There is very little that is really satisfying about next-gen right now, at least on PlayStation 4. Since some games are still being made for last-gen, why would people who don't want to waste money (or don't have money) buy these consoles? Personally, there are so many PlayStation 3 games I still want to play that I'd rather buy a Wii U instead of a PlayStation 4, because of the many exclusives.

For me, getting a PS4 would continue what I've been doing. I've been loyal to the PS brand since the beginning... so why not stay loyal.
Not to mention that I can also 'share' my gaming moments on the internet (I think you can put it on YouTube, right?) for everyone to either stare in total awe or just laugh at my misery.
I'm not sure what I would get for everything I have, but it would be a great down payment on a PS4.

You guys must be quick and be on the right time when someone (especially producers from other gaming company like NRS) announces that they will do the stream. Understand that. I'm not doing that sh it anymore, so you guys must do it if you have opportunity to do so, though i doubt anyone will be willing to listen to me at this point.
Tonight (us Europeans and British peeps), we'll watch Tanya's gameplay stream, so expect that to happen at some point and i'll post the link from NRS Twitch stream. Period.

From what i have saw on the stream, i don't even know if she plays good or not, but judge for yourselves if you like her or not, though her stance looks a bit similar to Jason, and only moves normally than what Jason stance's would look like. However, i still don't know if its good or not, but by tomorrow, we'll play as her for those who owns Kombat Pack week early starting 2nd of June. Week later, a standalone release will come up in 9th of June. Funny thing is i have saw during the gameplay stream of Tanya that either Derek, Tyler or Kyle was doing a teabag on the opponent (NO, not talking about you, guys or anyone else in this forum. It's disrespectful to do that, especially in online session to do teabagging on your opponent online.). It's funny, but at the same time, not funny, cause i don't find that funny at all. Now for her fatalities... i don't know... Judge for yourselves. I only saw 1, perhaps 2 brutalities, but i didn't pay a little attention when i was watching the stream, but oh well, guess we'll find out once she's released. PS: @-Red- Have you found the Chapter #22 from MKX comics? I have to see it since i haven't seen one comin'. Thank you.

I don't think you may be able to realize this, but Rain is voiced by Andrew Bowen (known most for his appearances on the sketch comedy series MADtv), who also voiced for both Johnny Cage and Smoke (briefly in the story mode), while Baraka is voiced by Greg Eagles, who also voiced Jax in MKX as well.

There's probably a reason behind Tanya's change lore-wise that's not explained for now (And probably never, unless the comics are nice enough to touch on that). That and no one's going to render those cinematics with her new look again just because of a few changes.

You know, I'm starting to dislike this. There is a whole plot that was not even mentioned in the game! This whole thing of the kamidogu, that cursed dagger, Reiko and Havik's involvement, all that deseved at least some mention!

Yeah, but at least he doesn't have a fighting style, so it makes sense for him to just stand there. Tanya, on the other hand, not only has a stance which doesn't seem like a fighting style, but also its exactly like his. It wouldn't be so bad if she remained with the Kitana stance, like in the story.

At least it would be a fighting stance, and the one she had by default. I didn't say it would be good, but having Jason's stance, specially right after his release, is much worse.

Yes Lord M, they created an entire series of animations just for her. All the basic attacks, special attacks, fatalities and system animations like during idle and whatnot; yet they gave her Jason's standing animation 1:1, copy pasted. You're right, these NRS guys are totally lazy.

Some may call it lazy, but I see it as recycling. Netherealm has done that for years when they did the sprites for the early MK games.
But, why in the hell would anyone complain about fighting stance here? That's awful nitpicky there.
There are a lot of animations from Injustice that were recycled and used again in MKX. Kinda funny to complain about Tanya's standing animation when that's not one of the recycled ones.

Nothing, he's trying to start something. Lord M, you nitpick too much, will a stance really kill a game for you even though the stance isnt recycled and that we only spend like 5 seconds a match looking at it because the fighters are always? Will the inclusion of an OPTIONAL shortcut that you could easily ignore yet complain about anyways make you despise the game so much? Geez dude, you should stop looking at the little things and enjoy the big picture.

Very simple, really, they complained about something that they won't touch and will not affect the game in gameplay or aestethics unless they allow it too. My complain, on the other hand, does affect the game's aestethics, which is an important aspect of the game, regardless of being or not the most important aspect. The stance is clearly the same, and its lazy, no matter what anyone says.
@luisdude1 I have all the right to complain about the game in any form, because I'm part of the people who gives money to the company who makes it.

So NRS, with all the content they put in this game, and all the effort they put into making the characters the most unique they've ever been, are being accused of laziness because two characters 'share' a standing pose.
When did being reasonable become a foreign language, did I miss something?

Nope, not the same, Tanya looks more "menacing" in,some way and Jason is standing in a similar way but in a more relaxed and imposing (imponente?)way, like that kind of dudes that scare you even if they are not doing anything, Jason looks passive, Tanya looks agressive IMO
Lord M, did you have the game?
I found it hard to believe that you think NRS made all new animations for Tanya, punches, kicks, jumps, gethits, 3 modes, color variations etc etc but they decide to just copy-paste the most important thing on a character, the standing animation...

The only difference i see is the way the body structure is built in the model with Tanya being a female and Jason being male and Jason is a little tilted towards the screen because how broad his shoulders look compared to how narrow Tanya is other than that the stance is still pretty much the same.

Was playing koth survival trying to unlock Hot Shot Johnny(which I did thanks to a buddy I helped unlocked it for him too) and I started a match in this palette. Next match he went back to normal. I hoooope it's an actually hidden palette that you have to hold buttons for every match or something and not just a glitch. But 99% sure it was just a glitch.

Those are nice, i really like the Takeda one. I've always enjoyed his stylish fighting style since the first time i seen him in mkx. I just didn't care to use him though lol I've seen someone do a 54% on me using Quan Chi online but the combo you did was nice too. He was #2 ranked person in the world on XB1 at the time if anyone was curious to know how he land that shit off online besides us having decent connection with each other.
Ive done two 40% corner combos with Liu Kang (Dragons Fire) Variation. Both same but different enders. 44% xray combo with Tanya (Dragon Naginata)varation. 51% xray combo with Jason (Unstoppable) variation. 52% xray combo with Jacqui (Full Auto)variation. 47% xray combo with Sonya (Convert Ops)variation. I know she can do 50% i don't got time to try and run cancel or use her counter often.
I made a combo video for Liu Kang and i will never do that again lol. It took forever thats why you see i mostly did xray combos.

If High Voltage was taking care of the last-gen versions, I guess that explains the delay. Is this studio that bad?
I wouldn't be willing to say that is very bad. And no, it's not "Studio" cause everybody keeps referring it as studio by mistake, it's High Voltage Software, duh, but whatev's. Although that i already said that HVS made a good port of MK9 and Injustice for PC, i'd say that, releasing the PC version of MKX by HVS is utterly bad choice, because they're incompetent of what they're even thinking they're doing. I've said this before and i'll say it again: f**k HVS for releasing the bad release of PC version of MKX, but at least Q-Loc studio (Polish video game studios), who ported the PC version of DmC: Devil May Cry and USFIV, has stepped in and will be taking care of PC version of MKX of what HVS made a bad work for this particular matter. For me, i don't care about PS3/XB360, but they will not have a same problem as the PC version had before, so i assume that Q-Loc will be doing an ok job to that PS3/XB360 version. At least that's what i've understood.

