How about this.

Scorpion turned out to be the true hero/champion at the end of MKD, right? Redeemed and all that good stuff?

What if he figures it all out.
The truth about Quan. The location of Noob. The means to revive the dead (specifically Sub).
And instead of going all vengeance happy, he gets in touch with his inner brilliant, manipulative samurai, mindfucks the mindfuckers.
Under the false guise of allegience, he unites the Netherrealm and Chaosrealm and gives them the impression he also looks to serve their destructive battleplan, only to eventually discover their weaknesses and the means to defeat them, saves the Lin Kuei and redeems his dark past deeds by delivering to Raiden and friends the means to revive the soon to be new Grand Master (which will be why only he gets brought back from the dead by these particular methods, they'll need him for something big, idk what yet, perhaps some ancient Lin Kuei secret in that temple from MKA they ended up using as their base that they need him to unlock), and unbeknownst to Shinnok, Quan and Havik, leads the forces of evil to their doom and saves the fucking world.
Everybody wins.
Sub comes back as the big badass frozen good guy and defeats the Tekunin.
Evil Sub/Noob comes back extra evil and pays the price for screwing over Hanzo.
The evil realms have a common ground person through whom they unite and by whom are ultimately destroyed. Story substance. Plot twist. $$$.
And Scorpion, after a lifetime/deathtime of fury, vengeance and misery, redeems himself, honors his fallen clan and family, saves everyone, makes peace with a former enemy/enemy clan as well as the rest of the forces of good, and looks like fucking gold in the eyes of the Elder Gods, Earthrealm, Edenia, and every other person whose skin he just saved.

Well, that was one of my absolute favorite things about the original story: the neverending trials of Hanzo Hasashi.
He started out with a family and a tribe and was a pretty good dude in spite of being an assassin, gets turned into this hellacious demon as a result of Bi-Han and Quan, and every game after it was like he was progressing further from evil and closer to turning his desire for vengeance into a means to redeem himself and make those who dicked him over pay for their crimes, to eventually accepting his role as a force of good and setting out to do the Elder Gods' work.

But Bi Han is Noob Saibot. They aren't going to be seperated because they are the same person. Why do people keep thinking that Noob Saibot is like Venom or something?

The Dragon Medallion really isn't even in play anymore either. Sektor has it now. Also, if Bi Han was so badass as everyone likes to suggest then why does everyone want him to repeat Kuai Liang's story? TAking the dragon medallion, taking over the Lin Kuei are both huge parts of Kuai Liang's story. Nothing is boss about Bi Han besides the fact that he's the original and people can't let go of it. He was the main Sub-Zero in 1 game. Let me repeat that again 1, one, uno, that's it. Kuai Liang has been the main Sub-Zero for every game after that. Can people just let it go? Bi Han is Noob Saibot now.
Because there's a difference in what bi han would do if he had the same opportunities as his brother

Not in play anymore?Yes,sektor has it,how do you think kuai liang got it in the first place?from battling sektor and defeating him,hell,even with the medallion he couldn't even beat cyrax and had to run for his life.

Bi han is an evil subzero,a darker and merciless one,that's always something that adds to the cool of a character,bi han was always the badass subzero,if he takes the dragon medalion and decides to avenge his brother by destroying the lin kuei/allying with scorpion then his storyline will be vastly different and will actually be good,seriously,who cares about noob finding smoke in some backwoods dungeon of shao khans?no more cyber smoke,therefore he should team up with either scorp or csz after he restores him.

Considering he has defeated Shinnok before,bi han is the perfect person for the new storyline to continue,along with ermac and kenshi.

he's neutral,never has been good,whatever he's done he did for personal gain,wether it was for revenge,family back,clan back,revenge vs the elder gods,lust for power to bring family back,etc.

i guarantee you,any good he does in mk10 will be to lose the title "quan chis bitch"

i always liked scorpion best,after mk9,scorpion comes second!

doesnt mean i wont jizz all over the screen when i pick up mk10,put tag team practice and select both of em.

and considering subby wubby killed scorp over a fight for the map,there are no hard feelings,subby wubby didn't kill scorpy worpy's family

this thread is a great way to get hyped about the new movie, especially with Scorpion being the lead protagonist.

also, i cant help but wish they showed Motaro a little more love in this game, he could have been BEAST. although, judging by how they turned Kintaro into a kitty-cat just because he had tiger stripes on his back in MK2, who's to say Motaro wouldn't have been some sort of Mermaid-Horse lol

You have got to be joking right?

