What's new

Spoiler Thread. People officially have the game already (NO STORY SPOILERS)

Only 1 week to go and it looks like it's a reasonable time for the flood gates to be open.

The other spoiler thread was locked so I think it's a good time to make one again where people could post their spoilers.

The dudes who happen to get early copies and stuff always, without failure, every single time end up:
  • showing things we've already seen (i.e Erron Black's Fatality earlier from this thread)
  • showing a big thing we have not seen yet but very briefly and with as little details as possible (Frost)
  • showing a random amount of random things we have not seen (i.e Kitana, Skarlet, Noob Saibot, Erron Black, Shao Kahn skins)
  • taking pictures with their phones even though every system nowadays has a built-in screenshot function. I understand phone pics are faster though, but still
  • disappearing shortly afterwards
Like, literally every single time this happens lol.
The screenshot thing is because pre release games dont allow you to screenshot
 
I always wanted a storyline where Sub & Frost were literally on the run from the being hunted. Give them a chance to bond, then have her betray Sub in order to save her own skin. But that backfired on her, leading to her own capture/cyberization. Then she has a hostile takeover of the Tekunin, renames herself Frostbyte, and hunts down Sub herself for one final showdown.
This story is currently available on my website for $129.63
I actually love the idea! Just anything where we can see Frost and Sub-Zero actually bond and have some kind of interesting dynamic that isn't just her being an angry traitor. That part of her character is signature of course, but it'd be so much more interesting if we as the audience actually felt said betrayal or found it tragic. I know this is a fighting game franchise where the goal is to gruesomely end your opponent, but I'm a firm believer that MK could tell some great character-driven stories with the incredible lore it has going for it if it tried. Heres hoping for that eventual animated film or more comics.

Oh, and nice PFP btw! Nightbreed is a favorite of mine, and I've always wanted to get myself a Dr. Decker mask at some point.
 
It is very common for video game fans to consider anything other than skinny, long hair, big tits, ass out, skin out, as "ugly." A sad truth lol.
And it's cause of them we won't see a buff Cassie :( Do you remember how freaking BUFF Kitana looked in 9? I'd want that but obviously a bit more realistic for Cassie and Sonya and Jacqui, it would make sense for them.

Yeah totally. It would make sense for the female characters to be more buff. I mean they went through the effort of letting Ronda Rousey give Sonya terrible voice acting, why not give her Ronda's built body structure also? Lol
 
I feel like what we see is the cyber version. I just think she’s a new, upgraded model, compared to what we’ve seen in the past. Kinda like the T-800 vs the T-1000 model terminator. Something totally new.
I didn't consider that! You could be right with how mechanized the armor looks, and the way her eyes seem to have a cybernetic tinge to them. I wouldn't mind it either, but I kind of would like to see something a bit more traditional if it's an option.

Exactly, how can they expose Sonya's stomach but not give her the biggest, most buff abs on this planet? It's a shameful thing to do imo.
 
Sadly they do these female images to please men in some way or another.
At least they stopped making every single female a stripper and that’s amazing.

I mean... we have guys hating on tomboy haircuts, honestly men shouldn’t even have an opinion on female haircuts because if it’s not the long hair super feminine hairstyle they dislike it so yeah, that’s one of the reasons they don’t make females buff. These crazy guys get mad over any single “manly” feature they can find
 
That Half-Blood stance looks seriously good. That Sai Stabs special goes into KB and the Up Sai is similar to pre-patch Sektor up missles, and the Telekick is Strong af. I'm gonna be exploring it for sure. I posted her frame data in the Kitana discussion thread, I used a program to break it down frame by frame.
I’m going to be trying it out, for sure. The teleport concerns me though. I can’t imagine reacting to projectiles, jumps, etc. by having to go into the stance first will be easy, and that in and of itself seems to gimp it’s usefulness to a degree, but we’ll see.
 
Has that been confirmed? It isn't part of her grabs or anything?
Nothing that has been shown thus far. In a perfect world, NRS will add in an equippable moveset similar to Jade’s staff normals that make more use of the sai in Kitana’s base movset.
 
Isn't she like 80 though? I don't think Sonya is a Gymrat like Cassie anymore. Young Sonya is, the one in the rad as fuck spandex XD
Respect your elders, you dirty ageist. XD

You speak facts. Facts and nothing but. The lack of buff chicks is a crime against nature.
It really is, as a buff chick myself I feel like I am missing this representation in my life and no I ain't gonna play OW to get it XD