He got one of his arms blasted off by the Predator (the right one), which was holding a HK94A3. He pulled the other one with his left arm, proceeded to shoot at the Predator but ended impaled by the Predator's iron claws. From the stills in that imgur link, that will be his fatality. Even Kano's face is the same Carl Weathers did when he got his right arm blasted off.

nope, you just need to give him a little chance to do it, most of the time (and I think I'm pretty good) he can do a + 60% combo... and I don't think you need to be a bad player to be hit by that, he goes the way of pressure, hitting standing and crouching and once he hits you... well, more than 60% gone... and I'm talking about the mode when he increase his damage... he switched back to the "de rodillas" one (don't know the name) and he can still make another combo about 60%

Your timing has to be exactly right after the Hk to hit Stun Grenade and all you need is to make sure you have full stock of grenades on you. I tried it with out X-Ray and she does 44% without doing a Jump+Hp, Air Dive Kick first.
Edit: she does 47% with Jump+Hp, Air Dive Kick ... actually the jump Hp doesn't count all you need is Divekick for 47%

I already knew about that combo (It's been there since day 0 I think). For that combo you need 3 bars, sacrifice 10% of your HP, enemy must be cornered, you must raise the totem that increases your damage AND perform the combo as soon as possible before the effect of both damage buffs wear off.
I don't think you'll be able to pull off that combo in a match at all unless you're extremely lucky and your opponent somehow allows you to trigger BOTH damage increasing special moves and doesn't punish you during them You have to trigger these close to each other, otherwise the effect of one will wear off during the combo.
This is one of the variants uploaded on April: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJcVPH4rVJc
I have no idea how can anyone eat that combo in a match unless the opponent is blind or something, that's why I called the whole setup behind that combo ridiculous. 60% combos are totally possible mid match though, I was mostly talking about the 90% one.
Not sure if he needs a nerf considering how exposed you are during any of the damage buffing moves (And one of them removes 10% of your HP to begin with). You won't see any crazy combos like these in real high level matches because of how exposed you are during buffs. Activating one could cost you the entire round.

guys, while i was playing mortal kombat x, i noticed something that klassic fatalities return, even sonya's kiss of death and johnny cage's decap return, also scorpion's toasty and sub-zero's spine rip make a return again as well, as it turns out, we have to wait until predator's released in order for this to happen

And believe me, it's not that hard... just make a combo, raise the totem and do a combo again, the totm raises when you are falling so Kotal can wait for your recoovery or simply make pressure, there's no problem if you are blocking, the key there is to select the correct combo to unblock the opponent and that's all, it's not that hard because like I say there's a few ways to do some variations to make pressure, and maybe you will not be able to do a 90% combo, but a 50% at least is a sure thing (with 1 or 2 bars iirc)

did you made those fatalities or where made by the cpu? saw them online or internet sites?

Thing I don't get is. Ermac betrays Mileena for Kotal alongside D'Vorah right as Kotal is chosen as the next Khanum. Why is he sided with Mileena in the comics which are clearly after that flashback in the game. That's a clear inconsistency.

I'm aware that someone said that Predator was supposed to be released at the end of June, yet for some reason, it needed to be delayed to put up some extra time to polish things for Predator until he's released in the beginning of July. It makes sense that delay needs more time to polish things up, but some peeps don't like delayment. Oh well, it's their choice. XP
And that "Ugly Mofo" for Pred is meant for the reference from The Predator's movie when Dutch said "You're one... Ugly motherfucker.". Pretty hilarious to bring that up when Erron does the X-Ray move with the bullets name on it to Pred, i'll be honest. XD

Link from NetherRealm's twitch stream is removed and over, though you can still watch it on the archive.
Well, to sum things up, i don't get why anyone is complainin' about Pred, sayin' that he's too OP, which i wouldn't be willing to say that, considering that he may be a character to be in MKX, but he's not an OP character at all. So... The first thing i have saw is that, i've noticed that MKX developers used Xbox One instead of PS4, which, to me, it's kinda odd to change the console preferences for any particular reason, but enough of that. What i was trying to say is, the first thing that i saw is, always a first one, Fatalities, which, to be honest, the 1st fatality is, Pred stabbing his chest/stomach, then draws out his smart disc and shove the opponents forehead, is kinda bland to me, yet it's disappointing, but the 2nd fatality is good based on Al Dillon's death in '87 movie, which has not disappointed us at all during Pred's mirror match. Also, i saw the Brutality from Pred, he putted the mines on the opponent, and got skinned alive (pun intended), which it is referred as "Skinned Alive", and man, i have no idea how would've that worked out, but it's damn good of course! From Johnny Cage and Sub-Zero's classic fatality, they purposely did a MK1 style camera to do it, which i don't know how can i say about it. At least Sub-Zero's classic fatality, he ripped Scorp's head off, while Cage punched the fuck out of opponents to land it on the ground. XP And hey, at least Johnny got the Commando skin, while Jax got the skin voice change as Carl Weathers, but the Infrared Scorp is just ugly, not convincing to me, and that could hurt your eyes if you play as or fight against him, so fuck that Infrared Scorp. OH! And another thing: Kold War Scorpion, available exclusively on GameStop pre-order, will now be free skin update patch just for that, since we all wanted Kold War themed skin pack, but i think that's about it. Those Prey Skin pack, alongside Kold War Scorpion and classic fatalities for Subby, Scorp, Johnny & Sonya will be coming up by tomorrow, while for other territories will be out for a few days. That's much information i can gather for. What are you thoughts on that, huh, peeps?! Vibe it off in this section.

It isn't actually a bug at all, nor limited offer, because Kold War Scorpion was a pre-order exclusive on GameStop. You shoulda overlooked it at the time when it was not released around April yet.

Mortal Kombat X got a 18 Rating in Germany, I'm still surprised about this. Ö_Ö
Quote
German censorship of games as well as movies has ben strict in the past, but has also gone through a phase of being more liberal. One victim of censorship though has been Mortal Kombat X, which up until now it seemed not available for sale in the country.
Some good news for German fans though, Mediabiz.de has reported that the game has managed to get an “Ab 18” rating, which means while the game is not suitable for children it can still be released.
While this gives permission for the game to hit the stores, it is too soon to know when the game will actually be available. We’ll have to wait for Warner Bros. Entertainment to officially reveal when this will happen.
With the game going through the process to be rated for this normally means that there are plans to try and get it available soon, so there are likely to be details appearing on retail sites for pre-orders and I’m sure news sites will be looking for any sign of this taking place.
Mortal Kombat X has proven to be a popular release, bringing Mortal Kombat back to what it does best. Although the PC version had problems on its release for the most part the console version was well received and has a sizable online community fighting it out to show who the best fighter is.
Notable for its brutal matches and bloody fatalities, it often courts controversy in countries all over the world, not just Germany.
Are you happy to see Germany finally get Mortal Kombat X? Let us know your thoughts on the release below.
a child of someone like you would do a lot of nastier shit behind your back. this game is just too over the top that it wouldn't really scare a kid.
? What a nonsense. At least that you know Yaret in person, that logic doesn't make sense. And there is a reason for not letting kids playing games like this, and the reason is not for avoid to scare them, is cause they tend to imitate the things that they see.

KISS. MY. ASS. for two things. a) you brought a up a story from Foxnews, those are worse than Polygon and Kotaku combined. blaming murder on games is something they will never cease to do. and b) the kid was 18 years old which means he's in the appropriate age for the game and he was obviously old enough to know what he was doing, and he still did it. he hit his little sister and got her killed, no game will ever make someone do a thing like that.
this bullshit about "games make kids violent" fucking enrages me beyond belief, because it's starting to become an excuse for shit parenting to hide behind. get off your ass and raise your kids. watch them, understand them, punish them when they make mistakes, and most importantly educate them about the world. good morals aren't enough, pour your life experience on them. a kid won't become violent just when watches fictional violence, not if he was told before hand that it wasn't real and should never be tried in real life. he will become violent when dumbass parents shuts him out and doesn't educate him about life. then and only then he will get influenced by whatever he listens to/watch/play. and oh yes please explain to me what games where those two boys where playing to do what they did.

Kitana's klassic fatality is not the Kiss of Death? What the fuck!?
All four of them are shitty picks really. Kung Lao could've had the whirlwind one from MK3, Jax could've had his headclap, and Mileena shouldn't have been picked for one to start with because her MKX fatalities are the best she's ever had and anything else is superfluous.

Post by: Zemilia on July 18, 2015, 11:32:04 pm
Idk, Kung Lao's was pretty memorable (and as gory as it is than his MK3 fatalities). Other than that, Jax's is blah, though I find the opponent still standing up after their arms are ripped off funny. Kitana's.. boring, and Mileena's pretty funny (though outclasses her MK2 fatality by a bit, since that one just shows bones while this one shows gore).
I'm still considering Scorpion's Klassic fatality in MK9 better than what's shown in MKX, since MK9 had the opponent slowly turn into molten flesh/skeleton (complete with showing them burning alive and screaming), while MKX just turns them into skeletons in an instant.

