It makes me skeptical. If we can break mask, will any blows to the face, after that. Take away added damage due to no face protection.

After seeing these crappy renders, we will jump at information like this

I really doubt Boon would do something to make the game that unbalanced.

yeah, good idea, but it would end up making everything confusing

I doubt it man, I'm pretty certain or at least I'd be willing to bet that it's eye candy man. I can't see how a punch to face with a mask on or without it will increase or decrease damage.

In an adventure game, I can see something like that with armor and stuff but not in a fighting game. Just my opinion

ripped clothing,bruised faces....this was supposed to be since the times of MK:DA..whatever.

Yep, happy to see they're finally going to implement all of that now. They did have bruised faces in the past few games though, but nothing else with clothes, scars etc.

For the person who said this makes up for fatalities, NO it doesn't.

Yeah.

For one, this was supposed to be in the game since MKDA, and this engine is capable of soooooo much more (like said above, they really better use all its potential!).

With that being said, this looks awesome and Im happy they finally brought it to reality!

I hope final "fatalities" rock!

If you want to post sarcastic replies, I can't stop you (although there was a day when that wasn't true). I was mostly correcting IceBaby's post concerning your comment.

But if it isn't too much trouble, not being an asshole is really beneficial to the community. You know, for those individuals who have actually been here a while and care about it.

Honestly, I thought people were over the whole "fatality bit" but apparently not.....I do wish some people would just deal with it already...I mean it's not the WHOLE game lol.

The realistic tears, scars, busted up masks, realistic bruising IMO kind of makes up for the "toned down fatalities" and again...Boon said in one of the recent interviews "We never said we're getting rid of fatalities, there will still be finishing moves" it's just nothing over the top or gorey due to DC's involvment...

But hey, I like this newer feature with ripped cloths, busted up masks and improved bruising on the face etc. I think it'll rock personally.

No one will get over it, but I will admit I am over it. Just because there's no finishers doesn't mean that it's not MK anymore. But, reading what everyone has to say, the people who are TOO INTACT with this game are the ones who will never let it go, who will never appretiate the crossover game until they are satisfied with the fact that their precious fatalities will be somewhat featured in the game. But, because there are none, they will not like this game, go on and being too immature about something that doesn't mean a thing to me and others who are acting more mature enough to be strong and confident and WILL buy the game. That's just silly to get so bent out of shape for.

Dude... is this true?? The bottom half of Scorpion's face is skull? That simply rocks! I haven't seen the scans but I'm fine now I know this. Really excited about it!

Yep, looks bitching!

Frankly, I don't give a damn if people think I'm an asshole over the internet.

It's not like I'm gonna run into them in my life time.

I don't see what was wrong with a sarcastic comment i made, it's not like i'm flaming. If you have a problem with me, PM me and don't change the topic of this conversation.

Well Superman doesn't have a mask... Does this mean we can break his face? But yeah. This is gonna be really cool. It'll definetly make the fight seem more realistic.

Its not like its a big deal. Im sorry for overreacting. Everyone just let it go.

Good point about the non-masked characters, but his face will definitely get messed up lol. Should be fun to see
