What's new

MKX Interview w/ Ed Boon - Select Screen has "hints of truth", EVO players confirmed to help balance

EndofGameBoss

That's about right.
Man...the speed of this game looks awesome. So far I've seen a anti air, a d4, and a jip lol. Whiff punishing is gonna be the big thing in this game. The speed for back dashing looks crazy. I also feel like the acrobat stuff can be anti aired.

The whole fatality thing with Johnny/Sonya/Cassie is kinda weird.

I think you guys should not allow them to Fatality or X-ray each other.
But have a special X-ray animation that is less horrible.

And only let them friendship each other.

I don't really want to see Cage rip his daughters head off.
not sure if this has been mentioned but sindel and kitana can kill eachother. maybe cage or sonya comes back as a zombie. im down for that.

are you bitches for real about the family fatalities? you are the kind of people who can not handle that it is a video game and are most likely to kill someone because of it. its not real. its a game. you really dont have a bullshit filter for this yet? i just really cant believe people would take issue over this its a game. thats the end of the story. theres no more meaning to it because it is not real.

we all know it isnt real. it's just something to discuss while we wait for the games release. then we can look back on all this and laugh

About those "hints of truth", maybe the char placeholders like Terminator , Rorscharch, etc are "hinting" something; Terminator could be hinting to Sektor or Cyrax, Skeletor to Shinnok or Quan chi, Forden to Noob Saibot, Harry Potter to a magician or sorcerer new char, Christian Bale to a psychopath new char, and maybe Obama to Jax :DOGE.

I currently want to play Watch Dogs, since that is fun as hell (Spider Tank was awesome.) I already got GTA V on the PS3 so I wont probably buy that again. Outlast is pretty good and so is The Evil Within and Murder Soul Suspect, BF4 etc. Speaking of MB Idk why ppl watch Netflix on their consules since they already have a TVa nd get netflix on there lol but to each their own. I just want to know if anyone has had problems with their PS4 yet.
I've had zero issues, so far. Then again I never had issues with my PS3 either.

I will note, if you have an LG TV, make sure you switch your TV to the correct HDMI before turning on your PS4, otherwise you may have 25% chance of no sound. It's very temporary, and easily remedied by switching from PS4 HDMI, to TV, then back and it fixes, no problem.

I actually find that completely psychotic, and I am weirded out at the thought that they would have children and parents doing fatalities on each other. Do we really want to see Cassie Cage shoot her mother and father in the head, and put bubble gum on it? I can say this, if they allow that, they will get a shit storm of negative press when some psychotic kid murders their parents.



Sindel is also a resurrected hell witch from a fantasy land called outworld. It's easier to suspend your disbelief when dealing with the Sindel Kitana relationship. We, the audience, are supposed to relate to the Earthrealm warriors. They are human. They come from America. They look like regular people.

The whole Cage and Sonya thing will be fucked up from now on as well. Are they married? Even still, we know they have a kid together, so when Cage beats the shit out of his wife/baby momma, and brutally murders her it's kinda weird.
I think a solution could be inserting somekind of joke or friendship instead of fatalities in those cases, or some sort of humilliations finishing moves instead of fatalities, something like that.

This basically means that if you want the best experience, as it was meant to be, you better get it on a next gen console.
Whoa, slow down there. There are other possibilities.
Granted the 360 & PS3 versions will certainly not have as beautiful graphics, and maybe you won't see the fine textures on someone's heart when you rip it out. But maybe the guys that will be working on them will go to the wall for performance and those versions won't randomly slow down when there are too many things on the screen. Maybe they'll even take some initiative and fix inputs so they don't have glitches. Maybe they'll realize that there's a player-one advantage and think "that can't be right".
All I'm saying is, just because they're not NRS doesn't mean they can't do a good job.
 
Major bullshit is being thrown to at the PS3/XBOX360 players and owners. You still have a complete market of people who are willing to buy this game on the still-"current" generation systems, yet the main team isn't going to be working on it? I'm not all that pleased as I was earlier about this and it kinda(no not kind of, it does) make me upset. No one is really going to take that risk and play this game on a newer generation system that has YET to even have anything good for it. Let alone no one is going to risk their money on something that isn't guaranteed.

I'm not liking this new direction for the team but I understand why. They're trying to kiss the butts of the newer generation owners while at the same time trying to appeal to us older generation owners but, its not going to pay off as it did for MK9. I don't feel that MK10 is going to be the sam because of this decision. Its just me but... I don't feel its right to put all the eggs in that one basket yet, not now and not too fast.
Dude it comes out in 2015. If you cant save 400 dollars by next year, the main team working on MKX should be the least of your worries lol
 
Pulling statistics out of your ass on the market share piece. It sounds like you're angry that you don't have a next gen system and you feel that the game being ported by another company will put you at a disadvantage game quality wise. I for one prefer a company who stays contemporary with technology and doesn't fall behind with it so I commend NRS for this. 2nd I'd like to just add that the port very well could be fine it was obviously always going to be worse than the next gen versions they hardware simply isn't there. But that doesn't mean it will be bad. TitanFall was only developed by Respawn for next Gen hardware while the 360/pS3 version was ported by another company. And yet the 360/PS3 version was still well received when it came out.

I Rather have NRS work on design and balance (They have 72 characters to balance!) without handcuffing themselves with hardware, then have to worry about trying to optimize the game for legacy hardware.
So with that assumption i suppose others who would agree with my statement are also "very angry"? Lovely conclusion...

I think people money grows on trees... Do any of have a family to take care of? I mean when does reality kick in for any of you? If you guys can waste $400 dollars on a video game system, then i highly question you.

lol by that logic then you shouldn't have bought even a 360 then or even be buying ANY games. So you're telling me you can't throw aside 80 bucks a month to save towards 400? B/c you know most smart people i know, they do their best to not live off paycheck to paycheck. Also if you have a family, i'm gonna presume you have a wife that works as well. If 80 bucks is out of your budget then you could both save 40 a month. If the console was in the thousands, then i could sympathize with you but honestly 400 by next year is NOT hard to save. Just sounds like to me you're really butthurt about the main team working on next gen only.

I worked hard through 8 years of schooling, four yeArs residency (still in residency) while working 40 hours a week.

I'll buy 700 more Xbox Ones and Ps4's if I want.

It's not a waste if you enjoy it. Live a little. I see meisers everyday dying in front of me with millions in the bank.

Lifes too short.

It may've sounded like I was hurt but in actuality, I wasn't. Just a fan who isn't going to just sit here and smooch up to everything I see or hear, I have a voice and these forums allow me to say it aloud (even if they aren't supported or if they are). I can easily save the money but the way it seems right now if the main team isn't going to work on the 360/PS3 ports, why get it still? It makes me feel like a consumer and a buyer that the product I'm trying to invest in, isn't going to fulfill its promise.

"Tell me, do you bleed?...You will."
So by saying "what about relatives fatality on each other" he basically confirmed johnny cage or sonya :D

I get your point but its up to you to make the important decisions. You can't just carelessly spend your money away on something, just gotta be rational that's all.

Just because you cant afford a next gen console does not mean that NRS shouldnt make mkx for it. Save your pennies sir(since you americans still have those) or enjoy mkx on 360(which is a luxury btw)

Please read the other reply as I easily stated I can easily afford the system, however, I'm not going to just be an idiot and immediately buy the system just for some MKX. I get it, the game is looking good... so far, but that shouldn't make people go out and get it (unless they REALLY want to get it during the first week). And besides, I prefer getting the game when all unlockables are easily out anyway..
