So I hope we will get more than just three this time around. It won't surprise me if another guest fighter is added besides Rambo (If that does happen. I guess my number theory on guest fighters has become correct).
Ed Boon also considers the new DLC wave to be KP3 https://twitter.com/TalonVirus/statu...188609/photo/1

I'd like to see more than 3 as long as the 4th one isn't another guest, as I currently don't care for any of the data mined ones.
If it turns out to be Rain, Mileena, Rambo and another guest then I'll be skipping that pack entirely and just get the skin packs separately.
Crosspost
Hey folks! We may/may not get some SRK folks come over here because of the SRK fallout or something!!!
LOL. Well, I think some are going to Megashock (formerly SRK2) or something. Who knows. They may or may not visit![]()
For those interested, the KP2 trailer....
Spoiler:
I'm happy with the pack. Great to see more Trilogy characters back, and Stallone voicing Rambo is hype af.
It feels bitter sweet to see Mileena at this point. I'm sure Rain players feel the same considering this is the second time NRS has sold him as DLC. I'm curious to see how NRS butchers Mileenas move set. This next Kombat Kast will ether be amazing or a complete shit show. Good times ahead.
Rain is maaaaaaaaaaaybe the only 1 that I have any slight interest in seeing as far as MK11 changes go to his character.
Aside from that, fvck this KP.
Nearly half the DLC is comprised of guests and I don't think that toxic and shitty behavior should be rewarded. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
So have every single game be MK9 version 2.0, then?
That sounds like it would get boring quick as fvck if every game had the same 26 characters on the main roster with nothing else to keep it fresh.
If it's not Mileena fans requesting / harassing / making threats at Boon and NRS for MK11 it'll be another sub-set of fans.
They should do whatever they want and not give into the few vocal toxic ones.
Hell, as it is they're already ungrateful because "Mileena doesn't have her MKX lips in the trailer." As if customization isn't a thing in MK11.
2/3 of the roster being from MK9 is already a ton of those characters as it is, but now that she's in this fanbase will find another klassic character to go on and harass them about.
Sorry. What "customization"? You mean those three items you can change? And you believe they will add facial customization, when they can't even muster enough effort to give Jax metal skeleton for his arms and cybernetic body for Frost?
You can keep introducing same character as much as you want, especially if they are part of the story. It is the execution that matters.
You can start introducing a batch of brand new characters in every sequel, but if gameplay sucks, then nobody will care about it either way. At the same time you can keep introducing same 26 characters, but if you keep updating and evolving the gameplay and visuals, people won't get bored. It is one of the reasons why people keep asking their favorites. They wanna see how they will look and play in next gen game. That's the driving force. There are people that main Scorpion from MK1 and still aren't bored of him. He looks and plays differently, with every new gen.
Nah not every Trilogy era character should be in, but everyone from MK1-2 should. They're arcade royalty and Mortal Kombat owes so much of its success to them. Not to Frost, Havik, Reiko, Li Mei or any other bumfukk loser people want to pretend they like. I love some of the 3d era characters, but I'd never chose them over someone like Smoke, Reptile or a cyborg
They can easily make an MKX skin that comes with the lips. It's not a big deal.
I'm really sorry that they fvcked up Frost for you, but Terminator is proof that they can do different internals for characters and they can do better details like that for the DLC since they have more time with each individual character.
Again, yes, it sucks that they didn't put as much effort into the MK11 main roster characters and I can empathize, but they have done a better job with details for the DLC characters.
The new characters are really well done, but people love to shit on them because "KoMbAt KiDz" or whatever other stupid word people want to use to discredit them.You can keep introducing same character as much as you want, especially if they are part of the story. It is the execution that matters.

Again, my point is that not every game has to be MK9 version 2.0 and MK11 already has 21 out of the 30 playable characters from MK9 in it.
Yes, there are still people that still play Scorpion and only Scorpion and lots of those people are likely blinded by nostalgia and not willing to give other characters a chance. Let's also not sit here and act like Scorpion and Liu Kang aren't the 2 easiest characters to use online.
No, they shouldn't because the same 14 in every game means that that's 14 spots automatically out of 24 that can't be used to give other characters a chance.
I understand the big 10 (the OG7, Jax, Kitana and Kung Lao from MK9 through MK11) but no, the other characters can be switched in and out from game to game, and some of those other main roster spots should be used for 3D era and newer characters like Reiko, Havik, Li Mei and Sareena.
We had 6 characters that were post-MK3 in the MKX roster and you still had Shang Tsung missing from it. Not a big deal.
The problem is that this fanbase always wants every game to be another UMK3 and they will never be happy unless all 26 are in.
In MKX you had Sindel, Nightwolf, Rain, Baraka, Noob Saibot, Kabal and Jade missing and people b!+ched and complained, so then they add all of them to MK11 and people still b!+ch and complain because Mileena, Reptile, Ermac, Smoke, Cyrax and Sektor are missing.
Aside from Stryker and human Smoke all of the MK9 cast has been in MKX and / or MK11 as playable, yet it's been 14 goddamn fvcking years since some of the other characters have had a chance to shine.
Can you really not see how stupid this sounds? "The fanbase really wants this one thing, so the dev should change that!"
Why not give the fans what they want lol.
"Because it gets stale" is what you're gonna say. But I'd disagree with that. Sub Zero has never missed an MK game and they always find a way to make him unique from his last appearance. Remember how everyone lost their mind when he threw his ice clone in MKX?
