After so much bitching and death threats, they gave Sonya what she needed most; her Leg Grab! Thanks Ed and MK Team!

EDIT!:

Well, wasn’t it worth it?

As we all know by now, Ed and the MK team really did listen to the fans and all our gigantic bitching, complains, anger and death threats regarding Sonya’s trademark special moves. Like many said, there was simply NO excuse to not have those back for this game (and any game from now on ^_^).

It was wonderful to see her fighting with all the powers that made her so unique and fun to play as in the old days, she truly kicked as* in the GT video!

Btw, was it just me, or did they show all her moves with the intention to say “Here you go fans, we really do hear ya!”? I just found it quite interesting/funny that they revealed each and every single one of her most proclaimed special moves in that vid.

Her overall costume and style looks amazing indeed (we can know tell the tan-bikini lines are really where her thong was supposed to be O_O), and as a fighter, effective as always:

***LEG GRAB!:



THANK YOU grin!!! This move should have never been taken out to begin with! It was about time to see it back and in all its glory. Like the majority, I was very excited to see it again. Ah, the nostalgia. smile

***ENERGY RINGS:



They look better then ever! They did an excellent job visually improving this move, we can tell they really worked and paid attention to the details. It was a must considering this game is likely to feature many fireballs, so this type of unique energy attacks must look different and good!

I was expecting to see it back similar to her Mk1-Mk3 days....but I was pleasantly surprised to see the rings looking very very improved and awesome! I *love* the magical whirlwind like effects they gave them when appearing before charging and being thrown. That was an excellent touch!

The explosion/clash effect looks fantastic as well! I like the energy that’s formed after they collide, and this time, we have two very fast energy rings being thrown to the opponent. Wicked! Thanks MK team!

***VERTICAL BICYCLE KICKS:



Another nostalgic move that I cant wait to use in Kombat! It was fantastic to see it back and even looking slightly different. If you noticed, she kind of slides on the ground before rising to the air, it looks like a low attack. Awesome!

I cant wait to use the kicks!

***KISS OF DEATH:



This was an obvious special move that’s quickly become a classic for her. It was a fantastic novelty and implementation in MKDA, it was actually the move that kept me happy (regarding special moves of course) with her despite the lack of her trademarks.

This time the Kiss of Death looks kind of wider, perhaps bigger is the word, and she seems to retain a similar animation to the one seen in MKDA, which isn’t bad at all. Overall, an excellent move that looks awesome and will hopefully play as good as it did and better. Its a must-have for Sonya, she should never loose it.

What can I say?

Fans around must be very happy indeed. If she has 6 special moves like Ed confirmed a while ago, I wonder what her other 2 moves will be? I'm hoping for 2 new ones, with luck we might see her do some acrobatic attacks. smile

(Btw, noticed the cool hair bangs she has? I think they were inspired with the MKSM concept pics of her, looks great!).



THANK YOU ED AND MK TEAM!!!: grin










*****************************************************************OLD POST!:
FIRST Confirmed Female: Doesn’t she look Amazing!? Now...what about her fuc*i*g LEG GRAB!?

Finally, MK’s third Official Character has been revealed, and its none other then the Original Female of the series, the tough blond with the killer and sexy attitude.

Since Sonya is also the first female from both sides of the game to be confirmed, it would be nice to see her high resolution render to be released next, especially since we have only gotten DC content lately (very nice content I might add, just in case).

Now, as all who have seen her have already stated, Sonya Blade looks fantastic! A very nice job was done with her model and look, it looks very new, but still, very classic. A perfect mix.

It was an excellent idea to give her, yet again, another new look to add it to the list of Sonya’s large collection of clothes and wardrobe, and it looks like it was mainly inspired from her popular MK4 outfit.

Now that it seems that Sonya fans are finally being listened, do you guys think we’ll see her trademark Special moves back? THERES NO EXCUSE THIS TIME!.

It has been confirmed that all characters will have 6 Special Moves, and this is what Ed Boon answered to my question in the last Fight Night:

[23:27:06] queve asks, "Dear Ed Boon, why has SONYAS LEG GRAB and Johnny Cages NUT PUNCH trademark moves been missing since MKDA and will they ever return?" Other people have asked about Sindel's hair and Cyrax's net.

