Predicting tomorrow's Fatality Friday

Doc said:
It'll be a Liu Kang fatality wallpaper if anything. NRS marketing is at least consistant (coughPREDICTABLEcough) in the order it releases stuff. After that we'll get a "what would you do" vid, an environmental bio, a vignette and a combo video.

If I had to choose what was released today, it'd be about ten solid minutes of actual gameplay footage. Not one-sided combos, not X-Rays...but two people showing off how good of a fighting game this is going to be.

If I was showing inforomation today. I'd have a full tag team gameplay of Sonya and Jax vs Liu Kang and Ermac in a new stage. Then as a fatality, Sonya would finish Ermac off.

Sounds cool and all, but personally it sounds like a bit much to reveal all at once. At least, that's how I feel. I'm one of those people that are in the mindset that "less is more", so it could just be me.

Personally, I'd be content with Liu's wallpaper, and a video talking about something stupid like they usually do for the characters. A vignette would be nice, but that's probably a week or two away. Then again, it could be something completely un-related to Liu Kang altogether for all I know.

Though, Rigo did say he was looking through cinematics trying to find the best angles, for a video he is starting to work on. So I am guessing we'll be getting a nice splice or teaser of the storymode sometime in the next couple of weeks or something. That, or he's just trying to get a small clip of Liu's storymode cinematic like they did for the others. I guess time will tell...

I agree that sometimes less is more. When a game is first being announced, less is definitely more; but when a game is about five weeks from going gold, less info can send the wrong message.

IMO, there's something either wrong wtih the marketing or something wrong with the game itself when NRS is treating the release of wallpapers and renders with the same relative importance as they do with actual gameplay content (e.g. the X-Ray thing being released last Thursday/Friday and a shadow wallpaper released Monday) this late in the game's development.

At this point, if they're releasing wallpapers at all, they should be releasing like five or six at once...instead of "revealing" one at a time. Or better yet, every week, releasing ALL the videos and wallpaper for a character at one time...not dragging what little info they give us for each character over two or three weeks.

Now that I think of it, they released the "what would you do" segment for mileena before her vignette. So we might get that today with Liu.

Yeah, but these "what would you do" videos don't have a certain order to follow. If I'm not wrong, Scorpion's one came before anything else about him. Sub-Zero's one also did not come between the shadow wallpaper and the render. It could either be this video for Liu Kang or the render wallpaper that we get today.

You're probably right. I wouldn't need to see a fight between Jax/Sonya vs Jade/Ermac. If it was only Scorpion/Sub-Zero vs. Kung Lao/Sonya, it'd be enough to keep me satisfied for some days.

Or, he could be just editing the video for the game, it doesn't mean he's going to reveal anything to us. But I hope so...

I'd have Ermac and Sindel vs Sonya and Jax. Then, Sindel finishes off Jax. lol ;-)
 
I really don't kare what it is. As long as it is something about Liu Kang, I would be more happy:DDDDD.

But hey, its better nothing.
 
I would definitely pre-order the new MK game even if Jade's first fatality is similar to her MKT fatalities or her MKD Body Slice. But of course, I'm hoping for something similar to what Vlad the Impaler would do!!!
 
greedy or not i don't really care...other characters need spotlight too you know? why it would be Liu Kang again? yes i like him, but he's confirmed and all that, we've seen him atleast in 5 sec action he looks sick and all, but thats it...lets now see someone else...

Who is Vlad the Impaler?
Click to expand...

Vlad "the Impaler" is a Prince of Wallachia (in Transylvannia) who ruled around the 15th century.
His moniker of "Impaler" originated in killing opponents by impalement.

Basically, he would stab you through and through with a pole (usually with the pole going in your ass, and out through your mouth) and leave you to die, as your blood drained out.

Vlad "The Impaler" would use this tactic to scare the shit out of the soldiers from the Ottoman empire.
He would have a field full of impaled bodies, and when the soldiers came they were frightened as hell at the sight.

Due to his thirst for blood, it is believed that the legend of Dracula was based off of Vlad "The Impaler."
