Countdown To Release!!!

[Kitty_55]

I couldn't tell you how hard it was not to update this list during the holidays, but since they're almost over, I have brought you six questions to answer!

 

[theincubuslord]

Was it hard not answering questions?

- I didn't try to avoid them, except for one which I haven't answered, so no.

Describe what kind of new arena should we get if it'll be released during the next reveal?

- I would love to see more like Shang Tsung's Garden, perhaps depicting places in Edenia: Beautiful stages with alot of colour.

Out of all the fatalities we've seen in the series, what fatality would you want to have performed on you?

- I wouldn't want any of them performed on me.

Would you be okay with projectiles canceling each other out when colliding into each other such as what happens in Street Fighter?

- Yes.

Cinematic endings or pictured endings?

- Pictured, like in MK9.

Would you be okay having another tag team character in this game?

- As in Noob-Smoke or as in Ferra & Torr? I think Ferra & Torr works and should be the only pair. Wouldn't want another like Noob-Smoke.

 

[Tarkatan Trash]

76. Having this long of a break really made me forget this thread even existed. I was too busy with family and screwing around with new Chrimbus gifts anyway.

77. Living Forest and/or Goro's Lair. They're the Scorpion and Sub-Zero of stages. If not that, then at least 3 with Stage Fatalities.

78. The Spine Rip

79. HELL no! Otherwise it wouldn't be Mortal Kombat.

80. Pictured endings.

81. Tag mode is more of a novelty instead of a necessity in MK, to be quite honest.

[kadell]

76. A few. Only because they were things I didn't think about.

77. Kortal's Throne Room/Whoever-else-becomes-the-emperor's Throne Room.

78. None, but If I'm about to be finished I'd rather Raiden's Explosive Uppercut. It'll be quick and painless.

79. Sure.

80. I've been saying this since MK9, Cinematic Endings.

81. If they don't use Sareena, Jataaka, and Kia as a single character (with each of the three being a single variation), then I'd like for them to become a tag mode sub-boss character. Otherwise, It doesn't matter.

 

[Nasty_Freak]

76. No

77. The Lumber Mill from MKA with the giant circular saw as the stage fatality, splitting the victim vertically in half.

78. I'd want the least painful which would Shang Tsung's/The Joker's head shot with a pistol.

79. Yes

80. Cinematic

81. I want that mode!!!! And as far as character goes, I'd want Kia and Jataaka to be like Juli and Juni from Street Fighter Alpha 3. Sareen can remain her own character like Cammy.

 

[Taj Gill]

Question 76: No, but I was waiting patiently for new ones!

Question 77: I want to see an actual fighting arena revealed next, a la Kahn's Kolliseum, Shang Tsung's Courtyard, etc. as opposed to "environments".

Question 78: The Joker's Killing Joke.

Question 79: Definitely.

Question 80: Cinematic endings with the in-game engine, like arcade/N64 MK4, and more recently, the story mode of the latest games. Would look gorgeous in next-gen, and I heard Batman: Arkham Knight's cutscenes are going to be used with the in-game engine.

Question 81: No, Ferra-Torr is enough.

 

[Reptil3]

77.Describe what kind of new arena should we get if it'll be released during the next reveal?

- Inside a building would be nice lol, just kidding umm probably something similar to the following: the wind tower, the well or Elder Gods arena.

78. Out of all the fatalities we've seen in the series, what fatality would you want to have performed on you?

- Are you serious? None lol

79. Would you be okay with projectiles canceling each other out when colliding into each other such as what happens in Street Fighter?

- No. I like things the way they are keeps me alert makes me play harder, projectile spammers get combo punished to death easy anyway.

80. Cinematic endings or pictured endings?

- Honestly, I liked the endings in MK9 it was very anime/manga Esq but if possible I'd like to see them mix it up and have a bit of both.

81. Would you be okay having another tag team character in this game?

- No. One is enough, unless they implement a non playable tag team opponent for endurance mode where we fight them both separately.