You guys are missing the point. The klassic fatalities are grouped by their game of origin. First pack had MK1 fatalities for MK1 characters, this second pack has MK2 ones for MK2 characters, that's why you can't have Kung Lao's MK3 fatality for example.
Mileena also has a 4th fatality string in the .ini file, implying that she's probably going to get a MK3 fatality in the next classic fatality pack although that would break the whole trend in these packs so far. Maybe she'll just get a new fatality because REASONS.

I don't think we're missing out on Rain because of Tremor, unless it's proven otherwise, mostly because people wanted Rain to be in DLC story pack, though i am still not sure if he would be in Kombat Pack 2. Still, i am very likely to be wrong, cause i like to be proven wrong. Don't accuse me for saying that i didn't want Rain to be in Kombat Pack 2, because, even me and other Rain fans likes him very much indeed. XP

If that's true, then how come the 1st klassic fatality pack is missing Kano and Raiden's? (I would mention Liu Kang's too, but his is not even a fatality).
Anyway on-topic: Not sure about maskless Tremor, but he's finally playable in full form, at least. Calling now that he will get a Klassic costume from the next patch or 2 soon.

As long as Spawn's still a possibility. Their work here with Jason and Predator (And I guess Freddy was good too) leaves me hopeful for a great Spawn guest star. As fun as it is breakdancing in Soul Calibur II with him, this is where he belongs. Anyone else is a nice surprise but not what I'm hoping for.
Anyways, Tremor looks fun. And further solidifies my desire for some twisted genius to make a Toph skin.

Judging from the select screen, all I can say is that its likely to be an even number, and if they add all the current Story NPCs (Baraka, Rain and Sindel), the fourth one could be anyone, Spawn, an entirely new character, a former story cameo, a character from the comics, who knows?

What is strange is that Tremor would fit better in MK9 while Skarlet would fit MKX when it comes to storyline. Tremor could be still a Black Dragon minion in MK9, while Skarlet only had a role (a rather big one) in the MKX comics. Anyway, I just hope that "Who Is Next?" in Tremor's trailer means Rain.

Well, his cameo was quite minor, specially when you consider the other ones (like Sareena and Fujin), so I'm not sure he would have a chance in that case. We'll have to wait, because if the Story Pack actually has four characters, the fourth one will be a complete secret until the end.

Still I don't want to pay 60 dollars to play online each year, at least until the dollar drops in value (17-18 MXN per dollar is just too obscene). Suddenly, paying 7500 MXN are considerably less expensive than paying 400 USD.

...Uh, Todd already gave them permission to include him. Evidently this knowledge was misunderstood over at Neatherrealm, but it's no big secret they like Spawn. Hell, doesn't Scorpion take cues from him?
And it's always fun to root for the underdog, regardless of the hopelessness. Though in this case he shouldn't be one, just oddly absent now. He was also open for Injustice 2, but skipping a chance at Mortal Kombat is an injustice.

I don't think so. Mortal Kombat is a period piece based on 70s-80s kung fu schlock movies. Hell, almost everything in it can be traced back to either Enter The Dragon or Big Trouble In Little China. By comparison Spawn is a typical edgy 90s grimdark shock value comic. Two wholly different beasts.

Mortal Kombat seems pretty modern for me, maybe very few years after or before the Spawn timeline, but not much, enough for Spawn and even Predator to fit, Freddy and Jason both fit timeline-wise as well. And even so, it wouldn't be an acceptable argument: Kratos is a ancient mythology-based character.

Guest characters don't 'fit', that's why they're called guest characters. The whole principle of a character being a guest character is that they don't fit in this world; they are there because Netherrealm Studios is in the business of making money. The most a guest character can do is be the least inappropriate. When Sony agreed to have a guest character in MK9, Kratos was less unfitting than, say, Nathan Drake. When Warner Bros. wanted to pimp out a new movie, Freddy was less unfitting than whatever else WB had in cinemas at the time.
I'm against guest characters as a principle, but still recognise that game devs won't stop doing this horseshit as long as there's money in it. The best case scenario is finding the least inappropriate character. And to me Spawn is the worst of all those ones you just named.

Idk, MKX has a heavier western fantasy theme, a bit more suiting for a superhero and whatnot. There are worse choices than Spawn. And lol at thinking he has no chance of making it. A claim like that is really underestimating Warner Bros, in fact I'm expecting him to be announced.
Anyway, I'm not down with guests either (no fun allowed), I'd much prefer characters in the universe who are underutilized. But money is to be had so not much sense in continuing to argue against it. I just hope the native selection in KP2 is good.
Would you just stop posting? Because you say so many absurd things its becoming unbearable.
The irony in this post is too much for me to handle
anyway, I do believe that they'll do SOMETHING with the Spawn license for sure, you can't just sit on a property like that, whether its putting him a a guest character or making a Spawn game (Oh shit that would be good) theres a good chance WB will do SOMETHING with him.

Dingus! Yo haven't even heard that Ed Boon didn't even f***ing know that he had a deal with Todd McFarlane to let him use Spawn in the game, and then after that, he doesn't recall that he ever had a deal to put Spawn in MKX at all. You want proof? Here: http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2015/apr/17/boon-doesnt-recall-discussion-mcfarlane-where-spawn-was-offered-nrs-variations-were-inspired-street-fighter-alpha-3/

I agree with that. Hell, i don't trust anything seriously that Boon says until i see it at the end when i wait out.

as SNT said because Namco already had the video game rights to him from that game, they didn't go out of their way to buy his rights.
How did Namco get the licence to Spawn in the first place? It didn't just 'happen' because Namco already had them. Surely they had to go out of their way to do something right?
You're reasoning behind it all is "rights are so hard to acquire for third party characters, they can just use their own" when evidence supports it's not as difficult as you're making it seem. All it takes (http://blog.us.playstation.com/2011/03/24/kratos-vs-mortal-kombat-ed-boon-and-stig-talk-shop/) are two interested parties (http://www.freestepdodge.com/threads/hayashi-talks-about-game-balance-and-the-virtua-fighter-guest-characters.1210/) ard negotiation. (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-10-21-ezio-confirmed-for-soulcalibur-5) It's not this hoop of flames you're making it sound like. Nor I wouldn't consider adding one third party character "ignoring the existence of all your IPs" either.
Also not a good comparison, the SNK IP is basically worthless at this point. Spawn is one of the most recognizable comic book characters not affiliated from Marvel nor DC. If Spawn was as valuable as Iori Yagami then this wouldn't be a discussion. Difference.
You don't have to believe he's going to be in the game, that's fine. But it's not because adding guest characters are this painfully bloody process that isn't worth the trouble.

do i have to spell this out? they got the rights to him because they wanted to make him his own game "Spawn: Armageddon". they DID NOT buy his rights just to put him in a fighting game.

That doesn't nullify the point. Namco had to contact the party that owns Spawn and buy his rights. The two agreed to terms and a collaboration occurs. Not of the sexy clashing of IPs kind but it still involved communication between two groups of property holders. Communication that would've broken down if it was as difficult as you're claimed it to be.
If a Spawn/Warner Bros crossover doesn't happen it'd more likely due to a lack of mutual interest than "we couldn't come to an agreement because the legal contracts and royalties were too troublesome."

no it wouldn't. there's a major difference between licensing spawn to make a game solely for him, and licensing him just to put him as a guest character in a fighting game. as there wouldn't be so much confusion about royalties. it would be a something like a 50/50 deal, you provide the lore and characters and we develop a game of out of them.

doesn't a lack of mutual interest happen because one of parties didn't agree on the royalties or the licensing terms?
and really when you look at the guest characters in MKX and compare them to spawn, you'll find that they're timeless movie characters who are just leagues more famous than an edgy op 90's comic book hero who lost all relevance nowadays.

