Do we have a time for this yet?

 

Do we have a time for this yet?

This morning, possibly by 8am est, but not sure

 

Post updated - thanks @colby4898 !

 

More 'Kameo cancels Kameo' moves will help the meta in the long run.

 

Had to say; Khaos Shang and Khaos Quan look SICK!

Hope they're available ASAP.

 

fuck yeah, Sektor gameplay looks pretty damn cool and good ! Also that fatality was a truly homage to MCU Iron Man, lol !

 

Looks very cool! Excited for the new variants of stages - and new kameo moves as well!

Hope this comes with lots of (unique) new skins as well.

 

Sektor looks pretty meh stylistic wise, but I think that's kinda Sektor in general, he/she is just a cyborg/cyber suit with a projectiles and a flamethrower so nothing spectacular. Was hoping the new era would change that, maybe more interesting flame thrower action or completely new cyber suit tools, but looks like not really so far, mostly just rocket boot stuff.

 

Jax stocks on the rise!

 

Is it just me or are they pulling the old MKX trailer trick where they speed up the gameplay footage? The game looks faster in this trailer, and its not just Sektor because we've seen her strings before in the other teasers

 

That Fatal Blow and fatality left a lot to be desired. What the fuck...

 

Looks pretty dope.

The Iron Man reference was the only thing I didn't like about the fatality.
The Fatal Blow I loved, but I've always loved the rapid, multi-hit Xrays like Jacqui and Liu Kang had in X

That's fair. I did get a really big Iron Man/MCU vibe from the fatality for sure. I was like, "...I've seen this somewhere before." lololol

I don't dislike multi-hitting FBs/Xrays, it's just it was so bland! But how do you make a multi-hitting FB not bland, right? I guess I can't be too hard on that when I look at it like that.

Either way, the fatality was dogshit in comparison. xD

 

I feel like cyrax is a LOT closer gameplay wise to their original design that sektor?

Sektor has mostly been about good projectiles and mid/fullscreen conversions with really long buttons.

NuSektor seems to have flight as a major part of her kit, and another "in there" character, and the fatal blow is just lame and bland in comparison to even kameo Sektor's fatal blow?

I think they nailed cyrax, but I'm not feeling Sektor in the slightest so far.

Edit-

Ehhh the buttons/range stuff might be there and just hidden in their need to mostly show off combos, but like...watching sektor get a fullscreen knockdown and then dash in repeatedly feels wrong. Hoping it's just trailer.

Oh also it's fucking WEIRD that given bihan is one of the only 100% bad guys in the story right now that they seem to want to go the "must save bi han/must be loyal" route? It's...acting like he isn't an unrepentant asshole for the entire story?

 

It might just be me but I'm having a real hard time reading Sektor's attacks, it all kind of blurs together and lacks distinction.

 

Looks like Sektor might have a very easy to tech throw.

Jax tanked a projectile while sliding up to choke out Darrius. Thats incredible

 

Well, she doesn't seem like OG sektor at all, so I guess I will just ignore the name and hope to get some other palette than red. Considering her a brand new character, she is quite ok, but I liked the yellow-supersoldier a bit better.

Sektor is probably a bad guy and is loyal to Bi-Han, another bad guy.

Not unprecedented in the series.

 

So who wants to bet on how many pages this thread gets to before we start talking about woke ideologues, misogyny, Lord of the Rings, and fucking Kafka?

one of the hardest characters to come up with anything interesting ngl.
maybe they should focus more on normals and less on specials, at least that's how MK9 sektor got some interesting stuff going for him, the leg lift for an oh/low mix was pretty great, i haven't seen on this sektor
