nokidding's thread of 'brilliant' ideas

Re: hi-tech cyborg - stryker like the character from tron legacy (best looking film e

I think Stryker should be scrapped completely. The guy has no story, his fan base is little to none, and he doesn't even slightly look cool.
Unless they can make him a complete badass, I say drop him in favor of someone more deserving.
 
Re: hi-tech cyborg - stryker like the character from tron legacy (best looking film e

If Stryker is going to be cyborg, I want to see his human face in a cyborg outfit. He can wear some kind helmet similar to a motorcycle helmet. That would be HOT! In other words, make him look like a cyborg who's in a full dirt-biking suit with technology in it. ;)

Guys, really. What's so hard about having Stryker look like this and he just having a good story? Take away the helmet and just make him like this. Seriously, guys. Why does he have to be cybernetic or futuristic?
 
Re: hi-tech cyborg - stryker like the character from tron legacy (best looking film e

wil try to draw a cool stryker this weekend.
I can come-up with a cool story, fatalities, and looks for this dude.

because if he looks just like a normal milatary guy hed look boaring an out of place in outworld, why would you want a charactor that looks like theyre from one of those real life war games in the MK universe? in MK3 he stood out like a sore thumb because he was just an ordinary cop fighting sorceres and cyber ninjas and lizard men ect and just did not fit in, fair enough sonya was kind of the same but she was out to get kano so had a good story and reason to be in outworld, Stryker was a boaring character and not very popular so making him look advanced would give him a better story and fit him into the outworld universe nicely. making him an even match for all the bizare and outrageous warriors outworld beholds.
 
Re: hi-tech cyborg - stryker like the character from tron legacy (best looking film e

Dude. He's from Earth Realm. ALSO. Your point is moot because his design originally was weak on the costume. So yeah. Of course he's going to look out of place in outworld. Sonya, Jax, Kano, Liu Kang, and Johnny Cage look out of place in outworld too. You don't see Sonya rockin' any sci-fi shit. She's just a badass *****. Why can't Stryker just be a badass dude? Wearing a stealthy looking set of BDUs is way better looking than Stryker's original look and it's way better looking than some robo-cop derivative. Guy, sometimes less is more.

^in that case lets pray stryker aka max payne wanabee doesnt make it in the roster
even human smoke and cyborg smoke will be better than stryker. unless stryker is transformed theres no hope for him
ok the first pic doesnt really fit in mk. here is a more serious pic of a futuristic super soldier (pic from vanquish)

Dude. Stop it. A cybernetic soldier is plain silly. Jax already has that taken care of. Now I'm not going to argue that Stryker should be totally plain. I'd love to see him use high tech gadgetry like 007, that'd be sweet. But the man doesn't have to be a robot or have any sort of cybernetic enhancements to be a good character. I think a mix of the pic I posted and the pic of that Robo-Nazi with the design favoring the pic I posted would be pretty killer. Give the man a solid storyline maybe a little related to taking on the Red Dragon in the cities of the USA and you've got a pretty decent character. He may not be the best, but he'd be a vast improvement without having yet another retarded robot to fight. A character NEEDS personality. Cybernetic enhancements do not equal personality.

i dont give a **** what anyone says no mk character design can match that shit
 
Re: hi-tech cyborg - stryker like the character from tron legacy (best looking film e

Hell... why not just make him look like Robocop with some LED accents?
 
Re: hi-tech cyborg - stryker like the character from tron legacy (best looking film e

Eks. You must hate me or something. What did I ever do to you?
 
Re: hi-tech cyborg - stryker like the character from tron legacy (best looking film e

Heehee. I wasn't talking about the one you posted. That Tron-esque... thing is ridiculous, and if they did anything close to that he would be even more hated.

I can actually see the one you posted being cool. Give him some smoke bombs, a tazer, and some other non-lethal weaponry and that design is cool. Then, as a snub to all the anti-Stryker folks, give him that pink patch just to prove how little he gives a damn.
 
Re: hi-tech cyborg - stryker like the character from tron legacy (best looking film e

I don't think there's anything they can do for Stryker to be accepted. He can't be military thats for Jax, can't be cybernetic we have enough of those already, he can't stay a cop that would be too boring.
I think the ONLY reason some people liked Stryker was for his combos in MK3.
The guy is out of his league son, I say drop him :P
 
Re: hi-tech cyborg - stryker like the character from tron legacy (best looking film e

I agree with Kontankarite and i like his idea of a Navy Seals outfit for Stryker. He just needs to look better...
and don't make him a cyborg or give him all kinds of futuristic stuff.
 
Re: hi-tech cyborg - stryker like the character from tron legacy (best looking film e

No one is saying make him a normal cop. Do you guys have any idea how completely bad ass a SWAT team actually is? Or how completely badass the FBI actually is? Just make Stryker like that, but make him the elite of the elite when it comes to those kinds of policing. No one is saying MK needs a traffic cop. But if the dude has to be a cop, then make him the absolute best, most elite cop/SWAT dude ever.

Lol You don't drop a character due to lack of an imagination. You work to improve the character. Someone like Stryker can easily be made worthy of this game.

Like Kontankarite said... Make him a bad-ass SWAT team member or something. The character has a lot of potential.
 
Re: hi-tech cyborg - stryker like the character from tron legacy (best looking film e

he is not worth the hassle for a few ppl to like him. sonya and jax are enough. leave him out of mk pls. a badass cop aka max payne wanabee. no thanks!
 
Re: hi-tech cyborg - stryker like the character from tron legacy (best looking film e

I think it isn't fair to judge about Stryker being or not being in MK9. I am not a fan and it's a character I do not care about, but there are people who like him. For them it will be a disappointment not to have a character they like in the new game where Boon said all characters from MK1-UMK3 will be in. I think in UMK3 Stryker wasn't bad. Maybe NR will give him a little bit more story but I admit that even Quan Chi has more influence on MK1-MK3 without even being in one of those games than Stryker.
If Stryker is in I don't want him to be a Robocop. Whether he is this way he was or not at all!
BTW I like the cyborgs but I think there are enough with Sektor and Cyrax. That's why I want to see Human Smoke. The best Human Smoke was in SM
 
specific entrances - enhanced

characters have entrances, taunting their opponent. what if classic rivalries/friends have their own when two of them are chosen.

Scorpion: do you mind if i smoke?
Smoke: i dont care if you burn!

Stryker: tell the rest about the time i defeated the elder gods.
Raiden: that didnt happen stryker
Stryker: lol tell them anyway

Sonya: nut up or shut up!
Kano: you talkin to me?

Scorpion: no
Sub-Zero: yes
Scorpion: but you were plain zero