Post by: Niitris on September 06, 2015, 07:17:35 pm
Do you have proof that what you're saying is easier and that royalties are less confusing? Because I would think that permission to use a 3rd party character for a cameo appearance is easier to handle than dedicating an entire game (as well as managing the resources required to make it, cut of sales, budgeting, the creative freedoms that are allowed, etc) to a foreign IP.
And mutual interest is how much the publishers support the idea. McFarlane can be as persistent about it as he wants. It won't happen if Warner Bros aren't interested. That has nothing to do with contract negotiations.
If you want to use his relevance as an argument, that's a bit more plausible. I don't think anyone sound will argue that Spawn is more meaningful or valuable than Jason or Predator.

Shao Kahn would make for a tremendous surprise last DLC character. Removed from his power and throne, he strolls into the capital with its Kotal statues and its peaceful marketplaces, with a massive shit-eating grin on his face knowing he's gonna take it all back because if Mortal Kombat as a franchise tells us anything it's that the Badass Formerly Known As Shao Kahn near literally lives for conquest.
Miles better choice than bloody Spawn.

The probably coolest and most badass dlc character for Mortal Kombat X would be fucking Motaro..in his oldschool design from Mortal Kombat 3 of course but balanced out and with three interesting variations that make use of his design.
Motaro would be someone absolutely nobody expected and many of us MK fans would shake their heads and ask "why the fuck Motaro" ..but also love the idea if they would be able to make him an interesting character there.
Won't happen anyway though.
My serious guesses are
Fujin, Alien (Guest Character), Sareena and either Rain, Baraka or Sindel

Freddy in MK9: That's cool, I actually like the Nightmare on Elm Street movies. Jason in MKX: Neato, I suppose. Leatherface in MKX: ...Why?
I just can't agree to the choice, I like the others and all but Leatherface is just a big "no no" for me.
Also another video source? The one posted on the last page has been taken down.

On the list of horror guest stars, never mind beyond horror, he's just kinda low-key and not much to him. Jason at least has his magic going for him to spice things up.
That said, the first thing that comes to mind is the chainsaw gameplay in The Dishwasher, so it could be some good ol' bloody fun just because chainsaws are fun melee weapons.
Still would have preferred Spawn with hellish magic, axe and chain variations though.

Honestly, the only horror character addition that I liked and was hyped for was Freddy Krueger in MK9, Jason and now Leatherface are both a fucking waste, IMHO.
On topic question, how do you think the new Cyborg will play? What are your thoughts on possible variations for him?

im not digging all of those nostalgia baits they keep bringing into their games. we have enough guest characters, it's kinda apparent they don't care much about what the fans want and just to cater in to the none fans and the casual players with the guest characters. robo chameleon is not bad though, but why the fuck bo ri cho? he is possibly the most hated character after jarek.

Cyborg (possibly Cyborg Chameleon): I'm interested to see how he plays out.
Alien Tarkatan: I kind of knew that a Xenomorph would come in, but never in another form. This will be interesting.
Bo Rai Cho: I kind of thought he has potential of coming in anyway, but I don't mind seeing him in.
LeatherFace: ...I'm all into chainsaw wielding maniacs, but really?

The Cyborg dude sounds like an excuse to add Sektor and Cyrax variations to a single character instead of making them separately. Bo'rai Cho is one of the shittiest character to exist in the MK universe and they added him over a hell lot of NPCs that could have been characters. The Xenomorph makes sense to enter if the Predator is in, but I'm getting a little tired of so many guest characters, specially horror ones, the game is getting saturated with these.

I better agree with you on that. In my eyes, Bo'Rai Cho is not a fucking redeemable character at all because of his fucking farting fatality back in MK: Deception. People may think that he's fucking funny that he did that, but it's fucking dumbest fatality that was ever made. GCN made that statement in "Everything wrong with MKX", so i think you get the point.
As for Leatherface and Xenomorph, fuck them. It is sinful as shit. That pissed me the fuck off more than being hyped for, and i'm one of the few. That's just fucking it.

You say that as if they won't make any changes to Bo'Rai'Cho, I'm pretty sure we aren't gonna get any of his MK:Deception shit in here.
I agree that MK:D Bo'Rai'Cho was fucking shit, but the way they redesigned him implies to me that he'll be different from his previous version (he might even be interesting). But I'll wait until his gameplay vids surface, just in case I might be wrong.

Leatherface...I can see why people hate his inclusion. He COULD work in MK...but not in MKX with the variation moveset(and even then, he's pretty much Jason without the magic as someone stated...even Michael Myers can work better...) and in general, he's pretty bland in MK's universe overall(the main reason people hate Liu Kang).
Seriously, why not Spawn? And I also have to agree with some in where the hell is Sindel and Rain? We really needed Tarkatan Alien(?) and Bo Rai Cho over them? The only one I'm looking forward to is that Cyborg honestly.

Ah yes... Liu Kang... man, NRS pissed me off with that one. They should've let him live in MK9 and made him anti-Raiden (an antihero or a full-on villain). I mean he's a villain now, yeah, but that's just because of the chickenshit decision of slapping that revenant crap on him instead of naturally letting him evolve into something much more interesting.

Yes, bland in character, but I also meant he doesn't offer much to combat. I like Liu Kang personally, and part of that is his type of martial arts he deploys. Not to mention turning into the signature MK dragon!
Jason had a handful of options to use, which they did pretty well in utilizing (Needs more Jason X costume though). Even commented on his similarity of being a magic undead like Scorpion once. But Leatherface...has a leather face and a chainsaw. I look forward to seeing what they come up with to keep things fresh, but initial reaction says they could do better.

I like Liu Kang as well and it pisses me off that NRS basically forced him into the villain role on top of basically killing him and then keep him, Kung Lao, Kitana and Smoke dead(I think there was another but I forgot). I mean they already had him be cocky as hell, he couldn't be an Anti-Hero or Villain type from that alone? Considering they went through alot of crap of making Johnny into a part of a race of super warriors or something, they might as well go full out at this point.

I believed in Bo Rai Cho.. People laughed at my prediction.. Who's laughing now? (JK)
Well, I got Bo Rai Cho & Cyborg character right, but I failed at Fujin and MK Ninja.
Honestly, I did not feel the roster was the same, without a cyborg, so this will defenently fill the gap. I also believe in Bo Rai Cho to be a brilliant fighter, and I am not joking, so hear me out on this one.
We know that NS really hated their 3D era of Mortal Kombat, and most of their designs, which is also why most of them did not come back. In this, I can agree with a lot of people, that Bo Rai Cho, is pretty shitty, to be honest, but the concept of his design is brilliant, if you take away the puking, and farting piece of shit.
He is "The Drunken Master." and if they actually nailed that concept design, bringing what actually made him the mentor of Liu Kang in the first place, instead of this puke & fart fest, then I think we should not judge the return of Bo Rai Cho too fast.
Oh yeah... Not a fan of Alian or Letherface.

I'd imagine as it's been stated that the Cyborg will get Cyrax, Sektor, Smoke variations, Bo Rai Cho.. Drunken Boxing as one, who knows what the others would be, but he wasn't really portrayed as a comedy character in the Story Mode. Alien? Erm.. The sheer thought of a martial arts using Alien seems.. weird. Unless it just claws/tailwhips.
Leatherface? Yeah... I think even Chucky would have been a better inclusion (Hell, I'd even welcomed Kobra over him!). But, they have so many other characters they could have used... why two guests?

Bo Rai Cho: Hell yeah. Happy to see him getting modernised, a chance to step away from fart and puke jokes for the lulz.
Tri-Borg: I've never been a massive fan of the robots in MK, but I'm okay with them getting into MKX. That name is so fuckin stupid though.
He is "The Drunken Master." and if they actually nailed that concept design, bringing what actually made him the mentor of Liu Kang in the first place, instead of this puke & fart fest, then I think we should not judge the return of Bo Rai Cho too fast.
Drunken mechanics could give him some fleshed gameplay. Like SSFIV's Hakan's stock ups to maintain buffs and even access to stronger moves but at the risk of being unable to control your mobility for a while including inability to block. A type of balance to whether you want to drink sake for minor buffs or go all the way for high risk very high rewards.
That's what I want to see in this guy. Hell his variations could be revolved around drunken mechanics or one without any of such and gain gimped versions of moves only accessible in drinks. There's a lot to go along with this!