 

[icyraven93]

76. Yes, it was difficult not answering questions.

77. If a new arena is revealed during next month's... reveal, it should be Quan Chi's fortress or something similar.

78. I would like to have Frost's Fatality performed on me. I would be frozen, so the Sparta kick would be painless.

79. I would be okay with that.

80. Cinematic endings.

81. Another tag team character would be fun to play as.

 

[Kitty_55]

I have four new questions up! Sorry, haven't been around my laptop these last few days.

 

[Tarkatan Trash]

82. Shinnok

83. NEITHER! They both blow!

84. I'd rather starve.

85. I'd be just fine without the Rage.

[Taj Gill]

Question 82: Liu Kang

Question 83: Dairou

Question 84: Beetles seem the most juicy.

Question 85: No.

 

[kadell]

82. Raiden

83. Darrius

84. Never.

85. No

 

[theincubuslord]

Who do you think is the end boss of this game?

- Well, NRS said it would be someone people didn't expect... Saying Liu Kang would be expecting it to be him, right?

Darrius or Dairou, who would you prefer to come back?

- I don't care much about either, but should I choose, I'd say Darrius.

D'Vorah has been shown to lick her bugs. She has you captured and wants you to eat some. Would you rather eat: roaches, centipedes, spiders, or dung beetles?

- Roaches. Preferably roasted. Roasted roaches. Sounds like that could be a thing.

Do you ever want to see the Rage come back?

- If there was another MKvsDCU game... still no.

 

[Ricochetmatt]

Screw it, I've got some time to kill before I pass out. And I'm a little behind.

Spoiler:

1. Who was the first ever character you played as in this series?
Not entirely sure. Probably Scorpion or Sub Zero.

2. What was the game you performed your first fatality?
Probably MK : Trilogy. Was too young to figure it out with MK1 and 2.

3. What is your all-time favorite Mortal Kombat game?
Trilogy or MK9.

4. What is your favorite mini game?
Test your Luck

5. What is your favorite arena?
I don't really have one.

6. What is your favorite stage fatality? (Death traps don't count)
The melting face fatality in MK9. Hell, I guess?

7. You are fighting Goro, you, yourself, and the object to your left is the only weapon you can use against him. What is that object?
An electronic cigarette. I'm screwed, I guess.

8. Create a fatality for your Least favorite character (Not really a question but whatever)
Bo' Rai Cho lifts his opponent up and pulls them down onto his staff, impaling them Cannibal Holocaust style.

9. If you can ask Ed Boon anything what would you ask him? It could be absolutely nothing about Mortal Kombat.
So the eyebrows, right.... Why?

10. Does Ermac really exist?
Uhm, yes?

Spoiler:

11. If you can finally end the rivalry, who would be the victor, Scorpion or Sub-Zero?
Sub Zero. Scorpion is already a tragic character. No sense in changing that.

12. What made you interested in Mortal Kombat?
It was a random game sitting in a pile of games that relatives had bought for me as a kid. I was hooked after my first play through.

13. What has been the best thing you've seen so far with Mortal Kombat X?
Sub Zero, duh.

14. What character did you like, but started to dislike?
Reptile. He gets worse and worse with every game.

15. What made you decide to join a fan forum for the series?
Boredom.

16. If there is to be another adventure game, what would you want it to be about?
The war between Shinnok and the Elder Gods.

17. What game has the best soundtrack?
Mortal Kombat 3/Trilogy or MK4.

18. What do you not like about Mortal Kombat X?
Kung Lao.

19. Would you like to see an art book showcasing every piece of art from this series? (Most likely be titled "The Art of Mortal Kombat" or something)
Obviously.

20. You can only pick ONE: Babalities, Friendships, or Brutalities?
Updated Friendships.

Spoiler:

21. Out of all the characters that got killed in 2011, what ONE character should come back to life?
Smoke. It doesn't make sense for him to stay dead.

22. The adventure games brought us interesting characters as bosses and such, out of all the adventure games we got, what character that has yet to be introduced in the fighting games should make their debut finally?
Tremor. I bet a lot of people said him.

23. Do you still want Shujinko's story to happen? (Him finding the Komidogus and such)
Not even a little.

24. Are you dressing up as any Mortal Kombat characters for Halloween?
Nope. Maybe one day.

25. Would you like to see a new realm come about?
Sure, why not? Bring in the new.

26. Since we've been told the boss of this game is going to be a "surprised returnee," would you like to see another returning character be a boss for a future game, or do you think it's time we get a brand new boss?
New boss time. Though I would like to see Shinnok get proper treatment at some point.

