of course it'll be fixed

Doesn't hurt to bring it up. I was kind of worrying about it too. Theres no reason for any character to be sharing stances.

Next stop: the homogenyville horror.
The bitsy mini-modes have been surprisingly successful at distracting from what looks like a full force return - moreso than Deception - to complete irrelevance in the fighting mode.

I'd love to see some assemblance of tailoring to each character, but with playable builds already floating around, that might have passed.

It's a shame noone's particularly fussed about the story, because as far as I can tell, the fighting engine's already sailed. Arbitrary cut scenes, button mashers, and six stack special moves, a good fighter, does not make.

Well to hear Boon talk.. the story is nothing short of amazing. Then again, it is Boon. So his definition of such is likely different from other people's. I guess we'll see. The game thus far does look very fun to play at least, and that's a plus. Hard to really judge though until we get a more complete build of the game. Could be very different by the time it's actually released.


Which brings me back to the fighting stances... with only 20 fighters (22 of they hide two, which is a big possibility.) It shouldn't be very hard to give everyone their own unique stance. I'm confident that they'll fix it. I say let Batman keep the current shared stance and change the others.

I've been particularly concerned with this issue as well. All of the fighting stances look very generic, and some even "wrestler"-ish. Catwoman's fighting stance is awful and the others aren't much better. I'm hoping that they're doing it this way simply to show the game, and when they go to polish it up the stances will be changed and unique to each character across the board.

I agree. The only one of the stances I really like so far is Shang's. I think it's good for him. The others could have been a bit better.

Jesus Christ.... did we not learn our fucking lessons back in 2001 when we saw MKDA videos and all the characters kept getting different weapons and stances each time a new video was released?

OBVIOUSLY IT'S NOT THE FINAL VERSION. God damn. I don't understand how you people can even be concerned with shit that's obviously not fishined being worked on. Demo. Say it. DEMO.

Well, that's quite reassuring!
Nice work, chief!

Shang Tsungs pose at the vs screen is that of his MK3 Fighting stance. Hope he gets that in game.

Wow... someone needs to switch to decaf. Calm down man, wouldn't want a vein to burst or anything.

I said I am confident it'll be fixed in my second post. So relax.

Besides the Title of the thread is: Character Fighting Stances
MINION: Yeah, that stance would fit Shang great... However, I do like the one they've given him in this game already. So I hope he keeps that one.
