Kung Lao. I love Kung and before MKDA was released I was really looking forward to playing with him and seeing his spin in 3d, well...the spin wasn't there along with a lot of other moves that were forgotten, omitted, or what ever from other character. that is my only problem with DA.

Sub-Zero, Scorpion, Rayden, Sonya and Kung Lao. I was disappointed with Reptile, call me a typical MK fan but I refer the ninja.

Disappointed: Kitana, what the hell happened to her? She was one of my best in the previous mk's.

Suprised: Jax, I never picked him, but he's pretty good in mkda, and kung loa, he was decent before but now he kicks ass

Johnny Cage sucked big time in MKDA. he looks like shit.

Kitana was shit aswell.

Jax was a very fun charater to use. he sucked in 3 and espeically 4 but not here.

Rayden looks old and has lost his I'm untouchable feel

Kitana is week and prancy like in MKDA

Just a few of the things that make you miss the
MKII days

kitana, jax, and sonya were a huge let down for me. same recycled stories and lame moves and loss of signature moves.
Scorpion impressed the hell outta me.

who impressed me the most was Sonya. I always hated her since MK1, and when I found out before MKDA's release that Sonya was going to be in it, I was very dissapointed. I've been playing MKDA since I got it on the release date, and I've probably chosen Sonya like 3 times at the most..

Well I've been wrong all this time, Sonya is one badass character if you know how to use her right. I really didn't like her default costume but her alternate fits her very well, it sort of gives her that "look i'm no longer a leautenant anymore, but now a genera" feel, which is good. Sonya is now one of my favorite characters in MKDA.



Who disapointed me was Quan Chi, one main reason as we all know is his fatality. He is a great fighter though, his fighting styles are great, but his fatality really gives him a low score.

Impressed- Sub-Zero
Disapointed- Reptile, Shang Tsung, Kitana

Impressed: Cyrax & Kano. Didn't like them much before, now they're two of me faves.

Disappointed: Raiden. I know its a minor niggle, but why no torpedo? :(

oops i read the thread wrong..nevermind...i guess every new character was great...i was only surprised by the new comers

Impressed: Kung Lao. I use him constantly. I also like Scorpion a lot too.

Dissapointed: Kitana. I liked her a lot better in MK 2.

I must say i was heavily impressed by sorpion, and kung Lao, i never was a big fan of his until mkda, now he is one of my favorite and best characters, but is stil not match for scorpion, who has and always will be my fav... i was disapointed to see they ended any chance of kabal coming back, it would be cool to see him but it looks like that is done, and reptile he just didnt do anything for me he looked like a iguana... he didnt look scary AT ALL, he was a big let down for me.

Use his alternate outfit :)

I always thought Sonya was great but in MKDA she kicks everyone's ass with Tae Kwon Do which is even better :)
And Scorpion definetly impressed me and Sub Zero and Kung Lao...well everyone exept maybe Kitana, I was a bit disappointed with her and Quan Chi. Quan Chi could've been a lot more badass than he is right now I think.

Impressed: kano he has finnaly got his pesona (identiy) correct!
Dissapointed: quan chi i just cant get passed the fact that he look like a guy wuth a long nose... and his moves i thought would be faster and more powerful.

Surprised:

Sonya: She has always been my fave since Mk1, she has been VERY powerful in all the past games, but in NONE more powerful then in MKDA! She is among the BEST fighters of the game, her styles and combos are fast and powerful, her moves are deadly and powerful, her weapons are one of the fastest and more powerful of the game, and her fatality kicks ass, keeping the “magic feeling” fatalities should have! Her new look, is the best ever! I love the mean sarcastic face. Sonya has definitely evolved a lot in power to become one of the most deadly characters of Mk.

Cage: He has always been fast and powerful, but in MKDA he just proves he is more then just a movie star! He was given powerful styles, good moves, a very COOL and bloody fatality, with a very powerful weapon. Cage is definitely a deadly character in MKDA.

Reptile: Besides his look, that IMO is the BEST ever for him (finally something new and not the whole boring ninja stuff), he has evolved to become a very powerful and fast character. In previous games he wasnt very powerful, but in MKDA hes just one of the best.

