Skarlet vignette + DLC characters confirmed!

I'd be VERY surprised if the characters are less than $9.99.
they honestly think after the ******** with the online and the patches and the ps3 favoritism that people will support this game with $10 characters for EVERY character? i don't give a **** if they give away every classic costume in the game away free, i'm not spending $10 on dlc characters. oh and another thing, people seem to have forgotten that a passcode is required to play this game online which is essentially an extra $10. usually if a game requires you to use a passcode you get REAL free dlc. so far we have gotten absolutely nothing for having the passcode.

Hmm, it does look like Ed Boon as the unknown DLC lol.
 
10$ is really really steep for just 1 new character. I don't care how many new skins we get.
That would mean $40 for 4 new characters! WTF, I can almost buy the whole game again.

I think 15$ for 4 new characters is an ideal price.

Taking in the fact that cod games have 5 new maps for 15$.

I really hope it's not too expensive....
 
Very happy to hear that Skarlet is coming out next week! Will have to stay up late next Monday! I will get her, no matter how expensive!

Rain and Kenshi, on the other hand, I have absolutely no plans of getting (especially now that the problem of online play against these characters is being solved via compatibility packs).

If the forth character is Sareena, Tanya, Ashrah, Nitara, or Li Mei, I will be getting that character too, irrespective of price...

maybe you are willing to pay any price for dlc characters, but i would like a reasonable price. especially since there are still so many problems with the game. you saying that and then going to buy it as soon as it comes out and it really is $10 just lets them know they can charge whatever price they want.
 
I'm gonna guess that since we've seen Tanya in Kahn's Arena, that she's the 4th character. With that being said, looks like Rain's look got a bit of an overhaul which is always welcomed in my book.
 
Skarlet's coming out in a week, MK3 cyborg costumes are coming with her (for free), Rain is confirmed as the third DLC character, and both Kenshi and Rain have pretty cool looking silhouettes. I would've really liked to see a price, but either way I'm pumped. This announcement actually made me smile lol.

I'd be cool with Tanya taking Skarlet's place in the Arena if you're playing as Skarlet regardless of Tanya being the 4th character or not.
 
Very disappointed that they are releasing Rain. Such a waste of time, money and resources. I cant wait till he is released and they find out that he is the least downloaded and least played character because his "fans" are TRULY in the minority

>implying your opinion isn't the miniority
 
LOL at me getting negged for saying Rain's silhouette looked cool. I'm not even a fan of Rain.. the maturity of anonymous message board users never ceases to amaze me.
 
My thoughts on the most likely kombatants that will be the "???" DLC character.

1. Shinnok- (Appears at the end of story mode; main boss of MK4; mentioned in Boon's DLC tweet back in January)
2. Tanya- (Probably the most popular girl from the 3D era, played a huge part in the events of MK4; hinted at by Boon a few times in a couple of his tweets; was actually on Boon's DLC tweet back in January)
3. Reiko- (A lot of cameos in the game, 2 in story mode in 2-3; a big part in MK4; hinted at in one of Boon's tweets)
4. Non-canon Cyber Smoke- (One of the most requested character; would give Smoke fans the best of both worlds; mentioned in Boon's DLC tweet)
5. Fujin- (Leaked sound files; one of the most popular post-Trilogy characters; have a bad feeling that he won't make the cut, though; big part in MK4)

So freaking excited Rain has finally been confirmed! He looks good in that silhouette; hopefully his actual look will follow suit. So Skarlet's coming next Tuesday, huh? That's great! Not only that, that was an awesome vignette she had, which could actually give an insight to future events in the storyline. I can finally do a character study for her now. And klassic Cyrax and Sektor costumes! I'm really excited for the former, since I am very satisfied with Sektor's look in this game. Can't wait to download them!

The DLC characters will probably cost 5$ each.

* LOL at who gave me negative rep writing this : "purple rain is a fanboy's character, nothing more..."

Rain's silhouette kind of just looks like Ermac's new costume. I'm not so sure that is an accurate representation...same as the mystery character isn't.
 
Thanks for the info. My guess is its Tanya since she's tied up in Kahn's Coliseum. The way I see it is why would they have her there with Skarlet if they weren't gonna have her playable?
 
cyrax and sektor will be a free dlc download? From what i understood, they will be included when you download skarlett.

The way it was worded, I believe the skins will come with the compatibility pack. It looks like each pack will come with free costumes or goodies.

"These packs will be free and come with two skins (the first pack contains Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3-inspired Cyrax and Sektor). If you straight up buy the character DLC, you get the free skins as well."

Good enough for me. Rains silhouette looks frail. Flame away.
 
i assume it would be the same price for both systems. now if we get screwed again and have to wait an extra week or 2 remains to be seen.
