Fatalities are getting worse by the minute

Well we have seen melting faces in Hells' stage fatality, so I'm sure they have added that effect to Reptile's fatality by now.

You got me on Raiden's fatality, you (unlike other members) posted an alternate fatality THAT IS ACTUALLY POSSIBLE. Not some crazy ass long Michael Bay explosion filled monstrosity.

You are a joy to discuss and debate with. You have intelligence in your posts and I respect that.

Thanks, the feeling is mutual! Always a pleasure debating with you!

That's kind of my main complaint I guess, that the technology is there in the game already, it just seems that they are not fully utilizing it to its potential. I remember reading, in the interview with Ed Boon and Stig Asmussen, that the Sony team had to critique NRS several times over the get Kratos' fatalities and animation right. If you watch the video of Kratos in motion, he is one of the most smoothly animated MK9 characters. His moves are flowing and rounded. They have weight to them and he moves realistically according to gravity in an unrealistic setting. Unlike Scorpion's kite-throw and Mileena's double kick throw, he is animated much more fluidly. I know that I haven't seen but a SMALL portion of what MK9 has to offer, so I still keep my hopes high and fingers crossed that all will be well in the end. I want this to be the best MK period. If that makes me a 'greedy' MK fan, then I am proud to be such.
 
Who worked on Kratos?
In the Stig and Boon interview they said NRS worked on Kratos.
But a while ago, I was told San Monica, Montico, something like that (Sorry if I'm butchering the name lol) was working on him.
 
Well, we know Scorpion's TOASTY! is in the game, for one, so I'd be extremely surprised if the other wacky classic ones didn't work their way back in.

Sony Santa Monica heads development of the God of War games. NRS build their 'own' Kratos for MK9 under the direction of Sony Santa Monica. SSM critiqued NRS throughout the creation of Kratos in MK and in the end had the final say over everything Kratos in MK. Mark my words, he will be a loved, respected, and balanced guest in MK9. He will most likely have some of the best fatalities in the game, if SSM's God of War games foreshadow SSM's guidance over these with NRS.

I sure hope they are in there TT! I can't wait to see them if so. As for Scorpion's Toasty, I pre-ordered from Gamestop just for this! I hope it doesn't disappoint!
 
Why doesnt anyone bring up Liu Kang's or Kano's fatailty? Those are so orignal kompared to everyone elses. Reptile isn't the only one that is different.
 
Kitana's Splitting headache was a MAJOR IMPROVEMENT for her!!! I'm so proud that they made her do that. Now I hope Kitana will have her Kiss of Doom back and I hope Jade will impale her victim like what Vlad the impaler does since a lot of people have been commenting on youtube about that when we see the "Half-Mast" fatality video. All good though. Mileena really needs to have a part 2 in her "Rip-Off" fatality where she'd eat the opponent's guts after tossing their torso off. Something like that. I hope it will be upgraded in a future patch!!!

Wow I remember this thread lol. I still love the fatalities. People need to remember MK3 and realise that we've got it much better than we ever had. At least it isn't exploderama time every other fatality with 13 legs and for skulls.

Oh that is true too. lol :-)
 
I think the Jax growing giant MK3 was the point where the fatalitys were just too ridiculous, and yea i think that's worse than the babality/friendship finnishers in 2 and 3.

Regaurdless fatalitys are awesome and it is a travesty to purposely not perform them
 
they never made it clear that you actually die when sheeva does her second fatality, she may have ripped your arms off and slapped you a few good times, but you can still live from that

you could have gotten up and ran away while sheeva was being a bit.ch and clapping your hands together.


thats the worst fatality to me
 
Raidens fatality where he swaps the brain and arse around then explodes the body is the most weird and stupidest EVER!!!!!



also Rains one where he looks like he's goona chop the head off looks lame as f.......

Actually, the second slap breaks the characters neck, which, unless properly administered in a Slow Motion X-Ray fashion, aparantly a killing blow....
 
Besides the fact that slap is neck-breaking like Demetrius said, having severed arms is nothing to sneeze at. People who have severed limbs can bleed to death without immediate medical treatment. Furthermore, it's not that easy to get up without your arms to lift your body up.
