What do you want NRS to work on next?

Cartoon Network is a subsidiary of Warner, isn't it?

The C-style movesets were supposed to be a joke, so people would say something like, 'waaait a minute...!'

But yeah, seeing that the proposed game would be in NRS' hands, fans c/would be disappointed...
 
Not sure if I said this before but I'd love NRS to make a game about zombies and vampires taking over not only earth but all the realm in Mortal Kombat. It's be a total spin-off and the main characters would be Juliet Starling (Lollipop Chainsaw), Rayne (Bloodrayne), and JADE.
At first, Jade would be with Kitana and Mileena but the two "twins" get defeated by enemies, not known if they survived the attack or not. Vaeternus has been conquered by Kagan (villain of Bloodrayne) and plans to take over the other realms with his fellow vampires before the zombies take over. Swan (villain of Lollipop Chainsaw) is the one who ends up taking over Netherrealm (even having Quan Chi and Shinnok under his control) and plans to take over the other realms. This is the same time Kahn takes over Outworld but doesn't know that the vampires and zombies are competing with him of who gets to conquer all realms first. That's why Rayne, Juliet, and Jade must find a way to stop them. The story is after Lollipop Chainsaw, an altered story of MK9, and an altered story of Bloodrayne 2.

Juliet Starling

The Grid. If the original is still impossible to emulate and stick onto XBLA/PSN, then give it the MK9 treatment and bring it back. I have never played the Grid, but it looks awesome. It'd be nice if it was widely available. Not everyone can track down a hole in the wall Arcade to play it. Arcades barely exist anymore, other than the new age "Arcades" with nothing but consoles to rent/sit and play.

An MK game for the characters from the MK4 to Armageddon run. There are a lot of different characters and story lines to work with. Those characters deserve a revisit, a revamp, a reintroduction and reimplementation into the new/current gameplay mechanical system of MK. If the original Trilogy elitists/conformists don't like it, tough; they can stick with their games. Let the rest of us enjoy the rest of the MK Universe, whose story extends well beyond the first 3 games, and is far more complex.

An MK game devoted to a Konquest, practically the same as the Konquest in Deception and Armageddon. Those Konquests were some of NRS' best work. A lot of things to unlock, a lot of different paths to take, random fights, tons of different stories and a focus on new characters. The game could start as a Konquest, which would need to be completed before opening a bonus Kombat/Arcade mode. But, the Kombat/Arcade would be secondary to the game, and mainly used as an Online and/or Offline Competitive feature. The Konquest would be the bread and butter.

A wrestling game, similar to Capcom's Saturday Night Slammasters. I'm sure NRS could come up with original characters.
 
Mk10 with chars from mk4 onwards is probably a real project. The MK9 ending teases it and while I didn't enjoy the 3d games as much as the first ones, a revamp could be nice.

Also, a Shaolin Monks like game would be welcomed. I LOVED that game, it felt so true to the MK world.
 
Maybe a "Project X Zone" game made specifically for WB but should have 3D graphics that's RPG with blood and some gore.

Characters and Teams:
Sub-Zero and Scorpion (MK)
Kitana and Jade (MK)
Batman and Catwoman (DC)
Superman and Wonder Woman (DC)
Juliet Starling (Lollipop Chainsaw) and The Point Man (F.E.A.R.)
Neo (The Matrix) and Nite Owl (Watchmen)
Aragorn (The Lord of the Rings) and King Leonidas (300)
The Kid (Bastion) and Harry Potter (Harry Potter)

Some of the Villains:
Quan Chi (MK)
Shinnok (MK)
Shao Kahn (MK)
Mileena (MK)
The Joker (DC)
Harley Quinn (DC)
Doomsday (DC)
Darkseid (DC)
Swan and Killabilly (Lollipop Chainsaw)
Hydarnes (300)
Jason Vorhees
Freddy Kreuger

Sure, but an MK10 game is likely to be out in a couple of years on next-gen systems.
I'm all for that, as I'll very likely be getting a PS4, but I'm also hoping for another action / adventure game on PS3 and 360, for the current-gen systems to go out with a bang. ;)

I'd want one last MK for the PS3 at least and hopefully they'll do it.
 
mkmmorpg. you would be able to traverse the realms and join the many different factions of the mk multi-verse. learn techniques from bo rai cho, become a lin-kuei, shirai ryu, white lotus follower, spec. forces etc. do missions for any of the heavy hitters of the mk realms. like konquest but a lot deeper.

recipe: take 4 parts konquest (mk:d)

2 parts mksm

1 part mkm:sz

stir well, and allow to rise. once all ingredients have had time to congeal put that puppy in the oven bake at 450 for 1 year. and BOOM BADDA BOOM BANG BANG!!!