[23:28:46] There have been a number of moves that have been "removed" from the game. Sonya's leg grab was one of them. I'm sure you will see it again in the future. Her bicycle kick was another move that was removed at one point because it wasn't that usefull in MKDA. I wish Cage still had his splits punch....dont remember why we removed it.


So, what do you think? Will he keep his promise and give her the Special moves that made her so unique, deadly and fun to play as?

6 MUST have Special Moves

* Leg Grab (Mk1-Mk4)
* Kiss of Death (MkDA-MkA: already a classic trademark!)
* Energy Rings (Mk1-Mk3)
* Vertical Bicycle kicks (Mk3-Mk4)
* Cartwheel Kicks (Mk4)
* NEW ONE or Square Wave Punch (Mk1-Mk4, MkA)

She is also known for having:

* Air Leg Grab (Mk4)
* Special Forces Projectile fire ball (MkA, Spiral-like in MK4)
* Fly kick (MkDA-MkA)

I certainly hope she gets her special moves back (the LEG GRAB DAMMIT! ). She is one of the few characters in the game to present such a large asset of special moves, as well as one of the unlucky ones who had most of them removed for the last 2 games.

Sonya looks better then ever, lets also hope she plays as awesome as always, but this time, even better! grin

I'm very glad to see the original female and one of the main iconic characters of MK in this game.

I love you too buddy. smile

Dont worry about the IM! I understand, and yeah, I got all I needed! Thank you once again.

Back to Sonya, well, they certainly better give her the Leg Grab as a special move, and of course, since there seems to be no REAL finishers in this game, I hope we get to see her do some wicked deadly moves with her leg grab and hopefully kiss of death in a "new fashion". Not gory (sadly, sad), but hopefully deadly and painful.

It would rock.

If the move has no applicable purpose in the engine (like her Bicycle Kick) then there's no reason to even put it into the game in the first place. Having moves just for the sake of having moves is incredibly stupid in every way possible. Not even Armageddon's air combat propelled characters very high into the air, and the only applicable purpose for it in Midway's 3D engine would be as a wakeup counter. If it was the Shaolin Monks engine it could be implemented no problem because of the way the playing field is designed, but if they're going for an Armageddon approach (which they may be, unfortunately) her Bicycle Kick would be completely useless and only there for novelty value.

Also, that hat is called a beret.

Cool, thanks for the info (beret).

As for the special moves, please, lets not even joke about this game being like MKA.........(prays that its not like that)........enough with that system and engine! And the vertical kicks would work well if implemented, I dont see how they wouldnt fit the engine. ?

Because the Armageddon engine doesn't have an open air game. As I said, if they're going for that sort of feel to the engine in MKvsDC, they're going to have to do some major changes to the air game to just not make Sonya flip-flop all over the place the moment she attempts to do the move while standing. The move would work better as a wakeup only, but you write it in such a way that you want it exactly like MK3 where it was a standing button sequence. That just won't fly properly. Remember how fucked up Liu Kang's Bicycle Kick was in Deception?

Congratulations queve. Anyways it would have been insane of them to leave Sonya out.

Also I do hope that they include her signature moves especially the leg grab.

Is it a jacket or not?



Hmm her new outfit reminds me more of her MK4 + Jax(MKDA) stylegrin
I don't think that's a silver jacket... it's just the lighting on her white top/upper body. Also she's wearing dark green pants.

Aha! I see what you are saying. I was definitely thinking of a different engine (we are all tired of the mkda-mka style), but still, I believe there could be a way for it to be implemented (wake-up possibly, like you said) without being messed up, it is possible for them to play with possibilities, or at least I hope so. Not only because of a specific special move, but more because we all want something new, a different engine: completely!

Liu Kangs bicycle was *that* messed up? I honestly don’t remember much because that overall game was screwed (gameplay wise), but I do remember using Liu’s bicycle kicks effectively a lot of times and enjoying that special move, which is a definite trademark of his. I thought they did a great job with him.

