Okay here's some more things ive noticed, we got no confirmation on back to block or block button because no one decided to block that whole demo pretty much. One of my friends said that ed boon was asked if you can block the interactables and he said YES so maybe they wont be as broken as IGAU and perhaps they just do enhanced chip. Also, I LOVE the atmosphere, super gritty and dark, just the way think MK should be
Looks like there is a Twitter account from someone @ NRS claiming you can hold block to block the interactable. My guess is they will do decent chip but not be as dominating as they are in Injustice. They probably learned their lesson.

Fujin and Ermac for MK 11
Love love love love love it.

Hard to say much about the gameplay without seeing a full match or two, but some of Scorp and Sub's new moves look pretty dope. The interactables are gonna be controversial, but I for one don't mind seeing them. Could've done with or without them, but they don't seem too out of place in MK IMO.

New characters are alright. Not really feeling the big guy/little girl, they don't quite fit in to me. Blue Aztec fella seems okay from the short glimpse we saw. Definitely liking bug lady though; I already have a thing for insect and/or spider-themed characters and she seems pretty neat. I know we only know 5 characters, but I can pretty easily see myself maining her. And really, I'm pretty happy to see NRS trying out a bunch of new characters whether I like them or not; I was worried they'd play it safe with only a few newcomers but it looks like they're really going in on it.


Fatalities.....I don't want to get hype for something i'll barely bother doing, but man, after seeing them, how can I not be excited? Them big ol' gaping holes, the chewed up face with the hanging jawbone....I thought most of MK9's fatality effects actually looked kind of bad after seeing them a few times, but Netherrealm looks like they're coming correct this time.

FUCK I WANT TO PLAY THIS GAME
Eh i loved mk 9s fatalities man, but no doubt this game looks even more brutal

I am sure the interactables will be tame and fine. As long as there isn't any 70% MMH combo BS lol

Also, if they suck, lets just turn them off this time? We always had that option... probably will again

People keep saying there is NO block button? Has that been confirmed?

Also it looks like we saw 2 versions of Scorpion. One with Swords and one without? Is that the version select Boon was referring to? Or...heaven forbid...a stance switch?
You're right! At first scorpion doesn't have swords, then somehow he does. Interesting...

It has finally happened. Shown live via E3's stream at the Sony conference, we are treated to our first glimpse at gameplay for the new Mortal Kombat X title on the Playstation 4 (also to be released for PS3, Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PC). Although Scorpion and Sub-Zero are obviously recognizable, it appears that two new characters are being introduced to the roster as well, although it is not clear who they are at this time. X-ray attacks return with some excellent next-gen touches and you may recognize some special moves while new ones appear to be getting added as well. This is NOT a video you wanna overlook, so give it a watch if you couldn't follow E3 today!

The Run button is back! I think you guys are forgetting that! Besides, don't judge till you have the mechanics explained properly. Interactables are not a bad idea in my opinion since they will be used tactically as well and not only for damage. In addition, you can't expect high level game play in a trailer, it's a minor showcase. :) (Scorpion has a projectile now too, not just his spear)

Im glad gameplay looked different than I expected and I'm still excited for mkx, however with these new characters, I did lose a little hope in Fujin making the cut. There is still hope though

So what I get so far from the community is they hate innovation and don't like new characters, also they just want better looking MK9!

I don't care what anyone says this game looks fucking sick as hell. The new characters looked creative, the atmosphere is way more darker than MK9 and my god the finishers this time. WHen Sub snapped that Spine I fucking quenched and then seeing Scorpy exposing that heart just looked freakish and outright demented. You know I'm excited when I start dropping F-bombs on this site.

Bring on MOrtal Fucking Kombat motherfucking 10
