Will they have them? I've been thinking about this for a while and...My concern is this...

Say I make a monk and give him Tae Kwan Do, Hapkido, and staff as styles...well these styles were not put together before so will I get Branch combo ability?

The way I see it for the Monks to have Branch combo ability, the MK team would have had to think and test EVERY POSSIBLE Style combination, and make branch combos for each, Now...just taking the 24 at the select screen, just as a number, you do the math...this would entail an insane amount of work...which worries me...perhaps Monks won't have Branch Combo ability? sad I hope his isn't the case and they have done the work to implement them, but really what are the odds?

I see that you finally posted this grin, it's an excelent question. My only possible solution for this is that maybe there are Linkers programmed to fit every style and/or banch combos, that's the only solution i can see. I mean i know it's a hell of a work but it's less if you porgramm linkers between everysingl style.SuCh Is LiFe

Your right about that man. And I know that the MK Team are doing some style based investigations so I think we wil see these branch combos though the different style combinations. Maybe not all, but I think they'll be in.

I hope so, cause It would suck if your created character could not perferm branches, it would place him at an extreme disadvantage as far as the mainstream fighters are concerned.

Cool, now I'm not so worried anymore. I'm glad about that.

Personally, I think people are expecting just way too much from the whole Konquest monk thing. I highly doubt it's going to anywhere near as customizable as people would like.

I'm not talking about looks, I know that the Monk can't be changed the much, but as far as fighting stlyes goes, I don't see why they can't have branch combos...

Yeah, what I said ties into that. I doubt the developement team put enough effort into the Konquest system to have that possible. Although to be fair, I don't exactly know how viable the problem actually is, but it seems okay to assume that being able to customize all three fighting styles means that monks won't have branch combos. Do Blaze and Mokap? I don't remember. But even if they do, that's only two characters with a set three styles, albeit picked from other characters in the game. I guess we'll have to wait and see!

Yeah, I see what your saying. The likeyhood of Branch combos for monks, right at this moment, doesn't seem to high. I hope that's not the case. Yes Mokap and Blaze had branches, but like you said it was only two chracters....with set styles.
