Thanks to @_CHINOCUDEIRO_ for the link...

Larry Hryb @majornelson
I've got an interview with @noobde (for a future podcast) today. Let me know if you have any questions about Mortal Kombat X to ask.


Figured I would throw this up for anyone interested...

He seems to usually post these podcasts on Fridays...No words yet on in this interview will be for tomorrow or a future week yet...

In Zoning We Trust
-Anything related to netcode/online connectivity that can give us some answers. Still yet to discuss it.

-For people who don't preorder Goro, what other method(s) can they use to obtain him? Can they buy him Day 1? Do they have to wait a month? Never? How can someone get Goro without the preorder?

-We are getting DLC characters after the Kombat Pack characters are released. Can we expect extra skins to come after as well?

-With the game a month away, how many more streams like today's or trailers like the Cage family one can we expect?


Not too extreme to ask and I feel like they're questions they should be able to answer without an issue.

We should just flood his twitter with tons of random questions....
How much peanut butter in ounces do you eat during a normal week?
Where is your remote?
What is your favorite knot in a tie?
Have you ever truly pleased a woman?
Who is your biggest disappointment in the FGC?

Could you elaborate on the running mechanic in game. Can you cancel strings with runs? Can you cancel a run instantly?

What faction are you going to pick? If half the community picks one faction are they always going to win or is scaled so player number won't factor in?

How many characters aren't unlocked before beating story mode?

Is Baraka in the game?

Are all stages a uniform length?

Question the first - Does online not suck? that'd be cool if online didn't suck.

Question the second. Is there substantial evidence to the idea that the inclusion of freddy directly lead to increased sales for mk9? Was this the deciding factor behind having Jason in the game?

Question the third... Don't you think Jason and Kenshi are fucking stupid? lolol

I have a question for Larry. Why is rock band 4 going to be able to use 360 guitar's and other instruments yet Microsoft is not doing this for mkx with 360 sticks/pads. I guess you guys aren't happy with the $500.00 I and many others spent to play ki day 1 and u want to sell that over price stick for ki . Good games Microsoft u just made me decide I am getting mkx for ps4 and pc.

The unfortunate thing is Microsoft is only concerned with selling consoles, so I'm sure they don't care if you buy MKX for PS4 & PC over Xbox One. But I agree with you on starting to regret purchasing an Xbox One. A number of things have not sat well with me since its release:
  • Being significantly underpowered compared to the PS4
  • Not being able to reach 1080p on certain games while PS4 has
  • Losing out on Street Fighter V
  • Not being able to keep Titanfall as a console exclusive
And now there's this nonsense with the last gen fightsticks. I think come next generation I'm going to jump ship because I don't think Microsoft gets it anymore.

With the drm policies, always online, and no used game garbage, I pretty much set myself on Sony again right there.

Yeah...it sucks though because I'm a big Halo & Gears of War fan so I'm still very torn on which system I want to invest in at this point. Microsoft is continuing to frustrate me by dropping the ball on things that are no-brainer business decisions. Take Street Fighter V for example...how you do think Sony scored that exclusive deal? They basically compensated Capcom for any revenue they expected to receive on a hypothetical Xbox One port. Why couldn't Microsoft do the same with Titanfall with EA? At this rate what's going to be the incentive to get an Xbox One over a PS4 if you're basically letting your competition score exclusive rights to BIG titles like Street Fighter V or letting exclusives become multi-platform like Titanfall? I honestly wonder sometimes if Microsoft even cares to be in the console business anymore.

But the announcement of Xbox 360 Rock Band instruments being compatible on Xbox One makes me wonder if maybe something will happen regarding Xbox 360 fight sticks on Xbox One. If NRS says that they'll only support Xbox 360 versions of the MK/Injustice fight sticks on Xbox One that's fine with me since I have an MK stick.