It's cool that they're trying to redeem Bo Rai Cho. Hopefully they'll make him not as stupid this time. I don't care about the cyborgs, but I am interested in how they are gonna make Leatherface fight. I never watched The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, so I don't know what else he does besides chainsaw. Still, I'm actually anticipating him a little bit. The only character I'm really hype for is the Alien. People are mad because he replaced Baraka, but uhh, I never really liked him anyway, so I'm cool with it.

This is all I got for LeaFace.
He could have the most devastating corner pressure in the game with his chainsaw taking a good chunk of chip damage backed up with the best anti-airs that allows him to juggle the opponent to the corner. The drawback would be lack of mobility and ways to approach the opponent with limited rushdown moves. Keepaway will be his weakness, but he could have a move that somersaults with the chainsaw as a way to get it.
And another variation where he magically summons helpers to try and limit the opponent's position but loses all his deadly corner pres-You know what I still have trouble thinking of how a fat serial killer should be played that doesn't make him EX-Jason.

I heard he is suppose to be an homage to Gunnar Hansen the actor who played leatherface and died in November
That is actually correct.
AFAIK, Boon likes TCM, and the inclusion of Leatherface is a homage to the actor who portrayed him.
I'm quite meh about Leatherface honestly. I got the Cyborg Fusion and Alien.
Personally I was expecting 2 franchise chars and 2 guests.
And I was pretty sure Spawn wasn't going to be on this because NRS lost the chance when they could add him.

As a pretty big horror fan I like Leatherface's inclusion, I'm just not to sure what they're gonna do with his variations. Fists, Mallet, Chainsaw maybe?? The Tarkatan Xenomorph is fucking retarded in my opinion though. If you're gonna add a Xenomorph fine do it, but why do you have to add a stupid "spin" on him? I just see it as an excuse to include some sort of Baraka type character. If it's just a Baraka re-map with new variations I'm gonna be very fucking upset that's just lazy. Bo Rai Cho is just an after thought at this point, I do think it'd be funny if he's been a completely serious non-joke character up until Shinnok through his ass around the Jinsei Temple and he now has some sort of brain damage but retains all his martial arts skills. Tri-Borg is very interesting, I am a bit curious as to how the fuck Smoke is a Cyborg when he's been a revenant since the end of MK9. Actually it's probably not even canon so fuck it. It'd be cool if each variation had different fatalities since they're technically different characters, but I doubt it.

Yeah, Tri-Borg is really lazy indeed... I just wonder who he was before becoming a cyborg, it may make things interesting, at least story-wise.

Agreed, but I'll tell you, I'd take Tri-Borg over Xenomorph Baraka, tbh. X-Baraka went from meh to boring in a very short amount of time (to me, that is), let's hope Tri-Borg's gameplay makes it worth it.

Since you guys were waiting for MKX KP2, here it is, but... It fucking sucks.
Spoiler: Nobody will give a fuck about my comment, but fuck it! WARNING: Lots of swear words.(click to see content)
Fuck Bo'Rai Cho (since he has vomiting and farting moves, which is absolute fucking disgusting, and he ain't a fuckin' redeemable character at all. I fucking called it!), fuck Leatherface (since his combos is too damn similar to Jason's) and fuck Xenomorph except Tri-Borg, which i'll fuckin' keep it. I hope that WB learn their harsh fucking lesson from the real MK fans that they need core MK chars, not this dumbass 2 other guest chars in this goddamn game, since 2 of 'em gonna be least sold than what they expected, even Bo'Rai Cho.
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
Also, The Pit from MK9 is back!
NOTE: I don't give a fuck about hate, just stating from my point of view about the results i don't like when i stand neutral. Leave your goddamn comments, but i'm tellin' you, you're gonna be severely disappointed. I really don't fucking care anymore.
Spoiler: @Zaitsu Hatter(click to see content)
You were partially fucking wrong in the previous post you said, but i'll quote it for you. "The way they redesigned him implies to me that he'll be different from his previous version (he might even be interesting). But I'll wait until his gameplay vids surface, just in case I might be wrong." I'm talking about Bo'Rai Cho's.
Whichever you think he'll be interesting is thrown the fuck out of they window. There! You happy now, Zaitsu?! But more than likely i'll be proven wrong instead, cause i would like to be wrong at any point.

I was also hoping to get another stage and we got that, even if its the pit stage the atmosphere and lighting looked beautiful on new consoles, plus if you didnt get the past dlc they come with it like goro and some costume packs.

Well no shit! Duh! We already had a skin pack that was not in KP1 initially, so why the fuck would we need it again? I'll tell you this: Because they ran out of ideas of making new skins. That's fucked up. But the only skin pack that's new is Apocalypse pack, which is not enough, despite the fact that there'd be more skins for new characters.

Technically i could be wrong and those skin packs could be for other chars in the game but with the same name like the Brazil skin pack could be for some of the other chars. Goro and the Kold War Scorpion skin were pre-order dlc so we was bound to see them eventually. Also you need to take a chill pill you sound like a raging little kid from cod or halo. It's not even that serious if you dont like it dont buy KP2 no one is forcing you lol

You know, color me impressed with the trailer. They did a good job.
Leatherface was okay, but I guess you can only do so much with a guy that has a chainsaw. I like the X-Ray move though.
Triborg might be the most impressive character of the bunch. You had Sektor, Cyrax and Cyber Smoke in one awesome character (and yes, I know Cyber Smoke doesn't exist in this time line, but that's just me being a nitpicker).
Bo Rai Cho is the second best at the moment because they managed to balance the gross humor with actual drunken Kung Fu. Now, before kanodoom somehow gets on my ass for defending the barf and fart antics, might I remind you that barfing has been part of that character since Deadly Alliance, which was his debut. The farting? It was in one Fatality in Deception... that's it. I don't know about you, but bodily function humor is funny to a lot of people, myself included. If you don't like it, just choose another version or *GASP!* pick another character! How hard is that?
Alien... well.. hm. It's not bad, but since this was a trailer, I kind of hope for more. Especially from the 'Alien' side of things... I mean, yes there was a face hugger and another Alien came in to assist, but I kind of hope there's a version that doesn't use the arm blades. The Fatalities... classic Alien.
Oh, the Pit returns as well. Sweet! Make the stage finisher a Stage Brutality, but hey... I don't care. The Apocalypse Pack of skins has me most interested because it's all new. Everything else I already have.

I am also one of those people that liked the old Bo Rai Cho. Bo Rai Cho: It's a gross fighting tactic, but it's one none the less. They did really good! Tri-Borg: Holy Freaking **** they look fun to play with, Cyrax and Sektor and Smoke look on point! Alien: They also did a pretty good job making Alien into the MK universe. Funny that Tarkatan in their DNA and basic moveset. Leatherface: Cool X-Ray Bra, but seriously he looks a lot a cheese to use, not to mention that chainsaw gives him range like the machete gives Jason range.

He would have a point... but I would contend that the 'someone else' he may want would of been in place of the guest characters. Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of characters in the series that could be in here like Sindel and Baraka (both of them having decent roles in the story mode)... hell, I dream of a decent Drahmin one day (one that is based on how he worked in Deadly Alliance, thank you very much).
I just think he's being sour over this. I'm guessing most people are as well... and you know what? If this does well, there could be a 3rd pack of characters and you might get what you want out of it.

Bo' Rai Cho: I'm quite meh about him, but guess any NPC from story mode was going to be chosen. I was expecting someone else, but good for those who like Bo' Rai Cho.

Leatherface is absolutely boring and unoriginal and Bo'rai Cho is patethic like he was before, I hope Shinnok killed him and this piece of garbage never return to the franchise. Out of all the cameos to enter the fucking game, they add the shittiest one.

