well, after watching the first MK film, I think a cool new character for the game would be Lui Kang's younger brother- Chang. thoughts?
 
well i don't mean to shut you down or anything, but doesn't it seem like it would just be another liu kang? I feel like 2 shaolin monks is enough.

I agree, like Hansplusmatic, not tryn to knock you, but if your going to add a new character, let it be an orignal. not to mention im not the Biggest Liu Kang fan to begin with...lol!
but if they were to introduce Chang- he coould be a corrupted Shaolin Monk fighting for Shao Kahn or who ever! just a thought!
 
How's this sound?

New "Serious, Dark, Gritty" MK introduces new character: CHANG KANG!!!

Derp derp derp. :|
 
If there should be a new character introduced in the next game, it should be "Hornbuckle" but with a new name. Why, because he was already in MK2 as a figure fighting against Blaze (who was already introduced in MKDA).
 
Yeah those two characters back there shouldn't become characters. New characters in this game just doesn't seem like the path we want to go in. This is all about what's been and how we are going to make it better.

Sent from my Moment while I should be working...
 
How are people comparing this to Trilogy, especially in a bad light? That's just stupid. The best characters in MK are its classics, and this game looks amazing thusfar. Why y'all wanna ruin a good thing with new filth is beyond me.

i think you got another point, her if your going to add a new character it should be someone/thing that we've seen in the MK world but know pretty much nothing about. "Hornbuckle" being introduced with a new name and design i think would be a great start!
 
Hornbuckle is really quite insignificant, and really not interesting. He's a palette-swapped Liu Kang, that was a generic Onaga Priest that captured Blaze. That's it. Go play Mugen if you want pointless characters in a game.

i never thought id say this, but i agree with u on that. i dont want to see characters there for no reason just for the sake of being there. that would be stupid.
 
While most character designs post-MK3 have been disappointing to me, I'm open to the possbility of new characters.

That's just KS and his typical trolling. MKT is the sloppiest MK fighter I've played. EVERYTHING about it felt rushed.

On the other hand, the new game appears to be the most planned, most strategically developed MK game ever, so to seriously make such a comparison is asinine.

I watched MK again a week or so ago, too. Hadn't seen it in probably 3 years. Reminded me of why everything after UMK3 sucked. NONE of the "crucial" characters that appear after UMK3 (Quan Chi, Shinnok, etc.) were even a glimmer in Team MK's eyes, let alone an integral part of the story.
 
I have MKT, but never played it because I always felt it was "meh" compaired to previous versions. That and I had the PS version which was about the worst version if memory serves me right. It was seriously unbalanced though. About all it added to the series was new Johnny Cage sprites or something like that...
 
I always felt that mk3 was the only true game. Umk and mkt were made while they could have been working on brand new games and mechanics. Fixing the run button and turning it into anything else would have been a good start.

How? Thus far, all signs indicate that every character in the first three MKs will be in the new one. What other game also had this? Trilogy. I never (and am not) suggested the game won't be good; I'm merely pointing out that (character wise) its just like Trilogy. I don't see why everyone is getting their panties in a wad.
 
from the movie, i'd rather see Art Lean than Chan Kang. (in the cannon comic it was spelled Chow Kang). From the actual game, give me Tremor, Tasia, or No Face. Keep Hornbuckle on the shelf; or in M.U.G.E.N JAJAJAJAJJAJAJAJAJJA.