You can say anything about Kuai Liang all that you want, say Bi Han is more badass that's coooool. However, regardless by what means he may have used Kuai Liang never died in the old timeline. Not once. Bi-Han did, and then Quan Chi turned his evil ass into Noob Saibot by the evil in his OWN soul. Noob Saibot is Bi Han. He was an evil bastard an thus ended up Noob Saibot.

Also I'm tired of people saying Bi Han and Scorpion could team up.lol. That would not happen, and if it did then NRS is clearly out of it. Bi Han killed Hanzo resulting in him ending up as Scorpion, Scorpion killed Bi Han resulting in him ending up Noob Saibot. Those two absolutely hate each other. They would never ever team up. It wouldn't make any sense. Think of your worst enemy, then think of teaming up with him. That's how much sense that makes.

Also, the Dragon Medallion was still in play in the old timeline because Sub-Zero never, ya know, died. So, he got to sit and think about the crap that Sektor had put him through. Sektor hasn't put Bi Han through anything. In fact if Bi Han would have been alive he probably would have went through automation because he was LOYAL to the Lin Kuei. Sub-Zero (Kuai Liang) never really was. He started to disagree with their ways, and once he saw they were automating members he decided he wouldn't take it any longer and left. The point is that Sub-Zero is dead, and I'm pretty sure he has more problems now than worrying about taking the Dragon Medallion anyway. If Bi-Han somehow ends up Sub-Zero he will not care about the Dragon Medallion anyway though because he has no beef whatsoever with Sektor and the Lin Kuei like Kuai Liang did.

I'm sure people will always semi like Bi Han over Kuai Liang, and why I will never know. Everything that he accomplished was in Mythologies a game that everyone wants to hold as Canon and play it up as one of the best games even though many people consider it on the same shit level as Special Forces. Just remember fans told Boon on twitter that Mythologies should be remade and Boon responded with "No, it shouldn't."

Sorry, I just get really pissed when people want Bi Han to become Sub-Zero again because to me it makes so little sense. Especially when you consider they gave Kuai Liang two chapters in storymode as Sub-Zero and still turned Bi-Han into Noob Saibot. I've said it before, if they wanted to leave Bi Han as Sub-Zero then MK9 was the perfect opportunity. It would have kept the Scorpion/Sub-Zero rivalry alive, and they still could have automated Kuai Liang and just called him Tundra. Guess what? They didn't do that though. They made a point of still killing Bi Han and turning him into Noob Saibot, and they left Kuai Liang to still become Sub-Zero. MK9 was the perfect opportunity to let Bi Han become Sub-Zero but it didn't happen. People please stop throwing Scorpion's MKD ending mixed with Venom from Spiderman's storyline and giving it to Noob Saibot. Please. The soulnado is going to transport Noob to chaosrealm where he will meet Havik. That's it.

just bring back every character, they dont have to be alive in story mode but in fighting mode they should be there to play as.. Having a character not in a game due to storyline is the stupidest thing in MK
disagree. mk has always been the most story-driven FG and a lot of today's beloved characters were born because of the storylines. not saying i wouldn't want some characters back, but that's beside the point of the argument you're making.

EDIT: i just reread your post and maybe i misinterpreted. lemme know what you think.

you can have a story mode and kill off whoever, but when it comes to the fighting game part of the game leave every character in. i dont get why that was a disagreeable post???

like are you really going to freak out in anger if in story mode some one got killed in teh last game but they appear in the fighting mode to be played with in the next game..

