ALIEN is amazing, however.....

I think NRS did an amazing job with Alien, all his combos, variatios, fatalities, even his tail.... however there are just 2 TINY issues remaining to be resolved...

When the baby alien pops out of Goros chest, in Aliens outro... it needs to have 4 arms, there is only 2 visible.... i loved how they made a Predalien come out of the predator ( NICE TOUCH! )

Second thing.... they need to do a cool animation between Predator and Alien at the select screen, after both those characters are chosen (you know, like how they did with when you chose Carl Weather Jax and Commando Johnny).... that would be epic. Heck they could even look at the first AvP film for inspiration....

What do you guys think?

NRS payed unparalelled attention to detail on some cases but then they let such lame things in the game on others. They started with Sub-Zero's Fatality when they animated it incorrectly. After Sub breaks the spine, he lifts the opponent in the wrong direction as the position of his hands would suggest the opposite. Now they did the same with Triborg's Teamwork Fatality. If you do it on the Player 2 side, Smoke rips out the heart on the right side of the chest. Why the heart again, you should ask, because if they went for the lung this time it wouldn't have mattered which side you're on as humans have lungs on both sides.

Leatherface has a Bruatality which is the same as his Fatality. But even his Fatality is stupid, because he puts his chainsaw through the victim's body before he starts it up. Ok, I know that MKX is over the top intentionally and it's plain stupid that you can cut or saw up people with Machetes and chainsaws without killing them instantly but if we have this rule that only finishing move kills, at least then and there should things like this matter. But it is how it is, so I don't think they will change animations after release.
 
Agreed. Also wish he did more damage and his Deadly Hybrid fatality was cooler other then that he's my 2nd favorite guest.

He should do the same damage. It compensates for his ridiculous range , good mix-up potential , and the insane dot his acidic variation does. He also has some of the best punisher moves in the game. Making him do more damage would make him too strong IMO.

Oh wow. Thats very interesting. I did not notice that before :)
 
Oh and i also noticed that in the Queen Alien fatality, she is missing her 2 front arms... you can really notice it once the opponent is completely ripped in half (before it shows the body hit the ground)...

Its really strange because the Queen Alien has all 4 of her arms in the Aliens ending... strange... perhaps they didnt think we would notice in the fatality?... hmmmmm....

Lol can you imagine what how many arms a baby Queen Alien would have coming out of Goro?... lol. 8 arms! Hahaha
 
Acidic has some insane corner damage with the acid restands. If you can open up your opponent they're dead in 10 seconds. And Tarkatan is like Covert Ops Sonya meets Lasher Takeda. I haven't tried Konjurer much but the face hugger seems fun to play around with , if not a little gimmicky.
 
I noticed that if you are stuck in the corner Alien will more than likely destroy you. Especially in the acidic variation.
