Things you felt like should have been in MKX? (Not regarding Balance or Netcode)

[Roz]

Easy.
Tag mode, Jade, Smoke, Cyborgs, Shang and Baraka.

then we could talk about the best fighting game of all time.

Yeah, with the log in Dead Woods on the far right of the stage.

 

[J1gabyte]

-The option to deactivate automatic match recording (it clogs up your cloud if you don't delete it) or at least not have it upload to your save game cloud storage.

You can disable the automatic uploads. If you're on PS4, it's in the settings under Application Saved Data Magagement > Saved Data in Online Storage i think. hit the options button on MKX and uncheck "Auto Uploads" or whatever it is.

 

[Matador Fiend]

Stage fatalities

-Drahmin

-Jobnny Cage saying "HAAOOO!" After landing nutpunch

Crystal Lake stage

 

[Afumba]

- Skarlet (its a crime that she didnt make the main roster)
- Tournament mode
- Friendships

 

[Spooky Deadeye]

Classic DLC stages, such as the Prison of Souls. Nothing too big or fancy, but it could use more stages like Mk 9

 

[learis1]

Just overall there should have been better anti-airs. Like if certain special moves had "air crush" properties where they were invincible against air attacks only. Uppercut just gets flatout stuffed too many times.

 

[aldazo]

Being able to turn off the tornadoes in sky temple that I think are the main reason of frame drops and slowmo in that stage.

 

[ScreamQueen]

A couple of small notes, but like most of you I am really enjoying the game.

Sindel.
King can back out of KOTH without loss.
Weather effects off option.
Better matchmaking for less experienced players.
Shorter Arcade towers.
Combo trials, with character exclusive rewards/icons
maaaaaybe Friendships

 

[MK_GDROM]

Filters for searching for a match (3 Bars, 2 bars, 1bar). Will not get paired against anything lower than Green bar for ranked.
Chess Kombat w/ Online
Klassic Costumes for all Original MK Fighters (MK1-Armageddon costumes)
Klassic Fatalities
Kart Kombat w/ Online (As tacky as it was, it was fun)
Puzzle Kombat w/ Online
Animalities
Friendship(s)
Unlockable MK Music from other games (Deadly Alliance and MKD had the best soundtracks imo)
Frost
Reiko
Fujin
Havik
Smoke
Cyrax
Sektor
Shang Tsung (I know he "died", but this is MK, that doesn't really stay that way)
Konquest Mode (IMO, this was the most immersive thing they ever did with the series)
Gave better payout for koins (MKD did this best imo) (It seems like they nerfed koins so you'd be more inclined to buy krypt. Not sure if this was NRS's decision or WB's)
More alternate costumes for the new cast (IMO Cassie Cage's original render was way better than her finalized one)
Option to turn off background animations (Make it less distracting for people with ADD/ADHD)
Correct Frame Data (kind of off putting for those of us who want to learn the game)
Fully Functional Playback System w/ Youtube Upload feature (would help those of us without capture cards)
More factions (Realm based instead of "Clans", would of preferred Edenia, Chaosrealm, Netherrealm, Earthrealm, Orderrealm, ect.)
Make a faction limit (Can't have over [insert amount of people here] in one faction, factions also rotate so everyone can be a part of each one. After you have obtained level cap in each faction you can stay with one)

 

[Skkra]

true matchmaking that finds players of equal skill level.

The first time I hopped online - the first time, 0/0 record - I was matched up with a guy who had 1000+ wins/under 100 losses. Great matchmaking algorithm you got there!

As a professional programmer myself, seeing garbage like that, particularly when there are tens of thousands of people playing, really grinds my gears. That's the best the system could match up?

 

[Apock]

SMOKE

 

[aldazo]

Kart Kombat w/ Online (As tacky as it was, it was fun)
Friendship(s)
Unlockable MK Music from other games (Deadly Alliance and MKD had the best soundtracks imo)
Reiko
Fujin
Havik
Smoke
Cyrax
Sektor
Shang Tsung (I know he "died", but this is MK, that doesn't really stay that way)

Yeah!!

 

[Sultani]

Non retarded throw teching

Baraka, noob, shang tsung, cyrax, sektor, kabal, smoke, skarlet, and nightwolf.

 

[Tony at Home]

Option to have a dedicated run button.

 

[MK_GDROM]

Option to have a dedicated run button.

If only they did that instead of keeping stance button/ stance specific stuff.

 

[DixieFlatline78]

Something that shouldn't have been in is breakers draining your stamina and taking 4 times longer to recover. You're already losing all your defensive options and maybe your ability to make a comeback, making it piss easy to ensure their meter was wasted.

 

[RelentlessOhio]

1) Smoke.
2) Ping numbers instead of colourful bars

This pretty much. No Smoke = fail (at least partly).

And I can't stand the ping bars. They are either grey, barely yellow, or red. AKA you never know wtf is gonna happen when you get in.

And then that awful moment when the character select screen lags in the match, and you realize you're fucked, and it's input-delay time.

 

[villainous monk]

Option to turn off interactibles with out 1 player and 2 player having to BOTH choose interactibles off. Player one can choose to have it off & Player2 can have it on if she/he wishes. It messes with my inputs hardcore every time I'm by one and I'm in full combo or whatnot and I activate it by pressing 1,2 together. Rrraaagghhh I hate it so bloody much!!! This. Is. A. MUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Konquest Mode or a mini Mythologies game about Quan Chi or Shang Tsung's detailed past leading up to MK1
Puzzle Kombat.
Full variation training mode based off of MKDA or MKD or even Street Fighter EX Plus Alpha series where If you complete 100% you get a secret character.
Tournament Mode
Option to face a secret character depending on win streaks, flawless victories, Fatalities or Brutalities.
Mini MKII game with out variation WITH Shang Tsung & Baraka as secret characters to beat and win if possible
Fujin.
Rain
Sareena
Frost.
Baraka



Baraka. The game needs him.

 

[RelentlessOhio]

Baraka was always my least favorite Klassic character, but to each his/her own.

Definitely miss Smoke and Rain though

 

[Game Scavenger]

Frost should have been on the team with Cassie, Takeda, Jacquie, and Kung Jin. There wasn't anyone on the team to represent the Lin Kuei who are also protecting Earthrealm after all they are the next generation of fighters right so why not? MKX comics should have been the plot to the game instead. I hate inconsistent story and characters who are godlike at one moment running over everyone then suddenly they are a pushover cough (Shinnok).

I don't know if you've ever paid attention to the continuity of MK games, but this is definitely nothing new. Changing the story and the non-canon parts and such.

 

[snort]

FRIENDSHIP, FRIENDSHIP

 

[xWildx]

A few more stages....

....and Sindel. Hair command grabs, levi, and scream variations please.

 

[RelentlessOhio]

FRIENDSHIP, FRIENDSHIP

Ah the days of II/III/Trilogy.

"FRIENDSHIP? Friendship, again?!"

I always loved how disappointed the announcer sounded.

 

[Game Scavenger]

I already know too well with MK but still with the series rebooted and a clean slate and they just jump into the same old habits oh well.
