The character limit of 24 has been broken; We now know of that there will be atleast 30 characters in Mortal Kombat Deception. But at what point can they really stop? And should they?


There has been much talk about how easy it would be for them to stick characters from Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance in the game, just to enhance the gameplay+ Replayability of MKD.

If you stick the 23 characters from Deadly Alliance in the game, plus Liu Kang, Ermac, Noob Saibot, Baraka, Mileena, Smoke, Sindel, Nightwolf, Tanya, Sektor, Kabal, you get 34 returning characters. That coming from a grand total of 51 pre-MK Deception characters. Why stop there?


So what are your thoughts on this? Personally, I think it would be cheap if they just dumped storylineless characters into the game, although i wouldn't be completely against it. Then again, it's not like that many of the stories are hard to do.

Personally, I'm torn. I know they can't manage to make a 45 character, balanced game with a great plot, but I'd love to see them do it. There are too many characters I like that right now have yet to be confirmed.

So how many characters do you want?

I think the game has plenty characthers. Everyone seems to forget there are limits to what they can do. You can only fit so much onto the disk. And only so much can be done before release date. Unless you want a multi-disked, and rather crappily done game somethings must be scarificed. People need to learn to prioritize and figure out what they want most. tongue

I believe there should be every character from the previous games. Why? Different people like different characters. If they leave out people they might miss some characters lots of people like, for example: Rain or Ermac, etc. I think they should put 24 characters already selectable and then 24 unlockable players, or something like that.

When I play Mortal Kombat, I really do not care about the plot. I am here to play the game and do fatalities (which I can hardly even do anyways), not to listen to some story about realms. So putting extra characters wouldn't really effect anything. There should also be many new characters also. Having the same old characters each time can get tiring.

So I want a couple new characters, and ATLEAST 90% of the old games characters (Most of the 10% is new characters from MK:DA) to come back. I want to choose the people who I kick ass with (such as Rain and Ermac) but yet be able to discover new characters.

i think there should be like 35 characters.... like 15 classic 8 new and the rest from deadly alliance not as much as trilogy that was just a big brawl of fighters frum all over. but i dont think it matters if theres a plot some people make it sound wayy to in depth
---thats all i hav to say

i could settle for thirty characters. i would like each character in deception to have their own unique aspects about them. thirty is an even number and it would be nice to have fifteen good people fight against fifteen evil people.

20 new characters can be interesting. A few can be from Earthrealm, a few demonds and some that are loyal to the DK.

I think 24 character with a few hidden (total no more than 30) is enough. I reckon theyve got it right with the number of characters, but I dont like the line up so far on the whole. But the number of characters is good.

Hmmm at least 50. Like come on! Who wants QUALITY when they can have all the characters exactly the same? Thats what you got to do, all good fighting games have tonnes of generic fighters that everyon hates. Remember all those Ninjas in MKT? Yeah!!! I WANT IT LIKE THAT!

/end sarcasm


Seriously 23-28, I don't want tonnes of carbon copys, it would just suck! Quality over Quantity.

I say screw some of the DA people
I want atleast 30-35 which we'll get atleast 30. So theres a range of 10 secret characters that would be perfect. Hell 5 secret characters would be fine. But I don;t want people from DA maybe a few like Quan CHi and a few others but more clasic characters like rain sektor Cyrax maybe Idk it'll be interesting once the games released.
