Questions about MKX in preparation for PS3 release.

I'm a casual player trying to decide if I'm going to buy this or not. I have some questions:

1. How is the online? Is it like offline or is it a different game online?
2. Is there a Kabal-like character that completely dominates the roster?
3. Are there trash-tier characters like Kano and Sheeva?
4. Is there really stupid spam like what Noob-Saibot, Kenshi, and so forth became?
5. Is there a character like Raiden or Kung Lao, that while not the strongest in game, is braindead easy at the casual level?

Basically, how much bullshit is there to deal with?

It all depends on your sensitivity.
I think there is no bullshit anywhere in the game, but a good chunk of this site and recent threads evidently tries real hard to call a lot of stuff bullshit.

Cory, Trevor, smokes. Let's go.
I just want to play a fighting game where the smarter player wins, not just the player with gimmicks.
I think it's safe to say that at first, it's about the gimmicks. Once you know what's what, of course the smarter player will win. There isn't really a character in this game who's autopilot is so effective that a smart player can't get around it.

Basically, how much bullshit is there to deal with?
1.) Online is Decent enough
2.) Depends on who you ask, imo still too early to say
3.) Kotal Khan(Blood God)
4.) Noob was free in the 1st place
5.) Mileena, Kung Jin, and Scorpion are going to body your shit for a long while

well considering it was delayed until fall you have more time to consider
lol are you serious? Talk about getting the shaft. Still though I understand why, it's time to upgrade people. Last Gen consoles are finished, there have been many promotions for discounts and trade ins to have upgraded by now.

1) Dunno, my connection sucks so I don't even bother playing online
2) Still too early, for the moment it seems unlikely.
3) Many variation in this game are useless some are more useless than others but nearly every character has a decent one (Kenshi I'm looking at you)
4) Zoning is quite weak in this game due to the run mechanic; the real problem in MKX are retarded 50/50.
5) Kung Jin.

1. online is fine, just gotta respect ping lol

2. Nope, thank god for that cause of variations help limit this so characters won't have to much

3. erm no not really. Too early i guess

4. jaqui WAS an issue then people got adjusted quickly

5. still kinda early to say who is & who isn't ;S

look man, I'm not ignorant to people with financial problems and I never said consoles newer consoles were cheap either but when it's been 2 years and there have been promotions nearly cutting the price in half and avenues to purchase from like ebay and craigslist, it is very hard for me to imagine that in the last 2 years you haven't spent money totaling the cost of a New console on other frivolous things...like buying games for a last gen console for example. :DOGE