YOU GOTS YAWSELF ONE BICHUN AZZ GAME RITE DEAH.
 
Before MK10 for the next generation, I'd want an MK Action Adventure game for PS3 even if it's not that long. Any of you guys' suggestions about an MK in today's generation would be brilliant for NRS to do before moving on to the next generation.

I'm telling you, an MK: Fire and Ice game would be the PERFECT transition between the current-gen consoles and MK10 on the next-gen consoles. ;)
 
In all honestly, I would like MK10. The craziness that was MK9 needs a follow-up. Of course, I would also like a Fire v. Ice, too, at some point, but MK10 first please.

Yes. This is agreeable!!!!!!!!!!!! Just have any of my favorites be playable.

I'd also want NRS to reboot War Gods and have Kratos and other God of War characters in that game as guest characters.

Araknyd, you mentioned that developers didn't have devkits for the next-gen consoles? Those were sent out in late 2011, so for all we know, WB could be a year and a half into MK10 or their next-gen game's development. Even if a studio focuses on one game, they always have a small group that does prelim work on another; storyboarding, concepts, writing, etc. That way, when NR would be done with Injustice, they can jump right in. Almost every studio does that. Even before Halo 4 was released, 343 had a small group doing the early work of Halo 5.

Also, the fact that the number of people who will have a next-gen console will not be as much in 2014 than 2015 is about the last thing developers worry about when it comes to publishing. Call of Duty: Ghosts is a great example (as much as I despise those games). Holiday 2013 sales estimates for the PS4 and Xbox One aren't astronomical, but they're pushing the game out in hopes that it will attract potential customers to the consoles and to their game. The games themselves are a marketing tool for the first year or so, and with Mortal Kombat's popularity on the rise again, Holiday 2014 would be an opportune time for them to consider a release. It would also give them an extra few months to allow Sony and Microsoft to work out the kinks.

There are a LOT of variables when it comes to game development. I highly doubt NeathRealm are sitting in their studio saying "yeah, not too many people will have the console in 2014, let's do 2015." That procrastinate mentality costs money, and at the end of the day, they're a business.
 
Maybe a little PSN and Xbox Live mini game that is an MK adventure game. Something that isn't too long and can be completely animated like Bloodrayne: Betrayal (though that game is a little to difficult). The MK mini game should be just right though when it comes to difficulty.

NRS doesn't have the dev kit yet because Ed Boon even mentioned on twitter that he doesn't know what the PS4 looks like yet.
If they had a dev kit, they'd know what it looks like by now.

Call of Duty vs any other game is a terrible example.
You could make a game called COD: Shit Monsters vs Dinosaurs and the masses would flock to it because it has the COD name on it.
Even though MK is huge, it's NOT COD huge.
Sorry, but that example is bad.
Also, considering that lots of people aren't too happy with the whole DRM thing that PS4 and XboxONE are planning and implementing, lots of people (at least according to twitter and recent polls) have been saying that they would rather hold on to their current consoles, rather than support the DRM stuff on net-gen consoles.

Sure, agreed there are a lot of variables.
NRS also has to consider the fact that not everyone will pay $400 to $600 for a console, when it first comes out either.
Making a game for a console that lots of people may not have in the first year is dumb (unless it's a launch title), because not everyone will have the console.
NRS would make more money the next year because more people would have the console the next year, which means that more people would buy the game.
Also, considering that you couldn't even get the current gen consoles for months after their initial release in 2006, and the Wii was even harder to find the first 6 months or so, it may take a while before people get their hands on it.

Mortal Kombat, even though it's my 2nd favorite game series, is NOT a console launch title.
Again, MK is huge, but Sony and Xbox One aren't going to use MK10 as a launch title (If that's what you're implying), especially considering that it's a sequel to a reboot.
If MK9 was developed for those systems, it would have been a PERFECT next-gen system launch title, considering that the era of MK that people are MOST familiar with is MK1 thru UMK3.

Aren't you always ranting and raving about how much of a troll Boon is and how he shouldn't be trusted, especially on Twitter?
