Liu Kang was confirmed last week, folks.

Oh goodness! Kevin Pereira is so orgasmic! only reason I tune in to G4TV. Besides X-Play.

Have you guys seen Scorp pull off his Free Fall Kombat special? Shit looked so cash. =)
Also,I really have to compliment the guys who are playing/who have choreographed this fight. I mean,they are going all out to show off all of the intricacies of the engine. I'm seeing some crossover launchers,FFK,FFK specials,custom combos,throw reversals/breaks,Klose Kombat counters...

EDIT: Oh wow,Scorp just pulled off an air teleport!

EDIT2: I'm also seeing some minor graphical glitches,but they'll no doubt be able to fix them before the release.

Did you notice how Scorpions battle wounds are more violent, his ribs and bones are exposed.. fucking badass :D

I see two glitches:

3:04: Scorpions spear gets caught on something above him when he gets hit.

3:16: look carefully... Flash gets teleported to the ground almost. I remember this in MKA, on Shang Tsungs boat level... it could cause some major glitches.

Now... I realize that this game is still in production, and these glitches will probably be fixed.... just letting everyone know.

Thanks

lol, they're not gonna get fixed, this is the MK crew we're talking about

Umm...early build man=game not finished yet but for what they have, it looks great considering. Like you said the game isn't finished.

As for the thread title, Scorp looks good as he always usually is but not sure about "godly" for one we don't know the whole roster...yet so that can alter tiers in the game and IMO Supes looks top tier, I mean his eye lasers come out fast both in air at that angel and on the ground, has a ground pound(unblockable but can be avoided by jumping), freeze breath, sucky breath, grab and punch, charge move, can fly etc lol

I'd honestly say Supes, Flash look very good in this game. Insanely good, Scorp and Sub also look good enough to hold their own.

Scorp's new self blaze move=awesome

Scorpion IS Godly....another thing I noticed in another random video is that upon torching someone with the self blaze move (and possible summon hellfire), he can follow up with the spear.

And here is that video....watch at 7:50.

Doesn't look to be the same with hellfire though from what I saw. But its DEFINITE with Self Blaze.

He's not Godly, he's very good but he's really not that all super high. Besides, like I said dude this is an early build. We don't know exactly where he'll place in the tiers within the game plus like I said. Superman is higher and more godly if anything.

He's like he is in MK4+MK2 off AA jabs, except now he can create a juggle. Besides, without some juggle combo into spear, he wouldn't be as effective and the spear would only be good from long range. Yeah, he has a self blazing move plus normal hell fire but to do one after the other that's the "pro moves" that take skill to do, it won't be easy to do that for the average player.

The spear following up on the self blaze move I assure you isn't a pro move.

Pro moves are just identical secondary or similar attacks following the initial move. (ie..Sony shooting 2 energy rings instead of 1)

The Spear and Self Blaze are 2 different special moves and one automatically leaves the victim open for the other....and then you follow through with a combo after that.

Scorpion's air teleport is also an advantage....but yeah, we will see.

I think it is based off what Boon explained because notice with the normal spear it just brings you to Scorpion(as every other MK game) but that move I'm pretty certain was a pro move two moves one buffered immediately right after the other, notice he pulled him near him but onto the ground then Scorpion immediately did a hell fire. That didn't look that easy honestly and speaking as how I play these games online, competitively I'm almost 100% sure that was a pro move combination just like Sonya vs. Batman where she kick juggles him, juggles him then buffers/pro move the double ring shot...same thing dude.

Yeah, you're right a pro move is two moves instead of one but you have to time it correctly otherwise you'll only get one move, and it will take skill to mix those up with insane juggle combos. Timing and practice.

Scorpion's teleport isn't really that big of a deal, he had his air teleport in MK2, UMK3, MK4 and they gave Chameleon his MKD in the air. Not a big edge really. And it's not like it comes out nearly as far as it did in UMK3 or MK4.

Scorpion's air teleport actually was an advantage in the games you listed. If you knew how to play mind games, it worked great. Also, Scorpion's MKD teleport was not an air teleport. He could only do it on the ground and even though he was a little bit off the ground when he came back around with the kick, its still not considered an air teleport.

Not to mention that this teleport is a 2 hitter this time. If you noticed, the beginning of it has Scorpion punching his opponent when they're close to him followed by the uppercut he comes back around with. Pretty sure it works the same way in the air with the 2 hits.

The Spear following the self blaze was done by a couple of people playing the game for the first time. IF it was a pro move which I again assure you it's not, it obviously isn't that hard at all.

A teleport is always a good "get away move" and an advantage only against a horrible non-teleporter, otherwise it's not that bad. I'm also speaking from years of experience playing these games competitively online.

I know, MKD Scorp was only on the ground yet in MKA they decided to make it in the air for Chameleon for whatever reason. I never said Scorpion's MKD teleport was in the air, I said he could do it in the air in MK2, UMK4, MK4 and that Chameleon's was Scorpion's MKD teleport that happened to be done in the air. So I'm not sure what you read, but you misread what I said.

We don't know for sure since neither of us were there but if it's a dual special move then it's a pro move, either way it doesn't make Scorpion "godly" like you're going on about. I play all of these games at high level, Scorpion is always good but rarely "godly"

He's a top tier in MK:DA and MK:A but he's not "god tier" there's a difference.

I don't really recall being able to jump in the air with Chameleon and then teleporting. I remember it being exactly the same as Scorpion's in MKD.

Try it man, you can do it in the air MKA.

Go to practice if you're having trouble, you can do it in the air dude

Just jump in the air and do his teleport kick, he'll do it in mid air. I do it all the time when I play him. His teleport is the same as Scorp's MKD, but they allowed it to be done in mid air as well as on the ground.

also, sub zero's self freeze followed by a downward kori blade attack

Ok you're right about Chameleon's version of the teleport though I still think it isn't as effective as this one will be.

As far as Sub-Zero's self freeze move...while it is cool, Scorpion can follow up his self blaze move with a lot more punishment since he can spear the victim afterwards.

Sub-Zero does an automatic Kori Blade move after his.

Also to add to why I think Scorpion is godly...the leg takedown manuever comes out very quick and obviously has to be blocked low. In the G4 Video....you can see that it ALSO can be done on grounded oponents and that I believe is a big advantage. Also in another video I saw, he had a pretty quick leg sweep move. So he's looking to have a great high/low game.

Which is why I'm hoping for a Pro version of the Ice Clone. The one that allows you to cancel the teleport followup altogether and just wail on the opponent in any way you see fit.
It'd be like an FRC.

Goddamn,I'm getting pumped just thinking about it.

Keep this on the downlow guys, but I heard a rumor that Liu Kang is confirmed!

SO
Liu kang, catwoman, Captin Marvel and shang Tsung
are the 4 interesting characters that will be shown at
Mortal Kombat Online Live Coverage of San Diego Comic-Con

I thought they are going to state other than these characters such as the joker, kano, kitana, raydan or reptile, wonder woman

That was the old 2D sweep 'back+LK', everyone's gonna have it not just scorpion.
