Motoro as another boss

It would be nice if they added FREE DLC to make Motoro another boss along with Goro and Kintaro. I understand they may have held off because the x-ray moves would be difficult.
 
Only if they do an 2nd universal X-Ray only used against Motaro, adapted to his body shape .... but, could be boring seeing 27 characters doing the same X-Ray on him all the time, hehe ...... XD
 
You mean, pay money so some guy could kick my ass a bunch?
That doesn't make any sense at all.

I've actually never played an mk game with motaro in it so I really don't care.
 
I would like him to be back as a boss only if they made him look like his MK3 look, not his MKA.

I think that goes without saying, doesn't it? There are very few things the entire fanbase can agree on unanimously, but one would surely be that a two-legged Motaro sucks.
 
Two legged Motaro = trash


I like Motaro, though he was a ***** to beat at times in MK3/UMK3/Trilogy.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. I remember plenty of people welcoming the perversion of Motaro's design, thinking it more practical for MKA's gameplay. In short, settling for mediocrity.

As for the X-Ray issue, just make him immune to some of them, such as Jax's. But while I hate laziness, the thought of Jax lifting Motaro in the air amuses me.
 
It wouldn't be lazy, it would be somewhat nostalgic.

MK3 Motaro couldn't be hit with projectiles (Sometimes, I remember hitting him with a few).
It made you switch your style up a small bit.

MK9 Motaro should be immune to X-rays, grapples, and pop-ups (instead of popping him up it knocks him back).
 
I loved motaro, personally i think he should return, tho for next game.
i know what yall going to say, but remember, patience, we waited so long for a good mk game, am sure couple of more years of wait is not that bad, and they have to have some surprices for the next game aswell :)
 
I think its such a waste though.

They made his model, which was detailed as **** BTW.
He had veins in his chest and everything :(

I was actually referring to all x-rays working on Motaro. Just imagine Jax, or Scorpion, doing their X-rays on him. Hilarious visuals, aren't they? Such laziness, coming from NRS, wouldn't surprise me even remotely.
 
Not having Motaro in the game wasn't about NRS being lazy. It was about the difficulty of getting something with such a drastically different body type to work in-game...they'd probably have had to write up extended boss programming that only applied to him. I mean, screw the armor that the other bosses have...like bbblp already said: he'd have to be completely immune to entire attacks and certain gameplay strategies.
 
Seeing as MK9's gameplay was pretty much the old games' but with 3D backgrounds and characters, properly incorporating him would, or should not have been a problem. But if they weren't gonna do him right, then it was smart not to include him as a gameplay character. If only they excluded him from MKA instead of butchering him.

Storywise though, he truly got the shaft. I know that's not what's this topic's about however, so carry on.
 
Could be possible if they gave all or at least most his moves/specials the uppermost priority over other character's specials.

It would be hard as hell, but hey, thats what MK bosses are for :)

And it could really make up for the pushover he was in MK3.
 
I know this isn't what this thread's for, but I've had this idea for a while and want to post it so badly.

Motaro's X-ray: grabs his opponent, and throws him/her headfirst into the ground, resulting in the victim dropping on his/her belly afterward. Motaro then rises his front legs high in the air, and crushes his opponent's coccyx. He ends his attack by crushing his opponent's upper back with his hind legs. Only survivable if you have a full health bar, or you're Shao Kahn.
 
I want Motaro to be BIGGER DAN A MUDDA****A!

I mean at least 40% of the screen.

And he needs to be on you, trample move, anti-air grab, armored-grab.
Yeah, I want this ****er to be tough :)
 
I understand why they didn't put him in the ladder mod but they should have put him at least in a Challenge Tower fight and disable the x-ray feature.
