I wonder is it a button or just the foward double tap that other fighting games use.I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Don't think it was the run button, in an interview it was said that they would not have a run button back. Maybe it's a quick dash with forward, forward or something.

Nooo! :(
In what interview did they say they wont be having the run button back?? a magazine or something? :(

MKDA didnt have foward foward dash. I forgot what MK game did though. Its been years since i last played MK1-MK3. Is it a big difference?? (the run button and the foward dash)

Not in a gameplay sense, but adding a 'run' button would push the amount of buttons used up to 8, which would be quite insane... Especially considering how few moves everyone has. (or, well, had in MKDA at least)

Fuck that. If they put a run button in this game, I will not buy it hands down. The run button killed my MK fun factor. Please GOD no run button. I hope it was a dash forward on the controller instead.

I believe Boon once said he favored the MK3 kombat system because of the run button and the versatility it added with kombos or sumthing of that nature. So who knows?

It could be some kind of dash/bash/kick move that each character has. Different for each character. Maybe a double tap forward. One reason for this is so that your opponent can be thrown into the interactive elements like the windows or the meat grinder.

I imagine its a double dash forward like move by tapping the directional in the appropriate direction, all ver fighting games have had them and its about time MKD had it also.

Well watever it is, i like it. Theres definately a dash button and now that i think of it, theres no run button cuz i didnt see anyone running, but i did notice that they increased speed while fighting. Its lookin good!

Can ya tell me of a fighting game that has a foward foward dash in it?

Yeah, every other fighting game lol. And most have both dashing AND running.

I want it back. It must return since the big levels.

What's so bad about the run button? If there is a run
button, nobody's gonna force you to use it! if you
don't want to!!

Anyone who hates run is scared to be run up on.. or why else would they hate it?

Heh oh yeah.. because you have to press another 'button'

lol!! The run button wasn't THAT bad, dude, lol. Run jabs are REALLY good, lol. I've never liked associating movement to a button, it's just not natural, not logical. Didn't work for me in MK4 nor' VF3.

It's prolly just a double tap. The movement does seam to be a bit better, but from what I saw the SS was still shit. Unless that was simply 8-way doing it's thing. My hopes are not very high for the "Big D," but it is looking to be a bit more ballistic as far as gameplay goes, which is nice.

im guessing sindel has a really good first step and is very quick (kind of like Kung Lao's quick step forward in the Mantis style in MKDA)...im guessing its a dash though.