Sub-Zero: Another cool change (finally), getting him old was a good idea. Besides that, he is still a decent fighter.

Disappointed:

Kitana: Its not fair. Such a powerful, fast, deadly, great looking character in other Mk games and in MKDA they only gave us her sexy look, no more.

Cyrax: Weak.

Mokap: I KNOW he is not a character, but still he sucks, he sure has powerful styles, but has a very poor story.

Blaze: I don’t think his look is original at all.

Lets see...

Suprised:

Kung Lao: I love his default costume, I think its much more sensible than having his hat glued to his head. Also, he's got a nice storyline, and is likely to become the new 'hero' of the series. I've always liked him over Kang, its good to see he's finally got his chance to shine.

Shang Tsung: Very cool styles, and I've always liked this character so its good to see him back again. The 'deadly alliance' idea is very nice I think, it breaks that cycle of 'one powerful endboss'. Two villians are better than one.

Quan Chi: I don't get what everyone doesn't like about... sure his fatality is the worse but that's no reason for him to be called a dull character. His projectile is one of the best looking, and again his storyline is nice. Also, very cool weapon style, I'd like to see both members of the deadly alliance hang around.

Sub-Zero: Not bad, at least there was some movement in his storyline. The Scorpion & Sub-Zero angle was getting old, glad to see he's moved on. Training Lin Kuei warriors is a nice idea for him, also his involvement with Sareena was a nice idea, hopefully they will build on that.

Reptile: Finally... they make Reptile the way he should have looked. They worked their mistake into the storyling nicely though. He's fast and powerful on top of having a revamped look and storyline. What more could you want?

Kano: I never ws a fan of his until this MK, his storyline is helped out by the addition of Mavado and the Red Dragon. Now he can break this feud with Sonya that went on WAY too long.

Disappointed:

Kitana: Old storyline, overall weak character to use, and unimpressive look equal disappointment. She really hasn't changed very much since MK2, I'd say leave her out or try to find a more interesting approach for her in the future. She represents Edenia, so there are plenty of options.

Sonya: Sure, perhaps she was a powerful character, but the storyline between her and Kano is the longest running in MK now, and its past due for it to be over.

Jax: Same as above, and his purpose was pretty much done after MK2. Now, he just follows Sonya around, and its not very interesting. Also, it was quite annoying and offensive even how they stereotyped him in MKDA, I really didn't think that was neccesary at all. Either let Sonya be kidnapped or something, but these two characters are boring me at the moment.

Undecided:

Johnny Cage: I've always liked this character, he had cool moves, but his storyline was just bad. Again, he had some flashy moves in MKDA, but moves aren't everything. I want to see him back, but he needs a better storyline, let him be more involved with the actual cause of MK, stop letting it be about movies.

Raiden: Well, actually I liked him in MKDA, but I found it sort of dumb he reliquished his elder god status, when he could have just sent someone like Fujin down and let him lead Earth. I would have found his appearance in MK6 to be more appropriate, since the Dragon King will most likely be a bigger threat.

Scorpion: I know everyone loves him.. but its time for some development. He has no other purpose than revenge, for a few MKs it ws Sub-Zero, now its Quan Chi. Not really much of a change, revenge angles can getdull after years and years.

Cyrax: He was okay, nothing special. I liked his storyline.. but his moves need to be rethought.

yeah i liked subzero and scorpion i dont like the fat drunk guy or the new reptile

I was Disapointed with Shang Tsung just cuz he has no morphs... it just doesn't feel like him anymore.

I also agree with what someone said about Reptile and how he was better as a ninja.



I was impressed with Cage just cuz in prvious MKs with weapons he had a gun (which was stupid) but now he has nunchucks. His moves were also really hollywood which I thought was cool too.

Jax is da shit! always has been IMO. Sonya, scorpion, & rayden were all great in MKDA to me. Reptile isnt as bad as everyone says he is. i actually like using him. Kitana was just downright ridciulous. i would rather they not even put her on the game if there not going to put any work into her moves. .....She looked great though lol shang tsung was decent, put i feel chi took a step back from where he was in 4.

I loved everybody except Reptile. I love the old ninja suit days.

all of em are really good and i like the old ones, apart from jax, sonya and reptile
