MK10 Wish-list

[natey2k4]

- Johnny Cage.

- Ninja-style Reptile.

- Johnny Cage.

- Longer story mode.

- Johnny Cage.

- More characters. 35+ w/ a few new characters and few returning characters.

- Johnny Cage.

- One X-Ray PER MATCH. Brings more strategy. Have the super bar with a new third option (Enhanced, Breaker, and something new) and an X-Ray icon which disappears after using it once.

- Johnny Cage.

- Longer recovery time for a missed teleport (ex: Noob tries a teleport and it's blocked or missed - make him take an extra second to recover so its easier for the other character to get ready for something else - would cut down on online spammers).

- Johnny Cage.

I wonder if MK10 will focus mainly on the MK4 story line or focus on MK4 through MKD or possibly even MKA. Anywho I'd like to most of the MK9 roster return. Never have been a fan of most post MK3 characters with the exception of Kenshi and Onaga (Quan Chi and Shinnok were ok but nothing too special to me). I also hope Reptile has a more human look aswell or at least a human looking alternate.

I say they should ditch that storyline and start fresh. It could give them so much more possibilities and they wouldnt have to limit themselves because of tedious little things

My opinion

CHARACTERS
-Cyber SubZero as a permanent character
-Cyber Kabal
-MK4 Characters replacing OG's, for example Jarek replacing Kano. Not saying for good, but just for the MK10.
-Tremor debut
-Evil Liu Kang

STORY MODE
-Large Emphasis on the MK4 characters for the story mode
-No Gameplay design for cut scenes, I'd rather the story be told with pictures
-Better writing, a lot of the shit from MK9 was cheesy tbh.
-Make it fun, Deception wasn't a great game, but the best part of the game was its Konquest mode.

GAME
-Better online, make sure you test your s*** thoroughly this time.
-Pick whether you want to play someone in ranked, show the connection. Sometimes I get my ass kicked and my rank gets screwed because of lag and not skill.
-Change the design of the game, the game play is fine, but the look needs to be changed. MK9 looks too similar like vsDC and while that's not a bad thing, they need to go with a more cartoony-violent approach. The design you see from their concept art should be how the game should look in my opinion and not the whole computer generated polys and shit. Makes the game look/feel clumpy at times, not saying MK9 looks bad, but the game has had that similar look since DA.

Okay, give me reason why Liu Kang should be evil? Anyone? Liu Kang working for Shinnok wouldn't be right or anyone evil (unless his body is under control like everyone in MKD by Onaga). If Liu Kang shouldn't be good, at least let him be netural!!!! That would be much better than an evil Liu Kang.

yea, I found myself saying in my head "Damn that cool, I wish they would have made it look like that in the game" a bit too much when going through the concept art in Nekropolis. I dont mean to sound like a typical modern gamer, or 12 year old, but I think MK9 could have had a more gritty design.
The character designs are good for the most part, but its the overall feel and atmosphere that could have been more evil and bloodthirsty like the original games.

Love me some Liu Kang.

But the guy is flawless, and its boring to be honest.

I'd love to see either Quan Chi control his corpse, or if his ending is true, his god powers get to his head and lose control. With Shang Tsung being the only man who can stop his destruction.

Never saw this post, if Liu Kang should be evil, it should be because someone is controling his corprse instead of Liu Kang being evil for the hell of it. Spirit Liu Kang kan kome in into the picture and try to save his friend's soul like in MKD with Ermac.

I don't see that happening. I don't think NRS would ever let anyone take Raiden's place. Unless, it's Fujin.

Serious, first of all. I honestly loved Liu Kang, but I do not want to see the same Liu again for MK10, I want to see Kai come in and take his place and really expand his story. Same thing with Kano, we've seen him since MK1 and now it's time to really get Jarek in there and make him a deeper character. MK9 made me realize how far they could re-tell MK and how sweet it would be, nobody really wants to see the same stuff anymore. The MK4 story needs to be re-told, since Shinnok has so much potential to be an awesome character, he just gets overlooked because NRS is obsessed with Shang and Quan Chi.

Also, I hate when games take their in game graphics and make that their cut scenes, it looks so bad. All those chars are designed to be in certain stances during fights, so when you see them moving around you can see flaws in the design really bad. It's one of my biggest pet peeves in video games, like I love how SF does anime for their cut scenes during the arcade mode. Idk, I always notice the char's chest, how it looks all disproportionate and stuff while they're walking around and talking, always bothers me.

A new design, it'll be the 10th in the main series so I think they should start from scratch like "look" wise. The concept art you see in the game would be soooooooooooo sweet. It's not like computer generated graphics, but their concept art is like the perfect look for MK. Then that would really give MK it's old school feel too, it would really make it feel like a 2D game, I'm not saying if they keep mk9 graphics it'll be bad or make me not want to play it. I'm just saying, the graphics have had that similar style since like MK DA.

Oh, I also forgot. I hope they take Nightwolf and make him a werewolf like his ending, but not like sabrewulf from KI, make him more humanoid, would be cool too.

*Only a few characters from MK9. We don't need every one back; the Trilogy had its chance. Now, its time to kill some off, and let the post-Trilogy characters have a chance. Otherwise, whats the point of making another game, if you're just going to include the same exact roster?