Alien was the only disappointment I got from the trailer. I don't like the "Baraka" aspects of his character. I hope that in future games they'll actually "retire" the Baraka character and just introduce another Tarkatan, I'm not dissing Baraka at all, I like him a lot actually. I'm just a little salty that we're most likely getting him through an Alien variation.

May I remind you that Liu Kang, Kitana, Kung Lao, Sub-Zero & Jax all died in MK9. There's still a chance any dead character can make a return. Nobody truly "dies" in MK games.

I wonder if Liu Kang and Kitana will have the powers of Quan Chi to make dead their servants. Because that can nullify death as an argument to keep characters from then next game. It would be pretty boring, though.

And the only person capable of resurrecting them is now dead too. I know MK was known for bringing back dead people all the time but we're in a new phase since MK9 where they're treading very carefully when it comes to the story. Ed will definitely not going to use the same tricks twice and if anything, we'll end up with even less familiar characters than in MKX considering that everything is pretty much set up to let the next generation take the lead.
I wonder if Liu Kang and Kitana will have the powers of Quan Chi to make dead their servants. Because that can nullify death as an argument to keep characters from then next game. It would be pretty boring, though.
They only made it this far because they're powerful fighters. I really doubt they inherited any extra abilities from Quan Chi, not even enhanced strength.

Did i just saw something weird on Tri-Borg intro? Is he sort of Fusion character?
The most thing suspicious i got about that new cyborg well,... Smoke is currently a revenant & i assume that the Cyber Lin Kuei (original timeline's future name, Tenkunin) has some of Smoke's data, presumably prior Sub-Zero II's revival as a full human. Identity unknown until we'll see his ending after his release date

I think you're missing something and i'll clarify it for you... Tri-Borg will say in his full lines, since Brian Chard from MK sound department actually said that any variation you pick on Tri-Borg will keep the voice intact.
Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X (Last update on 02.26.15)
Post by: Niitris on January 14, 2016, 08:05:57 pm
I'm glad there's a second pack, personally. I was kind of disappointed when MK9 only had one. I'm sure I'm not the only one.
My two cents (more like two hundred), since everyone else has already given their opinion:
Tri-Borg: I'm sure lots of people missed the Cyborgs from MK9, which is why they included him.
I agree the name's a bit silly, but calling him "Tekunin" would've been a bit too obscure for those that are not familiar with the lore of the game.
A lot of people have said that it was lazy of them to make each variation one of three Cyborgs, but it makes sense in the long run. Sure, they don't have to design 3 variations for each one, but they also don't have to use up 3 slots in a 4-character pack.
I'm pleasantly surprised that the third variation is based on Smoke instead of Cyber Sub-Zero. Having Sub-Zero turned into a Cyborg instead of Smoke was a fun twist in MK9 (it also acted kind of as a nod to all those people that wanted "Hydro" in the game), but from a gameplay standpoint it added very little diversity to the gameplay.
To those complaining that this goes against the new canon: The character's not Smoke, he's Tri-Borg. If you need justification, just imagine that the technology they would've used for Smoke if they had captured him went unused, so this Cyborg grabbed it for himself.
Bo' Rai Cho: I've never been a great fan of this character. With so many great examples of drunken-fist characters, this just feels like the lowest common denominator. Also, that name... "Tri-borg" is really not the worst thing to have happened to MK.
Here's hoping they flesh out this character to make him interesting. I know they can do it since they've done it before. Let's be honest: Beyond the novelty of being secret, all of the secret characters in MK1/MK2 were boring palette-swapped clones before they took the time to flesh out all of their moves and back-stories. I don't see why they can't do the same him Bo' Rai Cho himself.
Alien Tarkatan and Leatherface: No comment. Not a fan of either franchise, so I'm not sure I can give an unbiased opinion but I'm not particularly happy that either of these characters have made it in.
I don't think adding a Tarkatan Xenomorph is necessarily a lazy move. They still have to do three variations regardless. I just wish they would've added Baraka himself, even if he died during the story. He was alive when the story started. Mileena's in and she died too, so there's no valid reason not to include Baraka in the cast (or a fellow Tarkatan with a cool back-story).
I think someone like Fujin could've been much more interesting, gameplay and story-wise. I found him more interesting than Tanya in MK4, and since they did a good fleshing her out I always felt Fujin would've been a great fit as well. Probably Kombat Pack 3, if that's ever a thing.

Well, I do lurk on some of the better known message boards for the series. I get the idea that most fans are peachy with the package.
I do remember seeing a thread that talked about why Capcom is making more bolder choices for it's cast in SFV then Netherrealm. To me, it comes down to this: Are there any characters in the Street Fighter universe that is hated as much as Hsu Hao?
I really can't think of one.... and there's the answer. Capcom's characters have never dealt with such a large amount of hate that most (if not all) of the characters in the middle generation of MK games have dealt with. There are redeemers in there like Kenshi, Frost, and Havik... but for the most part, there isn't much to redeem here.

I am super sure that Rufus was as disliked as Hsu Hao. However they are hardly compareable anyway. The Midway Team Chicago had a lot problems with their first real 3D MK game and the switch from making arcade games to home console games and trying to get the positive features of games like Tekken and SoulCalibur into MK.
Just like Stryker, Hsu Hao would most likely be a really cool guy if the NRS guys re-designed him and gave him a good story as well.

What I like about NRS nowadays is that no matter what character they deal with, the gameplay with said characters are all amazing and unique like how they distanced themselves from making Tremor and Ermac ninjas BECAUSE THEYRE NOT FUCKING NINJAS. so if they did bring back Hsu-Hao somehow I bet it would be great like all of their stuff since MK9

I want to chime in on this and say that Bo Rai Cho was one character I despised, but after seeing the way most characters were redesigned in MKX, I believed that NRS could do the same to Bo Rai Cho. Now I'll come up and admit that I'm disappointed that the puking/farting came back, but I guess that's limited to one variation, based on some break-down video I saw recently (not an official one, but it was still informative) (I hope it's also limited to one variation), as I saw that another variation has him use a cane, and he looked absolutely awesome doing that. Maybe the 3rd variation will be like the 2nd as well in terms of cool. I mean, his design and costume certainly look cooler than his Deception design, that's for sure.
If NRS was at least able to do that to Bo Rai Cho, I think they can make Hsu Hao just as good if they take the time to re-evaluate his previous incarnation, and actually put some though into the character, rather than the ass-faced.... thing we got in Deception/Armageddon/whatever-the-hell.

Rufus? Really?? I don't think he's that hated...
All this is a theory of mine. I've been wrong in the past (and will be wrong again and again), but that's just how I feel. If the guys at Netherealm could somehow make one of the weaker characters better, then I'm for it.

Hsu Hao is probably never gonna return even with a redesign, apparently he's a character that's disliked even by the creators, lol. I guess the problem is that even if they redesign him to the point of being a whole new character then why not make a new character have release another returning character that's more desired/requested than him.
All this is a theory of mine. I've been wrong in the past (and will be wrong again and again), but that's just how I feel. If the guys at Netherealm could somehow make one of the weaker characters better, then I'm for it.
Nah Rufus is pretty hated, wouldn't say he's as hated as Hsu Hao because at least I've seen some people praise Rufus' design (I don't agree with them but still). I really think he could've had a much better design for a fat character though (Bob from Tekken is how a fat character is done right imo).

Perfectly aware of that, I laughed when I first read that fact a long time ago. But I never said that he would return, I was pretty much just backing up a what-if situation stated by the walrus. Everything I said, in addition to what walruslui said was completely hypothetical.
But he's already dead in the MKX timeline and he's hated by the creators, soooo.... we can officially call him a dead and never coming back character. Lol.