27. You have Tanya, Reiko and Fujin being the three most wanted MK4 characters (at least from what I've seen). You can only pick ONE that will NOT appear in this game, even as a cameo
Fujin. Sorry, dude. Nothing personal.

28. If there was going to be another movie made, what star would you choose to play your favorite character?
I honestly don't know. This requires a certain kind of thinking I'm not capable of right now.

29. Would you like to see "Choose Your Destiny" return?
Sure, why not?

30. Those who have portrayed Mortal Kombat characters from Mortal Kombat - Trilogy (And Mythologies), what live action actor would you like to get an autograph from? (I got one from Rich DiVizio, John Parrish, and Phillip Ann M.D.)
The woman who played Sonya in the first film. Or Cage.

Spoiler:

31. If a character suddenly got a spell casted on them that changed their gender, what character would you choose to gender swap?
Mileena. Just to see all the manly men cry over a slutty male character.

32.Killer Instinct (and probably other fighting games) have it where you can customize your fighter with certain outfits and pieces that goes along with it. Would you like to see something similar or are you okay with the primary/secondary costumes?
That would be awesome.

33. How are you feeling today?
Tired. And a little tipsy. But mostly good.

34. There's been talk about how people would like to see certain characters be "possessed" by other characters. The top three characters that have been discussed are: Jerrod possessing Ermac, the Mysterious woman possessing Jade, and Shao Kahn possessing Sub-Zero. Which ONE of these would you like to see come true?
The Ermac would be interesting, I guess.

35. We know that Sareena has a demonic forum that we have yet to see. Would you rather have that forum be playable or just be shown in cutscenes? This also applies to other characters that has this forum.
That would depend on the size of the demon.

36. If Quan Chi really dies in this game, who should be the one responsible for his death?
Scorpion. For sure.

37. What character do you think will start out in the first chapter in story mode?
I feel like it's going to be a new character.

38. Granted that weapon combat isn't returning for X, would you like to see it make a return for future games?
I don't really care.

39. Despite that he was only in as a joke, would you ever want to see Kidd Thunder return?
As a full grown adult and handled seriously, yes. The Kidd Thunder name needs to go, though.

40. Quan Chi's Neck Stretch is one of my favorite fatalities (no joke), would you like to see a fatality that is gore-less (such as Tanya's neck break fatality) or are you just for the blood?
So long as it's creative, I'm game.

Spoiler:

41. Are you interested in having another movie be made, and if so, what would you like it to be about?
Yes. And I would like a proper reboot going back to the first game's story.

42. Disregarding copyright claims, any character that was NOT created by Midway/Netherrealm Studios, would you like to see ever make an appearance in a game? (Like... Art Lean?
The Predator would be cool. And make more sense than say.... Kratos.

43. Always a touchy question, if Bo Rai' Cho is to return, should he keep his barf/fating moves or should they be ditched?
Ditch em, burn them, bury the ashes, cement the ground surrounding them.

44. When the DLC/guest characters gets added into the roster, do you want them to have what 2011 had with the slide out bar, be an entire row by itself, or something different?
An entire row. The slide out bar was annoying.

45. Mortal Kombat the movie was (in my opinion) a very good retell of the first game... And then there's Legacy. Mortal Kombat the movie or Mortal Kombat: Legacy, which one do you think is better?
The movie. Legacy was all over the place. Anyone new to the series would not be able to follow that mess.

46. As of right now, Edenia is still merged with Outworld. Do you want to see it become its own realm again, or should something different happen this time around?
Let it be its own realm.

47. Do you think there can be a different type of Mortal Kombat game, such as a card game (like Hearthstone) or a RPG, or anything else besides a fighter/adventure?
Absolutely.

48. Kira or Jerek, you must pick ONE to have redemption.
Jarek. Kira can go to Hell.

49. You find yourself up against the Deadly Alliance, they allow you to have a partner to even out the match, but your only choices are: Mokap or Meat (Armageddon version, not MK4), who would you choose and why?
Meat. He's got some ranged attacks that could be helpful. Also, f*** Mokap.

