If you like it the way it is at THIS MOMENT then you are nothing but a fanboy. MK:D needs an overall of the fighting engine, and better fighting mechanics. Look through the stuff in my sig, cartmansp's Gameplay thread, and the VF4:E vs. MK:D topic and you'll see it needs A LOT of work.
One player versus mode.

Click on my sig.

I think MKD looks KOOL!!!


However I think is only missing one little tiny thing, Nitara, but this is just me though! b/c I am a Nitara Fan... I think for me it would make it perfect if Nitara was a playable character, that would make MKD PERFECTO for me!!!

Don't worry toxic I told you Nitara will be playable
since Reptile is chasing her and maybe cyrax will want revenge.

Thanx scorpion...

I hope she is back I just can't wait to see those sexy wings! JK! LOL

I think the features it has now are good the way it is, but thats only the features part, but I wouldnt want the current MKD, they need to tweak it up to be a little nicer, graphics touch up here, and a glitch to remove there, that kind of thing.

a double tap run and some characters to do high jump flips. Just add those and you're set. A wall jump maybe nice too.

Learn the concept of the word opinion my good man. He's not a fanboy just cause he thinks MKD is fine, he just enjoys it and realizes probably that MK was never one of the deeper fighters ever.

MK3/UMK3 was beat by the SFAlpha series and you know why? The same problem it has now.......the engine. But that didn't stop people from enjoying it and thinking it's fine the way it is. It also didnh't stop it from living just as long as any other fighters.

The modes are good, the fighting will be OK, but it can be a lot better.

IMO.

There is a pretty long list of basic additions that I think should be implemented to make the fighting good.

Then there is another long list of more complicated and fancy additions that would make the fighting great.

Of course, like the saying goes "Easier said than done". It takes time to do something like that.

I think the fighting engine will eventually become great as new games are made and the fight engine evolves. The same as the other games.

That's what I'm hoping for anyway.

So MKD will not be quite at the level of quality I would expect from a fighting game as far as the fighting goes, but it will still be a fun game that I will enjoy playing.

it needs everything mentioned above... and it i'd like to see a survival, team mode, one player versus, endurance modes as well.

Everything is fine the way it is, except for 2 things. Hopefully they will change scorpions fatality and have quanchi and some other returning characters in it and it will be perfect.

i think its all going great, but the yeah the fighting engine does need abit of an overhaul. But lets not forget that what we saw at E3 was only 20% done and there is still time for improvements and who knows what could have been added since E3 as midway has been tight lipped about the gameplay mechnics since then. Also most people seem to be moaning about the engine based apon deadily alliance, not deceptions just because they both use the same engine doesnot mean that they are going to be the same and did anybody think that maybe midway showed a less complete build of the game at E3 than what they may have as not to give to much away about the game? one last thing is dont judge a game till its finished i mean everyone has been hyping driv3r and what ever review you read its been getting awfull reviews, so lets wait till the game is finished and you have it sitting in your xbox or ps2 to judge.

i play mk because its fun, not because its got the best fighting engine, i think MKD looks fine, it looks GREAT even! i cant wait for it, and dont say its coz im a fanboy, coz if i dont like something i will say!

also i find it weird that people are calling each other mortal kombat fanboys when we are all posting on a mortal kombat fan site, but hey thats just me.

true.
I think it's looking good but far from complete.

The game's looking fine. It's still only early days though. We've only seen 14 (possibly 15) fighters in action, very little of Konquest, and not that much of Puzzle Kombat. Not to mention all the Fatalities and Death Traps they're holding back.

Just wait until October, people, then all will be revealed, and you will love it. I almost guarantee it.

well midway hasn't said so much yet about mk 6.
we have to wait a little more.
