How will the human versions of Cyrax and Sektor play?

Let me preface this by saying the Human form of Cyrax is incredibly badass. I will use him regularly in that form. (I take it you've all seen the BADASS pictures of Human Cyrax, Human Sektor, and Sheeva's 3rd Fatality!)

However, I have absolutely no idea how the human versions of these two will play. There move sets are based on shooting bombs, missles, green nets, and teleporting with their cyborg parts. Will they have completely different move sets or some sort of variation of moves similar to the ones of their cyborg counterparts?
 
Well it does not look like nothin is coming out of there chest. LoL. I see that Cyrax has his bombs on his waist and looks like Sektor has a flame thrower on his arms. I wondering how the net and the missiles are going to work.

It would almost be like playing with two new characters if there moves work differently which they should.

That's my point. They are gonna be like completely different characters. I mean you can literally add them to the list of different characters. This character roster is STACKED...lol
 
Well on the life bar it just says Sektor and Cyrax. It does not say Human Sektor or Human Cyrax indicating that it would be a different character. But I don't see how they are going to incorporate the net and the missile attacks without changing some animations with the characters.
 
This should def. be in the spoilers forum... the title alone is more than what some people want to see!!!!!

But yeah, should be interesting. Maybe human Cyrax like to fish in his spare time and could still throw a net. That would be totally awesome.... no, not really actually!
 
Spoilers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hate you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Wow we shouldn't let anyone with a new account this month

to post threads

they seem to stupid to understand the concept of spoilers...
 
wow...once again ppl crying about spoilers for a fighting game..go change your tampons ladies....anyways, im excited to see how human Cyrax will play since he's my fav borg..im more curious as to how the buzsaw will work on his alt.
 
How come sub zero can shoot freeze balls from his hand but sektor can't shoot fire from his palms? plus cyrax can have some kind of aura or something. example he can teleport with green flames instead of breaking apart and forming again, and he can shoot a net from hands or something. get wut i mean or is it stupid?
 
I'm going to guess, as someone in a different post stated, that if the human versions of Cyrax and Sektor are playable outside of the story, then they will be different characters. Similarly to
Spoiler:
Sub-Zero and Sub-Zero (Cyborg) have the same name, but are, in fact, two different characters.

That being said, if human Cyrax is available, my team will probably change to Smoke and human Cyrax.

I don't think the concept is stupid at all. Sub-Zero has his freezing powers because he's a cryomancer. Smoke has his smoke powers because he was born with them. It would make sense that Cyrax and Sektor (being the other 2 of the Lin Kuei's top four assassins) be born with some kind of "supernatural" ability. Only problem with Sektor having fire abilities is that he would be similar to Scorpion. However, Cyrax having some kind of plasma abilities would be awesome, and it would further develop the character's back story.

I personally think that Human Sektor and Human Cyrax will be playable in the same way that Human Smoke was playable in UMK3.
You'd have to input some kind of secret input to play as them once the match started.

Think about it.... they have NO VERSUS SELECT SCREEN PIC!

What does that tell you? It seems like NRS is keeping the nostalgia from morphing a cyborg into a human through holding something down as soon as you select a character.

I think these characters might play a little differently but I just don't know.... will Human Sektor have something instead of missiles? Will these new projectiles have the same properties, start up lag, and ending lag as cyborg Sektor's missiles? Will they have an additional special move or replace a special move? Cyrax obviously still has his bombs and I don't think they'd take away his net but I don't know.... only time will tell on how they actually play. They'll definitely have their own fatalities o_O

I was thinking about one of those rope nets with weights on them that people use to capture stuff. Not sure what they're called.

Either that, alt costume, or in the "DLC" box.
 
If those are alternate costumes, they should have the same exact animations because they are just skins, and that means firing rockets from the chest and stuff, so it's highly unlikely. Plus we don't know if they are playable as stand alone characters or just in story mode: Human Sektor is in Raiden's vignette so for sure they are part of story mode, and if they are just there then they don't even have fatalities.
The most logical answer would be: alternate VERSIONS of Ketchup and Mustard, maybe with the same moves or different moves with the same properties.
BUT.... both have spoken intros and apparently winning poses: I don't think during story mode in each fight characters will have intros and winning poses so there's a chance those are alt costumes but with the same moves/properties and different animations to look more "human".
