The Brutality Opinion Thread

[aldazo]

I like that they remind me of the old school fatalities from MK1-2-3, without cinematics and camera angles; my only grip though is that I notice some slow motion in them, and that cut the fast pace they had in the old MKs, hopefully they change that in the final release. Btw, it would be cool if they add those old MK sounds previous to the fatalities, but this time for the brutalities, so we somehow could re-experience that old MK nostalgia. ;_;

quality thread man

 

[Wemfs]

Hum... that was AWESOME?!

Imagine if every enhanced special move + grab was a Brutality.... damn. Love the classic finisher camera angle too.

X-Ray Brutalities anyone?

An x-ray in to a brutality finisher would be epic.

 

[ghostwriteous]

Like I mentioned in the other thread, I expected them to be some what like Weaponlord finishers. If they could have made it more like that, would have been even better. Imagine comboing someones head or grounded body.

This is just hilarious

I love how she puts both hands into it like a volleyball player lol

 

[Kokoko]

Brutalities are great, yeah! Absolutely. Can't wait to perform it.
I expected something like MK3 with X-Ray, but it's really awesome. Thanks NRS.

 

[manohokuto]

This whole new brutality thing they got goin is literally better than anything I imagined, really wanna see jax now more than ever.
also kabal and hopefully one of the cyborgs(dlc if not in base game fingers crossed)

 

[IrishMantis]

Theres over 100 so maybe every char has an x ray version of brutality

Kotal's is gonna be so Satisfying

betting Money on Sub having freezing then smashing you on the ground

 

[Eric The Scruffy]

I think brutalities are awesome and almost exactly what I predicted/wanted.....only issue I have is that depending on what the prerequisites are it seems like they might happen on accident sometimes.....which sounds slightly lame to me.

I mean....what If I don't want to end with a brutality? Maybe I want to end with a fatality?

 

[just_2swift]

so no one noticed the new kotal khan stage in the trailer tho

"PRAY FOR THE KAHN'S MERCY!"

 

[Notez4]

These are the quick fatalitys every one was wanting to begin with. Quick and to the point. Every one was whining about how long mk9 fatalitys were but don't like this? I for one am a fan of both the longer fatalities and the new brutalitys.

 

[RickettsZ22]

You knew this was coming no matter what they actually looked like.

"Oh man they're different than they used to be. I can't believe this isn't MK3U, this game is trash!!!"
"OH man they're exactly the same, why couldn't they try something different"

Point is there is always going to be someone who complains. I think they're great, and I'm glad to have something new. If you want a super large auto-input combo, KI is still there.

 

[John Grizzly]

Sorry but no. Brutalities are fucking epic lol and flashy.



Agreed, Brutalities aren't horrible. They're like a combination of classic MK fatalities, brutalities from MKT and babalities and friendships in regard to "having to do something to in order to do it" I like them.

I'm curious as to what the things are will be, probably will change depending on the brutality and apparently I think we'll be able to choose or something before the match because notice Tyler asked Jenn to put the cam on them instead of the game at one point.

P.S. umm KI copied MK first off if anything with "humilations" and punching people off of roof tops, pits etc because we all know it's not like MK didn't do that first...lol

This is nothing like an Ultra Combo, KI3 they beat you up and punch you into a background portal or something very tame compared to MK X. I have to say Raiden's was fucking beast.

Kotal Kahn's was fucking AMAZING. Dude ended his combo with his huge sword that cut the dude down the middle. Fucking awesome.

Scorpion's was as well. The one where he ended with that double slash that took the guy's arms off.

Brutalities interest me so much more than the Fatalities at this point, I can't even begin to explain it. I think we will be discovering new ones even a year from now.

I fucking love it.

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

I fucking want these kind of brutalities..... man even in Shaolin Monks the brutalities are MUCH better than in MKX !!!

So u want them to go back to 19 femurs , 5 rib cages, 7 elbows, 4 wrists and random limbs?

K cool

 

[DominicanAddy94]

I love them. Can't wait to see Reptile's brutalities.

 

[Amplified$hotz]

I just watched it and they look awesome. Raidens especially. Also Ninjutsu Scorpion fiddy fiddys for a hunna percent?

 

[PizzaMasta]

Now the only thing left to include is Hara-Kiris, with super long inputs to make it challenging for the loser. Now you have to choose between going for the Fatality and risking the Hara-Kiri; or ending it quick with a Brutality.

 

[cyke_out]

Anything that reminds me of weaponlord is a good thing.

 

[Eddy Wang]

Quickalities are awesome,I liked them a lot, i think the only problem here was NRS calling those finishers Brutality, those who felt disappointed surely were expecting something else. When i browsed to the Angola Whatsapp ground lot of people feeling disappointed due the nostalgia and stuff, and some even left before the stream finished, i get it, i know what they were expecting.

But this is fucking Mortal Kombat, i do not second though anything about this game, i will still going to play it like my last day on earth everytime i get my hands on it.


And for the first time Derek and Tyler fist of 2 has shown the true pace of MKX, and they dropped much less combos too, the game looks really fast that capitalize reads and strats will make your brain work twice as fast than MK9 and even much faster than Trilogy

 

[Jimmypotato]

It's a shame that the stream was very laggy, but i'll wait for archives.

Brutalities were amazing from what I saw.

Sorry guys, this is MK X, not MK 3. The 90's finished 15 years ago.

stream didnt lag once for me, it looked awesome

 

[Matix218]

My expectations were high and NRS delivered. I love MK so much.

 

[xX_Atrocitus_Xx]

Knowing boon the hint may not be for Johnny maybe Sonya? OORRRR something new?

 

[WakeUp DP]

It would be sick to combo into xray and cancel with an ultimate I mean brutality!

 

[IrishMantis]

Brutality keeps the momentum going

Fatality = Torture
Brutalities = Straight Execution

tell me these gifs dont make you feel the pure aggression

 

[JDM]

Brutalities are gonna be sick because depending on how strict the requirements will be, the audience might not even know if they are able to perform one. I think they are gonna be way more hype than babies simply because they are disrespect and surprising wrapped into one move. Everyone knew when a baby could occur and not saying they weren't hype, but they had no surprise element to them like brutalities do.