I'm going to be honest I didn't read the 9 pages of conversation. BUT..Can Sektor capture smoke and make him robo? :)
Doubtful. I'd imagine with Smoke being deceased/in the possession of the Netherrealm, they'll give him a whole new agenda if he's going to be back, and Sektor's gonna have all the time in the world to cyborg up as many ninjas as he pleases with all of his enemies minus Cyrax disposed of.

easy there. if we were talking umk9, i would agree, because the story would have no priority whatsoever. for mk10, i bet you they WILL bring in new characters, which i think is fine. so some old characters will have to go. hell, they might leave out regular sub-zero who has always been one of my favorite characters, but at the end of the day i'll play it anyways like i always have.

here's another idea that has just hit me: what if in mk10 they gave us a 30 man roster consisting of
- 20 characters from mk9 including some who get revived during story mode (eg. jax... AND ZOMBIE LIU KANG!)
- 5-8 characters from other mk games (eg. tanya)
- 2-5 new characters (eg. tremor)

and THEN reintroduce the remaining characters they killed off in mk9 as DLC. yeah, i'd be less of a surprise, but i know i'd sure as hell rather buy kitana than fuckin' freddy krueger.
 
Since all the dead warriors' souls belong to Quan Chi, I guess they could all make a return and serve the Netherrealm in the sequel. I don't know how I would feel about MK10 taking out all those characters. Seriously, that one scene with Sindel single-handedly committing Earthrealm genocide and then getting killed off herself was so dumb.

Subby Z among others officially changed my OP's mind.
Bi-Han's out, Kuai Liang's back in.
I can't see the perpetual douchebag Sub magically growing a conscience, Noob or not.
And you simply can't have MK without a Sub-Zero.

Oh, my days !
Dead: Jade, Jax, Kabal, Kitana, Kung Lao, Motaro, Nightwolf, Noob Saibot (Bi Han), Shang Tsung, Sindel, Smoke, Stryker.
Returning/Revived/Fixed:Cyber Sub-Zero (alternate costume in ladder: Human Sub-Zero), Robo-Smoke (Sektor could collect his body at the temple and turn him into his cyborg form - Alternate costume: Human Smoke).
Big boss: Onaga & Shinnok (story/character depending: the final boss could be different in ladder kombat).
Sub-Bosses: Daegon, Blaze & Moloch.

Story (more or less):
After Shao Kahn's defeat, Outworld is led by Onaga (the intro can be placed around his emergence) followed by the Tarkatans & the Shokan (Goro, Kintaro and Sheeva make a comeback). Reptile, Mileena, Rain, Sektor and the Lin Kuei still enforce Outworld. Kano, Kobra, Kira & Jarek ally with Outworld as well.

As a result, Mavado and Hsu Hao (though I could live without Hsu Hao’s homosexual costume) is on NetherRealm's side. Outworld's last stand comes to a halt as Shinnok and his minions take over Outworld. We could possibly see how ruthless & powerful Shinnok really is by killing off a bunch of outworld characters during Part1 (during which the player can control some of the popular, "bad" NetherRealm guys such as Quan Chi, Reiko, Daegon and Mavado).

Shinnok followed by Daegon, Reiko, Quan Chi, Drahmin, Moloch, Tanya, Mavado, Hsu Hao, Havik, Darrius, Dairou, Ashrah and Nitara (Sareena possibly?) plus any possible Outworld survivors and now comrades (Reptile?), leads the attack against Earthrealm. I would have a good 30-40% of Outworlds cast serve Shinnok after Outworld’s defeat.

Kobra, Kira, Jarek, some of the Shokan (Goro is the favorite to stay alive) and Mileena are expendable in my opinion, meaning they could be dead after Shinnok’s attack. Then the next part could take place and evolve around EarthRealm’s defenses lead by the new protector of Earthrealm, Liu Kang while Fujin is the Elder Gods’ messenger to observe and consult the rookie Kang. Raiden is turned into a mortal with amazing powers (that’s my story twist concerning the good guys). Kang is not dead but seriously injured in the finale of MK9's story mode and later his request for a one match mortal kombat is granted by the elder gods etc...

