MKX will have more fatalities than any other MK has had, and much more "robust" netcode

Well, a new interview that starts with the same lame question to show off the 3 variations. In this interview Ed Boon was asked about the fatalities and he said there will be an "enhanced version" of classic fatalities, then he was asked if each variation will have a different fatality but he said they don't want to limit the choices and MKX will have more fatalities than any other MK game has had, so we're saying a minimum of 6 ?

Then he was asked about the net code and he said they learned a lot from the old games and it'll be "MUCH BETTER", much more "robust" netcode.

He was also asked about Shaolin Monks and that they want to do another one but they can't stop the flow of MK fighting games cause it's doing great.

And we might get a BRAZILIAN FIGHTER !

Well him saying they can do the returning-ality better than before because of "graphical power" and whatnot pretty much confirms brutalities.

How the fuck are they going to work?

I'm betting they'll be QTEs, but liken to a few special QTEs in God of War where you mash a button to beat your victim down and after a set amount of time, or only when you stop, it'll do a finisher(or not).

It would be pretty brutal(0:53):

That said, hopefully a lot shorter in length because that shit would get annoying fast.

If only for the brutalities they managed to get it to transition to first-person view seamlessly they'd blow people's fucking minds.

That's the very first time someone from NRS has gone out of their way to say the netcode will be good. They usually just give some vague response about them trying their best.

Suuuuper refreshing to hear. Lets hope its everything we have been waiting for. Hope for the best, but expect the worst.
 
More Fatalities than any MK ever? Even MK: Trilogy? 'Cause almost everyone in that had two Fatalities, a Brutality, Animality, Babality and a Friendship. As well as Stage Fatalities on top of that.

I'm not complaining, though. I mean, holy fucking shit, if everyone has, like, six Fatalities or whatever each, I may just DIE from all the bloody joy.

Also, about time they considered a Brazilian fighter. A fighter that uses Capoeria would immediately be infinitely more cooler than Eddy Gordo ever was.

he said more fatalities (animalities etc don't count as a fatality..) so maybe each char is gettin 3 fatalities + a brutality

Evil Kitana ;) i like the prospect of there being 3 variations for every character...which means it will take some time to master one and plenty of lab work! Where as in MK9 you could learn a character within 10 minutes....hell i think i learned JC in around 5 minutes ;)

the 3 variations will force u to try everyone :D It shows how different the character is from a variation to another. this will be very confusing tho :p

I just hope they don't make an achievement/trophy to spend 24 hours on each variation for all the characters. That would be super dumb.

If there's going to be 24 characters, it would take 1728 hours, which is beyond ridiculous.

This only matters to us achievement freaks out there, however. =P

well yeah you have to learn them to fight them too :p I don't think they'll ignore the idea of cyborgs in Mkx but I do believe we'll just get Sektor or Cyrax :p are you going to play it on ps3 or ps4 ?

Yeah, that's why I didn't bother with th Injustice plat. You need a dumb amount of time to hit level 100, even without grinding