I do agree with you that moves shouldn’t be there just to be there and mess up the engine, but I also think they should be worked properly for the characters if necessary, say in Liu’s case, the bicycle kicks are a must.

Thanks! grin And yes, you are 100% correct, not only would it had been insane not to have the mega babe of Mk in the game, it would had been stupid! But hey, not that we know she will be there kicking plenty of super heroes butt (along side some Mk butt as well), I do hope they include her Leg Grab. There just isn’t any more excuses for her not to have them! Did you read Boon’s reply above?

It’s a must!

You are correct, its probably just the lighting. It did cause some weird shadow in her so it looks like she is wearing something else above the top....unless she is totally being stripped naked by the Flash!!!!!

She could had been using a jacket, but thanks to the cloth-ripping, loosed it. I wonder hwo much “cloth tearing” will be allowed on the females, lol.

Oh, cool! They are dark green pants? They look black to me, but (checks pics again), if that’s the case, she looks even better!

MINION Wrote:

I'm wondering what possibilities there are for her alternate. With luck, MK will break the boring tradition of just 2 outfits and give each character more then just two. As seen in MKA 's "Kreate a Kharacter", it is possible to give them an extra outfit if they have so many options available.

Anyway, I would love to see some RED in Sonya, something along the lines of MK4 and her classic hat-cap. That looked hot (though this new outfit seems to be partially inspired on that one). But probably even better, maybe no hat like in Mk3, MkDA-MkA, but still with long hair (pony tail). Its sooooo good to see they decided to bring that one back! It looked awesome in mksm, awesome in the classics, excellent in this game.

LMAO! I know!!! While I don’t object at all, nor will you see me complaining, Im pretty much up there with everyone who is surprised by the size of those...things. I mean, they keep getting bigger and bigger with each game. It’s a wonder she can still stand up!

Wanderer, Sonya's Vertical Bicycle Kicks could be useful, since I play this game competitively online I'd know more than you anyway,

It could be used on a predictable jumping opponet, it can be used after a combo that involves a pop-up or bouncer, also it coulds be a non-breakable move which would make it even better to use on your opponet as a health finisher when they have breakers left.

I could see them replacing her grab in the game with the leg grab animation move, it'd fit Sonya perfectly and make her more unique and give it more of a MK-feel.

Exactly!

I think that if well implemented the move wouldn’t be a waste or work improperly with the engine. Here’s me hoping she gets the classic attacks that made her so deadly (even though without them she was still top tier). Oh, also, the article mentions something about mixing up special moves to do special combos, like, a combo based on your special attacks, so the vertical bicycle kicks could work just fine, couldnt they?

Can you just imagine how brutal and sexy her Leg Grab would look in this game? Its no doubt one of Mk's best special moves, I cant believe they took it out after Mk4!

Queve, once again thanks for the IM! Sonya returns with a ponytail, that made me more than just happy, since I love her MK4 look! She is also the most iconic MK woman if you ask me, so it's a right choice to implant her in MKvsDC.

well then, about the Leg Grab... Since they want to re-install MK with this game, they really should bring back all the trademarks to whichever MK character they're gonna release. The Leg Grab is most definitely a trademark that should return! I didn't know about mixing up special combo's or anything like that... but it sounds all right.

Image kicking your enemy up in the sky, following by the bycicle kick or anything in that direction.. sounds cool te me smile

Looks like MKA with a different costume so far. And Flash looks really bad..aheh. But of course, I'll have to wait for the hi res for a more suitable critique.

Y'know, I wonder why they keep trying to force the beret on her? It's not really "combat" apparel. Nor is the ball cap I suppose, I think I just like the ball cap better.

The gloves are tactical gloves. Indicative of some types of weapons handling.

Womens Military Apparel.

Should be noted that while Sonya is a fictional General in the United States Special Forces, there are no women in the special forces in real life. Women aren't permitted by law in most of the "combat" factions in the military. Just saying, don't expect to make the comparison to a "real" USSF unit female, cuz you won't find them. Alot of women are medics, mechanics, intel, "military police", or reserves. Among ALOT of other just as respectable titles. My Aunt was a soldier(not sure of her rank actually), while my cousin(male) was a mortarman(infantryman) for instance.

