Why didn't you post this in that thread?

Mortal Kombat wasn't the first game to introduce three fighting styles/stances, you have been able to change to different stances since all the way back in Tekken 3.

The only reason they stand out in MK is because they've labelled the stances with names at the bottom of the screen and boasted about them to make people believe that no-one has done them before

Yes, it would be better as a fighting game in total. And with the extras MK is built-on, it could very well be one of the greatest fighting games of time. However, the chances of our voices getting out are slim to none, but we all do appreciate people who make topics like this, because we know there is still a chance. An improved wall system, a manual combo system, a breaker system, and so on. The fans are what make the game, as Boon has showed, but if all fans want are fluff, then MK is going nowhere.

Anyone who says DA's fighting engine was good has never played games like Tekken or Virtua Fighter. It was sub-par, and nowhere near close to the sharpness and fluidity of those types of games. We want a game that's competitive, complete with the MK feel. Blood. Specials. Fatalities. It would make the game more enjoyable for all fans, but many of these kids just want the gore.

MK has so much potential, but none of it is going to good use. Puzzles and chess do not make a fighting game. The core fighting gameplay makes a fighting game. Mortal Kombat is a fighting game. An over the top fighting game? Hell no. But with enough effort from fans wanting it will be there.

The VF4:E vs. MK:D topic has gotten filled with fanboys slamming Tekken, VF, Soul Calibur, etc. That shows ignorance. MK isn't a bad game, it just has sub-par fighting gameplay. If people would take the time to read the messages we all post, they would actually like our ideas.

HAHAHA!

I'm just hoping for a delay and more gameplay vids showing the improvements he put in. As of now, I have seen NONE.

Well that thread seem over crowed But anyway the gameplay of DA was slow compare to VF4 and Tekken. I wish more fans of MK would complain about the fighting engine instead of why is there only one way to finish a guy or their need to be more extra stuff in the game.

yep give lei wulong and hwoarang a try.

hwoarang does 2 versions of taek won do and Lei does all the animal styles.

I can't stand it when people just come along and flame various fighters without anything to back their opinions up other then they don't like constructive critisism, then there's when people go on talking about all the other stuff in Deception (storyline fatalities etc.) that specific thread is talking about the gameplay that could be introduced with a MK-theme, not other aspects of a game.

That thread is a DAMN good read. I think it should be put on the TOP of the board and BOLDED.

If the cats on this site have any fears about the gameplay (they should) then that thread needs to be seen by all members.

I second that, and if it isn't stickied at the top then it'll just have to have more suggestions sent in so that people can still see it. It's diffinately the most popular thread at the moment.

The changing stances in Tekken does next to nothing so don't even compare that to the 3 stances in MK because they don't compare Tekken they barely have different moves when you change stances mabye a different throw or two that about it long story short Tekken suck MK rocks

Just the fact that they flame the best games of the fighting game category annoys me, but to add to that they either don't say anything to back them up and say something that's just wrong.

A few different throws? there's not a single move you can do in one stance that you can in another, whereas MK's are the same, the only different being the animation of the characters, just go through konquest mode, and see how many times the pop-up speech is repeated for so-called different moves.

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not "MK hating" as some people put it, I'm just correcting someone, the after playing VF:4 thread is a way of voicing new ideas that you would like to see in the MK series, the only the time this so-called MK hating happens is when random people say Tekken, Soul Calibur and virtua Fighter suck, and they have to be convinced otherwise, for the sake of the thread not being overrun with more people saying random game hating stuff.

Considering that most of the stances in MKDA were shit and useless I'd say you're wrong.

When you change in tekken you have differeent yet usefull options. That is not the case in MKDA.

I created a thread exactly like this and you stold it dawm.

Not to be rude because no one cares because just like him you both stole it from " I JUST GOT DONE PLAYING VF4EVOLUTION AND MKD LOOKS LIKE CRAP" or w/e it is.

So who cares who made the thread all it matters is were all trying to get better game play. What I hate the most is seeing people say the games gonna suck becuz they know midway didn;t change a thing I'll believe it once I play it there keepin this game on the low so u never no wat it has in it. We might be suprised or disappointed Im going with suprised o well.
