Things you felt like should have been in MKX? (Not regarding Balance or Netcode)

[Bidu]

At least a few classic stages, more stage fatalities, Cyrax, Smoke.

Yeah basically that's what I can think off.

 

[BloodyNights]

-I'd like for the delay in King of the Hill to vanish. It currently has more delay than 1v1 even when no one else is in the room.
-The Champion of KOTH, should have the ability to go AFK, mute someone, leave, look at the side messages in the chat...basically should have options instead of just auto forced to play the next match, and take a loss if they have to do something...like use the bathroom.
-Noob Saibot
-Tag Mode, I like this mode because in a circle of friends it allows 4 people to play at once, and will make people more likely to play if one person is just too strong for 1v1's plus....beating two characters with one is pretty awesome...lol
-Something I'd like to see implemented in all fighting games, is...Someone uploads a combo to the server, or set of combos. Then other players can try out those combos in game. So the casuals can try and complete...let's just say Slips or MIT's Scorpion combos, for fun, or for learning what the character can do.
-Alternatively trial modes.
-Stage Fatalities
-Babalities
-Friendships
-Better Match Making.
-I actually liked the tower challenges from MK9, climbing that tower was a lot more entertaining then any of the living towers has been. So I'd like to see that make a return.

Cyr-- oh fuck it

 

[NaughtySenpai]

A good netcode
Stage Fatalities
Klassic Stages
Shang Tsung
Friendships (Faction kills are lame)
Machete - Think about it. He's the perfect fit for Mortal Kombat. His first fatality would be "Machete Kills" and his second "Machete Kills again"
Smoke
Skarlet
A krypt that isn't a free to play scheme bullshit money scam.
Cursor memorizing which character you picked last.
More colors for costumes and color previews.

The Krypt is easy. I've been spending most of my time online or in the lab and I have well over 60% unlocked already. I already have all the inventory items, and the shrine unlocked.

Shit is easy dude.

But Klassic stages for sure.

 

[ShaolinGunFu]

Why the FUCK is there no cyber smoke

 

[MIleena Student]

I would pay $20 for tag back. Me and my friend played that all the time on mk9 and it's what got us into it.

Me too!!! Tag was the best and so many people played it. MKX feels to much like Injustice to me, not as fun as MK9 was and tag is a big part of it.
Also MKX is too slow to finish a match and get a new one started, like IGAU is slow. MK9 you'd finish a match and go right into a new one without too much waiting.

They didn't put human Smoke in, obviously..

 

[themagiccan2]

This is not an MK thing but I really want to see the 8v8 mode soul calibur 2 had. I know all these characters but I can only play one at once

 

[RelentlessOhio]

The question is, can you play them all well?

 

[Deleted member 9158]

Smoke, because Smoke.

Online training mode to help learn match-ups or just get basic character training under your belt with someone else.

Deeper tutorial system, rather than just "press this button to punch."

Anything at all that isn't the Krypt. Seriously, my hatred of that place burns with the fury of 1,000 suns.

Better regional matchmaking. I swear, every time I get matched with someone online they're playing from the future.

There is an online training mode. I help my brother practice the game online that way.

 

[Smoke_Of_Finland]

Option to turn off interactibles with out 1 player and 2 player having to BOTH choose interactibles off. Player one can choose to have it off & Player2 can have it on if she/he wishes. It messes with my inputs hardcore every time I'm by one and I'm in full combo or whatnot and I activate it by pressing 1,2 together. Rrraaagghhh I hate it so bloody much!!! This. Is. A. MUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Konquest Mode or a mini Mythologies game about Quan Chi or Shang Tsung's detailed past leading up to MK1
Puzzle Kombat.
Full variation training mode based off of MKDA or MKD or even Street Fighter EX Plus Alpha series where If you complete 100% you get a secret character.
Tournament Mode
Option to face a secret character depending on win streaks, flawless victories, Fatalities or Brutalities.
Mini MKII game with out variation WITH Shang Tsung & Baraka as secret characters to beat and win if possible
Fujin.
Rain
Sareena
Frost.
Baraka



Baraka. The game needs him.

I think the 1+2 interactable and 1+3 throw commands are there so people who are used to claw grip could play the game by mapping block and stance switch to the left hand triggers as well as catering to stick players. IMO there should be an option to allow/disallow all of the 2 button inputs separately.

The title of this thread reads to me like "who's your favorite thoroughbred? Can't say Secretariat."

Honestly 21st century netcode is the only thing this game is really lacking.

I find the absence of Smoke, Noob and Rain to be pretty surprising though.

Actually I lied, #1 complaint here is that this is Run-Up 50/50: The Game. The mechanic is way too overused. I get that a lot of people out there think that the only correct way to play a fighter is to get in your opponents face and press all your buttons but holy shit some people enjoy a little nuance here and there and they kinda got the shaft in this game.

 

[RM_NINfan101]

There are a lot of good things in this thread for sure!

Definitely agree with the KOTH issues. The king should definitely be allowed to not take a loss after his match is done and can go AFK.

 

[Sk8Noob]

Been said many times, but:

Stage Fatalities
Animalities
Friendships
More Stages
Much better match making.

An option to easily switch variations after a match without having to go back to the character select screen (if they can do it in training mode i don't get why they can't add it in 2-player or online).

Option to turn off the jump scares in the Krypt. I'll freely admit to being a huge wuss and all I want to do is unlock stuff that should be unlocked in the first place without bracing myself every 5 seconds.

Bring back the challenge tower. The Living Towers are a cool idea but at the end of the day it's still just one-on-one matches, throw some variety in there.

 

[BigMilk]

Fujin

 

[beep_ima_sheep]

There's only one answer and it's Smoke

 

[SepticFir8]

The challenge tower.

A bunch of unique missions that are character-specific, with a bunch of random modifiers. It was fantastic. The living towers just aren't as cool.

I kinda miss Shang Tsung...he was one of my characters all the way back to Mortal Kombat 2. There are still a ton of characters that I like in this game, so it's not as big of a deal to me.

 

[SGX]

Block canceling dashes.
A separate run button.

Game would be perfect.

 

[Zatoichi]

• Kintaro Skin for Goro
• Secret unlockable characters like Fujin or Rain
• Revenant Jade Skin for Kitana
• Behind The Scenes Developer videos
• Concept Art for Goro. NRS should release Concept Art for the DLC characters, I'm really interested in the different designs and stages the characters went though.
• Character Creation Development commentary videos.

 

[juicepouch]

The first time I hopped online - the first time, 0/0 record - I was matched up with a guy who had 1000+ wins/under 100 losses. Great matchmaking algorithm you got there!

As a professional programmer myself, seeing garbage like that, particularly when there are tens of thousands of people playing, really grinds my gears. That's the best the system could match up?

did you win?

 

[juicepouch]

also why tf does goro have no alternate skins

what is that bs

i demand a skin where he keeps the cape on

 

[jharris]

online tournament mode

a secret unlockable character

 

[medleyoz]

Option to have a dedicated run button.

This. Think I'd be much better at the run cancels If there was just a button for it rather than needing to do ff block. Too many things are mapped to the block button - block (duh), x ray, run, ex specials and yet we have the stance change button because....??

Also disappointed with no alternate costumes for Goro or Jason and also missed opportunity to add a Camp Crystal Lake stage to the game.
