Do Variations ruin Character Costumes?

But he didn't say from the start or after DLC, did he?

Ed Boon said in the Kombat Tether interview that the roster would be similar, if not more than MK9's.

I know, but my personal interpretation is that that figure includes DLC. But don't try to change my mind, mate. My way is win-win: I'll either be unfazed if proven right or pleasantly surprised if proven wrong.

Same here.
Roster size doesn't really matter to me. I only ever main, at max, 4 characters.

I only main the one, but I try to learn BnB's with as many as I can. Still, more characters means more characters I might like, and that's always a good thing. But, yeah... roster size and specific characters' inclusion/exclusion generally don't matter to me; what's fun is fun.

For those of you panicking about the chances of Alternate Costumes being in the game... Chill the eff out and think for two seconds.

If you've noticed, the variation-specific costume "changes" can be applied to Alternate Costumes as well. It's clear that the changes were made in a way that won't affect costumes entirely.

I do not mind the variations of the first characters like Sub-Zero, Scorpion, D'Vorah or Ferra&Torr. What I don't like are Kano's different colours. I think his eye should always be red.

MKX looks perfect so far. I hope there will be alternate costumes. Unlocking costumes is fun. Always liked that.

I must admit, I am no fan of how each Variation has some kind of indication on the costume. I would MUCH rather that it just said what Variation you are using in the corner of the screen, like, beneath the character names or above the X-Ray meter, WITHOUT showing on the actual character.

I completly agree with this post. Variations should be just describe on hud, not as a color on armor. (Option to choose how it is display would be nice.)

In the Vicious variation, Ferra loses the headress part of her helmet and Torr's mask become white.

WTF? I've never seen this before, wow thats actualy pretty cool lol

And I believe Boon said in an interview that the variations were originally planned to have different costumes, but they only put small key items in, so people can use both the primary and alternate costumes for the variations. And he did say that alternate costumes were planned because fans like them.
