Major spoiler characters should be unlockables, and there should be absolutely no info about them on official sites or Boon's twitter or anything else until around 3 months after release, so you don't spoil yourself the whole story mode just because you decided to go to official web site to check something.
Movesets also should be able on official site in printable form.
 
I like your style my friend. Regarding the moves lists however, I believe they should still be in the game, just the -Alities being removed.

And for the love of God, PLEASE no Fatality tutorial!

I think the Fatality Tutorial should remain in. It helps a LOT, especially if you're using an Xbox controller, you've been away from the game for a while, or if you've gotten rusty. It is a huge help, believe it or not.
 
^Nah, if you don't know how to do a Fatality, experiment the old fashioned way, in an actual match.

Having the tutorial in takes away the "wow" factor that was in previous games in regards to Fatalities.
 
I would like at least half the roster unlockable, i want to experience everything that the game has to offer and unlocking things is so satisfying. kind of like upgrading in ratchet and clank, so worth it. i feel like most people that want it all accessible just want to jump straight into the online with their favorite character to get top spot in the leader boards for bragging rights while everyone still sucks. i'm not going to work when this game comes out and if you do end up unlocking folks i will have them all by days end. took me a day for the challenge tower in mk9
 
I love unlocking stuff in games, so Im definitely saying yes to this. Id like around 5 unlockable characters, but Im only expecting like 2 since so many people find it a chore to play through story mode to unlock someone.

I also like unlockables. Especially characters. MK9 was so disappointing in that sense. The krypt had nothing good to offer. The unlockable characters were kinda blah. The secret battle characters were just characters that already exist on the roster. And the big reward for completing the Challenge Tower was atrocious.

Here's hoping MKX has some good unlockables and secrets.
 
I really do like to unlock characters, but I want them to all be unlocked. My save data got reset, and I was forced to play through the story mode to unlock Quan Chi and Cyber Sub-Zero again. I also go to play at a friend's house, and I can't select Quan Chi. It's annoying. I also want my DLC characters to be available 100% of the time.

They'll never do that for tournament purposes. There's no guarantee that all the consoles at Evo or MLG will have all the necessary contents unlocked, downloading the DLC is easy, playing through a game to unlock the characters will be a hassle.
 
I would like for a lot of characters to need to be unlocked, and I would also like for there to be varying difficulty on how to unlock said characters.

People actually play as Cyber Sub Zero and Quan Chi? :p

While I do understand your frustration, I feel that in a game like this there HAS to be something to work for. Otherwise all fighter games are dull as hell. We should have to work to get certain characters... Or costumes. Having everything laid out on the table for you from the start is kinda boring.
 
Injustice had a great alternative.


All characters unlocked from beginning, but lots of alts to be unlocked. Some of them incredibly difficult to get.

Well beyond the typical scrub characters, people do play as Quan Chi and Cyber Sub-Zero ;)

They should lock Scorpion from the start.

Haha I do! Quan Chi was my second main in MK9 and in MKDA I loved his laugh when you b**ch slap people with the skull such a rewarding way to finish your opponent and it seemed like fought like a total prick.

I also found cyber sub to be a lot of fun to play with
 
Definitely want some locked characters. Unlocking characters in Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance was always cool to me; I liked saving gold to be able to play as a new character. It also makes the whole Krypt system a bit more important. MK9 did it really well keeping Cyber Sub-Zero and Quan Chi locked, but I don't think two characters is enough. I think four should do it just right for me.
 
Nobody gives a shit about how old you are Trash.
And nobody likes Lars.



Lock the roster and offer special unlocked roster versions for Majors.
 
I think that it would be awesome if the whole roster except for like 4 characters was locked at the start. But you unlock the rest by playing through a tutorial mode that teaches you how to play the game. That way people won't go online without knowing the basics. Then just save 2-4 characters that you need to play through story mode to get. When you go over a locked character, it would say, "Play Tutorial Mode to unlock!"