50. Sheeva may not be a fan favorite, if she isn't one of those you like, how would you change her? (Saying, "By not being in the game at all" is not an option)
Give her some purpose. Take away the grapple aspect and make her a decent fighter.

Spoiler:

51. Since today is Thanksgiving, what are you thankful for in Mortal Kombat?
Pass.

52. If Liu Kang is to return for this next game, playable or not, would you want him to be siding on the good side, the evil side, or be neutral?
Neutral or evil. I'd rather he just goes back to being dead, though.

53. Would you like to see Skarlet return?
Absolutely. There's a lot that can be done with her.

54. What would Mortal Kombat be like if Tobias was still around?
A lot darker and less overstuffed with crap characters.

55. What non-cyborg character would be interesting to suddenly turn cyborg?
Baraka would be interesting.

56. How do you think Kotal Kahn became Emperor of Outworld?
He took the throne by force.

57. Do you think Ferra Torr are: A.) Brother and sister B.) Husband and Wife C.) Good friends D.) Something else?
Something else.

58. We've seen guest characters enter the world of Mortal Kombat, but what series would you like to see a Mortal Kombat character appear and who shall it be?
I don't know. I'm not big on crossovers.

59. Did you know it's my birthday today?
....No?

60. While we have seen what Kitana did to her sister when she first met Mileena, what would YOU do in a situation where you saw a mutant clone of yourself?
I'd dig it. Become best buds.

Spoiler:

61. What combatant's powers would you like to possess and what would you do with them?
Rain. Yall better start building a huge ass boat.

62. The first time you saw Dan Forden's Toasty pop up, how did you react to it?
I laughed.

63. I've been in a Five Nights at Freddy's mood, would you ever want to see that little troll thing in the crypt to ever reappear again? And to make it interesting... he can sometimes pop in and out from the crypt as well. He likes to lurk in the menu screen...
Sure. My nerves are shot anyway.

64. If Raiden's life ended in X, who do you think might kill him and why would he/she do it?
If anything, I see him sacrificing himself. Don't worry though, he'll be back.

65. Kotal Kahn is said to have possession of Komidogus, how do you think he got in possession of them?
Not a clue.

66. If this is to be the last Mortal Kombat game ever, how would you react to that?
Shed a few tears and start writing fan fiction, I guess.

67. Taven or Daegon: Who would you want to see return?
Neither. They both need to stay away from the series.

68. 2011's secret fights were fun finding out how to get them, would you like to see more secret fights, even with newer characters being included with them?
MK9 had terrible secret content. I would like something closer to the original games. Completely new characters randomly popping up and people struggling to find out how to unlock them, if possible.

69. If "Test Your Luck" were to come back for this game (or any), what status effect would you make to see happen in a fight?
I don't know, really. Nudie combat. Cause f*** it.

70. Is there a new race of creatures would you like to see be introduced? We have Tarkatans, whatever D'Vorah is, humans, what are we missing?
Faeries. Yeah, I said it.

Spoiler:

71. What character do you hate, just truly hate, and don't think you'll ever come around liking them... And why do you hate that character?
Bo' Rai Cho. I shouldn't have to explain why.

72. What would you do with a giant, riding brute such as Torr?
Treat him like a princess.

73. There's a lot of talk about Mortal Kombat 4 lately due to many implying thoughts about the game following the fourth's story. What was your favorite thing about Mortal Kombat 4?
Reiko. Dat ass.

74. Would you want alternate costumes for X or do you think it'll be better without it?
Alternate costumes are a must.

75. What is the first thing you will do when you get X?
Practice Mode.

76. Was it hard not answering questions?
...

77. Describe what kind of new arena should we get if it'll be released during the next reveal?
Something dark and stormy.

78. Out of all the fatalities we've seen in the series, what fatality would you want to have performed on you?
Uh... None of them.

79. Would you be okay with projectiles canceling each other out when colliding into each other such as what happens in Street Fighter?
Would be interesting, I think.

