The context he was using it in works. Hes speaking about the nightmares in general, not literally his.He goes to other's dreams.... Have you even seen the movie? lol
You should learn more about him before shunning him.
Well aren't you a bucket of sunshine.Doesn't matter to me. I won't download the compatability pack, so enjoy wasting your money when I'm playing with ya' =D
Oh. So after YEARS of the exact same types of moves, they throw in something unique and stylish, but that's boring?I dont have a problem with the character or anything, it's just his moveset looks boring and didn't excite me one bit.
That's all we need. Just the fact that he's a bad ass.I don't really see what makes Krueger's movesets that unique. Ground claws were taken right from Quan-Chi's Rune (though they'll probably be like... useful or something), or just a low version of Kenshi's Telekinetic Slash. He has a standard fireball, and a low fireball, that looks like it has the same functionality as Kung Lao's low hat. A move that creates untechable time for a free combo... exactly like half the cast. And a teleport taken pretty much directly from Smoke. Yeah, NRS is really stressing the "unique" thing on this guy.
Only thing interesting about him is the fact that he's Freddy Krueger.
Just on the subject of the Freddy movies, I had never seen them either. Just started going through them all, and Nightmare on Elm Street 1 and 2 are pretty awesome. Freddy vs Jason is a very lame example of Freddy... that was the cheeseball horror era.The context he was using it in works. Hes speaking about the nightmares in general, not literally his.
Well aren't you a bucket of sunshine.

I dont know if I am going to be getting Freddy. I haven't seen any of his Elm St. movies nor the remake, but I have seen Freddy vs Jason. I'm not a fan. I've seen the video once or twice. The ground claws looks decent, so does his chain. I dont know, I might give him a try. I'll see depending on the community once he comes out.
Tom would not say such a thing.doubting it's future, and just last night Tom Brady practically said this game is unbalanced and BS.
Practically and actually coming out and saying it are two different things you know the former generally means that someone is taking something one said out of context and the latter implies the person in question actually said it, which last I heard Tom didn't say verbatim that the game was unbalanced and BS.just last night Tom Brady practically said this game is unbalanced and BS. The super character talk and his reasons for dropping Sub Zero etc.oh:
I also like to use individual examples to prove that something makes sense overall. So your friend is going to play MK now because of freddy. If 500,000 people decide not to play this game and stop considering it because of this, is it still a good choice because your friend is one example of someone who's going to play it?I just got off the phone with a buddy of mine asking me which xbox he should buy, so he can get back into mortal kombat. FREDDY MADE HIM DO THIS. I mean, he used to play MK back in the day but has given up on consoles for many years now. But seriously... he is buying a console and mortal kombat BECAUSE of the Freddy announcement. Don't get me wrong, he HAS been loving the new MK from what he has seen from me playing it but it was never enough for him to go buy a console because of it. Freddy changed that for him.
Seems like NRS made the right move. They are BANKING on casual players.
Septic is right about this one...the only people who are pissed off are hardcore MK fans...All the casual players that I have talked to think this is the coolest thing since sliced bread...and there is alot more of them than us.I also like to use individual examples to prove that something makes sense overall. So your friend is going to play MK now because of freddy. If 500,000 people decide not to play this game and stop considering it because of this, is it still a good choice because your friend is one example of someone who's going to play it?
You can't use individual situations to prove points about overall impacts, and conclude from ONE example that NRS made the right choice. That's just foolish, and well, a flat out incorrect conclusion.
Ah you must be one of the angry ones. That's cool man... I just told the story cause I thought it would be relevant to the thread. I never said anywhere in my post about my story PROVING anything so I don't know why you said that. I said NRS is banking on the casual players, THAT is fact. Who do you think guest characters are targeted to? I'm not the first person to tell a story about a casual player getting excited for the game. Won't be the last either... ChAsESaVaGe, prime example, thank you! Sultani If you want to talk about paper thin arguments and lack of real proof where the fuck are you getting your numbers from LOL? If 500,000 people stop playing this game of course that would suck. BUT WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT. I'm trying to figure out why your post was so defensive, Salty-ni.I also like to use individual examples to prove that something makes sense overall. So your friend is going to play MK now because of freddy. If 500,000 people decide not to play this game and stop considering it because of this, is it still a good choice because your friend is one example of someone who's going to play it?

Nah Freddy supporters are weird.So RELAX BRAH. (mk fans are weird sometimes...)
I don't why people keep reading into my posts so much. I didn't say anything about the casual players, or new comers via Freddy, having ANYTHING to do with supporting the game longer than a month, they have NOTHING TO DO WITH EVO. You guys are just arguing for the sake of arguing. I SUPPORT THIS GAME. I am AWARE most of the newcomers will not last in the FGC. ALL I SAID was NRS is going to make a lot of money from this whole thing. Why do you guys keep trying to call me out on topics I didn't even touch?? Some of you need to be politicians.Nah Freddy supporters are weird.
Guys like your friend who are buying MK9 "just for Freddy" are not even real MK fans. And by that I mean they'll probably drop this game in one or two months.
They're not even part of the MK community and couldn't care less if MK9 has a spot at next year's EVO. So more casuals buying the game because of a guest character is not going to change anything in MK9's chances of survival.
at least now you knowNote to self: Never quote septicflesh because he takes everything way too personal.![]()