I'll wait for a better look at her though...

Sonya,with few diferences,looks the same from mk4.

I 100% agree. grin

I was very pleased to see her pony tail return as well, that also became a “signature look” for her, just as showing her midriff and wearing pants has become a trademark too. I wouldn’t mind seeing her in short pants though, Lara Croft style. Sexy, but not slutty.

Sonyas theme doesn’t have to be strictly based around “military” or “Special Forces” chick. She is also a deadly athlete!

Ahhh, yes, using her special moves to do some devastating combos would rock. She has a nice arsenal of deadly weapons at her disposal, hopefully Ed and the team remembers how much those rock!

I also found interesting the mixing up special moves for special combos, imo, that’s good news.

I hope the high res look good, but I have agreed with most of your posts so far, concerning the graphics and qualities of the pics...*sigh* I really hope for more detail (I’ve seen you comparison pics as well)! And when it comes to in game, I really hope to see facial expressions and reactions. It would be frustrating that with this new engine and graphics, we don’t see whats so obvious and what must be in.

Y'know, I wonder why they keep trying to force the beret on her? It's not really "combat" apparel. Nor is the ball cap I suppose, I think I just like the ball cap better.


I too prefer the Mk4 cap, but I love the beret and I think, since it’s a new costume, it suits her well.

That’s one sexy blond up there!

Anyway, I really like the design of her gloves, they look awesome. I wonder if she (or overall characters actually) will receive some form of weapons in this game. By the looks of it, that wont happen, and its probably for the best. I prefer them to focus on one style for the moment.

Should be noted that while Sonya is a fictional General in the United States Special Forces, there are no women in the special forces in real life. Women aren't permitted by law in most of the "combat" factions in the military.


Yeah, that’s another reason why this babe kicks serious butt!

Lets just hope they have heard you! With luck, we might see alternate renders of the characters. That wouldn’t be so hard, would it? It would be very nice to see higher resolution of their alt pics (hopefully more then one alt this time around).

Well Boon has promised lots of things but didn't fulfill most of them in the final products before, but we'll hope for the signature moves to return anyways.

Flash being able to remove Sonya's clothes? I'm sure he could but that won't happen in this lifetimesad.
If they had the clothing rip/armor breaks from soulcalibur iv, then this game would rock da house!!!

Yeah the pants color is kinda deceptive, it looked black in most of the 'pics' I've seen but there was one where it looked dark green like the one Jax wore in MKDA.

You cant really have the MK characters with totally new looks when they are supposed to be maintained recognizable and iconic for the eyes of the general public who aren’t Mk fans. That is extremely important for this game.

I mean, Sub-Zero looks practically the same he has always looked! They even went back and took away his new improved MKD design. Scorpion only had a change in his mask, and that wasn’t even that much.

Maybe for alternate costumes we’ll see something more new for all of them, but as for their primary costumes, we should all expect looks that scream “classic design!”. They are ment to remain iconic in their looks, maybe we can expect drastic changes for Mk9....

True. But hey! We might be in luck. The magazine did mention this (though the page article was cutted so I don’t have all the info):

“a perennial whipping girl whose best ability is to create circular pink force fields with her fists”

The Ring Toss will most probably be back! grin (they better, along side her Leg Grabs!)

I knew she reminded me of someone. She looks very good in that pic.

LOL. I LOVE her bizarre crossgendered too-many-face-lifts mutant whore look from MKDA. IMO, that is one of her best and my personal favorite. She looks particularly awesome in MKA (vs screen and all characters wallpaper render).

Sigh, Queve and his love for Sonya has gotten me excited to play as her!

I at first couldn't imagin Sonya going up against Superman or Wonder Woman because I don't know, she seemed too human to me. Pretty much I was expecting the DC characters to hand her ass to her (Like Flash did in the scans lol) but since boon said the MK characters will be elevated power I think these should be her special moves:

1.Leg grab
2.Energy rings
3.Bicycle kick

And the other three should be brand new since acording to boon the MK characters are more powerful. And save the kiss of death as some sort of finisher.