Kang is deformed (Kabal-like) and has a back and forth relationship with Raiden while Fujin is there to stabilize things when they get out of hand. We could see an enigmatic Kang being powerful (as his MK9 ending suggested) but lacking the discipline and wisdom that Raiden had as Earthrealm’s protector. Maybe even killing one of the good guys in a show of anger and aggression near MK10's story mode, THEN having him realize that he is just not ready for such a heavy burden and having Fujin and Raiden taking over near the end.

Cage, Sonya, Cyber Sub-Zero, Frost, Cyrax, Kai, Fujin, Raiden, Ermac (King Jerrod-he;s a good guy now, free of Kahn's spell), Bo Rai Cho, Hotaru, Kenshi, Taven, Shujinko and Li Mei enforce Earth’s “good guys”. Tanya could work as “double agent”/traitor during story mode on behalf of NetherRealm’s side meaning, she could be the reason for some of the good guys’ cast dying in a treacherous plot.

Ideas people?... :)

I'll tell you how I want story mode to play out.

I've already posted my first two chapters which would be Sareena and Sub-Zero. Look them up a couple pages back. Basically Sareena takes Sub-Zero to Quan's purification chamber which revives him into a human. After that she leads Sub-Zero to a portal in which he leaves the netherrealm to go warn Raiden, Sonya, and Johnny Cage of Shinnok and Quan chi attacking the heavens and trying to conquer the realms.

The skies then turn black and the heavens are being attacked by Shinnok and his forces. He sends Reiko to take over Outworld while Quan Chi is sent to take over Earthrealm.

That leads to chapter 3 with Bo Rai Cho and Li Mei being the next chapters after Sareena and Sub-Zero.

The whole first half of Story mode leads to Outworld being taken by Shinnok's forces. Meaning outworld loses the battle. After that battle is over any remaining survivors from Outworld then escape to Earthrealm in order to help Raiden and his remaining forces fight off Shinnok and Quan Chi.

That leads to a team of Sonya, Johnny Cage, Sub-Zero, Kenshi, Li Mei, Bo Rai Cho, Cyrax (now turned good), Ermac (also turned good), Fujin, Kai, Jade (revived by woman in ending), Skarlet, and possibly Mileena led by Raiden fighting for the side of good.

They would go up against all of Earth's former heroe's including Liu Kang. Kang would act like the Sindel of MKX. Just when Raiden thinks he's about to come out the winner for Earth Shinnok and Quan unleash their best Netherrealm fighter in Liu Kang. Kang starts to take down heroes one by one, not killing them though. Although I'm thinking one or two heroes need to die here (I'm thinking Johnny and possibly Mileena[Showing how much she's changed]). In the end though the battle comes down to a few left with it being Quan Chi vs Sonya, Shinnok vs. Kenshi, Liu Kang vs. Raiden, and Scorpion vs. Sub-Zero. During the fight Sub-Zero tells Scorpion that he has been lied too and deceived. This leads Scorpion to question himself.

Cut to Sonya getting knocked down by Quan Chi. As he has her on the ground he taunts her because he has won. You then see a spear run right through Qua Chi's chest. Followed by Sub-Zero freezing him and shattering him to pieces. Sub-Zero then helps Sonya to her feet.

In the end though Raiden ends up sacrificing himself to defeat Liu Kang because he isn't powerful enough to beat him.

That leads to MK11 where Raiden becomes Dark Raiden.

So what do you guys think about it?