Well, I do lurk on some of the better known message boards for the series. I get the idea that most fans are peachy with the package.
I do remember seeing a thread that talked about why Capcom is making more bolder choices for it's cast in SFV then Netherrealm. To me, it comes down to this: Are there any characters in the Street Fighter universe that is hated as much as Hsu Hao?
I really can't think of one.... and there's the answer. Capcom's characters have never dealt with such a large amount of hate that most (if not all) of the characters in the middle generation of MK games have dealt with. There are redeemers in there like Kenshi, Frost, and Havik... but for the most part, there isn't much to redeem here.
Rufus is probably the most hated and unredeemable thing that could ever happen to Street Fighter. I think even Hakan and El Fuerte, who are hated by a lot of people, are still redeemable in some way. But I agree with that: Street Fighter V's release roster contains fan favourites Karin, R. Mika and Charlie, who were requested a lot by the community, while Mortal Kombat X showed clearly that popular characters like Rain and Baraka are closer to be completed than any other (Sindel fits that too), yet they are neither in the release roster, nor in two Kombat Packs, giving place to an uncommonly large ammount of guests that a lot of people would rather not have (at least in big numbers) and also to extremely hated or unpopular characters like Bo'rai Cho.
All this is a theory of mine. I've been wrong in the past (and will be wrong again and again), but that's just how I feel. If the guys at Netherealm could somehow make one of the weaker characters better, then I'm for it.
Well, look at that thing, do you think anyone would like that?

Well, there's already a 'fat acrobatic fighter' in Bob from Tekken... so the guys at Capcom probably felt that since 'imitation is the greatest form of flattery', they made Rufus. I'm sure that, like DelusionTrim mentioned, there are people who like the design.
What I'm getting at is this: There hasn't been a character in the Street Fighter series that has garnered enough hate to have the creators disown said character. On the flip slide, the guys at Netherealm have the specter of Hsu Hao (even though he got iced early in the comic) and most of the characters from the middle generation.
The fan base will always have characters they like and dislike, but when the creators hate a character... you know he (or she) has been deemed a failure.

I have a feeling that the guys at Capcom probably don't like Q. Harada tweeted that the Capcom staff don't want him in Tekken x Street Fighter despite the character placing very high in a facebook poll on the Tekken page, it may not mean anything but it's kinda odd (it sucks regardless though because I'm a fan of the character).
Did anyone else from Midway or NRS beside Ed Boon..who was not the character designer for MKDA mention he hates Hsu Hao? And even he only mentioned that Hsu hao and Drahmin would be his least favourite MK characters.
According to the MK wikia, there was John Vogel... here's what's written there:
Quote
Hsu Hao was one of the more unpopular new characters introduced in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance; the creators themselves disliked him, John Vogel in particular in Hsu Hao's bio kard. Vogel stated that Hsu Hao's death in Jax's Deadly Alliance ending was acceptable because he wanted to get rid of Hsu Hao and had no intentions of bringing him back. A cryptic message revealed by playing the words uttered by an inhabitant of the Chaosrealm backwards somewhat indicate that Hsu Hao won't return (specifically, the message revealed is "Will Hsu Hao return from the dead? Err.....probably NOT"). However, since Mortal Kombat: Armageddon brought back every character, Vogel had no choice but to include Hsu Hao, much to his dismay. Showing just how much Vogel despises the character, Hsu Hao would actually die and become a demon void of any character in his own Armageddon ending. Perhaps not surprisingly, when information about Mortal Kombat (2011) came out, it was stated that Hsu Hao (as well as Chameleon) would not appear in that game.
Ouch... now that's hate... he apparently is in charge of story and art related things in MK, it also says he's involved in character creation and is a modeler but this is the best we got so far in regards to the character.

Also, I'm pretty sure that the Twitter hint ACTUALLY mean KP3, not just because I'm expecting it.
First off, he made sure to tell us that it was "beyond Kombat Pack 2", I doubt this means netcode, because even if they're making a new netcode, they don't need to release it as a feature and do so after KP2, also, its not costumes, because there is already a new costume pack on the KP2, so, there is no reason to release a few costumes separately after that.
Another thing, Boon finished the sentence with "PEACE OUT", which for me, means that they are noticing that a fair ammount of people disliked the content of KP2. Its like they're saying "THERE IS MORE, GODDAMIT, STOP BOTHERING US!"

That tweet specifically was probably just for GGPO.
That said, a complete netcode overhaul isn't usually something given to games for which a developer is looking to make no more content for. It could be a third season of DLC, it could be Ultimate MKX, it could be Super MKX Turbo Champion Edition, but I'd say there's something more coming eventually.

Ed Boon is just a marketing guy at this point, a promoter who can maybe recommend the team some stuff but just like Yoshinori at Capcom or Katsuhiro Harada at Namco they are mainly doing what they are told to do and have to overview the products and the development teams. Stuff related to where a game is published, when and under what circumstances is not in their hands. And yes, thats just my guess.
Further, the NetherRealm representative also confirmed that the newly-announced Mortal Kombat XL (ostensibly a Game of the Year edition) is only coming to PS4 and Xbox One. That makes plenty of sense given that Kombat Pack 2 is included in XL.
The coup de grâce is that the game is getting revamped netcode and PC was never considered for this. A beta recently started for this, but it's only being tested on, again, PS4 and Xbox One.
That last bullet point is the most damning. Mortal Kombat X has struggled since launch with faulty online play on PC -- a version that has approximately 500,000 players according to SteamSpy. Competitive players have almost universally regarded it as unplayable and have looked to different platforms for a more stable experience.
Just like those players, Warner Bros. and NetherRealm are focusing their efforts where the game is at its best. They're continuing the support (and extended sales) on console and leaving PC behind. They're washing their hands of the mess that was PC and taking the path of least resistance.

I won't pretend to be knowledgable on PC games or how their sales work, but I'm relatively sure Mortal Kombat isn't a new indie title. Or a gala. Though that would make a fun mini-game in the future.
I don't mind missing the lower price getting it when it was new. Was fun and worth it, got a gold cartoony Scorpin statue with some saved up money for the big edition. Maybe all the newcomers will give me a chance to maybe win online for a change too.

Those who are already have the game, but don't have the Packs can get both of them for $25
Those who have the game AND KP 1 can get KP 2 for $20... but the only reason I give a damn about KP 2 is the characters and the Apocalypse skin pack since I'm sure that almost everyone else has the other packs in it.

What is worse is that I'm pretty sure that the time they could use to make DLC for PC work, they'll probably waste on making boring shit or even exclusive characters/costumes to the mobile version, just like Injustice. Hell, that one even had Darksied, Static, Reverse Flash and Arkham Knight as playables. I wouldn't be surprised if mobile MKX eventually got all NPCs from the console version as playables, slapping everyone in the face.

I read the email and it's kind of a stretch to say they're blaming NetherRealm. All they're saying is that NetherRealm is keeping track of users' feedback in the WB forums and to please voice their concerns there.
That's hardly the same thing as saying that "NetherRealm is the one keeping track because THEY'RE the ones that caused this problem in the first place". NetherRealm studios is just the client-facing voice for anything MK-related. Same as when a PR department that has to deal with a poor situation that they may be in no part responsible for (e.g.: product defect, company CEO caught in scandal, etc...).

Time for another theory for this game... with the XL pack coming, why not touch on Triborg?
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
I think he is the Lin Kuei's ultimate weapon.
See, Sektor's ending in 9 shows him killing his father, the Grandmaster, and taking over the clan. Normally, most endings from arcade mode aren't canon, but this one has a chance of being so because of the actions in Story mode. Remember, Sektor and his fellow cyber ninjas went to Outworld and tried to take Smoke, but Raiden butted in. This allowed them to take Sub Zero after he beat Scorpion...
What it tells me is that the Lin Kuei has been working on this project for years, probably before the events of MK1 in this timeline and finished it right as the events of MK2 began. Some of you may think 'How did they get Smoke and Sub Zero into this cyborg?'
AI... they have the data on all the ninjas. It just so happens that Triborg has the data of the four strongest ninjas in the clan. They've gathered data on them for years while working in the clan... more then enough time for people to create an AI smart enough to emulate the ninjas they want to replicate. It's not just Smoke and Sub Zero, but also Sektor and Cyrax after the events of the comic. I have to believe that Triborg was activated as a last resort by Sektor before his defeat... a last ditch effort to keep his dreams of a cyber ninja clan alive.

Well, Steamspy puts the PC version at around 500,000 units. MKX sold better than The Witcher 3, which did 6 million units in 3 months. Comparatively, the PC sales are a joke.
Sales on other services aren't factored in, but obviously it wasn't enough for them to consider it worthwhile. Still, with how they borked it's release, they could have thrown PC gamers a bone and do it anyway.

