Give us more content dammit. There's no excuse not to except "DC wouldn't let us", which is really your own fucking fault for going through with the idea.

You know, this is a an issue not a lot of people bring up. But it's the truth. If they really wanted to make a versus edition to Mortal Kombat, they didn't have to cancel a game that was more than half a year in production. Imagine what game we would of had instead if they had just given people what they wanted (initially, that is. It makes no difference what minds changed since then). They would of had more time to make MK8 brilliant, they would a fresh duration for the DC installment.

What happened? We got 12+ months of producing MKvsDC, and 8 months producing a game that won't even see the light of 2008.

I would not have reacted so harshly to MKvsDC if I had not been waiting in suspense for half a year thinking I was going to see the first screens of a pure Mortal Kombat game. Why not just put the project on hold and had it done right?

So basically, this thread is here to boost your ego by shooting down those who are displeased with the lack of costumes. You're accusing them of being misguided and "trivial", EVEN THOUGH most if not all of these people actually WANT strong gameplay just as much as you do, but don't actually see a reason to complain about the gameplay yet.

So you reckon you're more obsessed about MK than anyone else around here? Well if anything, the people who want solid gameplay, varied costumes, spectacular arenas, ie: want EVERY part of MK to be as great as it can be are bigger and more guided fans than you are.

May I politely ask, what’s the point of this thread besides trying to excuse the lack of creative artistic potential by assuming and supposing game play was the reason why alternates got sacked?

That's a dirty move mkf wink...dirty indeed.

How many times have we already heard (since the very beginning and past) that gameplay is always their main concern? Do you honestly buy that alternates out will make any difference?

I respect the fact that you care about gameplay above anything else, I care about it so I post “here” to make that clear, but I also know that there are other essential elements that make a game great in quality and beautiful in core, and believe it or not, even if alternates don’t even alter gameplay, they are fun and part of the game.

Your mission with this thread will fail badly, because all I see is an attempt to make people feel “content” and “not to care” about the lack of alternates and who knows what other artistic beauties of the game...using "gameplay" as an excuse.

You really have to learn to respect the fact that other people, plenty of more people actually, just don’t agree with you and see things from a different perspective, and that doesn’t mean they don’t care about gameplay ...it means they care about the entire game.

Just in case you get it wrong, I’ll say it again: Just because they don’t consider things trivial, like you do, doesn’t mean they don’t care about gameplay...that’s what you always imply, and that’s why you always get into arguments with everyone.

No alternates sucks mkf. They wont ruin the game, but you can clearly see how people are viewing it with that announcement...specially because of the reasons behind the statement of Ed...it was so typical.

I told you before, its like picking wheels over oil or oil over wheels to make your car work.

And as for your question, its great Ed said that, but not to put you down man, but that same question was asked in an MKast...and they said no.

And how many times has Ed said yes to many things that, in the end, never come to be real?

Like I said in the other thread:

"I agree gameplay is more important, but who are you guys trying to kid by saying that its because of the gameplay that they aren’t giving us the still important costumes?

Havent we been told the same thing about always focusing on the gameplay?

Seriously, alts aren’t being sacrificed for the sake of gameplay, even if they imply it.

And alts are important in their rightful way. "

The point is, people will care, they have the right to care and complain, and people caring doesnt make them not care about gameplay, and just because you think its trivial, it doesnt mean it is.

JUST SHARING MY OPINION MKF! smile I mean no rudeness or atatcks to you...but I think you should learn to word out your mind betterm because it feels like you constantly attack people for "caring about X thing you dont" about MK....and thats not fair from you, at all. Its like you imply that everyone but you is insane.

Thank God this game is looking fantastic and like the best "MK" yet. I cant wait to play it.

You should learn to live with the fact that people will care for this things Mkf, that this kind of things make people upset (very rightfully), and that whether you like it or not, they are important. You dont care, fine, but dont force the world to think like you, because whatever way you try it, it just wont work. Specially with this kind of stuff....gameplay is important, but its not because of gameplay we arent getting the alts. Im super happy with the amazing costumes they have given us, most are incredible (my fave has never looked better! grin) but no alts sucks, and badly. Period.

Who gives a damn if classic MK games didn't have alternates.
Stop using that lame ass excuse. While gameplay IS terribly
important, I just still see no reason why there aren't alternates.
What if the character were butt naked during the entire game,
sporting aroused nipples and boners? would it still be about
the gameplay then? Swapping colors on the classic MK was a
necessity because of genesis memory, this is the PS3. There
is no excuse for this lack of content that has played a factor in
in the last 3 MK titles, and just about every other fighter out.


I 100% agree with you, thats such a lame silly excuse. Are we still back in 1992 people?

And I soooo love you, sweet beautiful princess. And Im very happy for you! grin Kitana is in! I hope that made your day. wink


The point? lol it's no probl but I respectfully disagree with you a lot. That's easy pretty much to get it thru MK fans on what they SHOULD be concerned about MORE so then ones costume.

I know there are some obviously that want cool costumes but without a good game, who cares about what one looks like really? I mean I can understand it for the people who posted in here that "don't care about gameplay"

But that's not why I posted this thread, if you want to rant go rant to the rant thread about "why alterates are so important" no offense but there is a point to this thread and as you can see some of us actually happen to care about what's more important over something trivial as....umm an alternate costume. Just another fast side note, I understand some people on here/in this thread don't play online...that's fine but still that's irrelevant because online or off, you still want a good game to play gameplay wise right? Or perhaps I'm starting to think that some just don't understand how important gameplay is maybe? Granted, there's those fans out there that care greatly about costumes, story, mini games etc. Did I ever say they're not important? No, but I'm saying some of that stuff is trivial in comparison to gameplay. With no gameplay or good gameplay, what's the point in playing the game to begin with?

The older MK's having them for the people in here that have said, it's not an excuse it's a good valid point. Noticed not until MK4+ were people complaining or mentioning "cool an alternate" now that Midway happens to leave it out they receive hatred? Come on....if you're going to be bothered THAT much by that then you're not a true MK fan in my book.

There's more to the game "whole" then just something as trivial as an alternate costume and I'll argue that point forever against whoever feels different.wink Not to sound mean but like I said, this thread is made for the users who care MORE about gameplay then costumes. If you care more about costumes, please rid yourself of posting in this thread or I will come down hard on you with my views(without flaming of course)grin

Afterall, the topic is blatent and I don't want to hear bitching about costumes in this thread.

@Fed, wrong again...as usual. This has nothing to do with "my ego" it's to get a logical point across which obviously you missed. I respect ones views if you feel differently, but that's NOT again...why I made this thread. I made it because I want to see/hear the fans on here that happen to care about gameplay above everything else. And I no, you clearly missed my point initially. I love everything MK but I do have and know what's logical when it comes to trivial shit as oppose to more important stuff which fans like you lack in. And obviously you show how much knowledge you lack about me if you really think I "just care about gameplay" and nothing else pertaining to MK ha, ha, ha....all I'm going to say. Ask anyone on here who knows me, and much aren't even on this forum. Some are...but most of them are in the general. I care about everything overall, which I've said already quite a few times on here but it's like a car you go to buy ok. You like the LOOK of the car right? But what's more important, how it looks or how it drives? What's the use of the car if it looks HOT but drives like shit? This thread can be closed since some people in here misunderstand the purpose........sad
