What's new

Do we really need KP3?

Tbh the best route I would say is to just reveal one character at the kombat Kast AT MOST. I'm one of those who agree with the notion that KP3 like its predecessors will be broken and unbalanced, and tbh I don't feel like playing 50/50 Kombat X through another Kombat Pack. I'm waiting for MK11 for the new story and new roster:

But it would be super hype for them to like suprise announce and show off a trailer for Noob Saibot at the Kast and they'll be like "Coming this Tuesday to all platforms..." Holy fucking tits.

The game legitimately has more than enough content already to be respected in that regard. If the game could reach whatever level of balance people are dreaming of in one, end of life patch then there is a really good argument to do that. However, I think there are other things to consider.

One is who does that benefit? Mostly pros and a lot of them are saying they are kind of done with the game no matter what happens. Perfect balance is really only critical in competition and if the competitive days are running out then I question the need to prioritize balance above the potential positives more content could bring.

I definitely think we are getting close to the point where more would just be more, but if they focus on more superficial content like costumes or stages, and drop in a couple of the wet dream characters that could be pretty cool, and that's all stuff we would have forever.

Who the crap is going to to be able to explain why Kenshi sucks 10 years from now? People will just want to know if they can play noob or not.

Could be wrong, but I think it's good either way. I do think it feels like KP3 is in the air. If it is happening then it would be great if they just played it safe this time around.
 
When inj 2 drops most people are gonna switch
no. just no.

it happened from mk9 to inj, yes, but that was because mk9 was fundamentally flawed. that is not the case with mkx. i mean, there was still an mk9 Scene after injustice dropped, it even had another great evo showing. if the new patch really balances mkx well, mkx fans will stay on mkx, and injustice fans will play injustice. and people can also play both.

If we don't get an official confirmation before the end of the year, then I think it's safe to say that NRS is finished with MKX.

After we got Alien - i.e. the greatest Mortal Kombat character of all time - we don't even need a KP3.

I was all for until you said he should have Laos mk9 tele and that's just because I want mkx Lao to have mk9 tele back. I miss being a bird.
 
That is to say KP3 is happening who knows.

But let me tell you how your logic is faulty!

now for why i think the logic is flawed, How the hell does anyone know we won't have same problem after patch, What if with certain nerfes we repeat what made Alien and Sonya and Mileena so great, they get nerfed and 5 more replace them as the new god tier or Close to S.
This is assuming they actually balance and not tier shift like I mentioned in the OT. Adding more characters, especially when they are working on another game for early next year will be tough to balance against 30+ characters. Those characters could be OP or straight up trash. Who knows if the next patch will balance or not -- only time will tell. But I'm saying if it does actually balance the game, do we want to risk possibly having KP3 with OP characters like Alien or Tanya? Fact: Each KP had an insanely good character that was just too much to handle upon their release.

.... they mostly come at night. Mostly.
might be sarcastically funny if NRS/Ed Boon in fact just make KP3, and after that, the "fans" start trolling and begging for .... KP4 .... aff !! if indeed happens, I sincerelly hope KP3 to be the very last one characters pack release for this game. We can survive next with Injustice 2 and wait for MK11 until 2019 ... :D

Maybe we should forget about KP3 and just enjoy MK after this patch, assuming they balance and not tier shift. Let's just appreciate the game and be thankful. What do you guys think?
Ive said this before elsewhere but i would love a KP3/patch just to tweek some stuff because i enjoy the game and want to continue playing it but with new NRS games that come out it usually kills the online for the old one after a bit..

I guess i feel like if KP3 were to come out it could fix some issue and also possible extend the life of the game a bit cause if they leave it as is well..ppl are going to move over to injustice 2 anyway...i feel i might get ppl to even start playing MKX again ya know? A bro can dream though..

...If joker is back in Injustice 2 then i would probably move over though lol
