The rise and fall of Kotal Kahn, and both Kotal Kahn & D'Vorah working together at 1 point?
Seems cool.

As for the -ality, I know that it would be a shit-load of animations, but I would love to see a single dedicated finisher input for Tag -alities (that's if Tag Team mode is in, of course).
Maybe it can be called "Duality." :)

Same here, man. :)
I'm more excited for MK X than I was for MK9.
The gameplay variations look awesome and it seems faster than Injustice, the story sounds interesting and the darker character designs and new stages look great.

i do think i remember Boon saying something about no tag this time around.

"It's not completely off the table, but it wasn't one of the most used things. I thought our implementation was awesome but for the most part what it boiled down to was that players wanted their character. "

in fact, i believe this was the TRMK review, was it not? anyway i ALWAYS played tag team and am really hoping for its return.
I loved tag so much because i was able to pick my main while still practicing with other characters. Plus i felt like matches were longer.

Man,I seriously think that NRS have out done themselves this time.I don't see what can go wrong with this.The story mode will be epic .I hope they took note that we all want to see some characters die this time.RIP Kano...you had a long run hahaha.

Yeah, I rember that Boon said that, but it's more of my wishful thinking.

I LOVE Tag Team mode in MK9, and I even made a thread for Tag Team combos here, back in December 2011, but it died down. :(

I would love tag mode .I mained Johnny cage and mileena and I had lots of nice combos and mixups.i played tag mode waaaay more than I played 1 on 1.the matches where longer and people couldn't get those lucky wins as much.

i NEVER see people use actual tag team combos in MK9...I'm glad i wasn't the only one who saw how incredibly awesome they were

I don't see why they would just leave it out...MK9's online barley had enough game modes (1v1, 2v2, KOTH) i waas reallllllly hoping for a crazy amount of online stuff.
imagine choosing between 1v1, 2v2, KOTH, and other game modes like a tournament mode, or CHESS KOMBAT, or some other cool unique modes.
I loved KOTH, but only if i was winning...seriously, waiting 15 minutes just to play the same guy who's wayyyyyyyy to good is not fun. I know he said they are working on a new mode that will allow everybody to play at once, but i hope its not the only new mode.
because 1v1 and this "new game" might not be enough for people who only play games online nowadays.
 
I'm really interested in the whole rise and fall of Kotal Khan story. I remember Steve Beran saying back at E3 that D'Vorah would play a big role in the story. Since both Kotal Kahn and D'Vorah were working together at one point. I'm thinking both of them had a fight over issues when it came to ruling outworld. Or D'Vorah found out the truth what Kotal Kahn was doing to her people in terms of enslaving and/or murdering them. Maybe she seeks Raiden's and the forces of light's help to overthrow Kotal Kahn in the story?

She just seems so evil I can't see D'vorah helping our guys out.But however Boon did that there would be a twist....Evil Lui Kang??
 
I really like all of the new character designs, and at this point I'm confident they'll handle any returning characters just fine. On the subject of new characters though, while I'm really digging the dark fantasy style of these new designs I'm also hoping maybe we get one or two that kind of pay tribute to the pseudo asian/martial arts theme of the original game.
 
What I am most worried by is the console exclusives... I am still traumatized by Tomb Raider, but I would hate if a MK fighter was a console exclusive, I've always hated that about Khameleon. Give XOne and PS3 their own non-MK fighters exclusives all you want, for I care they're pretty pointless like Kratos or Freddy. Now, releasing Tremor exclusively for WiiU for example would be the Apocalypse for me. I surely hope NRS respect the fans on this issue to be honest...

For the other news: Kotal's reign will be short-lived. Mileena is pretty much is in, at least as DLC. However it's still very hard to imagine their story since I am pretty sure we're left on at least 8 new characters we don't know or heard yet. We can pretty much assume Kotal will be a boss at some point (much like Shang Tsung was) and he's playable. I am expecting the same for Shinnok. D'Vorah and Kotal have a relantionship and D'Vorah is most like part of an Outworld race. Pretty exciting about the story!

I hope their choose their roster wisely this time around: the 7 classics are in plus at least 12 new characters. That leaves a very short room for more characters and I really want MK4 characters in this game! At least Shinnok, Quan Chi, Reiko, Fujin and Tanya.

I'm pretty sure that by console exclusive characters Ed Boon meant guest characters (for example Sony characters like Kratos which are owned by Sony, Microsoft characters like Master Chief which are owned by Microsoft), as a console exclusive MK character would be excluded from tournaments.
 
I like the new info. Kotal Kahn is the new ruler of Outworld for 25 years then what's going to happen to Onaga? Onaga returns at the end of MKDA in the original timeline and MKDA states it been 10 years since MK1 happen. Will Onaga return later then he did in the original timeline or he is gone for good. I feel like Onaga was one of the coolest post-MK4 characters.
 
Damn, notice how he said "One of the rulers during the 25 year peroid"
I wonder who else is taking over? Guess that means Mileena still has a chance.



Also I'm excited for these exclusive characters. I'm guessing Sweet Tooth or Kratos for PS4 and Fulgore for XB1.
Doesn't matter much to me since I'm getting both versions :laugh:
 
I can see Onaga returning once Kotal Kahn is defeated. I'm looking forward to see his story mode since he's my favorite new character they show off so far. The PS3 and PS4 versions will likely get Sweet Tooth while the 360 and XO get nothing again. At least there will be a DLC guest fighter to shut up the Xbox fans.

Isn't KI rated T? I don't think they'll use a character from a T rated game.

I dunno, it's a stupid reason to why.. I really just wanted to post in this thread.
 
Aren't they adding fatalities to KI though?
I thought I read that somewhere.


Besides, the original KI is rated M.
