New Details for Player Appreciation Week

This week is Player Appreciation Week in Mortal Kombat 11, as announced late last week. If you have no idea what that means (you shouldn't, unless you work for NRS) then have I got some news for you!



As you can see in the chart above, there's going to be stuff going on all week. Monday is giving everyone a shot at the most requested gear and skins in a rotating boss tower. Tuesday is for Brutalities, coming via those long towers with the multiple stages to get through. Wednesday and Thursday are just community outreach stuff via Discord and Twitch, so if you were looking for stuff to watch/do at those times that will be fun.

 

Nice!

 

why do people even care about maskless gear that much

All that graphic effort for the masks down the drain. RIP but Skarlet is actually pretty af so

To me it only makes sense for Skarlet. All her masks are zero effort recolors, and she actually has few that are exactly the same as Jade's masks. And she looks gorgeous so yeah...
My Jade is also maskeless but at least she has few very nice options.

Because you can see characters’ mouths move in their intros and outros

I’m just happy it’s still going on after I get off of work lol. I don’t care what it is, I want it.

 

I love Skarlet’s maskless look. Great character model, and as a plus I can actually understand her intro dialogue because it doesn’t have a filter.

The small touches without the mask are great, and make you feel bad for whoever had to do the animations that seldom see the light of day. During Skarlet’s fatal blow she gets a wicked grin as she runs her knife from her opponents belly up to their sternum. It’s a great character touch that is lost with a mask.

Im in the same boat... I saw your post on the mk11 discussion forum.. Im kind of surprised no one else in the PC space is talking about it.

FonicSox just posted the schedule, it is not in there.

 

FYI - in case you're waiting for a certain piece.

well I mean that's what subtitles are for but I see your point. i've only ever really noticed the work done during her fatal blow.

jade and skarlet have some nice ass masks. some i wish the male ninjas had but jade is pretty gorgeous

I kinda don't care about that when it comes to characters like scorpion and subzero who almost exclusively wear masks

 

Can someone in the discord ask if the towers repeat after the 7 hour cycle? I wanna go to sleep

i already got maskless skarlet from a tower a month ago.. and blood pixie skin..

Has anyone unlocked kitanas gold and navy blue rev skin thru towers yet?

 

The Wednesday and Thursday parts of this don't really seem to do anything with appreciating the players.

You can watch people stream that stream anyways
then you can ask em questions?
