Do you think MK11 seems too similar to injustice?

[igotAhalo]

Ok I'm 100 percent fine with it being like mk9. I dont care about the look (in regards to injustice comparison) because injustice looked amazing. And when did they say the combos would be shorter?

 

[scarsunseen]

Looks like MK9 and Inj2.

 

[Eldriken]

I definitely got the Injustice 2 vibe from it.

But y'know what? I think the change in direction and pace may be a good thing.

 

[CrimsonShadow]

People keep saying MK9, but imo this game doesn't look anything like MK9.

The dashing-style movement is all but gone.
The armor isn't there
There are interactibles
This Fatal Blow and Krushing Blow stuff really alters the meta
The way you burn meter is an evolution of MKX and Injustice 2
The wakeup system is drastically altered

The movement reminds me of MK2, but the mechanics are a mix of Injustice 2, MKX, Street Fighter, and a couple other games + Ed Boon's constantly rotating mind. The engine itself is definitely MKX.

So do you think I should just not even think about it until I play the game ? Everything looked great, like I said that's my only fear

I am not going to drop this card much, but as somebody who actually played it, I never once thought “oh man, this is like Injustice!”. In general, I’d say it is MKX with the needed compensations when you removed the run button. It is as much of a change from MKX as MKX was to 9.

Suddenly getting flashbacks of people saying MKX was just IGAU because of interactables

Yeah Imo it's best to just take MK11 is being it's own thing completely and approach it for what it is. And we're on stage -1 of the meta, so who knows how it's going to turn out.

But that's also kind of the excitement of it all.

I think MK11 looks like MK11

I think you're right.

Lowkey, it is basically American UNIST. They both have like 40 bars and perfect guards

Also I think a lot of people are judging from the US exhibition matches, which looked completely different from the EU ones. There's no way you can watch the Ketchup vs. Mustard set and say this game is too similar to Injustice. It's Mortal Kombat through and through.

I actually didnt see their matches, I need to now

Ah shit, I was going to call myself the best MK11 Player on TYM in my write up (joke being nobody else played it) and I am just remembering you played it too. The dream is dead

My record ended up at 14 wins, 6 losses. If you beat it, you're welcome to the title

Bear in mine there's no in game sound and Derek seems to be strung out on amphetamines, but the twins had more time with the game than any of the players that participated in the exhibition and seem a little more comfortable in their play.

Nope, I went 3-2. I basically ran a short set with a guy (found out that Sub has a D2 brutality when he was practicing) and ran another set solo to mess with Skarlet. Second best it is

Wow, ok, I think that answered my questions there. That looked a lot better. If they are landing combos like that now it will be much better when people get their hands on the game for longer

Thank God “the top players” have abandoned this site, now we have total control (I know a good number lurk, until they speak up this is how it is)

it looks alot like injustice and that kinda sucks but its still mortal kombat so i fucking love it

 

[Lex Luthor II]

Verily, I am VERY HAPPY that this is the case. I made some post a bit back hoping it was half Injustice half MKX and here we go!

 

[Marinjuana]

I think it looks similar to Injustice 2 in all of the best ways, namely the existence of neutral with depth and colorful art direction.

 

[TackyHaddock]

Am I too much of a traditionalist in requesting that characters still perform one or more flips when they jump?? That was one of my favorite aspects of the early MK games!

 

[DDustiNN]

Neither. To me it’s looking more like MK2 and MK9, with a hint of Injustice 2 regarding gear. But gameplay-wise, it looks like it’s going to be noticeably different.
