Kombat Pack 2 Coming Soon? Maximilian's Video About MKX's Future DLC

For me, the huge flaw of this whole story is how Boon considered this video "interesting" just because it came out of Maximilian's mouth. Honestly, what's interesting about it? It's not even about news or anything else, I take this video as his analysis of a whole situation, which is fine, he has his opinions and everything else, but his analysis differ NOTHING from the people shouting in Boon's tweets every time. He could very much grab any of those tweets he gets and say "oh, it's interesting perspective towards the future of MKX DLC".

Instead someone with no insight of MK whatsoever is put on a pedestal with an interesting opinion. Why is that? Is that an excuse so you can prepare your fans that want more fresh and actual interesting stuff, for MK9 2.0 pack? Is that it? Get real, Boon. You know what's interesting about MKX right now? Shawn Kittelsen. Maximilian is no writer, granted, but I wish he could articulate this thing better for an "interesting" video, if it's gonna be considered "interesting" whatever he says. So either that, or don't even spread a video as something new if it's gonna be about the same thing, and getting people to hype towards the same thing AGAIN when the fans want something fresh, something new, things we miss since 2006 MKA (yeah because we were sticking around even during THAT game).

This is just another video that enforces casual rage, because it's like back when Tanya was announced, people on Facebook and Twitter like "take this shit alway from here, tonya wtf give us baraka, give us shang tsung, give us cyrax". Uninformed video, and lacking interest, probably just meant to catch some views, and then mass produce these people asking for a pack that NRS might even think doesn't fit MKX time, but might abide due to requests. This is just sad. Reason why I wish more people that knows about MK, would go there and be influent as him, create appeal to the lore of the game, create appeal and demand for new (truly, if we're going for the real definition of the word) "interesting" stuff, instead of what we JUST had the last title. People waiting for Smoke since 2011? Oh that's cruel, just imagine those Li Mei fans though, the ones that actually stood by the series until 2006, the last time she was playable. I'm not even a big Li Mei guy, just sayin.

I'm definitely not mad about "losing 3 minutes of my day watching it", it was actually entertaining to watch how clueless he is even though he cares enough to make a video, or does he?

Whatever, keeping my hopes up for KP2, after all, KP1 was good MK-wise, both kharacters from MK4 days, fitting both komic and story mode plots, here's hoping for more of this, and not any kind of Kitana, Kung Lao and Liu like inclusion.

ahah ;) did they good with Predator, but remember Predator is more straight forward, weapons actual fighting etc.. Xenomorphs are more Animal, could be a bit harder to make them work, but i believe

I think if they call it a Story pack, so ALL from story should be there, sindel, rain, baraka, enemra, kabal and striker so it's make 6 chars like injustice.
1 cyborg with cyrax variation, sektor and smoke variations can be a good idea, anyway they can't put cyrax withouth sektor or put sektor and not cyrax because of fans so 3in1 is a good idea.
Personally I think, there will be story pack + kombat pack 2

Have faith brother.

Making Predator as good as he is was no less of a tall order.

I really will move on if Fujin isn't in the KP2 because that would be some serious bullshit.
Well let me ask you this, would you want him without any context and importance to the story or you would rather wait for MK11 and get him fully fleshed out and have any actual importance for the story going foward?

Those are my exact feelings for Noob, i really really want to see him in MKX but i dunno if i would rather wait and have him belong and be important to the story then a measely DLC character

With Vogel's writing you aren't guaranteed anything for the next game so I would like to see more characters like Fujin or Noob.

One of the downsides of the variation system to me (there's pros and cons to everything) is that by each character having three variations, it nixes more characters that could potentially be a part of the roster.

Fujin was considered a lock for MKX after MK9. After him not being in this game I don't know if we're going to see Fujin again so I would rather have him as DLC rather than not at all. He did have a small part in the story but he deserved so much more imo.

Well, his more importante role is yet to come with the arc of Dark Raiden, so i think he is a high contender for the next game... We will see tho, im not sure what they want to do with him but his envolment in MKX is very sketchy, 3 mins of air time and then when things get rought he doesnt show up ever again... so i dunno, but we will see KP2 soon so its just a matter of time i guess

Yeah, I think Fujin is having quite a huge role probably as the new protector of Earthrealm in the next game. But if we think about it, he's one of the guys that probably has most screen time compared to other cameos, so it seems just about right to fit him as DLC, and in MKXI as base roster inclusion, same as (as I see) should be done with Rain in this game.

.... they mostly come at night. Mostly.
I guess that for a KP2, gonna have it only one guest this time .... and , only one female character , so, maybe:]
- the female character will be Sindel or Sareena
- guest : Xenomorph is a great choice, but, NRS can consider that "Spawn" rumour idea as truly hypothetical good stuff to boost sell numbers for DLC, so ..... :oops:
- Fujin
- Baraka
I don't believe Rain can make into MKX, since , despite Boon being such a dirty troll, I believe he was serious about not using none previous DLC released in MK9, so, no Rain .... :p
 
I honestly don't believe an Xenomorph will be DLC. Boon wasn't exactly praising the new alien movies on twitter and I imagine that it would be hard as fuck to design them as a character. They had problems including Reptile's tail so they decided against it, same thing probably happened here.

I hope if Baraka [...]
Reiko and Havik

[...] don't make it into MKX, they can return in some form in MKXI, maybe as some kind of revenant of their former selves, I don't know. I also like the idea of a weakened playable Shao Kahn, that's not huge when it comes to power, but might have some kind of key role, but that would be about MKXI.

Erm... lol, why not both?

Y'know...kinda like Kenshi. That's pretty much how I feel about Rain, because at least he's had a bit of spotlight and I'd rather just have him included in the initial roster for the first time in MK11. But Fujin? I just see it as a now or never kind of deal. It's WAY past due for his return, especially after having barely missed a DLC spot in MK9.