80. Cinematic endings or pictured endings?
Cinematic.

Spoiler:

81. Would you be okay having another tag team character in this game?
Sure.

82. Who do you think is the end boss of this game?
Shinnok.

83. Darrius or Dairou, who would you prefer to come back?
Dairou.

84. D'Vorah has been shown to lick her bugs. She has you captured and wants you to eat some. Would you rather eat: roaches, centipedes, spiders, or dung beetles?
Roaches.

85. Do you ever want to see the Rage come back?
Not at all.

 

[Nasty_Freak]

82. If really unexpected, I'd probably say Johnny Cage. But I want Shinnok to be the boss.

83. Dairou

84. Fried and flavored roaches I guess.

85. Nah.

 

[Mr. Ice]

OK, I'm quite behind now LOL...

Forty-Fifth Question:

Mortal Kombat the movie was (in my opinion) a very good retell of the first game... And then there's Legacy. Mortal Kombat the movie or Mortal Kombat: Legacy, which one do you think is better?

MK1 the movie. It had a beginning, middle and end. While Legacy is a nice effort, it just feels... how it word it... low-cost... and chaotic. MK1 felt very real and true to the games. Legacy... not so much. More like an expensive fan-project. I'm amazed it actually came out on Blu-Ray LOL.

Forty-Sixth Question:

As of right now, Edenia is still merged with Outworld. Do you want to see it become its own realm again, or should something different happen this time around?

I wouldn't mind that. Let Edenia bloom. Or Edenia could take over Outworld and claim it.

Forty-Seventh Question:

Do you think there can be a different type of Mortal Kombat game, such as a card game (like Hearthstone) or a RPG, or anything else besides a fighter/adventure?

Yes, I do. And I would welcome that. There could be an online MMORPG game - something like Konquest Mode, but much bigger.

Forty-Eighth Question:

Kira or Jerek, you must pick ONE to have redemption.

I pick Jarek only to have him killed. Again. I'm bad I know haha. Kira reminds me of Harley Quinn.

Forty-Ninth Question:

You find yourself up against the Deadly Alliance, they allow you to have a partner to even out the match, but your only choices are: Mokap or Meat (Armageddon version, not MK4), who would you choose and why?

I'd go with Mokap. Hopefully he'd be able to capture and copy their moves.

Fiftieth Question:

Sheeva may not be a fan favorite, if she isn't one of those you like, how would you change her? (Saying, "By not being in the game at all" is not an option)

Update her look perhaps? Give her a bigger role in the story?

Fifty-First Question:

Since today is Thanksgiving, what are you thankful for in Mortal Kombat?

That was long ago LOL. I'm thankful for a great story and Sub-Zero.

Fifty-Second Question:

If Liu Kang is to return for this next game, playable or not, would you want him to be siding on the good side, the evil side, or be neutral?

Neutral with traits of evil, turning over time full fledged evil. Really evil.

Fifty-Third Question:

Would you like to see Skarlet return?

Yes. Her blood is boiling hot.

Fifty-Fourth Question:

What would Mortal Kombat be like if Tobias was still around?

Very, very different. More story focused with actually good new characters and arenas.

 

[Mr. Ice]

Fifty-Fifth Question:

What non-cyborg character would be interesting to suddenly turn cyborg?

Maybe some female.

Fifty-Sixth Question:

How do you think Kotal Kahn became Emperor of Outworld?

By killing Mileena, fighting Goro and betraying D'Vorah.

Fifty-Seventh Question:

Do you think Ferra Torr are: A.) Brother and sister B.) Husband and Wife C.) Good friends D.) Something else?

Good friends that met in Outworld. An orphan and homeless mutant.

Fifty-Eighth Question:

We've seen guest characters enter the world of Mortal Kombat, but what series would you like to see a Mortal Kombat character appear and who shall it be?

Not entirely sure what you mean, but... Maybe Sub-Zero in Marvel vs Capcom.

Fifty-Ninth Question:

Did you know it's my birthday today?

Nope.

Sixtieth Question:

While we have seen what Kitana did to her sister when she first met Mileena, what would YOU do in a situation where you saw a mutant clone of yourself?

I would ask him to get lost or get their face fixed.

Sixty-First Question:

What combatant's powers would you like to possess and what would you do with them?

