TTT already made a gameplay FAQ, and the "why do people think MKA will suck" thread is opening up the eyes of a few blind fans. Let's talk about online. What modes and improvements would you like?
~ Modes~
1. Random Fight - Instantly puts you against someone.
2. Team Battle - a 8 person 4 on 4, 6 person 3 on 3 or 4 person 2 on 2 battle. A person represents one character on the team. Team with last person standing wins. After each loss the next teammate in line follows up. This can be played 1 on 1 as well. Sort of like a remake of endurance.
3. Gore Mode - Before the fight starts a set amount of blood is sent. Every attack causes a certain amount of blood. The player who causes their opponent to bleed the amount required first wins. This can be played with Team Battle as well.
4. Tag Battle - http://www.mortalkombatonline.com/content/forum/showmessage.cds?id=65431
5. Juggle Battle - Each player gets 3 chances to juggle a test dummy. The person who has the most combined hits wins.
6. MK Trivia - 8 player compatible. 5-20 questions are asked. A player must buzz in and answer(multiple choice). Questions will be about MK's storyline from MK1-MKA.
7. The Tower Of Time - In this place you can compete in MK1-MK4 against the world online. Must be unlocked through Krypt first.
8. Created Characters Lobby - A mode where you can pit your CACs vs other people's CACs. Non CAC characters can also be used.
~Improvements~
1. Cheated Punished - Those who cheat with devices such as gameshark and action replay should be banned from online completely. There should be some kind of system developed so that the server detects cheaters.
2. More In Depth Profiles - I don't just want to know about someone's wins,losses and disconnects. I want to know who that person uses the most, the average rank of the people he normally fights and all other kinds of details. Clan affiliation would be cool too.
3. More in depth leader boards - I believe there should be a ranking system for characters as well. I want to know who has the most wins with Sheeva and who's the guy to beat with Kano etc. Whoever has the most wins should not matter as much as the rank of the people they beat with those characters. For example, someone who plays Sonya and has 5,000 wins against trashy players should not be as high on rank as someone who has 400 wins against the best players the game has to offer.
4. Spectator Mode - Please allow people to view fights. I would love this feature. Of course the option to make games private and unviewable should be included too.

Those are some badass ideas bro. You know what that means, right? Yup. They'll never happen.wink
Seriously, it would be cool to at least have more in-depth statistics like the ones you suggested.

Good ideas i love them especially playing mk1 -4 that would be so cool.
Gore match isnt that basically the same as normal kombat where handicap can be used.
mk trivia sounds a bit crap
as for gameshark noobs they punish themselves everytime they use it.As no-one respects them they are insulted and any rank they earn is never recognised by the players.

Great ideas, Vers. They need worldwide connectivity this time around and it should be even more fun. Spectator mode is the one thing I definitely want and the punishment for the cheaters too.

Yes they must have both of them. Watching two really good players can be just as much fun as playing it yourself. And you might pickup a few things as well.

Random fight mode and spectator mode are a must. If those two were in it I'd be happy. I like the ideas of character specific data too. Random fight mode would be the best way for rankings imo.

Thanks guys. World wide play would also be VERY cool. MKD for PAL and NTSC were the same so why not for MKA allow us to play Europe. I wanna see what that Jade and Raiden are made out of T-Grant :).
MC(euro division)...tight.

Here's my online gameplay mode idea
Players could set up their own tournamemnts. Basicly a person starts it is the "sorcerer, and the people who join his tournament are the "fighters". The "Sorcerer" controls who fights who, what arena they fight in, and any special conditions he wants to put in effect. The last "fighter" alive fights the "sorcerer". The sorcerer is like the boss, and can get special bonus's such as 25% more health. If the "fighter" wins, he is the champoin of that tournament. I hope i've explained this clearly

Last and original poster, some great ideas.
I'd be happy if you could set up Random select only games as well.
Make opponents learn/use more than 1 or 2 characters!

I agree with your analysis of 3. But why shouldn't cheaters be punished. They dont play fairly, and are one reason why some good players have avoided online fighting. Cheaters ruin the online experience for everyone else.

I hope they just beef up the fighting engine and add a wake up game, cause it is annoying as all get out when you try to fight online and they use those stupid infinates, then combine the infinates with the cheat device and well you might as well take your chances of getting out of a 12x12 foot pit filled with poisiness snakes.

I stopped playing Smackdown vs Raw 2006 two days after I purchased it. This was because eight of the ten people I battled used hacked character.
Cheaters should definitely be punished, especially multiple offenders. They detract people who want to know what playing online is like.