Pirating a fighting game nowadays is pretty pointless, especially when it comes to MKX which has online events and faction wars on top of your standard. It's pretty safe to assume that most of the people who pirated it just for the story mode were never going to pay $60 for it to begin with and would instead just use Youtube to watch it should they be unable to crack it.

WB is pretty much retiring from the PC market at this point. It's kinda sad to see an American company having less sense than the Japanese ones that are embracing the PC as a viable platform more than ever. You gotta love the plot twist there, I don't expect them to release a game on PC ever again until their CEO changes or something like that.
Also for the people who don't get why this is a big deal. Remember that these people abandoned the Wii U version of Injustice and now the PC version of MKX. It's a matter of time before your console is considered unprofittable by the fat cats and they end up forcing the devs to stop supporting your version of the game.

They already done that, and people seem to be ignoring it as well. Remember how MKX was to have PS3/360 ports? That they delayed and delayed and delayed and finally just cancelled it? :D

I don't think they cancelled the last gen version because they were not profitable, if that was the case they wouldn't even announce it. They would probably gain a lot from it, actually. If they couldn't make the game work well for PC, let alone PS3/360.
Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X (Last update on 02.26.15)
Post by: lui on February 07, 2016, 06:11:09 pm
last-gen consoles aren't really profitable nowadays, they aren't getting any new games and will likely end support past 2018/17, the price drop of both the PS4 and XB1 and the constant remasters from last gen games for those 2 also push away the last-gen worth. plus with XB1 getting 360 support even more people migrated to the current gen.
last gen could barely handle the stuff current gen puts outs, plus there are just alot of better factors for current gen, if they made a (badly made) port to last gen consoles that would honestly just be a cash grab like CoD's horrible last gen port of Black Ops III

Yes, last gen is still getting a fair ammount of games, I doubt they are not profitable. Sure, not as much as current-gen, but saying that they are not is exaggerating.

Post by: Niitris on February 07, 2016, 06:48:00 pm
Last gen is more profitable for JP games. And we all know that console gaming in Japan isn't what it once was. The fact that they're RPGs not named Final Fantasy also has to do with it. The only real reason they have to make a current gen version is for the overseas audience that has the wider install base.
The other parts of the world have embraced this current generation and PC as well. No real reason for non-jp companies to make last gen ports outside of nabbing a couple extra bucks, which may not even be worth the effort anyway. That said, they cancelled the last gen version because WB is short on foresight. If they weren't, they would've known better than to contract High Voltage for their services yet again.

Mortal Kombat X update patch 1.12 has now been released and it’s a big download. It adds a few new things as well as support for some upcoming DLC.
If you have been keeping up with all the updates for Mortal Kombat X, patch 1.12 should be roughly between 7 to 10 GB in size. Some users are reporting that it could be lower, but it’s quite large. Some content is not yet available in this new update, but they should be unlocked eventually.
Here’s some of the things that the new update patch includes: “New Netcode, XL Characters(Not yet playable), The Pit Stage and several Character Buffs/Changes”
A person on Reddit posted more additional information about the update patch. He said: “For those who those who have preloaded the DLC, they are greyed out until the unlock time in your region. For example, here in California, that unlock time is 9 pm on Monday. The Pit, stage fatalities, balance changes, new netcode, new trophies/achievements, and Medieval Pack are all ready to go. The Kosplay Pack, the Apocalypse Pack, and the four new characters are not yet available. Again, wait for the unlock time.”

Watched a vid about Bo' Rai Chos Drunken Master variation... It´s a great fusion of Tekkens Lei Wulong (p.e. animations & lay down/relax/Knock Down Position) & Virtua Fighters Shun Di (p.e. Drink Point/alcohol level). I really like it.

Interesting video I found. Just in case you need to know who can return alive in MKXI or who will need to be revived.

So I decided that being late to the party simply wasn't worth it this time and caved in by getting the PC version
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
what? i'm broke.
Just so I could see what all of the fuss was about and... yeah.. barring certain leaps of logic i'd say the Story was pretty great overall. Cassie Cage was not the John Cena of the plot as some people I know had made her out to be. If anything she didn't do much of anything until the very end which might be it's own issue but her eventual feat isn't forced, fully explained near the start of the game and so on and so forth.
As for the gameplay... it shows that they have moved away from the core Mortal Kombat design philosophy with something leaning much more in the way of Injustice and set out to be more tourney oriented/accepted. I don't like it. It makes for a better "game" but it makes it less "Mortal Kombat" in my personal opinion.
Oh and the Fatalities were just a little -too- grim for my tastes. Jeeze. Most Fatalties were enjoyable for how over the top and silly they were. Johnny Cage's Second Fatality is just flat murder.

And fuck Cassie's Ladder ending. Fuck everything about it.

How does MKX moves away from the Mortal Kombat experience if Injustice's gameplay is close to MK9's (MKX plays more like MK9 than Injustice) and MK9 came first? That makes no sense.
Title: Re: Mortal Kombat X / XL
Post by: Negi Springfield on March 27, 2016, 06:38:50 pm
Go play MK9, Injustice and then MKX. Much higher emphasis on combos(because that hasn't gotten old by now), stage interactions and generally less powerful singular moves barring the almighty uppercut.
I said the changes make for a better fighting game but not for a better Mortal Kombat game.
Why is it that all fighting games these days rely/reward memorizing one or two long combos and just doing everything you can to lock them in over and over? Honestly after I beat the Story I didn't have much interest in playing the game any more outside of seeing all the character interactions myself and seeing a few Ladder endings.

I kinda hate to admit, but I feel the same... I disliked the over the top goofyness of some fatalities in previous games (like UMK3/MKT Kabal's fatalities, the way limbs fall Kung Lao's fatality, among other stuff), but then there are some finishers in this game that just don't feel enjoyable to watch due to how it takes itself too seriously.
It's stuff like Ermac pulling the insides of a character out of their mouths, call me soft or whatever but that's not even fun to watch imo. I just think like there should be a balance between humor and grittiness in MK games, and I feel they disregarded that and went overboard on the gritty aspect for some fatalities at least.

I like it when Kung Lao forces a person's face down onto his buzzsaw hat without a stretch of remorse whatsoever.

I'm pretty sure they've tried to balance the humor and violence in the finishers, but that can be a hard task (I assume).
You go too far in the 'violence' direction, you get the reactions of you and Negi Springfield here: The finishers are too grim and might give you nightmares. Too humorous and you get the antics of MK3.
Everyone here knows that violence is what fuels this series... whether you like it or not is a personal choice, you know.

You know, it could have been worse, they could have made a fatality similar to Mileena's death to D'Vorah.

Basically there is new shit coming for MKX/XL, and apparently its not a random patch, to be announced at EVO.

Post by: "Bad News" Hoffmann on June 24, 2016, 08:09:43 pm
It should be mentioned that no Kombat Pack 3 was confirmed, just "cool news" that will be announced at the Evo. We had Boon talking about cool news like that via twitter before and in the end it was nothing than supporting another competition.

After grueling 6-7 months of not getting the PC version of MKXL, in the end, i was absolutely wrong about not getting the PC version of MKXL at all until this happened today that we're getting the PC with GGPO code. So now, it seems like it's happening right now for those who are playing on PC right now. This time, it's not developed by HVS (High Voltage Software), it's developed by Q-Loc, one of the Polish companies who ported some games, so i believe this is newsworthy.

MKXL will not have its separate entry because it's a patch for MKX and it's currently in beta testing. They're not going to update MKX's store page and change the game's name when the update itself isn't really out yet, and it wont be for at least a couple more of weeks.

Mortal Kombat XL for PC will be available for purchase Oct. 4, 2016. Originally developed by NetherRealm Studios, Mortal Kombat XL is adapted for PC by Qloc. Additionally on that day, current owners of Mortal Kombat X on PC will be able to download the latest patch for free, giving players access to all of the latest balance updates as well as the enhanced online experience, that was available in the recent beta test for the game.