Man, I loved it. I want to see that kind of twists although I'd prefer if the good guys remained good guys (Kang) but from a different point of view. I'd love to see Fujin have a main role in the story and Scorpion already knowing that Quan Chi was responsible for etc etc (the known stuff)... I don't want to see SubZero (Kuai Liang) in any form (human/robot) teaming up with Scorpion but I wouldn't mind seeing that (kind of like their MK4 ending) happening.
I really liked those ideas. Let's just jope that NRStudios guys think a little bit like a fan would think and NOT turn every dead fighter to a zombie making a foolish and immature story mode. I also wouldn't mind MK10's story mode being a little more "aggressive" and "shocking" in terms of heroes' deaths, language and turning of events... Obviously Kai, Sareena, Frost, Li Mei, Hotaru & Shujinko are more expendable than Raiden, Fujin, Kang, (Cyber)SubZero, Cage, Sonya and Taven.
I didn't like Kung Lao's and Kitana's death in MK9 (both being heavy names in the MK universe) as well as the Sindel solo, taking on every single Earth fighter like it didn't matter (they could have died differently as the story evolved rather than in just one scene) so there you have it.
Expendables from the side of the bad guys (Outworld/NetherRealm/ChaosRealm etc) are somehow easier to find: Jarek, Kira, Kobra, Hsu Hao, Rain, Drahmin, Moloch, Tanya, Darrius and Dairou just aren't the same as other -big named- bad guys.
This could work in terms of stroy mode realism and balancing the good guys' losses to the bad guys' losses. Anyway... Take care

@ Subby Z !
Thanks man.

I think the only thing me and you might disagree on is Cyber Subz. I can see your a fan, and I'm not. That's why the first part of my story revolves around Sareena reviving him to his normal human state.

Also, I semi-disagree with you on the zombie thing. While I don't want to go around one by one ressurecting the fighters, I do want to fight them in Storymode, and I also want them to be unplayable. The only characters who come back are Sub-Zero, Jade, and Smoke in my scenario and at the end Ermac would do what he did in deception and mass ressurect the rest of them.

Smoke becomes a full on demon, and begins to embrace it. He escapes Quan Chi, but after the netherrealm starts to effect him he goes back to fight for Quan.

Here's a timeline of events for what I think should happen

-Sareena mistakes Kuai Liang for Bi han and helps him escape from Quan Chi.
-She then takes Sub-Zero to Quan's purification chamber to be revived. He walks out as human sub-zero.
-She then takes Sub-Zero to a portal to Earthrealm, and has to stay behind.
-Sub-Zero goes on to warn Raiden and Sonya of Quan Chi and Shinnok's plans.
-The skies go black and they realize it is too late.
-We then cut to outworld where Bo Rai Cho and Li Mei are seeing the same black skies.
-Bo and Li Mei realize that they must find other help and thus set out on a mission to find other fighters to help them in Outworld.
- They come across Ermac first, who they then help to silence the voices he has in his head. Jerrod then reveals himself as the main soul residing in Ermac, and the three then go on to Shao Kahn's throne room to find any remaining survivors. On the way to Kahn's throne room Skarlet reveals herself to them. She attempts to keep them from entering Kahn's throne room, but is overwhelmed by the others. They inform her that Kahn is dead, and that he will not return. She sobs, and then they convince her that she can still join a worthwhile cause. Saving the world in which he used to rule. Skarlet then joins the team.
-The group is then confronted by a band of vampires running rampant in Outworld. Nitara attempts to take Skarlet believing her to be an everlasting blood source. The others help stop Nitara, and Skarlet is finally convinced that this team is willing to help her.
-The final person they meet is Mileena. They find her in Kahn's throne room sitting in a corner. She attacks the group. Stabbing Li Mei and wounding her.
-Ermace fights Mileena and calms her down. They inform her that she is the new Queen of Outworld, and she must guide them in battle. This front is all to get Mileena to join the team.
-Mileena agrees that she can help them, and that the new Queen of Outworld must keep her citizens safe.

-Bo Rai Cho then overlooks the land. He and Ermac come to the conclusion that they will surely die if they enter back out into outworld. None of them will survive.
- Then out of the shadows walks Jade. She reveals that she knows a way to Earthrealm, but the group must follow her lead. The group agrees.
-Jade reveals that Edenia has been promised to Tanya and Rain. Ermac dreads that thought as does Jade.

That's the half way point I have worked up to for my story of MKX.
