Exactly. Only the minority will contribute to this F2P phenomena... it wont attenuate our efforts. I just think we need to give it a little time to fail...

Sweet deal indeed, but if M$ can get your $60 from the start by just selling it, you know they would. Something is strange here.Actually, this idea is both sad and interesting. Imagine if Injustice was 100% free and you only had to pay for the characters and stages you cared about/wanted to main. I would've probably only paid 10-20$ instead of 60$ which sounds like a pretty sweet deal for such a fun game.
That is the problem though. How do you know which characters you want to play/main. I mean it wouldn't be so bad if every character was available in training or something so you could test them out.So let's pretend it's like this:
Black Orchid - 5$
Chief Thunder - 5$
Cinder - 5$
Fulgore - 5$
Glacius - 5$
Jago - FREE
Kim Wu - 5$
Maya - 5$
Riptor - 5$
Sabrewulf - 5$
Spinal - 5$
TJ Combo - 5$
Tusk - 5$
If that's all the characters they have then that's 60$ for the full game which is reasonable I guess. (then again, I'd rather not have to buy every pieces of the game separately)
If they have 4 or more new characters then the full game price will be 80$ or more and that's when it starts getting pretty expensive. You know, for something that should've already been available from the get-go.

Players willing to spend 80-100$ for the full package can do so, while cheap players like me can still play and enjoy the game for a fraction of the price.
I bet we have to buy training mode too.That is the problem though. How do you know which characters you want to play/main. I mean it wouldn't be so bad if every character was available in training or something so you could test them out.
LMFAO. 10 dollars for training mode?
Garkos - 5$
We'll also have to buy the ability to press start at the main menu.
I'm just really glad that nobody is falling for it, after the initial applause. The xbone would clearly be very destructive to the FGC in particular. If everyone accepts PS4 as the standard out of the gate, it'll make life a lot easier all around for the eighth gen. No more dual modding sticks, no more adapters, no more compatibility issues, no more minute differences between consoles...
In their twisted minds Jago is the Ryu of Killer Instinct and therefore he is the only available option at the beginning.
AGAIN!!!R.I.P KI3. You died as a fetus.
You know, there were a fuckton of people that said the exact same shit about MK9.Yes. Saw that in the other thread. It is obviously not a good idea. I feel bad for everyone getting hyped for Killer Instinct... it is really disheartening to see such BS. I mean not to mention the fact that it was developed by a studio with a less than decent track record. Its graphics don't look next gen... I don't know...
Edit- I also heard it wont be tourney viable... because of the Xbox One's restrictions... I mean the game being digital only is bad enough... plus it is bound to a console that is doomed to fail.
It isn't Killer Instinct IMHO... it is just a cheap knockoff in an attempt to appeal to our nostalgia.
Oh really? I wasn't aware that MK9 was developed by people who had no idea about that series. I wasn't aware that MK fans have been adapting to changes from the beginning... MK1/MK3/MK4/Deadly Alliance/MK9. All very different games...
You can't exactly say that they don't know shit about the series. All 2 of their games have been out since..what 1998? That's plenty of time from being given a project to do some research on a whopping 2 games. The graphics of gameplay from the MK9 trailers were hella bad compared to what they released, so to judge a game based on the 2 videos released is a terrible point.Oh really? I wasn't aware that MK9 was developed by people who had no idea about that series. I wasn't aware that MK fans have been adapting to changes from the beginning... MK1/MK3/MK4/Deadly Alliance/MK9. All very different games...
MK9 also properly hyped itself up... it also had up to date graphics... it wasn't digital only... it wasn't exclusive... it wasn't bound to a failing console... obviously it has had a pretty successful tourney life (something KI3 will never get)... it is not a cheap knock off to appeal to our nostalgia... but rather a game to go back to its 3d roots.
Do I need to point out that MK9 wasn't a F2P cash grab?
As an MK fan... obviously I think that is full of horseshit. I know some people were worried... but MK9 was nothing like this piece of trash KI. I am surprised fans of the series are even considering it as a part of the main series. Personally I would be pissed if my favorite franchise was desecrated in an attempt to sell more consoles...

Oh. I wasn't sure what you were getting at so I tried to counter everything... I mean yeah... but I doubt they were MK fans. I wasn't complaining... at all! I cant speak for anyone else though.
haha its all good man! The response you gave me, I wasn't too sure where I was getting at myself lmao.Oh. I wasn't sure what you were getting at so I tried to counter everything... I mean yeah... but I doubt they were MK fans. I wasn't complaining... at all! I cant speak for anyone else though.
No doubt. I hope the game is what everyone wanted it to be. Honestly I am dropping off. I don't have the nostalgia to warrant it... I just tried the games out... never got into them.
I was maybe 7 when I played it the first time. It was so fun, regardless of how shit I was lol. The combos and fatalities were so much like mk, it felt like playing mk with different skins and no run button haha.No doubt. I hope the game is what everyone wanted it to be. Honestly I am dropping off. I don't have the nostalgia to warrant it... I just tried the games out... never got into them.