*Better dialogue in Story Mode. The dialogue in MK9 was garbage.

*In fact, ditch Story Mode, and bring back the Konquest. If you're going to flesh stuff out more, then you might as well flesh out the various realms more.

*Endurance Mode, similar to the Wii version of MK: Armageddon.

*More costumes. Some people will whine about having to pay for stuff. I'll gladly pay for it, if it gives me more options and variety with the characters.

*A new design for Shinnok. Model it after MK: Annihilation, but just more sinister.

*Chess Kombat. It was freakin' awesome in Deception.

*More clothes on the female fighters. They're martial artists and killers, not strippers and porn stars. Besides, you can't take the females in MK seriously, if they look more like the types you'd give $1000 to spend an hour with.

*A better soundtrack. The new game's music was nothing special at all.

*Online network. Enough said.

*No console favoritism, or exclusive characters.

*No Shao Kahn. Again, its time for something different.

*No Tremor. He is completely insignificant to the MK universe. I honestly don't understand why people are so fascinated with a character that has contributed absolutely nothing to the universe.

No, I agree with your comment before this though now that I'm thinking about it. Make Liu neutral, like after the whole MK9 drama, he should just lose trust in everyone and do his own thing. Make him a nomad, that would be cool, but they should definitely give a newer look though if he returns. Make him recognizable, but I mean, emphasize the change in his personality and stuff. Ya know?

I love to see the same thing too (about a new champion). People in TRMK changed my opinion on Liu Kang being the champion, but he doesn't need to be evil either. Maybe if his body was under control by Onaga or Quan Chi, that would be fine. Why? I don't like to see Liu Kang being evil over revenge or lust of power. I rather see him be evil kause he has to. This kan finally give NRS a chance to go deeper into the Spirit Liu Kang. Something I would love to see.

I love that idea you have if Liu Kang were netural. That was actually what I was thinking for Liu Kang. I kould never see him become evil unless his body is taking over.

But his body should not be a zombie>:l

I really like the idea of him being neutral, the evil thing is just way too extreme for Liu now that I think about it. A neutral Liu is a better idea, I don't want to see a zombie Liu either, I hated that so much. If he's under control, then that will mean he's evil in a sense, so I'd rather see him as a neutral char like you suggested at first. That's a perfect next step for Liu, good thinking : )

Ya man, the concept art was so sweet, I love the way they made that look. Computer generated graphics are cool, but it would be cooler if MK did something different. All fighting games do that now, so even if a game plays way differently, most fighting games still feel really generic because of that look.

 

[Drakilla]

Better balance, better online (obviously!), some canceling combos that take more skill/technique than dial a kombo

I always knew it was too extreme for Liu Kang to be evil. I know Liu Kang wouldn't be evil and just throw all of his life's work just like that. And that what if Liu Kang were evil was just an idea.

But yeah thank you dude. I always know what's good for Liu Kang. But the only thing that's bugging me is I don't know how Liu Kang would kome back to life without being a zombie. Any ideas?

That would be amazing if the characters were animated in the same style as the concept art! I like 3D in most games and I don't mind it in MK but having the characters animated like the concept arts in 2D would be so awesome!

 

[Aldo Moreno]

I don't know anything about gameplay but no. Dial-a-Kombos should stay. It's a Mortal Kombat thing since MK3.

:l
That would not be amazing. Mortal Kombat has always be known for having realistic graphics they have now. They should keep it or make it look much better for MK10. I want my Mortal Kombat to stay looking like Mortal Kombat. Not cartoonish graphics like SF or Tekken with all that gel in their hair.

Hmm, I mean characters do come back to life and Ed did hint that the chars who died in MK9 could return. So, anything is possible, I think if anything, they should keep it a mystery as to how, what, or who resurrected Liu. If they bring him back as a spirit, it would be cool or him possessing another person. That's more along the extreme line, but don't worry about it being impossible for Liu to come back as human. They do it to almost all the chars, remember Sindel's reincarnation in the mk9 storyline?

I just hope they make it so he returns, but not as a zombie, just as a hermit, ya know? He's lost all his trust, he's cynical, just a different Liu, but not exactly evil. I don't want him siding with Kahn or like one of the sorcerers, it just is too extreme for him. His ending in MK9 is way too much for him, that's why I'm hoping it's not cannon. If it is, it won't ruin the game, but they should really just bring him back as a neutral hermit with no trust, I'm telling you.

I don't know anything about gameplay but no. Dial-a-Kombos should stay. It's a Mortal Kombat thing since MK3.

Agree 1000000000000x's a billion, I don't want MK to turn into a SF combo based game. MK has a really cool juggling system that's really different compared to most fighters, keep the same combos, I love that stuff.

That would be amazing if the characters were animated in the same style as the concept art! I like 3D in most games and I don't mind it in MK but having the characters animated like the concept arts in 2D would be so awesome!

Thanks!

TRMK should convince Ed Boon to design MK10 like that in 2D, it would seriously make the game stand out and give it that classic feel.

No, no not that kinda cartoon. Let me find a good picture of what me and Darth are talking about
