28?30?


well, we've busted the 24 number; the following characters have all been confirmed to be returning by some source or another:

01.Liu Kang
02.Raiden
03.Scorpion
04.Sub-Zero
05.Jax
06.Mileena
07.Baraka
08.Smoke
09.Noob Saibot
10.Sindel
11.Sektor
12.Nightwolf
13.Kabal
14.Ermac
15.Tanya
16.Bo Rai Cho
17.Li Mei
18.Kenshi

add the 8 new characters, and the rumors of Shang Tsung and Quan Chi, and you get a wopping 28 characters.

From what I've heard, Boon has said that many characters from Deadly alliance will come back as secret characters.

So my question is , when it's all said and done, how many characters (including secret characters) do you predict?

I predict less than 40, but more than 30 playable characters. I'll go with 35.

35 sounds reasonable. I won't complain if they are more. I hope kitana comes back if they are bringing in some DA characters.She was a little weak but she was hot damnit! lol

Yeah, 24 is pretty much a dead number. I don't even think the MKD team knows how many characters are ultimately going to be in the final released version.

I think they realized that same previously dead/defeated characters were needed for the plot to advance, yet at the same time, they wanted to keep Noob Saibot, Smoke etc in the game. They decided the only way to do that was to add more characters.

Didn't boon comment on tossing up whether or not they were going to make all new characters, or just bring back old ones?

That would sort of mess up a count, even though i agree it's over 24

You should get dragon points for being so smart!

Everyone, listen up. this guy is right on the spot! More than 24 is absolutely correct!! If I were a mod, I'd already given you Dragon points!

I doubt sincerely that they will do either of those. MK Deception will have a well put together cast imo, with probably a 2 or 3 to 1 ratio of returning to new.

It has yet to be officially confirmed that those two characters are going to be in the presense of MK: D. For now is just rumor.

Smoke was confirmed in an interview over a month ago by one of the MK Team members. Sektor has been "confirmed" by the Spanish Gamepro.

Sektor? Well, we'll leave that to sources. But Smoke was confirmed in Game Informer, bro.

Smoke is defiently in, I'd say. Sektor I'm still hesitant on believeing. I agree that that he does resemble a spot on the Select screen, but I dont know, I just have one of those feelings like he isnt going to be in the game. I could cope with it though. I like him, but I wouldnt bitch if he wasnt in. MK247

Hey dude, you seem like you know a lot. Before I ask this question, though, I want you to know that I'm not expecting a real answer, I'd just like your opinion on this cause you seem to know your stuff.

Personally, how many characters do you think will be in MKD?

Well, I only know what Konqrr and Queve tell me, but in terms of exlusive original characters to MKD, both new and classical, I guess there'll be 37-40. But in all honest truth, I have no idea.

I agree. I see them adding some more fan favorites to the original 24 character lineup (Johnny Cage, Kano, Sonya, Reptile, Shang Tsung, Quan Chi, Kitana, Kung Lao). I also wouldn't be surprised to see either of the oni returning.

Keep in Mind tho from 24 - 36, thats 12 more characters which would mean...

24 fatalities
12 Hari Karis
12 Mini animations for Puzzle
24 different outfits (assuming characters have 3 each)

Thats a lot of work to do for the midway team. I would rather they have like 25 and make Konquest mode REALLY cool because i heard it was kinda lacking things at E-3 (i know its not done yet, BETA stages)

I predict no more than 28 or 29 characters at the most. Don't get your hopes up, people. I'd like 40 as much as the next guy, but doesn't that seem kind of...outlandish to you?

I'll hope for 28-29, liking to think I'm being realistic. If we get more than that, then all the better. I'll be pleasantly surprised. smile

30-40 is just waaaaaaay to much.. or if you get 40 they'll all be "mediocre".. I'd rather have 24-29 extremely well balanced fighters than 40 stupid reused MKDA models with no adition to the game...