Easy. Sub-Zero's freezing abilities. Freeze time.

Sixty-Second Question:

The first time you saw Dan Forden's Toasty pop up, how did you react to it?

Was surprised. Didn't know what the hell it was.

Sixty-Third Question:

I've been in a Five Nights at Freddy's mood, would you ever want to see that little troll thing in the crypt to ever reappear again? And to make it interesting... he can sometimes pop in and out from the crypt as well. He likes to lurk in the menu screen...

No. I thought it was cheap and dumb.

Sixty-Fourth Question:

If Raiden's life ended in X, who do you think might kill him and why would he/she do it?

Liu Kang for being pissed. Or Shinnok perhaps.

Sixty-Fifth Question:

Kotal Kahn is said to have possession of Komidogus, how do you think he got in possession of them?

Stole them. I doubt he earned it.

 

[Mr. Ice]

Sixty-Sixth Question:

If this is to be the last Mortal Kombat game ever, how would you react to that?

Normally. I wouldn't be surprised at all since it's something I've been suggesting for a long time.

Sixty-Seventh Question:

Taven or Daegon: Who would you want to see return?

Hm. Probably Taven. Probably.

Sixty-Eighth Question:

2011's secret fights were fun finding out how to get them, would you like to see more secret fights, even with newer characters being included with them?

Yes, for sure!

Sixty-Ninth Question:

If "Test Your Luck" were to come back for this game (or any), what status effect would you make to see happen in a fight?

Not sure what you mean.

Seventieth Question:

Is there a new race of creatures would you like to see be introduced? We have Tarkatans, whatever D'Vorah is, humans, what are we missing?

Yes. Demons. Give Sareena some room.

Seventy-First Question:

What character do you hate, just truly hate, and don't think you'll ever come around liking them... And why do you hate that character?

Hm. Probably Jerek and Tanya. Found them annoying in MK4.

Seventy-Second Question:

What would you do with a giant, riding brute such as Torr?

City Rampage!

Seventy-Third Question:

There's a lot of talk about Mortal Kombat 4 lately due to many implying thoughts about the game following the fourth's story. What was your favorite thing about Mortal Kombat 4?

Its fast pace and sound effects. And the 3D at the time.

Seventy-Fourth Question:

Would you want alternate costumes for X or do you think it'll be better without it?

Would want, but it will work better without them.

Seventy-Fifth Question:

What is the first thing you will do when you get X?

Story Mode.

Seventy-Sixth Question:

Was it hard not answering questions?

Nope.

Seventy-Seventh Question:

Describe what kind of new arena should we get if it'll be released during the next reveal?

Desert/Dungeon/Spiritual.

Seventy-Eighth Question:

Out of all the fatalities we've seen in the series, what fatality would you want to have performed on you?

LOL. None. But I wouldn't mind a kiss.

Seventy-Ninth Question:

Would you be okay with projectiles canceling each other out when colliding into each other such as what happens in Street Fighter?

Yes, but only if well implemented - ie. where it makes sense.

Eightieth Question:

Cinematic endings or pictured endings?

Cinematic. So much better.

Eighty-First Question:

Would you be okay having another tag team character in this game?

Maybe.

Eighty-Second Question:
Who do you think is the end boss of this game?

Hard to say. Hopefully Liu Kang. If not him then Shinnok. If not Shinnok then I don't know. Then it could be anyone. Hopefully nothing stupid.

Eighty-Third Question:

Darrius or Dairou, who would you prefer to come back?

Dairou.

Eighty-Fourth Question:

D'Vorah has been shown to lick her bugs. She has you captured and wants you to eat some. Would you rather eat: roaches, centipedes, spiders, or dung beetles?

Beetles. Because all you need is love.

Eighty-Fifth Question:

Do you ever want to see the Rage come back?

Yes. Was fun I think. But the SuperMeter is basically its spriritual successor I think. So then I guess no.

 

[icyraven93]

82. I bet it's either Quan Chi or Shinnok.

83. I'd prefer Dairou to come back.

84. Uh... spiders?

85. Sorry, but no.

 

[Kitty_55]

There are two questions up that are related to the release of the latest character!
